“I felt ashamed. I still kind of do.”
“You did nothing wrong, and no one could hold your feelings against you.”
“Still, that I’d held on to such hatred scared me. I felt ashamed. I had to get away from you because I didn’t want you to see me like that.”
“From here on out, you’ll never have reason to hate again,” he tells me. “I promise you that.”
We get up, brush our teeth, and eat Pop-Tarts. While the pastry may not taste as good as anything at the Keep, who I’m sharing my meal with makes it divine.
“Where’s Hunter? Out scouting for chicks?”
“He, ah, won’t be around any longer.”
My brow knits together. “What happened?”
“I’d rather not talk about it.”
I nod, frowning. It’s easy to forget the men of the Keep put themselves in danger every day.
“Cole said we could spend a few days at the safe house if you’d like. I can understand if you want to get back to—”
“I just want to be with you,” I rush out.
He smiles. “You don’t know how good that makes me feel.”
“I was…terrified. And so very stupid.”
His face darkens. “Did I get there too late? Did they hurt you?”
“No! Caspian was promising women like me to the men, and then the room started shaking. Drywall was even coming loose.”
“That must have been scary.”
“It was, but it seems to have worked out for me.”
Suddenly, an urge overcomes me. One I’m not entirely sure I’m prepared for, but I’m helpless to deny.
I slide to my knees and position myself between Alistair’s legs as he looks on in confusion.
Even with his hair messy, he’s still impossibly handsome, able to melt me with a wry grin.
“You don’t owe me anything,” Alistair says.
I lick my lips teasingly. “Maybe I owe it to myself.”
He snickers.
“Seriously. Since you’ve been gone, I’ve dreamed of the way you taste. But my curiosity started before that. Remember when you walked in on me touching myself?”
“How could I forget?”
“That was one of the things I was thinking about.”
“Is that so?”
“Does that surprise you? I wasn’t just denying you all those months. I was denying myself. I just hadn’t realized it.” With shaky hands, I undo his pants, unleashing his cock, which is so engorged, I’m not entirely sure I’ll be able to do anything more than suck on the head.
“This your first time?”
