Chapter 29
Misha
The moment we’re done eating, I take Aurora’s hand and pull her to her feet. “Have a good night, everyone.”
She only has time to wave at Abbie before I drag her out of the dining hall. I head for one of the exits on the side of the castle, and once we’re outside, I let out a relieved breath.
“That went better than I thought it would,” Aurora mentions.
Wrapping my arm around her shoulders, I chuckle, “Alek was a second away from killing Abbie.”
Aurora snuggles into my side as we walk down a path. “Those two are like oil and fire. There’s bound to be an explosion.”
Unable to avoid the matter for much longer, I say, “There’s something we have to talk about.”
She tilts her head back to meet my eyes. “What?”
“There’s still a hit out on Abbie’s family. Viktor only canceled the one on you.”
A despondent expression washes over her features. “Oh. That sucks.”
“When you go to the Sartoris vacation house, you can’t mention any of this to your parents.”
Aurora nods, and I squeeze her to me. Stopping behind a fence of hedges that leads to a maze, I wrap my arms around her and take a deep breath of her soft scent.
“Don’t do anything stupid when you go. Just come back to me.” “Okay.”
I pull back and press a kiss to her mouth, which quickly spirals into a desperate need for more.
When my cold hands slip beneath her cashmere top, Aurora lets out a burst of laughter.
“Your hands are freezing,” she complains.
I lock eyes with her, and when she notices the desire burning in mine, she says, “Let’s go to my suite.”
I shake my head. “I want you to get on your knees.” “Out here?” she gasps. “Now?”
“Yes, right here, right now.”
She glances in the direction of the castle. “But someone can come out and see us.”
“They won’t see you because you’ll be on your knees.” Still looking apprehensive, Aurora sinks to her knees.
Fuck she looks beautiful, her face lined up with my cock.
“Unzip my pants,” I order. My heartbeat speeds up when she does as I say. “Take out my cock.”
“I can’t believe I’m getting a blowjob lesson in the middle of a garden,” she chuckles.
I place my hand on the back of her head, and fisting her hair, I watch as her tongue darts out to lick my hard-on. Her eyes lift to my face, looking for approval.
“That’s right, moy malen’kiy olen’. Now suck me as deep as you can.”
When her lips close around my shaft and she only manages to take half of me, I almost shoot my load.
“Khristos.” My breaths speed up as I stare at the erotic vision at my feet. “You’re perfect.”
My praise has Aurora growing braver, and she starts to suck with enthusiasm.
She’s inexperienced, but still, just the sight of her mouth wrapped around my cock makes this the best blowjob I’ve ever had.
Movement catches my eye, and as I watch the yakuza gang come out of the castle, I start to thrust inside her wet warmth.
“That’s it, krasivaya. Take me as deep as you can,” I groan, my balls already tightening.
Aurora hollows her cheeks out and gags when I go too deep. Too close to my orgasm, I can’t stop from thrusting down her throat. Again she gags, and I watch as a tear spirals down her cheek.
I find my pleasure with a grunt, and as I ride the wave, I check where the three men are.
Kazuo notices me, and when they change direction toward us, I pull out of Aurora’s mouth and zip myself up. “We have company. Stay on your knees.”
“Shit,” she hisses. “Did they see?”
“No. Just stay quiet and still. Let me handle it.”
I step out from behind the hedges so they won’t see Aurora. My muscles tense up as Kazuo stops within striking distance of me.
“Where are your friends?” he asks. “None of your fucking business.”
He lets out a chuckle as he steps to the side. “You’re all alone?” “Doesn’t matter.”
He nods, then darts forward with some kind of war cry that does nothing to inspire fear.
My arm shoots out, and the palm of my hand connects with his nose. As Kazuo drops with blood spurting from his nose, I don’t even think and
move toward Takaharu. Launching myself into the air, I twist my body and deliver a kick to his neck.
As I land on my feet, Seijo hesitates, but I go for him anyway, delivering a double flying-knee kick to his chin.
I hear Kazuo get up behind me and shake my head. “Really. What the fuck do I have to do for you to learn your lesson?” I mutter as I turn around.
Intense rage burns through me at the sight of Kazuo with his arm wrapped around Aurora’s neck.
He chuckles at me, and wiping the blood from his nose, he smears it over her cheek. “She smells like cock. Is she good?”
You can’t kill him.
St. Monarch’s will take out a hit on you. You can’t protect Aurora if you’re dead.
Before I can attack, Aurora slams the back of her head against his broken nose.
“Oh, Jesus.” She looks absolutely disgusted by the blood on her cheek, and turning around, she plants her knee in the man’s groin.
Fuck, that blow would even have Alek in pain.
Kazuo drops to his knees, and with his hands clutching his dick, he falls to the ground.
I dart forward, and grabbing Aurora’s arm, I yank her to my side.
“Touch my woman again, and you won’t wake up,” I warn the fucker before I kick him until he’s unconscious.
As I start walking back toward the castle with Aurora right next to me, I point a finger at Takaharu and Seijo, barking, “Stay the fuck down.”
Seijo listens, but Takaharu climbs to his feet. He locks eyes with me then growls, “You’re marked.”
My voice is dark and ruthless as I reply, “So are you. Watch your back and sleep with one eye open.”
I’m on high alert until we reach Aurora’s suite, and I shut the door behind us.
When I lock eyes with her, she lets out a nervous chuckle. “That was both badass and scary as hell.”
“Are you okay?” I ask, my eyes flying over her body to make sure the fucker didn’t hurt her.
“No, I’m not okay.” She gags, then runs for her bathroom. “Ewww.” I go after her and watch as she cleans the blood off her cheek.
“That’s so freaking gross,” she mutters, making sure her face is clean.
When she finally looks at me, I say, “Do you have any idea how proud I am of you?”
She moves closer to me, a smile curving her lips. “I was good, wasn’t
I?”
“You were amazing.” I wrap my fingers around her neck, brushing my
thumb over her soft skin. “You saved my life out there.”
She grins at me. “Nah, it looked like you had things under control.”
I shake my head. “I told you I’d kill for you. The penance for killing on St. Monarch’s grounds is death.”
Her eyebrows draw together. “But you wouldn’t have killed him.”
I tilt my head. “For touching you? I would’ve.” I press a kiss on her forehead. “No one touches you. You’re mine.”
“Thankfully, it all turned out okay,” she whispers as she wraps her arms around my neck.
Tonight, yes. Tomorrow’s a whole different story.
