It takes a second to register what he is saying. “Take you where?”
His confused brows scrunch together. “Back to my apartment. I'll need to get it sorted before I leave.”
“What the fuck do you mean leave?” I bellow, unable to hold in the panic. It comes out as aggression instead. Of course, he isn’t bothered by this.
“Well, I'm gonna have to find somewhere else to live, Lev. I can't stay in that apartment. Apart from the obvious, I couldn't afford to live there on my own anyway. Why are you so mad?”
I sag a little in relief. He means finding a new apartment, not leaving here, not leaving me.Oh fuck off, pussy.
My meaning must register with Aaron. “Oh, you thought I meant leaving Grinston. Do you not listen to anything I say? I told you earlier, you are not getting rid of me. I'm here to stay whether you like it or not.” He grins and moves over to me, climbing onto my lap. I’m unable to resist grabbing his juicy ass, kneading the perfect mounds in my hands. The perfect stress relief.
“You can stay here,” I say without thinking. Why the fuck did I say that? Are feelings contagious?
His eyes are as wide as saucers. “You want me to move in here, with you and your brother?” he asks.
“Why not? Be easier access, and then I can fuck you when I want.”
“Huh. I suppose I could move in.”
“I wasn't asking, doe.” I start sucking on his neck, adding extra bruises to the ones I left yesterday, his skin looks perfect with my marks. Owned by Lev Kozlov. May have to get that tattooed on his neck so it’s clear to others.
“Okay,” he says, as easy as that. “But I do need to go get my stuff. I can't keep wearing the same pants, plus I need to clear out the guys’ stuff.”
“You ain't touching shit. I'll get the boys to deal with that, burn it if we have to. Just get your own stuff,” I say.
“I need to find a job too,” he murmurs.
“Are you trying to piss me off?”
He barks out a laugh. “Why the fuck would me working piss you off, Lev? I told you that I wanted out of the crew.”
“You will work with me, and for me,” I confirm, ideas running through my head, mainly of him sucking me off under my desk.
“Doing what exactly, dancing at the club?” he sasses, and I spank him hard on the ass. “Ouch, I was kidding.”
“Watch the attitude, doe,” I warn and his eyes glaze over, so needy. “You can work as an enforcer alongside me and help out at the clubs when needed. You can also be my cockwarmer.”
“Cockwarmer? Are you asking me to be your on-call whore?” I get the impression he wouldn't mind that job.
“I'm not asking, I'm telling you that you will work alongside us and we will find you a place, but you won't be working in the clubs behind the bar or waiting. I don't care that Seb does it. I won't have anyone look at you or touch you.”
“Fuck, Lev, I love it when you talk to me like that.” He rolls his hips into my lap.
“You'll be happy here then. I don't plan on changing.”
“I wouldn't want you to.” He presses a kiss on my lips that has me pushing my groin up into his, holding onto that tight ass while I rut against that gorgeous body.
Mine.He is all mine.
Chapter 36 - Aaron
AsmuchasIwanted to stay in bed with Lev, I need to get my stuff and get this part over with. I didn't want to prolong going back to the apartment, I just want this day to be full of closure, so I can shut that door forever. It's the only way I know I can move forward.
Lev walks me into the apartment, hand gripping my neck, which he seems to prefer over holding hands, and I actually prefer it too. I like him guiding me and showing ownership. His touch gives me clarity of mind, and I’m less chaotic.
“Don't look at anything, just lead us to your room,” he says.
Lev encourages me to move toward the hallway to my room. A moment of sadness washes over me when I see Shay's bedroom door. I really wish it would have turned out different for him, and I get why he chose his sister over me. We found out that Jake was threatening to expose her and her child’s whereabouts to her abusive ex who also wanted custody of the child. He used it as a way to keep Shay around.
