I get off on pain...on how I make her writhe under me. Seduce her into calling out to me. Teasing her, enticing her to cry out as I mark her flesh. Lick her rounded curves. Tie her down and claim her and... I know what you are thinking. That I demand complete power exchange? True. That I will not stop until I have broken her? Yep! But here's something else....

We were just friends. That’s how it had always been, and that’s how it would always be...if I had any self-control. Who said we had to stay in the friend zone? Apparently I did, for far too long. But the truth was, I didn’t think there was anything sexier than having blurred lines when it came to Stella. The girl I’d wanted for longer than I’d ever admit to anyone. My best friend.
