I feel like he’s challenging me. Reaching for his length. I use my hands to work him by twisting my hands, I stroke him up and down and bob my head against the first three or four inches I can fit into my mouth.

“Yes,” he groans and throws his head back while lacing his fingers behind his head.

I smile and get more into it. When I flick my gaze up, he’s watching me with a sexy smile on his face. I feel proud of myself as he looks at me.

Drool spills from the sides of my mouth, but I’m on a mission. My jaw starts to ache after a while, and I slow my pace. Gio grunts and places his hands behind my head as he pumps his way to a finish.

“Fuck, Ny,” he yells as he comes in my mouth, and it slides down the back of my throat.

CHAPTER 25

Jace

I step out of the staircase as my target passes by after he steps off the elevator, heading for his apartment. This piece of shit is half my size. Yet he’s been beating the shit out of Kamiko.

From the posts in the forum, Kamiko found herself in this situation because her uncle sold her off. She was living in New York with her family until her parents were killed in a shooting at the restaurant her father and uncle owned.

The uncle didn’t want to be bothered and sold her to this asshole. She popped on the forum, asking for help. There was something about her posts that drew my attention.

Gio liked her right away. I’ve been monitoring her posts since. This trip has been the perfect opportunity, Kamiko was able to get away once they arrived. They’re here in Japan for a wedding that’s not going to happen.

I shrug off my trench coat and allow it to fall to the ground, revealing the twin axes harnessed to my back. Pulling them, I rotate them in my hands before me, then plunge the one in my right hand into his shoulder, pulling him back to me.

I silence his scream with my other blade across his throat. Making quick work of severing his head from his body, I stuff it into the bag I have across my chest.

That didn’t take much. I shrug, turn, grab my trench, and head back the way I came. I’m jogging down the stairs when a scream pierces the air. I smile to myself and pat the bag with the head inside.

“Someone just found the rest of you, asshole.”

“I’m here for Kamiko.”

“Oh, you big guy,” the buck-toothed woman says from behind the counter and shakes her head. “No Kamiko here.”

I purse my lips. I know she’s here. This is where I sent her.

“Tell her J the Curator is here for her.”

She turns and hurries through the door behind her. When she returns, she has a girl who could pass for her daughter with her. No chin, dark mousy hair, and unhealthy-looking skin. She smiles, revealing the same bucked-tooth smile.

“No Kamiko, but I have Misaki. She my daughter. You handsome, take her.”

I snort. “Give Kamiko this,” I say, handing over the bag. “Don’t open it. It’s hers.”

Misaki takes the bag and rushes back the way they came. I’m starting to grow impatient. I need to board the plane to get to Russia. Alyona’s husband is on a business trip. I have three days to get her out. She’s the one Gio needs.

If Kamiko keeps playing games, I’ll leave her. She’s no longer in danger, she’s just without resources. As I have the thought, a girl with dark hair and blue eyes comes running out to fling herself around me.

She pulls away quickly and clutches the bag I sent to her to her chest. I look her over. Her left eye has fading bruising around it and her lip looks like it’s healing from being busted pretty badly.

“Thank you. I am ready. I will do whatever it is you need.”

I nod. Once healed up, she’s going to be very pretty. Her eyes are definitely distracting. Gio will be happy with this one.

I gesture for her to follow me. She hasn’t released her hold on the bag yet. I’ll give her time. The thick lining inside will hold up for a while more before the bag is saturated in blood.

She’ll have to hand it over before we board our plane. For now, she can bask in her new security.

CHAPTER 26

Gio

A year later…

Sweat drips down my face and back. My heart is pounding as I have a tight grip on Ny’s ass as I pound into her pussy. It’s been too long since I last had her in my arms.

“Fuck, I’ve missed your ass so much,” I groan as I spill inside her for the fourth time since I’ve been here.
