Welcome Victoria Vallo back to my blog - she's sharing an excerpt from her third and final Imprisoned book -- Claimed.

If you commit a crime on Vaharis 6, there’s more than one way to work off your sentence…

Grim prepares for his prison sentence after his family abandons him, knowing he’s going to have to make lots of tough choices in order to survive. But then someone comes for him, and Grim’s shocked to find that he knows his new keeper. He’s even more shocked when he learns why Duncan was willing to pay for his freedom.

Duncan fell first in lust and then in love with Grim years ago, but his status as a servant kept him from acting. Now, he’s the one with the money and power, and Grim is going to learn to obey and submit the way Duncan has always wanted him to.

Excerpt

Grim woke up alone, the covers tucked up around him. Looking out the window to the right of the large bed, he saw the sun low in the sky. Was it sunset, or had he somehow slept through the rest of the day and then through the night as well? He got up and found his discarded robe draped over the end of the bed. He tied the robe around him again and walked out of the bedroom. Duncan sat in the large main room working at the com station.
He spoke quietly to someone through a headset, and Grim could see someone on a smaller screen on the right side. Vague memories of Duncan making calls while they were on the ship drifted back to him, but he realized he still had no idea what Duncan did for a living.

He must do well if he could afford to free me. That thought made Grim wonder. How much had Duncan paid? How much had he been willing to pay? Though he didn’t know where Duncan lived now, it was obvious the man wasn’t lying about having rushed to Grim’s aid. 

There had to be a kind of love in that, right?

Grim moved away and went into the kitchenette and got a glass of water. He stood at the sink drinking it, and before long Duncan finished his call and came into the room.

“There’s food in the refrigerator. You were sleeping so soundly I couldn’t make myself wake you,” Duncan said. “I ordered lots of different things, counting on you still having the same taste in food.”

“Thank you,” he said quietly, rubbing his left eye. “What time is it?”

“About seven in the morning here. I figured you probably had trouble sleeping at the prison.”

“Yeah, hard to relax.” Grim sighed and put his glass down. “Guess we need to talk.”

“About what?”

Grim couldn’t help gaping at the other man. “Everything. The past. What’s happening right now. What happened yesterday.”

“We can talk about whatever you like, but I think we’ve settled one thing.” He came closer and drew Grim to him. “You’re mine. We belong together.” His breath was warm on Grim’s ear as he added, “Being with you was perfect.”

Grim ignored that part. “But I’m not a possession. My sentence was six months. You can’t threaten me any longer than that because your contract with the prison will be up then.”

“Six months is more than enough time to make you see sense.”

Grim pulled away. “See sense? There you go again.”

“So you didn’t enjoy being with me yesterday?”

Grim thought about lying, but what would be the point? “It was amazing, but I’ve had great sex before. I’m sure you have, too.”

“Yes, but nothing like what we shared. I’ve never felt such an urge to claim someone, to fill them with my cum.”

Grim knew this conversation would lead them straight back to the bedroom, a place where Duncan was the one who held all the power. “But you’re referring to me giving in to you as seeing sense, as if I’m stupid or something if I reject you.” He blew his breath out in a loud huff and shook his head. “Can we just eat and do something normal? I know I’m being tracked, so I won’t run away. Let’s just, you know, do something else besides talk about the past and fucking.”

“Fine with me. You were the one who wanted to talk,” Duncan said with a grin.

Grim scowled at him. “Then I take it back. I’m not ready for that yet.”


“If you say so,” Duncan said softly before walking across the room.

Welcome Victoria Vallo to my blog this Sunday.  She's sharing not one but TWO books from her Imprisoned series - Shackled and Mated.

SHACKLED

If you commit a crime on Vaharis 6, there’s more than one way to work off your sentence…

Matthew knows today is his last chance. If he doesn’t get an offer to work off his sentence outside the prison’s walls, he’ll be sent deeper into the hellish place and left at the mercy of the other prisoners.

Varan only wants someone to do his grunt work for him, but when he sees Matthew, something from his past takes hold of him again. He wants to make the man submit in every way, and the prison warden’s greed makes it possible for him to buy the chance to do exactly that.

So Matthew is saved at the last possible moment… only to find himself bound to a man who seems determined to break and possess him, body and soul.

MATED

If you commit a crime on Vaharis 6, there’s more than one way to work off your sentence…

Sam doesn’t know what to think when his “alternative sentence” ends up being an arranged courtship with another male panther shifter. It’s better than going to prison, but Sam can’t help worrying when he finds out how much was paid for his freedom … and how determined his new keeper is to make Sam his true mate.

Laxus has been shunned by other shifters for many reasons, including his preference for male lovers. He’s more than willing to rescue Sam from the horrors of prison life, especially when he sees Sam’s reaction to his touch. As the younger man tries to deny his reactions, Laxus becomes more resolute than ever to seduce Sam and work his way into his heart.

As Varan prepared their dinner, he asked himself why he’d admitted that Matthew reminded him of someone. If Matthew was smart, he’d end up using that information against Varan. He couldn’t let Matthew do that to him. Letting this man best him would simply drive the knife of his first heartache deeper. He finished with the food—chunks of rehydrated meat and vegetables he’d bought on Vaharis 6—and carried two plates to the bedroom.

Matthew lay there with his eyes closed, but he stirred and looked up when he realized he wasn’t alone. Varan set the food down and unbound Matthew. He put the cuffs back on, again placing his hands behind his back. Varan sat on the bed beside him and reached for one plate.

“Are you allergic to anything? The fresh veggies are from Vaharis. I get fresh when I can. Everything else is rehydrated. We’ll be stopping frequently enough we won’t have to live off it.” He held up a chunk of meat.

Matthew just stared at him. “You’re going to feed me?”

Varan smiled. It was part of his plan to force a bond, to make Matthew depend on him for everything. “I want to.” That was true, actually. He found it erotic in a way.

Matthew hesitated and chewed his lower lip. “No,” he said after a long time. “I’m not allergic to anything.”

“Good.” Varan put the meat to Matthew’s lips.

Matthew opened his mouth, and he actually moaned as he chewed. Then he looked down as if embarrassed.

“Don’t be ashamed. I know the prison food was awful,” Varan said. “My last charge was suffering severe malnutrition. I had to put him on fluids the first few days.”

“Did you treat him this way, too?” Matthew asked.

Varan fed him another piece of meat. “No. I’ve been a keeper twice. It was purely business.” He shrugged one shoulder. “They both seemed willing enough, but…” He didn’t know what he wished to say.

“But?”

Varan dipped the fork into the veggies. “I didn’t want them.”

“They weren’t attractive?”

“No. They were very handsome. Nice bodies.”

Matthew looked at the plate of food. “But I remind you of someone.” His gaze held a little fear, as if he worried Varan would be angry.

“Yes.”

Matthew hesitated to take the next bite, but eventually he opened his mouth. After he’d swallowed, he said, “You don’t want me to ask, but the best way to prevent that would’ve been not telling me at all.”

“I’m very aware of my mistake.”

“It’s hard not to be curious.”

Matthew stopped asking questions and focused on eating, obviously very hungry. Varan smiled as he spooned up the last of the food. “Perhaps it’s a test. Or maybe I want you to ask so I can punish you.” 

“Punish me how?” Matthew asked, shrinking back a little.

Varan set the plate aside and leaned in close. “It would be a very sensual experience, though there might be a little pain. It would lead to pleasure by the time I was done.”

“You said I shouldn’t be afraid.”

Kissing Matthew’s neck, Varan said, “And you shouldn’t be. I won’t truly harm you.”

After giving Matthew some water, he unbound him so he could relieve himself. He left Matthew alone in the bathroom and ate his food. Matthew took a long time, and Varan wondered what the younger man was thinking. When Matthew finally came out, he got some insight into that.

“Do I have to do anything but suck your cock tonight?” Matthew asked.

“Blunt. I like that.”

Matthew rubbed his wrists. “I was wondering what I could do in exchange for not being bound all the time.”

“It will only be when we’re alone. Out in public, I’ll have a collar and leash for you.” He leaned back on his elbows on the bed, waiting for Matthew’s reaction.

“Leash?”

Varan nodded slowly. “I won’t make you crawl, but yes, a leash. You’ve seen them before, on slaves and submissives. Pets, too.”

“I’m not any of those things.”

Varan stood up and went over to him. “But you are mine to do with as I please. If you displease me, I can send you back.”

“Naked and bound and scared of being punished. That’s what you want in a lover?” Matthew’s eyes hardened now, the fire in them exciting Varan.

“Naked and bound, yes. Not so much scared as submissive. You’ve done well so far.” He snaked one arm around Matthew. “Don’t spoil it, little one.”

“Don’t spoil my six months of sexual slavery? Are you kidding?”

Varan tightened his grip. “I said I won’t fuck you until you truly want me.”

“But you’re gonna make me suck your cock tonight, right?”

“You didn’t protest when I pleasured you earlier. You even thanked me after I got you off and swallowed your load.”

Matthew looked away. “I don’t know why I did that.”

Varan dragged Matthew with him and threw him down on the bed. “Because you meant it. You’re grateful you ended up in the hands of a man who didn’t rape you the moment you came into his possession.” He climbed on top of Matthew. “A man who gets you hard the way I do.”
