I watch with fisted hands as the man fucks her mouth. She relaxes soon enough - I taught her well. I watch until the man spurts, pulling out just in time to spray the front of her dress with his seed.
She cries out, once, twice. I soon realize it's my name she's saying. She needs me.
This time I step forward. She faces me as I pull off my mask. I click my fingers and the rest of my men step out from the audience. Pandora whimpers, crawling close to me, and I pet her hair as she kneels next to me, looking down into her tear-streaked face.
"I'm sorry, Master," she whispers. "I didn't want to..."
"You did exactly what I wanted you to do," I tell her calmly. "I'm proud of you, toy."
A nervous, uncertain smile pulls her lips upward. She's so pretty like this. Used, almost breaking, desperate.
"There's one more task ahead of you," I say. "See these men?"
She looks at the three other figures, nodding.
"You know who they are?"
She glances at me before nodding again. I nod for the men to take their masks off. The rest of the audience watches from behind their disguise, but Pandora can see Easton, Julian and Caspian clearly now.
"Your last challenge is here," I say, tugging on her hair and making her look back at me.
"What is it, Master?"
I don't answer. With another click of my fingers, masked figures bring forth a bed. They set it down in the middle of the room. I lift Pandora from the floor and gently lay her down on the sheets. Her trusting eyes don't falter. I know she wants this. I know she'll take it, whatever it is, because she wants to prove something - that she's mine.
"We're going to fuck you now," I tell her. "The four of us. You get to pick who goes where."
She pushes herself up on her elbows. I expect fear, but her eyes sparkle with mischief instead. Little fucking slut. She's loving this almost as much as I am.
"Caspian and Julian in my hands," she speaks up after a moment's thought. "Easton in my mouth. And you, Master. I want you in my pussy."
I smirk. The audience is watching. They want a show, and I'm more than willing to give it to them.
I pull out a knife from my boot and approach Pandora. She stares at me defiantly, not frightened at all.
She keeps her eyes fixated on mine as I slice through her designer dress. I strip her, roughly pulling on her lace panties until they tear. All she has on now is a corset that ends right beneath her breasts. Her tits are free, her nipples deliciously hard, and her waist is tiny.
"Are you going to fight me this time, toy?" I whisper in her ear, loud enough for just the two of us. "You know I fucking love it when you do."
We smile at each other as I pull back, and order the guys to take their positions. Just like she wanted - Easton, Caspian and Julian above me, and me watching them all. She knows me so well. My cock swells with pride.
"Cocks out," I grunt and the guys do as I tell them. My gaze is focused on Pandora until she turns her head to the side. Her mouth is full now, and she's eating up like a good girl while her palms jerk off my best friends.
I'm stroking my cock too, unable to resist how fucking sexy she looks being used like this. I push my cockhead against her wet pussy lips, making her kick those long legs.
I grab them by the ankles, placing them on my shoulders as I push inside her. I make sure to go painfully slow, knowing she needs me faster, rougher. But I'm going to make her finish off all the others before me. Because I'm the one who gets to take her home tonight. Her first, and her motherfucking last.
"Spread your legs, toy," I order her, and her trembling thighs part to allow me deeper into her silky folds. She mewls out in pleasure and I allow her to feel my cock throb from nothing but the sensation of being inside her. "God fucking damn it, Pandora, you feel good."
I begin to fuck her, keeping my eyes wide open to see everything she'll endure for me. The guys are groaning with pleasure. Half the audience have their dicks out, some have already emptied their loads. It's a fucking orgy. An orgy specifically designed for my toy, so she can admit once and for all what she really is.
That moment is fast approaching, and I smirk knowing tonight, there are no limits.
And she asked for this, asked to be broken.
I'll more than enjoy giving it to her.
Chapter Nineteen
Pandora
My mind is spinning. My holes are full. I'm so very close to an earth-shattering orgasm I can barely breathe. My body aches and arches for the man controlling my pleasure and my pain. Dexter Booth, my bully, the father of my son, the one I was meant to be with.
There's no fooling me - I know he's doing this for himself. He wants the sick satisfaction of watching me please all these men. He wants to punish me for sleeping with his friends. He wants to put me in my place, and I'm going to let him. Because at the end, Dexter Booth will be forced to admit the thing he's afraid of most.
That he loves me.
I close my eyes tightly, sucking on the cock in my mouth, hands vigorously massaging the two hard dicks in them. Dexter fucks me slowly, building up the tension until it's excruciating.
"Fuck, baby, I'm close." Caspian groans and I realize that's all the warning I'm going to get as he sprays his seed all over me.
"Fucking... shit!" Julian's next, pushing my hand away and jerking his cock all over my chest.
I'm somehow still breathing, somewhere on the verge of tears and an orgasm.
"Dex," I whisper. "Dex, I want yours now, please."
"Aren't you forgetting something?" Easton pulls my mouth back to his cock, forcing my lips to close around his thickness. "Fucking suck, you little slut. Suck me until I burst."
I whimper and cry, but he doesn't let up and Dexter makes no move to stop him. I realize he's going to burst soon, his cock pulsating in my mouth and threatening to spill everything down my throat. With Easton, the only warning I get are his hands on either side of my head, holding me in place with his cock deep in me as he shoots rope after rope of cum into my mouth. I want to scream, but my mouth is too full.
Easton finally pulls out, and his cum spills out of my mouth and on the floor. I sputter before turning to face Dex. He's smirking at me, and everyone else steps back, leaving just the two of us in the center of the room. I hear others starting to come, men cursing and grunting as they bring themselves to an orgasm. But I don't care about any of it. I'm solely focused on Dexter, who's driving himself inside me with punishing, deep thrusts.
"Come with me, toy," he demands. "On the count of three. One..."
I cry out loud, unsure how I'll get close enough so fast, when his finger suddenly finds my clit while he fucks me. I'm crying out for a different reason now, and Dex laughs out loud as he listens to my desperate pleas.
"Two."
I'm screaming at that point, so close to an orgasm my eyes are rolling back.
"Three." The word is nothing but a growl, and we come together the second it rolls off Dexter's tongue. He grabs my ass and doesn't let go, holding me on top of his cock, watching my pussy take his load as he brings me to a soul-changing orgasm with both his cock and his fingers.
It takes me a long moment to realize the moaning I'm hearing is mine. Dex's eyes never left mine, but for a moment, I was totally out of it, lost in a world of pleasure where only we existed.
He made me forget, I realize with a sharp pang to my chest. I forgot about Reign.
Not knowing whether I should be ashamed or grateful, I let out a sob. The audience begins to draw back, opening the space for us. Dexter embraces me, holding me on his lap, stroking my hair as I fight back tears. Whether they're happy or sad, I may not ever know.
"It's not over," he whispers in my ear. "Come on, toy."
He helps me off the bed and I kneel next to him, expectantly looking up into his eyes.
"You remember when you first came here, Pandora?" Dex speaks slowly, gently. It's so unlike him I knit my brows together in worry. "How wild you were? How much you
resisted me, us? Do you remember how much you hated my nickname for you? How fucking upset you got when I called you toy?"
I nod wordlessly, my gaze glued to his.
"You're going to admit that's what you are," Dex finishes.
"I..." I glare at him. "I don't want to."
My heart picks up pace. I'm not a toy, and his words have pissed me off. I've fought this entire time I've been in Eden Falls. I'm going to keep fighting until I change this town. But Dex wants me to admit I'm nothing. Nothing but a plaything.
"We're not leaving until you do," Dex grits out. "I hope you like kneeling, because you're not getting up until you do, either."
My bottom lip wobbles as he kneels down next to me. He looks into my soul as he runs his fingers over my cheek.
"Is it really so hard?" he asks softly. "You just have to say the words. Admit it. And I'll be yours. You'll be mine. Forever."
This is his price, then.
Dexter's dominant side has won out. He wants me to admit his ownership of me here, in front of all these people.
I wouldn't do it for anybody else.
But for Dexter Booth, I'll do anything.
"I'm a toy," I whisper as he laughs in my face, triumphant. "Your toy, Master. Nothing but a toy."
"Go on," he demands. Somehow, the words seem easier now. They drip from my lips like honey. Sweet. Thick. Heavy.
"I'm Master's toy," I whisper. "I'll never be anything but a toy."
"My toy," Dex mutters proudly. There's a moment of silence as we stare into each other's eyes. There's no need for words anymore.
With a click of his fingers, Dexter signals the night is over. The men leave in hushed tones, slowly emptying the banquet hall. I wait, holding my breath until the door closes behind the last guest, and it's just Dexter, me and the overwhelming tension between us.
"Was that so hard?" he asks.
"Not for you," I whisper. "Are we still going through with the plan?"
"A month from now," Dex nods. "Eden Falls will never be the same."
***
1 month later
Today is the day everything's going to change.
The future of Eden Falls lies in my hands and it's up to me to make things better for everyone.
I'm nervous and scared as I put on the finishing touches before Dexter and I leave for the celebration. He lingers in the door frame as I put on my earrings, watching me with approval.
"You ready for this?"
"As ready as I'll ever be," I mutter, clipping the earring on. I get up from the chair and approach him, and Dex leaves a sweet kiss on my lips before leading me out of the house.
Every year, there is a celebration for the founding day of Eden Falls. One of the founding families hosts the event, and this time, it's Dexter's turn. The Manor has been decorated and prepared to accept hundreds of guests. It's a big event, and it's even more important because tonight, everything could change. I just need to go through with the plan.
We join the droves of guests filling the garden and ground floor of the house. We mingle and talk, and every time I feel nervous, I find Dexter's eyes in the crowd, his cool attitude reassuring me. I do my best to collect myself so I can be ready for the speeches that will happen at dusk. Mine will be the most important one of the night.
The people I talk to are careful around me. They know I'm important, but they're also treating me like I'm a breakable porcelain doll. There's no mention of Reign or Lily Anna. The elephant in the room remains unnoticed. Nobody brings up the tragedy that changed my life. Perhaps that's why I yearn to hold my son in my hands so much. This event is a tradition - a tradition I wanted Reign to be a part of.
My hopes of finding him will never die. I'll look for him until the day I die. And I've given up on despair. All that's left is a small glimmer of hope - that Reign is okay. That the bitch took care of him and made sure he made it through his first month as a baby. That we'll get him back some day, somehow.
There's no time for those thoughts, though, not with dusk fast approaching. As the sky begins to darken, I climb the stage that's been set up in the Manor's garden. Everyone goes quiet as I stand in front of the microphone. I wonder what they think of me now. The outsider will always be just that, no matter how expensive their jewelry, their outfit. I'll always stand out in Eden Falls. But if I do things right, I won't be worse off because of it. I'll make these people respect me if it's the last thing I do.
"Dear Eden Falls," I address the crowd. The murmurs die down, and all their attention is on me now. I should be nervous, but instead I feel a jolt of electric adrenaline shooting up my spine, telling me I'm ready as I'll ever be. "We've gathered to celebrate the town's thirty-second anniversary today. Eden Falls isn't just our home. It's a place of tradition."
I pull out the manual I've been ignoring since I got here while the crowd stares on.
"You're all familiar with this. This manual has dictated everyone's lives, your status, your fortune in this town. Today, that's going to change."
A shocked whisper takes over the crowd as I open the manual to the page Lily Anna marked for me all that time ago. At least the bitch did something right.
"Here it is. Clause eighteen, paragraph C." I show them the manual. "It says the first child born to one of the Firstborns of the town holds the power to change Eden Falls. And until the child turns eighteen, the parents are in charge of making the big decisions."
My eyes meet Father's in the front row. His expression is thunderous - he's hating this. His hands have formed fists. I bet he's wishing he could rewrite that manual now.
"Things are going to change around here," I say next, smiling at the crowd's nervous stares. "I came here and was labeled the outsider right away, despite my status. I was hurt, bullied and taken advantage of by people I trusted. I thought long and hard about getting my revenge on the people who made my life a living hell when I came to Eden Falls."
My gaze finds them one by one. The boys. Dex. Father. Even Brazen.
"But by seeking vengeance on the people who hurt me, I'd be as bad as they are. Instead, I'm going to change this town once and for all. Eden Falls as you knew it is gone. Things are going to be different now. Things are going to change."
I pull out a lighter. It's Dexter's father's, custom-made and engraved. I thought it would be symbolic, and Dex allowed me to use it for this. My eyes find his in the crowd and he smiles, giving me a barely perceptible nod. I open the lighter and hold the manual close to the flame. The crowd gasps.
"The manual is no longer something you must follow," I speak up. "Today, Eden Falls goes up in flames. Because the only way to change this place is to burn its traditions to the ground, until they're ash and dust."
Flames engulf the manual. I watch with satisfaction as it burns. The crowd is shocked, unable to utter a single word as they watch the fruit of their decades-long effort burn to a crisp.
"It's time for a new Eden Falls," I say as the manual crumbles into ash and the flames die down. "It's time for a new ruler. The future is mine, and I'm inviting you to take my hand and make this town a safer, better place for all. Not just the ones born with a silver spoon in their mouth."
With those words, I find Minnie in the crowd. She's working as a busser today, but her bright smile tells me exactly what I need to know - that I'm doing the right fucking thing.
"Goodbye, old traditions." I grin widely. "Hello, new world."
Chapter Twenty
Dexter
I watch my woman on that stage with pride. She's brave, beautiful and fearless. Everything I knew she was from the start. But now she has finally embraced the power this town unwillingly gave her. Eden Falls needs a strong leader, and Pandora is just that. She's going to bring these men to their knees and prove once and for all the future is female. The future is her.
"The Firstborn system is abolished," she speaks up from the stage. "There will be no more ranking in Eden Falls."
Shocked whispers take over the crowd, but w
hen Pandora slams her fist on the podium, everyone shuts up. It pleases me. People have accepted her. Everyone knows her word is law now, and Eden Falls couldn't have a better leader than my toy. She's going to change this town for good, and for the better.
"Everyone is worth the same," she goes on.
"Wait just a damn minute here." The audience's attention snaps to Julian's father who's seething with anger as he stares Pandora down. "You think you can do this? You think you can turn this town on its head? You obviously haven't read that manual very well, little girl. There's a little more to the rules than what you've described."
"Oh, I know." Pandora offers him a brilliant smile. "I need six votes from the founding families. One from each family, so I can do this."
"And you actually believe you'll get those?" Her father scoffs, speaking up from the first row. "Nobody will vote for this, Pandora. This was a cute little display, but it's fucking over now. Get off that stage, girl."
My blood runs cold, the desire to knock the bastard out cold almost too strong to resist. But Pandora merely smiles at him.
"Why don't we see if you're right?" she speaks up. "Let's take a vote, right here, right now."
"Let's," Emilian replies icily. "I'll enjoy seeing you go down in flames, daughter. It's time this farce ended."
"Six votes," she goes on as if he hasn't spoken at all, pissing him off further. "Six founding families. Oakes. Booth. Brantley. Fox. Hawkins. Jenkins."
"And you think you'll get six?" Emilian laughs at his daughter.
"She has my vote." I step forward to the stage with Pandora and she smiles gratefully.
"Of course," Emilian hisses. "She's got you pussy whipped pretty well there, Booth."
"She has my vote too." Julian stands up now, ignoring his father's glare as he joins us on the stage. She has the Fox's vote.
