His Hunger for her sweet innocence Chapter 41: Before the storm
Samantha's POVEarlier that day…It was almost closing time at work, and Chloe, Maya, and I were already packing our things."How about a couple of drinks at The Foundry tonight?" Maya said absentmindedly, zipping up her bag.Chloe gave me a quick glance and burst out laughing.Maya looked up, completely confused. "Chloe?""Maya, you are so clueless it's cute," Chloe said, continuing to laugh."Samantha, what the hell is wrong with your friend?" Maya asked, throwing her hands up."I mean... she's your friend too," I pointed out with a grin."Y'all be shady as fuck," Maya muttered, rolling her eyes.Chloe finally cut her laugh short, leaning back against the front desk with a knowing smile fixed squarely on me."I could use some drinks, but not at The Foundry," I said, lifting my bag onto my shoulder."Well, I heard there's a new spot in town. Let's go there," Chloe suggested, pulling her jacket on."Good thing I drove," I said as we walked toward the door.The door opened before we co
His Hunger for her sweet innocence Chapter 40: Steels and ashes
Rick’s POV"Get back! Everyone clear the tree line, now!" my voice boomed across the grass, cutting through the festival music like a siren.I didn't wait for questions. I handed the little boy off to a pale, frantic mother who had come running from the food stalls, shoving them both behind Bear’s massive frame.“Keep an eye on your child next time, okay?“Yes sir. Thank you”“You're welcome” I said moving along."Keep the crowd moving! Do not let anyone near this side of the park!" I ordered Bear, who immediately barked commands to Jax and Viper to form a perimeter around the families.Within seconds, Chase, Kepter, and Tracker were at my side near the weeping willow. The heavy shadow of the tree felt like an open grave. On the bench sat the brown package, its faint, mechanical click-tick-click echoing in the quiet air.Chase dropped to his knees, pulling a small tactical flashlight from his pocket. Before he joined the club, Chase had served a year in Army ordnance and explosive dis
His Hunger for her sweet innocence Chapter 39: Quiet before the blast
Rick's POV "Still no word from them?""None, boss," Kepter answered, standing by the edge of the heavy oak table."Hmm... interesting," I murmured, my index finger slowly tracing the rim of my glass, watching the amber liquid swirl against the crystal."We all know the Jackals like to play dirty," Chase chimed in, leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed. "So their silence certainly means something."I glanced up. That was probably the longest sentence Chase had uttered since he walked through the door today. He wasn't wrong, though. Don Pedro and his Jackals didn't just go quiet out of goodwill—a quiet enemy was usually an enemy already setting a trap."We hold the event as planned," I said, my voice carrying a low, gravelly steel that instantly locked the room into attention. "Get everything ready. I need all of you surrounding the town square until it's wrapped up. Make sure every single corner is secure. The safety of our town is our priority.""Consider it done," Kept
His Hunger for her sweet innocence Chapter 38: In plain sight
Samantha’s POV"Girl, you know I'm dying to know about last night," Chloe whispered to me as we walked out of our team meeting. The project campaign for Peter Rossi—our mysterious, high-profile investor—had officially kicked off, and my brain was running on a mix of coffee and residual electricity from this morning."Well... nothing happened."The second those words left my mouth, Chloe stopped dead in her tracks and grabbed my arm."Girl, what are you doing?" I asked, suppressing a smirk like I didn't know I was driving her crazy. I mean, I wasn't entirely messing with her—technically, nothing beyond a whole lot of soul-baring and a killer kiss had happened."What do you mean nothing happened?" Chloe demanded, her eyes wide."Just what I said." I shrugged, unable to keep a wide, stupid smile from spreading across my face."Why in God's name are you smiling? There is nothing funny about this!" she gasped, looking at me with such deep, dramatic concern that it only made the whole situ
His Hunger for her sweet innocence Chapter 37: Letting you in
Samantha’s POV"I trust you."Those three words slipped past my lips before I could overthink them. But I meant every single syllable."When I was little, my dad used to drink a lot," I said quietly, looking down at my hands. "Whenever he drank like that and came back home, he would hit my mum... then me."I stopped for a moment, the ghost of those old fears tightening my throat.Rick moved toward me and handed me the warm mug."Thanks," I murmured, taking it from him. The heat radiating off the ceramic warmed my cold palms. I took a slow sip, letting the heat settle in my chest."For a long time, I thought that was just how families were. Dysfunctional," I continued, staring into the dark amber liquid. "But when I grew older, I realized it wasn't. One night, he drank so much he fell into a ditch and drowned."I took another sip of the tea. It really was calming, taking the edge off the sharp tremors in my hands."My mum died a year later. Turns out she had been battling cancer on her
His Hunger for her sweet innocence Chapter 36: Raw and sensational
Rick’s POVMoments later, I started to feel her gentle, steady breath against my skin. She had fallen asleep on me.My world could be crashing down around us at this very moment, and I wouldn't give a damn—because I was right where I wanted to be.Sliding my arms under her knees and back, I lifted her off the couch as carefully as I could. She stirred slightly, burying her face into the crook of my neck, but didn't wake.I carried her down the hall and laid her down softly on my bed. As her head hit the pillow, she made the sweetest, softest sound in her sleep.I pulled the heavy duvet over her shoulders and stood up. I was just about to step away and give her space when her small hand reached out, wrapping around my wrist."Stay with me," she whispered, her eyes fluttering open lightly.I leaned over her, looking down into her dark, heavy eyes. "I don't think that's a good idea, Sam. I'm gonna lie on the couch."I turned to leave, but she tugged at my shirt again, her grip surprising
