“You could have been killed. Alluwn underestimated you and didn’t attack you with force so you were able to get in some good hits that brought her down. She was toying with you. Do you know how fortunate you were? I told you to take her out when she was down the first time but you ignored my order and allowed her to get up to hurt your shoulder and arm. If she had hit you harder, gotten the advantage, I would be burying you.”

He was still really pissed off and Shanna knew that she’d gotten lucky. She didn’t need him to point it out to her but he was obviously not going to let this go easily. She moved on the bed, getting to her knees. Her gaze locked with his as she reached for her shirt, slowly lifting it over her head. She tossed it to the floor and reached for the waist of her pants. Berrr’s gaze lowered to her bared breasts.

“What are you doing?”

“Distracting you.” She shifted on the bed, climbing off it to shove down her pants in the process, and kicked them away. Standing totally naked just feet from Berrr, she turned, presenting him with her back, and walked to the bed. She put her hands on it, bending over, and spread her feet a good foot apart. She turned her head to look over her shoulder at him. “Is it working?”

A soft growl came from Berrr, his full attention fixed on her bent ass and exposed pussy. He moved, his hands reaching for his shirt. She watched him tear it open, yanking it down his arms to expose that muscled chest and arms of his, her appreciative gaze taking in every inch of him he revealed. The guy was just beautiful and perfect.

He nearly tore open the front of his pants, freeing his very hard and erect cock. He didn’t bother to kick off his boots or remove his pants all the way. He walked the few feet that separated them, his hands reaching for her hips but he stopped inches from touching her, his hands hovering while their gazes locked together.

“You’re hurt.”

“It’s no big deal. I hurt for you more.”

“Get on the bed on your back now and spread your legs.” Shanna rolled on the bed onto her back and then tried to scoot more center on the mattress but Berrr’s large, hot hands suddenly gripped her hips, dragging her ass to the edge of the bed. She stared up at him, surprised, expecting him to get on the bed with her instead of yanking her body closer to where he stood. He moved suddenly, dropping to his knees as his hands left her hips to grip her thighs, spreading them, exposing her pussy to his view.

“There is no ceremony for bounding.” Berrr leaned forward, turning his head to kiss her inner thigh. He opened his mouth, letting his tongue trace her skin upward, inching for her pussy. “Only a bound woman can take her warrior’s seed into her body.

You’ve been mine since the first time I mounted you, my Shanna. Now it is just official.”

Berrr shifted her legs, putting them over his shoulders so her calves ran down his back as he inched closer to her, his mouth so near her clit that she could feel his hot breath. Her heart started to pound knowing what he was going to do to her and her body responding full force.

“No more fighting for my woman,” Berrr said softly, his gaze lifting to meet hers.

“Vow to me now that I will never have to worry about you getting killed again.”

“Hey, none of this was my fault. I didn’t ask to be attacked by your house helpers and I didn’t ask for Alluwn to try to use me to get back at you, leaving me no choice but to fight her.”

“I want your vow for no more fighting.”

“I can’t promise that. What if—”

Berrr lowered his face, his hands slid on her thighs on the inside, holding her legs wide open as his thumbs spread her labia. His mouth lowered, opening, and then he was licking at her clit. Pleasure hit Shanna instantly at the wonderful sensation of his thick, wet tongue lapping at her sensitive nub.

Her fingers fisted the bedding. “That feels so good. If you think you can seduce me into promising you—”

A moan tore from her, cutting off her words, as Berrr pushed his thumb into her pussy, his lips closing over her clit, sucking on her while his strong tongue slid back and forth across the sensitive flesh trapped in his mouth.

“Oh God.”

Berrr growled, his mouth vibrating against her clit. Shanna tensed, arching her back, and moaned louder. Her fingers clawed at the bedding, fisting it, releasing it, and then dug in again. The man was amazing with that mouth and his thumb was inside her rubbing right against her G-spot. Pleasure washed through her, making it nearly impossible for her to think. She bucked her hips, wiggling them in tune to his moving thumb, moaning louder.

“I’m not going to last,” she panted. “You’re too fucking good at this.” He growled louder, vibrating harder, his tongue gliding up and down on the magic spot on her swelling clit, ecstasy flooding her until she wasn’t sure she could take it.

The pleasure turned to near pain, the sensations that raw and strong, but Berrr held her in place with his strong hands, ignoring the pressure against the side of his head as she tried to close her thighs to make him release her.

“Berrr, I can’t take it.” She moaned, wiggling against the comforter, not even caring that her injured shoulder rubbed on the bed. “Oh fuck.” The climax was brutal in intensity when it rushed through her. Her inner vaginal muscles started to spasm around his still-moving thumb, her release flooding her pussy with warm wetness, a cry tearing from her lips. Berrr released her clit with his mouth, lifting his head.

Shanna forced her eyes to open when long seconds later she recovered enough to realize Berrr was still gripping her, his thumb still inside her but he had gone totally still. She met his gaze, staring at him while he stared back.

“Give me your vow, my Shanna. If you do not I will keep doing this until you beg me to stop. I will tie you to my bed if that is what it takes, tying your legs open so you can’t stop me until you will swear to do anything I want.” Arching an eyebrow, Shanna couldn’t hold back the laugh. “Is that supposed to be a threat? Honey, I’m not Zorn. I love multiple orgasms. If you want to make me come half a dozen times that is something I’d want to provoke you into doing.” She grinned at him. “Tie me up and lick me to death. Go ahead.”

Berrr’s beautiful eyes narrowed, obviously not amused at her taunt. “You say that now but imagine how sensitive you would be.”
