But first, Ineedto be inside of her before anything else happens.

Her body moves down mine. Well, her stomach does as her toes touch the floor, then she tilts her head back, those eyes finding mine. She doesn’t speak, and neither do I. There is a hell of a lot unsaid in this moment, but it will all have to wait.

She reaches for my cut, sliding it off my shoulders, and lets it fall to the floor. Though it doesn’t stay there for long. Reaching down, I pick it up and toss it onto the top of the dresser. Her gaze is focused on mine. There is nowhere she looks except at me. My lips twitch into a small smile as I feel her fingers at the hem of my tee.

Slowly, she slides the shirt up my torso, her fingers gliding over my skin. My muscles twitch with every touch from her, clenching and silently begging for more.

Lifting my hand, I wrap my finger around her wrist to halt her movement. With my other hand, I grasp the neck of my shirt and tug it over my head, tossing it onto the floor to join my cut.

Still gripping her wrist, I gently pull her toward me with one firm tug. She gasps and lifts her other hand, placing it on the center of my chest, her eyes wide. I dip my chin slightly to touch my mouth to hers, my lips brushing hers before I speak against them.

“I’m going to fuck you. I won’t do it hard, but I will be fucking you, and when we’re done, you’re going to tell me everything,” I murmur against her lips.

She tries to pull away from me, but I don’t let her move even an inch. Once I have her body against mine, my mouth on hers, I release one of my hands and bury my fingers in her hair, gripping the strands firmly.

Tilting my head to the side, I slip my tongue inside her mouth again and fully taste her. Thoroughly taste her. I’ve missed her too much. I nibble on her bottom lip before I break the kiss and slide my lips down the side of her throat, then I lift my head, my gaze finding hers.

My fingers quickly work her pants open, then I push them down over her hips and past her thighs. She kicks them off, her lips curved up into a smile before I guide her to the bed. Slowly, she sinks down on the mattress.

I don’t give her even a moment to think about any of this. I can see the flickering doubt behind her eyes, but I know deep down she doesn’t doubt shit. She still came to me when she thought she was in immediate danger, even if it wasn’t when or how I would have liked her to.

She still came.

Unbuckling my pants, I push them down along with my underwear and wrap my fingers around my length. I stroke myself, my eyes never leaving hers, then my lips twitch when I notice that she’s panting.

Releasing myself, I reach for her ankles and slowly glide my fingers up the outsides of her legs, her thighs, her hips, then move forward until my hips are between her thighs, and my length rests against her warm wet center.

Placing my palms flat on the mattress at the side of her head, my arms straight, hovering above her, I look down into her beautiful face as I slide inside her wet heat. She whimpers, her body ready and waiting with anticipation for me.

“Never again do you take this from me,” I grind out.

Her lips part, and her eyes narrow. I can tell she wants to talk back, to be a smart-ass. There is a time and place for that. This is not it. Shaking my head once, I slide all the way inside of her, watching as she gasps and her breath hitches.

“Never again, Reese. You will never walk away from me again. I don’t give a fuck what is happening. We fight—together.”

ChapterFifteen

AGONY

Gathering Reese in my arms,I pull her body against mine. Unable to stop myself, I curve my hand against her belly. I don’t know how far along she is. If the baby is kicking, or if she even knows what it is, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that she’s here now.

“You want to tell me your story?” I murmur, touching my lips to her cheek.

There is a moment of silence before she rolls onto her back with a heavy sigh and stares up at the ceiling. I know she doesn’t want to tell me, but she doesn’t have a choice. The time has come. She’s run, and there is nowhere else to go because I won’t let her get away.

Never again.

“No, I really don’t,” she whispers.

I don’t say anything immediately. She has her entire life to tell me the details, but I do need to know about this guy, if nothing else. Keeping my hand on her belly for another moment, I glide it up her body and stop in the center of her chest.

“Buttercup, you’re gonna have to tell me the basics. I need to know what I’m dealing with when it comes to this guy.”

Reese wraps her fingers around my wrist, her head turning to the side as her eyes find mine. “I don’t want to tell you,” she whispers.

I don’t take my eyes off hers. I also don’t say anything, but I do move my hand and wrap my fingers around the side of her neck as I wait for her to tell me what the fuck the situation is with this asshole.

“I was stupid and young. He was older, and I thought he loved me. He didn’t love me. He groomed me and abused me. Then the control and abuse became too much, so I ran. When I did, he followed, and he dragged me back, then I ran again. It became almost a game until five years ago when I got away for good.”
