She was so fucking tight, so fucking wet, and so fucking perfect.
I kissed her again, savoring the silky feel of my mouth claiming what was mine. Before resting my forehead on hers, thrusting a little faster.
A little deeper.
A little harder.
Her back arched off the bed in a frenzy from the pain and pleasure of it all. It didn’t take long until she started matching my thrusts, grinding her hips with mine. Her legs opening wider for me.
She didn’t say anything, just lifted her hips. Making a silent plea to take it further. Positioning my knee higher, her leg inclined with mine. Her breathing elevated, and I knew I was hitting her g-spot better from that angle. I grabbed the back of her neck to keep our eyes locked. My forehead hovered above hers as we caught our breaths, trying to find a unified rhythm. I once again brought her lips to meet mine. Pushing my tongue in, claiming every last goddamn inch of her.
My movements became harder and rougher, her body responding to everything I was giving her.
Everything I was taking…
Her eyes dilated in pleasure, but also in pain. I immediately lapped at her breasts unable to get enough of her and wanting to take her mind off the sting so she could focus on the ecstasy. Moving back up to her face, our mouths were now parted as we both panted profusely, unable to control the movements of our bodies.
“Oh, God… I’m going… I think I’m going to come…”
I thrust faster, moving my fingers hastily.
“Yes… Yes…” she breathed out, climaxing all down my shaft, taking me right over the edge with her.
I came so fucking hard inside her, kissing her passionately and holding her tighter till there was nothing left inside of me.
We stayed like that for I don’t know how long. Enjoying the feel of our skin on skin contact for the first time. I kissed all around her face, her neck, back up to her face again.
Until she said for the first time…
“Happy birthday, Adrian Drake. I love you.”
And I wished…
I could have said it back to her.
Thirty
Adrian
Now
They say when two people’s souls are connected, they can feel each other from across the world. Which was the only way I could explain what happened next.
I woke up from a dead sleep. I was fucking exhausted, and it finally caught up with me. I shot straight up out of bed, grabbing my chest like I couldn’t breathe. It was on fire, burning my lungs. I gasped for air that was unavailable for the taking until I realized why my heart felt like it was being strangled in the first place.
Through a panicked ridden stare, my eyes shifted beside me, searching for the woman who wasn’t there. With what could only be described as death, my chest seized, knowing right then and there…
I wasn’t going to find her in this hotel suite.
Like a bolt of lightning, my body sprang into action. Feeding off pure adrenaline, I hauled ass through that suite as if I was a bat flying out of hell. As soon as I tore through the doorframe of Cade’s bedroom and found him sleeping, I didn’t think twice about waking his ass up. Gripping onto the front of his shirt, I threw him up against the wall beside his bed.
“Where the fuck is she?!”
“Adrian! What the fu—”
I slammed him into the wall. “Where is she?!”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
Despite not wanting to, I let him go. I could see it in his eyes, he was genuinely confused.
“You need to calm the fuck down! Stop seeing me like I’m the fucking bad guy, Adrian! We’re on the same side!”
“Paige is gone.”
Three words.
Three fucking words were all it took for my brother to show fear.
“How do know she’s not at the gym or something?”
“She wouldn’t have left me.” Not beating around the bush, I questioned, “Have you talked to your wife?”
Through a conflicted, tormented expressed, Cade confirmed, “No.”
“Fuck!” I seethed, grabbing onto the lamp on the nightstand before I chuckled it across the room.
Glass shattered to the floor, piling at our feet.
“I know how this looks, Adrian…”
“If you did, you wouldn’t have the balls to just stand there, Cade.”
“Stop threatening me,” he ordered, looking around the room as if it held all the answers. “I don’t know where my wife or Paige is, okay? But what I do know is that wherever they are, they’re probably together. Alright?”
I listened intently. He was right.
“Hayley’s a victim in this.” He stepped into my face, standing tall. “I don’t know what the fuck is happening right now or how we got pulled into this nightmare. All I know, is that we need to find them. Right the fuck now. This obviously goes deeper than what we could have imagined. We need to work together to get them back.”
