Ahhh, WIP it up Wednesday! I’ve missed this blog hop! Today we have a snippet of my next book ‘Taken by the Enemy’ which will be released by a publisher in the coming months (more info to come when I can share it). This scene is actually connected to my Saturday Spankings blog hop scene (go check it out too if you like!), but you can just read this if you like. In this scene, Emmie has spent a night with her hands tied behind her back after Lucian captured her, and she really wants them free. He’s agreed to graciously untie her hands if she earns it.

Hope you enjoy it, lovelies!

“What do you want?” Emmie whispered.

“I want you to accept your role here, and earn the right to have your hands free.”

“I refuse.”

Lucian stood up and grabbed the back of the chair to return it to the table. “Alright then, we’ll talk tomorrow.”

“Wait!” Emmie cried out and he stopped. She let out a frustrated scream and clenched her eyes tight. “Please, I want my hands free. I’ll do what you want.”

The sound of the chair landing in front of her alerted her to his presence, and then she heard his deep breath as he settled onto it. “Alright. What do you think I want?”

“Me.”

Silence stretched, and then she felt his touch under her chin lifting her head and she opened her eyes to find that heather gray stare inches from her. “Yes, I do. What are you offering, little bird?”

“Please,” she whimpered, and his thumb brushed across her lips. The intimacy of that touch made her shudder, and then she knew exactly what he wanted. “I’ll –”

“Yes?” He asked, holding her chin so that she couldn’t look away. It was infuriating to look at him. Those strong features, accented by the delicate, high cheekbones that would have made him almost pretty – if it weren’t for the rugged tousle of his light brown hair. She hated him, and his face, and his strong body, and the power he held over her.

“I’ll taste you,” she whispered, and his eyes widened slightly.

“Really.” It didn’t come across as a question, more of a doubting mockery, but that was something she at least knew how to do. It was at least something she had done under much more pleasant circumstances.

“Yes,” she muttered and turned her face out of his hand.

“Let’s see then, because you won’t need your hands for it.” Lucian leaned back from her, and she was grateful for the space until his hands went to his pants and began to open them. He was already hard, straining against the fabric until his cock finally sprang free and he stroked it slowly. “Come on, little bird.”

“Don’t call me that.”

“Would you prefer Emmie?” he asked.

“I’d prefer silence.”
