Shocked, I grabbed at the waistband and tugged, trying to haul them back up. “Wait—”
I struggled to loosen his grip. “Pierce, stop. What are you doing?” I protested.
His breathing became heavy as his head dipped low. His look skimmed up to mine before returning to my mouth. “What I should have done weeks ago.”
His lips pressed hard against my own. The sharp edges of my teeth cut into the soft inside of my mouth as he ruthlessly swept his tongue inside. He tasted like coffee and rain and the blood from my cut lip. I moaned as his tongue dueled with mine, while his hand once more yanked down on my panties.
I tightened my grip.
Pierce rolled our bodies, turning us both on the ground until I was straddling his hips. With his hand anchored against the back of my head, holding my face close for his relentless kiss, he shredded my underwear.
He swallowed my sharp intake of breath as he rolled again. This time pinning me beneath his weight, settling between my thighs. I twisted my head to the side and sucked in a gulp of frigid sea air, realizing with a start we had rolled closer to the drop.
My heart seized as my fingers dug into his strong biceps. “Pierce, we—”
Before I could warn him, his hand caught my jaw and twisted my face toward his again, right before he crushed his mouth to mine. The wind and rain battered us as he devoured my soul with his kiss.
He tore at the bow tied at my throat. The sodden material scraped my cold, sensitive skin as he ripped it free. He seized my wrists and stretched my arms over my head.
He had the first silken loops secured around my wrists before I realized what was happening.
I bucked my hips. “What are you doing?” I wrenched my arms, but my strength was no match for his.
He wound the silk tie around my wrists repeatedly and then tied it off until I was bound like a sacrificial offering on the cliff’s edge.
He bit at my lower lip. “I wanted to do that the moment I saw that cute bow tied around your neck.”
I spoke through teeth clenched so tightly they ached. “Untie me. This instant, Pierce. I mean it.”
His eyes narrowed. “My entire fortune could depend on it, and I still wouldn’t untie you, Madison. This is where you were fated to be. Bound. Under me. At my mercy.”
“Please...” The word came out broken. “You’re scaring me.”
He skimmed the underside of my chin with his open mouth. Then tasted my lower lip. “You should be scared. I thought I was in control, but I’m not. Not anymore,” he ground out.
He gripped the open edge of my blouse collar and split it open, sending the small buttons scattering. He palmed one white-lace-covered breast and squeezed. “It’s no good, Madison. Don’t you see? I can’t let you go now.”
I thrashed beneath him, trying to break free. I was half pinned under his tall frame, with his knee braced against my thigh and his left arm still pinning my wrists. “Please. I promise. I won’t tell anyone what you did. I’ll leave town. You’ll never have to see me again.”
He stripped my bra down and flicked one traitorously erect nipple with his tongue then glared at me with those pale, unforgiving eyes. “You don’t get it, babygirl.” He drew my nipple into his mouth and sucked hard.
My back arched off the ground.
He used the edge of his teeth to tease my sensitive flesh and sucked even harder before he released my breast and slid his hand down my stomach. He pushed two fingers inside of me.
Despite the chilling rain raging around us, my cheeks burned.
He lurched upward and forced both his knees between mine. He stared down at me as he lowered his zipper and freed his cock. “The game’s changed.”
Lightning split the sky behind his head.
I lowered my bound wrists and covered my eyes, turning away with a cry.
This isn’t happening.
I turned back and shrieked against the rain pouring down on us. “This isn’t a fucking game! This is my life!”
His fist brushed my inner thigh. He leaned forward, shielding me from the rain as he placed his forearm to the side of my head. His cock pressed against my entrance.
I pushed against his chest, twisting my hips in a vain attempt to stop him.
He nipped at my bottom lip, drawing it into his mouth, bruising the sensitive flesh before harshly commanding, “Open for me, babygirl.”
I whimpered, my resolve melting.
He rocked forward as he nuzzled my neck, his mouth tracing the spot behind my ear. He then whispered darkly, “Surrender to me.”
I opened my mouth to speak but couldn’t force the words of denial past my lips.
He angled his hips and thrust. His shaft stretched and filled me at the same time he claimed my mouth, devastating what was left of my resistance.
