DESIRE BURNS

Leslie’s hand clamped around Ruby’s jaw, forcing her to look up at him, his light brown eyes glinting. “How dare you think you can make me jealous, huh? You’re mine, Ruby. My woman,” he growled, his voice low, vibrating against her chest as he pushed her back against the wall. Ruby’s lips parted, a shaky breath leaving her as his body caged hers in. “I—I wasn’t. We are still at school." His thumb slid across her bottom lip, pressing until she gasped. “You wanted my attention, didn’t you? Well, now you’ve got it.” Before she could respond, his mouth was on hers. His other hand trailed down, gripping her thigh hard enough to bruise, hitching it around his waist. Ruby whimpered into his mouth, the sound only making him growl deeper, his teeth catching her lip. Leslie rasped. “When I say you belong to me, I mean it. I’ll remind you until it’s etched into your pretty little body.” Her head tilted back as his mouth trailed hot, biting kisses along her throat, his hand slipping beneath her skirt with no hesitation. “Say it,” he ordered, his fingers teasing at her entrance, making her writhe helplessly against the wall. “Say who you belong to, Ruby.” Her nails dug into his shoulders as pleasure and frustration tangled in her voice. “You. Leslie... I’m yours.” He pushed inside her with a rough thrust of his fingers, swallowing her cry with another searing kiss.
