“He didn’t see Gideon coming up from behind you,” I press.
The anger in Macsen’s eyes when he looks at me is venomous, even if I know it’s not directed at me, I still feel a chill run up my spine by the force of it.
“We were both standing in front of you.There was only one fucking star in your hand, Lu.One.You couldn’t have killed us both with one fucking star.If you wanted to kill me you wouldn’t have survived it yourself so what was the fucking point in doing it?”he snarls.“He knew what the fuck he was doing when he pulled the trigger.Shoot to fucking kill.Instinct or not?The fucker is off his damn rocker.He can thank his lucky stars I only shot him in the damn leg.Let’s hope he doesn’t come near me soon ’cause I still want to kill the fucker.”
My lips part and yet words are lacking.Shit.I didn’t see it that way.Is Macsen right?Why would Jocko want me dead?I mean, yeah...I might have hurt his feelings when I managed to get the jump on him and gave him a sedative, so I was able to kidnap Livi and Kenz, but come on...we didn’t even know one another back then.Besides, I didn’t hurt anyone and was following orders from my father.
Macsen turns and steps under the steaming water.Not caring about both my wounds, I strip away all my clothes and join Macsen.Bringing my body close to his, I hug him from behind.He stays rigid for a few breaths before he turns and wraps me in a crushing hug, burying his head into the crook of my neck.
We both take a shuddering breath, knowing deep down things could have gone terribly wrong tonight.
CHAPTER TWENTY
–MACSEN –
I could have fucking lost her.Both of them.Tightening my arms, I breathe her in while the warm water rains down on our naked bodies.The only reason I’m not burning down the world to get to Jocko and tear him to fucking shreds is the fact that she’s in my arms, breathing and very much alive.
This wasn’t some accident or a misinterpreted action.Jocko was looking for a reason to kill her and took it.He never trusted her, never gave her a clean fucking chance.If he did?He would have curbed the instinct to fire a bullet, because I saw the ninja star heading for me the same way he did, and I didn’t fucking shoot.
The only difference between us is the trust I have in my woman.Fuck.I’m almost positive any club brother standing next to me wouldn’t have simply pulled the trigger the way Jocko did.There’s no damn excuse if you ask me.
Her nails rake my scalp and I take a shuddering breath.Pulling back, I let my mouth find hers and with closed eyes I let myself get lost in our kiss.The passion is simmering between us, making my cock stir and harden.
The craving to feel her tight pussy around my cock is overwhelming and I reach down to grab her ass in my hands.Turning, I place her back against the tiles, and she automatically wraps her legs around my waist.
My hips flex, and I feel the tip of my cock slip through the slick lips of her pussy.I groan and give another slight thrust, sinking inside her greedy hot center.The sensation of being sucked inside her body is my kind of paradise, and I can feel the anger and fear seep from my bones.
My mouth is right next to her ear when I whisper the words, “Mine from top to bottom.The only woman capable of giving me ultimate pleasure.”I lazily thrust my hips back and forth.“I won’t let anything, or anyone, shatter what we have.Never.You hear me.No going back.Mine.”
“Yours,” she croons and rakes her nails over my back.
I hiss at the feel of the pleasure and pain as she squeezes my cock with her inner walls.Fucking perfect.Each thrust in, sliding out, and right back in, is climbing toward a joined euphoria.An experience which is exceptional because sex is all about getting off.With us our bodies are moving in sync due to a united adoration, sparks fueling our chemistry.
Feelings, a connection, a bond, a relationship...one...all...it’s a unity ignited by rapture, driven by our hearts, and evolving in our minds.There is no going back.Especially when I pinch her clit and she instantly falls apart in my arms.Once, twice, three more times I pump inside her and shove myself balls-deep to release a stream of cum that makes my whole damn body shake by the force of it.
I keep her in my arms and bury my head into the crook of her neck.Slowly, she lets her legs slide off my waist and I place her down on her feet.The tender look in her eyes makes my damn heart squeeze tight inside my chest.
