Tempting Rever

“Life will be harsh for us, more for you than for me because I was raised to be a warrior. We live in tough conditions with our training but you are human. I will care for you, Brenda. I will protect you and make sure you never go hungry.” Reaching up, she caressed his cheek. “I know. You don’t have to convince me.” He smiled. “I am a good hunter and provider.”
Laughing, she nodded. “I believe that.”
His smile died. “I worry about the future.”
“As long as I’m with you it’s all right.”
“They will hunt for us but I will kill anyone who comes to try to take you away from me and I will kill any wild males who sniff around our home. I am concerned about when I get you with offspring since you are human and not as rugged as a Zorn woman. If you need medical help I worry about getting you there safely in time and what will happen if we have to go back.”
She swallowed hard, not wanting to think about a possible pregnancy living in a cave. “What will happen if we ever have to go back?” Rever’s eyes narrowed, a soft growl came from him as anger tightened his features.
“Volder will try to take you from me since the law will be on his side and I can’t challenge him since according to our laws I am still bound to Tina. He has a right to you so I will be locked up for your theft. I don’t worry about myself but I worry about you.
Volder will punish you for running away with me. Swear that if you’re ever captured you will lie by telling him that I took you by force.” Shock hit her. “I will never say that. You saved me.” Brenda could only gasp as her back hit the mat when he rolled them over quickly, coming down on top of her to pin her under his massive body in the blink of an eye. He growled softly while his gaze narrowed and he stared into her eyes.
“You don’t understand. Abusing a woman is forbidden but there are circumstances on Zorn where punishing a woman is acceptable and running away with a male is one of those offenses. You will tell them I took you by force, holding you against your will if we are ever taken back, Brenda. You don’t understand what he could do to you.” She wasn’t afraid of Rever as she reached up to cup his face, even though he looked seriously pissed off. “Wouldn’t it make it worse for you if I lied like that? I don’t want you punished for a crime you didn’t commit. You didn’t steal me or take me by force and I won’t have you suffer for wanting to be with me as much as I want to be with you.”
His chest expanded as he took a deep breath. “I will be punished regardless of if you came with me willing or not. If we’re ever captured, you need to protect yourself from Volder’s rage.”
“How pissed could he be? Seriously? He doesn’t even know me and he wasn’t real happy about being stuck with a human. You should have seen his face when he first arrived at your house and you didn’t hear the things he was saying.” A muscle in Rever’s jaw jumped. “You don’t understand Zorn men. If you say you went with me willingly it will enrage his pride. It will shame him to everyone, so to save his dignity, he would punish you harshly.”
“The worst punishment for me would be to lose you. If that happens I won’t care what happens to me.”
Something softened in Rever’s beautiful eyes. “I will care.” Her heart squeezed in her chest. Damn, the man could make her melt. The tenderness filling his gorgeous eyes made her love him deeper knowing he was more worried about her than himself. He’d given up so much already.
“Swear to me, my bound. Tell me for my peace that you will say I took you by force.”
Tears welled in her eyes. “Don’t make me promise something that I won’t ever do.
Please don’t ask that of me because I never want to lie to you. There’s no way that I would ever say you did something bad to me.”
Rever’s head lowered as he closed his eyes and their foreheads touched as he took a shaky breath. He lifted up an inch before his eyelids parted again and their gazes locked. His tongue slid across his lower lip while he studied her.
“I will just make sure that we are never captured then.” Her fingers explored his jawline, loving touching him. Her heart sped up when she became aware of Rever’s state of arousal as he moved, shifting on her, feeling the firm press of his hard cock against her inner thigh. She wanted him again as much as he obviously wanted her. Not even hesitating, she wrapped her legs around his hips.
Rever lifted up, letting her move under him into a better position. Their gazes remained locked.
“Make love to me.”
She didn’t have to ask twice before Rever’s mouth lowered to hers. He was amazingly gentle as he positioned his bigger body over her smaller one, entering her at the same time that his mouth pressed to her lips. He caught her moan of pleasure between his lips, their tongues meeting as he pushed deeper inside her pussy.
Brenda’s legs wrapped higher and tighter around his hips to give him freer access to move. Nothing had ever felt as wonderful as Rever did and it went beyond physical.
His mouth left hers when he lifted his head, seating himself fully inside her body. A soft growl came from his parted lips.
“Tell me you love me. I want to hear it, Brenda.”
“I’ll always love you, Rever.”
He withdrew a little before pushing back inside her body, pleasure transforming his features. He moved in slow movements, both of them enjoying every moment of his thick cock sliding inside her tight body. Her hands clutched at his broad, muscular shoulders as she gripped his hips tighter with her legs, moving against his body, trying to urge him to take her faster. His lips curved into a smile.
“You want more?”
She refused to look away from the sexiest eyes ever. “Yes.” He paused for a few heartbeats and then drove into her hard and fast. Ecstasy shot through her, a loud moan coming from her. “Yes!”
“Hold onto me.”
She never wanted to let him go. Rever moved on her, his powerful body rippling as he used his strength to brace over her so he wouldn’t crush her, his knees digging into the mattress for traction. His hips twisted slightly as he drove in and out of her in dominant thrusts. He was totally in control, totally masterful of her body, and she loved it as much as she did him.
Her inner muscles tightened as he worked her sensitive nerves. Growls and groans came from him but her moans were louder. Nothing had ever felt as amazing as Rever and she knew nothing ever would again. It was this man, this warrior, who had captured her heart with his soft ways, with his beautiful eyes and his complete abandonment of everything in his life just to be with her.
