I was in an alley, down on my knees, ready to do whatever I had to do just to survive. Offering up the only thing I had left for just a few dollars so I could eat. Yeah, never said my past wasn’t colored in gray.
But I never got the chance to stoop that low, because a dark, mysterious man stopped it all. At first, I had thought he wanted to get some of the action, but then he said the most unexpected thing as he held out his opened hand to me.
“There is only one way to go from here.”
I would never forget those words as long as I lived.
And so, I took his hand and got up off of my knees and let him lead me out of that dark alley.
He took me to his home, which happened to be out in the middle of fucking nowhere with not a neighbor around for miles. After a while, he began to pass on everything that he knew to me. That happened to be…you guessed it…how to kill a man without anyone knowing. You see, this dark stranger was a contract killer and a fucking good one at that. So, I learned everything from him that I now use to make a living.
And let me make this clear, there was never anything weird between us. He never once made me feel uncomfortable or tried anything with me. I believed we were kindred spirits, like in another life he could have been my brother. That was exactly how I felt about him and I knew it was the same for him. He was the first man in my life that treated me like a person and showed me respect as much as he demanded it from me. When the time came, he encouraged me to spread my wings and fly.
But all of that I kept to myself. Noah had learned enough about me for now. More than enough, but it wasn’t like I could take it back.
So when he realized that I was all talked out, he lifted me up and took me to bed.
This time was different than the first. It was unhurried and sweet, something I was not used to at all but somehow found myself craving as much as my next breath. He loved every inch of me before tasting me. His tongue worked expertly around my clit and the feeling of his beard against my thighs only made it impossible to hold back my orgasm.
