With one last thrust, I arched and felt myself jerking from the sensitivity. My orgasm sent me rocking with his increased speed and I did scream as wave after wave, he drew out my release. The swelling of his cock had me moaning and I met his tongue as he kissed me, then shot his cum deep within my pussy.

“God,” he growled, slamming into me harder as he finished. For seconds, he didn’t move. Sweat dripped onto my breast and his finger traced it over my skin. “Ropes off. Then, we go again. I’m not wasting a moment of the time we have together.

Chapter 36

Zain

Leaving my slave was the one of the hardest things I’d ever done. The tears, the fear in her eyes as she held and looked up at me, were forever going to haunt my memories. I didn’t want to do this. Not really. I wanted my uncles dead, but I didn’t want to leave Lily to do it. Life was never going to be easy. I had to just suck it up and get this over with. The faster I killed off my uncles, the sooner I’d be back to my new life.

God, had she really tried to convince me to marry her last night? As I stared up at Slade, I felt the top of my lip pull back in distaste. Yeah, she sure as hell had, and here we were…not married. Not honeymooning in Vegas. All because of the man before me.

I brought my attention back to my slave and pressed my lips against her again. “Give me a minute?”

She nodded and I looked back at Slade. The way his eyes narrowed told me he was cautious. He was probably plotting his next move to get me further away from his sister.

“Can I have a word with you?”

Slade glanced at Blake, who stood behind me, and turned, heading toward his office. I followed, shutting the door behind me.

“You’re in a very pissy mood, Zain. It may be my imagination, but I don’t think so. If I didn’t know better, I’d say it was aimed toward me.”

My arms crossed over my chest as I stared at him. “No, you have it right. I’m pretty upset and it revolves around you.”

“Why is that?” Slade sat on the edge of his desk, holding the overhanging. The longer I let it linger in my mind, the worse it got.

“Lily wanted me to go to Vegas with her last night. She wanted to get married before I left. I had to tell her no.” The last word had my tone deepening. Slade stiffened and I could tell he was trying to act like my news didn’t affect him, but I knew true fear when I saw it.

“No one in their right mind tells the person they love no when it comes to something that big. I would have married her in a heartbeat, had I not given you my word. If something happens and I missed my chance to ever call her my wife, so help me, I’m coming back to haunt your ass.”

He glanced to the floor, only to bring his attention back up. When he did, he was fully composed. “Rushing into marriage after such a short amount of time isn’t going to benefit either one of you. Trust me when I say you’ll be glad you waited.”

My head shook and I moved my hands to rest on my hips. “You haven’t given me a reason to trust you yet. I thought I might be able to, but your ploy to get me further away from Lilian had that disappearing. You’re up to something and I don’t like it. If you’re trying to push me away, I’m telling you now, it won’t work. Lily is mine and nothing or no one will change that.”

I went to spin around to leave, when I halted and walked closer instead. “Just so you know, I’m buying her a ring when I get back. When I propose isn’t decided yet, but I’ll be ready. I suggest you get ready, too, because I’ll be asking her soon. That doesn’t mean we’ll rush to get married, but she will be my fiancée, if she chooses to be.”

Slade sat quietly as I headed out the door and made my way back to my slave. It was so hard watching her try to hold herself together. Knowing how she tried to act tough, when I knew she was breaking inside, was the worst. “I have to get going. I’m going to miss you.”

Her arms flew around my neck and I hugged her tightly. As my eyes closed, I took in her smell and the feel of her body against mine. Three days tops. That’s all I’d allow myself. I couldn’t be separated from her longer than that.

“Be careful,” she whispered. “I love you.”

“I love you, too.” I pulled back, kissing her one last time before I forced myself to let go and leave. The door shutting behind Blake had me going straight to the elevator and pushing the button. I didn’t want to remember her cries. The feel of the sobs shaking her body this morning almost had me changing my mind.

I turned to Blake as I waited. So clearly, I could see his knowledge of where I was at. He knew I didn’t want to go. From the thin, set lips, to the slightly narrowed eyes, he was reading me like an open book and I hated being that exposed.

At the ding, I walked to the car robotically and held the metal rail as an anchor to keep myself from rushing back in and taking Lily home. My head lowered and I waited for the doors to close.

“We haven’t left yet. You can still stay. I’m more than capable of taking care of this, you know. I do have a partner. All it will take is a phone call. He’ll be ready in no time.”

My head shook while I held on tighter. “No. This has to be me. When Saul dies, it’ll be by my hand and my hand only. He took a life that belonged to me. That I created. Now he owes me his. There can be no other way.”

“So be it.” Blake hit the button to the parking garage and I made myself get into my killer mindset. Lily would be waiting for me. If I was going to get back to her, I needed to focus on the task at hand. It was who I was. What I’d been raised for. Death would be coming for those who deserved it and I couldn’t wait to deliver.

A slight jolt had the door opening and we headed to his SUV. Lights flashed from him unlocking it and I didn’t hesitate to climb inside. Before I realized what was happening, fingers laced into my hair, jerking back, and there was a knife at my throat. I didn’t think. Instincts kicked in and he wasn’t even finished adjusting the blade against my skin before I grabbed his wrist and twisted. I spun, drawing my gun from my waistband and pulling his arm forward, using it to bring myself closer so I could press the barrel against his temple. Voices sounded distorted and nothing was making sense. All I knew was the pretty-boy who stared back at me only inches away. He was stuck next to the headrest, trapped by my grip and he was all I could see. My finger was already tightening on the trigger and I had to calm myself past the defenses I’d naturally thrown up.

“Chill, he was just testing you.” Blake’s voice broke through my wall and I threw a glance at him before moving back to the one who didn’t look the least bit afraid. There was a lack of emotion in his eyes. The void drew me in until I had to blink past it. For someone who was extremely attractive, he was practically gone on the inside. The realization had my finger not quite wanting to move from its ready state.

“He’s good. Better than you let on.” The stranger tried looking at Blake, but settled back on me. “I’m Preston, Blake’s partner.”
