I felt his fingers closing around my hair as he gently pulled my head back. With his other hand, Makari grabbed my breast. Breathing hard, I firmly took hold of the sides of the hot tub as he started pounding me. My body vibrated as I released. Lifting my head, I screamed as delight tore through me.
Reaching back, I grabbed hold of his tights as I felt all the strain leaving my body. I floated on a cloud of euphoria as I felt him slowing. He gave two deep thrusts and then stopped. He rubbed my back before stepping away.
Makari wrapped his arms around me, pulling me to him. We stood for a moment, breathing hard. As he let go, I turned to face him. Taking his face into my hands, I kissed him hard before sitting down. He sat next to me until our breathing had normalized.
“You want me to take you back, or are you staying for the night?” he asked, getting up.
“I’m quite tired, and it’s late. You can take me back in the morning,” I replied.
Makari nodded as he got out. He held out a towel for me and wrapped it around my shoulders before opening the door. Quietly, we went up to his room. As I lay down, I felt my eyes closing. This is where I belong was the last thing swimming through my mind as I drifted off to dreamland.
Sitting down at the breakfast table, I smiled at Makari, who was sitting beside me. Pavel wasn’t at the table, but I felt sure he would join us soon. He never missed a meal. “Would you mind if we collected my things today?” I asked.
“Collect your things?” Makari enquired, sounding surprised.
“Yes,” I replied excitedly. “I think I’m ready to return to your place for good.” I felt more at home with him, but I wasn’t ready to tell him that.
“Yeah, sure. We can do that,” he said, beaming. “Right after breakfast, we’ll quickly go and get your things at Vadik’s house.”
Nodding, I continued eating. Once breakfast was done, we cleaned up and headed out. The drive to Vadik and Tasha’s home wasn’t long. They stayed quite close, actually. I loved how the brothers shared a tight bond.
I had let Tasha know we were coming. She stood at the door as we pulled up. “Good morning,” she said as we approached.
“Morning,” Makari replied, taking my hand.
“Vadik wants to see you,” she added as we stepped inside.
“Okay, in his office, I take it,” Makari asked.
“Yes, I’ll assist Grace in getting her things while you have a chat,” Tasha responded as Makari headed up the stairs. Turning to me, she smiled as she spoke. “How are you, dear?”
“Better, thank you,” I responded as we moved to the room I was staying in. I hadn’t brought everything, so there wasn’t much to pack. I collected my toothbrush, hairbrush, and a couple of pieces of clothing. Once they were packed, we headed back downstairs.
Makari and Vadik were already waiting at the door. “Morning, you good?” Vadik asked as Tasha and I joined them.
“Morning, yes, thank you for everything,” I replied, giving Vadik and Tasha a quick hug before leaving.
Makari took my bag up to the room and placed it on the bed. “Need help?” he asked.
“All good, but thank you,” I replied.
“No problem,” he said, walking to the door. “I have some things to take care of, but I’ll see you at dinner.”
“Can’t wait,” I called after him as he walked off.
After I had unpacked, I lay down for a bit. With school out of the way, I could relax and focus on my future. I drifted off and only woke just before five. The house was quiet. I wondered if Makari was back yet.
I freshened up and headed down. Pavel was in the kitchen preparing dinner. “Hi, there,” he said as I entered.
“Hey, anything I can assist with?” I asked.
He smiled and nodded as he spoke. “Yes, please. I’m almost done so if you could set the table so long?”
“No problem,” I replied, grabbing the plates and cutlery he had set on the counter. I had just added the glasses to the table when I heard the front door slamming open. Pavel looked up at me as he placed down the salad bowl.
“That must be Makari,” he huffed, running around the table and going to the front door. The look on his face froze my blood. I turned and followed him. Something was wrong, and I had to see what.
Coming around the corner, I saw Pavel moving to his side. Makari looked like he had been in an altercation. Pavel pushed his arm around Makari, holding him up as they trudged towards me. There was a cut above Makari’s left eye running down his cheek.
