Chapter Nine
JENICA
This felt like a dream, having Pierce’s hands on me while I knelt between his legs.
I’d been afraid at first. Embarrassed, even.
But now… now I just felt content.
There was something undeniably freeing about giving him control and trusting him to see me through this. When he’d started talking about training and teaching me, I’d melted.
I want that, I thought. I want to learn everything from you.
It was a fantastical notion, one I’d lost myself within.
I’d barely heard my brother speaking. His words had processed within my mind, then fluttered off into the wind. Because they didn’t matter. Nothing did. Only Pierce.
And his palm.
His fingers.
That lingering touch.
“Jenica,” he whispered.
I hummed, leaning into him.
Adalyn had become a completely different person when he’d arrived. She’d said something about his ring and how he was a member, and she’d lost her usual sarcastic flair behind a mask of submission.
Or perhaps the sarcastic part of her was the mask.
I wasn’t really sure. It’d been a bit shocking at first.
But then Pierce had told me to kneel. He’d taken charge. And it’d been all too easy for me to just let him lead.
It had provided a freedom unlike any I’d ever experienced before. A freedom I reveled in now, trusting him to just let me exist.
“Fuck,” he cursed, drawing my gaze up to his face. His eyes reminded me of a rainforest, all dark green leaves with a hint of sunlight making them glow. I could lose myself in that stare for days. Months, even. He cupped my cheek again and I sighed, his touch exactly what I craved.
His thumb traced my lower lip, sending a shiver down my spine.
I parted my mouth on instinct. More.
I had no idea what he was doing to me or why I’d given myself up to this freedom, but I didn’t want it to stop.
“Jenica.” His gentle tone stirred a deep warmth within me that left me breathless. No one had ever made me feel this way.
“I like this,” I confided in him. “I like you touching me.” It was something I’d dreamt of a million times, but never quite in this manner. Him being soothing yet dominant, caring yet in charge.
“You need to go before your brother comes back.” He removed his hand, leaving me cold in his wake.
I started to lean again, seeking his heat, only to realize he wasn’t there to catch me.
The world twisted, my vision crossing as I began to tip sideways.
His palm caught my shoulder, righting me again. “Jenica. I need you to snap out of it and go.”
