Realizing what was about dd85637e09 to happen, Natasha squirmed. She had provoked b3c555332b him first with e8b5c7eaad her words, but 48ccaea812 she hadn’t expected 5753a25ad8 him to respond 1acc600626 so immediately.2ca29c60950b1e41

As Alexei f30c7ceb9d pressed her 14a9114cda again, Natasha a93f5c17a3 bit down 93eb513a22 on her 13e4b02801 lip, barely 611630c30e holding it 71c118fad8 in. The first scream had b28a0c1c0c slipped out from the 1957b256ff unfamiliar, unbearable pain, but 7fd1a1d2a2 this second wave—she had 07a0583106 to endure it.0c23affa7a3dfa34

A small, helpless moan 3bb9398557 slipped from Natasha’s lips, f5104bc9e2 and she flinched, biting d8aa5dcd69 down again.c7aceb1dca1ffa3a

When his frenzied f2f0b62803 movements slowed… when 702ffb32da he moved more e14c5e6842 gently… a strange 360dec9f39 pleasure seeped into a515a78d2b her without her 01ccbe36f6 realizing.

He had served 9bcc2dd9aa House Ivanov since e9e2e59c63 before Natasha’s mother, e1a0c518e3 Maria Ivanov, had 9766ab2f13 been born. And he 6c897c13ab was one 28cc58fdbc of the 6ef5840674 few servants 24705c1b6e who hadn’t 3a1f5abd30 fled during 6591154447 the Knulu 1a61936c84 rebellion.
