…THEN…
“Kage…”
His eyes are smoldering, and with every goddamn bone in my body, I am praying that it is from his arousal, yet he is nothing but raging mad.
“Get out!”
“Kage…” With his grip tightening around my wrists, he is pushing me down the stairs. “Kage, please wait! I can explain.”
His voice grows louder as he bursts out in a rumble of laughter, “Please tell me how you can explain my goddamn brother all over you?”
“Kage…” The tears rolling like thundering clouds down my face, “He caught me by surprise. I promise you nothing happened.”
For a fraction of a second, his breathing stops, and he spits out in disgust, “The same way that Slater was feeling you up in the kitchen?”
“How…”
He brings the tips of his finger to my lips, “How? Is that what you want to know?” Pushing me up against the very next wall presenting itself, he continues to pin my hands above my head, “Is this the way you like it?”
“Kage, please…”
Stepping through the dining room, he clears the table of its very contents… Then he pushes me down onto the cold surface, “Please? Were you not just begging Niko to do the very same?”
“Kage…”
“No, Avyanna…” Crawling his way up my body, his lips lock with mine. “You fucking betrayed me,” with each breath raging against my mouth, “What did I tell you about fucking around with my brothers?”
“Kage…” My voice turning to a whimper. “Please, I am sorry.”
“Not as sorry as what you are going to be,” his growls ripple to every inch of every crack and crevice.
“What… Are…”
He does not give me the simple pleasure, yet he brings his hands sliding up my thigh, “You fucked up, princess.” With his fingers drawing circles against my flesh, he edges to the inches of red lace. Then tangling his way between the fabric of my panties and heated skin, he brings his lips to the tip of my ear, “You just lost the only man that will ever satisfy you.”
“Kage…”
“No, Avyanna…” He slides his thumb over the button of my shorts, and with one mere flick, he pops it open. “I am going to destroy you before you leave this room.”
“Kage, please…”
He swallows the words before they even spill from my lips. As he takes my mouth by force, he plunders his tongue through my seams. Delving inside, he continues to rage the battle. With each stroke, he sends ripples over my skin, only but sparking his very own arousal building to torment against the strain of his skinny jeans.
“Kage…” Beyond what I can even restrain myself, my moans are nothing but a symphony to his ears.
But as he feels my body surrender, he pulls his hungry lips away, “Do you really think I am going to give you all that you want?” He knots his hands in the edges of my shirt and in almost near slow motion, he raises it over my head.
“Kage, what are you…”
“What am I doing?” His voice taunting. “I am going to destroy you, Avyanna. Once I am done, you will never be able to have another man.”
With his eyes burning full of heated passion, he lays his lips against the bare of my neck. Leaving my skin throbbing as he lays a path of tormented kisses down to my cleavage.
But as I brace myself for the anticipation of his touch…
He stops…
I arch my back with nothing but begging…
“Now, seriously Avyanna? Do you think that I am going to give you what you want?”
Crawling his way down my body, he kisses my belly…
His tongue trailing…
Hands clenching into my thighs, his breath lingers at the elastic of my panties, “Believe me that I want nothing more than to give you everything that you want, but the question is what do you deserve?” Nipping at the red lace, he looks up to meet my gaze, “What do you think you deserve, Avyanna?”
“You, Kage…”
“Then why are you fucking around with my brothers?”
“I am sorry, Kage. It was a mistake.”
“Do you want to know what a mistake is?”
He does not allow me to say a single word, instead, he claims my lips in his passionate embrace. Savouring every taste, he takes his time to devour me in slow torment. Crucifying me with his tongue, he punishes me for the only mistake I have ever made…
Fucking around with his brothers…
Pulling away, he nips at my lip, leaving me utterly breathless, with my body nothing but wanting. With his eyes piercing through to the depths of my soul, I see a wicked grin appear on his pained face, “The only mistake is your failure to heed my warning.” In near almost an instant, he slides off my body. “Get the fuck out!” And with one glance over his shoulder as he exits the room, he leaves me with a final warning, “Do not think that this is over.”
…NOW…
His eyes are piercing through my soul, just like they had all those years ago. But it is not so much them that has me rendered completely and utterly motionless, it is his goddamn hands that are even more tantalizing than I can recall.
And as I wait in breathless anticipation to rip each and every goddamn button open, there is a voice coming from over his shoulders…
He only but growls with dissatisfaction, “Can you not see that I am fucking busy?”
“Busy with some goddamn whore again,” the voice only but rumbles in return.
But then I see that all-too-familiar grin appear at the corner of those lips, “You will not say that if you knew what I was about to sink my teeth into.”
“Bro, I am sure if you are having her, then I have had her before.”
“Oh, I bet you have…” He bursts out in a wicked laughter.
“Then let us see…” There is nothing but a gasp that swallows his air, “Fuck, Avy, is that you?”
Trying my damn hardest to not drop my jaw at a man that has only but perfected with the years, I cannot help but smile, “Hello, Slater.”
But next, I hear the door burst wide open, “What the fuck are you two doing out here? Sharing girls again?”
Slater snaps his neck in the direction of the door behind him, “You will never guess what Kage found.”
“Let me guess…” I watch as Kage is pulled back, making way for the face of another. “Well, well, well. Look what we have here. When did you get back into town, Anna?”
Staring at his parted lips, I can only mumble, “Hi, Niko.”
Niko steps forward and locks his arms around my neck, pulling me towards him, not giving a fuck, he kisses me with nothing but abandon.
“Get your fucking mouth off her,” I feel as Kage rips him away. “Don’t start your shit. This one is off-limits.”
Running my fingers over my swollen lips, they tremble, “That is off-limits to you too, Kage.” I send him a warning, “I am here with someone else.”
“That pretty little boy that cannot keep his paws off you?” I hear as Niko mocks me with his laughter.
Then Slater ever so casually adds, “And the emphasis is on boy.”
Yet, from the corner of my eye, I see that anger start to rage within Kage, “Yes, Avyanna, best you remember who it is that you belong to.”
“Not to the three of you,” I push my body up against Kage, shoving my way past Niko, and walking smack-bang into Slater. “Get the fuck out of my way. I don’t have time for your pissing contest. I do not belong to any of you.”
Kage, grabbing onto my wrist, spins me around, “We will see about that. Why do you think you are back in town?”
Our eyes lock, not breaking the intense stare of his gaze, I snap, “Definitely not for you.”
“That is what you think, Avyanna. Now, you can run along to your little toy boy but I promise you that you will be back.”
“We will see about that, won’t we Kage,” finally freeing myself from his ever-tightening grip, I leap for the door.
As I finally find my unsteady legs stumbling down the corridor, I reach the open door of the bathroom, and sigh in relief, “Fuck.”
With my breathing still erratic, and my heart near thumping from my chest, the words of Kage come back to haunt… “Why do you think you are back in town?”
What the fuck is he talking about?
…KAGE POV…Moving with pure elegance, I watch her sway those goddamn hips with utmost tormented purpose. Flicking them from side to side, that skirt flares just enough to give me a full view of her tight ass. Every emotion that was ever filled with rage, is set on fire…That fire that once burned for her ignites right the fuck alight.And in a mere than the blink of an eye, my only desire is to taste Avyanna Tate…It takes me less than two strides, and I burst through the back door only to catch a glimpse of her as she disappears around the corner. With a nothing but smirk and the hint of a growl, I adjust my growing erection, “Not so fast, my little wolf.” Then from underneath my breath, I whisper, “I am not done with you yet.”But as I take that corner, sneaking up from the side, I see her toy boy pushing his way through the door, short on the heels of my prize, into the lady’s bathroom.Picking up the pace, I slip in behind just as the door is about to close, then with nothing but
…NIKO POV…“You still believe that she belongs to you? To you and you alone?”I watch Kage as his eyes grow wide with rage, “You are damn fucking right about that. Now, do I need to repeat myself?”I cannot help but spit back at him in utter fury, “If you have not noticed, she is with someone else.”“And if you have forgotten, she is back in town because I wanted her to be here.”The mere thought of the lengths this man would go to get what he wants sets every emotion racing. He was the one that did everything in his power to get Anna out of town, and now, after all these years, he wants her back.Yes, Kage has come under fire for not having marked Anna when he had the chance, but what he has done now…It is fucking insane.Yet, he would be wise to remember that our dear Anna does not like to be told what to do and let alone be pushed into a corner.So, as I slowly rise from my chair, I give Kage a once-over, “You are playing a dangerous game. You think you lost her ten years ago, wai
…SLATER POV…Staring at Kage, still burning white-hot with fury, it brings back all those nights. Nights when I was so angry at him, and myself for the part we both played in chasing Avy away. The plan never was to get her to leave town, we were trying to teach her a lesson for playing us all.But Kage had a temper, and he felt betrayed.There was no way that he was going to let Avy make him look like a fool. So he pushed her as far as he could, so far that she eventually left.And it broke me.It splintered my heart into so many goddamn pieces, I could not find anything that would put it back together again.But now, she is back.And all those feelings, those emotions, they have been pulled from the grave that has been my heart.I know I should not.But I feel alive again for the first time in years.Though this thing with Kage and Niko, I need them to stop because if they don’t, it will push Avy away again. Yes, I am the last one that approves of what Kage did to get her here, but s
If my life was not a mess before, then it is now nothing but a fuck up. I have not been in this town for a goddamn hour and I have had all three Xavier brothers doing what they do best…Claiming what they think is theirs.And did I stop them?Not the least fucking bit.I need to get as far away from the three of them, but what my head tells me is not what my body wants. My body has done nothing but betray me with each encounter I have had. It seems that not only did these boys do some growing up, but the addiction they bring, has me craving them stronger than any drug.Stronger than ever before.With each whispered breath, they have by their heated touch set my body completely alight. I am so near damn close to exploding, if one of them edges their way over my lace panties, I might just erupt.Standing here with Slater as he pulls me back closer to him, there is nothing that I want more than to give in. Seeing him bulging in those skinny jeans, has me wanting the one thing that I cann
The very words send a chill to my spine.How can my father possibly be in trouble with the Xavier brothers?What I have learned only but an hour ago from Slater is that they own this pub. But my father is not a drinker and even less is my mother. The possibility of them causing trouble here is more like slim to nothing. So how has my father gotten himself mixed up with the brothers?Do I even want to know?Guess I will have to find out.So very reluctantly and shit scared to learn the truth, I push Olivia for the answers, “How is dad mixed up with the Xavier brothers?She only but stares at me, and from the terrified look on her face, she is not willing to go into detail. Judging from her reluctance, it must be bad.But still…How is the Xavier brother involved in this?I need to know what the fuck is going on here.“Olivia, if this is the reason you dragged my ass back home, then at least give me a fucking explanation.”“It… was…” I watch as she hesitates. Something has her spooked,
…KAGE POV…The way she is making my cock feel as she pouts those lips in utter frustration makes me want to pin her to that fucking couch and let my hands explore every inch of her body. The mere thought of how they will feel wrapped around my head is driving me crazy. The only desire consuming me is to taste every curve that is Avyanna Tate.I am trying to remain the level-headed businessman that I should be, but trying to remember the feeling of her bare naked skin far out ways any business I feel like discussing. The only thing that should be moving is our lips in perfect precision, and our bodies falling in harmony as I take her to the edge and drop her down into a pool of ecstasy.To think there was a time that I hated this woman, and now all I can think of is having her back between my sheets. Seeing that wet…“Wipe that stupid grin off your face and tell me what you want, Kage.”What do I want?You… Naked… Spread open… On that table…“Kage!”“Patience, Avyanna, we have all day.
“Is that a yes, Avyanna?”I watch him as the impatience seems to grow with each ticking second. This Kage is a far cry from the one I knew ten years ago. He is determined to get what it is that he wants. But my question begs, what is it exactly that he is trying to achieve with this seemingly innocent business proposal?One thing that will never change about this man…You cannot trust him.“What happens if I say no?”For a brief moment, I see his eyes grow wider than my fucking hoop earrings. Something gives me the idea that he believes that I will just give in without any question. I mean, how bad can my dad’s debt be?“How much does my dad owe you?”Throwing his head back, he bursts out in a fit of laughter again, “That little modeling salary of yours will not even make a dent in it.”“How much, Kage?”Standing from the couch, he walks over to his desk and continues to retrieve a blue folder. Then, as he comes back to take his seat again, he slowly slides it over to me. With rather
…KAGE POV…“Kage, please stop. Let him go.”I hear Avyanna’s voice echo over my shoulder. Pleading and begging, but what she is saying, I really do not know. She could be declaring her undying love, and I would not give a shit right now. My only purpose is to teach this fucking pig some manners.But the fool is looking up at me with a goddamn smirk on that pretty-boy face. Not only does it infuriate me, but that rage within me only grows. With my fist twisting firmly into his fake designer shirt, my voice rumbles like growing thunder, “You DO NOT touch Avyanna like that.”With his voice taunting, he dares to spit in mocking laughter, “Who the fuck do you think you are?”“I already told you, but it seems that you are so goddam thick that I am going to have to show you.”I show for Slater and Niko to grab him by the arms and lift him from the filthy pavement. Then, just as I am about to ball my hand into a fist, I feel Avyanna pulling me back, “Please, Kage. I told you I will do it.”I
