I TOTALLY LOVED RYDER’S HOUSE, my house now, too. My new closet in particular. All my clothes and even my ridiculous amount of shoes fit in. I had room to buy more and I would still have room left. The walk-in-closet was the size of my room at my dad’s house. I had a whole closet to myself. Ryder a smaller one.
The people who’d packed my stuff had done a good job and taken care of all my precious things, my shoes especially. I think I was angry with Ryder for moving me in at first, because I thought my stuff would get ruined and I hated people touching my clothes and shoes. My shoes were my babies. I sometimes saved for months to buy Louis Vuitton or Prada. I couldn’t afford them, but because I lived with my dad and didn’t pay anything, my money was all my own I could save and buy them. I had expensive taste.
I’d moved into Ryder’s house and this week had been amazing. I’d had sex every night and some mornings, when he was home. I didn’t ‘do’ mornings and Ryder got up at the crack of dawn and sometimes throughout the night he got work calls and went in. Life was good. Even Arron had been the perfect brother. It helped he loved Ryder’s house. Arron, Oakley, and Shithead, (I called Andrew that because he was a dick, everything that came out of his big mouth was filth) got on like a house on fire. They were now the three musketeers. So everything was good. So good, I was waiting for the other shoe to drop. Not one of my shoes, but the proverbial one.
I had bodyguards. That was strange. Something I didn’t think I’d ever get used to. I really didn’t think I needed them. I could look after myself, but if Ryder wanted to waste money and put his mind at ease I’d let him. The guards kept out of my way, but I knew they were there. One stayed in the salon all day, but no one heard a peep from him. The girls at the salon loved the guards. They called them their constant eye candy.
Three days ago, Ryder came to my work for the first time and since then my girls hadn’t shut up about him. Smiling, I remembered that day…
My mind was in a fog and had been since I left Ryder’s, no, our house, this morning.
“Oh wow.” Mrs. Deblanchet gasped out loud. Looking up from her nails I followed her line of sight. Dark green orbs set in a masculine face I was coming to know very well, stared back at me.
“Vixen, when you have a moment.”
No one mistook who he was talking to. Ryder’s whole focus was on me and you couldn’t miss the way his gaze devoured and staked his claim at the same time.
Everyone had seemed frozen for a moment or two not saying a word until I shook my own head out of his spell and glanced back down at the job I’d been doing before I stared back at him. “I’ll be finished here in about fifteen or so. Why, what do you want?”
“If he wanted anything from me I’d happily give it,” mumbled Emily, my manager.
“Me too,” Greta added. She was another beauty lady like me, but she was in her late thirties.
I didn’t need to look around the room to see the other girls I worked with agreeing too. Rolling my eyes, I put my index finger to my lips. “Zip it. His head barely fits through the door as it is, don’t make it bigger.” The women all giggled and the bodyguard, Joel, who sat in the salon snickered.
The grin that split over his face had a sigh slipping past not just my own lips but those women around me. He moved closer to me and crossed his massive muscled arms over his broad chest. I knew he did this to torture me and prove he was indeed drool worthy and that the women sighing over him was well deserved, because his body was a work of art. At the show of another reason why Ryder was so yummy, I didn’t miss the women around me practically panting at the sight of the muscles on display. Then he spoke again in his deep gravelly voice and I knew that at work I would never hear the end of how good I was to bag a hottie like Ryder.
“I want you. I’m taking you for early dinner.”
It was kind of embarrassing that I was at work and at his simple words made my whole body come alive and I became wet.
“Go. I can finish Mrs. Deblanchet’s nails. You’re okay with that Mrs. Deblanchet?” The woman nodded so fast she looked like a damn bobbly head.
“Thank you, Ma’am. I have to stay back at work late tonight and won’t get to see Divinity before she goes to sleep.” The bright smile Ryder sent to Mrs. Deblanchet had the old woman blushing like a virgin, and the adoration in her gaze wasn’t missed either.
I knew right then that Ryder’s power didn’t just work on me. It must be all the female population. Mrs. Deblanchet was a tough old broad and difficult. She’d been fobbed off on me and I knew it was because I was new and at first would get all the shitty clients.
Ryder had taken me to dinner, but since then I hadn’t been left alone by my work mates. They wanted every detail about him and how I scored a Silverman. I didn’t understand why they were so fascinated. They all acted like I’d done an impossible feat. Personally, I didn’t care that he was a Silverman, but apparently, they were a big deal. The family was not only one of the richest in Australia but was one of the most influential families in the world, with friends in very high places. I didn’t know much as I hadn’t looked Ryder or his family up, but my work friends were at me to do it. I told all my friends that I didn’t care who his family was, and that all I cared about was Ryder himself. It was true. One thing I learned from being an Army brat is that it’s not who your family is, but who you are.
My father was supposed to be home in a day or two, but in a Skype chat yesterday said he was asked to stay an extra week. Arron was happy, he was coming up to his trial HSC, and was already stressed and wasn’t ready for Dad to be on his case. I understood and felt bad I wasn’t disappointed he was staying an extra week too. I was looking forward to having more time with Ryder. Well, when he wasn’t working.
I was worried about my dad though. When I spoke to him on Skype he didn’t seem himself and was agitated and couldn’t give me a time or the right date. It wasn’t until he’d pussy footed around the subject for a good twenty minutes that he told me he was staying an extra week and he didn’t have an exact day he would be home. It wasn’t like him, he was always straight to the point. I knew telling my father about Ryder and everything that had happened over Skype wasn’t right, but with how he sounded lately I was becoming worried about telling him even when he got home. Arron wouldn’t talk to Dad and I was past the stage of forcing him. I left the issue between Arron and Dad be.
Ryder would be home any minute. Tonight, we were ordering take-out, watching Netflix, and relaxing. The only thing I wanted to discuss tonight was about me living with my father for a couple of days when he came home, until he settled in and I told him about my relationship with Ryder and me now living with Ryder. I mentioned to Ryder a couple of times that I wanted to do this, but it had never been resolved. Ryder was determined that I wouldn’t stay anywhere but with him. I knew though, that at least for a couple of days I needed to be with Dad and Arron, even just so I could smooth things out between the two of them. This was something I had to put my foot down on. I gave in to everything else, or more precisely, Ryder used sex to get me to agree to anything he wanted. He was beyond evil. Tonight, we would be discussing this.
I was fucking exhausted. I’d been working doubles and talking to every source I had to try and find out who this new player was. The drugs were out there, but none of the dealers knew who the head of their organization was, they never dealt with the leader, and had only X as a name. X. No first or last name, all they kept saying was X was the leader. They all knew he didn’t like Silvermans either, but me especially I’d learned. That was the most we did know. X was making enemies including The Devil’s Queens, but even they were too scared to retaliate against X, or they were biding their time until we caught and shut down X’s operation. It was also becoming apparent that we had some major leaks in the force as evidence was going missing, and witnesses were ending up dead, even while being protected.
Richard’s clubs were now being targeted so badly that he had raids done almost nightly. Richard’s business should be in trouble, but, the hype had done the opposite and brought people in droves to the clubs. Richard wasn’t happy, because with all the drama, he was having to come in and deal with everything and not leave it all to his management. His brothers, mine, and our cousins had been trying to help him so he could spend time with his baby son, but it had been only a year since he started giving the control of his clubs to management. Before that Richard had done it pretty much all himself with only a little help here and there from family.
As I let myself in the house I groaned as my muscles protested each movement. This wasn’t how I expected spending the first couple of weeks having my soulmate with me. I felt like I barely saw Divinity. Lately I’d been living off less than two hours sleep so I could spend time with her. She worked mostly afternoon shift, from noon until around seven weekdays and on Saturday ten until four and then she had Sunday and Monday off.
I went straight to the family room to see Divinity, laying across the lounge, with a fluffy brown blanket over her, and stacks of puffy gold and silver pillows thrown around and positioned behind her. The remotes were all stacked and close by. She was all set up on the lounge ready for our relaxing Netflix night.
Divinity beamed up at me and the tension in my body instantly left me. I came to her and leaned down and kissed her. She dragged me down so I climbed over the lounge until I hovered over her and deepened the kiss. The stress of my day floated away as she clutched me to her and our mouths made love. When her hands slid under my shirt I reluctantly eased away. If she went any further I’d never get my shower or food.
“Let me shower and get changed into more comfortable clothes. I didn’t shower at work. I came straight home.” I adjusted the hard on that our little welcome home had given me.
“Okay.” The little vixen knew what she’d done to me. Her eyes were alight with want and pure lust. She smirked as she watched me adjust myself. “How about while you’re in the shower I’ll order us a pizza. Meat-lover for you good?” She raised her brow.
“Perfect.” I backed away when Divinity licked her lips. I needed to get out of there before our relaxing night turned into a fun filled night of hot love making and exploring each other’s bodies. I turned and bolted to the stairs and up them to the bathroom.
Stripping out of my clothes, I got the shower ready and stood under it letting the hot water sooth my tense muscles. I was looking forward to tonight, relaxing and cuddling while Divinity and I watched T.V. I didn’t even care that I sounded like a pussy when I thought that.
I had a long fifteen-minute shower before I got out, dried, and put on sweatpants. I made my way downstairs. Divinity was walking into the kitchen with two pizzas when I arrived.
“Right on time. These just came.” Divinity placed them down on the kitchen bench and got out two plates. She opened both and I saw she’d gotten herself a chicken and cheese pizza. She grabbed three slices. “I put two bottles of water on the coffee table for us.”
I put half of the meat lover on my plate and we made our way to the family room. I sat on the long lounge and she snuggled up against my side. Reaching the remote I glanced down at her. “What do you want to watch?”
“How about something like Back to the Future? Or Doctor Who. Everyone loves those and you can watch them again and again.’
“Doctor Who? I never watched that. I just didn’t get into it.”
“What!” She screeched and jumped back from me her pizza almost slipping off her plate. “How can you have not watched it? Doctor Who is one of the best shows on T.V. Even the old ones all the way to the black and white ones about fifty years ago.”
Her mouth was open and her eyes were wide as she gazed at me like I’d done some major crime. I barely resisted the urge to laugh at her adorable look. “I know my cousin Zeck is into all those kinds of shows.” I shrugged. “I just never got into them. I’m not one for T.V. I’ve always been more of an outdoors person.”
She crossed her arms pushing her breasts up to me like an offering. “Doctor Who is not ‘one of those shows.’ It’s a classic and until now, I thought it was a part of everyone’s childhood. I mean who hasn’t watched at least an episode or two?
The outrage in her voice had a chuckle escaping me. I sat the pizza on the coffee table along with hers and brought her to me. Unable to resist I captured her lips to my own and kissed her. She was just too cute. Her hands slid around my neck and she eased over to straddle me.
My fingers found the edge of her shirt and slipped under it trailing up her torso and ticking her ribs. She squirmed at the feather light touch on her skin and pushed away with a giggle. “I was having a serious discussion with you. Don’t distract me.”
I couldn’t help my smirk as I gazed at her. “Serious discussion? I’m not sure why you would think my lack of watching a T.V. is serious.” Her huff and eye roll had my dick throbbing. She looked so cute and I was enjoying our banter.
“It totally is. It tells me your childhood was lacking.” She winked. “I’m going to have to educate you. My dad has the old original Doctor Who series, but today I think we’ll start with what’s on Netflix. The new series.” She got off my lap, and for a moment I considered dragging her back and telling her not to bother, that we could watch it another day and we could continue my exploration of her body, but at the look of excitement on her face, I let her go. Divinity set up Doctor Who, grabbed her pizza and snuggled up against me with a huge grin on her face. “I’m sure you’re going to love this.”
I didn’t bother replying. I shoved pizza in my mouth, wrapped an arm around my woman, and relaxed back into the sofa.
I didn’t want to admit it, but after two episodes I was hooked. By the end of the third, no matter how into it I was, I fought to keep my eyes open.
That was when Divinity struck. “My dad got caught up for another week. I, um, I still haven’t— Well you see, I wanted to tell you, er…” Then in one rush without a breath she blurted, “That when Dad comes home I’ll be staying with him and Arron.”
Opening my eyes, I picked Divinity up and settled her so she straddled me and I could look into her eyes. “No. You live here now. With me. You are mine.”
She shook her head. “No. You moved me in here. I told you I need to see my dad and help him settle in when he comes home. We’ve gone over this, and I don’t want to talk about it again.”
I didn’t want to be without her. Arron was old enough he could settle in with his father without Divinity. I didn’t want to have to sleep by myself or come home to an empty house. The last couple of weeks with Divinity had been great. I loved coming home now. I loved knowing that even if I came in at the crack of dawn I could ease into bed and she snuggled straight up to me in her sleep. I loved telling her what I could about my day. She relaxed me. I wasn’t living a night without her again. “No. Your Dad’s a big boy and Arron is old enough that he can handle him.”
Her sigh was loud and when she pouted and her eyes dropped and it looked like she was going to cry, I knew I was a goner. “Please just for a night. Two, max. Dad doesn’t sound good. Please. It will give me time to tell him about us and everything that’s going on. Please.” The tremble of the lip and her pleading gaze got me. My woman had me wrapped around her little finger.
“Fuck,” I growled and narrowed my gaze. “No more than two nights. Promise.” Her eyes wouldn’t meet mine and I caught her chin and turned her so she locked eyes with me. “You’re mine Divinity. I’ve been patient as much as I can with you. I’ve tried not to be like my family with their other halves, because I want you to want me. I want you to trust me and get to know me at your pace. I’m hoping this will help you fall for me sooner.” I winked and she sighed, leaned down, and snuggled against my chest.
“I promise no more than two nights.”
I rubbed her back and she moaned into me. She loved her back being scratched, rubbed, and massaged. “I’ll miss you if you stay longer. Who’ll warm the bed for me?”
“Hey!” She punched my chest and I chuckled at her weak attempt to hurt me. From experience, I knew she could hit harder than that.
“I mean it. I’ll miss you. I’d rather you didn’t stay, but two nights I’ll try and handle. I’ll worry like crazy with you away from me because if you’re at the base, how will your guards be with you?” With everything going on at work I prayed that nothing got back and affected Divinity. The mysterious X and this drug case were getting worse. More and more people were overdosing and they were arresting dealers of all types.
She must have seen the worry in my gaze because as she looked up at me she reached up and stroked my cheek. “I promise before I leave the base I’ll call the bodyguard. No matter how unnecessary I think they are, I can see they make you feel better.” She kissed both my cheeks before resting her lips on mine. “I like that you care enough about me to think I need them. Thank you.”
She kissed me again before resting her head on my shoulder. I held her to me and enjoyed just being together.
Since moving in with Ryder, Arron had become more independent. He was getting driving lessons so he could get his P’s and drive by himself. Oakley or Andrew, or as I have now come to call him, Shithead, came and picked him up and one of them dropped him off some time in the afternoon. They even took him to his lessons. Mickey had even told me—in one of our lessons— how impressed he was with Arron and his change of attitude. I hated to admit it but Oakley and Shithead, were good influence on Arron and it didn’t hurt they helped free up a lot of time for me to spend with Ryder or just relax.
My dad was coming home early Friday morning, I worried how this would affect Arron and his progress, but I hoped with me staying a couple of nights and telling Dad about Ryder it might take pressure off Arron. I intended to spend as much time as I could with Ryder. He had a rare day off, so I swapped a shift with one of my workmates and now on Monday I was working, but I had all day to spend with my man today. While he was in the bathroom this morning I turned off his phone and hid it. Today was my day. I didn’t care if anyone died or Ryder was needed to save the world. Today he was all mine.
I was driving his luxury BMW SUV, and I was in love. I didn’t think he was getting his car back. “I’m just letting you know now that by Monday night when I’m back from Dad and being at the base, this baby is going to be mine. Arron can have my old car. I’m claiming this.” I caressed the steering wheel. The car practically drove itself and with its plush leather seats and every technological advancement, I was in heaven. Sure, I had no idea what a good eighty percent of the stuff did, but it all looked so cool.
“If you want it, it’s yours.” I glanced over at Ryder in time to see him shrug, like giving me a car that was more than my wage for a couple of years was not a big deal.
I shook my head. “You do realize how crazy that is? You just giving me an expensive car. Normal people just don’t do that.” Groaning, I sighed loudly. As much as I wanted to have the car, I knew I couldn’t. Sure, I’d drive it every chance I got, but I couldn’t just take something like this no matter how much I might like it. I wasn’t with Ryder for his money. Sure, it was nice, but I wouldn’t care if he didn’t have any. I’d learned to save and work hard for what I had.
“I’d give you anything Divinity. I want you happy. When you’re happy. I’m happy. If this car makes you happy it’s yours. It’s not like I don’t have the money to buy a new one if I wanted to. I have lots of cars though.”
“I don’t want it. I love the car, but I don’t need it to make me happy.” I reached over and grabbed his hand and linked our fingers. “I don’t care about your money. I love pretty shiny things and name brand stuff, but I worked hard for everything I own. I know that money doesn’t grow on trees. I’ve lived on a budget and can honestly say I was happy. I am happy now, but I just want you to know.” I squeezed his hand. “That I’m not with you for your money. I could care less for it. I’m with you because you stormed into my life and wouldn’t take no for an answer. I’m with you because, every time you’re close my stomach flutters and a calm soothing feeling washes over me. I’m with you because you, not the guards you have on me, make me feel safe. I’m with you because every time we touch I get tingling coursing through me and I throb for more. I’m with you because you listen to me, and lastly I’m with you because you’re you, Ryder, who is becoming someone very important to me.”
His moan had me giggling. “Mmm, if you weren’t driving right now I’d so have you pinned and showing how much I want you after that little speech. You’re beyond amazing and I know you don’t want my money.” He brought our entwined hands up and kissed my knuckles.
“Thank you.” I concentrated on the road going over the directions of where I needed to turn in my mind. I didn’t want GPS on as where we were going was a surprise for Ryder.
“So where are you taking us?”
He’d probably been to where I was taking him at least a hundred times, with it being so close, but I hadn’t ever been and a friend told me there was a lot of carting the devices around and lifting them up and down stairs. So I was taking my muscle man so he would carry things for me. “Wet’n‘Wild. I know you’ve probably been there a lot, but I haven’t e—”
“Not a lot. Maybe two times.” I caught his shrug in my peripheral vision. “I haven’t been in years, maybe a good ten or so. We went overseas for our holidays and we always had a pool at home, so didn’t see much value in coming and waiting in lines.”
“Oh. Lines. I didn’t think. Um…” It never occurred to me that lines would be an issue. Aussie guys, well Aussies in general, weren’t big on waiting and lines. I wasn’t a fan either. “I was hoping that us coming during the week and when it wasn’t school holidays or boiling hot, might help with the lines. What do you think? Should we chance it or do something else?”
“No. I think that was great thinking and Wet’n‘Wild sounds fun.”
I bounced in my seat. “Yay! I have it all planned out. I printed a map and a battle plan.”
“We need a battle plan?”
“Of course. There is a certain way to do theme parks, and if not done right the adrenaline doesn’t reach its highest.” I nodded eager to let him in on my plan of attack. “First, we do the small rides, like, Super 8 Aqua Racer, and River Rapids, then we move on to middle ones, Mach 5 and Blackhole. Then we relax before lunch by Calypso Beach, eat and then move on to the harder, more edger rides like, Kamikaze and Tornado, but we save for close to or last, AquaLoop.”
I liked his deep laugh. It always sent a shiver of warmth through me. “You have our day all planned out?”
“Totally. I just hope we have enough time to do everything.”
We’d been at Wet’n‘Wild since nine forty-five, in time for it to open at ten. Three hours later I was starving. Ryder had gone to get us food and I had found us a table with an umbrella.
“Hi baby.” The deep gravelly voice wasn’t the one I was expecting, and Ryder never called me baby. I shivered in disgust. I hated when people used that as an endearment. I mean, I wasn’t a child or baby, why would I, or any woman want to be referred as one? My father, when he was in a good mood, called me his baby girl. That was alright because I was his child but for a man to use it to refer to me made me cringe and put me off them as soon as they spoke.
I turned towards the voice and was surprised to see not one, but two big guys covered in tattoos with a wicked glint in their eyes. I’d seen that look before. I must look like an easy target. Sitting on my own, looking relaxed and with not a care in the world. I just bet, these guys thought I was with a girlfriend or the guy I was with was some preppy cute young collage kids. Ha. Boy were they in for a shock that not only could I kick their arses, but I was sure Ryder could take them on without breaking a sweat.
“I’m not a baby, and you’re in my boyfriend’s seat.”
Both guys chuckled like I’d said something funny, I had a feeling they had been in the sun for too long and might have a bit of heat stroke. “I’m sure a pretty little thing like you could handle real men like us. What do think about leaving your little boyfriend and coming and trying us? I promise you’ll have fun.” I was sure now that the heat had gotten to them, because they were talking like cocky idiots.
“Are you two for real? Is this some kind of joke?” I saw out the corner of my vision, Chad and Leo, two of Ryder’s bodyguards and guys who watched me move in. I was surprised to see them. I hadn’t realized they were with us today. I laughed the closer they got and I noticed how white Chad’s legs were to the rest of him. They were both wearing board shorts, I guess to blend in.
“Want to tell me why you’re seating in my seat and leaning so close to my woman?” Startled, I almost jumped out of my seat at Ryder’s grumbling, growly voice. The sound sent a shiver of need straight through me to tingle at my core. Damn. The man was potent.
“Silverman. We were just introducing ourselves.” The man with eyes so brown they almost looked black spoke.
I turned back to Ryder who didn’t seem bothered at all. He picked me up, sat down in my chair and placed me across his lap. It happened so quick I didn’t even react. I just settled against him. “Razer and Darkness, what a nice surprise. Are you here for fun or business?”
“I was here for fun. Imagine my surprise when I spotted you. I called the Prez and Darkness here decided to come and join the fun.” Razer, I knew now, was the guy who had first spoken to me. Darkness was the one with the eyes that matched his name. “The Prez wanted us to tell you something.”
I wished for a moment I could see Ryder’s face, but I didn’t want to turn my back on these men. Now I’d heard them talking I was sure that that wouldn’t be a good idea. “Now isn’t the time. I’m off duty and with my woman.”
Darkness smirked down at me and I was sure I felt ice flow through me. “It won’t take long and you can have your time with your pretty little lady. You have two weeks to find out who the new guy is who’s honing in where he shouldn’t, before we start war to get rid of him.”
I felt Ryder tense beneath me, but only enough so I would know. I was sure if I wasn’t on him and didn’t know him the way I did, I wouldn’t have caught it. “Noted,” he snarled. “Now, let me finish my day with my girl.”
The men didn’t say anything as they left, but they did knock into Chad and Leo.
“Fuck.” Ryder turned me and tilted my head up so we were eye to eye He stroked my cheek and brushed his lips over mine. “I’m sorry.”
“You have nothing to be sorry about. They approached us. I have a feeling that has to do with work, but it felt like more.” He was a detective, but this felt more personal.
His sigh and the fall of his eyes and the dip down of lips confirmed what I thought. “They’re a part of The Devil’s Queens, and let’s just say they are not fans of the Silverman family.” His lips feathered over mine. “There are reasons I have protection on you. The motorbike group they belong to is one of them.”
Resting my forehead on his I closed my eyes and just breathed him in, his woody pine smell invaded for a moment before the scent of fresh fries and fish and nuggets floated to me. “Mmm, I’m hungry. Let’s eat. I understand more now why I needs the guards.” Leaning back, I kissed him quickly before getting off and to the other seat. If I stayed on him we wouldn’t eat and I’d make-out with him, uncaring where we were or who was watching.
I sat and grabbed my chips and nuggets. I didn’t bother looking for Leo and Chad. I knew they would have left, but be close by if needed. “Will you be able to stay or do you need to work?” I shoved a chicken nugget in my mouth and waited and hoped he didn’t need to leave after what the two biker guys just told him.
“Nah, today is all about you. I can deal with what they said tomorrow.” He waved his hand like he was waving away the problem.
I wanted him to be sure. He’d been working a lot and had told me his work was crazy right now. I didn’t want him to get in trouble for not reporting something important. “Are you sure. I’ve had an awesome time so far.” I winked at him. “I mean, I’m sure I could get Chad or Leo to carry the tubes, rafts, and stuff, up all the stairs for me for the rides. I mean that’s why I brought you anyway, so I had a strong guy to do all the hard work.” I batted my eyelashes dramatically.
With his mouth full of food, he tried not to smile, but I didn’t miss it. He swallowed and flexed his arms. I giggled. “Who would you dig your claws into when you get scared? I wouldn’t want you to break anything. So I’ll stay.” I rolled my eyes at his putout tone. I liked that Ryder got my sense of humor. I was really starting to fall for him.
I wasn’t happy. Not only was Divinity going to stay at her father’s house to help him settle in tomorrow for a couple of days, instead of spending my last hours with her, I sat in my home office reviewing the overdose drug cases. I was getting nowhere, which just heightened my frustration. No one knew who the boss was. Everyone knew him as X, and said he always wore some type of mask. The three people the precinct had sent undercover had turned up dead. The female had stayed in the longest, but had the most gruesome death. Messages carved into their skin were addressed to me, taunting my inability to figure out who the head honcho was and stop the drugs from getting to the public. They had gotten me taken off the case as my captain felt it had become too personal to me.
If it wasn’t for Divinity I would spend all my time working on solving this, but as she told me over and over the last week, if I didn’t take a break and step back I’d burn out and miss something major. We’d gone to movies and she even took me shopping twice, once for clothes and another for food. My fridge was now full. I couldn’t remember if it had ever been.
Scrubbing my face with my hand, I ground my fingers into my temple trying to stop a beginning migraine. I just fucking knew I was missing something that should be blindingly obvious, but I’d been over all the information I had what felt like a million times. Staring down at all the people I picked up for dealing X’s drugs, I looked for the pattern. They were all different. Two were your typical bad guy with serval arrests and even jail time, another one was a guy who had a sealed juvie record but hadn’t been, or I should say hadn’t gotten caught, breaking the law for six years. Two more were university students, with perfect records and good grades. One was a mother with a husband and family, two had been family guys like the woman. Two were elderly, one a man and another, the last person I would have ever thought to sell such a deadly drug, a grandma, with seven grandchildren. The money they’d been paid had been really good, but not what I thought to convince some of the people we’d caught.
“You need a break and I have just the activity.” Startled, I darted my gaze from the paper on my table to Divinity who stood in the doorway. My beginning migraine disappeared as I drank in my woman, her hair in down in waves, her make-up done sultry, with smoky eyes and bright red lips. She was wearing a bright red baby-doll lingerie. Dark lace covered her breasts and sheer lace flared out to flash her belly button and to show the matching dark lace panties. Black stockings came up high and were topped with lace too. To finish off the outfit my little vixen lived up to her name and wore knee high back heels. Fuck-me boots.
At the sight of her, my dick hardened and as she strutted towards me I groaned and adjusted myself and told myself not to come like a teenage boy. Fuck. She looked like a wet dream come to life. I was one lucky man.
Easing my chair back I watched transfixed as she made her way to me, pushed all the papers to the side, and leaned against my desk. Needing to touch her I gathered her to me. “I would let you do anything to me looking like this. Damn vixen, you’re perfect.”
Her giggle had my heart soaring. It was one of my favorite sounds. “I take it you like what I have in mind for your break.”
I nodded. She squirmed out of my hold, lifted herself up, and seated herself on the edge of my desk. She spread her legs, leaned down and flashed me a good amount of cleavage. “What do you say we christen your desk?” She winked. “We haven’t done anything in here yet. I try and let you work.” She pouted. “I’m going to miss you though and I think while I’m at my dad’s trying to prevent fights between him and Arron, I should give you something to think of while you’re in here working.”
Divinity wrapped her legs around me brought me in closer. I happily settled between her thighs. “Fuck yeah, I love the sound of that.”
Running my hand up her legs I enjoyed the different, rougher texture of her stocking covered skin. She lowered her legs and eased back, placing the pointed boot on my chest. “I want you to get up and strip.”
I stood and shoved my shirt up but she titters. “No. No. I said strip. Give me a show. Slowly.”
My heartbeat picked up at her words and I slowed my pace. I inched my shirt up making sure I showed each flex of my muscles. When the shirt was over my head my skin heated at the flames of passion that flared in her eyes as she stared at me. She wiggled on the desk and I grinned at the fact I was affecting her too. I undid the button and she bit down on her bottom lip. As I slid the zipper down I could hear her panting. When the pants fell to my ankles and she saw I went commando and my hard cock sprang up large and proud, she moaned. Her index finger came up and she beckoned me to her, reached up and tugged me down until our lips met and she devoured me.
I ground myself against her as the kiss drove our passion higher. I felt her nipples harden and I trailed my fingers up and under the baby-doll top. Divinity shivered and sank against me. Her hand came around and rubbed up and down my back.
Wanting to taste her, I nibbled my way down her body, nipping at her neck and pausing to suck each nipple in before letting go and making my way further down. “I’m going to taste you and make you come so hard that it seeps into the wood and when I’m in here I will smell you.” Moving her so her butt was just on the edge of the table, I settled her legs on my shoulders.
Settled between her thighs, I breathed her in and could already smell her need. I moved the lace thing to the side, not wanting to get rid of the sexy outfit. I nuzzled her before smiling against her as I felt her wetness. She was already so turned on she was practically dripping. I licked her clit once, twice, and a third time before I delved in and tasted some of the cream I desired. She flattened her hands on the table attempting to grip onto something. Her groan was loud and drove me on. I pushed back and eased up a little. I wanted her pussy juice on my desk. I wanted to not just remember this, but I wanted to be able smell this when I remembered how amazing this was. I spread her nether lips and sank deeper into her, devouring her, which caused her thighs to tighten against my head, making me chuckle against her. She mewled before coming apart. I eased back wanting to watch her pussy juices leak. Sliding two fingers into her core I pumped them and closed my eyes as I felt her pussy clamp around them.
“One more time, vixen, before I ram my cock inside you so far that you feel me for days.”
“Oh yes,” she howled.
Leaning forward again, I used my fingers and my mouth this time as I ate her out. I sucked on her clit as I drove my fingers in and out, growling as I felt her get wetter and wetter.
“Fuck! I love what you do to me,” she said, her voice a breathless whisper as I sucked and plunged my fingers deep. Her release this time had her screaming and pushing down as I drove in and sucked her clit.
My body ached. I tore my mouth from her and stood, gripped her hips, positioned my cock at her entrance and thrust home. The intense lust filled brown eyes stared up at me and it only drove my need higher. I couldn’t look away from her beautiful face and I pistoned into her over and over. Her breasts bounced and it drove me to new highs as I took her all in. I let go of her hip with one hand, cupped a breast and caressed the nipple before I tweaked it and did the same to the other.
“You're so beautiful.” I pushed up and held her up so I could capture her lips. Our mouths met and we kissed until we both panted for breath and I didn’t think I could hold out much longer. I wanted her to come. I needed to feel her core squeeze my dick and take me into her.
Resting in the crook of her neck, I nibbled and sucked, wanting to leave my mark on her for all to know she was taken. Crazed with need to let go I bit down and she let out a scream and clutched my back, digging her nails into me. Her pussy pulsed around me and held me in a vice-like grip, tearing my own orgasm out of me. I came with a roar, filling her up with everything I had. She milked me dry and I pulled her to me so she straddled me as I sat back on my chair. I stroked her back and hugged her close.
After a while I was surprised when Divinity kissed my cheeks before brushing my lips and said. “I’m going to miss you, and not just the amazing sex we have, but just us being together. Your arms around me at night. The kisses you give me for no reason at all and the massages.” Her smile was not just of contentment but of happiness. “I have never had anyone look after me the way you have.” She brushed her lips over mine before she snuggled against my chest.
I’d gone soft in her and I knew I should get up and clean us both, but right then I didn’t want to do anything besides enjoy the moment.
