  I would never get tired of hearing her words or the soft inflection when she called my name. Growling, I licked down the length of her neck before raking my teeth across her prickled skin. The mere scent of her was incredible, a mixture of jasmine and exotic spices. I was drunk with the need of her, could never get enough.

  And somehow, she’d broken through every barrier, exposing a man I’d never thought existed.

  As I slipped my cock past her swollen folds, the wetness slickening my aching shaft, I closed my eyes. If only I could give her the world. I wrapped my arms around her, intertwining my fingers with hers as I slid my cock deep inside.

  “Oh. God.” She arched her back, her head lolling against my shoulder, her lips quivering.

  I nipped her earlobe as I pumped in and out, taking my time to savor the rocketing sensations, grinding my hips against her bruised bottom. “With every breath I take, I own you. With every ounce of my being, I will protect you. My wife. The woman I’ve fallen desperately in love with.”

  She trembled, her lovely mouth twisting and for a few seconds, she seemed frozen, as if my words were shocking. “And I love you,” she finally whispered, jutting her hips in a provocative manner.

  I thrust in and out, my actions becoming more like the true beast I’d always been. Forever hungry.

  Forever needing her.

  Commanding her.

  Ravaging her.

  My breath was ragged as I fucked her long and hard, the moment of passion intensified as we both let go.

  “Oh, yes. Yes...” Panting, she arched her back even more, her fingers clenched against mine.

  I’d never felt so close to anyone.

  With every ravaging stroke, every second we spent together, my love only intensified.

  Her pants turned into ragged moans and I could tell she was close to coming.

  “That’s it, baby. Come for me. Come. For. Me.”

  Stephanie smiled in her sly little way, clamping down her pussy muscles, the heat and the extreme wetness overcoming every ounce of control. As she was swept into an orgasm, her body quivering against me, I was forced into one of my own.

  The sensations were powerful.

  The electricity soaring.

  My world perfect.

  Almost...

  I threw my head back, roaring to the very heavens above as she came in wave after wave and all I could think about was filling her with my seed.

  As I pulled her against me, easing us both onto the couch, I wrapped my arms around her. She rubbed the tips of her fingers back and forth, creating another wave of desire. I eased my leg around hers, chuckling at the expression on Zorro’s face.

  I could hear her humming softly, the tune so melodic. When she pushed my arms away, easing off the couch and grabbing the throw from the chair, I stiffened. The woman had been through so much.

  And I had never felt so guilty. I wasn’t certain I could give her what she needed.

  She walked outside, moving toward the railing. I noticed her gaze shifted toward the gun before she concentrated on the ocean water, the lapping waves.

  I’d never felt such extreme sadness, an overwhelming need to crush all those who’d hurt her. My heart remained heavy as I moved into the kitchen, finding the already open bottle of wine and pouring two glasses. I didn’t bother dressing, merely walking outside and inching behind her.

  Sighing, she accepted the glass, taking a sip, her gaze never leaving the turbulent water. “When I went to see my father, I demanded that he tell me everything, exposing all the dirty little secrets I knew that had been kept for so many years. He was thrown by my presence and for the first time that I could remember, I saw actual tears in his eyes.”

  “He loves you. That much I know.”

  “I felt that love, even though he was so... broken. I only wanted a family who cared about me and that day, I realized he always had. I confronted him about my illness. Why the hell wouldn’t he tell me what had happened?”

  “He was trying to protect you,” I said, keeping my voice low.

  “I believe you. He thought he was doing the right thing. But you know...” Her words trailed off, her hand shaking as she took another sip. “I had to know the truth. When he told me that I couldn’t have children, I was shocked. At first, I didn’t believe him then I could tell by his eyes and the tears flowing down his cheeks that he wasn’t lying. I was just so devastated and honestly, the reason had nothing to do with the sect or whatever requirements and rules that had been set in place decades before.”

  Bristling, I pulled her tightly against me, trying to control my breathing, my anger fresh and hot.

  “Then I realized that life would move on. Somehow. Some way. You showed me that love can conquer all, even though it may start out as something else entirely.”

  “You’re right.”

  “Do you really love me?” she asked in such a tentative manner.

  I thought about the question until she sagged against me. “I love you with all my heart. You’re the only person who’s been able to pull me from the darkness and the rage that I’ve felt my entire life.”

  She squeezed my hand, her breath skipping.

  “We can adopt as many children as you’d like.”

  “I’d like that.”

  “And maybe there are other doctors we can see.” Maybe. I’d never felt such helplessness in my life and there was no one to blame.

  “I can’t... I just...” She sobbed once before twisting out of my arms. “Zorro.”

  I allowed her space, shifting to the side and closing my eyes. “I’m so glad you love the puppy.”

  “Very much. Zorro, bring me the special bone.”

  The pup scampered off, barking in happiness.

  If only I could change everything.

  “I don’t want any more violence. I’m afraid of what will happen.”

  “I told you once before,” I managed to say, “that I will keep you safe. What I will do, what I am doing with changes in the sect will be about...” Hell, I couldn’t finish. What the hell was I trying to tell her?

  She twisted in order to face me, her face pensive. “You can’t promise to change the world or stop the danger that will always be around us. I know that. Just promise me that you’ll be the man I see today.”

  “Oh, lady, that much I can swear on my very soul.”

  Smiling, Stephanie touched my face. Not in a sexual manner. Not because of the continued heat building between us.

  But because she believed me.

  I heard the tinkling sounds of Zorro’s collar as he bounded out onto the deck. Swallowing, I finally gave him a look, so happy that he was in our lives.

  She bit her lower lip before pushing me away gently, crouching down in front of him. “What did you bring, daddy dog?”

  I glanced toward the ocean, praying for courage and the salvation I’d been looking for my entire life. Then I swallowed hard before glancing down at the little fur ball. “What do you have, buddy?”

  She backed away from me, taking several steps. When I glanced into her eyes, I noticed tears. “Go on, Zorro. Give it to Daddy.”

  I bent down, taking the prize from his mouth. “What is this?” As I glanced at what I thought was a dog toy, every moment of tension and anger was released. I blinked several times before I understood and at this moment, my entire world was shattered, but in a way I would have never anticipated. “A pacifier?” My legs shaking, I managed to stand.

  Nodding, she gave me a nod before taking tentative steps closer. “My father was wrong. We’re going to have a child.”

  I’d been called many things in my life.

  Sinner.

  Monster.

  Bastard.

  I’d accepted all of them, reveling in the way they made feel, the power that I could wield.

  But all that had changed.

  Today, I was something else entirely.

  Protector.

  Husband.

  Father.

She has known for years that she is destined to belong not just to one savage beast, but to three, and now the time has come for her to be claimed. Soon her mates will own every inch of her beautiful body, and she will be shared and used as roughly and as often as they please.

  Rex Sullivan cannot deny being smitten by Cooper, and the fact that she is in desperate need of his belt across her bare backside only makes the war-hardened ex-Marine more determined to tame the beautiful, fiery redhead.

  Capturing Their Mate

  I thought the Cenzan invaders could never find me here, but I was wrong. Three of the alien brutes came to take me, and before I ever set foot aboard their ship I had already been stripped bare, spanked thoroughly, and claimed more shamefully then I would have ever thought possible.

  They have decided that a public example must be made of me, and I will be punished and used in the most humiliating ways imaginable as a warning to anyone who might dare to defy them. But I am no ordinary breeder, and the secrets hidden in my past could change their world... or end it.

  Ruthless

  Treating a mobster shot by a rival’s goons isn’t really my forte, but when a man is powerful enough to have a whole wing of a hospital cleared out for his protection, you do as you’re told.

  To make matters worse, this isn’t first time I’ve met Giovanni Calduchi. It turns out my newest patient is the stern, sexy brute who all but dragged me back to his hotel room a couple of nights ago so he could use my body as he pleased, then showed up at my house the next day, stripped me bare, and spanked me until I was begging him to take me even more roughly and shamefully.

  Now, with his enemies likely to be coming after me in order to get to him, all I can do is hope he’s as good at keeping me safe as he is at keeping me blushing, sore, and thoroughly satisfied.

  Rogue

  Tracking down cyborgs is my job, but this time I’m the one being hunted. This rogue machine has spent most of his life locked up, and now that he’s on the loose he has plans for me...

  He isn’t just going to strip me, punish me, and use me. He will take me longer and harder than any human ever could, claiming me so thoroughly that I will be left in no doubt who owns me.

  No matter how shamefully I beg and plead, my body will be ravaged again and again with pleasure so intense it terrifies me to even imagine, because that is what he was built to do.

  Roughneck

  When I took a job on an oil rig to escape my scheming stepfather’s efforts to set me up with one of his business cronies, I knew I’d be working with rugged men. What I didn’t expect is to find myself bent over a desk, my cheeks soaked with tears and my bare thighs wet for a very different reason, as my well-punished bottom is thoroughly used by a stern, infuriatingly sexy roughneck.

  Even though I should have known better than to get sassy with a f
irm-handed cowboy, let alone a tough-as-nails former Marine, there’s no denying that learning the hard way was every bit as hot as it was shameful. But a sore, welted backside is just the start of his plans for me, and no matter how much I blush to admit it, I know I’m going to take everything he gives me and beg for more.

  Hunting Their Mate

  As far as I’m concerned, the Cenzans will always be the enemy, and there can be no peace while they remain on our planet. I planned to make them pay for invading our world, but I was hunted down and captured by two of their warriors with the help of a battle-hardened former Marine. Now I’m the one who is going to pay, as the three of them punish me, shame me, and share me.

  Though the thought of a fellow human taking the side of these alien brutes enrages me, that is far from the worst of it. With every searing stroke of the strap that lands across my bare bottom, with every savage thrust as I am claimed over and over, and with every screaming climax, it is made more clear that it is my own quivering, thoroughly used body which has truly betrayed me.

  Dangerous

  I knew Erik Chenault was dangerous the moment I saw him. Everything about him should have warned me away, from the scar on his face to the fact that mobsters call him Blade. But I was drawn like a moth to a flame, and I ended up burnt... and blushing, sore, and thoroughly used.

  Now he’s taken it upon himself to protect me from men like the ones we both tried to leave in our past. He’s going to make me his whether I like it or not... but I think I’m going to like it.

  Primitive

  I was sent to this world to help build a new Earth, but I was shocked by what I found here. The men of this planet are not just primitive savages. They are predators, and I am now their prey...

  The government lied to all of us. Not all of the creatures who hunted and captured me are aliens. Some of them were human once, specimens transformed in labs into little more than feral beasts.

  I fought, but I was thrown over a shoulder and carried off. I ran, but I was caught and punished. Now they are going to claim me, share me, and use me so roughly that when the last screaming climax has been wrung from my naked, helpless body, I wonder if I’ll still know my own name.
