The sky overhead opens, and the rain pours over our heated bodies as we drink each other in, consumed in our need and desire for the other. I want him over me, wrapped around me, inside of me. He’s already stolen pieces of me—mind, body, and soul—but my need for this man goes beyond all that, it’s fundamental. Without him, I don’t think I’d survive tomorrow.

I’m not the only one feeling this, either. I can sense it in him as though the feelings are my own. He needs this, me, just as much. He needs to know I’m not going to run. That I accept him, darkness and all.

Pulling back, I place a hand over his lips, needing to get this out, needing him to see that I crave every part of him because we’re the same. I hold the blade steady against my collarbone. The cool metal of the razor’s sharp edge scrapes lightly along the surface, causing goosebumps to rise along my arms. I watch as his eyes dilate, the black of his pupils swallowing the hazel of his irises as he tracks the blade’s path across my chest. His gaze isn’t cold and intrusive like those of the men who took from me. No, his is heated and my body craves more of it—more of him. In this my mind and body are in unison.

Blood on your hands and staining your clothes. When you’d look at me, there’d be a hunger in your eyes, a deep desire to fuck me. The violence, the fear they fed you, the blood. It all turns you on. This is what you need.”

“I won’t ask this of you. Everyone who has ever touched you has been out to hurt you. They forced your fear. They took your body. The things I want to do to you are just as depraved and monstrous. But I couldn’t live with myself if you ever looked at me like you looked at them.”

“The difference is you would never hurt me, Kain. I know that.”

He shakes his head, untangling my legs from his hips, the moment coming apart. He holds me until my feet hit the ground, and then he takes a step back, running his fingers through his wet hair.

“But I fucking want to. At the sudden snick of my blade slipping free, I want the fear thick in your eyes so that your pupils swallow those bright green orbs, not knowing what I’ll do. I want to run my blade over your body, drawing shivers of anticipation from you, wondering where I’ll nick you, making you bleed. I want to marvel at
