I wrap one hand around her throat, pressing her head back against the wall as I stare into her eyes. 揧ou gonna come for me, Angel??I growl.
揑 want to,?she breathes.
揝o tell me what I need to do to get you there.?
揧ou抮e being too gentle. I抦 not made of glass.?
揊uck, Jessie. I can抰厰 I shake my head. I抦 nailing this girl into oblivion here.
揧ou抮e holding back,?she breathes. 揑 can feel it.?
揧ou think??I grunt, trying to stop myself from coming as her sweet pussy squeezes me for dear life.
揑 know.?
I release my grip on her throat and plant my hands either side of her head on the wall. 揧ou抎 better hold on,?I growl and she wraps her legs tighter around me. 揧ou ready??
揧es,?she pants.
揂re you sure??
揧es.?
I pull out of her almost all the way before I drive back into her with everything I have.
揅onor,?she groans so loudly I抦 sure my brothers must have heard in the next room, but I抦 past caring. I rail into her again and she drags her fingernails down my back.
揧our pussy loves my cock, Angel,?I grunt. 揧ou抮e squeezing me so hard. You抮e going to come for me. Now,?I order her and she nods her head as she bites down on her lip. I thrust into her again and she shifts a few inches up the wall as she clenches around me and finally lets go, shouting my name when she comes. A few more thrusts has me finding my own release and I spurt hot and heavy inside her.
When she stops trembling, I lower her legs to the floor. She looks up at me. 揑 love you,?she whispers.
揑 love you, too, Angel.?
When I walk back into the bedroom ten minutes later, Shane is there. His eyes are burning into me. There is no way he didn抰 just hear our girl coming for me.
揧ou two okay??he asks with an arch of one eyebrow.
I clear my throat. Why do I feel like such a fucking deviant? 揧eah.?I nod.
揇on抰 look so fucking worried, Con,?he says with a shake of his head. 揧ou gave her what she needed.?
揑 know.?I run my hands through my hair. So, why the fuck does he look so disappointed in me?
揑抦 going to check on the boys,?he says before he shoves his hands in his pockets and walks out of the room and it抯 then that I realize it抯 not me he抯 disappointed in but himself. I shake my head and watch him leave. I should never have been so hard on him when Jessie was taken. He beats himself up enough without me adding to his worries.
Jessie walks out of the bathroom a few seconds later and wraps her arms around my waist. 揟hank you,?she says as she lays her head against my chest.
揧ou never have to thank me for that, Angel.?I rub my hands over her back and she snuggles into me.
Chapter 29
Jessie
After my shower with Conor, I put on some fresh clothes and go into the den where all of the brothers are waiting. Liam and Mikey rush over to hug me as soon as they see me and I hold onto them both for so long, I get cramp in my arm. When I finally let go, Conor hands me a mug of hot, sweet tea and I sit on the sofa.
揧ou ready to talk about what happened, baby??Liam asks softly as he takes a seat beside me and takes hold of my free hand. Mikey sits on the other side of me while Shane and Conor sit in the armchairs opposite.
揑 was in the hotel suite waiting for Shane to come back and he just walked in. The Wolf. He told me that he was your Uncle Paul. He had Shane抯 key. He said that you had given it to him.?I look at Shane and his face is full of guilt and anger and I wish I could take it away for him.
揧ou know that I didn抰 though, Jessie??he frowns at me.
揙f course I do.?
He nods and leans back in his chair and I continue telling them what happened. It抯 so hazy that I抦 still piecing it together for myself. 揑 saw him and I just froze. I wanted to run. I wanted to find the gun but my legs wouldn抰 work.?A tear runs down my cheek. 揑抳e waited so long to confront him and when he was standing right there in front of me, I was paralyzed.?
揟hat抯 completely understandable, Red,?Mikey brushes the tear from my cheek with his fingertips.
揑 just couldn抰 believe he was standing there, you know? And when he told me he was your uncle, I couldn抰 even process what was happening.?
The four of them keep watching me and I wonder if they are waiting for me to have some sort of breakdown, but that抯 not about to happen. What happened in the past twenty-four hours is nothing to what the Wolf has put me through before, and if that didn抰 break me, then this won抰 either.
揥hat happened after that? How did he get you out of there without anyone noticing??Conor asks.
揑 don抰 know,?I shake my head. 揟here was a struggle and then the last thing I remember from the hotel room is that everything went black. He must have drugged me.?
揧eah,?Liam nods his agreement.
揂nd then I don抰 remember much at all. I woke up a couple of times in that basement. It was dark and I was cold but I was so out of it. I remember words or things he said but they抮e not always in order. I remember parts of what he did, but I think I was out for most of it,?I shudder and Liam squeezes my hand. I don抰 need to say out loud what he did. They saw the bruises on my thighs. I was naked for Christ抯 sake. I would hate if it made them see me differently though. I am not a victim. I am a survivor.
揟ell me about him,?I say as I take a sip of my tea. I feel like knowing more about him will help me to defeat him. He is not a wolf, he is a man. And I refuse to call him the Wolf any longer. 揟ell me about Paul Ryan.?
The three brothers look to Shane who rubs a hand over his jaw. 揌e left Ireland when I was thirteen, not long after our mum died.?
揂nd before that??
揌e was in the army. Special Forces. We never saw much of him as kids, but厰 he swallows.
揃ut what??
揥hen we did, he was?he was our uncle. He taught me and Conor to shoot a rifle and how to skin an animal. He was damaged, yeah, but he was厰 He shakes his head. 揑 can抰 fathom how he went from that man I knew to the one who did that to you.?
揥hy did he leave??
Shane抯 face pales but it is Conor who answers. 揚atrick Ryan drove everyone away eventually. He and Paul had a love-hate relationship ?but mostly it was just hate.?
揂nd you never heard from him again??I ask with a frown.
揘ot until a few months ago,?Shane replies. 揌e was a hired gun and we knew he抎 worked for some of the most dangerous people all over the world. We assumed he was dead.?
揃ut he got in touch recently??
揧eah. I thought it was because his brother was dying, but now I wonder if it was because he抎 found out where you were,?Shane replies.
揑s there anything else I should know about him??
揑 don抰 even remember him,?Mikey says with a shake of his head.
揈vil cunt!?Liam spits. 揓ust like his brother.?He looks at me and squeezes my hand again. 揌e抯 our uncle, Jessie. How the fuck??
揑 don抰 know. It抯 so hard to fathom,?I admit.
揅an you ever see us the same way, Red??Mikey asks.
揥hat??I blink at him. Here I was worried that they would see me differently and not even considering the repercussions for them of discovering who their uncle is. 揑 see you exactly the same as I always have.?I put my mug on the coffee table and take hold of his hand. 揧ou are nothing like your uncle.?
揑 love you,?Mikey whispers and lifts my hands to his face, brushing his lips over my knuckles.
揑 love you, too.?
Chapter 30
Jessie
I lie on the sofa, with my head on Liam抯 lap and my legs over Mikey抯。 It is late now and these boys have looked after me all day long. Bringing me my favorite snacks. Watching my favorite movies with me. Conor even read me some Tolstoy earlier. They are all so sweet. But Mikey抯 hand has been on my leg for the past half hour and he has been rubbing it up and down my calf. I have never known him to touch me for so long without it leading to something more. I watch his strong fingers gliding over my skin and I am willing him to slide them higher, but he hasn抰 even ventured past my knee. Our relationships are about so much more than sex, but that is a huge part of it. I need to know that nothing has changed between us. This is what I need to feel like me again.
