CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 88. His own darkness
EricaI could feel eyes on me from all around the room. Even when they weren’t looking, it felt like their eyes were stripping me off the non existent dress I was wearing. But then slowly that awareness disappeared with his heavy, warm hand at my back. His big palm was splayed across my naked back and all my senses were focused on that simple touch. I also noticed how men looked at me with blatant curious gazes mixed with lust but soon that would turn into disregard when those eyes would see the man standing beside me. As if they couldn’t insult him by looking at me for too long and yet there was interest in the quiet murmurs that followed us.I realised Antonio wasn’t lying when he had said that no one would dare to touch me with him by my side and this in itself felt like a power someone handed to me. I wasn’t a woman who got easily impressed but in this instance I felt a certain amount of appeal that this man held enough power that I could’ve been standing here in a set of lingerie
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 89. Fine. I was jealous.
EricaI took a sip of my drink, marvelling at the soothing burn of the scotch. I didn't say anything as I regarded the woman standing in front of me. With a huff, that wasn’t audible, but delicate like her, she said, “I don't know who you are and why you’re here with him. Maybe, you're a new thing he is interested in at the moment but..” Stepping closer, she said, “Don't entertain any idea of being any longer at his side. That spot is reserved for me.”“And yet you're not the one standing by his side tonight.” I remarked.Her nostrils flared. She smiled and said, “From where I’m standing, it isn't you either.” I followed her gaze and sure enough there was another woman now talking to him, touching his arm like a lost lover. “Do you know he has particular tastes?” Nicole’s voice was soft as she said that. “He likes his woman to submit to him in every way possible.”I snorted. “Yeah. And he can obviously have those.” I purposely looked down at her even though she was taller than me. She
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 90. The enemy of my enemy
Erica“Jeremiah Sokolov.” He introduced himself in his deep voice with a hint of accent that wasn’t there before.But it was not needed as his last name already registered in my mind and I stared at him for a moment, before stating. “You are a Russian.”He smiled, like he was proud of being recognised as one. “Please to meet you.”“Do these people know you are here? Because if you are Russian and you are in this party you can’t be an ordinary Russian. You must be someone important.”“I am starting to see why he brought you with him tonight.” He murmured, his grey eyes taking me in as if seeing me for the first time. “But to answer your questions. Yes, the hosts know I’m here. They invited me. And,” he leaned closer and whispered, “I am the head of the Sokolov family. The bratva.” If it was even possible his voice dropped even further to a caress as he said, “That makes me his enemy and you know what they say about the enemy of my enemy.”“A friend.” I finished on a whisper as a slithe
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 91. The astounding relief
Erica“Excuse me, this room is occupied.” I said, wanting him to leave, hoping that he had mistakenly entered but I knew it wasn’t a mistake. I should've listened to what my instincts were telling me. I shouldn't have come here. And when I made the mistake of following Jeremiah, I should've returned back immediately.The man entered further into the room. I couldn't see his face but I knew he was smiling. I shifted to the side, putting the sofa between him and myself. “The party is down the hall.”He shook his head as he kept coming toward me. With a nervous flutter, I rounded the sofa. He chuckled and I could hear the chill behind it. He said, “I am not here to attend the party, sweetheart. I am here for you.”I didn't stop to think as I ran.But he was fast. His hand wrapped around my hair as he pulled me back and in the next instant he snatched the mask off my face. “Ahh... Look at all that flawless face and body, not a mark in sight. You haven't been suffering like he said you wil
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 92. Do you care for her?
Antonio(Fifteen minutes ago)Nicole was taking advantage of the party going around us as she clung to me. Her hand rested on my arm where Erica’s was not long ago. The last time I saw her she was walking toward the bar with Yuri. Her head held high and her shoulders back as if she was the guest of honor and people were here to look at her. Because that’s what was happening. I had noticed how men had turned to look at her. I didn’t want to admit it but now I hated having made her wear that dress. She was too tempting in it with her curves and legs that seemed to go on forever in those high heels.Now as I stood among a group of men with Nicole by my side all I wanted to do was go to the bar myself and slip my fingers around Erica’s neck. To remind her that she was mine and yes to get her where she belonged, in the cage of my arms. But the man standing in front of me was the president himself and with him was his son whose birthday was being celebrated tonight. So as much as I wanted t
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 93. You can't kill him
AntonioAs soon as I was out of the room, I slipped my hand under my suit jacket to pull out the gûn. My fingers clenched around the metal and as much as I’d have liked the feel of my knife, there was no guarantee that I’d have my target at close range.I heard Ephraim’s slow measured footsteps behind me but I didn’t care about being silent. Let that Russian bastàrd know I’m coming for him. Because I’m going to kîll him. And I won’t even savor the kîll with the rage I was feeling.I heard the voices at the hand of the hallway and felt ready to shoot at a moment’s notice before I pushed the door open, entering the small sitting room with one single minded focus, to kill the fucker. And in that moment a small figure came running right at me, catching me off guard. Not for long though as my arm closed around her when I felt her small body against mine and the scent of daffodils registered.I looked down, for a moment not looking at the men in the room. She lifted her head and looked at m
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 94. You should punish me
EricaThe silence in the car was thick, crushing and loud. UnbearableIt pressed from all the sides around me as I looked at him. Antonio was sitting across from me, his fingers tapping on his thigh in the familiar, maddening rhythm. His jaw was set, dark hair in disarray and top two buttons of his shirt undone with his tie loose around his neck. He looked unruly and wild. A predator trying to control his own instinct of going for the kill. I had felt this way since he entered that sitting room and more so when he didn’t get to kill Jeremiah.My mind went back to the masked man, how he had crowded me, cornered me and overpowered me. If Jeremiah hadn’t interrupted. If Antonio hadn’t come... I shook the thoughts away. And looked at him because oddly it felt important to look at him. I was many things right now, but mostly I was the one where I wanted him to look back at me with his golden eyes. To let me see those unusual eyes. I didn’t know why I wanted that... I just...I could still
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 95. Doesn't feel like punishment
EricaAntonio took me straight to the bedroom and put me down to stand on my own feet. I wavered a little and his palm spread across my back to hold me. I looked up at him. Once again marveling at the fact how big and tall he was. He stepped back when it became clear that I wasn’t going to fall flat on my face and ordered, “Strip. By the time I come back I want you naked and bend over on that ottoman.”I followed his finger and saw a silk upholstered ottoman near the fireplace. When I turned to him, he said, “Don’t make me repeat myself and don’t test me, Erica, you’re already in too much trouble.”I licked my lips, opened my mouth but I didn’t know what to say. And he didn’t wait as he turned around and left me there to follow his orders.I looked back at the sofa and recalled his demands. Nakéd and bent over that piece of furniture. I guessed he wanted to spank me. And awareness slithered down my spine, along with a warm frisson of arousal in my blood. I was a lost cause, damaged be
