Page 3 of Up in a Blaze
“Yes, chérie. There has been no excitement. I am afraid I will have to bring in a book to read.”
She laughed. “You read?”
“I do not, but I am willing to try. We can’t tell Blaze any of this, of course.”
She nodded. “I hope things change soon. Not that I want drama to happen just for your sake. But it’ll help a lot of other people’s lives.”
“Oui, it will. Tech would murder me if I up and quit since Blaze moved their toy room there, and I think my man would help him.”
Dusty snorted. “Their toy room?”
“Oui, they play and play and play on their little screens.” I picked up my glass and drank the rest of the soda.
“You’re not really salty over them working, right?”
“Non. I get jealous with the time he pays his work. But when he gives me all his attention, that makes up for ignoring me.”
She grinned. “You get jealous over computers, and he gets jealous over anyone looking at you.”
“We are a fiery couple that go well together. Most days.” Leaning in, I kissed her cheek. “Have a good night, chérie.”
“Talk to you later. And, Henri, try to have fun.”
I winked, standing. “I will make fun somehow.” Worry pinched her brows, and I quickly reassured her with “Do not fret. No harm will come to your man’s business.”
“Or you,” she called as I walked off.
Turning back, I blew her a kiss and loudly said, “Au revoir.”
What I loved about this biker place was that I wasn’t treated as an outsider—like now when many returned my farewell.
Outside the computer room, I tapped on the door and said, “Stop stroking those keys. I am coming in.” I pushed through and stepped in. Neither of them looked over at me and continued to tap, tap, tap away. Sighing, I glared at the back of Blaze’s head. “Mon amour, if you don’t stop, I will strip naked and—” I smiled when he spun his chair around to me. “Better. We don’t want to scare your friend.”
“I agree,” Tech muttered.
Blaze scowled at him. “You’d be fuckin’ honored to look at him naked.”
Tech stopped typing and groaned. “Yeah, yeah. Your man is a god.”
I preened. “Why, thank you. I can give you a sneak peek.”
Tech stood, hands up in front of him. “I don’t wanna peek at anythin’. Stop tryin’ to get your man to kill me.”
Chuckling, I shrugged. “But I think if you were not here, I would have more of his attention.”
Blaze let out a deep huffing sound and stalked toward me. When he stopped in front of me, he wound an arm around my back and with the other he gripped the front of my throat to pull me close. “Stop being greedy, firecracker. You get the best of my attention.”
Melting against his chest, I glided my hands up over his hard muscles. “You like me being greedy, mon amour.”
His gaze softened and heated as he remembered how greedy I had been by swallowing his cock and seed twice before we’d come to the compound.
The hand around my throat tightened, and he watched me closely as he deprived me of oxygen.
He’d wait until I was nice and red in the face and marked around the neck before he allowed me to breathe.
He loved how needy I got when he controlled me and my body.
Releasing my throat, he said, “Let’s get you to work.”
