Page 31 of Stealing His Christmas Present

Chapter 11

I WATCHED THE CAMERAfeed like a hawk. Claudia all but moaned as her mouth closed around a piece of toast.

She’d won.

I’d thought I would break her, but instead, she’d mesmerized me again. I didn’t know what it was about her, but when she’d dropped that towel, all my plans had flown right through the window.

I’d forgotten everything except her.

When I’d run my fingers over her soft skin and when her bottom had turned a nice shade of pink under my palm, my cock had been so hard I could barely think. Her pussy had been glistening with wetness too.

I should’ve sent her back to her cell and not given her the bag. But I couldn’t bring myself to do it.

For a moment, I was sucked back into a memory.

“Come over here,” the guard in front of my cell said.

He waved a piece of meat.

I was too tired and too hungry to move, and the last thing I’d eaten were some scraps someone had thrown into my cell.

“Come on. I’ll put it right here. You can have it,” he said, placing the meat on the floor just outside the bars, within my reach.

I pushed myself up, even though every inch of my body protested. Inch by inch, I dragged myself across the floor.

When I pushed my hand through the bars, the guard snatched the piece of meat.

“Sucker!” He laughed. “Did you really think I’d give it to you? You’re not worthy of it.”

He tossed the meat to the other side of the room, where the cat that sometimes snuck down into the dungeon happily ate it.

I forced the memory out of my mind and focused back on Claudia. A deeply hidden part of me wanted to go down there, wrap her in a blanket, and take her to my bed.

She didn’t belong in a cell, and I wanted her even more than I’d thought was possible. My cock roared to life as soon as I thought about her.

Fuck.

I had to do something about it.

At least Claudia wanted me too. I was sure of it. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t have agreed to do what she’d done.

It was progress. Soon, she’d be fully mine, and then I’d be free of her forever.

I’d been longing for her for so long that she’d turned into an obsession.

But once I had her and I’d gotten everything I wanted for her, there’d be no more reasons left for me to care about her at all.

I couldn’t let her win.

I couldn’t let her be my weakness.

Not anymore.

AS I WAS ON MY WAYto Claudia’s cell, I stared at the empty rooms and hallways. This whole house was so damn lifeless and cold, but there was no one to breathe some life and light into it.

As I descended the stairs, the temperature rose, but that was only because I was keeping Claudia’s cell warmer than the rest of the house.
