“Nothing. You’re dismissed.”
Jayson lingers, seething, but I tug him back. He follows me into the hall where he storms toward the elevators, so angry he can barely control himself. I speak softly, trying to soothe him, rubbing his arms and shoulder and kissing his neck, and it takes the entire ride back to the condo for him to finally start breathing normally again.
“I hate this,” I say once we’re back in our room. He wraps his arms around me and kisses my neck. “I really, really hate it. You’re actually going to go out there and kill those guys yourself?”
“Zach’s been on the case. They’re staying together in a rented room right downtown. Safety in numbers.”
“It’ll be dangerous then.”
“I’ll hit them fast and hard, and I’ll make sure to bring plenty of muscle with me.”
“I don’t like this. Why is Adler making you do it?”
My husband is quiet as he kisses my neck and chin, slowly taking off my shirt. He tosses it aside. I barely even notice that he’s undressing me—we haven’t had on clothes for days. This is our natural state right now.
“My brother plays games. They’re all tests. Loyalty tests. He wants to make sure I’m loyal to him and the Costa family over you and your family. He wants to make sure you won’t try to stop me from hurting those men, just in case you’re working together. Which is absurd, since they tried to kill you. I’m sure he’s got other motives he’s not saying.”
“It’s crazy.” I purr as he strokes a hand down my flank and grips my ass.
“This is what I do, baby.” His tongue invades my mouth, flicking across mine, before he licks and sucks my breasts. “I kill for the ones I love.”
“Jayson,” I groan as his hand slides between my legs. “How are you thinking about sex? I’m so scared for you.”
“Sex is all I can think about. You make me like this, my love. You drive me fucking wild, and if this is going to be our last night together, I’m going to make the best of it.”
“Don’t say that.”
He shoves me down onto the bed. I glare at him, not happy.
He drops to his knees and yanks me forward, hooking my legs over his shoulders as his tongue darts up and down my folds before lapping over my clit.
“You want me to lie to you?” he asks as warmth spreads into my limbs. “You want me to pretend like this isn’t dangerous?”
“Please,” I moan. “Just don’t go. I can’t lose you.”
“You won’t.”
My fingers lace into his hair. I tug, holding tightly. “You were taking risks before, when you were hunting those men.”
“I was,” he admits, sliding fingers inside my pussy. I’m starting to lose my train of thought as the pleasure mounts.
“Were you… fuck… trying to hurt yourself?”
“Maybe,” he muses and moves up to suck my nipples as he finger fucks me. “I don’t think consciously, but some part of me couldn’t stand being in this world without you. I felt like I was broken.”
“Jayson,” I moan, losing my mind. “I want you inside of me. Right fucking now.” I drag him up onto the bed and straddle him, panting, breathing hard. The thought of him hurting so badly because of me is like an open sore in my guts. I arch my back and slide down his shaft, taking him between my legs, and that feels better, so fucking much better.
I ride him, hands on his chest, breasts pressed together. I like the way his eyes roam my body, desiring me, loving every inch of my skin as I ride him faster, dragging my clit against his pelvis as I keep him deep inside.
“You’re mine,” he says, groaning, the sexiest noise ever.
“And you’re mine,” I say in response, throwing my head back. Orgasm hits me then, wave after wave of it, and I keep riding him, milking his cock between my legs. He growls low and gasps, thrusting up hard, over and over, until he comes inside of me, filling me to the brim. It’s heaven, that look on his face, and if he’s going to go do something stupid and dangerous then I’m going to pamper him tonight.
“If I asked you to send your men and stay behind, would you do it?” I whisper once I’m in his arms again. We’re sweaty and naked. I lift up a knee, half straddling him. I’ve never felt so comfortable with a person before.
“No,” he says, sounding like he regrets it. “I couldn’t do that.”
“Then you’re mine tonight. I’m going to make you feel so good, you won’t think about anything but coming back to me.”
“Baby, that’s all I want already.”
“Maybe.” I sit up and kiss him. “But I think I can help you along.” I kiss down his chest, down to his cock, and take him into my mouth. I can still taste my pussy on his half-hard shaft. I suck him slow and he starts to get hard between my lips.
