hair. "I've never seen curly hair like this.”
"It's not fashionable."
His lips twisted in a sneer that told her what he thought about fashion.
With aggressive features dominated by his broken nose and squared-off chin, and his eyes a solid black, his sneers and scowls were apt to make her quake in fear.
Yet the happy, content thrum in her chest told her she had nothing to fear from him.
His shoulder-length hair stuck out in all directions and his beard had thickened to abrasive bristles over the course of her heat. He appeared to be an untamed beast from the faraway Un.
But the bond connecting them said she had tamed him. He was her monster now.
Taking the male in, she could see evidence of his maturity at his chin where white hairs interspersed with the black. Even her father didn't have gray hair. On one side of his thickly corded neck, the black tattoos on his arm swirled up in a stylized tempest of flames.
Many males came home from their time in the Administration army with tattoos. Her brothers had said they always held meaning, but she couldn't fathom what his meant.
His shoulders looked wide and strong and capable. Below his clavicle sat the neat circle of her mark. She had been reaching for higher. There were other red marks in the area too. She'd nipped and bitten the space whenever it came near her mouth.
His hands roamed her body, touching, possessing, and reaching to clasp her throat. Killing her would be easy for him just with that one hand. He'd hardly have to flex the beefy muscles of his arm.
But murder wasn't on his mind. He tilted her head back a little, fathomless black eyes centered on her lips.
"Fuck. I haven't even properly kissed you, have I?" he asked.
She didn't remember.
"Something to do later." His lips curled up just a little. She thought she saw a dimple wink at her from his cheek. "You hungry, or you want more dick?"
She couldn't help but wince at the word choice.
"Food. Real people food. Please."
"Alright then." He got off the bed to get a tray from nearby while she sat up. Setting it next to him, he motioned to his lap, waiting.
This seemed like something they had done a couple of times. It felt familiar.
He put her in his lap and made it feel good while he gave her water. She was too sore for the good feelings right now. The idea of more made her want to cry, but her body crawled into position, anyway.
"Poor little Naya. You’ve been used so hard, haven't you? You let a monster work you over." He crooned. "I can see you need to eat. You've lost weight, I think."
"I needed to anyway,” she told him.
"And where would you lose it? Those perfect tits? Your plush ass? Fuck no. And don't say your belly. You had a sweet curve there and I want it back. Whoever has told you that you are anything but fuckably perfect is a liar. Probably a beta bitch or some other jealous female. You don't listen to those lies anymore."
He insisted on feeding her a meal of chicken with potatoes in a meaty broth with piles of pickled greens.
She felt dominated and taken care of at the same time. The soup was good, the pickled greens were not, but she ate everything he put in her mouth.
When the tray was empty, he took her throat in that possessive grip again and tipped her head back.
"Every inch of you is beautiful." There was such wonder in his words she couldn't help but smile, happy and embarrassed at the same time. "You have the clearest green eyes I think I've ever seen. Like gems."
He worked his thumb over her cheek, then used it to tap her lips. "A couple of rules, treasure. I know you're not from here. You're in a dangerous world now. You stay in this room unless you are with me. No exceptions. You get me? Say it back to me so I know you understand."
She frowned. The restriction sounded like he planned to keep her jailed. She'd had enough of that.
Tapping her lips again, he made a disapproving sound. "Uh-uh. Non-negotiable. You stay in this room unless you are with me. Say it."
"I stay in this room unless I am with you." Her voice was small, unhappy.
"Good. Every male here is unmated and dangerous. I will protect you, and I will kill them, but that don't mean shit when some of them
