“I might not be able to bring your old teammates back, but I can try to help you heal.”
He released a frustrated sigh. “That’s just it! I can’t heal until I get revenge.”
“On Mesa?” she asked.
“Yes! He’s the fucker who gave the order to kill my team. That entire op was a clusterfuck from start to end. We were given the wrong intel and he knew we were coming. There were so many goddamn soldiers. They surrounded us…ambushed us.” He pulled in a breath and squeezed his eyes shut, battling the memories. “I won’t rest until he’s dead.”
“Gray…” She touched his arm, but he pulled away.
“I need my revenge,” he gritted out. “Mesa is going to die and I’m going to make sure of it.”
“Maybe revenge isn’t the answer,” she said softly.
“Revenge is the only answer. I need it. More than anything.”
His harsh words left her chilled. “I don’t believe that. You have so much to live for and you’re a better man than that.”
“You’re wrong. And I’ve barely been hanging on. This new team has given me new life, but before that…” He let out a breath. “Nevermind. I don’t want to talk about it.”
“Maybe you should,” she said gently. “Maybe it’ll help.”
“I’m not gonna burden you with my shit.”
Her sorrowful man. Her big, hurting lion. She refused to give up on him. “Just so you know, I’m a pretty good listener.”
Gray clamped his jaw shut tight and a muscle flexed in his cheek.
God, he was stubborn. Aubrey sighed, reached up and cupped his stubbled face. “Whenever you’re ready…I’m here for you.”
His cloudy amber eyes didn’t meet hers. Just looked down, full of defeat.
“Okay?” she pressed. The desire to see his rare smile, to ease his pain, filled her. Maybe he wasn’t ready to talk yet, but she could still make him feel better.
Gray forced a nod. She let her hands drop from his face, sliding them up over his shoulders and pushing him down onto the edge of the bed. Their gazes collided and his was a golden storm of turmoil. Hers, an unyielding swirl of indigo.
“Let me make you feel good, Gray.” Her voice dropped. Low, seductive. She reached for his belt buckle and he pulled in a sharp breath. After unfastening it and the top button of his cargo pants, she slid a hand down into his boxer briefs, wrapping her fingers around his steel length. “Gray? I couldn’t bear it if something bad happened to you.”
He grunted a response and she began stroking him. His breathing turned raspy and Aubrey slowly lowered herself between his knees and released his straining cock. She looked up at him, licked her lips, then leaned in and ran her tongue over his engorged tip.
Gray’s big hand reached for her head, his fingers tangling in her hair. “You think you can persuade me by—” He groaned when she tightened her grip, taking his length into her mouth and sucking hard. “Christ.”
His hips jerked up and she gagged. Gray might be huge, but Aubrey wasn’t a quitter. Saliva and precum mixed in her mouth, leaking from her lips, and made his pulsating cock slick. Locking eyes with him, she kept working him until he was panting and desperate. Faster and harder.
“I’m gonna come,” he rasped, pulling her hair hard enough to sting. But it was a good sting.
Despite his warning, Aubrey didn’t slow down or pull back. Just encouraged him to blow. She was ready for him. Ready and wanting to take it all.
The orgasm hit him hard and she watched his eyes roll back as his cock exploded in her mouth. Hot, salty ropes hit the back of her throat and she swallowed them down. Then she released him with a pop and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand.
“Jesus.” He pulled her up onto his lap, appearing a little dumbstruck. Aubrey wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed a kiss to his stubbled jaw. He tilted her chin up and kissed her passionately, drinking deeply.
When they finally pulled apart, Gray arched a brow. “Did you just do that to get your way?”
“I was hoping it might butter you up a bit. Lower your defenses a little. Relax you enough to think things through logically. But, honestly, I’ve been dreaming about what your big cock would feel like in my mouth for a while now.”
“I’ve been thinking about it, too.”
“And?”
