Her fingers brushed against my length as she stroked herself higher and higher, stoking a fire in my veins until I couldn't take it anymore. "Cazzo," I groaned.
Sadie cried out her orgasm while the person walked back from the bathroom, passing by the hall and staring straight at us. As I flooded her with my release, I made sure to shield her from view with my body leaning over her. They shouldn't be able to see her face or her body because of the shadows, but I did everything I could to make sure of it.
The person scurried along, probably all too familiar with the kind of things that happened in the Underground.
"Do you think they saw?" Sadie asked, her voice trembling but not out of fear or embarrassment. It would be just like her to want to be watched, but I'd have a hard time taking it that far. As I pulled out, she spun to face me and straightened out her skirt. Immediately I regretted ruining her thong, wanting the cover it offered her pussy with those slits that neared the tops of her thighs. She grinned at me, full of mischief. "Maybe next time you'll stop and think before you ruin my underwear. Those were expensive."
"I'll buy you new ones," I said, tucking myself back into my pants. Putting a still wet cock in my pants might have been uncomfortable with other women, but with Sadie it felt like a point of pride to know that I'd go back to the arena covered in her.
Caveman? Maybe.
Too bad I didn't have any intention of stopping, not even as I guided her back to the cage and up the steps so we could settle in to watch the rest of the night. My dick covered in her, me leaking out of her.
All was right in my world.
Sadie showed no shame for the cum that must have leaked between her thighs, walking with steps as long as she could manage as her thighs peeked out the slits on either side of her skirt. Heads turned as we walked, my fingers twitching against the small of her back as I kept my hand on her. Pale grey eyes met mine from the middle of the crowd on the top level; Murphy’s second-in-command studying me as my gaze halted on him.
Sliding my arm around Sadie’s hip to curl her into my side, I didn’t look down at her as I angled my face so that she would be able to hear me over the roar of the crowd. “One of Murphy’s men is here.”
She stilled, only resuming her path up the steps as I urged her on. We bypassed the VIP booth, following Sean as he turned on his tail and retreated out the doors at the top of the dome. “Do you see Massimo?” I asked, taking her hand in mine and guiding her through the crowd that hadn’t yet found their seats. She hurried to keep up with the pace that I set as we emerged into the concrete basement.
Massimo was gone from the betting tables, nowhere to be seen throughout the cavernous space.
“Were you looking for me, Lorenzo?” Sean asked from my right as I spun to face him. My hands twitched to go for my gun, but even in a Bellandi run operation like the Underground, there were far too many witnesses for me to rid the city of one of the parasites that infected it.
“What the fuck are you doing here, Sean?” I asked, glaring at the man. Sadie sensed my desire for my gun, her anxiety ratcheting up. Curling herself into me and playing the part of a needy woman, she slid her hands inside my coat. Her fingers brushed against my holster gently, unsnapping it subtly so that she could wrap her fingers around it.
I didn’t know how quick a draw she would be or how good a shot she was, but just knowing that she accurately read the situation eased some of my tension.
“I enjoy a good fight like most men,” Sean shrugged, his eyes drifting away from my face to study Sadie. “Is this one of Massimo’s new whores for the fighters? She looks far too small to handle them,” he chuckled.
“You know exactly who she is, considering Tiernan ordered your boy to steal her from her apartment,” I warned with a growl, drawing his eyes back up to mine.
“Ah, I’d heard rumors you were protecting the friend, but I didn’t realize getting your dick wet was a perk of the job. Perhaps I have underestimated Matteo, after all.” Sadie stilled against my chest, and I could practically feel her struggle to keep her mouth shut. “The things I could do with a perk like that...” he trailed off.
“I’m sure your girlfriend would be thrilled to know what a lovely man you were,” Sadie snapped. I bit my tongue to restrain my laughter, hating how much the women talked to each other. Sean’s girlfriend had been part of the plot to lure Calla away from her security with deception and misplaced trust, so that they could use her to arrange a meeting with Ryker.
Why Sean would be stupid enough to be complicit in that, I didn’t know. He was far too dumb to be anyone’s second-in-command, and if Tiernan had a man like Ryker at his disposal? Sean would quickly become redundant.
“She knows exactly what kind of man I am, pretty girl. She’d welcome you to our bed with open arms. She has a thing for helping me teach defiant little girls where they belong.”
“And where is that?” Sadie asked, her voice issuing a challenge even as I tightened my grip on her in warning. The conversation didn’t need to escalate.
Not when I couldn’t tear him limb from limb.
“On your knees for me. Choking on my dick,” he said with a lecherous smile.
“Shut your fucking mouth before I do it for you. I can promise you when I do, it will be a permanent situation. She’s off limits,” I snapped, tucking Sadie behind me slightly.
“Murphy always planned to kill her, but I think I’ll enjoy breaking her down bit by bit. Turning her into my little bitch. Maybe the first time I fuck her will be on your bloody corpse. She does look real good in red,” he sneered, grey eyes glinting as he thought about my woman in a way I’d never allow. “I’ll see you around, pretty girl,” he warned, turning and disappearing into the crowd.
Everything in me itched to follow him and put him down like the rabid dog he was. It was only the reality that I’d be bringing Sadie into a dangerous situation that stopped me. “He talks a big game. Choking on his dick,” she scoffed, grinning up at me playfully to try to draw me back from the haze that threatened the edges of my vision. “I could probably use it to pick my tee
th.”
I sighed a slight laugh, turning and guiding her back toward the betting tables to find Massimo and make it clear to him that all his men were to know Murphy’s guys were not allowed on site.
No matter how much she might try to cheer me up, nothing would change one simple truth.
