“That’s not what I mean and you know it. Sit up.”
“What do you want?” she says but she does as I ask, crawling up onto her knees on my legs. “Shit!” she shrieks when I throw her over my shoulder.
“Judas, what the hell are you doing now?” she wails, her fingers scrabbling at my back.
“Stop that!” I swat her ass and she squawks, her head raising on my shoulder.
“Did you just spank me?”
“Not yet. That was just a swat. Trust me, if you ever piss me off enough, you’ll know it when I spank you. I’ll have your ass red with my handprints.”
“Caveman,” she grunts. But I can feel her heart speed up, thudding like a wild thing against my skin.
“You like it, babydoll.”
“I do not.”
“Go ahead and tell yourself that.”
“I will. I’m not into rough stuff, Judas.”
“I would never be too rough with you. But you’re not a shrinking violet, Brandy. Don’t try and tell me that you don’t like it. I felt your heart race when I told you what I’m going to do if you don’t behave.”
“That was fear.”
I snort and swat her ass again. “Keep lying to me and I really will tan your ass.”
I climb the stairs and open the door to my room with the palm reader. “Seriously? Do you have any actual keys for this place?”
“Of course not! My company designs this kind of stuff. I’m not going to have a regular lock when my own company’s tech is so much safer.”
I throw her on the bed and grin wildly when she scrabbles to the middle of the bed, her eyes wide, staring around the room.
“Navy blue and silver? The other room was the same.”
“All the rooms are the same.” I start unbuttoning my shirt quickly, stripping it off of my bare chest and chuckling under my breath when her greedy eyes never leave the exposed skin. “They’re your favorite colors. This whole house was designed and decorated just for you.”
She gasps and hazel eyes wing to mine, her lashes fluttering. “You’re crazy? That’s it. I’m in love with a crazy man.”
“You love me? You said it.” I rip my clothes off even faster, watching those eyes drop to my steel-hard shaft as she licks her lips nervously. Growling, I clamber onto the bed and stalk up her body, lavishing it with kisses as I tear at her clothes like a wild man.
“I didn’t say that!” she gasps. Her hands fist on my shoulders, her nails sinking into my skin, branding me with her marks. I throw my head back, hissing at the pain, loving it at the same time.
“You can’t take it back. It’s out there. I heard it. You love me. You’re mine. I’m going to marry you and breed you and protect you for the rest of our lives.” I fall down onto her body, feeling the wild need for her unleashed.
My lips kiss every inch of pale, smooth skin that I uncover. Sucking, nipping, biting at her.
“I want to mark you just like you’ve marked me, baby girl.” She gasps and her hands flutter on my shoulders before she slides them down my body, cupping my bare ass, digging those talons of hers in like spurs on a cowboy.
I roar and grind my aching cock against her soft core. Her head falls back and my lips run up and down the delicate column of her throat, finding the soft spot behind her ear and then running down to suckle her breasts.
“Oh my god, Judas! Please, don’t stop!” she cries out, her restless hips chasing mine.
“I’m never going to stop. I’m going to make love to you every damn day. It’s going to become my new favorite thing. I have to have it.”
My tongue delves between her breasts as I plump them up in my hand, teasing one side then the other before biting at the soft mounds and the diamond tips.
“Judas,” she whines, her long legs locking around my back.
