Wrecked (The Blackened Window)
Page 32
It was almost midnight when Xander left, shaking everyone’s hands, thanking my mom and dad for their hospitality. Thanking my mom for suggesting that he come up and meet them. I walked him to his rental car and kissed him goodnight.
“Our flight is at two. I will be here at noon to get you. Be ready.”
“Of course, Boss. Anything else?” I felt vaguely secretarial saying that and a whole new set of fantasies began to take hold in the back of my mind.
“Yeah, I want you to get yourself off tonight, thinking about me getting myself off in my hotel room, thinking of you.”
I drew a sharp breath at the unexpected instructions, but then mentally chastised myself. Why would that be unexpected? It wouldn’t even be unexpected for him to tell me to get on my knees in the snow and suck him off. Well, maybe not in my parent’s driveway.
“Little girl, did you hear me?” He tipped my chin up to him.
“Yeah.” My voice cracked, throat dry. I swallowed and tried again, “Yes, heard you. I’m to make myself come, thinking of you making yourself come, thinking of me.” I pressed myself into his chest. “But, Xander…”
“But? How does that usually end, little girl?” The menace was delicious and sent chills up my spine. I tilted my head back to look in his eyes as I lifted to my toes and licked his lips.
I whispered against his mouth, “But all week, I’ve touched myself to fantasies of you over me, pounding me into the bed, fucking me so hard, so good.” I ran my fingers over his neck, into his hair. “I miss you inside me.”
“Little girl,” his growl was a warning.
“I want you in my mouth so hard and so long that you leave me with chapped lips.” I pulled back again, looking into his eyes. “Will you fuck my mouth like that?”
“Fuck, Leda. You’re killing me.”
“You’re on my home turf tonight. I’ll be on yours tomorrow.” I kissed him softly, one more time before turning to head back inside. “Goodnight, Boss.”
His goodnight was just a deep groan, but I got a text message before I made it to my bedroom.
You’re going to pay for that. You know that right?—X
Yeah? Well, that might have been my goal…XXOOFFFFF—L
There was a long delay before his reply and I thought I was in trouble.
I’m checked in at the Westin, if you need anything tonight.—X
Really? That’s it? And btw…there’s a whole bunch I need tonight. We just covered that—L
Yes we did. You’re working on some punishment and we have a lot of time together in the next few days. You know what I want you to do tonight. I’m getting started now.—X
One-handed texting now.—L
I’m thinking of your skin under my hands, your mouth on me.—X
I’m thinking of being tied on your bed, stretched out tight, ice cubes in my mouth—L
I’m thinking of fucking your ass in front of a mirror so I can see your face when you stretch out to take me—X
My fingers traced my skin, so wet, spreading my lips apart and pressing into my clitoris. The thought of his cock in my ass was mouth-watering and terrifying at the same time.
Well, now I’m thinking of that too. So tight and full.
I’m thinking of tying you up and cutting your clothes off you. Spanking your ass, my hands on your throat.
I pressed into myself, harder, more insistent. It was such a poor substitute for being with him, but I was getting close.
I’m so close. I want you, on me, in my mouth. Please 2moro?
Yes. So good, little girl
I came at yes. Thanks. :) L
Me, too. –X
There was a pause for a few minutes before I got one more text from him.
I’m thinking of you trusting me.—X
I do trust you.—L
I wanted to say ‘I love you’, ‘I always want to be near you’ and all the other crushy things people say when they’re enthralled with someone. And dammit, I was so enthralled, taken over, subsumed. In love with him.

He picked me up at noon, on the dot. Once through to the gate, we were able to immediately board and wait for our flight on the supremely comfortable plane. We waited for less than twenty minutes for the Senator’s sister. She flowed onto the plane, processed, coifed blonde hair, oversized sunglasses and a fur wrap. I immediately felt like a complete slob in my leggings, boots and oversized sweater
Xander stood and smiled. “Mrs. Ivory. Thank you for allowing us to hitch a ride.”
A young woman trailed after her, carrying lots of things and behaving deferentially. I assumed an assistant. Then a gentleman, there is no other word for a man in his sixties, fit, dressed in an immaculately tailored suit. He brushed past Mrs. Ivory, his hand grazing her butt, which triggered a slight smirk from her.
“Oh, Alex! Why are you so formal? I’ve known you forever. Of course, you can fly with us. Now introduce me to Leda.” First, Alex? Second, she knew my name? I would be revisiting all of this at a later time with Alex…Xander…Alexander?
He had the grace to grimace slightly, knowing that I would have questions for him. “Mrs. Bitsy Ivory, please meet Leda Collins. Leda, this is Mrs. Ivory, Senator Noe’s sister.”
She was thin, but her presence was huge. She took her sunglasses off and she had clearly been Botoxed and lifted and stretched, but not ridiculously so.
“Leda, a pleasure to meet you. I’m not sure how Alex roped you into this.”
Literally, Bitsy. He literally roped me at one point.
She continued, “We have to go, family support and all that. I’ve taken a few Xanax to get through the flight. Do either of you need one?”
Weirdly hospitable. “Nice to meet you and thank you again. I appreciate being included, because he did kind of rope me in.” There was a seriously bleak moment when she looked at me blankly, and I heard a small croak from Xander, before she laughed and I laughed with her, adding, “I know it’s routine for you, but I’m excited. I haven’t been to DC since my eighth grade class trip.”
She smiled at us, turning to Xander. “She’s sweet, Alex. A little young, but then again, I’m fifteen years younger than John. Either way, don’t fuck this one up.” On the tail of that jarring statement, she turned from us, calling, “John, come be pleasant and say hello to Alex. You should meet Leda.”
Mr. Ivory looked up and nodded, giving the one second finger gesture, as he finished a phone call. A few moments later he joined us, shaking Xander’s hand.
“Mr. Ivory, this is my girlfriend, Leda Collins. Leda this is Mr. John Ivory.”
We shook hands, and his gaze lingered on my chest. I thought, oh, so you’re an old perv, whose wife is rapidly becoming more sedated. Bitsy was indeed looking droopy. He handed her a crystal highball with amber liquid that I assumed was scotch and she gulped it down.
Smiling again, though with lids at half-mast, she answered my unspoken concern, “I have a terrible fear of flying, Leda. Just hate it. And I figure, there are two doctors on the plane.” Her tongue was starting to sound a little thick, and John guided her farther back in the plane by her elbow. She took off her fur and gave it to the assistant. She was painfully thin underneath, far more so than I had thought when she still had the bulky wrap on. I was concerned on a whole new level about the Xanax and alcohol.
Once we were in the air, Xander turned to me. “So…about my name. It’s actually Alexander. I have gone by Xander since I was fourteen.” He cringed a moment. “Sorry I didn’t tell you that.”
“Anything else I should know?” I took a deep breath. “I mean it is really weird to have had you…in me, and just now find out that I haven’t actually known your name.”
He shrank a moment then, he changed. The Dom Xander looked back at me, hard eyes, set jaw, but he said nothing for a long moment.
“Do you regret it?” His voice was cold, flat.
“Christ, no, Xander. I just feel a little kept in the dark with you sometimes.”
“You like being in the dark with me.” His voice shifted to the low purr that I loved, but I wasn’t gonna bite.
“So, can I call you Alexander now? It’s so upper crust sounding. Like where’s your yacht, Alexander? Where are you summering this year, Alexander, Europe or the Cape?” I put on affected voice that was truly very similar to Bitsy’s. His face blanked with surprise at my sass and I dissolved into giggles. “Xander, I don’t really care, I guess. It’s not like you know everything about me.” I stood, intending to find the restroom, but he grabbed my wrist.
“Where are you going?”
It wasn’t like him to be anxious like that. “The bathroom. Where else could I go?”
“Be careful.” There was a distracted, kind of stormy look on his face.
Trying to figure that out distracted me as I walked back to the rear of the plane. I noticed Bitsy draped over a long couch, asleep. And I walked directly into something, tall and firm, smelling expensive and male. I snapped my head around and was looking into John Ivory’s buttons. I looked up at his face and he smiled down at me, but didn’t step back. Something about it was a little charming, but he was older than my dad and his wife was unconscious a few feet from us and my boyfriend was here too. And it got gross in a hurry.
“Excuse me, Leda.” He brushed past me, a little closer than necessary. But then I was past him, walking again, eyes on my path now.
When I stepped out of the bathroom, Xander was there, waiting for me. There was no way he’d missed the close call with Ivory. With a forced calm to his voice, he suggested, “Let’s get a drink.”
There was a small galley kitchen stocked with refreshments. I decided on water. I wanted all my faculties. There were some weird vibes on this plane. I flashed to a mental image of Samuel L Jackson shouting, “There are some weird motherfucking vibes on this weird motherfucking plane” and cracked a smile.
One eyebrow cocked, Xander asked, “Something funny, Leeds?”
“Hard to explain, the inner monologue is hilarious sometimes. And more to the point, who said you get to call me Leeds, Alex?” I answered with a laugh.
He released a little tension from his shoulders and brushed a kiss across my temple as he took my elbow to lead me back to our seats. It was exactly the same gesture that John had used with Bitsy earlier. I allowed myself to be guided and found that I liked it. He felt like an anchor in the best sense of the word.
Once we were seated, I asked, “Why did Bitsy know my name before you introduced us?”
“Security protocols. The Senator gets a lot of death threats, so everyone getting close to him or his family has to be cleared by their private security team. There was an actual foiled assassination attempt few years ago. Someone got a package though security to his office, back when all those white powder anthrax threats were being made by mail. So, that freaked everyone out a bunch.”
“Naturally. Was anyone hurt?” This is what his world has always been.
“No, fortunately. But what these shitheads don’t get is that it was the lowliest assistant opening the mail and sorting it for the office. She’s the one who would have died. Dumb fucks.”
Our conversation meandered from there for the rest of the flight, which was relatively uneventful. We arrived in DC and thanked the Ivory’s again as we deplaned, promising to see them at the fundraiser. They got into a waiting limo. Bitsy was a little unsteady, but still breathing, so I counted that a plus.
Chapter Thirty-Seven
Xander
The Glitch Mob, Animus Vox
Once we were through the airport parking, out on the road, I started heading toward my parents’ house, on the far side of DC. I was still pissed about John’s behavior. He was disgusting, a sick pervert. And I wanted to protect Leda from that. Forever. And what was I doing? I was taking her right into the middle of it.
“What’s up with you right now?”
I glanced at her when her question pulled me from my thoughts.
“You’ve been really quiet.”
I answered, trying to keep the banked anger from my tone. “My mind is just rehashing things. John is such a fucked-up old pervert. I saw him staring at your chest and your ass. He just pissed me off. As much as Bitsy is a lushy old MILF, she deserves more respect than he gives her and, well, clearly you’re mine.” For fuck’s sake. “It just pissed me off, but he’s a billionaire, married to my dad’s boss’s sister and the biggest campaign supporter Noe has.” I paused, but she didn’t respond, so I kept going. “Truthfully, I don’t really want to be here. I want to be holed up somewhere, just you and me.”
“Oh.”
There was a pause. What could she really even say to all that? She wasn’t prepared for what we were walking into. Stacy was right. And, that…that more than anything, pissed me off. But Leda kept talking, a smile on her face, despite all that shit.
“My family loved you, you know. They all thought you were great.”
I smiled, but didn’t answer. Perhaps sensing how tense I was about this situation, she asked me to prep her some. I explained about my Dad’s career, how he’d become Noe’s right hand man. How it had destroyed what was probably a loving relationship between my parents. And I finished by explaining how things were now between them. I wanted to be open with her, wanted her to know everything about me, even knowing I’d never tell her everything.
She responded with a comment about my mother possibly being fulfilled by her relationship with my dad, comparing it to our kink. “Maybe they worked it out. To each their own, right? I’m sure some of my girlfriends from college would be appalled at the shit I let you do to me, but—”
I cut her off. “Let me do to you? Try again.” The frustration and fear churning in me funneled into the words and I wanted her. I wanted her on her knees, taking whatever I gave her. There was no let about it.
She sucked her fat lower lip into her mouth and started to fidget. Her breathing was shallower and her voice quiet when she answered. “Okay, Boss. If my friends knew about all my new experiences with you and that I want it to happen, again and again, they’d probably think I was crazy. But the point is they can’t judge me—or us—because they aren’t living our lives.”
As much as she was probably making a valid and important point, I could only focus on one part of what she said. “You want it to happen, again and again?” S
he nodded, that sexy apprehension making her eyes go wide.
“Mmm, good. Because you need more.” I grabbed my cell off the dash and one-touch dialed my mom.
“Hiya, sweetheart! Already landed?”
“Hi, Mom. Yep, we just landed.”
“How was the flight? Was Bitsy drunk? How about John? Was it very bad?”
“Of course, Bitsy was drunk. And, yes, John was inappropriate, as always.”
She made a small sound of annoyance before saying, “How did your Leda do? Didn’t scare her off too much, did it?”
“Not too bad. I kept a close eye on her.”
“Well, I hope that’s all you kept on her in the plane. You young people and your mile-high business. Anyway, I can’t wait to meet her. Are you taking her out to dinner first?”
“Yeah, at eight. You should come too.”
“Oh! Honey, that’s so sweet. I’d love to. Where should I meet you?”
“The Club. I’m going to go get us checked in first. Meet us for dinner?”
“Okay, hun. I’ll see you there.”
“Okay, Mom. We’ll see you then.”
“Tell Leda I’m excited to meet her.”
“I’ll tell her. Love you. Bye.”
I dropped my phone and took the next exit to flip a shitty back onto the highway, heading back into town.
Leda looked around in confusion. “Xander, what was all that about? Hotel? I thought we were staying with your parents.”
“It’s been too long since I’ve been inside you.” My mood was lifting as I thought about what I wanted to do to her, and the depravity re
ached my face in a smile I knew probably scared her a little.
* * * *
The check-in process was smooth and we were walking into our room within moments. It still wasn’t soon enough. I ushered her in front of me, just to watch her walk across the space. I started to walk toward her before the door closed and when it slammed home, she startled, but I was right there, on her. I pushed her down on the bed, loving that I took her by surprise. I lay down on her back and stopped her when she tried to turn over.
Everything in me changed. I felt feral, animal. I wanted to tear her apart, just to be able to lick every part of her. I wanted to watch her take everything I had.
“Don’t move, until and unless I tell you to. Ten days, Leda. It’s too long. Never again.” I wasn’t in the same kind of control I usually was. I was on the verge of out of control and it felt so goddamned good. I wanted to let it all go. She must have felt the difference in me, because she was panting, eyes wide, lips parted just a bit.
The fear looked so good on her. “I think I like it when you’re a little scared of me. I think you like it too.” But she was smart and didn’t take the bait.
She didn’t move, except her panting breaths, as I pushed up off her. I wanted to see her ass and found the waistband of her yoga pants. I yanked them down and they got hung up on her hips and ass. What a beautiful fucking thing that is. I pulled harder, until the material gave with a ripping sound. I just pulled them far enough to expose her sexy ass.
I stood back and just looked at her plumpness, her heart-shaped loveliness. “Wiggle your ass for me, little girl.” The words felt sick and wrong on my lips and it got me hard. She shifted back and forth a bit. “Faster. That’s not wiggling.” I gave her a little swat.
