Chapter 30
Jennifer
At home my nerves got the best of me. I couldn’t stop thinking about Roberto and the look he gave me as I was leaving the courtroom. It wasn’t his normal death stare and I just couldn’t place the emotions that were behind his eyes at that moment.
I waited for Ryan to come over after the hearing like we had planned the day before, but he never came. As the night wore on I gave up on the idea he was coming over and decided that he must have gotten side tracked by Roberto.
I busied myself with cleaning and organized throughout my apartment as I thought about all the details of our plan. It wasn’t a perfect plan and I knew that. Our plan involved Ryan basically throwing away his oath and getting disbarred for doing something stupid in court. It was the only way we could think of that Ryan could lose without Roberto thinking it was on purpose.
Roberto had threatened to get Ryan disbarred before. There was no way he would think that Ryan would purposely do such a thing. No Ryan would be able to put on a good show and Roberto would think that it was a slip of the tongue or something like that. Roberto wouldn’t know what had happened. Unfortunately for Ryan he would need to find a new profession when all was said and done.
My phone buzzed with a text message and I saw that it was from Ryan.
“Come over to my house, we need to talk.”
My heart sank. I felt the blood heating up my skin as the fear of going over to Ryan’s house started to fill me up. I could still feel Roberto’s hands around my neck and the fear I had when I thought he was going to kill me.
I didn’t want to go to his house. I didn’t want to be around Roberto. He had tried to strangle me only a couple of days ago. Roberto clearly thought I had given some sort of information to Mrs. Anderson. Nothing had changed about that, I didn’t want to be around him. There was no assurance that I would be safe.
Roberto was a dangerous man. I had certainly learned that in the time I had known him. He had no need for the law or the general principles of life. Roberto did things his own way and he made a point to show everyone around him that he didn’t care about their way of doing things. Roberto scared me.
I just looked at the phone and tried to decide what I should do. After about fifteen minutes I decided I needed to just talk to Ryan. I needed to hear his voice and see why he wanted me to come over. I dialed his number.
“Hi Jennifer, are you on your way?”
“No. Why do you want me to come over? Roberto won’t want me there.”
“Roberto is the one who suggested you come over. He wants to clear the air between you two before tomorrow’s final day in court.”
My heart dropped all the way down to my feet. It sounded like Ryan was warning me not to come over. There was no way that Roberto really wanted to mend things between us. There was no way he would want me to come over so he could apologize. Roberto Calvertino was not the type of guy that apologized to people.
But why would Ryan have even text me? If he didn’t want me to come over he could have just told Roberto that he sent a text but that I didn’t answer. Maybe Ryan really did want me to come over? I was confused.
“Um, so you really want me to come over?” I asked, the trepidation in my voice was thick.
“Yes, you can spend the night here. Come on over.”
Ryan hung up the phone and I could feel myself start to sweat with anticipation. I really didn’t want to go over there. But I also couldn’t say no to Ryan. If he needed me to be there, it must be part of his plan.
I pulled on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt and made my way across town to Ryan’s house. I didn’t know what to expect, but I did know that I couldn’t wait until the final court day was over and Roberto was back in prison for good.
***
At Ryan’s house, I found Roberto and Ryan sitting in the main room. They actually seemed very comfortable with each other. It threw me off. I had expected that Roberto would still be angry with Ryan, but that did not seem to be the case.
Only a couple days before the two men had seemed like either of them could kill the other. Now they sat on the same couch and appeared to be happy and bullshitting when I came into the room. I felt uneasy with the situation and searched Ryan’s eyes for some sort of answer.
“Come in young lady, sit down,” Roberto said as he motioned to the lounge chair across from the couch.
“I’m going to go grab some snacks. Do either of you want anything?” Ryan asked.
I just stared at him. Was he really going to leave me alone in the room with Roberto? I had no idea what was going on, but I did not like it at all. The Ryan that I knew never wanted to leave me alone with Roberto. Even before I knew Roberto was his father, Ryan didn’t want me to be around him without some sort of supervision.
Ryan probably knew his father well enough to know that he would hit on me. And we did have that threesome together so it was clear that Roberto would do what he wanted with me when he had the chance.
Ryan walked out of the room and I was left there with Roberto. He looked friendlier than he had the last time I was in Ryan’s house. I wasn’t sure why he was so nice to me, but it freaked me out. Something was going on and I certainly wasn’t being let in on the secret.
“Do you want me to go back to prison?” Roberto asked me.
His eyes burned into mine, but he didn’t seem agitated or angry as he asked me. My faced turned read and I didn’t know what to say. Yes! Yes, I wanted him to go back to prison. I wanted him to be out of mine and Ryan’s life forever. Obviously I couldn’t say that to Roberto though. I needed to use my acting skills. I had to convince Roberto that I was on his side and wanted what was best for him.
“No, that’s why I came to court today. I knew you were mad at me, but I still wanted Ryan to do good in the hearing. I think Ryan did a great job. Don’t you?”
Roberto smiled at me. It was a smile like he had given me before when he wanted to fuck me. I was suddenly more aware of my body and pulled at my shirt to cover up my breasts better. I had no urges at all to be with Roberto ever again. In fact, just being around him made me want to gag or vomit. I didn’t want him and I wasn’t about to tell him anything like that.
The urge that I had once had was clearly because Roberto reminded me so much of Ryan. I would not make that mistake again. I would not let Roberto touch my body like that ever again. Roberto was not the man I wanted, Ryan was.
It was Ryan that I thought about at night and Ryan who I felt my body tremble for in my dreams. I didn’t care anymore that Ryan was related to Roberto. I just wanted it all to be over with and Roberto to be back in prison. Then Ryan and I would be able to move forward with our lives.
“I’m happy to hear that,” Roberto said as he smiled boyishly at me.
He looked at me and I looked back at him. I wasn’t sure why we were having this conversation or why Ryan had insisted on leaving the room. I was nervous and I felt like my whole body had turned flush red. I didn’t want to talk to Roberto anymore. I needed Ryan.
“Ryan shared all the evidence with me throughout this case. They have no real evidence. You will certainly get off.”
I lied my ass off. I used every trick I could remember to make myself more believable. I leaned in toward him, made sure to look him directly in the eyes and I smiled slightly as I spoke. I wasn’t about to be the person to tell Roberto that he was going back to prison. We just had to make it through one more day and then Ryan’s plan would be finished.
Roberto got up from the couch and made his way over to my lounge chair. I pulled my feet back toward me as he straddled the chair and sat down right in front of me. Panic ran through my body and I looked to the doorway to see if Ryan was coming back.
“He’s not coming back. I asked him to leave us alone.”
“Why?” I asked, although I thought the answer was becoming clearer.
I couldn’t figure out why Ryan would lure me back to his house and leave me alone with his father. Especially
considering his father had tried to strangle me only a few days before. I had no idea what was going on but I wasn’t about to sleep with this man again. Roberto disgusted me and I needed to get away from him.
“Because we needed to make up before the hearing was over. I’m going to be out after this hearing and I know Ryan cares about you. I want us to get along again.”
Roberto reached up and grabbed my leg and pulled it to one side of the lounge chair, then he did the same for the other leg. I held my breath as his hands pulled on my legs. I didn’t know what he was doing and I didn’t want to stay there to find out. I needed to get away from Roberto.
I was left sitting there in my shorts with my legs spread wide apart. I felt so vulnerable. I did not feel comfortable at all. I started to get angry with Ryan for leaving me in such a position with Roberto. Why didn’t Ryan care? It baffled me. I couldn’t figure out what was going on, but I did know that I wasn’t going to sleep with Roberto.
“Yes, that’s a good idea,” I said as I tried to appease him.
Roberto put his hands onto my thighs and started to rub them up and down my legs. It took everything I had not to cringe at his touch. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know how I was going to be able to get out of this.
“Here are some chips and salsa and a few drinks,” Ryan said as he came back into the room.
Relief flooded my body as I looked to Ryan to save me.
“Dad, leave her alone. She’s mine now,” Ryan joked.
Roberto got up from the lounge chair and moved back over to where he had been sitting on the couch. Something seemed different about Ryan. He didn’t seem angry with his father at all. Something was going on and it was really starting to freak me out.
“I’m sorry Jennifer. I apologize. I’m just a horny old man.”
Roberto smiled at me and then turned to talk to Ryan again. I sat on the lounge chair and listened to them discuss the final day at the court hearing. They discussed their strategy and how the questions would go. Ryan tried to prepare Roberto for some of the cross examination questions. It was weird to watch them getting along so well and it reminded me of when we first started to work with Roberto.
“Do you guys mind if I head up to bed?” I asked as I searched for any excuse to get out of the room.
“Sounds good. I’ll be up shortly,” Ryan said.
I made my way out of the room and headed to the stairs. I stopped at the bottom step as I heard Ryan talk to Roberto.
“See Dad, I told you it would be easier than you thought. She’ll do anything we want her to.”
I moved quietly up the stairs to Ryan’s room and shut the door behind me. I couldn’t trust either of them!
Chapter 31
Ryan
I saw the hurt in Jennifer’s eyes the second I got into the bedroom. She was scared and didn’t know what was going on. Unfortunately, I couldn’t tell her everything just yet. She had to think certain things or my plan would never work. Her trusting me was essential to everything going exactly as I had planned.
“I’m sorry I had to bring you here.”
“I don’t know what to believe Ryan. Why are you being so nice to Roberto, I mean your Dad?”
“He’s my father and if he’s going to be out soon, I need to make amends with him.”
“Amends? He tried to kill me.”
I could tell she was getting angry. I could also tell that she totally forgot that my bedroom was bugged with cameras and microphones. I definitely couldn’t tell her the truth. I needed her to act exactly like she was.
I had worked for months to perfect this plan and I was only a few days away from everything happening. I had to hold on to my secrets.
“I’m sorry Jen, but family is family. I know once you get to know him you will really like him.”
She was about to leave. I could see it in her face and there was no way I could let her leave. It would ruin everything. She had to be at court tomorrow. The whole plan required her to be there.
I moved in close to her. My hand softly touched her cheek and I guided her chin up so she looked into my eyes. Those beautiful green eyes of hers were so hard to lie to, this whole thing had been so difficult. But it was only difficult because I actually cared about her. When this plan had gotten started, I thought she would just be some dumb law student that I could guide right to where I needed her. The time I’ve had with Jennifer was well beyond what I had expected. My body longed for her. I had not expected that at all. I had not intended to have any emotional connection or physical connection; but I did.
Her eyes darted to the door and then back to my lips. With a quick deep motion, I caught her off guard and stole her breath away. The softness of her lips sent electricity throughout my body and my cock charged with desire for Jennifer.
I moved diligently and picked her up slightly as we kissed and moved toward the bed. I needed to have her. I needed to feel her skin pressed against mine. I might never get to feel her again.
My body reacted so quickly when I was near her. All I could think about was her breath on my neck as I slid deep inside of her. The moans and noises she would make were heaven to my ears. I wanted to hear them for hours and hours at a time. I needed to hear her pleasure at least one last time.
“Cameras,” I whispered in her ear. “They are everywhere. I watched you in the room with him. I wouldn’t have let anything happen.”
She softened after hearing that. I felt her body as it pressed harder against me. She wanted me just as bad as I wanted her.
Jennifer
Feeling Ryan’s cock as it pressed up against my leg made my body wet with desire. I needed him. I had to have him and after he told me he had watched on camera to make sure I was safe; well that’s when I knew I was going to give in to him.
My body just couldn’t help it as his hands had a power over me that no one else had ever had. It was in his firm touch and the warmth of his fingertips. There was nothing I wanted more than to be in that room with Ryan at that very moment.
“I need you,” Ryan whispered as he grabbed at my top and pulled it up over my head.
“You have me,” I said quietly.
“I mean it. No matter what happens tomorrow. Please remember that this right here is real. This feeling between us…this is real.”
I didn’t know what he was saying that, but it made my stomach sink. I couldn’t help but wonder what he thought would happen when we were at court in the morning. It scared me, but I was happy to be alone with him for the moment.
Anytime I was alone with him was a good moment. I couldn’t help but wonder what things would be like when everything was over.
“Make love to me Ryan,” I said as I slid my shorts off.
“Yes, baby.”
Ryan laid me down gently on his silk sheets and started to kiss my toes. His moist lips moved up my leg slowly and I felt my hips longing to have his lips touch them. I twisted back and forth as I welcomed his warmth.
Soon I felt the warmth of his hands on my hips and I held my breath in anticipation of his warmth covering my clit. I soaked myself with desire for him. I needed Ryan. I had to have him. My body felt like it would explode at any moment if I didn’t have Ryan inside of me.
Then, without warning, Ryan used his leverage of my hips and flipped me around and onto my stomach.
His lips continued over the mounds of my ass and up my back until he reached my neck. Gently he moved my hair away from my neck, just like on the night we first met. I anticipated he would tell me he wanted to be inside of me.
His breath was heavy and I could feel the hardness of his cock as it seduced my ass. My body pressed back against him and wanted to feel his cock more and more. I wanted to feel him inside of me. I needed to feel the pleasure of his thrusts.
“I’m going to make love to you now,” Ryan whispered and then used his leverage of my hips to flip me over again. But this time he moved me toward the middle of the bed as he turned me.
“Yes, M
r. King. I’m all yours.”
He used his knee to spread me open and I felt his body as it came down on me. His throbbing member only moments away from entering me as I opened up for him.
My mind remembered back to that night in the club and how he had wanted me so badly. I couldn’t resist him that night, but like I couldn’t resist him any night. My body desired his pleasure so much that there was nothing in the world I could do to say no to him. I just had to say yes.
Slowly, with deliberate motion, Ryan slid into my body. His eyes looked down at me and our lips touched with gentleness as our bodies worked together. Slow and firm we thrust against each other.
For almost thirty minutes, we thrust and held onto each other, both of us sweating from the exertion. Me totally exhausted and him looking like he could go on for hours and hours. My body shook as the last bit of energy I had was used to build up to my orgasm.
My body soaked with a need for him and I finally succumb to the orgasm that had been building for so long. My nails grabbed into his back as my whole body stiffened. It didn’t slow him as I clenched my muscles around his firmness. Instead, my orgasm drove him to thrust harder.
Without hesitation, I screamed out as he thrust so beautifully into me that my whole body shook.
Our lips stayed locked together as I felt his body give into a final thrust and joyous explosion that he had held off on throughout our lovemaking. Ryan was drenched in sweat just like I was, at least for that I was grateful. I didn’t want to be the only one who looked exhausted from our love making.
Ryan collapsed onto me and then spooned me up in front of him as we both fell asleep from exhaustion. The next day was going to be huge; we had to get some rest.

“All rise, the honorable Judge Henry presiding,” the bailiff said as the final day of court proceedings got started.
