Sailor shook her head and backed to the far door, hugging her knees as she broke down crying.
“Rue, I said…”
“Let’s get her home and get that blood off it, boss. She can wear it after it’s cleaned up,” Mig called back, his tone very neutral.
Geo snorted but put the ring away as he turned to look out his window.
Sailor stayed tight against her door, feeling lost.
He was a cold-blooded killer… she had to remember that. She couldn’t get complacent. He would kill her too, especially now if she pissed him off. She had to be careful.
When the car stopped and Mig killed the engine, she jerked and looked up, afraid.
Geo got out of the car and went in, leaving Mig to get Sailor out and take her inside. When he led her up to Geo’s room, she could hear the shower running in the bathroom.
“Give him a minute, then go in with him. Get you a shower,” Mig ordered her. “Get ready now, take all that shit off, then go in. Join ‘m.”
“I don’t want to! Not… not tonight, please?”
“I ain’t askin’,” Mig told her angrily. “I need to take you in there to ‘m? See how pissed he gets seein’ you balkin’?”
“N-no,” she whispered, pulling her hair down before she took her dress off.
Slipping in quietly, she slid the shower door open and stepped in with Geo. He ignored her, leaning against the wall on his hands and letting the water hit his back and run down.
Sailor wasn’t sure what to do, so she moved closer and hugged him from behind, sliding her hands around his waist and laying her head on his back. He took his hand off the wall and took hold of her hands clasped over his belly, holding her arms around him.
She meant it to be a brief hug, something to placate him and let him know she was there at the same time. A minute turned into five, and then ten. Finally, he turned and pulled her against him in a real hug, then walked her back to the back wall of the shower, lifted her on the wall, and held her there. Sailor gasped, arching away from the cold tile, but he ignored her discomfort as he looked over her face, his face a study of anguish and confusion.
“You belong ta me, Rue,” he told her, anger inflecting his tone.
“Yeah,” Sailor agreed, not because she felt like she was his,but because she knew it was what he wanted to hear.
“Forever.”
“Yeah,” she agreed again.
“No one else is ever gonna touch you.”
“Good,” she whispered, hugging his neck to try and pull away from the cold tile.
He growled slightly, then pulled her legs around his hips and reached down to grip his cock. Sailor sucked in another breath as he pushed into her, then held her there, making love to her gently against the wall as he held her up. Sailor sighed into his chest, gripping him and letting go of all her pain.
The bliss was better… so much better!
She let everything else go and just stayed there in the moment with him. It was euphoric! When he took her to bed after turning off the water, he kept her in that place, kissing her lips and her neck, using his fingers on her as she moaned and sighed and kissed him back.
When she passed out, it was in his arms, languid and satisfied.
Chapter 31
When morning came, he woke her with his mouth on hers, rolling her to her back to make love to her again.
Sailor was shocked to see Davon and Justin both downstairs waiting, Justin looking shellshocked and Davon looking pissed.
“You really had to…” Davon began as soon as he saw Geo.
“Check yourself,” Mig cut in. “You know the consequences of stealing from Geo.”
