over until she shivered and gasped softly at the electric orgasm that rippled through her.
    Her hands were clenched in reaction, and her wrists ached. With Ozwin still wedged inside her, she was suddenly shy.
    Unable to escape him, she closed her eyes and averted her head. He pressed kisses on the corner of her eye and down her cheekbone until he reached her lips. He coaxed and persuaded until she turned her head toward him.
    Still keeping her eyes closed, Lee leaned up to return his kiss, welcoming the light strokes of his tongue, parting her lips in invitation.
    They remained locked together, kissing softly until his body finally let her go.
    Lee sighed and blushed as the column of flesh inside her relaxed to the point where his semen poured out of her. She was beyond embarrassed at the sensation.
    “Um, Ozwin, could you please release me now?” She shifted under him, but he didn’t move off her.
    His tone was lazy, and his eyes were glowing hotly again. “Why?”
    “So that I can clean up a little. I can feel…well, I can feel everything, and it is a little disconcerting.”
    Ozwin breathed deeply, “I like the idea of my seed inside you.”
    “Inside is fine, it is the liquid escaping that is getting a little cool.” She squirmed her hips again, and he sighed, moving away from her.
    If she was expecting him to release her, she was sorely mistaken. Ozwin walked to a door adjoining his chamber and disappeared. He was gone for a few minutes but returned with a bowl and soft cloths.
    Lee screwed her eyes tightly shut as he cleaned her, going so far as to wrap his fingers in a cloth to twist them inside her. A second cloth was drawn along her throat and across her skin, removing traces of her sweat and his.
    When he was done tidying her up, he crawled onto her again, weighing her down before he reached for her cuffs.
    Lee brought her arms down, frowning at the red and purple lines that banded her wrists. She had pulled harder than she thought. She was about to rub her left wrist with her right hand when Ozwin gripped her forearm and brought her left wrist to his mouth. He licked slowly, with attention to getting every inch of her bruised skin covered.
    “That is very nice, but what are you…oh.” The discolouration faded rapidly under his lapping tongue. “How did you do that?”
    His mouth quirked up at one corner as he lifted her other wrist to his lips, she was left wondering as his tongue made the rounds on her skin.
    When he finished, her skin was as clear and unblemished as it had been before the first cuff had snapped into place.
    With her unclasped, he rolled to one side and held her against him, pressing his face against the wealth of her pale hair.
    Lee curled against him and inhaled their combined scents. She let the rhythm of his breathing relax her, and as she drifted off, she could have sworn she heard him say, “Mine.”

Chapter Eight
    Lee was alone and uncuffed in Ozwin’s bed. A light knock on the door preceded the entrance of Ona.
    “I have a fresh gown, and Haz delivered some boots for you. Come along, Alpha Lee. There is a public dinner in the courtyard, and we need to get you presentable.” Ona grinned and didn’t even bat an eye at Lee’s tangle with the sheets.
    The older woman took her by the hand and tugged her free of the bedding.
    Lee was embarrassed, but she let herself be bullied into a shower, followed by a brusque towelling.
    Ona sat her down on a stool and brushed her hair for her.
    “Where is Ozwin?”
    Ona smiled, “He has to attend to the business of the settlement, including discipline of the bachelors for their exercise the other day.”
    After her hair was wrangled into a loose twist and pinned in place, Ona came toward her with a deep blue gown. The woman dropped it over her head and helped her tug it into place.
    “We don’t have anything in your size, so we had to improvise. The ruffles at the bottom make up the length I think. Oh, here are your boots.”
