Page 120 of Restitution

“I’m…” She shakes in my hold. “Oh God. Kade!”

I circle her clit, and Stacey moans into my mouth as her orgasm smacks into her. I ride her through it, feeling her pleasure; how soaked she becomes as she pulses and throbs. I pinch and circle, dragging my lips to her throat and sucking on the flesh there.

She comes down from her high, panting, but I’m not done. I’m going to make her explode again, then I’m going to fill her with every fucking drop of me.

I slam her down on my dick, and she screams.

“Fuck. I missed this.”

“This?” she barely says as she grabs at my shoulders with each powerful thrust.

Her back hits the mattress then, and I turn her around so her chest is against the bed and sink into her pussy from behind. “Being in control. You. Us. All of it.”

Her whimper mixes with a pleasurable scream as I keep going, and the tightness in my chest comes back at watching my girl fall apart once more, gripping the sheets. It only takes me a few more pumps before I sink in once more and fill her with my cum.

I drop onto the mattress once my dick stops throbbing inside her, and she rolls onto her back beside me. She pants, both of us looking at the ceiling. “Even when we’re asleep, we want each other.”

“Yeah,” I reply, turning my head to watch her – the way her tits move with each breath, her freckled skin, the smoothness of every inch of her. “You still take it like a good girl.”

She rolls her eyes, but her smile stays there. “Shut up.”

I want to memorise everything about her, from the softness of her skin to the dimples as she smiles to the sound of her laugh when we banter with each other. I want to hear her voice tellingme forever that she loves me, and that it will never change.

It’s a miracle the police haven’t barged into my room and cuffed me yet. I’m still in bed, with my girl, and I’m going to make every second of it count.

Starting by getting everything out in the open.

I turn onto my side. She shivers as I circle her nipple.

“I know I apologised already, but I was fucked up at the time. I should have heard your side with that video, but I also should’ve realised you were being abused at home. I would have killed him, you know? The first sign of him hurting you, I would have killed him.”

She rests her hand on my cheek, and it feels like I’ve not been touched this way for years. “I lied and kept Chris hidden, so you wouldn’t have been able to know what was happening at home.”

“I should have noticed,” I say, and I feel my eyes burning. I shut them and sink my face against her palm. “Things could’ve been so different if I’d just noticed.”

“Stop blaming yourself,” she replies and moves so she’s straddling me. Naked still, may I add. “From this moment on, no more apologies. We heal. Together.”

“What about yesterday?”

She tilts her head in confusion, and I slide my hands to the apex of her thighs. “What do you mean?” she asks, her voice quiet.

“I strangled you.”

“No one said this would be easy. Some days are going to be really hard, but at least we’ll have each other.”

Well, if hard days involve attempted murder on your other half, then okay. “What have I ever done to deserve someone as amazing as you?”

“Keep being romantic.”

I huff and sit up. “I’m not romantic.”

She giggles and grabs me, bringing our lips together. “You are. Now kiss me until we forget our own names.”

I inhale smoke into my lungs and watch my team patrolling the perimeter. The crowd is still circling the manor, but the police helicopter is now gone, and two drones bypass my balcony.

“Chokehold” by Sleep Token is playing from somewhere out on the grounds. Or maybe it’s the crowd. They’re always playing music or chanting.

My phone is still off, the battery dead, so I’ve not heard anything else, nor do I know the damage I did to the underworld. Beyond killing someone live, I’ve really put my foot in it with the elite and leaders of the dark side of crime. It’s just a matter of time before it all bites me in the ass, but I’ll make sure I’m ready. If the police can be held at bay for a few more days, then I’ll put an end to all of this.
