He laughed. “Yeah, she does seem a little over—”
“Here you are!” a man called out as he stepped through the door. “We thought…” He stared at Kami. “Well…” He smiled at her. “Hello!”
Kami stared. He was tall, blond and had the lightest blue eyes she’d ever seen.
“I’m Vince. I’m sort of Taylor’s sidekick.” He laughed. “Sorta like The Boy Wonder to Batman?” he snickered and motioned to the room with his outstretched arms. “This is just like Gotham, complete with villains and intrigue.” He took her hand up and kissed it.
Kami laughed at the smooth old-world gesture. “And, you’re sure you’re not a villain?”
Vince looked as though he were entranced and kept holding her hand while caressing her palm. “Of course, and I would save you any day of the week!”
Taylor stood still and glared at the outrageous flirting.
“Wow!” Vince continued to peer at Kami’s face. “Where did you find such an exotic beauty?”
“Back home.” Taylor’s voice remained emotionless.
“You don’t mean she’s your sister?” Vince asked with shock in his voice.
“No, she’s not my sister,” he answered with an edgy tone.
Seemingly infatuated, Vince grinned and continued to hold her hand. “Can I ask who she is?”
Taylor stood still and mute.
“Is she your fiancé or something?” He winked at Kami. “Cause every guy is gonna move in, if she isn’t.”
“Move in?” Taylor asked.
“Yeah, I mean…man. Just look at her!” Vince laughed.
Kami pulled her hand from his. “I’m—”
“That’s exactly who she is.” Taylor stepped up next to her.
Kami gulped and her eyes shot up to Taylor’s face.
Taylor possessively put his arm around her shoulders. “It just happened, you know?”
“Yeah like really sudden.” Kami glared up at Taylor.
Vince stepped back. “So, this is why you disappeared off the radar!” He chuckled wickedly. “Shoulda known it was over a babe. Well, in that case, we can talk later about what you missed.”
Taylor nodded as he kept his arm protectively around Kami’s shoulder.
The door closed and Kami shoved her elbow into his ribs.
“Oww!” He pulled away.
“What did you say that for?” she shouted.
“I don’t know!” He rubbed his ribs. “I just wanted to protect you, I guess.”
“From what?” She batted her eyes furiously.
He turned away. “From guys like that mother fucker!”
Kami laughed.
At her spontaneous laughter, he spun back around.
“I can take care of myself.”
“It’s just that I don’t know these people either, you know?”
Kami was still chuckling. “Well, if we were back home, as you called it? You could’ve just chucked a bone spear at him.”
He stared at her and saw the twinkle in her eyes. “Or a good old fashioned Indian knife-fight might do the trick.”
“So, what now?” Kami felt a flutter in her stomach, then looked away from his smile and his eyes.
Taylor looked troubled and released a heavy breath. “I want to see where I live.”
“Oh? And how are we going to accomplish that?”
“I will just ask if they can have a driver take me home?” Taylor replied in a distracted tone as he glanced out of the high window.
“It might work.” She shrugged.
Bel Aire, California
The driver opened the limo door. Kami stepped out and Taylor followed.
His eyes rose up to the three-story Bel Aire home.
Kami stood and gawked.
“Is everything all right?” The driver queried at their stock-still trances.
“Oh, yes. It’s just good to be home.” Taylor nodded and took Kami’s arm.
They stepped in and the foyer stretched out before them. “This is a fucking mansion!” Taylor seemed to gasp the words out while his voice echoed off the wide area of luxurious space.
Kami just nodded with her dark eyes rounding in her face.
“I am single, right?” he asked as he stared all around. “I mean, why did I need all this God Dammed space?”
Kami chuckled.
Startled at the laugh, he looked over at her.
“They say when someone over compensates?” she teased.
His brows wrinkled up and he took a step back. “I assure you that I measure up, dammit!”
Kami burst out with hilarious laughter.
Taylor blinked at her and stared to chuckle. “Well, I may have been making up for something?”
With a leftover giggle, Kami wiped the tears from her eyes and moved into the enormous living room. “I wonder if you have any servant—”
“Sir!” a woman called from the stairs.
Taylor looked up.
A redheaded woman stood at the top.
Taylor and Kami stood frozen yet again, as the woman smiled down at them.
“She looks just like…?” Kami’s eyes widened.
Taylor’s mouth had dropped open and he snapped it shut. “Yeah, like Madeline.” His voice slowed as the color drained from his face.
The woman came down the stairs, her expression full of concern. “Mr. Scott?”
Kami took his arm. “Taylor, are you okay?”
“Who are you?” He gulped and peered up at the woman.
“What?” She blinked her eyes at the question.
“What do you do here?” He stepped closer.
Wearing a puzzled expression, she looked at both of them. “I run the household.”
“What is your name?” he snapped the question at her.
“Is this a joke?”
Still looking stunned, he shook his head at her.
“Victoria Lansford,” she announced and drew her shoulders up.
He glanced from her back to Kami.
Kami crossed her arms over her chest.
“I’m sorry to sound so rude.” Taylor shook his head. “I was in an accident and lost my memory.”
Victoria looked shocked. “Are you okay, now?”
Taylor continued to shake his head with disgust. “Apparently, I wasn’t okay even before the accident.” He turned away. “Where is the fucking bar?” he almost growled the question.
“Keep walking, the den is on the right.” Victoria stared after him.
“Were you and he close?” Kami continued to stare at the woman who resembled the leader’s wife so uncannily.
Victoria batted her blue eyes. “Just a professional relationship. But…” She sighed audibly. “I did try to get his attention many times and he just...”
Kami’s brows drew up.
“I hope I’m not fired,” Victoria whispered as she watched Taylor disappear down the hall.
Kami suddenly realized what Taylor had wanted, and who he’d wanted. She let out a brittle laugh. “No, I think you’re safe.” She went to the front door and turned back to gaze at Madeline’s double. “Tell him that…” She glanced over at the empty hall. “He has all the help he needs, and I went home.” She shut the door behind her.
CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE
MADELINE
Malibu, California
The house was dark and closed up. Madeline rifled through her purse to see where the key was.
“Want me to break in?” Dev teased from behind her.
“No! It’s here somewhere, and if you break in? The security company will come and arrest your ass.” Madeline squinted at the key ring she held up. “And I would hate to have such a nice ass end up in prison. What a waste!” She pressed a few buttons on the key pad next to the door and after a loud beep sounded, she felt his hands grasp each of her cheeks through the skirt she wore.
“Mmm, I guess when it comes to a nice ass, you’re an expert, all right.” Dev groaned aloud as he squeezed her butt with a firm grip
.
She giggled, pulled from his grasping, and went through the door. Reaching out to the wall, she turned the lights on.
“Wow!” Dev whistled as he stared around. “Swanky!”
Madeline snickered.
Dev looked surprised and turned to look at her. “What?”
“Swanky?” She spluttered with laughter.
His eyes narrowed. “Are you laughing at me, woman?”
“Yes, my Lord Brave.” She giggled again.
“Where is the bed in this swanky house?” He shut the door behind her.
She threw her head back and laughed uproariously.
Dev continued to look serious and scooped her up. “I’ll teach you to laugh at me!” he teased with a growling voice.
At the sexy growl, she shivered. “But there’s no back cave here, my savage master.” Her voice was pitched with mock-terror.
Dev swung her around and went down the hall. “No, but there must be a wall I can pin your sweet, swanky ass to!”
Madeline’s skin tingled with the thought of being pinned by his body against any wall. The familiar rush of excitement pulsed through her body.
He kicked the bedroom door open with a loud resolute crash and her laughter grew louder.
Dev set her down and shut the door behind him.
Madeline was still giggling. “There’s no one else here, you know?”
Dev suddenly looked serious as he tugged his shirt off. “I don’t want anyone to hear you scream.”
Tingling all over from just the tone of his voice, she peeked her tongue out and swiped her lips. “Is that a threat?”
His expression remained entirely sever and serious as he unbuttoned his jeans. “Nope.” He pulled them down. “That is a promise.”
Madeline stared at his erection as his cock sprung out from his jeans. “Mmm,” she almost growled.
Looking startled, his eyes shot up. “What was that?”
“A hungry growl?”
He stepped closer and grabbed her arms. “What are you hungry for, little Maddy?”
His purring voice floated down over her and felt like a wave of sensuous heat. “You and everything that you do for me.”
Dev tugged her blouse up and off her, and then peeked his tongue out mimicking her licking action. “What do you like the most?” He moved her back.
“My favorite?” She swallowed heavily as his hard body met her soft skin.
Remaining mute, he nodded and kept moving her backward.
The wall came up against her backside. “Um, you mean a particular act or…”
He pressed his face close to hers. “An exact satisfaction that I give you, yes.”
Madeline looked into those dark smoldering eyes which she hoped to see beyond old age. “I like it when you—when you use your tongue on me,” she whispered.
Raising a brow, he reached down and unsnapped her jeans. The pop from the button seemed loud in the room. With a groan, he slipped his fingers into her panties.
With a gasp, she felt his index finger meet with her clit button instantly.
Dev gave her that wicked gorgeous smile of his.
Oh, he’s a devil, an angel and a god; and when he smiles like this? He’s more powerful than he knows. She gulped for air.
As though he were really curious, he tilted his head at her. “Tell me, exactly.” He stroked her with his finger while peeling her panties and jeans down with his other hand.
She was suddenly embarrassed, the old stiff Madeline coming to the fore again. She rolled her eyes.
Dev jerked the jeans from her legs as he lifted her from the floor.
“Ooh!” she called out.
Swift-like, he raised her up against the wall. “You will tell me.” His eyes locked with hers as he opened her thighs.
“Okay, okay. Um…when you—tongued me back at the lodge when I was paralyzed?”
He nodded at her and lifted her higher.
“I never came like well…like that!”
“You liked it when I lapped you up as you came?”
At the very lurid admission, she nervously swallowed again and nodded.
Abruptly, Dev swung her over to the dresser and sat her down. He opened her thighs wide and knelt down.
Madeline dropped her gaze to his face.
With that usual confidence in his sexual powers of seduction, he peered up at her with a wicked gleam in his eyes while his fingers opened the folds of her pussy. He used his index finger to briskly stroke her.
Madeline squirmed and could feel the cold dresser beneath her butt cheeks, while his finger made hot slices over her labia.
Dev moved his face closer. “Do you like it when I do this?” He gave her open button a long, heavy lick with his warm tongue.
“Oh!” she gasped.
Tugging her forward to the edge of the dresser, he gazed up at her again. “Or did you like it better when I sucked on you?” He lowered his hot mouth and latched onto her entire clit.
“Oh, my God!” she gasped again, as his blazing hot mouth took her swollen clit in.
With seeming enjoyment, he continued to suckle her, licking her vivaciously while sticking his finger into her pussy and pumping her with it.
Helpless from the oral sensations, Madeline grew wetter and wetter as she fought for air.
He was literally devouring her with his mouth as she panted and squirmed. “Dev, Dev, stop!”
After a moment more, he pulled his face away.
Her body pulsed and jerked as her thigh muscles clenched. “Oh—oh.”
Smiling again, he swiped his tongue over his lips. “I remember it now. Sweet and—”
“—Salty," Madeline finished the familiar expression.
“I remember the cave. You were tied to the wall as I…he tongued you.”
Overcome with heat and sensuous shivers, she nodded her head her panting still loud. “I’ve never been done that way before.”
His warm dark eyes seemed to glimmer at her. “He fights to get out—to have you.”
Madeline grew very still as he never talked about the Brave like this before.
His eyes seemed to spark for a second with that blue light she remembered so well. “Dev?”
He shook his head and closed his eyes for a long moment. Glancing up at her, he moved closer. “I promised a wall pinning, if I remember correctly,” he teased.
Madeline was edgy and confused by the fact that he seemed to fight something. She opened her mouth to ask about the Brave.
Dev hefted her up and turned her around.
Shaken up by the rapid moves and mood changes, she took a deep breath as she felt his hands on her hips.
“I like the way your bedroom is decorated.”
Madeline blinked her eyes with further confusion… the decorating? “What?”
Tilting her ass higher, he bent her over the dresser.
Gazing up, she saw her face in the mirror over the dresser. Oh, he’s talking about the mirror? Her gaze shot over to Dev’s reflection.
His eyes were dark with passion again. “I wanna see your face while I plunder you from behind.” With a direct and smooth aim, he forcefully shoved his hard and ready cock into her.
Sucking in her breath, she felt it go all the way up in one smooth hard thrust. Her eyes widened and her body grew rigid with immediate pleasure.
“Yes, look at how that makes you feel,” he purred low at her and gave her a couple of sweet languid strokes with his cock.
From the glorious feeling of the super sexy sliding, Madeline closed her eyes.
“No, Maddy, look.”
She couldn’t, she was embarrassed again. “I can’t it’s too—”
Dev pumped her hard and fast, cutting off her words.
“Unh,” she groaned with delight and his hands reached around grasping her nipples, pinching them.
Her eyes popped open at the force of his actions.
Her body convulsed with delight and sensual pleasure as she gazed at his ref
lection and saw the blue light in his eyes as his cock grew harder and longer inside of her. “Mmm!” she moaned and looked at her reflection. She saw his fingers flicking her nipples and her juices seemed to seep from her pussy as the heat and friction built from his strokes into her. Her helpless panting grew loud as the force of his plunging grew. It feels so good, she thought, how glorious! Her body shook terribly as she began to come.
Dev avidly watched her face in the mirror. “So hot when you come on me like that. Dripping that sweet honey all over me, so wet and so warm…”
With his erotic moves, the heated friction in her wet pussy and his sex-laced words, her muscles clenched all over as she quaked with an enormous climax. “Ahh!” she screamed out, as her body was rocked with waves of ecstasy and she felt his hot cum flow into her. Her thigh muscles grew rigid from the overwhelming orgasm as he pulled her back while stretching her torso out.
“Look at how sexy you are when you come,” he purred into her ear. “Come on my cock, Maddy…”
Madeline was looking and could not believe how she looked while climaxing, shuddering and gasping helplessly as she stared. Her reflection showed her body stretching out in a sensual arch as her belly tightened with a sweet, wild pang of ecstasy.
“So sweet,” he whispered as he held onto her breasts and smoothed his hands over them.
She released an enormous breath of air and went completely limp.
Dev chuckled in her ear. “See? I promised you would scream for me. ”
Madeline laughed breathlessly.
After a really steamy shower, where Dev pinned her against the tiled walls several times, they walked along the Malibu beachside and Madeline was struck by how normal they seemed as lovers walking the beach. Normal was not what the relationship had been all this time, when you’re married to a myth, a supernatural person revered by so many. But here she was, back in her old territory with the man she’d fallen in love with and actually married. She thought of pinching herself to see if it was all real.
Was he real? He was and then again…not. She thought of all the hot sex they’d just had. He’s real enough! She still needed to resolve the different worlds though. Hers, Dev’s and the Warrior’s world as well.
Dev pulled her down to the sand. “Let’s watch the sunset together.”
