Page 23 of Consequences
“I’ll leave you be now. And…I’m sorry. Not for falling in love, but for telling you like this. If it could have waited, if there were any other way, please believe that I would have told you differently.”
“How generous of you,” he says coldly.
“I do respect you and your position, Padrone. So does Emilio. He did the best he could, given the circumstances.”
One last brief touch to Emilio’s hand, and I move away. Before leaving the room, I stop by Tennant’s prone form. Desperately wishing he was able to hold me through this, but I agree with Doc’s choices, as hard as they are. Tennant wouldn’t have allowed himself to properly heal if he was awake.
Bending down, I press a kiss to his forehead. “I need you, Love.”
Straightening, I don’t look back as I leave two-fourths of my heart behind.
Iglance at the papers, making sure they’re all in order as I stand outside Jude’s—well, Ten’s—office. My skin feels tight, and I know exactly why.Him.
Fuck, this is not the right time to be having these distractions, but damn if my emotions aren’t all over the place. Lio is always given grace when he needs to be put on his knees, but he’s not the only submissive that requires it.
The same guard as before stands outside the door, and he pokes his head in to let Jude know I'm here. “He can enter,” is said loud enough for me to hear, and I swallow hard at his command—because itisa command, not mere permission.
Opening the door, I slide in and stand in front of his desk. I wait for him to put his hearing aids in, and give me approval to speak.
“Do you have something for me, Bello?”
I shiver, unable to stop myself. His deep voice, and the way he rolls right over that word—bello. With the scars that have been left on me…beautiful isn’t something I feel often. Yet the intensity of his gaze makes me believe he actually can see me that way.
Straightening, I nod. “Yes, Sir.” I stop and gauge his reaction to the honorific. The quirk of his lips, and rise of an eyebrow, gives me hope. Blinking, I press on as I pass over the documents. “I have these for you. I’ve given Hollis the information from the warehouse, but these are more regarding possible moles. I gave the Martelli list to Benjamin already.”
Jude stares at me after taking the documents, enough to put me on edge. Finally, he addresses me. “Thank you, Bello. I was unaware you were working on this, in addition to everything else. You seem tired.”
I cringe before blushing, dropping my eyes immediately. I tug at my suit jacket, trying to smooth it down. “I know… I'm not looking my best right now. I?—”
“Did I say that, Bello?” I jolt at the steel in his voice, but keep my eyes averted, despite hearing movement. My mind is too caught up in its own cycle of despair.
When strong fingers catch my chin, forcing me to look up, I blink at the expression on Jude’s face. There’s a level of intensity—of heat—that makes my knees weak.Fuck. It ratchets up my desire, and I whimper at it.
“Oh, poor Bello, you need something don’t you?”
“Yes, Sir,” I whisper, desperately wishing he’d give it to me, but knowing I have no control.
Jude chuckles and shakes his head. “I’ll give you a chance to prove you’re ready for me.”
He leans forward and captures my mouth in a kiss. It’s not gentle, there’s an ownership to it, and I desperately give in,letting him control every moment. I gasp when he pushes me away, not realizing I had thrown myself at him. “I’m sorry, Sir.”
“Did I tell you to apologize?” he asks harshly, and I shake my head. “Then don’t. I’ll give you a direct order if I want something from you. Undress.”
My hands shake as I carefully take off my suit. I fold it on the chair he gestures at, even though I wish I could hang it up. I twitch a little, but refuse to back down, even if it means creasing one of my favorite suits.
Soon enough, I stand there completely naked, while he’s still fully dressed. The wolfish expression on his face sets me on edge, and thrills me at the same time. Even as he rakes his eyes across my body, taking in every scar that litters it. Nothing in his face shows disgust, and I shudder with a breath of relief.
I bite my lip, before moving my shoulders back and asking, “What next, Sir?”
Humming, he walks around me, his fingers trailing over my skin. Goosebumps break out wherever he touches, and I moan quietly, desperate for whatever he wants next.
He finally stands in front of me again and presses on my shoulders. I immediately go to my knees and stare up at him. I clasp my hands behind me as Jude taps my lips, and I part them in anticipation.
He slowly unzips his pants, pushing them and his underwear partially down. It’s enough for me to see his cock and I tense, wanting to take it in my mouth immediately, but knowing I don’t have permission yet. It’s thick and perfect. I can imagine the way it’ll fill my mouth, and can’t fucking wait.
He grabs my hair and yanks me forward. I gasp with pleasure as he states, “Suck me. I want to see what that beautiful mouth can do.”
I don’t hesitate as I capture his already half hard cock in my mouth. There’s no teasing, as I don’t have the patience for it.I take him all the way down, before pulling back, pressing my tongue against the underside of his cock and sucking harder. I swirl my tongue over the head before taking him deeper again.
