His smug face.

God damn, his smug face.

Part of me wanted to punch him in that annoying, insufferable, smug face.

But another part of me wanted to kiss him – needed to kiss him. Needed him.

“Tell me, Lass,” the nickname rolled off his tongue. He stood from his chair, and in a single, long stride stood in front of me. Leaning down, his lips were inches from my ear, his voice low and gravely. “Tell me what you want me to do.” I could hear the smile on his face – that insufferably smug smile. “Beg for me, Lass.”

I swallowed hard, trying to regain my composure, trying not to feed into his ego any more than I already had. Silently, I prayed he couldn’t see the deep flush of my face, but I knew if I could feel it, he could see it.

His fingers danced on my hip, tentatively rubbing his fingers in circles right over my hip bone. “Do you want this, Lass?”

Biting my lip, my brain searched for an answer. Fuck, I wanted this But I also couldn’t stand to feed his ego any more.

“Alosa, have you forgotten how to use your siren voice?” He removed his face from my ear, so his deep brown eyes bored into mine. Gold flecks glittered along his iris, shining brightly with his fucking smug face. Good God, that face.

“I know how to use it just fine,” my voice was harsher than it intended. Trying to backtrack, I wanted to look desirable for him. I wanted to be in control. Wanted to make him squirm like he always made me. “But do you? I want to hear you beg, Riden.”

His eyebrows raised for a moment – but that Goddamn smirk did not drop.

“Really, Lass? You think you can make me scream? Do you want me on my knees? Because last time I found myself there, I think you were the one begging.”

Before I could say anything, he swiftly sank to his knees, staring up at me from those impossibly thick eyelashes. Gently, his fingers rested on my bare knee, the hem of my skirt resting just above it.

“If you’re going to be this insufferable,” I said to him, trying to keep my composure, trying not to admit just how fucking much I wanted this – I needed this, “at least put your mouth to good use.”

“Oh don’t worry, Lass.” He pressed a kiss to the inside of my knee. Fuck. Slowly, his mouth inched up further, while his hand bunched up my skirt. “Be a good girl and hold this for me.” His lips were still pressed to the soft skin of my thighs, his voice rumbling through me and going straight to my aching center.

As he handed me the fabric of my skirt, he intertwined his fingers with mine. Pausing for a moment, he looked up at me, our eyes meeting. His smirk had dropped, his eyes looking at me with pure adoration. “I love you, Alosa. I don’t think I will ever stop loving you.”

I crouched down, capturing my lips with his. As insufferable as his smirks were, his kisses were sweeter than honey, delicate and gentle, as though he worried he would break me. And in a single kiss, I felt more endearing love than I had ever felt in my life before him.

With him, I could be soft. With him, moments could be tender. I no longer needed to spend every second of every day protecting myself.

With him, I could unravel.

We broke apart, the softness lingering in his voice. “Do you want me here? Or do we want to go to your bed?”

Oh right. I was supposed to be coming down to the empty brig to make sure we had enough supplies if we were to run into any unsavory characters as we searched for our next treasure. Riden had been tucked away in a corner, cleaning his swords, trying to get a moment of peace and quiet. And while we were currently secluded behind crates of food, there was no lock, and anyone could come down here, looking for either one of us.

Going back to my room would have been the smart choice. The safe choice. But honestly, I couldn’t wait another moment for Riden to touch me. And besides, no one was supposed to be coming down looking for me for a while.

So I had no choice but to beg. “Please, Riden, please touch me. I need you.”

“Your voice is so sweet, Lass.” His smirk returned, ever so pleased with himself. “It’s even sweeter when it’s begging for me.”

Handing me the rest of my skirts and petticoats, his fingers danced to my inner thigh before running over the crotch of my underwear.

“Green,” he whispered, his breath tickling my thighs. “My favorite color. Did you wear them just for me?”

“Don’t flatter yourself,” I laughed, but quickly found myself biting my lip as he ran his fingers over my sensitive nub. He moved his fingers in the repetitive circular motion, just the way I taught him, and I could feel a moan slip from my mouth.

“Really?” he asked. “Don’t flatter myself? Because you’re awfully wet for me, Lass. So I find myself quite flattered. In just a few minutes I can do this to you.” He moved his fingers through my folds, prompting me to let you a shaky breath.

He switched to a more serious voice. “Is this okay, though? Can I touch you?”

“Please,” my voice shook. “Please, Riden. I need you.” God, I wanted him so bad. And even though I said I wasn’t going to beg, I found myself back in this familiar position, begging for Riden. This, I thought, is why his ego is so damn big. But I couldn’t help but always find myself begging for him.

Slowly, he pushed one finger in, then another, curling them slightly. As he slowly pumped them in and out, he used his thumb to rub slow circles around my clit. Within moments, he found a perfect rhythm, and even better, that perfect spot.

A moan ripped from my lips, and I instantly brought my hand up to my mouth to quiet myself, dropping the fabric of my skirt.

I felt him pull away, prompting me to whimper from the loss. “Riden?” I looked down, and again that fucking smug face looked up at me.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk,” he said, standing up to meet me, wrapping his fingers around my wrist. “Don’t quiet yourself, Alosa. I want to hear you – hear your lovely siren cries.”

“Someone might hear us,” I worried. But without his hands on me, the desire I felt was mounting, starting not to care if someone heard me.

“Let them hear,” he whispered, before pressing his lips to my neck, lightly grasping my flesh with his teeth. “Let them hear how good I can make you feel, Alosa. Let them hear how much I can enchant my siren. My love.”

His fingers found their way back between my legs. Grasping the fabric of my underwear, he pushed it down, giving him full unfettered access. And he returned to that perfect rhythm. Each time I let out another cry, it seemed to encourage him even more, getting him to move faster, more precisely – as though I was a puzzle only he knew how to solve.

My moans got louder and louder in spite of myself, and I could feel that wonderful pressure building in the bottom of my stomach.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck. Riden,” I pleaded.

“I’m right here, my love.” He quickened his pace, the way his fingers curled around me, sending me over the edge. Wave of pleasure rushed and crashed over me, my moans falling from my lips like raindrops from the sky.

With him, I unravelled.

Completely and totally, I unravelled.

My fingers dug into his bicep as I came, my voice shivering, my mind going absolutely blank as my body filled with nothing but pleasure. Well, pleasure and love.

My legs shook, refusing to support me any longer. But Riden and I had found ourselves in moments like these before, and he knew me – knew every inch of me. And he knew that after I came, my legs often shook so hard I could hardly stand. His arm wrapped around my waist, supporting me, as I buried my face in the crook of his neck, smelling the strong scent of his cologne as I tried to catch my breath.

“Fuck,” I groaned when I finally could breathe. “Holy fuck, Riden. How do you make me feel so good?”

Although my face was still buried in his neck, I could hear the smug look return to his face. But there was still softness and tenderness to his words, to the way he held me, so close as though he was worried I would break away. “You make it easy, Lass. When you beg for me, I know exactly what you want. You have the most beautiful voice.”

He pressed a kiss to the crown of my head and just held me like that for a moment.

In moments like these, I felt so completely overwhelmed by the love that Riden showed me – that he had for me. Not only could he see me in soft, tender moments like this, but he actively sought them out. He was probably the only one in all the seas and on all the land that could bring out this side of me. And for him, I wanted to show it wholly.

He loved my voice – not as a tool for him to use and manipulate, but because through it, he could know if he was making me happy, if he was making me feel good. My voice was not something he could control, or even sought to. It was not something he wanted power from, or to use to hurt others. The wonderful noises he made me produce, he did so out of nothing but love for me.

And for that, I was able to unravel around him.

“I love you,” I whispered to him, before capturing his lips with mine, pulling him closer to me, if that was even possible.

“I love you more than you can ever know, Alosa.” He pressed a kiss to my forehead. “Now why don’t we get you something to eat?”

“Oh crap,” I laughed. “I was supposed to be calculating our food stores for the brig. Mandy is going to be so mad at me for taking so long.”

“Let her be mad.” He tucked a stray lock of hair behind my ear. “We can just spend another moment together.”

In my heart, I knew. We would be spending many more moments together, just as tender and raw as this.

I loved him. Smug face and all.

💬 What are you #currentlyreading? 🤎📖 I haven’t been able to focus on reading at all this week, fighting off this horrible throat infection. I’m praying I start feeling better soon and can get back to reading. 🤎 Thank you to @fiercereads for sending me a copy of Master of Iron by @tricialevenseller! In Master of Iron, the conclusion to Tricia Levenseller’s exciting Bladesmith YA fantasy duology, a magically gifted blacksmith with social anxiety must race against the clock to save her beloved sister and stop a devastating war. Eighteen-year-old Ziva may have defeated a deadly warlord, but the price was almost too much. Ziva is forced into a breakneck race to a nearby city with the handsome mercenary, Kellyn, and the young scholar, Petrik, to find a powerful magical healer who can save her sister’s life. When the events that follow lead to Ziva and Kellyn’s capture by an ambitious prince, Ziva is forced into the very situation she’s been dreading: magicking dangerous weapons meant for world domination. The forge has always been Ziva’s safe space, a place to avoid society and the anxiety it causes her, but now it is her prison, and she’s not sure just how much of herself she’ll have to sacrifice to save Kellyn and take center stage in the very war she’s been trying to stop. . . . h a s h t a g s : #MasterofIron #TriciaLevenseller #booklovers #yabooks #yabookstagram #livemoremagic #aquietbeauty #asecondofwhimsey #lifestyleinspo #photosinbetween #ofsimplethings #hopetoread #seekinspirecreate #readya #totalbooknerd #bibliophile #booknerd #readersofinstagram #booksofig #bookseverywhere #morningslikethese #cozystyle #readinglife #bookishflatlay https://www.instagram.com/p/CgfCiMRON9S/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

💜 #bookreview 💜 Read: Jan 6 - 7, 2022 | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ QOTD: do you like darker romances? Is this a dark romance, probably not but it is a darker romance. Best of all? It’s a stand-alone!! 😍 Tricia does it again!!!!!! I am so in love. This is definitely a new favorite of mine. It’s about a 2nd born daughter never getting the attention of love she deserves bc all of her dads focus went into her old sister so she makes her way to being able to be courted with the Shadow King and plans to take over ruling once she’s crowned queen and then she begins to learn more about him and his past. She’s also a bad ass seamstress and isn’t afraid to own her body. Alessandra is a total empowered woman who knows what she wants and goes for it and is unashamed by it! She’s also a totally awesome seamstress. Kallias is the same but male version. 😂 💜Sorta spoilerish He pushed people away because he thought it was best until he meets Alessandra and is infuriated by her actions and he cannot stay away. Seeing their relationship grows is fantastic! I love it so much. The way Kallias treats her too is everything. Her father is trash and her sister is the worst. 😒 I love the group of friends that eventually come together. I also so halfway called it with Leandros!!!!!! 💜Tags #fantasystandalone #fantasybook #theshadowbetweenus #tricialevenseller #romance #bookishflatlay #bookstagram #bookaddictions #booknerd #bookaddict #bookphotography #bookloversofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbaaay0r34H/?utm_medium=tumblr

★ What trope or theme would you like to see more of?        Villain romance! I want to see more books with villainous characters falling in love. Make it messy, make it seductive and devious. Give them romantic escapes while doing bad things! Confuse me because I want to root for them to kiss, but don’t want to root for their evil plans.        Honestly, that’s why I *loved* The Shadows Between Us so much. From the first line, I realized Alessandra is not your typical YA heroine and Kallias is even more ruthless.        ★ Featured is the purple @fairyloot edition of The Shadows Between Us        ★ CHALLENGES //    #tumblesoverbooks / recreate an old photo    #allthebooksjune21 / favorite book characters        ★ HASHTAGS //       #tricialevenseller #fiercereads #theshadowsbetweenus #fairyloot #fantasybooks #bookcart #shelfie #bookshelf #bookshelvesofinstagram #standalone #bookstagram #bookworm #bookphotography #bibliophile #booklover #bookaddict #instareads #bookblogger #bookobsessed #readersofinstagram #bookish #booksbooksbooks #beautifulbooks #booktag #prettybooks #goodreads #bookdragon #bookhoarder https://www.instagram.com/p/CPrKPVar5m5/?utm_medium=tumblr

💬 Do you preorder books? What’s the last book you preordered? . I just preordered BLADE OF SECRETS by @tricialevenseller! I’m so excited to have the eARC (thank you @tricialevenseller & @fiercereads!!), which I plan to start this weekend! . . . s u m m a r y ⇣ A teenage blacksmith with social anxiety accepts a commission from the wrong person and is forced to go on the run to protect the world from the most powerful magical sword she's ever made. Eighteen-year-old Ziva prefers metal to people. She spends her days tucked away in her forge, safe from society and the anxiety it causes her, using her magical gift to craft unique weapons imbued with power. Then Ziva receives a commission from a powerful warlord, and the result is a sword capable of stealing its victims' secrets. A sword that can cut far deeper than the length of its blade. A sword with the strength to topple kingdoms. When Ziva learns of the warlord’s intentions to use the weapon to enslave all the world under her rule, she takes her sister and flees. Joined by a distractingly handsome mercenary and a young scholar with extensive knowledge of the world's known magics, Ziva and her sister set out on a quest to keep the sword safe until they can find a worthy wielder or a way to destroy it entirely. . . . h a s h t a g s ⇣ #bladeofsecrets #tricialevenseller #fiercereads #yabookstagram #yabooks #bookstagrammer #booklover #bookworm #totalbooknerd #culturetripbooks #readersofinstagram #readmorebooks #readingtime #girlsthatread #onthebedproject #cozyvibes #cozyhomedecor #bedroomdecor #bedsidetable #bedsidelamp #readingnook #aquietstyle #seekthesimplicity #pursuepretty #morningslikethese https://www.instagram.com/p/CMAZswzn3mM/?igshid=aohiimys4pdn
