I tried to hug her, but she stiffened. I sighed and hugged her anyway. If she only knew why I couldn’t be there for her today. If she only knew that I had been with her every night and had protected her last night even though she hadn’t known she was in danger. How could I make her see that? “Dominique, did you call the police?” “No. Tim told me not to. I’m a criminal, and I covered it up. What if she died?” “Don’t think about that now, Dominique. You did what you had to do. Tim had a reason for not having you call the police. I understand it. I agree with it. All will be explained to you eventually.”I held her tight and felt her begin to cry again. She finally relaxed into my arms and let me hold her. I picked her up and carried her over to the couch. I sat down and held her against me, stroking her hair. She laid her head on my shoulder, and after a few minutes, she passed out in my arms. I kept stroking her hair as I thought about what I would do to that bitch when I got a h
He looked at her and then at me. I already knew they’d had sex, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if he said it, but Dominique didn’t know I knew. I just watched Dominique to see her reaction if Tim did mention it. I had to know what she was feeling about it. “You and I slept together, Dominique. Roxy thinks I am her property even though I haven’t been with her for a long time. She knows I want you, and that pisses her off. She figured out what we had done because she and Jacob were waiting for me to get home. Jacob decided to give me a good old-fashioned beat down. That’s why I didn’t come to work. Are you happy knowing now? Do you understand why I don’t want to leave you alone?” Dominique looked at me out of the corner of her eye. I tried to school my face to be blank, but I knew it showed the anger I was feeling. Knowing about it didn’t make it any better when talked about. Dominique sighed and leaned back in her chair. She closed her eyes. It seemed she was more worried about what I
“Are you serious?” Dominique asked. “Yes. I’ve never seen you like this, Dominique. If a car brings you this much happiness, then check it out. I like cars, and I collect them. I rarely ever drive them. Starting them up occasionally is all I have ever done with most of them.” “Oh, my God! How could you just let this baby sit here?” Dominique asked incredulously. “Well, again, I like cars and collect them. I usually drive my Mustang. It’s my favorite. Go ahead and check it out. The car is all original. It has barely any miles and was barely driven when I bought it.” I told her. Of course, she didn’t know I had bought it when it first came out. I just liked the look of it. I loved muscle cars. Dominique sat on the driver’s side and touched the wheel. The Pontiac Firebird Trans Am in 1969 was rare to find now, especially in such excellent condition, so she was barely touching it. I wondered what her reaction would be if I let her give it a spin. “Would you like to take it for a te
The ride home was strained, and the only thing said was when I gave her directions back to the house. Once the car was parked, Dominique got out and handed me the key. She walked over to the mustang and got her things out. She was no longer in turmoil. Now she was angry, and that feeling was even more potent than her lust. I opened the door at the end of the garage and started up the steps. When I realized Dominique was not behind me, I turned around and went back down. She was fiddling with her phone and pacing back and forth. It seemed like I was always messing things up with her now. I walked up to her and pulled her against me. I kissed her, but she didn’t kiss me back. I pulled back, and she just looked at me. “I’m sorry, Dominique. I did not mean to hurt you. I don’t want to take advantage of you and then have you come back later on me about it. I told you I would not push you, and I mean to keep that promise.” Dominique stepped away from me as she said, “It is what it is
“It wouldn’t matter if you did since you don’t have anything for me to take it with. Who in the hell has a kitchen with nothing in it? Or a refrigerator that isn’t even on?” Dominique asked. I sat on the edge of the bed. I had not thought about her needing food while I was out for the day. How was I going to explain that away to her? She wouldn’t believe me no matter what I said because it was odd not to have anything in the cabinets or the refrigerator for ordinary people. I hadn’t thoroughly thought through her staying with me. I was only worried about her going upstairs and finding my blood supply. “I’m sorry, Dominique. I have a small refrigerator where I keep my things. I did not think of this when I went to sleep this morning.” “Where were you? I called you, but you didn’t answer. Your car was still here. I had to order delivery and saw it still parked in the garage. I, I went upstairs. I’m sorry, but I was looking for you so I could go to the store and get something. I sa
Once she had looked me over, I pressed my body into hers and kissed her again. She moved her hands over my back and traced some of the scars. I shivered slightly as I slid my hand in between her legs. Then, I caressed her as my mouth found her breasts. She moved her hand, caressed me at first, then gripped me. I groaned for her, and she began to move her hand faster as she squeezed me. I had to take her hand away before I lost myself. Finally, I knelt on the floor in front of her. I spread her legs a little wider and placed my mouth over her. She gripped my shoulders as her legs started to shake a little. I licked her folds and made my way inside to her clit. I reached around and cupped her butt as she pushed herself into my face. When I plunged my fingers into her, she cried out. This caused me to start sucking her clit and my fingers to move even faster. I loved the reaction she had to me. Dominique pushed her fingers through my hair as she rode my tongue and fingers. Then, I kiss
She pushed her hands into my hair and pulled me down for a kiss. She got so tight around me as her hands curled in my hair and pulled. I moved as fast as I could as she clenched me hard. She screamed her pleasure as her body jerked up off the bed. Her reaction and her body clenching me caused my release. I couldn’t stop for a few minutes because it was so intense and pleasurable. She was staring into my eyes when she came, making the pleasure even more intense. Her pupils had widened, and I could see every speck in them. I finally slowed down and stopped. I kissed her as I put her legs down. I rolled onto my side and pulled her against me. I loved feeling her body against mine as her breathing slowed. She threw her arm and leg over me and snuggled as close as possible. She drifted off to sleep, and I lay there just holding her. I watched as she slept peacefully. I knew I had to take her home as I had promised, but I didn’t want to. I wanted her to stay with me. I wanted to tell h
We got into the car, and I watched out of the rearview mirror and saw Jacob slinking through the woods as we drove out. He followed us a good way before I started seeing houses and lost sight of him. Where had his car been? If I had seen a car parked anywhere on Dominique’s property, I would not have gone down there. So it had to have been Jacob. Whomever it was had been powerful. If not him, then who? When we got to the store, Dominique went in and looked around. She sighed as she picked up a few fruits and looked like she was contemplating a few other things. “Dominique, just grab some things to last for a few days,” I urged, still feeling uneasy about the wolf at her house. Dominique looked at me, and I just looked back at her. There was no way I was letting her stay at her house by herself now that I knew they were still after her. “I’m only going to be at your house until the morning, Nathaniel. So I don’t need much.” “Would you change your mind if I said that Jacob is sti
