Chapter 10: Can I interrupt
Connor
Damn, damn, damn! I can’t believe I just did that. I scream in my head.
Rushing to my car, I sift my fingers through my hair and blow out a couple of deep breaths. My heart feels like it’s about to burst from my chest, and my pants feel uncomfortable. I look down at my zipper and curse the fact that even though I came in my pants, I’m still hard. Every part of me rebels at the thought of leaving when what I really want to do is go back in there and slide into her tight, warm depths.
Fuck!
I berate myself as I drive back to my place. It’s amazing that even beneath the freezing cold water r

April I grip Connor close as all of the windows in the shop erupt around us. Glass rains across the room, creating a symphony with my horrified screams. Without a thought, Connor drags me behind the counter, keeping his body over mine. Popping sounds resound across the room, breaking glass, plates, and cups. Rolling back, Connor pulls out a gun. His expression grows cold as the popping sounds continue. “What’s happening?” I call out over the roaring sounds. Connor glances my way quickly and shouts. “Someone’s shooting up the place.
The Assassin's Surrender VIIII Chapter 12: Twisted Plots
Connor Looking at my closed bedroom door, I tighten my fists and visibly struggle to not rush in there and finish what I started with April the night before. God, I want her so badly. And after hearing her tragic story, I want her more. I never knew someone could be so strong. She makes my sad childhood in the slums look like child’s play. I might have been poor, and we might have struggled, but at least I had Santana. I can’t imagine what she endured in the hands of that psycho. And hearing her tell me that her mother sold her to that man makes me want to murder someone. Seeing that I’m not going to get any sleep, I take off my suit jacket and tie then break out my laptop. Unlike when I was researching April, it doesn’t take me long to find information on the other kids. Unfortunately, wha
The Assassin's Surrender VIIII Chapter 13: Dark Side
April My eyes flutter open, but I don’t want to wake up. I’m too comfortable. Tucking closer to the fluffy comforter, my brow furrows when the arm around my waist tightens. Looking down, I see a very masculine hand spanning my flat stomach. That’s when I notice that I’m tucked beneath a large, broad chest. His warm breaths caress my neck, and his firm thighs are trapping my legs beneath his. As careful as I can, I turn around and look at Connor’s handsome face. His eyes are closed, and his shadowed jaw is slack with sleep. While he sleeps, I devour his features with my eyes. His high cheekbones, Roman nose, and plump lips are exquisite. Hungry for more, I run my eyes across his thick bicep, muscled c
The Assassin's Surrender VIIII Chapter 14: Next step
Connor “What the hell was that about?” I throw my hands up, frustrated. Why was she so freaked out? I look at the door that she rushed out of, then turn back to my computer. Without a thought, I enter a code, hack into her phone and ping her location. There’s no way that I’m going to let her out of my sight. I rub the back of my neck, trying to loosen the knot of stress I can feel forming. Taking my phone, I text her. I know you need time, but while
The Assassin's Surrender VIIII Chapter 15: No way to escape the guilt
April Sweat glides down my neck as I continuously strike the punching bag. However, nothing so far has worked to assuage my guilt. I know that it was a cowardly move to run out of the apartment earlier; I just couldn’t deal with all of the information they found. Eight kids are dead! Eight! How is that possible? And most of all,…why? Why would someone want to hurt those children? I don’t understand. They were innocent children who suffered so much. Why is someone silencing them? My throat clogs with emotion. For so long, I’ve felt helpless and alone because of what happened and the things Hansen put me through. When Micah appeared like an avenging angel and saved all of us, I thought that the kids would b
The Assassin's Surrender VIIII Chapter 16: Reassess my wants
Connor “Where the fuck could she have gone?” I swear as I run out of the gym after the manager told me she wasn’t there. I look at my phone and look through the tracker before connecting it to one of my hacking tablets. Within moments the monitor in my tablet goes off, pinpointing April’s location. My brow furrows. She’s in the Port Authority subway. It’s heading to Bedford-Stuyvesant. Why the fuck would she go to such a rough neighborhood?” I turn the car toward Bedford and send a verbal command to my tablet. “Check the kidnapped kids’ files and see if any of them live in Bedford-Stuyvesant?”
The Assassin's Surrender VIIII Chapter 17: Speechless
April My eyes widen with trepidation at Connor’s words. There’s nothing worse than having someone tell you that you need to talk because it never leads to anything good. The first guy I slept with before I came to live with Tate and Chelsea said the same thing after we fucked in one of the school’s custodial closets. I inwardly snicker when I remember him telling me that it was just a fuck. That it would be best if no one knew because his reputation would be ruined. I simply rolled my eyes then and told him that I was more than fine with not telling anyone. Unfortunately, I don’t think I will react the same way if Connor says the same thing. The very idea that he’d blow me off makes me feel murderous. Prepping for a rejection, I cross my arms in front of my chest in a defiant pose and
The Assassin's Surrender VIIII Chapter 18: Wake me up before you go
Connor I look at April’s exhausted form from the doorway and frown. She looks so sweet and soft that I have to force myself to leave the room before I ravish her again. Talking to the Burgman’s seemed to drain her. However, I could also see that it somewhat lightened her guilt. I look at the card in my hand and send a search command into my tablet. Hopefully, the phone number and name are enough. The drive home helped me think and review all of the information that the Burgmans shared. As we made our way back home, I couldn’t help but think about how easy it is to be in her arms. Usually, when I sleep with a woman, I’m ready to send her packing the next day. I never call them or go back for seconds. But wi
