All Chapters of Midnight Sins: 30 Shades of Filthy Forbidden Desires : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Morning light Shined through the small window of the cabin. Belli woke up slowly. Her body was sore in the best way. Zack’s arm was wrapped around her waist. His body was warm against her back. She could feel his steady breathing on her neck.She smiled. Last night had been intense. Passionate. Raw. Zack had taken her again and again. Claiming her. Loving her. Making her forget everything for a while.But reality came back quickly.Emily was in the other room. Marcus was still out there. The truth was still hidden.Belli carefully slipped out of bed. She pulled on Zack’s shirt. It smelled like him. She walked to the kitchen. The smell of coffee already filled the air. Sarah had left some supplies before she left last night.Zack woke up. He sat up in bed. His eyes found her immediately. Dark. Hungry. “Come back to bed,” he said. His voice was rough with sleep.Belli smiled. “We have to check on Emily. And we need to make a plan.”Zack stood up. He was completely naked. His body was h

The stolen truck rumbled down the dark highway. The engine made a low, steady sound. Rain had stopped, but the road was still wet. Belli sat in the back seat with Emily. Her sister’s head rested on her shoulder. Emily’s breathing was shallow but steady. Her hand was still cold in Belli’s.Zack drove. His eyes stayed on the road. His hands gripped the wheel. Every few seconds he checked the mirrors. His jaw was tight. A small cut on his arm had started bleeding again. The smell of blood mixed with the wet leather seats.Belli looked out the window. Trees passed by in a blur. The night was dark. Only the truck’s headlights cut through it. Her mind kept replaying the bridge. The gunshots. Emily’s voice. The way her sister had looked at her.Emily stirred. Her eyes opened slowly. She winced as she tried to sit up. Belli helped her. Emily’s fingers dug into Belli’s arm. Her face twisted. She pressed her lips together to hold back a cry.“You’re really here,” Emily said. Her voice was weak.

The cabin felt safe for now.But Zack knew better.He stood by the window again. His eyes scanned the trees. The coffee in his hand had gone cold. He didn't care.Belli walked up behind him. She put her hand on his back. "You haven't slept much."Zack turned to her. "I can't sleep. Not while Marcus is still out there."Belli nodded. She understood. She felt the same way. "What do we do now?"Zack put the cup down. "We wait for Sarah's call. The drive is with her contact. If it works, the police will have to listen."Emily called from the other room. "I'm awake."Belli went to her. Emily sat up in bed. Her face looked a little better. But she still moved slowly."How do you feel?" Belli asked.Emily smiled a little. "Like I got shot. But I'm here. Thanks to you."Belli sat on the edge of the bed. She took her sister's hand. "We made it this far. We'll make it the rest of the way."Emily squeezed her hand. "I was wrong about so many things. I let Marcus use me. I let my anger control me

The next morning was quiet again.Belli woke up early. She looked at Zack. He was still sleeping. His face looked peaceful. She smiled a little. Then she remembered everything. Marcus. The danger. The flash drive.She got up quietly. She put on Zack’s shirt. It smelled like him. She walked to the kitchen. She made coffee. The smell filled the room.Zack woke up. He sat up in bed. He looked at her. "You didn't sleep much."Belli smiled. "Neither did you."He stood up. He pulled on his pants. He walked to her. He kissed her forehead. "We'll get through this."Emily called from the other room. "I'm awake."Belli went to her. Emily sat up in bed. Her face looked better. But she still moved slow."How are you?" Belli asked.Emily smiled a little. "Better. The pain is less. But my body feels heavy."Belli sat on the edge of the bed. She took her sister's hand. "You're getting stronger. That's good."Emily looked at her. Her eyes were full of regret. "I keep thinking about what I did. I hurt

The cabin felt smaller after the warning.The fire was low. The embers glowed softly. The room was dim. Everyone was awake. No one spoke for a long time.Belli sat on the couch. She held Emily's hand. Her sister's fingers were still cold. Belli's own hand shook a little. She kept looking at the door. She kept listening for sounds outside.Zack stood by the window. His pistol was in his hand. His body was tense. He didn't move. He just watched the dark forest.Sarah checked the back door. She made sure it was locked. She checked the windows. She made sure they were closed.Emily looked at Belli. Her face was pale. "He knows we're here. He knows everything."Belli squeezed her hand. "We knew he would come. We are ready."Emily nodded. But her eyes showed fear. "I don't want to lose you again.""You won't," Belli said. Her voice was soft. "We are together now."Zack turned from the window. "The message was clear. He wants us scared. He wants us to make a mistake."Sarah walked to the tab
