Liam chuckles and pats Maggie on the head before my two brothers wave cheerily at me and leave.
And then I’m all alone with Maggie in this small space and my lungs can’t expand nearly enough. My breaths come out in small, short pants as I take him in.
God, he’s so fucking pretty.
He moves toward me, his eyes roaming over my body. I notice that his hazel eyes are red-rimmed, his cheeks flushed. His gaze tracks over my naked form and he bites down on his bottom lip.
“I have a lot to say to you, Sem,” he says, his voice husky. “And you’re going to stay right here and listen.”
He reaches into a drawer and pulls out a knife and my dick jumps. Fuck, that’s hot.
Slowly, he flips the blade open and stares at it a moment.
Then he holds it over my skin, tracing a light path down my thighs to the rope holding my wrists and ankles together.
With a flick of his wrist, he slices through it and then shakes his head.
“This knife is unnaturally sharp,” he mutters as I stretch out before him. My cock bobs under my boxers and Maggie’s eyes flare with lust. He lowers his eyebrows and holds the knife out at me.
“Donotget hard right now. Not until I’m done with you. I have shit to say, and I don’t need the distraction.”
I glance down at my tented boxers and press my hands against it. It doesn’t help. I haven’t touched it in seven days. It’s angry and deprived.
“Stop touching it,” he huffs. Then he sets the knife down and straddles my chest. I nuzzle my face into his crotch, and he curses me. He wrestles my hands above my head, and I don’t even fight it, just let him secure me to the headboard.
“God, you are infuriating. I cannot believe I even have to do this,” he mutters and then rolls off of me, leaving me nearly despondent.
“Okay,” he says breathless, running a hand through his hair, mussing it slightly. “Okay, now keep your mouth shut. Can you do that? I don’t want to have to gag you.”
I blink at him and then he nods, determination filtering through his gaze.
“I had to resort to desperate and extreme measures since you’re an asshole. Your brothers, of course, were kind enough to help with my little plan. It’s scary, actually, how into it they were.”
I shift on the bed a little and his eyes are drawn to my crotch.
His cheeks redden and he looks away.
“Now, here’s how this is going to go. I’m going to list your infractions and you’re going to plead guilty. Do you agree to that?”
I swallow. What the fuck is an infraction?
“Did you or did you not leave me with Colin when I expressly asked you to stay?”
I close my eyes, regret filling my chest and give a clipped nod.
“Did you flee, even when I told you that if you did it would be the end of us?’
I blink rapidly and nod again.
“Why would you do that, Sem? Do you want this to be over?”
I exhale shakily.
“I’ll take that as a no. Is that a no?”
I lick my lips and nod. “No.”
He reaches out and runs a fingertip across my arm and my entire body lights up. Imagine if he actually ran his hand across my chest. I’d combust.
