“Where are you taking me?” I ask with a smile, happiness still has me in a chokehold from last night’s kill.
“Almost there,” is the only reply he gives me. We come to a stop next to a park. Only a few kids are out playing, and I frown. I hate being forced to listen to children screaming. I’m so distracted by the thought of having to be around them, that I don’t realize Vander got out of the car until he opens the door for me. He reaches his hand out for me to grab and holds a blanket in the other.
“What the fuck are you up to?”
“I didn’t answer when you asked two minutes ago, what makes you think I’ll tell you now?” he quips, raising a challenging brow. His grip tightens on my hand, leading me to a tree. He drops it when we’re standing underneath the branches, the sun barely peeking through the leaves.
After he spreads the blanket, Vander pulls me to the ground between his legs. “Umm, Vander… I don’t hate to break it to you, but I have less than zero interest in watching semen demons run around.”
He barks out a laugh, not expecting my comment. “We’re not here for the playground. I was only fucking with you.” He turns us on the blanket to face the tree.
This is much better. Trees I can deal with. His arms tighten around me, and he presses his cheek to mine, holding me close. His legs close in around mine, like he can’t get near enough. “I don’t want to sound like I’m bragging, but I was your favorite person when you were little. You wouldn’t listen to anyone, and they constantly had to call me because I was the exception.”
He presses a kiss to my temple before nuzzling my neck for a moment. His voice is muffled when he continues. “You were five when it happened. That day your guard called me here to get you out of the tree. I’m sure he was pissed as fuck having to do it since it made me a witness to his betrayal, but you wouldn’t climb down for him no matter what.
“It was the worst day of my life, seeing you being kidnapped, and the way you screamed for me from the back window…” His voice breaks and he squeezes me so tight I can’t breathe. He continues to tell me every detail of my kidnapping. How he spent weeks torturing men for information. The entire story spills from his lips until his voice is hoarse from talking so much.
Every word seems to erase the remaining anger I’ve held onto. One thing becomes clear to me—he’s always loved me. He told me his life has been dedicated to me from the start, but hearing all the examples of how much is drastically different from simply saying it as a fact.
He doesn’t only tell me about what happened, what led up to me being adopted and the better life they all thought I’d live. The safer life. He also tells me other stories about the life I can’t recall. I wish I could remember the details from back then, but my time before being found has been a black hole.
I don’t remember calling him Vanner, or that my favorite color was purple, or the only thing I’d eat for two weeks straight was spaghetti bolognese.
When his words trail off, his mind getting sucked into his despair of losing me, I turn around in his hold. For a moment he fights me, thinking I’ll pull away from him. But he couldn’t be farther from the truth. I straddle him and hold both sides of his face.
His dark eyes stare into mine, waiting on bated breath for what I’ll say. My inner asshole enjoys making him wait for a second, wanting to draw out his anticipation. I run my nose along his and let my breath tease against his lips, holding them so close, but not letting him taste them yet.
“You’ll never lose me again, Vanner. I’m yours, and you’re mine, for the rest of eternity. And if anyone tries to separate us, we’ll paint the world red with their bodies.” He sucks in a sharp breath, and I graze my lips against his, pressing soft kisses. Showing him how much I mean every word.
Cole
Water beads down my chest, dripping slowly over my tattoos. I dry my hair before wrapping the towel around my waist and walk into the bedroom. Enzo’s mansion has ensuite bathrooms for every room, something I also look for when buying my properties.
I freeze when I find my dark beauty sprawled out on my bed. “What are you doing here, Luv?”
She sits with a smile on her face. “You were taking forever, I was about to join you if you took any longer.”
“Mmm, seems I should have stayed in there,” I tease, but secretly, I’m glad she didn’t. “Where have you been? You weren’t home when I went in.”
“This isn’t our home Cole,” she laughs out, not answering my question.
“Your home is wherever we are,” I growl, gripping her ankle and tugging her to the end of the bed. I have to taste her, it’s been too damn long, even if I did thoroughly kiss her last night. She laughs as the force of me pulling her has her laying flat on the bed, but when I stop, she springs up, hands on my sides. Her tongue flicks out and she licks some drops while standing up.
It feels so damn good, her sinful tongue gliding over my skin. My cock twitches to life, aching for her mouth to repeat her actions on him. I palm the back of her head, wanting to distract myself from the need to sink into her. She kisses me like she’s desperate to have me. I love how much she wants me.
“I guess this is home then,” she responds when we pull apart. “Vander took me to the park where I was kidnapped. Told me all about the past I can’t remember. I’m fucking twenty-five, Cole. I feel like I’ve lost two years of my life. I feel like I should be studying the mirror looking for wrinkles.”
Her lip pouts out. My vain girl; always concerned with her appearance. “Still gorgeous as ever, Luv.”
“I need you to fuck the youth back into me,” she pleads with a smirk.
Her hands reach for my towel, but I smack them away. “Nope! You don’t get my cock until I give it to you. Vander has it right, you’re such a damn greedy girl. So needy all the time.” I catch her hands as they grab for the towel again, and hold them in one hand while I reach my other arm between her legs and toss her onto the bed.
My hands instantly go for her pants and remove them. They turn inside out when I peel them from her legs and toss them somewhere behind me. I don’t waste time with her panties. Instead, I hook a finger and drag them to the side, exposing her already dripping cunt.
I can’t wait to bury my face in her sweet pussy. My tongue is about to swipe into her when my computer emits a screeching alarm. I turn to face the sound and immediately get off the bed. “Cole!” Raven shouts from behind me, aggravated I’m allowing myself to get distracted.
That woman is my whole world, but she doesn’t know what this alarm means. I haven’t ever heard it go off. With a press of the space bar the alarm cuts out—which honestly, it’s so loud I’m surprised Raven would want me to ignore it—and the screen lights up. I lean over the desk, quickly typing in my password and my search pops open. It’s been running in the background for years. I had actually forgotten to turn it off, but now, as my heart is pounding in my chest, I’m glad I didn’t.
