SONYA'S POV I should tell him to stop. Should maintain some distance while we figure out this forced mate bond situation. But I don't want distance. I want him. I want to feel something other than the crushing betrayal Derek left behind. Want to remember what it's like to be desired by someone who actually sees me. "Don't stop," I breathe. He captures my mouth in a searing kiss, his hand sliding between my thighs. But instead of touching me where I need him most, he traces lazy patterns on my inner thighs, deliberately avoiding my aching core. "Reign," I whimper against his lips. "Please..." "Please what?" His fingers dance closer, then retreat again. "Use your words, little omega." "Touch me. I need you to touch me." "Where?" He's torturing me now, his fingers stroking everywhere
