My eyes popped open on a gasp and I stared down at him, groaning, “You really are an asshole.”

Rainer chuckled darkly, sliding up my body, taking my bottom lip between his teeth. “Maybe. But I’ve waited too long for this. You will not come without me.”

When I felt his hot length pressing against my entrance, I had no more complaints. It was only right that we were in this together.

My body stretched around him as he entered me, a slight tinge of pain, but his mouth was on mine, soothing me as pleasure racketed through me once again.

Our bodies were in sync as we moved, his hips thrusting languidly. Without warning, he flipped our positions, his hands gripping my hips as I sat on top of him.

“Take what you want,” he breathed. “Everything I have to give is for you.”

The words sent a heady wave of lust through me and I rolled my hips, rocking against him. I started off slowly, enjoying the way Rainer stared at me with those midnight eyes, clouded with desire.

Eventually, my movements became faster, Rainer’s grip on my hips bruising as he thrust up into me. My head tilted backwards, my hair cascading down my back, as I bit my lip to hold in my moans. The absolute last thing I wanted right now was for someone to hear.

“Rainer, I’m so close, please,” I begged, not entirely sure what I was asking for.

But he knew. Taking the lead, he sat up until our chests pressed against each other, overriding my rhythm in favor of his own. Sucking my bottom lip into his mouth, his hand found my breast, kneading the flesh.

Pinching my nipple, he bit my lip, thrusting at just the right angle, and without another thought, stars dotted my eyes. My thighs shook as I squeezed Rainer’s cock, his low groan mingling with my quiet moan.

Together we came, our hearts beating as one. Rainer rested his forehead against mine, his eyes meeting mine, and I knew exactly what he was feeling. I had to, it was living inside my heart as well.

“It’s no longer me and Murphy against the world. It’s all of us.”

Chapter Fourteen

Rainer and I spent the night in the museum. By the time we had redressed, night had fallen and he decided it was safer here than anywhere else. I may have debated with his decision, but I never felt safer than when I was in his arms. The press of his gun against my hip throughout the night and knowing what he could do with the weapon also helped.

When dawn arrived, we were quick to replace as much of the fake bones and dirt as possible. Although the broken window was a dead giveaway that someone had been inside, we didn’t need them to know we had found the door.

The trip back to the hotel was boring, nothing out of the ordinary happening. If the reality of the situation, the happiness of finding the door, wasn’t sitting squarely on my chest, I could almost pretend that I was out for a morning stroll with the man I loved.

My joy only grew when we made it back to the hotel, Sasha and Warner already there.Everyone was safe.They wore frowns, clearly coming up empty-handed, but Warner’s gaze turned knowing when he took in my wide grin.

“You found it?” Sasha caught on quickly and Murphy whipped his head toward us from the front desk where he stood.

“No fucking way,” he uttered, letting out a loud whoop, his fist in the air.

Rounding the desk, he bounded toward us, pulling Rainer and me into a tight hug. Rainer wrapped an arm around his friend and I buried myself between them, unable to ignore the thoughts of how this would feel in an entirely different situation. One lacking clothes.

Unfortunately, a harsh tone ruined whatever fantasy was brewing in my head. Caroline stood at the entrance to her office, her eyes wide in shock. It was the first real emotion I had ever seen on her face.

“You found the entrance?” She said again, and pulling myself out of the embrace, I nodded.

“I did. What do we do now?”

Caroline didn’t respond, a single piece of hair falling out of her carefully crafted bun as she spun back toward her office. Shuffling through papers, I followed into the room, refusing to let her off the hook.

We had done as she asked. Risked our lives yet again, and now I wanted answers. I wanted to know exactly how she was getting us inside that bunker.

“Caroline. What is the next step?” My voice was firm, helped by the addition of the others in the room.

Mina, Aiden, and Elizabeth weren’t here, but the information would be easy enough to relay once we had it.

“Don’t worry. I have a plan,” Caroline muttered, but she was still rifling through papers, not looking up at me.

Stepping around her desk, I got right in her face, forcing her to meet my stare. “What is the plan?”
