~ RONAN ~
The sight before me knocks the breath straight out of my lungs. I stop dead in the doorway, keys still dangling from my fingers, every thought in my head vanishing in an instant.
Roselle is lying on our bed like a goddess sent to ruin me,wearing the most sinful red lace lingerie I’ve ever seen. Exposing her every curve, barely covering anything. Her thighs pressed together, smooth and creamy, glowing under the soft evening light.
The way she’s positioned, slightly arched, one knee bent, makes my cock harden instantly, throbbing with sudden, urgent need.
Kael prowls loudly inside my head, a deep, feral growl vibrating through my chest.
Ours. Claim. Now.
My eyes trail slowly upward, drinking her in. Her full breasts strain against the sheer lace bra, her nipples pebbled and visibly hard, begging for my mouth. Her fiery red hair spills loose around her shoulders and across the pillow like silk. Her cheeks are flushed that perfect innocent shade of pink, the same blush she gets when she’s shy but aching for me.
"Rose..." My voice comes out rough, almost a growl.
She bites her lower lip, looking up at me through her lashes, equal parts nervous and seductive. The sight sends a fresh wave of heat straight to my groin. My dick strains painfully against my pants, already leaking, the knot at the base beginning to swell with raw, primal hunger.
I kick the door shut behind me and stalk toward the bed, my eyes never leaving her body.
"What are you..." The question dies in my throat when my eyes zero in on what lies right beside her: velvet-lined, a small suede flogger with its soft tails, a pair of silver nipple clamps with their connecting chain, and a ruby-red jeweled butt plug.
Someone has been raiding my closet.
"Surprised? I found these in your closet... and then I figured maybe we could spice things up..." she says, sounding nervous and so fucking innocent.
My hands rake through my hair as I let out a deep sigh. Does she even know what any of it is? What it’s actually used for?
Of course I’m a fool, who leaves toys like this accessible in the closet?
I walk over and sit on the edge of the bed. Her beautiful hazel eyes lock onto mine, full of nervous excitement. Even though every rational part of me intended to pack those things away, I find my hands cupping her jaw instead, thumbs stroking her flushed cheeks as I stare deep into her eyes.
"Do you know what they’re used for, baby?" I ask, my voice low and rough with barely contained desire.
She bites her lip again, a shy little smile playing at the corners of her mouth.
"I... I have an idea," she whispers, her cheeks turning an even deeper shade of pink. "I want you to show me, Ronan. I want you to use them on me."
Fuck.
Kael howls in triumph inside my head.
I lean in slowly, brushing my lips against hers in a teasing kiss before pulling back just enough to look at her again.
"You have no idea what you’re asking for, Rose," I murmur, my thumb tracing her bottom lip.
"I..."
Is this part of her hormones? The aftermath of her heat still messing with her?
I lift her hands to my lips and kiss her knuckles tenderly. "I love you for you, Roselle. I love every moment we share. You don’t need me to taint you..."
"I do, Ronan," she cuts in, her voice steady despite the flush on her cheeks. The resolve in her tone sends a shiver down my spine. "And I do know what I’m asking for... Taint me."
What in heaven’s name is going on?
I search her eyes, looking for any sign of hesitation or uncertainty. All I find is heat, trust, and a hunger that mirrors my own. My sweet, innocent bride, the woman who once blushed at a mere kiss, is now lying here in red lace, surrounded by my toys, asking me to ruin her.
Kael is practically rabid.
A low growl rumbles in my chest as I lean closer, my hand sliding down to grip her hip possessively.
"You want me to taint you?" I whisper against her lips, voice dark and dangerous. "You want me to clamp these pretty nipples until you’re whimpering? Flog this perfect ass until it’s pink and sensitive? Push that pretty red plug inside you while I fuck you senseless?"
I nip at her bottom lip, then soothe it with my tongue.
"Be very sure, baby. Because once I start... I won’t stop until you’re a sobbing, dripping, knotted mess begging for mercy."
My hand slides between her thighs, feeling how soaked the lace already is.
"Tell me again," I demand softly, eyes locked on hers. "Tell me you want this."
I wait, heart pounding, every muscle in my body coiled tight with restraint and raw need.
Her head arches backward, exposing the elegant line of her throat as a low, husky moan escapes her lips.
"I do, Ronan..." she breathes, voice trembling with need. "Ruin me. Taint me, big bad Alpha..."
