Henry
Humans.Shitty humans.
I swear, they were the bane of my goddamn existence on a normal day, but now they were hurting my mate, and I was absolutely not okay with that. I shook my head as I completely changed my phone number, reading briefly through the email I received, confirming that our intel and security company would be looking into whether or not the woman who messaged me was still in contact with Becky. It was possible that this was just a stupid move that some high school girls thought would be funny, but on the off chance it wasn’t and Becky was once again going to be a threat, I wanted eyes on all participants.
Didn’t we already have enough to worry about?
Honestly, I was just glad Maya hadn’t thought the worst. I never wanted her to doubt my commitment to her, and that Halloween ‘costume’ picture had been far from innocent. The woman had been nearly naked, and I felt sick over the idea of Maya seeing that message and where her head must have gone. I wasn’t positive what I had to do to ensure she never felt an ounce of those emotions again, but I would make it fucking happen.
The idea of being attracted to anyone but Maya was inconceivable.
After another few minutes of work, I left the office and walked down the hall towards her bedroom door, finding it still cracked open from when I’d laid her down between the twins. She looked exhausted, but also very comfortable between the two of them. My eyes strayed to where she had kicked off the covers, and a groan caught in my throat.
Maya was partly rolled on her stomach, and her ass was no longer covered by a blanket. The pink silk of her shorts pulled tight against her ass and pressed up against her pussy, hiding absolutely nothing. I could imagine just how easy it would be to slide them to the side and devour her little cunt before filling her up in one hard thrust. I closed my eyes, checking my lust so I didn’t get into the bed, and instead turned towards my bedroom.
I almost considered not taking a shower, but after seeing her tight, pert ass in silk again, I knew I needed to cool down a bit. Except even the cold water couldn’t shake the idea of stripping the material off of her until she was completely naked and spread out in my bed. I had no fucking idea what it was about pink silk on Maya, but it was the perfect goddamn combination of sexy and still completely her, that made me so damn hard it hurt. Each day I wanted her more and more, and it felt like each and every day, we came so close to losing her forever. So close to someone taking her from us forever.
I closed my eyes, resting an arm up against the shower wall, as I tried to push away the possessive urge running through me that said I needed to claim her. Now. Before anything else happened. The urge that had my hand wrapping around my cock as I jerked myself off to the idea of her on her knees in front of me, those massive doe-eyes wide and practically begging me for my cum. The idea of her trapped underneath me so that no one else could touch her, ever, so that no one else could take her, ever. I groaned as I tried to shake that thought process and slammed the water off on the shower, not bothering to try to bring myself to come. It wouldn’t be the same unless I was inside of her. I knew that.
Getting out of the shower, I managed to calm myself down enough that I could wear a towel around my hips as I left the bathroom and walked into my dark bedroom. I didn’t look towards the hall, not trusting myself not to walk over there and pull her from bed, or join her, whether the twins were in there or not. Instead, I closed my door but left it unlocked, never wanting to be inaccessible to Maya.
Pulling on a pair of boxers, I laid down on my bed, sinking into the surface as a bone-tiredness invaded every element of my being. I groaned and threw an arm across my face as I closed my eyes only for a second before I was pulled into a dream, making me realize how stuck on the idea of Maya my subconscious still was.
“Henry.”Maya’s whispered voice against my ear pulled me from sleep. My eyes blinked open to find her straddling me, a rumble escaping my throat as her lips brushed over mine and caused a hot, electric surge to go through our bond.
“Sweetheart.” My voice was rough as my fingers smoothed over her ass, the silk so delicate under my grip I considered ripping it. “You shouldn’t be in here.”
I wanted her here, despite my words, but I think we both recognized that it was dangerous. Dangerous to my control and to her hot body that I wanted to dominate the fuck out of.
“I need you, Henry.” Her whimper was soft and authentic, the words music to my ears.
“How much?” I asked, my voice raspy as I tangled my hand in her hair and rolled us so she was pinned underneath me.
“So much,” she admitted, her cheeks flushing. “I need you to fix how frustrated I am again. You promised me… You promised that next time we were alone, you would.”
Fuck, she was right.
“Take out my cock,” I demanded, my voice edged in danger. Her hands immediately pushed down my boxers, my hard cock nearly slapping against her stomach. I managed to kick off my boxers as I slid my fingers under her top and tossed it to the side, her perfect breasts practically making my mouth water.
“Henry.” Her voice was breathy. “Henry—”
My eyes snapped open,my name echoing around me as I found Maya looking down at me. My breathing was ragged, sweat was on the back of my neck, and I was so damn hard that I knew she could tell, her flushed face and dilated pupils calling to me in a primal way.
Holy shit. Maya really was in bed with me. I had no idea why, but I had a perfect reason for her to stay.
My gaze ran over every single inch of her skin, realizing that she’d clearly snuck in here on purpose, because she’d changed her outfit. A legitimate growl left my throat at what she was wearing, her golden skin practically bare except for a flimsy, sheer chemise. The straps were almost nonexistent, and the main part of it was completely transparent, showing off the small piece of silk covering her cunt. I swallowed, trying to not lunge for her, when I realized that her breasts were practically spilling out of the tiny cups of the lingerie, her hard nipples making my cock practically jump. Goddamnit, this woman needed to be fucking illegal or some shit. My fingers snuck out to grasp her hip as I tugged her forward, a moan escaping her lips as she rocked against my hard cock.
“What are you doing here?” My voice was almost indistinguishable compared to normal, rough and uneven. Her face pinkened as her hands snuck out and ran over my chest, her nails digging in slightly as she considered her words.
“I woke up and couldn’t fall back asleep.” Her voice was breathy. “I kept thinking about you and how you were touching me, running your hands over me during the movie, and I started feeling even more frustrated—”
“So you came to my bed,” I growled softly, my hands tightening on her as she nodded.
“Do you know why you came to my bed, Maya?” I lifted one hand to smooth over her throat as she arched further into me.
“Because you will help me?” she whispered.
“Oh, I will help you, sweetheart,” I promised, “But you’re going to help fix my problem too. Do you feel how fucking hard I am? That’s all because of you, so you need to fix it. That’s why you really came in here, because you knew how much I needed to be inside of your tight cunt—”
