“He’s currently occupying one of their torture rooms. He’s strapped to a chair, naked. He’s pissed himself and he’s crying,” Kane smiled. He tilted my chin so I looked in his eyes. “I have a surprise for you later.”
“I’ve had enough surprises to last me a while. I think I’ll stay right here with you.” I leaned up and planted a kiss on his soft lips, pressing my boobs to his bare chest. My nipples were hard and wanting his attention, which he noticed immediately. When our lips parted, he dipped his head and took one into his mouth, swirling his tongue on it.
“You’re going to like this, sweetheart. It’s going to be healing for you. I promise.” His fingers slipped below the sheet, trailing down my naked body to my thighs. “You’re safe now, baby. Never letting you leave me.”
I moaned as he slowly pushed his fingers into me. I parted my thighs because I needed him so badly. His fingers pushed in and out as his thumb caressed my clit.
“Since when are you such a caveman?” I asked as he picked up his pace.
“Since I realized how much I fucking need you. How much I care about you. And I’m never letting you out of my sight.” He kissed me with force, his fingers stroking me, creating that familiar warmth that spread through my body. I swear he knew just how to touch me to make me come alive. To make me feel wanted in a way that no one else ever had.
And no one else ever would.
“Kane,” I breathed, unable to think of the proper response to his possessive words.
“Come for me, sweetheart. Come all over my fingers like a good fucking girl.” His breathing picked up as he continued to rub my clit, sending me over the edge with his words.
I hadn’t realized how much I loved praise until it was his I was seeking.
He smiled down at me as I came back to earth.
“Feel this,” he said as he took my hand and placed it on his chest. Both of our hearts were pounding. “This is what you do to me. And I won’t let anyone stand in my way of having you. Not anymore.”
He kissed me furiously until we were both breathless. He pulled back, looking into my eyes and igniting a fire within me.
“Maybe you should see a doctor,” I whispered.
“Don’t try to turn what I said into a joke because you don’t want to believe it. I’ve had a lot of time to think about this, and then you were taken right in front of me. Just…don’t.” He leaned back and looked at the ceiling, clenching his jaw.
“Hey,” I said as I got in his face. “I know it’s not a joke. I care about you too, Kane. Your family and my brother are the only people I’ve ever cared about.” I ran my hand up his sculpted abs to his chest, making lazy circles on his golden skin.
“I don’t just care about you. I love you. I’m fucking wrecked about what happened to you.”
Love…Kanelovedme.
With what we’d been through over the last month, the way our relationship shifted, I knew I loved him too.
“I’m fine though.” Sort of the truth.
“I mean before. I can’t ever make it up to you, but I can promise you something. You will never do another thing you don’t explicitly want. Whatever it is, it’s your decision.” He spoke with so much conviction and emotion, my heart wanted to burst.
“Kane, I–”
He put his lips to mine lightly, silencing my words.
“Shhh, you don’t have to say anything right now. I just wanted you to know how I feel. No bullshit, no fake girlfriends, no deals or bets. I never want you to doubt that I care about you, that I want you, and that I love you. Forever.”
Forever is…a long time. And this was a lot to take in after the last few weeks. My head was a mess–and still throbbing–so I did the only thing I could do. I kissed him and rested my head on his chest, because he was the only person I’d ever had in my life that made me feel safe and loved–even if he was an asshole sometimes.
“Are you ready for your surprise?”
Chapter 46
Kane
“Whatdoyouthink?”I asked proudly, my hands on her arms to remind her that she wasn’t alone in this.
Dani’s eyes widened as she looked at the piece of shit strapped to a chair. After she got dressed in a t-shirt and a pair of shorts–thanks to Emilia she was able to do this in something other than her gown from the night before–I brought her to see Arnold. We were in the torture room where he was a littletied up.
