Silas understood me. He truly,trulyunderstood. “Silas… that would be… incredible.”

He pulled me closer, wrapping his arms around me. “It will be, baby. I’ll make it happen. I will give you the world… and we will build a life together. Just you and me.” He kissed me. A tender and reassuring kiss that sealed his promises to me.

We stayed like that for a long time, wrapped in each other’s embrace. It wouldn’t be easy, leaving everything behind, but with Silas at my side, I knew everything would be okay.

“You have to trust me,” he whispered in my ear.

“I do trust you.”

Silas nodded. “I have a plan… to ensure no one will follow us.”

My brow furrowed, listening.

“I will put everything we need in my truck, including my bike… I will move it somewhere safe…” he paused. “I intend to burn this place to the ground… with my uncle Joe, my phone, and anything else traceable in it. Leaving no trace of me, they’ll think I’m dead, and they will never suspect that you were ever here in the first place... no loose ends… and then we will leave here… get to the truck… and road trip to Vegas. Once we’re there… we will change our names, and we will start new.”

I was scared to ask how he could kill someone so easily. He said he killed before, but I didn’t dare ask. I didn’t want to know. I said nothing, instead I nodded, resting my head against his chest. He pulled me closer, holding me within his embrace.

“Everything will be okay, I promise. I will take care of you,” he vowed.

I just hoped that was the truth. I couldn’t imagine a life without him, my world revolved around him, and in all honesty — there was nothing I wanted more than to spend the rest of my life at his side, as ridiculous as it may sound.

Silas

The shower was running when I came down the stairs. A smirk grew from the corners of my lips, listening to Rosalie hum. Chewing my bottom lip, I approached the bathroom door she left cracked open. I watched her, the water running down her bare flesh. I raked my tongue across my teeth, my bulge pressed against the fabric of my pants. It was uncomfortable.

Fuck she made me so hard just by the sight of her.

My thoughts drifted to a few nights prior when I had taken her virginity. I tilted my head to the side, watching the suds of her conditioner travel down her breasts, those sexy pierced nipples and her slim little figure.

Rosalie turned to me, opening her eyes nearly two minutes later. Her face turned bright red. Lowering her hands from her hair. “Silas?”

I smiled. “You have no idea how much pleasure it brings me just by hearing my name leave those plush lips of yours… let alone watching you.” I stepped forward into the bathroom, closing the door behind me.

She turned away, proceeding to wash her hair. “I don’t mind if you want to watch.”

“And what if I want to join you?”

Rosalie smiled.

I lifted my arms, tearing my shirt off along with the rest of my clothes. My hardened cock sprung from within the confines of my boxers. Making my way into the shower, I closed the steamy glass door behind me. My hands slid to Rosalie’s hips and my fingers kneaded her flesh.

“Silas,” she mewled.

God, this woman. She would be my undoing.

“Turn around and look at me, pretty girl…” I gently instructed.

Rosalie’s eyes flickered to meet mine. I cupped her face with my fingers, guiding her jaw upwards so I could get a really nice look at her. “You want to be a good girl for me, sweetheart?” I asked.

She nodded slightly.

“Say it, tell me you want to be my good girl.”

“I want to be your good girl, Silas,” Rosalie replied, doing as told.

“Mmm… good girl,” I praised, “Stick your tongue out for me, let me see that pretty little throat of yours.” She hesitated, then opened her mouth. Her throat wasn’t all that big, and truly I was concerned that my cock wouldn’t fit in that pretty little mouth of hers. I would have to be gentle. “Get on your knees.”
