Beast by Measha Stone

Releasing her shoulder, he ran his knuckle across her jaw until he reached her mouth. He ran the tip of one finger over her bottom lip then her chin, her neck, until reaching her chest. He didn tstop, and she made no move to make him. She sensed a test at play, and how well she performed would determine his willingness to accept her offer.

Her father yelled again for Ashland
to leave her alone, but no one paid him any mind.

Ashland s finger trailed along her breastbone, into the dip of her T-shirt, and into the valley between her breasts. Her breath picked up, her lips parted to beg him to stop?

He moved from her chest to the elastic band of her skirt. Instincts took over, and she put her hands on his, stilling him. It only took a raised brow to make her release him. If she stoppedhim now, he wouldn t consider her offer.

Unchallenged once more, he continuedhis descent, slipping inside the band then beneath the cotton of her panties andlower still until he tickled the narrow trail of hair there.

Spread your legs, he whispered.  She scooted her feet out, just enough to give him room to continue. Her face heated, and tears welled, but she wouldn t tug away, she wouldn t give him the  satisfaction. She had to make this deal in order to keep her father safe and alive. Ash could touch her body, but he wouldn t get gratification of seeing herunease.

You re wet, he accused softly. The   ends of his lips curled. Danger turns you on. He kept his gaze locked with  hers and pushed a digit into her entrance. She gasped, not having expected him to go so far. Her body stretching around him was only slightly uncomfortable. Hepumped in and out half a dozen times before he pulled out and rested his finger against her clit. Humiliation over what he d just done washed over her, stealingher breath and heated her face.

Keeping the tears back took more strength than she could have ever imagined possessing. Managing to stay upright and conceal the shaking of her insides, a damn miracle.

You have no idea what you re getting yourself into. Fatality resounded in the words he spoke, amplified by his solemn tone.
