Page 43 of Brutal Vows
The last woman I felt something for was kidnapped because of me.
She was shot because of me.
She wound up in Russia, impregnated by her Bratva assassin fucking kidnapper, all because I failed to keep her safe.
With my cursed luck with women, I know better than to ever let feelings get involved in my relationships again.
Yet here I am with my bloody idiotic divining-rod dick blasting at full speed in the direction of a woman they call the Black Widow.
A woman who’s like a mother to my soon-to-be bride.
A woman who hates me with a burning passion.
A woman who can never, ever be mine.
I yank my hands from her body and turn away, wondering what the fuck I ever did to make God hate me so much.
TEN
REY
Quinn stalks away from me, leaving me gasping.
Gasping and shaken to my core.
I can count on the fingers of my left hand the times I’ve experienced true attraction in my life. None of them were anything like this.
My nipples are hard, my hands are shaking, and my damn clitoris is tingling.
Tingling.
To match all the fireworks going on inside my uterus. I never imagined I’d one day actually feel my ovaries throb and pulse like they were hooked up to electrodes, but here we are.
I have to get off the carousel before I throw a leg over this pony and start grinding against the poor thing.
I slide off the horse, landing awkwardly on the metal platform with a thud. I have to take a moment to allow my quaking knees to settle down. Then I take a deep breath, put my shoulders back, and shakily retrace my steps to where I discarded my heels.
I grab them and jump off the merry-go-round.
Barefoot, I make my way to the entry gate to wait for it to stop.
I stand there with my dry mouth and my pounding heart and my utter confusion, which is only slightly less severe than my guilt.
I wanted Lili’s awful fiancé to kiss me.
I groan, covering my eyes with a hand, glowing with shame that what I really wanted was so much more than that.
I wanted his mouth on every inch of my skin.
And I know in my bones he’d know exactly what to do with that mouth of his, too. He’d know exactly how to make me moan and beg, how to make me delirious with pleasure.
He’d let his big, rough hands roam all over my body while he lavished my pussy with his tongue, then he’d flip me on my belly and pull my hair and growl filthy things into my ear as he fucked me.
Fucked me hard and deep, because that Irishman is nothing if not powerful.
If I wasn’t already going to hell for all my other sins, I’m definitely going for this.
The carousel eventually slows, then stops. Lili and Quinn get off along with everyone else. They make their way to me as I try to look anywhere but at Quinn’s face.
