“You’ve got men who deal with this stuff?” I ask.

“We’ll talk about that later when you’re feeling better.”

“But…”

I don’t have time to ask him anything because Mikhail lifts me, cradling me to his chest as we make our way downstairs.

I don’t see much except the furniture thrown haphazardly around the room. Mia and my step-mother cower in the corner as Mikhail’s men surround them.

Mikhail moves quickly out the door and into a waiting car. My eyes start to feel heavy. Laying my head against his chest, I can hear and feel his heartbeat. He’s here. He came for me. I’m so tired.

I feel a kiss against my temple as my eyes start to close. “It’s okay, baby girl, get some rest. We'll be home soon.”

My body drifts off to sleep, dreaming about a life and future that I never thought I could have before.

My eyes flutter open and I look around. I recognize that I’m in Mikhail's room. How did I get to his penthouse? The memories of the last twenty-four hours play in my mind. My step-mother accusing me of being a whore, locking me in my room. Telling me that she was going to put me in an auction. Leah trying to kill me, and then Mikhail. Mikhail coming to save me.

Then I remember the ledger I had found in Mia’s room. I need to tell Mikhail. I go to get up but my head starts to pound. A deep voice next to me says, “Whoa, be careful, Ella. You need to rest.”

“No, I need to tell you something but my head hurts,” I say, grabbing his wrist.

“It’s okay, Ella. We can talk about it later. The doctor said you need as much rest as possible.”

“Please, Mikhail.”

“Baby girl, why don’t you rest a little bit more, then you can tell me. How about that?” he asks as he pulls me into his chest. The warmth of his body envelops me, and my body gets heavy.

“Okay, maybe just for a little bit longer.”

A deep chuckle comes from behind me as sleep takes me under.

The next time I wake, sunlight pours in through the window. I roll over to look for Mikhail but he’s gone. I feel around in his space, but it’s cold. I instantly panic. Did he leave? Is something wrong?

I rush out of the room and relief hits me when I see him sitting on the couch in the living room. I lick my lips as I take in the scene. Casually sitting there, looking at his phone, dressed in black joggers, and a tight white T-shirt that clings to every muscle on his body.

My nipples pebble and my clit starts to throb at just the sight of this man. This man who would do anything for me. Fuck, I want to ride him into the sunset. As if he could read my dirty thoughts he looks up and gives me a grin. “Good morning, baby girl. You look like you’re feeling a little better.”

He puts his phone down on the coffee table then pats his lap. “Come sit on Daddy’s lap.”

I don’t delay. I obey walking toward him, falling down on his lap. I giggle as I catch myself with my arms wrapped around his neck. I give him a kiss, deepening it, trying to show him what I’m feeling. I don’t know how he did it but he stole my heart and I don’t want it back. Without skipping a beat, he continues to kiss me as he pulls my shirt up over my head.

When he pulls back, he leans his forehead against mine as he draws his finger across my collar bone and down to my breasts. “You know you scared me yesterday, Ella. And I don’t like being scared.”

My cheeks burn from his touch on my body as he continues his exploration. Circling his fingers around my nipples, I arch into him and moan. “Hmm…I need you.”

“You need me?”

“Yes.”

“I don’t know. You took a pretty good hit to your head. I want to make sure you’re okay.”

“Mikhail, I’m fine.” I snap at him. “I need you more. I thought I would never see you again. Please give me what I need.”

My words must spur him into action because he pulls his cock out of his joggers and lines it up with my core. With one thrust he’s inside my pussy, stretching me deliciously, and I love it.
