Kade: Ok, I’ll text you later.
Scarlett: K
I smiled at her replies. I couldn’t wait to see her, touch her, and taste her. It had been too long. Just being around her made me feel … whole. I wasn’t even sure if I understood what the hell I was thinking, but it was the way I felt.
After I ate, I took a shower and got ready to head for the barn. I didn’t know what I was going to be doing so I just settled on wearing jeans and a t-shirt. I couldn’t go wrong with that.
At eight thirty, I headed out the door. I wanted to make sure I was early, giving Frank a good impression. Implying that I was eager and ready to be a part of his business … our business. I got into my BMW and drove away.
I knew I would be putting on the same mask as I did with Paul when we did our jobs. I was a good actor and I was bound to prove it since I had no idea what was going to happen. I would have been lying if I said I wasn’t nervous about it. I knew that many people have been killed in the barn, with them doing God only knows what with the bodies afterwards.
Frank was definitely a dangerous man and I understood why he did things the way he did. Anyone who had ever watched a mob movie knows, to earn respect you had to give respect. If you crossed him, he would use you as an example. Plain and simple. There was no mercy in that business and from what I had seen, no second chances. If you weren’t a piece on Frank’s chessboard, you were expendable.
For me, I didn’t know what I would say to Frank if he wanted me to kill someone. If that was what I had to do to show him my loyalty … I wasn’t sure I could go that far, but how would I tell him no? It would only push me further down in the trust game.
Not wanting to think about it anymore, I turned up the radio, blasting Metallica through the speakers in order to get everything off my mind.
As I turned off Rd 20 and headed down Dower Road toward the barn, I couldn’t help the heavy feeling that entered my stomach. The road wound through what used to be a wheat field; it was at least a three-mile trek. As the barn came into view, I could see the shadows being cast by the moon, giving it an eerie feel. It was the perfect setting.
I pulled up to the side of the barn and parked. No one had arrived yet, so I got out of the car to get a better look at the barn. The wood looked to have dry rot and was falling apart. There were boards missing all over. I couldn’t see a barn door either, but I wasn’t sure there was one there to begin with.
As I walked back to my car, I noticed headlights shining in the fields, heading my way. I leaned up against my car door and looked up at the sky as I waited for them to park. It was a nice night to be outside. The sky was clear and the stars were out. I just wish I could have enjoyed it under different circumstances.
Two black sedans came to a stop next to me. Frank got out of one and two guys I had never met before got out of the other one. These guys looked like badass motherfuckers. They were big. The kind of big you didn’t want to pick a fight with. They were both dressed in jeans and black t-shirts. They had what looked to be military haircuts, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they were actually in the military, and working for Frank.
Frank walked over and stood beside me. “You ready?”
“As ready as I’ll ever be.”
I didn’t look at Frank. I watched as one of the guys walked to the back of the car and opened the trunk. I could hear muffled moaning and then I saw a figure being pulled out.
Goose bumps appeared on my arms in that moment. This was real now. No matter what, I had to focus on the task at hand.
The guy walked the figure toward the barn; the man from the trunk had a sack or pillowcase over his head.
Frank turned to me. “Do you box, Nick?”
“I have before, yeah,” I said as I turned to face him.
One side of his mouth quirked up. “Great … I’ve got a bag you get to practice on.”
He turned and walked into the barn that was now slightly lit up.
I anxiously followed in behind Frank to see the guy with the bag over his head was now chained with his hands up. The two henchmen were off to the side so Frank could approach him. I wasn’t sure how I felt about this whole situation. I knew what he wanted me to do. I’d never hit someone without provocation. I wasn’t like Paul; he was sadistic and got enjoyment out of this shit. It made me feel sick and uneasy.
Looking the guy over, I tried to figure out who it could be. Now that we were in the light, I could see that he was wearing slacks and a button-up shirt. Whoever it was, he was obviously not in Frank’s good graces.
As we stood there and waited, I could feel the sweat running down my back. I could see the gun tucked in the back of Frank’s pants and I half expected him to pull it out and shoot the guy right away, but I assumed that wasn’t his style.
Frank approached the man and motioned for me to follow.
I stood to the left of Frank as he pulled the bag off the guy’s head.
I immediately saw the huge lump on the right side of his swollen eye. One of the goons must have punched him to knock him out so they could haul him here.
“What the fuck, Frank?” the guy moaned.
“What the fuck am I paying you for? I have to find out on my own that there’s another investigation open on me.”
The guy shook his head. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Frank looked at me and nodded his head. I took that as an indication that it was time for me to box.
The guy looked at me and widened his one good eye. He knew I was going to do something. Before he could speak a word, I inhaled a deep breath, cocked my arm back, and gave him an uppercut to the gut. I exhaled and took a couple steps back. The guy hunched over the best he could, moaning in pain.
Frank continued, “That’s not what I’ve heard on the streets, Bill. Word is … it’s been going on for a while now. You’re the captain of the LAPD. How would you not know?”
He nodded at me again. I did exactly as I had done before, but this time, I punched a little higher and a little harder. I distinctively heard a crack as my fist connected to his side. Bill let out a scream and groaned as I backed away. I looked over at Frank, shocked at myself that I broke one of his ribs. He shook his head at me and I retreated a few steps.
I instantly felt like throwing up. Sure, I had been in plenty of fights and I’m sure I had broken a nose, an arm, even a rib, but this was different. This was malice, plain and simple, and I was the one causing it on someone I had no issues with.
Bill gasped a couple of times before he spoke. “Fuck, Frank,” he said through gritted teeth. “I don’t know anything about it. I swear. If there’s an investigation open, it must be with the FBI. They don’t tell us what the fuck they are doing.”
Frank walked up to Bill and grabbed him by the jaw. “You better not be fucking lying to me or you won’t see the beginning of next week,” he spat. “I’ll be in touch. Take care of it, boys,” he said looking over at the henchmen.
He walked toward the opening of the barn and motioned for me to follow.
Is that it? All the way out here just for this?
I followed him back to our cars on the side of the barn. As he walked up to his car, he paused and turned to face me. “You did well tonight.”
I looked at him confused. “Are we done?”
He chuckled, “Yeah, we’re done. That was an interrogation method. It helps build fear, and when people fear for their lives, they talk.”
I could hear scuffling coming from the barn accompanied by moans.
“What are they going to do with Bill?” I asked, pointing behind me.
Frank walked up to me and patted me on the back, pushing me toward my car.
“You worry too much, Nick. They’re just going to rough him up a little, and then dump him off at his car. Go ahead and head home. I’ll be calling you this week.”
He walked to his car, got in, and drove away.
I stared at his taillights for a few minutes before opening my door. I di
dn’t know how I felt about this whole situation. This place was off the grid. Anything could happen here. And I didn’t like how easily he could involve me in it. I might seem badass on the outside, but there was only so much of this I would be able to take before I broke.
As I drove away from the barn, the only thing I could think about was getting my mind off what the guys might be doing to Bill. So I did the only thing I wanted to do, I called Scarlett.
“Hello?”
It was amazing how just the sound of her voice could make me smile. “Hey beautiful. Is it okay if I come see you?”
“Sure.” I could hear the smile in her voice. “How long do you think it’ll be before you get here?”
“Uh … probably around twenty minutes.”
“Okay, sounds good. Oh … and Kade?”
“Yeah.”
“Jules isn’t here,” she giggled.
Fuck. I felt my dick twitch with excitement. “Now who’s being a tease?”
“Bye,” she laughed and hung up the phone.
I shook my head and laughed to myself as I set my phone down in the cup holder. She was going to get it when I got there.
Fifteen minutes later, I parked in front of Scarlett’s apartment building. I couldn’t help my led foot on the way over here, so I arrived sooner than I thought.
I knocked on her door and waited for her to answer. I found myself shuffling my feet side to side. I was antsy; I just couldn’t wait to get my hands on her. She was my drug. I was addicted and a little hit wouldn’t be enough. I wanted all of her. I wanted to be all for her. Everything she needed.
I heard the click of the door being unlocked and the creak of the doorknob being turned. The door opened and there she was. I could smell her as soon as she opened the door, lavender and vanilla. She must have just taken a shower. Her hair was in a loose messy bun on top of her head and she was wearing a bathrobe. So fucking beautiful.
“Hey, come on and get in here.” She waved me in with a smile.
Giving her one of my sexy grins, I walked in past her, but I didn’t go far. I waited for her to shut and lock the door.
When she turned around, I stuck my hand out. She looked down at my hand and immediately lifted hers and grasped it.
“Where is your room?”
I didn’t want to wait. I wasn’t here to watch movies. Would I have watched movies with her if that was what she wanted to do? Yes, but I could tell by the look on her face, she wanted exactly the same thing I did. I could tell by the flush going from her collarbone all the way to her cheeks. The lustful look in her eyes that were penetrating mine.
She walked and pulled me toward the hallway past the living room, to the first door on the left.
I kicked the door closed as she pulled me in. We simply stood and stared at each other. Our breaths already labored with excitement.
I slowly walked up to her, lifting my hand up to caress her cheek. “I still can’t believe I’m here with you.”
“Me too,” she sighed as she leaned into my hand.
Lifting my other hand, I ran my fingers through her hair. I pulled the elastic band out and grasped her hair into my fist, then my mouth was on hers. She let out a soft moan as our lips finally connected, our tongues teasing and our teeth biting. My breaths were coming rapidly and I couldn’t contain my own hums of approval as she explored my body with her hands.
Letting my hands drop, I found the tie that held her robe closed. I untied it and pulled it apart. My hands started to do their own exploring; it didn’t take long until I discovered she wasn’t wearing anything underneath. I groaned and my cock twitched. I was now hard as a rock. I had to slow down before it was over faster than it started. I wanted to savor every moment.
Slowly, I pulled my lips away and looked at her beautiful face. Her cheeks were flushed and her lips swollen and red. Just the sight of her in front of me all flushed and breathing heavily with her robe gaping open, made me want to throw her on the bed and fuck her into oblivion. But it would be over too soon for me. I wanted to taste every inch of her. Memorize every curve of her body, every moan that escaped her lips. I wanted to make her come until she begged me to stop. Only then would I succumb to my own needs.
I lifted my hands up to her shoulders and gently pushed the robe back making it fall in a lump at her feet.
“Go lay on the bed and spread your legs for me.” She hesitated for only a second.
I said I would let her have control, but tonight I needed it. I had no control over anything else in my life at that moment, so right then, I needed the control. Especially after the night I had.
I walked to the end of the bed as she got comfortable, resting her hands on her sides as she spread her legs for me.
I could see goose bumps on her body as she bit her lower lip and gazed at me with hooded eyes. She was wet for me and I licked my lips in anticipation. I had to hold myself back from diving right in. Not once did I go down on anyone else while Scarlett and I were apart. Her taste and her smell were burned into my receptors and I didn’t want anything else to fuck that up. And right then, I needed a little reminding.
Leaning over the bed, I grabbed ahold of both of her ankles. She gasped as I pulled her down the bed in one swift motion, until her butt hit my legs. “Bend your knees and put your feet up on the bed. Spread wide for me, Scarlett,” I demanded softly.
Her chest heaved with excitement as she bit her bottom lip and smiled at me. She did what she was told and I had to adjust my cock that was pressed firmly against my zipper, begging to be let free. “You’re so fucking beautiful, Scarlett.”
I couldn’t wait any longer. The scent of her arousal was too much. I had to taste her.
Dropping to my knees, I gripped her thighs and lowered my head down to her pussy, keeping my eyes locked onto hers.
That moment was my favorite, the sound of her gasp as my tongue touched her clit. Darting my tongue out, I licked her juices up, all the way to her clit. She gasped and moaned, dropping her head to the bed, breaking eye contact. She did exactly what I thought she would do and I closed my eyes and moaned with her. I couldn’t help it. She tasted so fucking good. I wouldn’t be able to hold back any longer. I wanted to hear her come. The sound of her moans were such a turn-on and fueled my movements.
I alternated between fucking her with my tongue, licking, and sucking her clit. I loved the way she bucked her hips and pulled my hair, rubbing her pussy all over my face. I groaned in approval, but moved my left hand to her hips and held her down. With my right hand, I pushed in two fingers and slowly started pumping in and out. I watched her as she lay with her head to the side, eyes closed, mouth slightly open, fists grabbing the sheets, tits rising and falling. It was a sexy fucking sight.
“Are you ready to come, beautiful?”
She answered with a moan.
Fuck. She’s going to make me explode in my pants if she kept that up.
Lowering my head back down between her legs, I pumped her with my fingers as I continuously licked her clit. She grabbed onto my head to hold me in place. I could tell she was about to come. Her inner walls started to pulsate on my fingers. And right when I knew she was going to let go and come, I hooked my fingers into her g-spot and sucked down on her clit. She cried out and bucked her hips as her orgasm took over. I groaned and watched her arch her back in ecstasy. I was so fucking turned on. I think my cock was harder than it ever had been before.
Removing my fingers slowly, I lowered my mouth to lick up all of her juices as she ran her fingers through my hair and moaned softly.
She lifted her head and looked at me with a smile. “Wow.”
“You liked that, did you?” I chuckled.
“Yes,” she said breathless.
I lifted a hand to wipe my mouth and beard. “Scoot back up on the bed. We aren’t done yet.”
She licked her bottom lip and bit down as she moved up the bed. I groaned as I stood up. She was going to be the death of me with that lip biting.
I removed my shirt and unbuttoned my jeans, taking them off along with my boxers. My cock was happy to finally be free. I grabbed a hold of it and pumped a couple of times. It was definitely harder. She watched me with lustful eyes as I touched myself. She liked it and I would continue to do it just to watch her reaction, but I wasn’t going to last. I was too hard and too fucking turned-on.
I crawled up the bed on my hands and knees. She already had her legs bent and open waiting for me. So as soon as my thighs hit the back of hers, I leaned down to give her gorgeous tits some attention. I sucked one into my mouth and fondled the other, biting one as I pinched the other. All the time, her hands roamed my body. She raked her nails up and down my back and moaned. Switching breasts, I gave the other one equal attention.
I looked up at her as I let her nipple go with a pop. “I’m going to fuck you hard, Scarlett. I’m not going to be able to hold back,” I said as I lifted my left hand into her hair behind her head.
“Yes,” she sighed as she put her hands on my biceps.
Guiding myself to her wet pussy, I slowly pushed in. My eyes rolled to the back of my head involuntarily. This was fucking bliss. She felt so good. Tight and wet. She was moaning and moving her hips, but I couldn’t move yet. If I did, it’d be over.
Opening my eyes, I gazed down at her. I still couldn’t believe I was here. After all that time, she still wanted me.
I leaned down and captured her lips with mine and slowly rocked my hips back and forth. She was so tight and hugged my cock perfectly. I picked up speed and pulled my lips away.
I lifted back up so I could pound into her deeper. “Hold your legs up,” I commanded.
She lifted both legs up and grabbed the back of her thighs, opening wider for me. I groaned and thrust harder and faster. She cried out as I went deeper. The sound of our skin slapping together only made me want to go faster. I could feel my orgasm stirring, but I wanted her to get off one more time.
Resting my body against hers, I buried my face into her neck and rotated my pelvic bone against her clit. I knew I was hitting the right spot when she repeated her “oh God” mantra.
