Then, I crossed the room, bending to retrieve her panties. I walked back to her just as she was sliding her dress down over her hips.
“Put these on,” I said.
“I was going to—”
“No,” I said, cutting her off. Her finger was pointed toward the bathroom, and I pulled that fingertip to my lips and kissed it before draping her panties over the knuckle. “You’re not allowed to clean up yet.”
“Notallowed—”
“Put these on, and walk home with my cum dripping out of you. I want you to feel a reminder of what just happened with every fucking step.”
Her lips parted, eyes wide.
I didn’t say another word.
I waited, ready for her to fight me, for her to say I was disgusting and I didn’t own her, that I couldn’t tell her what to do.
Satisfaction buzzed deep in my being when she didn’t do any of that. Instead, she slid the thong on, showing me more than her words that this was far from over.
Once her dress was in place again, I pressed her against the mirror, running the pad of my thumb over her bottom lip.
“I promise… the next time I touch you?” I hooked my thumb over her bottom teeth, swiping her tongue and prying her mouth open. “You’ll be begging me to.”
I sealed that promise with a bruising kiss, and then I released her, turning my back and pulling on my briefs and shorts. I grabbed a wipe and ran it over the bench, too, because I wasn’t a monster.
That made Maven laugh.
“Where are you going?” she asked when I was heading for the door.
I turned, walking backward as I shrugged and offered one last smile. “Gotta take care of that tape.”
I nodded toward the camera in the corner that was still covered by my shirt, and Maven’s little mouth popped open, eyes bulging.
“I thought you said there was no audio!”
“You’re not the only one who’s a good liar.”
The laugh that rumbled out of my chest was almost as satisfying as the dumbstruck look on her face.
“Vince! Donotkeep that tape.”
I held up two fingers. “Scout’s honor.”
“I mean it. You better destroy it.”
I just laughed again as I kicked the door open and made my way toward security.
We both knew there was no chance inhellI’d be doing that.
CHAPTER 24
ROLLER COASTER
Maven
The next week passed in a dizzying blur.
I’d been in a daze the morning after my night with Vince, waking up with a cacophony of questions and thoughts screaming at me all at the same time.
