The torture was exquisite as Shira bobbed up and down, gradually taking more of him with each downward plunge. He could feel his pleasure growing, and he needed more. Putting his hands on her head, he stilled her movements, and she looked up at him with concern.

Wanting to ease her mind, he told her, “Ride me, habibti.” His voice was husky with desire, but it was also strained. “I want to share my pleasure with you, and I won’t be able to, if you keep that up.” Tugging on her, he helped her rise up, and she eagerly straddled his hips.

Shifting up on one leg, she positioned his cock before slowly sitting back down. They both moaned, and Shira quivered above him. Gripping her hips, he encouraged her to begin moving. “Set the pace.”

Without further encouragement, Shira placed her hands on his chest as she experimented with different movements, each one delightful in its own way. His eyes were half open as he watched the emotions flicker across her face. When she found one that appealed the most to her, she flexed her pelvis back and forth.

Needing more, Kale began to thrust up in time to her movements, and he watched her eyes light up. Soon enough, she picked up the pace, and he matched her speed and tempo. She leaned back, riding him as she chased her pleasure. Her movements became erratic the closer she got, and she moaned loudly.

Tightening his hands on her hips, he lifted her higher, encouraging her to fall harder on top of him. With a wail, she called out his name and trembled above him, her muscles tightening around him. It became too much for him and with his own shout, he slammed up into her, holding her tight while she milked him.

Spent, Shira collapsed on top of him, and he held her tightly. Kissing the top of her head, he lightly stroked her back and wondered if it was too soon to tell her that he loved her.

KALE

Kamal stopped his brother the next morning after breakfast, sending Shira on ahead to finish packing for the flight back to America. “We received some disturbing intelligence this morning.”

“More trouble with the refugees?” Kale asked.

“No. It seems that the faction that overthrew their government is divided on the issue of their return home. I will be traveling to meet with the new leaders and ensure that they understand these refugees need to return. We are not in a position to find permanent housing for so many.”

“Is that going to be a problem?”

“No, I don’t believe so, but threats have been made against Jawhara, specifically the royal family, if the refugees are allowed to cross the border.”

Kale was stunned. “They would attack us personally for allowing their own countrymen to return to Sumari?”

Kamal nodded. “Yes. I am under no illusions that my life is secure. I am always being threatened. My concern is for Erin and Shira at this point. I tell you this so that you will be extra cautious during your travels. Six weeks is a long time to be on your guard, and while in America, you will not have the same level of protection that you have here.”

“I’ll see to the protection of Shira and myself. What about Erin?”

His brother shook his head, and he could see the frustration on his face before he spoke. “My future bride is incredibly stubborn and seems resistant to doing what’s best for her. Talib has been made aware of the circumstances and has been instructed to make the appropriate calls to secure adequate security. In the meantime, I will see how my meeting with the delegation goes. If everything can be settled peacefully, I will go to America and bring her back myself.”

“Slade’s group?” Kale asked, speaking of his college roommate who had become an FBI agent and now owned a private security company. His employees were mostly former special forces, and they excelled in personal security details and search-and-rescue operations. Being a private company, they were able to enter countries the US military could not, and they were not held to the same rules as the government groups. Well, none that they would admit to. It worked well for everyone involved, and he’d always considered Slade a friend.

“Yes. I understand that Slade is putting several of his best men on this case. He also has a new woman working for him, and she has been assigned to the team to provide protection for Shira and Erin in places the men cannot go.”

“Like public restrooms.” Kale spoke what they were both thinking. Many abductions of world leaders occurred in public facilities and dressing rooms where security guards of the opposite sex could not follow their clients. It made them very vulnerable and was an access point that well-trained kidnappers didn’t often pass up.

Kale thought about his former roommate and couldn’t help asking, “Any idea why he hired a woman? That’s not his style. He was completely against women in special forces when we were in college.”

“I asked Talib the same question. It seems that PJ, the woman in question, is the sister of a man Slade was unable to save during his last operation for the FBI. She joined the military after her brother’s death and when she got out, demanded a job from Slade. He gave it to her.”

“Wow! That is not like him.” Kale wondered if his old friend had changed his views or if there was something special about this particular woman. He shook his head. “I look forward to meeting his team. He only hires the best.”

“That is why he has been contacted. I will let you know if the threat is still active. If so, I will want a small detail to accompany you back to Jawhara. Our palace bodyguards are good at their jobs, but a fresh look at our security measures would be beneficial.”

“I agree.” Glancing at the time, he shook Kamal’s hand. “I’ll send you an update on your woman when we arrive.”

Kamal nodded, saying nothing. Kale gave his brother one last look and then headed off to finish his own packing.

SHIRA

The flight home was much the same as the flight to Jawhara had been three weeks ago. The only difference—this time when Kale suggested she make use of the luxurious bedroom, he joined her.
