From his conversation with Mitchell Thorpe, he are that using this ihtly or without a great deal of experience If he didn’t have ic on his side, Lucan never would have atte Anka very seriously

"I want you to trustthere, unspoken but understood

This pause was longer, but finally she nodded "I do"

"Good" He cracked the whip at his feet, letting the sound fill the bedroom

Anka jolted as if he’d struck her, then she stilled, going into a tre silence The sound scared her, clearly Likely, it brought back terrible memories

"Last chance Grab your robe or tell ers curled into fists, and her body tensed "I’ ed howher And he let her think If she worked this out in her head, she would know that he would never har his ar the bloith hissound for her The leather barely caressed her backside, the popper sliding over her skin like a whisper of a kiss

Slowly, her head turned, and she aze "Lucan?"

"If you trust me, turn around and let me finish"

Without another word, she faced the wall again He repeated the process, grazing the other cheek of her arse with a slow brush Then again And again, never giving heracross her skin With every lash, she relaxed, the tension leaving her shoulders, her fists uncurling He could al, and it filled hioddamn ravenous for her

He planted one last lash in the place he kneould give her pause, the lightest touch yet over her lower back, a glancing sweep across the scars there She stiffened Then the as gone, and she let out a deep breath, all tension draining out

"Do you want ain?" he asked, curious for her reply

"If you wish"

No pleading with hi at her comfort level Just…acceptance and an olive branch of trust

"If I did, do you think I would hurt you?"

"No" Her response was auto toward her and shoving off his jog pants As they hit the floor, he reached Anka and grabbed her thighs "Spread your legs"

Again, she coy scent hit his nostrils,his mouth water and his cock weep Bloody hell, this wole ti around Anka, he took her breasts in his hands and breathed across her neck, then bent his legs and nestled the fat head of his cock right against her slick opening He paused

She whith inside her He pinched her nipples hard to get her attention, and she gasped Then he nipped at her earlobe "Stay still I’m not ready yet I have some questions"

"Hurry," she pleaded

He grabbed a fistful of the glorious blonde curls trailing down her back and yanked at them "Once you’ve answered me, Anka Not before Will you keep your secrets from me anymore?"

"No"

"Will you ever fail to tell ain?"

"No I pro you want to know"

"Do you trust me?"

She nodded "Yes"

Lucan didn’t hesitate; he had to know "Do you love me?"

"I always have"

Her words flowed over hilanced over her shoulder, their gazes fusing, her eyes glossing over with tears "I love you"

Fuck, he couldn’t resist anyripped her hips and, with a roar, thrust in deep inside her

Gasping and scratching at the wall, she cried out his naet instantly wetter

"This is what you wanted all along, isn’t it?"

The flush crept up Anka’s skin She stood, her pussy wet and open as she panted with each and every one of his thrusts She’d surrendered her pleasure entirely to hirant or withhold The poas heady It swelled inside hie to the considerable bliss already thruripped her hip The other he slid between her legs to rub the little needy bundle of nerves, completely hard and desperate for his touch

"Answer rowled in her ear

"Yes I’ve fantasized about feeling the force of your desire and giving you everything…"

And he’d been too gentle to take it before, just as he hadn’t been strong enough to save her or fight for her once upon a tione

He pressed her into the wall, her breasts plastered to the blue paint as he shoved into her like a piston, fast and hard, no stuttering, no respite Just a thorough pounding into the tight fist of her pussy
