Page 83 of Heart Sick Hate

This time, when he shoves his fingers inside me, it’s brutal, and he doesn’t relent. I have to grip the seat and bite my lip to keep from screaming. He grinds my clit and fucks my pussy, all while sitting in the driver’s seat, relaxed.

At peace.

He shoves in deeper and reaches the places that pull me out of my body.

My skin prickles and my vision darkens. I’m not sure if I’m coming down or high because I’m fraying apart at the seams.

“Come for me, Echo.”

My nails dig into his skin, and blood heats my core as I start to shake with my climax. My senses flood with every sensation. Crew shoves his fingers in again, and I’m so sensitive that my entire body shakes at the pressure of his touch. I’m not sure how long an orgasm can last, but I’m riding the feeling as the tires glide over the pavement.

When I finally relax, my eyes flutter open and Crew pulls his hand out. But instead of gripping my thigh again, he brings them to his lips, sucking me off them.

“That’s one,” he says, glancing at me and grinning. “Next one will be on my tongue. Then my cock. Let’s see how long you can continue resisting us.”

There is nous. But as his hand slides on my thigh once more and he squeezes, I don’t know how much resistance I have left.

Crew

The warehouse is dark.

Empty.

Perfect.

“This is horrible.” Echo’s gaze darts around.

She’s so pretty when she’s surprised. Her wide eyes sink into me. Knives slicing through barriers I didn’t think had breaching points.

“So…” James doesn’t know what to make of Echo’s comment since Paul already gave him the green light, and I’m just here to sign the paperwork.

He straightens his tie and runs a hand through his dark hair, looking at me for guidance.

“It’s perfect. Draw it up.”

“Excellent.” He relaxes. “I’ll have everything ready to sign in the morning.”

I nod, and he passes a glance at Echo before walking away.

Girl’s too fucking magnetic. Everyone wants a piece of her, and it’s driving me more out of my mind by the day.

“Perfect? Are we even standing in the same building right now? There are rats running around, and mold growing from leaks in the ceiling.” She points overhead, where there’s a gnarly piece of the roof missing. “Why are we here?”

Echo moves in front of me, crossing her arms over her Namaste T-shirt, clearly missing the irony. She’s incapable of chilling the fuck out as she chews her gum and taps her toe on the ground.

“I’m buying it.”

“What?” Confusion knits her eyebrows. “Why?”

I lean in and kiss her temple because I can’t help myself. I should be hate fucking her against a wall after what she said to me on the car ride here, but instead, she makes me soft in ways I’m not.

Gravity pulls me forward, and I clutch her arms. “It’s a business expansion.”

“The shop isn’t adding a location in Oakland.”

She clacks her gum between her teeth, and even if I shouldn’t tell her, I can’t help it as she looks up at me with innocence that bleeds my soul dry. Gentleness that reveals all the shit I normally hide from people. Her bright eyes, a balance of the goodness she forgets exists within her.
