Under His Protection Page 2

  This is one of these times.

  I fuck her as hard as I can, beads of sweat forming on my forehead. My hips move as if I’m possessed, and I can’t even feel anything. I’m instinct, raw adrenaline. I’m everything a man’s supposed to be, and then some more.

  She knows it too.

  I can tell by the way she’s moaning.

  “Come for me,” I whisper into her ear, my lips moving slowly as they brush against her skin. “Do it,” I insist, and I feel her pussy becoming even tighter around my shaft. That makes me go even harder, and it doesn’t take long for her moans to turn into screams of pure delight.

  Her inner walls become as tight as a vise around my cock, and this time I can’t resist it. I lay my forehead on her shoulder and groan, ecstasy taking over me. My cock twitches inside her pussy, and I feel fire climbing up my shaft.

  Before I even know what’s happening, she pushes me back just as I’m about to come. She goes down on her knees in front of me and dives into me, opening her mouth and taking my ready-to-explode cock inside her mouth.

  I come inside her mouth, resting my hands on top of her head and breathing so hard I think my lungs will collapse.

  “Fuck,” I groan as I fill up her mouth. She doesn’t move as I finish coming, and I can’t help but smile as I see beads of cum dripping down her lips.

  “That was…I don’t even know how to describe,” she whispers, looking up at me and wiping her lips with the back of her hand.

  “No need for descriptions,” I tell her, that devilish grin still on my lips. “What you did just now was all I needed.”

  “I could go on forever,” she tells as she goes up to her feet.

  “Maybe I could too,” I chuckle.

  “That was fucking incredible, sweetheart.” I helped her from her knees. Her skin was dewy with afterglow. Her eyes were still hazed with lust. I knew she wasn’t ready to stop. I just unleashed something primal in both of us.

  I traced my thumb along her jaw. “But I have a situation to deal with.” I squeezed her heart-shaped ass with a growl.

  She pouted, pressing her pillowy lips forward. I was tempted to wipe that look off her face a second time, but Don Lorenzo would be here any second. I had already risked an awkward run-in with him, fucking her the way I had. I’d lost my damn mind when I was buried inside her.

  She was insatiable. Too bad there wasn’t more time.

  Something about the girl was already under my skin. There was something sinfully adorable and seductive about her. That made for a dangerous combination.

  When had I ever let a woman derail me? I didn’t have the luxury of time. I never had. SEALs didn’t live normal lives. Normal didn’t exist in my world. This was my kind of normal. I had a job to do.

  I fastened my belt and zipped my pants just in time.

  We heard the slam of a car door outside and Jessica gasped. I felt an instinctiveness to protect her kick in.

  “Don’t say anything,” I warned her. “And don’t stare at him. No matter what.”

  “Why?” she asked quietly.

  I exhaled. “Don doesn’t like it when people stare. Best not to get on his bad side. Trust me.”

  She moved behind me and I wrapped a hand against her waist. Her body was warm and soft. My fingers dug into her flesh and she whimpered.

  “I think I’m scared.” She tried to take a step backward.

  I shook my head. “I’ve got you. I’m not going to let anything happen to you. I told you you’re safer with me than you are out there.” I wasn’t about to let her take her chances on the street again. She had idea what she was dealing with.

  The door opened and I kept one hand on the gun holstered at my back, the other fixed to Jessica.

  “Jason.” Don grinned. He puffed on the end of a cigar. “You’re alive after all.”

  Jessica seized beside me. I felt her entire body go rigid as she tried to inch closer to me. There was no space she hadn’t already invaded. This was as close as we could get.

  “Shh,” I hissed. “Stay calm.”

  She had seen it. The nasty scar that ran from his forehead, through his eye, all the way to his chin. It wasn’t as noticeable from the left, but it depended on how Don walked into the room. Unfortunately, tonight he had chosen to showcase his monstrous ragged scar.

  Jessica quivered behind me. Fuck. This girl was going to get us both killed. I needed to focus. Instead, I was worried about her. I’d never been the teddy bear type. If she wanted a man to hold and comfort her, I wasn’t that guy. I was the man who could save her life right now. I was the man standing between her and her worst nightmare.

  Still, there was a part of me that wanted to wrap my arms around her and kiss her. I wanted to tell her she was going to be all right. But there was no way I’d come close to anything like that in front of Don. We’d lose every advantage I had. He had worked for years to find my weakness and always came up short. That wasn’t going to change.

  Two hours ago I didn’t even know her name. I wasn’t risking everything.

  “Don, you made it.”

  He snarled. “Cut the shit.”

  His eyes wandered to the terrified girl clinging to my body. Suddenly he smiled.

  “What did you bring me?” It was more of a threat than a question.

  I shook my head. “Nothing.” I felt the cool metal in my hand as my clasped my gun. “What did you bring me? That’s why you’re here, isn’t it?”

  He strolled inside the safe house followed by his goons. They were heavily armed. I didn’t expect anything less. He traveled with a full security presence wherever he went. It was the hazard of being a mob boss. One the bastard was fucking proud of.

  “Why don’t you get me a bourbon?” He stared at Jessica. “I like mine on the rocks. Make it a double.”

  “She’s with me. Leave her out of this,” I barked. I wasn’t going to force her to serve him. I gritted my teeth.

  Don chuckled, settling on the leather sofa. It bowed under his weight. I had to hold Jessica to keep her from running. I could almost hear her heart pounding in her chest.

  “And people call you a heartless bastard, Jason.”

  I growled. “Do you have the cash or not?”

  “Where’s that drink?”

  She whimpered and the sound went right to my gut. “I’ll get your fucking drink,” I spat.

  I led Jessica to the bar. “You have to get your shit together, sweetheart.”

  She clenched her jaw. “Let me go. I’ll run.” Her eyes darted back and forth. “I used to run—in high school. I’m fast. Just let me go and you’ll never see me again.”

  I grabbed a highball glass and dropped a few ice cubes in it. I reached for the bourbon, considering what she said.

  “No.”

  “What do you mean no?” she whispered. “I don’t want anything to do with the mob, or these guys. You’re one of the good guys, right? So, let me go. Please.”

  I shook my head, pouring the thick rich bourbon into the glass. “I never said I was a good guy. I said I’d keep you safe.” I eyed the drink to make sure there was more than a double shot.

  “You’re not going to let me go?”

  “Is that really what you want?” I tilted my head. “You’re not curious what it would be like if I fucked you until the sun came up? If we had five days instead of five minutes?” I leaned toward her ear.

  She looked at the drink and then Don Lorenzo. My jaw dropped when she pulled it from my hand and started walking toward the sofa.

  “What are you doing?”

  She looked back over her shoulder at me. “I’m helping you out.”

  Fuck. She wanted to stay.

  Ali Parker

  Fuck. How had I gotten myself into the mess in front of me? The scarfaced bastard staring me down could have given Al Pacino the creeps and stolen every mafia boss part in the t
heaters without auditioning.

  Auditioning. Acting.

  I could do this. I was scared shitless, but I could do what I needed to do in order to save my own ass. The sexy bastard behind me obviously wasn’t one of the good guys at all, but something about that turned me on. A lot.

  I’d never been around anyone but good guys, and honestly… they sucked. In bed. In business. In general.

  The Don lifted his eyebrow above his good eye and gave me a cocky smirk. “Looks like Jason might have picked up a little more than he could handle tonight, no?”

  “Maybe.” I extended the drink to him and slipped into character. I’d been acting since I was a girl, and just because I hadn’t had my big break, didn’t mean that shit wasn’t mine soon. I could do this. I had to.

  “Let’s get this over with. I know you hate your time being wasted, and I’m not one to fuck around.” Jason moved up beside me before brushing his hand over my lower back.

  Had I really just fucked him without thinking twice about it? Fear. It had to be fear. Stephanie was going to flip her shit when I told her about my night. Knowing her, she’d focus on me having unprotected sex with a bad boy stranger above everything else.

  We were friends for a reason.

  The Don nodded, but kept his dark gaze on me. A tremor of fear raced through me, but I forced myself to stand steadily beside my new dark lover. I wanted more of him, and for the first time in my long life of playing it safe, I wanted something more. Something different.

  “I have the money, but before it’s yours, I want to watch the two of you.” He glanced up at Jason, who stiffened beside me.

  “Watch what?” Jason’s voice darkened.

  I glanced up toward him, numbed by the situation. I knew exactly what the Don wanted. There was no way I was stripping down in front of him and his goons.

  “Max.” The Don turned his face away from us and called out to one of the guys just behind him. “Help me make this clear to our favorite hitman what’s being requested of him and his pretty lady friend tonight.”

  “Don.” Jason moved in front of me, pulling me behind him. “”It’s not happening. She’s a sweet girl who-”

  “Is she now?” The Don’s voice held a note of humor. “Then why do I smell sex so thick I can almost taste it?”

  I gripped the back of Jason’s shirt. So much for acting anything. “No,” I whispered. “Get me out of here.”

  “What do you need me to do, Don?” Max moved up, the big ugly fucker missing a few of his teeth. He pulled gun from the holster on his hip and lifted it toward Jason. “Want me to make a hole in him for her to fuck?”

  The room exploded in laughter. I curled up tighter behind Jason. The dark scent of his cologne filled my nose, and the room spun. A mixture of fear and lust burned deep inside of me. What the fuck was going on? Better yet, how the hell was I going to get out of there.

  “Give me the money, and we’ll get out of your way. You’re not interested in seeing anything. I promise. She’s my little brother’s wife and it’s not happening.”

  “That true?” The Don barked loudly.

  Jason moved, and I pulled my shoulders back as I was left standing before the monster. Max turned the gun on me, and I froze.

  “Hey. Answer him.” Jason glanced over at me. “Now.”

  I nodded. “Yes. It’s not sex you smell. Lust maybe, but not sex.”

  “She wants me, but it ain’t happening.” Jason shook his head, gave me a psuedo look of disgust and turned back to the Don. “My money. Now. Or find yourself someone else to do your dirty work next time.”

  “You talk a big game.” The Don walked toward the door where another large goon of his was holding a dufflebag. “This time you get a pass, but bring a bitch to our meetings next time, and you’ll watch while I fuck her in the ass until she passes out. Got it?”

  “Yep.” Jason reached for my hand, gripping it tightly and pulling me toward the door. “Call when you need me again.”

  “I will. Soon.” The Don turned and handed the bag to Jason before glancing over at me and smiling. Only half of his face lifted. “You’re a pretty little thing. Better take heed of this one.”

  I nodded. “Thank you. I will.”

  We walked out, and Jason pulled me closer to his side as his breathing got off kilter. “Goddamnit. That was stupid of me to take you in there. That bastard has no sense of ownership. He thinks if he wants something or someone, they’re his for the taking.”

  I jerked my hand from his as we stopped just outside the alley on the street. “Is that what he did to you? He took you? He owns you?”

  Jason whipped around and moved to stand in front of me, toe to toe. The anger burning in his eyes almost stole my breath. If I didn’t know better, he was more dangerous than all of the men I’d come in contact with that night.

  “You don’t know anything. Don’t act like you do.” His eyes moved down to my lips as anger burned into heat. “You’re coming home with me.”

  “No. I’m not.” I pulled back though I wanted to press forward. The fresh air had my mind clearing. I wasn’t the kind of woman to fuck a stranger. I wished I were.

  “Fine. Then stay the fuck here.” He reached out and slid his fingers into my hair, gripping it tightly and pulling me close. His lips were warm against mine, his tongue dominating my mouth as he slowly took control of our kiss. Everything melted and warmth engulfed me.

  The desire to whisper ‘more’ was on the tip of my tongue.

  He jerked back and growled. “Take care, and call someone. It’s dangerous on this side of town. Get your pretty ass out of here.”

  “Wait.” I took a step in the street as he jogged away from me toward a motorcycle sitting lonely on the other side of the street. “My cell phone doesn’t work over here.”

  He glanced over his shoulder and gave me a long glare. “You got three seconds to get on this bike and I’m out of here. I’m not asking twice.”

  I bit my lip and ran through my options. The Don and his goons hadn’t come out of the building yet, and I knew for a fact that the assholes from the club were still laying down the street in the alley Jason had left them in.

  Indecision ran through me.

  Go with the evil I knew, or try to fend off the evil that I didn’t.

  Had I not been running from love, the answer would be easy.

  “One. Two. Three.” He got on the bike and started it as my heart almost stopped in my chest.

  Owned. Did the man across the street want to own me.

  Fuck. Did I want him to?

  Yeah. I did. Badly.

  Juliana Conners

  I smiled as Jessica hopped on the back of my bike. I knew she’d see it my way. After all, she’d seen and enjoyed my big cock and she knew I knew what to do with it.

  She exhaled sharply as she wrapped her arms around me and put her hands in the pockets of my leather jacket. Poor thing wasn’t used to riding a bike before. But there was a lot for her to get used to, and I knew exactly how to break her in.

  I took her to my place, now that the trouble with the Don was over. As my wheels hit the gravel in front of my house and I cut off the engine, I was glad we could just relax and enjoy each other. I helped her off my bike and put a protective arm around her as we went into the house.

  I looked around, making sure no one had followed us. The Don seemed satisfied for now, but he and his goons were unpredictable. It seemed like I was always second guessing every little thing they might do next. I knew it was the life I had signed up for after leaving the SEALs, but that didn’t mean it was always peachy fucking keen.

  As soon as I got her into the house, I couldn’t wait to tear into her.

  “Don’t forget, I said you’re mine for days,” I told her, as I ripped off her blouse.

  “You know, I do have a life of my own,” she said, but from the way she raised her eyebrows, I could tell she was more than happy to spend a long time wit
h me. And I sure planned to have my way with her for as long as I wanted.

  I tore her bra off and let it fall to the floor next to her blouse that was already down there in a crumpled heap. Her tits were nice and big, and I took one of her nipples in between my fingers and squeezed it.

  “Mmmmm,” she said, leaning into me.

  I got my own clothes off while kissing her and playing with her nipple on and off. Then I tore off her bottoms and turned her around so I could see her big juicy ass.

  She was curvy in all the right places. My kind of girl.

  I bent her over my couch and slid her panties to the side. Now I could see her ass right in front of my face like I liked it. I spread open her ass cheeks and spread her pussy wide.

  “I love your hot ass,” I told her. “And now I’m going to have fun with you.”

  As soon as I stuck my finger into her pussy, I could feel that she was dripping wet for me. I played with her clit while my other hand jerked off my cock, getting it nice and ready for her.

  “Are you going to put it inside me or not?” she asked, her voice thick with desire and impatience.

  “Hey now,” I said, raising my hand and then slapping her bare ass cheeks. “You let me call the shots.”

  “Ouch!” she called out, looking back at me and wincing. “Why’d you hit me?”

  “Because you need to learn to submit,” I told her, hitting her other ass cheek.

  Her body flinched a bit but she held steady. “Yes, Sir.”

  Now that was what I was fucking talking about. I put the head of my cock up against the entrance of her pussy and rubbed it around in her sweet juices.

  “Oh, yes,” she said, ready for my big cock. “Yes, Jason, put it in me.”

  This time I obeyed her command, because I too wanted it too badly to stop now. I plunged my cock deep into her pussy, spreading it wide open with my girth.
