And just like that he shut down. Without a word, I stood up and went back inside. I found my clothes and started a load of wash. I went through his dresser and pulled out a fresh tee and some gray sweatpants. They were baggy, and I couldn’t help but think what all the extra room was for. I pulled the drawstring as tight as it would go and checked myself out in the full length mirror.
Pretty sexy. And the clothes smelled good. I could get used to this, and I can’t imagine he minds it. I saw the way his eyes ate me up on the balcony, and I was ready for the rest of him to eat me too.
My stomach growled. I looked in the pantry, but it was sparse. Clearly he didn’t plan on staying here long. I grabbed a few eggs and cracked them in a pan. I scrambled them, but probably not enough. They were watery, and unseasoned. I made toast next.
He had put his guard right back up once I started asking the wrong questions. I told him so much, and he told me almost nothing. Maybe I needed to keep asking the wrong questions. But he had to know he could trust me. I felt safe with him, and now I needed him to feel safe with me.
Chapter Four
Branch
She got up at the right time, my phone started pinging non stop with encrypted messages from Ruthless Corp the second she stood up. That’s not to say I didn’t let it ring for a few seconds while I watched her go back inside on those long legs, swaying that tight ass I could faintly make out under the white shirt.
My dick was still throbbing when I picked up my phone. Ruthless Corp was bombarding me. But all I could think about is what she told me. Never being alone with boys, maintaining the family reputation, it must mean…
She’s untouched.
It made my dick throb even harder. She’s a popular girl, no doubt there’s a line of men trying to be the first a mile long. I had work to do, but all I could think about was licking that sweet pussy until it was dripping and she was purring like a little kitten. Then I’d run my tongue up her body and suck those perky breasts. I’d slide my cock in her until I felt her cherry pop and thrust until neither of us could go any longer.
If I can’t control myself, Larz is going to kill me.
I checked my phone to distract myself from my rock hard dick. The tech guys at Ruthless back in L.A. had been working overtime while I’ve thought about the mischievous kitten in my bed.
Apparently those guys from Poland had been going back and forth between countries for weeks, but the King was just released a few days ago. They were up to something, something big.
It wouldn’t surprise me if whoever those thugs were working for knew the King was going to get out, and was making preparations to deal a fatal blow.
Maybe I shouldn’t have been so quick to let the asshole with the butcher knife go. But I was so caught in the moment. She was beautiful and mesmerizing. I was overwhelmed with hate for the man who tried to hurt her and I let him slip through the cracks.
And no doubt he ran back to HQ to warn his boss about the muscle protecting the princess. And if they know I’m looking out for her, their next attempt won’t be so haphazard.
I turned around to watch Fara through the door. She was wearing my sweatpants, they were baggy on her, but she tied the drawstring tight around her waist and I could see the outlines of her hips. If I’m not too careful I could split her in half.
I shouldn’t think like that. Larz would probably “disappear” me the way I disappeared the royal family’s enemies. But I couldn’t help it. I hadn’t been in Denmark in two years. And the last time was strictly professional. The long periods away from Copenhagen had me feeling more and more like a stranger. And why should I? I took care of Larz’ troubles and now the King was free. I saved the monarchy, but it didn’t make me feel like I belonged.
I remember meeting with Larz and Pet after I took care of the thugs who busted up her aunt’s home. How they both embraced me.
“Branch, you didn’t just save me. You saved my family. Without you, this wouldn’t have been possible.” When he was finished speaking I looked over to Pet. I couldn’t believe I hadn’t noticed, her stomach was round and her breasts swelled. She was pregnant. Larz was going to be a father.
“Larz Madsen is tied down. Never thought I’d see the day,” I beamed as I spoke. Larz slapped me gently in the ribs and hugged me.
