Page 5 of Dirty Little Sinner

She flicks her eyes to him and nods. “Yes. It feels so good.”

“You gonna come on his tongue like a good little whore, baby?”

Her eyes blaze when he calls her a whore and I make a mental note about that, she loves being degraded and that shit only heightens my hunger for her.

“Fuck yes,” she purrs as she grinds against my face, chasing her release. This time I will allow control but next time, she will submit to me and be given only what I allow her to have.

FIVE

MADDISON

I try to keep my moans quiet, knowing Derek is just next door. But when Royce curls his fingers inside me and strokes my G-spot again while sucking on my clit, I lose the battle as my orgasm rips through me like a wildfire and I scream his name. I hear Cam roaring his release at the same time and that sends a shiver through me. This is the hottest sexual experience I have ever had. Royce laps at my pussy and brings me down gently, I slowly blink my eyes open when the shudders finally subside.

The moment I lock eyes with Royce, panic sets in, he pulls back instantly from the look on my face. He smiles reassuringly but it does nothing to ease the panic. Before either of them can utter a word, I leap off the bed, run out of the room and lock myself inside my ownroom. My heart is pounding so hard against my ribs I worry everyone will be able to hear it.

“Get a grip, you are all adults!” I hiss. I dart forward and jump on my bed, yanking the covers over my naked body and decide to hide under them until morning.

How the fuck am I going to face Royce?

I feel no awkwardness toward Cam, he and I got over that shit a long time ago, but I just let his uncle eat my pussy while his dick was buried in his ass. Fuck, images of Cam on his knees with Royce’s dick in his mouth has me clenching my thighs together. I force those thoughts out of my head and scrunch my eyes closed. I need sleep, after a good night's rest, everything will be better tomorrow and I can act like nothing happened.

Okay, maybe I’m not as mature as I thought I was. I know Derek and the others all wake at around five so I made sure to be out of the house by four-thirty to avoid them. I’m not ready to face any of them after what happened last night. I’ve been walking around aimlessly for nearly an hour with no destination in mind. I smilewhen I spot the merry-go-round. I remember one night after my mom left me here, I was upset because I was jealous that Cameron had a good parent and I didn’t. I said nothing to Derek but he could just tell. He brought me out here and sat behind the operator's desk and told me to ride as long as I wanted and he would wait until I was ready.

I don’t know what came over me that night, but after about twenty minutes, I broke down in tears. I didn’t realize the ride had stopped or that Derek’s arms were wrapped around me until the tears had finally stopped. He promised me that night that he would always be there for me and he didn’t need to be married to my mother to make that promise. He told me I would always hold a special place in his heart and now I wonder if he meant that in a different way?

“If you're trying to hide, you’re not doing a good job at it.” I scream in fright and whirl around with my hand over my heart, only to come face to face with the man who was just plaguing my thoughts.

“You scared the hell out of me!” I pant.

“There is too much in you to scare away.” I shoot Derek a snotty look. Silence stretches between us for a moment until he breaks it. “The workers will be here shortly to open up, I want to show you something before they get here.” My brows raise in surprise. When heturns and walks away, I chase after him. I don’t know what he wants to show me but I’m just grateful he isn’t being awkward about what he heard last night. I don’t think I could take it if he brought it up.

When we round the back of the house, my brows furrow until I remember Cam said they had to move Hades back here.

“Are you taking me to him?” I ask with a note of excitement in my voice. Derek just lolls his head to the side and looks at me. He's looked at me hundreds of times before but not like this. I can see longing in his blue eyes and that shit steals the very oxygen I need from my lungs. I stumble but manage to catch myself before I fall. He stops a foot away from me, and the tension between us suddenly ramps up.

“Maddison—” Before he can say anything else, a white blur of movement catches my attention from the corner of my eye. I spin to the side to see Hades bounding toward the fence. I take off, ignoring Derek’s plea for me to wait. I know they are all terrified of him, but I’m not. Hades would never hurt me because we are the same. We’ve been used, abandoned, and left with no family, and none of these were our choices. I head for the gate and try to pull it open at the same time Hades launches himself at the metal fence, but the gate doesn’t budge.

I draw back when Hades begins to snarl and swipe at the fence, I stumble back a step only to smack into something. I look back over my shoulder to see it’s Derek, his hands grip my waist instinctively.

“What happened to him?” I breathe out as I stare at my lion with heartbreak. He looks so angry and wild.

“He had his heart broken,” he says in a tone laced with hurt, and I stiffen. “He has been out here alone since you left. No one has been able to get within a foot of his fence without him trying to tear them apart.”

My heart sinks, guilt gnaws at me as I stare at my beautiful lion. I broke his heart and left him without a thought, like everyone else in his life—I chose my own self-preservation over him. I’m exactly like my mother, selfish.

“You are nothing like her, Maddison.” The sound of his voice pulls me from my thoughts. The grip he has on my waist tightens possessively, drawing a gasp from me when he pulls me against his chest, eliminating the sliver of space between our bodies. Instantly my heart starts racing and my breathing turns ragged. It’s only then that I realize I must have spoken my thoughts aloud. Shame washes over me.

“You have no idea, Derek. I am so much worse than her,” I whisper.

“No, you’re not,” he argues.

I pull out of his hold and whirl around, facing him. I meet his intense gaze and refuse to cower under the shame of what happened the last time he and I were alone together.

“I may not fuck for money or put needles in my arm, but I am my mother’s daughter. I left Hades. He was like a son to me and I didn’t think twice before I ran.” He opens his mouth to argue but I’m not done. “I know you heard us last night.” His face instantly blanks, proving me right. “I may not ask for money like my mother would when she fucks three guys at once, but I sure as fuck want the three of you and I think you know that.”

“I… sinner?—”

“Save it, Derek. I know Cam was only saying what I wanted to hear, and believe me, I wish it was the truth but there is no way you would ever throw your morals out the window for your own stepdaughter. I get it, I really do, but no one truly knows who they are until they remove the mask they wear and take a long look at themselves in the mirror.” I don’t stick around for his reply, I head back to the house so I can change. They haven’t asked me or even said anything about earning my keep but I still know how things are run, and I plan to pull my weight and work off the money I owe them for bailing me out.
