~ JESSE ~
I thought they were just words. Just him asserting himself. That dominance thing he'd talked about. He was moving inside me more erratically, so I thought it was over. That he'd climax and this would be done.
But the moment he said the word forever, my breath stopped. The skin under his hand, where his teeth had cut my flesh, flared bright and burning. And just as I began to cry out against the pain, it chilled to ice.
Still fisting my hair in his other hand, Cazz dropped his face to the back of my neck and sucked in a deep, shuddering breath.
Mine.
I felt the word. Heard it in my head, though his lips didn't move. And something inside me responded to it, a whip-crack of light and heat so bright it felt like it seared my heart.
