Page 37 of Wicked Oath

“Laney, baby,” Talon says softly as he lifts my chin. “What happened, my love?”

“He tried to kill me,” I choke out. I swallow hard, a dull ache throbs in my throat from the force used. “He was going to kill me.”

“He was strangling her. Her lips were blue,” Viper says.

“What else?” Talon asks me, keeping his voice gentle.

“He… He raped me,” I whisper. Talon sighs and kisses me softly before speaking.

“I want you to sit with Viper for a moment, okay?” Talon says. “You absolutely do not have to be here for this. Just tell him and he can take you inside.”

“Are you going to kill him?” I ask.

“Yes,” Talon says simply. I nod and he moves me back into Viper’s lap. He kisses the top of my head before Viper hugs me tohis chest, almost afraid to let me go again. Viper, Rogue, Torch, and Knox are seemingly just as protective as Talon, and it makes me feel safe. They care so deeply for Talon and me in association. I have never second-guessed my safety with them.

Torch drags Fang up from the ground where he was sitting with his arms tied behind his back. Fang flinches when Talon rips the tape off his mouth, likely taking skin with it. I think for a second that he is going to have a conversation first, but Talon isn’t up for talking. He just wants to hear him scream. He grabs him by the hair and punches him one… two… three times in the face before dropping him to the ground.

Talon drops down and starts punching him over and over again, making Fang cry out in pain. When he grabs the sides of his head and starts slamming his head against the concrete, the cries turn to grunts but eventually he is silent and limp. Talon doesn’t stop and he is covered in blood as he destroys his head. He is putting every bit of rage behind his movements. There is no way Fang is still alive. This is made evident when we see brain matter on the concrete. Talon still isn’t stopping, so I get out of Viper’s lap as slowly approach him. The others are right behind me, but when I gently touch his shoulder, he snaps out of his rage and turns away from Fang to grab me. He pulls me into a tight hug, and I wrap my arms around him as he picks me up.

“Go. Take her upstairs. We will handle this,” Viper says gently.

Talon takes me inside and up to our room before sitting me on my feet in the bathroom. We are both covered in blood now, so he takes my top off before getting himself undressed. As soon as we are in the shower, I can see the adrenaline rushing out of him. I take over and start washing the blood off him. He is so mentallyexhausted that he doesn’t fight me. Taking care of him is what I need right now. I need a distraction, and he needs someone to care for him.

“I should be…”

“Shh,” I say, washing his body.

“I should be caring for you,” he says anyway.

“You just beat someone to literal death and beyond. Shush,” I say. He nods and lets me finish before I thoroughly wash my body. When I get done, I shut the water off and get us out of the shower, wrapping myself in a clean towel before drying his body. He is dazed but cooperative. I dry myself and brush my hair before moving us into the bedroom. I lay him down but as I go to walk away to shut the light off, he grabs my waist and pulls me on top of him. He has me lay on him so he can wrap me in a tight hug. His cock is hard and pressing against me, but his primary concern is just keeping me close to him. After a while, he realizes that he’s hard and tries to shift me so that I won’t notice.

“Why are you hiding from me?” I ask.

“I’m not. I just don’t want to…”

“To what?” I ask. “I understand consent. If I had an issue, I’d say something. I did before and I will now.”

“Laney, I…”

I suddenly pull away and move down to take his cock down my throat. I do it so suddenly that I pull a beautiful gasp from his lips as he fists my hair.

“Oh, fuck,” Talon groans as I suck hard and bob up and down on his cock. I go slow but take him as deep as I can, gagging myself in the process. He nearly moans when I make myself gag on him, but he doesn’t force me down. He lets me keep control and I draw out his pleasure as much as I can.

“Hmmm,” I hum around his cock.

“Fuck, Laney… God, I love your fucking mouth. Holy shit, that’s good,” he moans.

I move up so I can place my hands on his chest, and he can grab my waist as I abruptly push him inside of me. “Shit,” I groan.

“My God, woman,” he groans when I start to rock my hips. He helps keep me steady, but I lead all my movements.

“God, you feel so good,” I moan. “I need more. I want to forget, Talon. I want to forget every man who’s ever touched me except you. Please.”

“Take what you want from me, Little Flower. I am yours,” Talon reassures. I lean into him a bit more before I start nearly bouncing on him, taking his cock deep. I find a pace that I can maintain that has us both writhing in pleasure. I want him to absolutely fucking wreck me, but we need this moment to last a little longer. I need to see that he wants me, even when I am leading. Even when I am the one taking. I am leaning into himenough that my tits are in his face. He takes this opportunity to bite and suck my nipples, forcing moans and whimpers from me as it adds to my pleasure.

“Oh God,” I moan. “Please fuck me. Please.”

Talon rolls us, and panic slams down on me hard. “No, no, no. Look at me, Little Flower,” Talon says, brushing the hair out of my face when I abruptly start to cry.
