Chapter Ten

BOUND FOR PLEASURE

Slean

Den loves the way dusky orange looks against the rich, dark sepia of my skin. His knot work is as beautiful as it always is. It takes some concentration to watch the movement of his hands; the whispered shhh of the rope as he pulls it through itself, the grip of it against my skin, even the simple measured breaths he takes—every sensation pulls at me, urging me to surrender to the moment, to my mate.

Of course, I already have. He owns me; he has since before I even knew who and what he is.

The harness he ties around me traps my arms at my sides and slightly behind me and creates a diamond pattern on my chest. It’s gorgeous, and the haze of peace clouds my mind in the best way as I watch his long hair shift with his movement as he works the rope, tying my thigh to my ankle to my hand and wrist. Just to test the security of the rope, I take the deepest breath I can and flex. The knots pull against each other and the rope digs into my skin, but nothing gives except Den, who gives me an amused huff.

His smooth voice skims over my skin like a warm bath. “You’re safe, my love. I’m here.”

He stands from his kneeling position and looks down at me, lifting my chin. “Close your eyes, mate. Relax. I’ll let you know when I’m ready to fuck you.

It’s difficult to take my eyes off the most beautiful man in my life. Elfin and delicate, my mate always captures every ounce of my attention when he stands over me. He exudes an energy uniquely his even with the powers of a god residing within him. Neither heavily masculine nor feminine, nor particularly androgynous, Den commands attention because he is whatever the person in front of him needs him to be. For Monet, he’s a masochist who loves pleasing his sadist, and for his family, he’s a caretaker with the patience and energy to rival his adoptive father. For me, he’s the switch I need, a man who can dominate me when I want it and the man who can submit to my needs when I need it. I almost never know what I need until I see him, but he’s always ready to play however I need him to.

I guess he’s the jack of all trades for relationships.

It makes me wonder if we’re satisfying his needs because we’re all selfish with him.

“My love, I am well satisfied with you, I promise. I get mine as much as you get yours.”

“You’re getting better at reading the bond between us,” I whisper, unwilling to let a loud voice disturb the peace of the moment between us.

“Practice makes it better,” he replies cheekily. “Relax. Let me finish this.”

I force myself to close my eyes and tip my head back, letting myself relax into the bonds containing me.

Den works to tie up my other arm, and when he finishes, I hear him shuffle through some of the supplies we keep in the pocket realm.
