Tempting Rever (7 page)

She went limp when the last tremor passed through her and then became aware of her surroundings slowly. Rever was breathing really hard, her feet weren’t on his shoulders anymore to stop her body from sliding down the building, and it was Rever’s hand cupping her pussy holding her in place now where she was pinned on the slanted 33

roof. She opened her eyes to see Rever’s face was inches above hers, hovering there, looking turned-on with a wild look in his eyes.

“Tell me no.” He growled the words at her in a deep, raspy voice.

Confused, she frowned. “To what?”

He looked down between their bodies, only about foot of space separating them.

She followed the direction of what held his attention and shock hit her seeing that Rever’s pants were torn open, his cock was hard and thick again, straight out and hovering inches above her pussy that he was gripping gently with his cupped hand over it. Her gaze flew up to meet his.

“Tell me no,” he snarled again. “Tell me to back away from you, Brenda. You tempt me too much. You have cried out for me to fill you.” He panted. “Tell me no or I will fill you with my seed. I can’t bound to you and I know it’s wrong but I want to still claim you. Tell me to get away because I have no control when it comes to you so I need you to refuse me. I would never take you by force.”

She licked her lips. She tempted him? “Oh, to hell with it. Take me. Please? I’ll beg if you want but take me. I just want you even if it’s only this once, Rever. Please?”

Rever’s eyes shut and he moved his hand away from her pussy. Her body started to slide down the roof again. She reached up, gripping his shoulders to stop from sliding to the ground about four feet from where she was. Rever’s eyes jerked opened.

“Spread for me, spread wide and take me.”

Rever’s hands gripped her hips, lifting her higher so their hips lined up. Brenda didn’t hesitate to follow his orders, spreading herself wider, lifting her legs to wrap around his hips that moved closer. His body was hot against her calves as she locked them around his leather-clad hips. He was so hard that he didn’t need to guide himself to her.

A moan tore from Brenda as the thick head of his cock brushed the entrance of her pussy when he slowly pressed against her. She felt her body resist the thick intrusion but Rever pressed harder, albeit gently. Her body gave to the unyielding strength of the turned-on Zorn male with a rock-hard cock and he pushed into her body.

A moan tore from their lips as Rever filled Brenda, stretching her, causing pleasure for both of them. Her nails dug into his shoulders as she threw her head back letting out a loud moan of pure ecstasy.

“Yes. You feel so damn good,” she cried out.

“Lord of the Moons,” he groaned, sinking balls deep inside the tightest, hottest, softest part of pleasure he’d ever experienced. “You are the one for me.”

She was experiencing those emotions too, the sense of being made for each other, and it made her think he was the one she’d waited for all of her life. Rever opened his eyes and so did Brenda, their gazes locking, staying that way, as Rever withdrew a few inches. He pushed forward slowly, stretching her and Brenda moaned loudly again in pure pleasure, assured that no one had ever made her feel the way he did.

“You are so tight and I don’t want to hurt you but I want you so badly. I want to pound into you.”

“Do it. I think I’m adjusted. Fuck, you’re big but it feels so damn good. I assumed it might hurt but you don’t go as deep as I thought you might. I feel stretched and full and every motion you make feels amazing. Fuck me, Rever. Please, just fuck me.”

“I couldn’t stop to save either of us right now.” He started to move in deep, hard thrusts.

Brenda moaned, her legs locking around Rever’s hips, clinging to just him since she didn’t have anything else to hang onto. All she could do was feel as Rever totally controlled every movement their bodies made together. His powerful hips increased speed, slamming against her harder, and bliss tore through Brenda. She gasped, the climax hitting her by surprise and then she threw her face into his neck, screaming out from the intensity of how strongly she came. Inside she felt herself flooding with her release and muscles going into wild spasms as she came and came while he fucked her harder still.

Rever threw his head back, a roar tearing from his mouth and he started to jerk in tight movements against her. Inside Brenda she felt his cock pump, a strong heartbeat feeling inside her pussy and then he was coming. She could feel jet after jet of strong semen shooting inside her, his release almost violent, and then he suddenly collapsed on her.

They were locked together, both stunned, and both trying to catch their breath. She held him, wrapping her arms around him tightly, not even caring that his immense weight nearly crushing her made it hard for her to breathe. Dread hit her as reality sank in with the aftermath of their passion.

Brenda knew instinctively that as soon as she released Rever, he would withdraw not only from her body but from her emotionally. He was bound to that bitch Tina and he was a good man. He wouldn’t just kick the bitch out even though Tina didn’t deserve him, Rever was honorable.

He’d probably tear himself up over guilt of what he and Brenda had shared together in that alley. It almost broke her heart as pain sliced through her. Life wasn’t fair and it hurt. She wanted to be with Rever but he wasn’t available to give her that option.

“I tried to pull out,” he spoke softly against her neck, his voice sounding a little shaky and sad. “I filled you up but I could not stop myself. I knew it would be like this.

I knew it.” He shivered. “What have we done? What have I done?”

“Rever—”

“Don’t try to take my burden of guilt. I am a warrior and yet I could not fight how much I want you.” He growled, resting his face against her neck. “We must go to the medical center now. There is a shot you must take that will make sure I did not get you with offspring.”

Shock hit her. “But—”

“No,” he snarled against her neck. “I brought Tina here and I am stuck with her.

Accidents happen and if you get a shot within an hour they can prevent my seed from taking root. We must go there to confess what I did so they give you the medicine.”

Shutting her eyes, Brenda nodded but pain hit her hard. She wanted Rever, wanted more than she could ever have with him, and it hurt. She was falling in love with him and he wouldn’t consider being with her.

Taking a deep breath, he slowly withdrew from her body, pulling away from her, and carefully eased her onto her feet. She felt wetness sliding down both of her thighs but she didn’t have anything to clean up with. Rever moved back, pulling his pants closed and then reached for the forgotten backpack to yank out one of her new shirts, handing it to her, yet refusing to meet her eyes.

Her hands shook as she used the shirt to clean away the evidence of what they’d shared. Rever still refused to look at her as she righted her dress and he disposed of the shirt in a trashcan. He softly growled, bending to grip the backpack. He finally looked at her and the regret shining in his beautiful eyes about broke her heart.

“We need to do this, Brenda. They’ll give you a shot and if there is a Lord of the Moons my family won’t hear what I have done because it would cause shame that I lost my control. We need to go quickly. They will let us shower there so no one will know what happened between us when we get home. This can’t ever happen again.”

Blinking back tears, Brenda nodded. “Right.”

Rever looked away, nodding. “I wish it could be otherwise.” He paused, his gaze going anywhere but to her as the man stood there silently for long seconds. When he finally spoke again, it was so soft that she had to strain to hear his words.

“I am Argis and my place in Zorn society comes with a lot of responsibility but sometimes I wish it were not so. My father is the leader of Zorn and everything that I do reflects on my family. If it were just my honor I would lay it down to be with you always but it is not that way. I wish that it were because I have very strong emotions for you, Brenda. Always know that even if I can’t be with you, I will always carry you in my thoughts.”

Her heart twisted painfully. Her mouth opened but then she pressed her lips shut.

What was there to say? They couldn’t be together and it was tearing both of them up.

Rever cleared his throat. “We must go.”

Silently, she followed the large man down the alley and back onto the street.

“Where the hell have you been?” Tina was in the living room and looked really pissed off when they returned. “You were gone for five damn hours. When you took me shopping you didn’t take me out that long. What did you do? Buy her everything on the damn street?”

“There was an accident,” Rever said softly. “We were attacked by
killis
.”

“Who the hell is that?” Tina frowned, studying Rever from head to foot and then Brenda. “She caused you to get into a damn fight? Did she flash her pussy too?”

Rever snarled. “No. Enough. It has been a rough day and I am hungry.” He held out the backpack to Brenda. “Here are your clothes.” He still refused to look at her.

Brenda took the strap of the bag. “Thank you.”

He nodded, releasing his hold on the bag. “It was an honor.”

Brenda fled before she broke down in tears, knowing he wasn’t talking about taking her shopping, instead he was telling her that what happened between them really meant something to him as well. Before she reached the hallway she heard Tina.

“I was bored. I hope you had a good damn time getting into a damn fistfight. That bitch Ali wouldn’t fix my meal until you returned. She—”

The rest of it Brenda didn’t hear as she fled into her room and dropped the backpack, collapsing on her bed. A flinch hit her as her ass hit the bed reminding her that she was tender. Rever hadn’t been gentle when he’d fucked her and the shot the medical staff had put her ass still hurt.

Ali walked into the bedroom and studied Brenda silently. Brenda met curious dark brown eyes. Ali sniffed, her expression paled in her naturally tan face instantly, and then she reached over to shut the door, closing them both in the room.

“You’ve showered and you smell of soap but not the kind we have in the house.”

Brenda stared at the woman saying nothing but feeling dread.

Ali sighed. “Something happened with Argis, did it not? I see the way he looks at you and I see the way you look at him. I saw it this morning at breakfast and I saw it last night in the hallway outside this room but I thought I imagined it.” The woman’s voice lowered. “He mounted you.”

“Please,” Brenda said softly. “Don’t. Drop it.”

Nodding, the Zorn silently watched Brenda. “Are you well? Is there anything I can do? I will never speak of this to anyone but it is my job to care for you as well while you are under Argis Rever’s protection. What you say to me stays with me so if you wish to speak you may without fear I will share your words. I don’t like his bound but I would 37

never betray my Argis. To hurt his bound by letting her know he took your body with his would hurt him as well.”

“How…” Brenda shut her mouth, frowning.

“How do I know?” Ali arched a white eyebrow. “I smell his release. I tasted it last night so I know the scent. You showered yet I still smell it so it means it is inside your body. He seeded you. Did they give you a shot to prevent it from taking root?”

“Yes. I won’t get pregnant.”

Nodding, the woman gave Brenda a sympathetic look. “He is a good warrior who has refused to mount me and I have tried hard to get him to. He must have strong feelings for you to fill you with his seed. Our men are trained to not release into the body of a woman unless they are so drawn to them that they can’t resist. That means he wanted to bound with you but he is already taken so he can’t keep you. I don’t like the other human and I think you would make him happy. She does not. I could rid her of this house.”

Shock tore through Brenda. “Are you offering to kill her?”

“Kill?” Ali paused. “I could.”

“No.” Brenda was horrified. “You can’t even joke about that.”

“I hate her for being mean to me and mean to Argis. She will be mean to you as well. One of Argis’s friends stopped by and that asshole invited him in against my orders for her to not. She made me leave them alone to talk and that is disrespectful. I have good hearing and I purposely listened from the hallway. She offered her body to him but he left. He is a good friend to Argis who would never disrespect Argis but she still offered her body to another male. If I tell Argis he would have to kill his friend over that
coltorian
but it would rid us of her.”

“What’s a
coltorian
?”

A growl tore from Ali. “It means something very bad. It is a woman who gives her body to any male in need and she has no honor or respect for anyone else. They put women like that in medical buildings to let any ill man in need of release use their bodies. It is the worst thing a woman can become on Zorn.”

“I got it. I think on my world your word means whore. You can’t tell Rever what she did if it means he has to kill a friend to get rid of her. That would hurt him.”

“She does not deserve Argis Rever. You can fight her for him. I will teach you how to fight if you wish and then you can challenge her to the death. He mounted you so you have the law on your side since he filled you with his seed.”

“No. I’m not going to fight her.” She was stunned.

“It is rare but we are a race with a brutal past. Women have fought and killed to gain powerful men. You could challenge her. I know Argis would not try to stop you if he thought about how he could be free of her.”

“I’m not going to kill someone.”

Disappointment hit Ali’s features. “Oh. It is against your human code of honor to kill a rival?”
