Bane watched the sleeping Emma. She looked every bit an angel as she lay naked in his arms with her hair billowing in all directions and a serene look on her face. He loved these moments when he could relax and let go of all the masks he wore and all the pretence. He was allowed to adore his angel without limitations. Bane tried not to indulge in moments like these too often. He found that for each time the thought of letting her go was becoming more painful. But tonight, he needed it. He needed to know that she was safe. Bane played with the thought of keeping her with him forever. He could keep her safe, he could make sure she had everything she ever wanted. But she deserved more. She deserved to be with someone she loved, to be happy. If he was less of a bastard, he would have let her go already. But he wanted to keep her, for just a little longer, he thought and eased a strand of her hair from her face. His phone on the nightstand buzzed and he looked down at Emma. She was still s

** TRIGGER WARNING** This chapter will contain discussions about SA and self-harm. Please be kind to yourself if these things trigger you, and move on to the next chapter. Bane had a hard time believing that Emma felt safe with him. From his point of view, he was the one that introduced danger into her life. She should be terrified around him, even if she wasn’t afraid of him as a person. “It’s because of my mother,” Bane told her. He froze, he hadn’t meant to say that. He didn’t talk about his mother, not even with Jax. “Because of how she died?” Emma asked. “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t poke at old wounds,” she then said. “It’s okay, angel,” he told her. He picked up her hand that was on his chest and kissed it. He found himself wanting to talk to her about his mother. “She was so different from everyone else in my life when I grew up. My mother was sweet and kind, and she would almost always laugh. She always had time for me and Jax and she would take us on picnics in the garden and

Emma sat in the backseat of the car and could barely keep her eyes open. Last night hadn’t given much room for sleep. But Emma wouldn’t have traded it for all the sleep in the world. The moments she and Bane had shared after he had taken care of James had been profound in a way that Emma never had experienced. It felt like they had connected and forged a bond. Emma didn’t want to delude herself by thinking it was love. That was just her wishful thinking. But it was definitely a strong friendship.“Are you okay, Miss E?” Luke asked from the front seat.“I’m fine, Luke. Just a little tired,” she told him.“Did the boss keep you awake?” Carlos asked.“Carlos! You keep your mind on the road, mister,” Emma huffed. The two men laughed and looked back at her through the rearview mirror. “I would have suggested you sleep a little, but we will be there in two minutes,” Luke then said.“I’ll be fine, but thank you.”Simon had his offices on the twenty-fourth floor. It was the one below the top

A week later and Emma still hadn’t talked to Bane about selling her house. Every time she was about to, she found a reason not to. She had been down to the kitchen to get lunch for her and Bane. Sometimes she liked to do it herself instead of letting one of the maids do it. As she walked back into Bane’s office with a tray, he looked up and gave her one of his half smiles.“Come here, angel. I have something we need to talk about,” he said, holding out his hand. Emma put the tray down and rounded the desk, and let him pull her down onto his lap. “It sounds serious.”“It’s nothing bad. Do you remember the first night we met?” he asked.“It’s hard to forget,” Emma told him with a smile. “I guess you are right. Do you remember when we were talking in my office, you asked what it meant to be my pet, if you would have to sleep in a cage?” Emma laughed at the memory. She had been really worried over that.“I remember.”“I told you that you wouldn’t have to, but I also said that the idea o

Emma swallowed hard before trying to give him an innocent smile.“Nothing,” she said.“Nothing? They look like panties,” Bane told her, strolling towards the bed. Emma placed her phone on the nightstand.“They’re not really panties,” she tried to object as she watched him.“Are you lying to me, angel?”“No, I promise Bane, they aren’t really panties,” Emma told him. She knew she would be in worse trouble if she was caught in a lie.“Mhm. Show me how they’re not panties,” he told her. Emma felt her breathing pickup, and she felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. She slowly turned to face Bane as he stood at the bottom corner of the bed. She looked at him and slowly spread her legs wide. Bane gave her a surprised look, and then his focus shifted as his eyes wandered down over her body to her exposed pussy. Emma saw the hunger in his eyes and she felt her body respond like he had been running his hands all over it. “I see what you mean,” Bane said with a nod. “But I told you to be na

“Not one like that,” she answered, not taking her eyes off the black toy. “So what kind of vibrator have you used?” Emma could hear the amusement in Bane’s voice as he bent down and licked around one of her nipples and then tugged on it with his teeth. She let out a moan and lost focus for a moment.“An egg,” she then confessed.“Did you enjoy it?”“Yes,” she said, and felt herself blush. It was followed by a light chuckle from Bane. “Then you vill love this,” he told her, and Emma heard a light buzzing sound as he turned the vibrator on. He put the tip against Emma’s skin, just below her bellybutton, and a shiver went through her as the soft vibrations travelled over her skin. “Just relax,” Bane told her and bent down and kissed her. He continued kissing her as he dragged the vibrator lower, down over her mound and onto her thighs, bypassing her pussy. One of Emma’s hands was holding on to Bane’s muscular shoulder to anchor her. The other one took a hold of his hand holding the toy
The devil you know 69, The next project
Having his angel sprawled out over him, naked and asleep, was one of the most relaxing things Bane knew. He was aware it was early in the afternoon and he still had work to do. He had walked into the bedroom expecting a quick session in bed and then back to work. But the temptation to punish his angel had proven too big. He let his fingers travel up and down Emma’s spine. He enjoyed the feeling of the goosebumps he caused. Bane was also battling with his feelings about Emma looking for an apartment. She had told him she wasn’t planning to move there right away. But it still would be a symbol of the fact that she wouldn’t be with him forever. Of course, he knew this. He was planning for it. But he still didn’t like it when he was forced to face it. It was impressive that his angel had come to a point where she could let go of her past and start looking forward. But it also made him feel something that wasn’t enjoyable, a feeling he wasn’t used to. After analysing it for a while, Bane r
The devil you know 70, His pet
Emma was soaking in the tub, as she always did before getting ready to go to the club with Bane. A relaxing bath set her in the right mood to spend the night with all the loud music and the crowd of people. She loved watching the city as dusk settled in over it and it transformed from a normal city to an amazing display of coloured lights. Her serene little bubble was punctured by Bane entering the bedroom. Emma didn’t need to see him to know that it was Bane that had opened the door or that he was in a bad mood. The sound of the door hitting the armchair next to it with a loud thud was all she needed. No one else would dare open a door to his room without knocking or with so much force. And he knew she was in the tub relaxing, he would never have disturbed her if he wasn’t in enough of a bad mood for his irritation to make him forgetful. Emma wrapped herself in a towel and walked into the bedroom. Sure enough, Bane was walking back and forth, looking like a thundercloud. He looked up
