Punishing the Princess

by Kailin Gow

Damnit, I still wanted her. So much. I reached up to bring her face down to mine to suck on her luscious lips, to devour her mouth.

  A shudder came through me as my body clenched and tightened before I climaxed.

  Her face contorted into pleasure as she climaxed at the same time I exploded into her.

  “What did you do?” she punched my chest, and I saw stars before I nearly blacked out.

  “I sent them a recording of me having sex with you. Only vocal not video,” I admitted.

  “Then they thought I was here having sex with you right after River called me, not before,” Summer said.

  “I couldn’t change the time of the recording, and they couldn’t tell when it was made.”

  “Shows I was heartless when River counted on me to be there after he called me.”

  “But what about you losing your virginity to me?” I asked.

  “River can’t complain. His punishment for bullying me was to go down on me but he couldn’t penetrate me. He made up his own punishment. I didn’t. So…”

  “Me taking your virginity wasn’t really that harsh for him?” I asked.

  “He knew what my relationship with him really was, but he wanted to make more of it,” Summer said. “The question is why did you record us in the act, and why did you send it to River? Do you get your kicks luring women to have sex with you just to tape it and use it to blackmail people?”

  I have never been confronted like this before. I had never had someone who I’ve targeted come and fight me face-to-face like Summer just did.

  “I did it because you became his girlfriend,” I said. “I didn’t want to care before, but after we became intimate, you turned around and became his girlfriend, Summer. It became personal, and I wanted to get River and bring him down. At the same time, I wanted to punish you for playing with my affections. I confessed to liking you a lot and wanting you to be mine, but you ended up playing with me and River. But your heart’s always been set on Nat.”

  “That’s a sorry ass excuse for what you’ve done,” Summer said.

  Summer got off me and turned to leave.

  “Wait,” I called. “What about us? I want to still be with you. I want you.”

  She turned towards me and stuck up her middle finger. “Fuck you, Dante. As far as we’re concern, there isn’t an ‘us’.”

  Then she was out the door.

  I couldn’t stop staring after her. What a woman.

  Strong.

  Chapter 10

  Summer

  I wasn’t going to let emotions get in the way of dealing with Dante.

  Who knew someone as polished, pretty, and well put together on the outside could be so low, dirty and dark on the inside.

  Unfortunately, my body was attracted to that kind of dirty and dark complexity. I couldn’t help craving him sexually. It was like he had unleashed a part of me that was depraved and deviant. Because he was so depraved and deviant. He was not normal.

  And his heart. He had a mechanical heart, not a real one, that kept him alive. Did it also keep him from feeling love and warmth? Did it make him less human?

  Dante was competitive, but he didn’t strike me as the type of guy who would get rid of his competition by hitting below the belt. Maybe jealousy of River made him go off the deep end.

  But who knew. Dante could very well be that kind of guy.

  And now that I knew who I was dealing with, what was I going to do about River and Lincoln?

  I was so tense and stressed out, I wanted to go for a run along the beach just to get it all out.

  I parked Aunt Sookie’s SUV, got out and went to the door.

  Aunt Sookie had already opened the door and was waiting for me.

  “How did it go?” she asked, her eyes full of concern.

  “Well, I learned that I’m no longer River’s girlfriend or even friend. Lincoln is back to being Lincoln. And Dante…”

  Aunt Sookie’s eyes narrowed. “What about Dante?”

  “He was not whom he seemed,” I said. “Better watch your back with him.”

  Her eyes widened. “Why? Did he hurt you?”

  I turned to Aunt Sookie and said, “If I was a real damsel in distress, I would say he did a massive job of it. But I’m not. He barely scratched me.”

  Aunt Sookie nodded. “So what are you going to do, sweetie?” She enveloped me in her arms as she closed the front door behind us.

  “Like I said, he wasn’t what he seemed. I’m going to find out more about him before I decide if I want to have anything to do with him.”

  “Why don’t you just stay away from him, Summer?” she asked. “You’re not telling me any details about what went down, but I get the feeling you don’t feel safe or secure with him. Am I correct? Is this how you feel about him?”

  I nodded.

  “Then stay away from him, Summer. I know he’s become a big deal at Hidden Falls High and practically owned the school. If he makes you feel uncomfortable and unsafe, I will not hesitate to help you change schools. No niece of mine will endure any kind of bullying or harassment from anyone at school again or help me God, I will invoke the wrath of the redhead on them.”

  I laughed. Aunt Sookie was a fiery redhead and she could definitely fight. Like mom.

  I hugged her. “Thank you Aunt, but I want to handle this myself. It’s good to know I come from such strong stock though.”

  Aunt Sookie flexed her biceps. “Yes we are. And just because we embrace our femininity does not mean we are weak.”

  I smiled as an idea came to mind. “In fact, being feminine and being a woman can very well be our strengths.”

  Aunt Sookie began walking and led me to the kitchen. “Unless you ate right before coming back to the house, you should have dinner.”

  “Well, okay,” I said.

  I sat down at the table and waited for Aunt Sookie to whipped up something for me. Lasagna. And a tall glass of cold milk.

  Of course. My favorite.

  As I ate my dinner, I noticed a movement outside our patio. Some kind of shadow.

  I leaned against the window to look out, taking out a flashlight to point at objects outside. Nothing seemed to be there when I flashed the light across the patio deck.

  Was I hallucinating or was I just beginning to become hyperaware of my surroundings because I was now running on adrenaline?

  I turned my phone off and placed it into a bag of chips.

  Then I looked outside again, flashing my light as I did a sweep with it.

  A black cat ran across the patio deck nearly causing me to jump.

  “What’s out there?” Aunt Sookie asked as she walked by.

  “I thought I saw something,” I said. “Just a cat.”

  Aunt Sookie looked outside the window before closing the blinds. “I think you should get some rest.”

  I finished dinner and washed up. By the time I walked out of the bathroom to the living room, Aunt Sookie was already asleep.

  Chapter 11

  Dante

  I waited until the house was completely quiet and dark before I slipped in through the patio doors.

  Summer and her aunt should be more cautious with their safety and make sure their patio doors had more than just the locks they came with. Anyone who knew how to jiggle a lock can just break in.

  And I wasn’t just anyone. I could break into any place including a high-security tech company…like Donovan Dynamics, Nat Donovan’s company.

  And I did, not that long ago.

  For a high-tech security company that had data file storage and cloud storage to some of the most data-sensitive companies in the world, including government files; Donovan Dynamics needed a foolproof system much stronger than the one they have now. If I could break through their system, then someone who was more specialized than me could hack through their system as well.

  Someone like Nat Donovan.

  He was a genius hacker…a prodigy since childhood. And the actual brains behind his father’s Donovan Dynami
cs companies.

  For me to be able to hack through Donovan Dynamics’ system a few months back, I knew Nat Donovan had not been around Donovan Dynamics to change out and reset an entire system which all security companies do once in a while. Of course for security sake.

  Nat was their security wizard who would set up the near impossible algorithm to secure all the files in Donovan Dynamics’ storage and systems. He must have been too distracted. Too busy to have gone back to San Francisco to change out the system.

  Was it because of Summer?

  Did her luscious lips, curvaceous body and stimulating mind the reason behind Nat not following through with resetting the security system?

  Or was it deliberate?

  Now having been with and tasted what Summer was like, I could believe a lustful hormonal young man like Nat could easily forget all his duties if he was with Summer.

  I almost did.

  But it was deeper. They grew up together and even lived together as kids growing up over the summers at this Malibu beach house.

  I walked into the room Nat and his little brother Drew shared when they stayed here all those years, hoping to find a clue to Nat Donovan.

  There were the typical boy things in the room. Model cars, video games, board games and books. Nothing really stood out.

  Maybe Summer would know. She was close to him, and from some of the conversations I had listened into from when Nat was last attending Hidden Falls High, she was like his confidante. Maybe even best friend.

  Ah Summer. I will always have a soft spot for her. The more I got to know her, the more I admired her.

  The more I fucking want her, too. In my life…in my bed.

  So she was saving herself for Nat, was she? Well, maybe she would get her wish come true.

  I walked into Summer’s room where she was asleep in her bed.

  So beautiful.

  God I wanted to crawl in next to her and hold her. Just hold her.

  But first, she will have to be receptive to me for me to do what I have to do.

  I took out a small metronome and put it on her nightstand. Then I repeated Nat’s name over and over again.

  Until she was whispering his name in her sleep.

  With a snap of my fingers, I commanded her to dream of Nat.

  She was moaning in her sleep, which made me rock hard remembering how she moaned so passionately when I fucked her. God I wanted her now.

  I slipped off my black track suit and crawled into bed to spoon against her, but my eyes widened when I realized she was completely naked.

  Fuck. She was so hot. I was so hard for her now.

  She turned around to face me, moaning as she crawled on top of me, straddling me. With her hand she push down my boxers until my hard-on was out. “Oh Nat,” she moaned. “I want you so badly. I want to taste you so badly.” Her lips were on the tip of me before she mouth took me in, sucking hard.

  I almost lost it when her teeth lightly trailed over my skin.

  Then she was straddling me, taking me deep into her as she rode me slowly at first before she rode me in a frenzy while grabbing her full breasts in each hand to pinch her nipples.

  God that was the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen.

  “Nat,” Summer moaned. “I’ve kept your favorite toy in your room. The one you always liked to play with when you couldn’t think of a move on your chessboard.”

  “Which toy?” I asked pretending to be Nat.

  “Oh you know,” Summer said in her sleep. “Your favorite.”

  “I have so many favorite toys, Summer,” I said pretending to be Nat.

  “Your paper puzzle one,” she said. “It has all your numbers and funny quotes on it. You made it yourself, silly!”

  That must be it.

  Summer was now grinding her core on me, before she bounced up and down on my shaft, still within her.

  Fuck she was killing me with pleasure. I was going to have to explode.

  She rode me so fast and hard that she cried out, “I love you so much, Nat!” before she climaxed and rolled off me.

  I quickly rolled out of bed to finish myself off, not wanting to leave any traces of me on the bed or in her room.

  With a wipe, I wiped her core and even her mouth.

  I stared at her mouth where she had taken all of me in and sucked me dry.

  Would she have done it if she didn’t think I was Nat?

  Suddenly I felt such an explosive rage of jealousy towards Nat.

  Even without being here, she was making love to him.

  Fuck. I didn’t want to be Dante Black at this moment.

  I wanted to be Nat. Summer’s Nat. I wanted that love she had for him so much.

  I couldn’t keep staring at her beautiful face without wanting to fuck her mouth. So I reached over to grab my metronome before going back to Nat’s room to find that paper puzzle toy Summer was talking about in her dreams.

  It was on the top shelf of the book case. And exactly how I pictured it.

  I quickly placed the toy inside my jacket and made my way out of Summer’s house.

  When I finally settled down into my office at my house, I couldn’t stop thinking about how Summer was sucking my dick so hard and so lovingly, dreaming she was sucking Nat’s dick.

  I wanted more of it. I wanted that all the time.

  Maybe I will keep getting that love from Summer.

  If I became Nat.

  Epilogue

  Nat

  The news about Max Millions’ death hit me hard.

  He was River’s grandfather, whom I had met often when I visited River’s family home.

  Although River and my relationship had ended badly because of the way he bullied Summer and then wanted her, we were close. Best guy friends when I was at Hidden Falls High.

  I felt bad for River and wanted to reach out to console him.

  But I couldn’t, especially now that I had identified who was behind Drew and my kidnappings.

  Cole Black of Black Biotechnologies.

  A billionaire through ruthless and sometimes underhanded shady means.

  He was in many different industries besides biotech, but his biggest rival for the most prominent part of his conglomerate was health and wellness, which went hand-in-hand with biotech.

  Was Cole Black behind Max Millions’ sudden death?

  Max Million was the picture of health and the spokesperson for ultimate health and strength before he suffered a heart attack. It didn’t make sense that he would die of a heart attack when he seemed to be so heart-health conscious. He even created a bestselling line of heart-healthy foods that rivaled the largest cereal and breakfast foods brands.

  It was a suspicious death, but Cole Black seemed to have an air-tight alibi during the entire time Max Millions had an heart attack the first time and then a second time when he died.

  Cole Black was stuck in his England, wheel-chaired-bound, having been in a car accident that nearly killed him.

  He could have hired someone to killed Max Millions though.

  Like he had hired those bastards who tried to kill Drew and me when they attempted to kidnapped us.

  As far as children. Cole Black did have a few, but all of them seemed to have died either in childhood or was killed with his wife in some freak accident.

  I scoured the posts and news section of Hidden Falls High to see what was new in the neighborhood and at school.

  I wanted to see what people wrote of River and Lincoln. And mostly of Summer, whom I had followed along from far away.

  There she was…the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen. She was drop dead gorgeous on the outside, a throwback to movie star beautiful like Marilyn Monroe, but it was her inner beauty that was the most beautiful.

  She just became the student advisor for the Board of Trustee. How did she managed to get on the Board in the first place?

  Then there were her in
her volleyball uniform, filling it out like a sexy spokeswoman for the sport. She could even make dreary drab sports uniforms into Playboy Playmate sexy material.

  I missed her.

  I wanted her, but I knew I couldn’t have her. I shouldn’t have her.

  I thumbed through more photos and then came across one that was of a group photo.

  Free Day Celebration photo. A tall, dark, and very good-looking guy was standing next to Summer in the photo. He looked like some model. And he had his hand around Summer’s shoulder.

  It made me instantly see red. He was in a suit and looked like maybe a younger teacher or staff rather than a student. Was this model-looking pretty boy dating Summer? Was he fucking her?

  Who the fuck was he?

  It looked like he had dethroned River too as the most popular and handsome dude at Hidden Falls High.

  And with one look at this guy, you could tell in his body language that he wanted Summer. He was either fucking her or dreaming of fucking her.

  I closed in on the photo of his face. He looked so familiar as though I’ve seen him before.

  But it couldn’t be whom I was thinking about.

  Dante Black, who was the same age as me, and who used to play against me during chess tournaments when we were younger. The son of Cole Black.

  It couldn’t be him at all.

  Dante Black died ten years ago.
