I wanted to continue the scene from Given to the Savage that I shared this past weekend for Saturday Spankings (if you haven't read it, it's only eight sentences long and precedes this so click here to get to that link). It was a non-consensual piece and I think it might have bothered some people. This book as a whole is not a sweet romance but a story set in a time of fear and of a love that begins rooted in that fear.
Writing this book was very different than writing any other I have written, but at this point in my writing, I firmly believe in an HEA, no matter how impossible, and I promise there is one to come...only it won't be until much later.
At the end of this scene, the reader learns the why behind Silas' actions, or at least some of it. It doesn't wholly absolve him of his sins, but perhaps shines a little light on this harsh savage of a man. It's a huge spoiler though so I'm not taking you that far in this snippet but here is the continuation from Saturday's post...
*scene begins from Silas point of view and switches to Rowan's at the break
* * * *
He wanted to drive into her, to
take from her without giving anything back. God knew after whipping her, that
that was how he should take her, how he needed to take her. But as he looked
down at her still, waiting form, no longer struggling, just waiting, knowing what
would now come, he could not. Instead, he reached one hand around and with his
cock deep inside her, he found her swollen clit and his fingers grew as wet as
his cock in her drenched pussy.
“Come,” he said, his voice
hoarse, his fingers working her clit while he fucked her, his cock thrusting in
and out of her, stretching her tight pussy to accommodate his thick length. “Come,
Rowan.”
* * * *
Rowan’s mouth went slack as his
fingers worked her clit. Her ass felt as though it were aflame while his cock
stretched and filled her pussy, burning her from the inside with its merciless
assault. She shouldn’t want to come.
She shouldn’t want to give herself
like this. He could take her, he would
take her, whether she wanted it or not, but she shouldn’t want it. He had just
punished her without pity. He had whipped her harder than she had ever been
whipped in her life. And here she was, moments away from an ecstasy she did not
understand.
“Come,” he said again,
emotion turning the word into a desperate plea, leaving her no choice but to
come, and when she did, he moved faster inside her, fucking her harder, his one
hand holding her hip high, digging into the flesh there as his movements grew
more frantic until he made that same desperate sound again, his cock throbbing,
pulsing, releasing his seed into her, until finally, he collapsed on top of
her, crushing her into the bed.
Their breathing quieted in time
and Silas rolled off her and onto his side, holding her tight to him with the
very hand that had dealt her cruel punishment. She looked down at it, at his
fingers splayed wide over her belly, keeping her to him. She touched it lightly
at first, then pressed her hand over his and sucked in a deep, ragged breath,
feeling quiet and a sort of solace as silent tears slid down her face. Tears
not at the pain, not at the punishment she had endured, but perhaps more tears
of acceptance, of knowing her fate fully. Strangely, it was a welcome thing and
something had shifted between them. Maybe he too had come to that acceptance,
she wondered. Perhaps they both needed this: he to give and she to take this
punishment that didn’t wholly belong to her. Whatever it was, something had
shifted.
* * Blurb * *
In the aftermath of a plague which brought civilization to
its knees and left most of the world’s female population sterile, breeders—the
few women who remain fertile—have become a precious commodity. Breeders live in
relative comfort, but upon reaching adulthood they are tasked with bearing one
child after another to carry on the species. Frequent medical assessments keep the
breeders healthy and harsh punishments keep them in line.
As a breeder who has just come of age, Rowan knows she will
soon be little more than a slave, but when she dares to resist her fate the
penalty is severe. After a shameful, public chastisement and a thorough, humiliating
examination to determine her suitability for child-bearing, Rowan is given to a
savage from outside the community—a huge brute of a man named Silas—to be bred.
Against all expectations, Rowan finds herself drawn to her
new captor. Brave, ruggedly handsome, and even kind at times, Silas is
everything the men who enslaved her were not. When the time comes for him to
breed her, despite the circumstances something deep inside her begs for him to
take her long and hard. But while she soon finds herself longing to be his
forever, Rowan knows that eventually those who gave her to him will try to take
her back. When that day comes will Silas fight to keep her at his side even if it
means risking everything he loves?

I remember thinking how powerful that scene was as I read the book and I love re-reading it now. This book evoked such powerful emotions along the way. Great job, Natasha.

THis was a massive scene Natasha and I don't mean in length. It was so raw and real!
This story made me shiver at times, good shivers - very tense emotionally. Loved the book.
