Se connecterColt’s eyes were fixed on mine, so dark they made my knees shake. And then he touched me. “I had a treat for you.” he leaned in close.The heel of my boot hit the bed and I stopped.“What is it?” I swallowed as his hand moved to cradle my neck from behind. Trapped between him and the bed like this, the heat from his chest burned against mine, and the metallic smell of his wound flooded my lungs, intensifying my depraved arousal.“Fuck.” I murmured when he leaned into my neck. “WAS,” he whispered in my ear. “You lost the right to my treat when you made an ill, exhausted man get up.”I stepped back with a frown, temporarily forgetting there was no more space between me and the bed, and I toppled right onto the bed.He was on me immediately. “You’re not going to tease me, are you?” I turned my head to the side, cheek on bed covers that felt like clouds, panting as the tip of his nose ran along the sensitive skin on my neck. “I can get away with anything as long as I subdue you, was
My shoulders were quivering when Colt yanked me down, and laid me flat across his thighs.The first smack made my teeth slam, and a jarring pain reverberated round my body. I tasted blood.“You’re OK, baby?” His voice was uncertain.“Again.” I hissed, my face tight as I stared at the outline of a laughing face on the opposite wall, gold teeth smiling at me, taunting me.Thwack! The sharp crack of palm against skin echoed around the bedroom and my body arched like a bow away from Colt's thighs, the first tear rolling down my cheek. The pain was a blinding sting, and my ass felt raw. But his forearm clamped me down, pinning my waist down like a vice.“More?”“Don’t stop.” And he didn’t till my ass cheeks were hot and raw, and I rolled off him to the floor. I lay on my back as sitting was not an option, my arm over my face as my breaths came in heavy, my vision clearing. “Did you try therapy?” Colt placed his elbow on his knees, leaning down with those hulking shoulders to stare at h
Colt’s eyes widened, unblinking as he stared at me. “Yes,” I smiled, feeling the first signs of mental exhaustion. “The very product that made Quivers cooperation into the father of tech was a stolen idea. Your father stole it.” Colt looked too shocked to speak, for the second time in one day. He had the same look as when I told him about the chip in my head hours ago. His reaction was a green flag though. If he appeared so horrified, it could only mean he knew the significance of this to my family, and would not want to keep robbing us of it.“Why did your family never sue?” He asked now, and I chuckled. “With what evidence? My uncle died in that war and his sisters were too young to know or do anything about it. Your father wiped off all evidence when he launched Quivers and the only evidence we have that Lawrence Auclair was actually the mastermind of the nanobot is his diary. What court would take that?”Colt sighed now, picking up his cutlery again with limp fingers. “There w
“OK.” I finally accepted.“One more thing.” Colt caressed his knee as I stared up at him.“There will be a sudden disruption at the meeting. Don’t fret over it,” he said, and I felt a creeping feeling of unease. Why did he sound like this was our final conversation?“What’s the nature of this disruption?”“I cannot tell you. To avoid any suspicions, your surprise has to be genuine,” he replied.“I can be a really good actress.” I frowned, and that earned me a smile. “I should know.” Came his response, just as the doorbell rang.“Olivia,” Colt said gently as I rose from where I had been squatting beside me the whole time. When our eyes met, he nodded towards the walk-in closet. “You’ll find some things for yourself in there.”My brows furrowed, but I went into his closet anyway, and scanned the rack of clothes. There was nothing that looked like mine, and I was turning around with a confused pout when my eyes fell on the stand-alone armoire to the far right.Eyes narrowed in curiosi
My black dress was all bloodied when I straightened up with the crocodile shears at exactly the two-hour mark since we got here.Colt stood up for the first time, walked over and stopped beside me as we started down at Norio’s dick.“Looks like a circumcision.” His voice was low as his eyes took in the pale, flayed flesh on the now unconscious Norio. He had passed out one minute in. “That’s one neat job,” Colt said, and I turned to see him watching me. I stepped back, suddenly weirded out and uncomfortable in this attic, with the rising sun showing every detail of the white room.The entire place was painted purely in white, and even the floors were white marble, which made the tiniest hints of color visible. And right now, there were more than hints of red.There was blood and goo everywhere, squishy on the plastic sheeting covering the floor, sticky and clinging to every torture tool I used, and even my gloves. I walked away from Colt, peeling my gloves off.I did not need to as
OLIVIA My eyes darted towards Colt to gauge how impressed he was, but his face was dark and guarded, the way it had been since that basement.I missed the old Colt whose eyes mirrored his emotions. Norio continued to shriek at the scrambling rodents locked in his steel suit, as I made another trip to the work table. There, my hand rummaged through the wood and leather box, and closed around a blow torch with a large nozzle.“Ho, ho.” Norio screamed wide-eyed, “Don’t bring that near me. Please don’t.”I could have spat. How much more of a hypocrite could one person be? It had not even been seventy-two hours since I was in his position, screaming for mercy as he and Dean treated me like beasts.“Fuck you.” I closed on him and turned the torch on. Blue flames leaped out, licking at the steel of the suit and the rodents went crazy, squeaking, continuous thuds as they bumped against the suit, trying to flee the heat.This went on for several minutes, until Norio lost his voice from scr
