Persephone is the picture of confusion. “I wasn’t hungry.”
“Liar.” It’s nothing to carry her back out to the main room, put her on her feet, and bend her over the tray. “You’re starving. You just don’t know it.”
“I was reading.” Her voice shakes. “I meant to come finish it.”
“When I tell you to finish something, you do it first, sweetheart, or you’ll suffer the consequences.”
A shiver rocks her under my hand, electric, and she murmurs something into the pomegranate.
“I can’t hear you.”
“Please.”
Her voice rings like a bell through the room, and that’s all it takes. I thought I was undone before. That was nothing compared to now. I force her down onto her knees and rip her clothing to shreds. Indiscriminate. It doesn’t matter what it is; I want her skin exposed to me now. Her perfect pink nipples are already peaked, her thighs spread—she wants this. Fuck me. She wants it as much as she hates it.
The pomegranate next.
I rip it apart in my hands, the two halves glistening in my palms, and drop most of it back to the table. Persephone’s chest heaves with every breath. She has relatively small tits, but they’re a nice shape, and they’ll be even nicer covered in the juice from the pomegranate. It shears apart easily in my hands.
She doesn’t struggle when I take her chin in my hand and tip her head back. She looks up at me with her huge, depthless gaze. Her lips are slightly parted. I work a thumb between her teeth and force them open farther.
“Eat.”
