“Only benefit of a private back yard?” Andrei says, as they walk up to the open back door, stepping over the glass as shards of it crunch under their feet. “None of your neighbours can tell when I’m robbing you.”
“Where do we start?” Jennifer asks, looking back towards the back gate quickly as they step into the house. “Where do people keep their best stuff.”
“Two places.” Andrei whispers. “Bedroom. Basement.”
“What about this?” She asks, rushing over to a painting and running her fingers over the canvas. “This has got to be worth money.”
“No, no.” He says, grabbing her hand. “Stolen art is not my business. It’s too easy to track. If we try and sell it, they catch us.”
She nods, looking around as adrenaline rushes throughout her, making her sweat.
Jennifer follows him up the stairs, stopping behind him as he gently pushes doors open, first an office then a bathroom before he stops, smiling and nodding his head in front of the last door on the left.
“Here we go.” He says, grabbing Jennifer’s hand and pulling her inside.
She tries to hide a smile as she walks into Brent Donaldson’s bedroom before walking over to his bed and sitting down on it, rubbing the palms of her hands over his satin sheets.
“You start in the bedside tables and I’ll look in the dresser drawers.” He says, walking over to the dresser by the curtained window.
“Okay.” She nods, getting up from the bed and walking over to the table closest to her before pulling open the drawer.
“Oh, look at this!” She whispers to herself as she pulls out a wallet, fingering through the slots before finding an old twenty. “Not exactly gunna pay the bills, though.”
“Jen.” Andrei calls over to her, waving her over.
She gets up, walking over to him by the dresser, smiling nervously as he twirls his finger for her to spin around.
“For you.” He says, draping a sparkling diamond pendant over her chest as he wraps the gold chain around her neck, securing the clasp in the back.
She giggles, walking up to the dresser as she picks through the gold jewelry.
“I honestly think I want to take this stuff.” She whispers brightly as Andrei leans against the dresser, watching her.
“Sure, take all you want.” He says, smirking. “Just don’t try and pawn it.”
“Are you kidding?” She says, holding her hand out as she stares at the diamond ring on her finger. “I would never get rid of these pretties.”
“Hey,” He whispers, walking over to the closet. “Maybe there’s something in here…”
He slides open the slotted closet door before getting to his knees and digging in a pile of towels on the floor.
“Fucking bingo.” He says, waving her over. “Always check for a safe in the back of the closet, what did I fuckin’ tell you!”
“How do we open a safe?” She asks, running over before watching Andrei place his hand on the handle.
“Oh, my God!” He gasps, shaking his head as he easily pulls open the door. “Dude couldn’t invest in a real fucking safe?”
She gulps, her heart fluttering and her stomach turning as Andrei reaches in.
“Look who’s getting paid.” Andrei says, smirking as he hands her a stack of wrapped bills.
She stares at the pile of cash in her hands as Andrei hands her another.
“What you want to bet this piece of shit was evading taxes?” Andrei asks, sucking on his teeth as he shakes his head while pulling out stack after stack of bills.
Jennifer chuckles, wiping her tears with the back of her hand as Andrei hands her more and more.
“Do you pay a lot of taxes, Andrei.” She jokes as she reaches into the closet to grab a pillow case before beginning to stuff the money inside.
“Jennifer.” He says, turning back to look at her before helping her pile the stacks into the pillow case, too. “I’m not the one pretending like I do. What the hell, don’t make this about me!”
Her feet float as her and Andrei rush down the stairs and out of the back door before they hurry across the yard.
Jennifer pulls open the side door of the van, tossing the money in the backseat before getting into the passenger side.
“Hold on. Just one last thing.” Andrei says, walking around to the back of the van before opening up the tailgate door.
Jennifer watches, slowly stepping out from the passenger’s seat as she sees him pull the spare can of gas out from the back of the van.
“Come with me.” He says, walking past her as he walks back into the yard.
“What are you doing with that, Andrei?” She asks, following him into the backyard. “We gotta go.”
She watches as he rushes into the house before he begins pouring the gasoline on the floors, trailing it back outside.
“Are we actually going to…” She asks, her voice trailing off as she watches him throw the empty gas can against the broken backdoor before he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a book of matches.
He pulls the match against the grain on the back, sparking it lit, before handing her the flame.
“Jennifer.” He says, pointing towards the house. “The honor’s all yours.”
She hesitates, her chest heaving as she looks to Andrei, his dark eyes comforting her before she tosses the match onto the trail of gas.
The world stops around her as she watches the gasoline light up like dominos as the dancing fire engulfs the house.
“Come on.” Andrei says, wrapping his hand around hers as he pulls her from her stupor. “Time to go.”
She nods, looking back as she hears a window crack as they step out of the back gate.
Chapter 18
“I’m glad you’re doing okay, dad.” She smiles into the phone as she leans against the balcony, the breeze blowing through her hair as the sunshine beams down on her skin. “Yes, we’re doing fine, too. There was a lizard in our bathtub when we checked in! It was pretty gross.”
She smiles deeper, biting her bottom lip as she feels Andrei come up behind her and wrap his hands around her waist.
“Did you remember to put the burritos in the freezer once they cooled?” She asks, giggling as Andrei reaches up to unbutton the buttons on her loose, lace, white pool cover. “I know, I know, I’m just asking. I worry about you, you know.”
She turns around, leaning against Andrei’s sun-kissed chest.
“Okay, well if you need anything at all, just call and I’ll do what I can, okay, dad?” She says as Andrei grips her hand and tries to pull her off the balcony. “Okay, love you, too… Bye.”
She hangs up her phone, laughing as she steps into their hotel room before placing the mobile on the round table beside the window.
“We’re spending more time in the bedroom than on the beach, Andrei…” She whispers as she runs the palm of her hand over Andrei’s solid pecs.
“What else is there to do on vacation?” He asks, slowly pulling her thin blouse off of her shoulders, letting it fall to the floor.
He reaches behind her neck, untying the strings holding her bikini top up before letting the soft fabric slink down her chest as he reaches around her back and unties the band.
She pulls him over to the bed, smiling coyly as she pushes him down to the mattress.
Andrei moans as he feels Jennifer’s palms press against his thighs as she drags them up to his waist.
She unties the knot at his waist as she massages over his stiffening meat before pulling down his loosened trunks, allowing his cock to pop free.
He moans, gripping the sheets as she wraps her fingers around his shaft as she drags her tongue along the rim of his head before sucking the tip into her mouth.
Jennifer presses her lips tightly against his shaft as she sinks him down her throat before pulling her head back up and swirling her tongue over the tip.
She smiles, licking her lips as Andrei pulls her up into his lap before rolling her over onto her back.
; “I want you so bad…” He whispers to her, his voice low and trembling as he kicks off his swimming shorts.
He pulls down her bikini bottoms, dragging them over her tanned flesh and pulling them down her legs before tossing them across the room.
Jennifer gasps, giggling as Andrei pushes her knees apart before grabbing her hips and pulling her closer to him.
He positions himself between her legs as he paws at his cock, pumping his palm up and down over the shaft as he nears closer to her.
“Oh, Andrei…” She moans as she feels his silky tip thread up and down between her soaking lips before he presses his thickness into her entrance, stretching her.
She wraps her arms around his back, pulling him closer to her as his hips rock them back and forth as he drags himself in and out of her aching sex.
Jennifer moans out as she feels Andrei’s cock swell inside of her as he grunts into her shoulder, bucking erratically as he spills his seed.
She pants as he falls down beside her, his chest heaving as he rolls onto his back before stretching his arms above his head.
“Can we please go to the beach now, Andrei?” She whispers to him, crawling up beside him and rubbing the palm of her hand over his chest.
“Beach now?” He asks, sitting up slightly to look at the pink and golden sky as the sun sets over the water.
He rolls onto his side, surrounding her with his warmth as he lets his head fall back onto the pillow as he closes his eyes, a small smirk upturning his lips as he pulls her up to his body, holding her there tightly.
“I’d much rather just lay here… with you.”
