"Enjoying yourself, Matriarch?" he purred, his voice laced with a cruel amusement.
"No," she spat, defiance flickering momentarily in her voice. "This is… degrading."
He chuckled, a dark sound that echoed in the stillness of the room. "Degrading?" he mocked, his fingers circling a nipple. "Your body seems to have a different opinion."
Her moans betrayed her, a low, guttural sound that contradicted her words. Hatred warred with a strange, unfamiliar heat that bloomed within her. She hated his touch, hated the way her body responded despite itself.
