That was my chance, and now it’s ruined.
“Shit,” Ace murmurs, bending down beside me. His thumb rubs across my eyebrow, the stinging causing me to wince. The throbbing gets heavier in my head. Warmth runs down my face and I have to close my eyes to keep the blood from running into them. “Why did you have to do that?” I don’t know if it’s my injury making me hear things but I think I hear panic in his voice.
My body relaxes into the carpet, my brain getting fuzzier by the second. Strong arms pick up my body, my face resting against the hard muscles of his chest. “Fuck,” he whispers to himself.
My consciousness is withering away and all I can think about is how I’m going to die at the hands of Ace Lennox.
Matt, I hope you have a great life and find someone that makes you happy and keeps you sane, because I won’t be around to keep you from doing stupid shit.
I smile to myself as the blackness completely consumes me.
Maybe I can go home to my family, for real this time.
My head bounces off the seat as Ace places me in the SUV. I wasn’t out for long, but my head is still aching. When Ace walked out of the apartment building with me in his arms, keeping my laptop safely tucked between our bodies, Theon and Blais were already in the car waiting.
Blais’ eyes meet mine in the rearview mirror. “It’s okay, Blais.” I can see the tension in his dark eyes as his grin suddenly drops. It’s obvious he can feel the tension radiating off Ace and I. Blais probably thinks Ace did this on purpose, and I honestly don’t care if he does; I just don’t want him to look at me the way he is. Like he would kill his brother for hurting me and not think twice about it. That makes all this shit harder.
Blais spins around in the passenger seat staring at me with those heated, brown eyes. He reaches his hand out, touching my face with his large, rough palm. His fingers delicately trace my eyebrow, forcing a hiss to leave me as I flinch back.
Pulling away, his index finger is coated in my blood. Bringing my hand up, I touch the tender spot that’s still bleeding from where I smacked my head mid-wrestling for the phone. Unfortunately, I didn’t win that battle.
Blais continues to stare at me while he sucks my blood off his fingers. A low moan leaves his lips as his eyes darken. I adjust in my seat clenching my thighs together, not understanding why the hell I find that so hot. His eyes never leave mine and I feel like I’m going to combust on the spot. The imminent blush makes my entire face heat up, turning it into a bright red shade.
You literally just fucked Ace. Calm the hell down.
Blais turns his glare to Ace, who’s standing beside me with the door open. His lip curls in a snarl while staring Ace down. The look in his eyes says he’s not done with Ace, but he’ll have to deal with that later. Blais smirks before turning to face forward, looking out the window. I look over his lap, and see exactly what my blood did to him. He might be pissed at Ace, but he’s still sporting a very large boner in the front of his pants, not even ashamed enough to hide it.
Before we leave, Ace leans over, his body stiff while aggressively blindfolding me, so I can’t see where we’re going. His fingers brush across my cheek, and I feel that exact same sizzle that rushed through me when we were having sex. My body lights up from his presence, and I try to calm it back down.
He secures my arms again behind my back putting another zip tie around them, making sure they’re tight enough to nearly cut off my circulation, before sliding in the backseat beside me. I was hoping he'd miraculously forget to secure me so I could see exactly where we’re going. Unfortunately, he’s not dumb.
I still can’t believe what happened in there. How I fucking loved the way he was dominant, controlling, and possessive. The idea of having all of them has crossed my mind more times than I’d like to admit but getting to actually experience the way Ace is when he’s angry fucking, was worth it. I’d be a liar if I said Ace’s gun in my mouth didn’t turn me on. Damn, my heart is still pounding thinking about that rush.
His rough grip on my hips is still firmly imprinted into my mind and I’m pretty sure I can still sense his lingering touch. My intentions haven’t deterred from killing him, but if his dick is thrown into the mix for working off his anger, I wouldn’t be mad.
If I get out of here, I promise to get professional help.I was so damn close.I was fucking ready to call Chief and Matt to come get me, but now all I can think about is reliving our time together. I’m so confused about what I want, it's messing with my mind. One second I’m ready to leave, and the next I want to stay forever.
The entire ride is silent with only the soft hum of the radio playing low throughout the SUV. It wasn’t playing on the way here, so my guess is Blais turned it on to fill the time while waiting on us. Tension fills the vehicle, most of it coming from Ace, but before I was blindfolded, I could see Theon tightly gripping the steering wheel, his jaw clenched tight. He usually wears a stone-cold expression, but he seemed angrier than usual.
A crunch of gravel beneath the tires lets me know we’re close to their house, out in the middle of nowhere… Well, at least that’s what they claim. I haven’t had the chance to prove whether or not that’s true, but I intend to find out.
It’s interesting how aware you become of everything when you can’t see. Like the way the vehicle shifts at each turn we take, the heavy breathing coming from Ace to my right, and a light tapping sound coming from the front of the SUV. My senses are extremely heightened like this, and it’s making me irritated.
If I were in another situation getting blindfolded by three sexy men, I think I’d be into it, but right now, it makes me jumpy. They could do anything to me and I wouldn’t know. As far as I know, we’re going back to their lair, but maybe they’re taking me to a giant cliff to push me off, or maybe they’re taking me to a lake to drown me, recreating my trauma.
With these three, you truly never know.
They needed access to my computer, but now that they have it, I’m sure they could throw money around and find someone tech savvy enough to find the hidden encrypted system with all my files on it. As much as I’d like to claim I’m useful to them, am I really?
I’m not sure giving it to them was the best idea, but it’s the only thing I could do. I thought I was going to be sneaky enough to pull a gun on Ace or text for help, but I wasn’t.
Shaking off the thoughts, I lean into the seat as much as I can, pressing my back and hands into the leather. My wrists are sore from the ties, but my head is throbbing even worse now from Theon’s terrible driving. He’s worse than Ace.
Eventually the vehicle stops. The sound of a garage door closing hits my ears and a rough hand grips my upper arm after unbuckling my seatbelt. At least they fastened me in this time so I wasn’t being thrown around the whole ride. I’m pulled from the SUV, stumbling as I try to gain my balance. The blindfold is ripped off my face as a large chest presses into mine. Theon’s massive body stands directly in front of me, his masculine woodsy scent wafting off him.
He smells so fucking delicious. Probably my favorite smell ever.
He looks down at me, his gorgeous hazel eyes appear greener with golden brown specks in them. His face remains neutral...nothing new there. His eyes tour the cut on my head, taking it in. Trying to read him isn’t easy; he’s like a blank wall refusing to give me anything.
