"Never," Cass murmured against his lips. He should know better than that, she would never give in and she would never stop fighting. Only a few knew that she could accept defeat and only those few knew what she had done to accept it. She knew the price now, she understood it. Maybe he didn't. "I don't want to ah-"

A small moan escaped her lips at the friction, the heat from him lifting his hips, from him fucking her. Harder and sharper than before making her rock back against him, body moving fluidly into response even before she understands it. She can't- ohhh- she can't allow the smallest slip. "I'll hurt you."

He needed to understand that.
