I find her on the couch, still dressed in her pretty dress and staring at the floor. She looks broken, and I hate that it’s all my fault.
“I’m sorry,” I tell her, hiding any emotion from my tone, despite the fact that I mean it. I really fucking mean it.
“I shouldn’t have tried riling you.” She shrugs her shoulders.
“I was with another woman last night,” I confess, watching her face grow even sadder. “But not in the way you're thinking.”
“Then how?” She sits herself up straighter and wipes away her tears.
“Ella’s friend got dropped off at the club last night in a bad way. She was jacked up on some shit and Nyx didn’t wanna ruin the day for Ella. So I watched her,” I explain.
“You sat with her all night?” Gracie looks confused.
“All night,” I confirm. “Ella doesn’t know about it yet. Prez is gonna try getting the girl better while they’re away on their honeymoon. Apparently, the girl’s family have bailed on her so she had no one.”
“Why didn’t you tell me? I could have helped. She must have been so scared.” Gracie stands up and starts moving toward the bedroom.
“Did you want him?” I can’t help asking as I grab her arm and stop her.
“Want who, Brax?” I don’t know if it’s confusion, sadness or exhaustion that she looks back at me with.
“The guy at the party.”
“I want you, Brax, and I’ve always been used to getting my way,” she shrugs sadly, slipping her arm out of my grasp and disappearing into my room.
“Gracie,” I call after her and she pops her head back around the door.
“For as long as you're here, you got me,” I promise. I don’t know why it’s me she wants but I like the idea of giving her what makes her happy.
Her lips pick up into an irresistible smile and she comes toward me.
“Then we better take a shower and go check that your new friend is okay.”
1 WEEK LATER
“Holy shit,” Brax breathes deep, his strong hands gripping at my hips, steering my movements as I grind on his cock. “You're gonna make me come, Gracie.” He looks up at me, his dark eyes holding mine and demanding another orgasm from me. I grip the wood headboard above his head and let the pleasure consume me. The impact of my thrusts getting faster and more desperate when his hold on me tightens, and I feel his fingers bruising into my hips.
“Fuck,” he hisses, his body stiffening and his mouth gasping open. I feel his heat spill inside me, his hands gripping and grasping at my sweaty skin as he loses control of himself. This is my favorite version of Brax. When his guard is down and he’s free of his demons.
“Come here.” He wraps his hand around the back of my neck and drags me onto his lips, we’re both breathless, our hearts beating so fast that you can almost hear them. His cock is still hard inside me and even after only just coming, I take a thrill in the new angle it finds.
“You look sexy as fuck when you’re coming, Gracie.” His lips skim over mine.
“You gonna miss me when I’m gone?” I ask playfully. I feel his body turn rigid and when his lips pull away from me, I notice his playful smile has vanished.
“I thought we weren’t gonna talk about that,” he reminds me of the deal we made the morning after Nyx and Ella’s wedding.
“We’re gonna have to talk about it soon, you and Jessie have already started making your way through that list Maddy found. Isn’t that why you were so late home last night?” I sit up straight so he can’t distract me with that mouth of his.
I’ve spent a lot of time with Maddy over the past week, she’s explained to me how things work out for her and Ella. If you don’t ask you don’t get told. It’s kind of the code around here. I haven’t asked because in all honesty, I don’t know if I wanna know.
Yeah, I want these wretched people to suffer, but I don’t know if I want to think about the man I share a bed with being the one who deals them their justice.
“There ain’t nothing to talk about.” Brax’s hand moves down my body, his eyes following the trail he makes over my skin as his rough palm cups one of my tits and tightens around it.
“You ever wonder if we could make it work?” I find the courage to ask, making sure I sound curious rather than hopeful.
Brax laughs, his body rattling beneath me and his cock moving inside me.
