Because that was what she was doing. Claiming. She kissed me with rawpassion, almost as if she weretellingthe mortal worldandthe underworld that I belonged to her, and that no one would take me away.
Blood rushed to mycockas my hand slid under the hem of her shirt andbrushed along the smooth skin of her thigh. Before I had the chance,Ravenyanked thetopover her head, her eyes blazing with desire.
At some point, she’d removed her bra, something I was only just noticing,distracted by our intense chat. Mygazedroppedto her beautifully pink nipples, my mouth watering with the need for a taste.
But when she reached under the cover and wrapped her hand around mycock, I squeezed my eyes shut, the incredible sensation hitting me straight in the balls and making mycockharder than steel.
“I need you inside me again,Mase,”shewhispered, running her hand up anddown mycocka few more times before climbing ontopso she was straddling me.
I hissed when she lined up her pussy and lowered herself onto my shaft, herhead tipping back as I filled her to the hilt.
“Fuck,Raven. I dreamed about this all the time we wereapart,”I breathed,my hands landing on her hips when she slowly started rolling them.
“Tell me more,Mase. Tell me more about our past.”
Trying to concentrate on not blowing my load after only a few thrusts, Iwaded through the countlessmemoriesI held onto from our past.“The first day wemet, you declared that I was your new best friend.”
Her eyesclosedas a fond smile crept over her mouth, her hips continuing torollat a devastatingly slow pace.“I remember. You said you didn’t have girls as friends.”
“Yeah, but you soon wormed your way in,”Ireplied, my heart racing as shefinally increased her pace, a crease forming between herbrows.
“What else?”
“You punched a boy at our school because he called me stupid,”I grittedout, holding back the need to flip her onto her back and pound thefuckout of her.“You stood over him and said that I was the cleverest person you ever knew.”
Her beautiful smilewidened.“Sounds like something I would do. Tell meabout the beach,”she panted.“I saw us as kidsplayingon the sand.”
Despite my climax nearing, confusion rolled through me.“We never went tothe beach,Blackbird.”
“Oh.”
She fell silentasidefrom moans of pleasureleavingher lips as she chasedher climax. Unable toholdback, I sat up, driving mycockin deeper. Her eyes shot open as I moved her legs towraparound mywaist, bringing her closer to me.
She laced her arms around my neck and brought her forehead tomine,and as we continued to meet each other thrust for thrust, she stared into my eyes.
My heart pounded. Not from the exertion, but from the rush of love I felt atthe moment.
I didn’t think I would survive losingRavena second time.
I wasn’t sure I wanted to.
Dig The Bitch Up
The Criminal
A heavy atmosphere filledthe air around us. Butch and Pyro hadn’t said asmuch, but I knew they blamed me, and they had every right to. I internally cursed myself as I stared at the floor, my lips pulling into a snarl.
I should have gone after Buck when he stormed out earlier instead of goingafter Roberts and assuming Buck could look after himself. I let my anger get the better of me.
And now he was dead.
We hunted Brenner down after we’d dealt with Roberts, but the Lieutenantwas next to useless. Yeah, he was usually helpful when providing the information we wanted, but with no suspects, the information he gave was pointless.
Whoever was going after my boys must have been a professional. How elsecould they leave a crime scene without a hint of evidence? I refused to believe any other theory as to who was behind the killings.
“We should have killed Roberts when we had the chance,”Pyro growledfrom the couch opposite me, finally breaking the tension between the three of us.
“We can get away with a lot of things, but murdering a cop isn’t one ofthem,”Butch snapped.“Especially a golden boy like Roberts. You think his FBI daddy will letthatslide?”
