His Rebellious Mate (Primarian Mates Book 3)

by Maddie Taylor

  “Because of the business Kerr sent me to take care of. A skirmish in a nearby village with broken windows, other property damage, and an errant blaster shot started a fire. When we arrived, several buildings were engulfed and the wind had picked up. It got out of control quickly. By the time we contained it and located the miscreants responsible—youngsters in need of firm discipline, believe me—it was near dawn. What you saw as drugged was me waking hard after about two hours of sleep.”

  “You mean I didn’t?”

  He shook his head. “I’ve long since finished the dregs of that bottle with no ill effects.”

  “Maybe it was a dream.” Or perhaps her actions had changed destiny. Either way, she wasn’t a reprehensible person as well as a rapist. She breathed a huge sigh of relief. “At least that’s one sin I won’t carry to my grave.”

  “There is another?”

  “Ram!” She gaped at him. How could he not know? “I mounted you after you said no.”

  “Sweet mate,” he murmured, running his nose alongside hers. “When I said no, I meant I didn’t want our first time and your breaching to occur with my hands bound, with me unable to touch you. Not that I didn’t want it at all.” He drew back again and caught her troubled gaze. “You may have noticed I like to be in control.”

  She blinked at him, somehow keeping from snorting at the oversimplification of his statement.

  He chuckled. “I’ll assume from your silence you have. If I hadn’t wanted you as badly as you did me, do you think I couldn’t have stopped you? My legs were free, a tactical error on your part, little rebel. You’re half my size, short of a knife to my balls, which believe me would have made the breaching impossible, no way could you have taken me against my will. Further, you had changed your mind. I took the choice away when I drove up inside you. If anyone is guilty, it’s me.”

  “That’s insane. I wasn’t the one tied to the bed.”

  “No, but I baited you. Surely you recognized my strategy. For two weeks, I’d been suffering, knowing how wet you got from my kisses and teasing touches, but stubbornly denying yourself, and me. When you climbed on top, and brought me within an inch of paradise, I wasn’t about to let you take it away.”

  She averted her eyes, still unconvinced.

  “I can’t believe you’re still hung up on this after all this time, and me having repeatedly given you my forgiveness. Is it so hard to believe I got off on it?” He moved suddenly, flipping her on her back, his knee parting her legs, at the same time he gripped her wrists in an iron hold as he pinned them above her head. Completely immobilized, with his hard body holding her down, her heart slammed against her chest. “Maybe I should prove how hot it is. Imagine being restrained right here on this bed, arms stretched taut, helpless to resist, while I caress whatever I like with my hands and my mouth, spreading wet kisses all over your delectable body. Then, when I have you wound as tight as a bow string and ready to fuck, I withdraw and leave you wanting. What would you do?”

  “Kill you!” The images he painted so erotic, her nipples drew up tight, and her pussy grew wet from wanting him.

  “It’s a heady feeling, Eryn, to wake and find my mate, the woman predestined to be mine, had bound me to my bed, so ready for me I could taste her desire.” His fingers flexed as he rocked his body, pressing the hard length of his shaft between her legs, letting it glide the length of her slit. “That’s why I fucked you hard, as hard as you rode me, until we both couldn’t think straight. The seduction, if you must call it something, was mutual. Are we finally clear on this, mate?”

  She didn’t get to answer because his mouth came down hard and demanding, sending shivers of desire racing through her. Yet she couldn’t shake her long-held self-loathing and remorse.

  “My regret about your breaching is not being able to touch you like I wanted. But having you above me, drenched and squeezing me tight as you rode me to climax, was a fantasy come to life.”

  “Ram, you were furious.”

  “I was angry at you for being hardheaded, infuriatingly so,” he insisted with resurging impatience. “And for denying we were mates, but most of all for leaving me. Not for the breaching. I’d have to be dead not to want you, Eryn.”

  Holy crap, Lana had called it.

  “You said maes eternium, the magic words,” she repeated in awe. “Despite your anger, you knew.”

  “Yes, and do you know what it proves?”

  “That we were meant to be?”

  “Always, little rebel, but it also means in the future, you must listen to your mate because, like in this nearly catastrophic instance, he’s always right.”

  Just as she’d always claimed, and just as exasperating. She made a face at the supreme arrogance of his remark.

  “Eryn.”

  She lifted her gaze to him, meeting gold, gleaming with intensity.

  “You should also listen when he tells you to hush, so he can kiss you like he’s been trying to do for what seems like an eternity.”

  Eryn couldn’t have said more if she’d wanted to. With his hand cupping her chin and holding her still, his mouth covered hers, his tongue delving inside to swirl, caress, and rob her of speech. Without hesitation, she gave herself up to his passion.

  Moments later, Ram paused. “The day in the forest, when the Maker brought you to me—my mate, my love, my perfect match from clear across the universe who would be forever mine—that was the real magic, little rebel.”

  Neither spoke further, no more words were necessary. As the air in the room filled with moans of pleasure, breathy sighs, and cries of fulfillment, they renewed the bond that would keep them forever together, as loving, devoted fated mates.

  About the Author

  A USA Today and #1 international bestselling author, Maddie is a lifelong reader who became a romance junkie as a teen with her first romance novel, The Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen Woodiwiss. From then on, she was hooked, and gobbled up everything she could get her hands on, whether contemporary, historical, paranormal, or sci-fi. If there was romance to be found between a strong alpha male, and a sassy, adventurous and oft-times defiant yet loving woman, Maddie was all over it. As an author, she stays true to those themes writing steamy erotic romance, with a side of kink, and adding elements of intrigue, danger, and suspense to her plots.

  * * *

  Maddie started writing as a hobby. Her stories stayed private while she raised a family and worked full time as a registered nurse. It wasn’t until 2012 that she decided to take the plunge and submit her first book for publication: Captain My Captain. She went on to publish eleven novels the first year.

  * * *

  She’s still juggling writing with her day job.
You’ll find her working at her laptop into the wee hours of the morning, or scribbling plot ideas into the notebook she always keeps handy, and working out the details of a scene while floating around in her pool with a lemon drop in hand. Don’t be surprised if you see her pulling over on the side of the road searching frantically for pen and paper to capture an idea for a scene that popped into her mind, because as Maddie says, her best ideas always come when her hands are full or if there isn’t a pen in a five-mile radius.
