in. Like it could possibly make up for the fact that I abandoned my father’s legacy.” His eyes dipped like he couldn’t bear to look me in the eye at that confession.

“You didn’t abandon them, Cy,” I promised, keeping my voice steady as I got up to reposition my body. Straddling his hips, I sunk down before cupping his cheeks in my hands, forcing him to stare back at me. “You did the best you could, given the circumstances. You’re going to save the damn empire, Cyler Black. You’re gonna lead the masses. We just have to get settled and deal with the cure first.”

Cyler leaned forward and kissed me again, pressing his lips to mine with such passion that I almost couldn’t feel the soft tears trailing down his cheeks. It broke me to feel his pain. So I did the only thing I knew to do, I kissed him so hard that he wouldn’t feel anything but my body and my love. Moaning into his mouth, I shifted my hips forward, preening when I felt his hard erection straining against his pants. Trailing my fingers down his shirt, I gripped the bottom of the tattered cotton fabric and inched it up, breaking our kiss only to remove the material that kept us separated.

He deepened the kiss once my lips fastened themselves back to his, licking my bottom lip as if asking if he could taste me. It was sweet and sensual but demanding, too. Parting my lips, he then sucked on my mouth, gnawing at my plump flesh like it was a tasty treat. “Babe, you’re the best thing to ever happen to me,” he said in a breathless tone before grabbing the collar of Huxley’s shirt I was still wearing, and ripping it down the center. I smiled.

“Huxley’s going to be pissed that you ruined his shirt,” I said while reaching behind me to unclasp my bra. Cyler kept his hands on my hips to steady me while I gazed into his dark eyes, which were no longer full of sadness.

“Huxley can fuck off,” Cyler growled in response, his words taking on a possessive tone that made me hum in appreciation. I wanted our group dynamic to work—more than anything—but there was something to be said for being uncontrollably desired.

The moment my breasts were free, Cyler’s hands flew to grab them, pinching my nipples as he dove in for another kiss. I could feel myself getting hot with each stroke of his tongue and move of his fingers. “Cyler,” I pleaded while grinding against him for relief. It wasn’t enough. I needed more.

Without having to ask, Cyler stood up. I wrapped my thighs around his waist, determined to keep contact with his body. I didn’t want an inch to separate us for even a second. He carried me to the pallet on the floor then laid us both down. The moment my back hit the mattress, I arched my hips, wordlessly begging him to take my trousers off.

“You’re so beautiful, Babe,” he said, his voice reverent as he eased my pants off my trembling legs with precision. I felt his rough fingers scrape along my thighs, lingering just outside my pussy before slinking them down further. Once my pants were gone, he tore my panties from my body with one fell swoop, baring me entirely to him as I lie on the pallet.

“Mine, for now. Tell me you’re just mine for a minute, Babe. I need to feel like I own your body and heart for a little while,” he pleaded while kissing a trail up my legs all the way to my stomach. Looking up at me, he paused before licking my breast.

“I’m yours, Cyler Black. I’m completely yours,” I said in a whisper, and he rewarded me with a flick of his tongue and careful kneading of my breasts. I wrapped my legs around his hips, guiding him closer to my entrance as he seared another kiss to my lips. He tasted like crisp mint.

I loved this man. I loved the way our bodies seemed to fit perfectly. I loved how instinctually we acted, like kissing him was as natural as breathing. Darting my tongue out, I devoured Cyler Black with everything I had, arching up once more to encourage him to fill me up.

While holding himself up with one hand, he led his index finger down to my core and ran a line up my slit, smiling against my lips in satisfaction when he
