I thought I was okay with it. Chaser and his quest to avenge Madison. She was dead, and I was alive. Maybe I was just a full-blown head case.
“If I don’t belong here, then where do I belong?” I stared at him, my throat aching. “Gasket said I was worth it, but I can’t see it. All I’ve done since I walked into your life is screw it up. You’ve been shot and stabbed, lost everything, lost your place at Fortitude, and now you… Your revenge is for her, and I’m just… I’m a way to get there.”
Chaser was like a statue, sitting on the end of the bed and staring at me. Whatever he thought about my self-destruction, he didn’t comment. He didn’t even blink.
“Answer me,” I exclaimed. I’m ranting like a fool and destroying the last shred of hope I had in my life.Everyone wants to be loved, I thought.But what if I’m meant to love alone? Can I live, knowing I’m destined to self-destruct?
“Say something!” I screeched.
“I love you.”
It was my turn to stare. I blinked, my hands trembling.
Chaser rose to his feet and stood before me, his hands cupping my face. His touch burned my skin, his eyes staring deep into mine.
“I hear you,” he murmured. “We’re going to be okay.”
“But…”
“We just have to do one more thing before forever, remember?”
A tear slipped from my eye, dripping down my cheek like a little traitor. I didn’t cry. Inevercried.
“I’m not going to die, Sloane. I won’t let him touch you.”
“The deal,” I began, my voice wavering.
“Screw the deal.”
My breath caught.
“We both get out of this, no matter what,” he added, resting his forehead against mine. “It’s nonnegotiable. We’ll find another way.”
“Chaser, I…”
“We lost our way for a while, but we’re back. Okay?”
I froze, the tenderness in his expression haunting. When his lips took mine, I melted into his touch, unable to do anything but wrap myself around his being. I worked up the nerve to say those words again, my soul trembling with excitement, but before I could get them out, Chaser pushed me back onto the bed.
I gasped in surprise as he covered my body with his, the weight of him igniting a spark between my legs. I buried my hands in my hair as his mouth closed around a hard nipple and sucked it through the material of my top.
“Chaser…”
His hand found its way underneath my top, tugging it upward, and I allowed him to strip me to the flesh, exposing my breasts to his expert tongue.
We writhed, caught up in the heat of the moment. His words echoed in my heart, my outburst seeming foolish now we were here. His touch moved ever downward, my core coming alive.
He slipped his hand down the front of my jean shorts, in between the material of my panties and skin. His thumb brushed against my clit, teasing. He circled the little bundle of nerves, his touch arousing a sharp gasp of pleasure. Arching my back off the bed, I felt his cock brush my bare leg.
Chaser pulled his hand away and unbuttoned my jean shorts, then dragged them down. His T-shirt came next, and then his jeans were down, his cock hard and ready. He was over me again, slipping a finger between my folds. I didn’t have to see the look in his eyes to know. I felt it. I was dripping, throbbing, pulsing...
He pushed a finger inside my opening, and I rolled my hips into his hand, forcing him to delve deeper. I stretched as another digit entered me, his palm flattening over my clit and rubbing. Slow at first, then hard, his fingers fucked me at an obliterating pace. A cry tore from my lips as my body rose, and my legs were forced wide open.
He was relentless as he pleasured me, the wet slapping of his hand driving me right to the precipice until I lost my grip and fell. I came hard, but he never slowed, my body quivering wildly around his fingers.
I’d hardly caught my breath let alone finished before Chaser thrust his cock into me. He pounded into my body, fucking me mercilessly. Taking me whole, just like the first night we’d been together. All our pent-up frustrations had come out then. Slick, overpowering, and intense.
My orgasm tore me in two, the force overwhelming everything but Chaser and me. We were all there was. Our enemies were nothing. Our revenge was nothing.Our fear was nothing.
