This was a make or break moment. I had been patient with her, allowing her to live before I moved in to make her mine. Seven months since I first laid eyes on her. Six months since I discovered her sacrifice. Five months of watching every move she made. Five weeks since I had tasted her perfect pussy and started watching her get herself off, moaning my name. The events of tonight sped the process up and there was no way she was getting away from me now. Not when the monster got a taste of blood... for her.
She blinked twice and nodded her head, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear as she responded. “I probably shouldn’t trust you, but I do.”
I winked at her and closed the door, leaving her in the truck alone. Walking back to her car, I grabbed her purse, removed her car key from the ring, and left it inside. They were becoming more alert from their prone position on the ground, but with the amount of alcohol they consumed tonight, I wasn’t worried about them jumping up and running off. I dialed Skid.
“What’s up?” he answered.
“I need a cleanup crew at Falcon’s Tavern. Two injured.” I looked over and the driver was still unconscious while the passenger kept trying to get to his knees but every time, he fell back to the ground with a loud groan. “Also, Amaya’s car is broken down and I need it towed to a garage.”
Without question he replied, “No dead? I’m impressed. I’ll be there in ten with Freddie. Are you covered?”
“All threats have been neutralized, but she’s pretty shaken up. I need to get her out of here.”
I could hear him tapping and he replied. “My brother is up the block from you. When you hear his bike, take off. I’ve got it covered.”
“I owe you.”
“Add it to my bill.” He chuckled and disconnected the call.
Placing a swift kick into both their stomachs, I leaned down and whispered. “Never try to take something that doesn’t belong to you.”
I walked back to my truck and found Amaya leaned back against the seat. Her arms were crossed over her chest and her eyes closed. She appeared to be asleep until I opened the door. She turned her face to mine and smiled at me. She wasn’t afraid of me and she had just watched me beat two men bloody.
For her, I would kill and revel in the blood.
“It’s handled. We can leave as soon as...” a motorcycle pulled into the lot and flashed their lights, showing the area was secured for cleanup.
Pulling away from the curb, I drove up through town and toward her house.My house, but she didn’t know it.
Amaya
I cursed myself for not getting my car checked last week when it started getting worse, but I had been so happy to finally have a job, and I worried about missing work for a car repair. I was seconds away from calling Hayden and asking him to come back when the truck screeched to a halt in front of me. Jumping back, I noticed two guys from the loud table spilling out of the truck.
Fear licked up my sides as they began telling me what they wanted to do, and I froze. I was trapped and alone. Swallowing deeply, I prayed to find a way out of this as the darkness inside grew bigger, promising me safety. I was terrified of what they would do to me and I was just as terrified how I would react.
What if they tried to rape me and I enjoyed it?
You’ve done worse than let two men fuck you... whore.
Shaking my head to suppress the voices calling from deep inside, I looked around trying to find a way out. One of them rubbed my arm and was stroking my hair when I saw movement behind them in the dark. My eyes grew wide when the second guy was ripped backward, and with a single punch from my rescuer landed unconscious on the ground, blood pouring from his mangled nose.
The man closest to me turned and tried to attack the man in the baseball hat, and I crouched down by my car, tucking my face into my knees, and wrapping my arms around my legs. Glancing up briefly, I saw the man who was touching me laying face first on the ground as the faceless man approached me.
It took a moment for me to recognize James, but when I did, I wanted to throw myself into his arms. He secured me into his truck, and I watched as he casually strolled back to the two men still on the ground. He made a quick phone call before walking back to the truck.
I closed my eyes and tried to steady my breathing. His aggressive act of protection had my pussy throbbing with need and my brain screaming at me to show him gratitude. He climbed into the truck and I felt a smile push at the corners of my mouth. James shifted the truck into drive as we left the two bleeding men, two men who wanted to hurt me, laid out on the ground with a scary-looking biker watching over them.
We passed another vehicle who flashed their lights at us, and James exhaled as he glanced over at me. I couldn’t stop looking at him as he turned his eyes back to the empty road in front of us. Resisting the urge to lean over and kiss him, I wrapped my arms around myself and let my gaze drift to the passing scenery.
Get it together! If he wanted to fuck you, he already had the opportunity. Stop thinking like a whore and be grateful he saved you.
Shaking my head, I let the events of the last half hour drift out of my head. I refused to think I could have ended up like my sister,or worse.James saved me and I didn’t know how to respond to it. Instinctively, I licked my lips and I heard a low groan coming from him.
The truck slowed and we stopped as the railroad barriers dropped across the road, their loud signal bells and red flashing lights illuminating James’s handsome face. He placed the truck in park and turned to face me as the sound of the train’s horn approaching blared into the vehicle. I could feel the vibrations of the approaching train as its engines sped past us and the cars passed in a blur.
I looked to him and saw the flashing lights blanketing him in red, casting harsh shadows over the angles of his face. His clear green eyes roamed up and down my body and he reminded me of a fallen angel dancing in the flames, ready to eat me alive. I resisted the urge to straddle his lap and kiss him breathless. No one besides my sister had ever defended me, and no one had ever fought to protect me. Maybe it was the contract he held over me, maybe it was the check I had cashed that bought and paid for my ass,literally, but all I wanted to do was have him fuck the pain away.
I watched as he licked his lips and felt his hypnotic green eyes up and down my body, caressing me without touching me. The energy coming off him as I watched him watching me had my pussy weeping and my nipples becoming painfully tight under my tight t-shirt. The last train car passed, and the rails rose into the air, breaking the spell I was under.
