Chapter 43 Chap Forty-two

• I squeezed my eyes shut, bracing against the violent rhythm of his movements. My nails dug into his back as his pace intensified. Damon's guttural moans filled the room, blending with the raw mixture of pain and desire coursing through me. My lips parted as I gasped under the pressure of his unrestrained passion.
• This was different—unlike anything we'd experienced before. The sheer strength and speed of his thrusts left me breathless, the pleasure mingled with an undeniable ache. Damon wasn't holding back this time. He seemed deaf to my moans, unresponsive to my grunts. He wasn’t himself anymore.
• Yet, I let him. I surrendered, allowing him to take me as he needed. I had wanted this, to see him unleashed, free of restraint. Despite the pain, despite knowing it would leave me sore and weak, I didn't want to fail him. I wanted Damon to feel unencumbered with me. I wanted him to know I could take all of him, even if it hurt.
