She placed the magazine on the pillow she’d left on top of Ty and went to stand beside his head. Without a word, she reached down to lift his head and then pushed the second pillow between his head and the arm of the couch. Then going to sit back down beside Ty, Tanesha leaned comfortably on the pillow lying on Ty and opened the magazine. With the moonlight streaming in through the window and the light from the bedside lamp, she could read perfectly. She rolled her eyes when Ty flashed her a million-watt smile and brought his leg back onto her thighs.
“Alright, which ones did you not read?” Tanesha asked, trying very hard to suppress her own smile as she flipped through the magazine.
And they ended up spending hours discussing the contents of the magazine. Ty allowed Tanesha to do most of the talking, enjoying watching her talk and really appreciating her intelligence. He had a feeling if he talked much, she would be able to read him so he just listened more and interjected where necessary. At a point, Ty absentmindedly began to soothingly comb his fingers through Tanesha’s hair whilst she talked and it wasn’t awkward at all. And when after a while Tanesha adjusted herself so that she was stretched out on top of Ty, with her legs between Ty’s and her head lying snugly on the pillow covering his groin and stomach, none of them even batted an eye.
“Tell me about yourself,” Tanesha said softly, out of the blue. She felt the fingers in her hair stop moving briefly, before starting to move again.
“There’s not much to tell.” Ty rasped. “Why don’t you tell me about yourself?”
Tanesha snorted. “You already know all about me.”
“No, I don’t.” Ty laughed. “I wouldn’t ask if I did.”
“Somehow you don’t come across as someone who would take a job and not know about your charge,” Tanesha said. “You’re too smart not to.”
“Oh, so now I’m smart? What happened to the brainless, spineless idiot? Or was it bastard?” Ty asked dryly.
Tanesha went quiet for a while. “You’re not brainless.” She said quietly.
“One out of three. Not bad.” Ty chuckled.
“You’re not an idiot.” She whispered.
“Great score. I guess I have to stick with spineless.” He said.
“You kidnap a woman. Threaten her with rape and torture and touch her against her will in a room full of criminals. Only a spineless fool will do that.”
“So now I’m a fool in addition to being spineless. Sweet!”
“You know what I mean,” Tanesha grumbled. “You touched me in front of them, Skull.” She said, not even realizing that by that statement, she’d unconsciously implied that Ty wasn’t part of the gang. “That was cruel and horrible.” She said with so much pain and emotion, Ty froze. “And do you know what was horrible about the whole scene? I…” She trailed off.
“You what?” Ty husked.
“I was turned on. God help me, I was so aroused.” She whispered. “Not because they were watching. Because of you. I wanted you. And they could all see that. It was mortifying.” Her voice caught in her throat.
Ty felt like an ass. “I know.” He breathed. He didn’t know what to say. He never thought Tanesha would admit something like that to him. Of course, it wasn’t necessary to let her know that it was either give her pleasure or hurt her. And he’d chosen to give her pleasure. Ty said what came to his mind. “I’m sorry. I’m so, so sorry.”
Tanesha didn’t acknowledge or accept his apology. She remained quiet till Ty heard her even breathing, indicating that she was asleep. He pulled her up till both the pillow and her head were on his chest, and then wrapped his arms around her, still reeling from her last words. Tanesha was feisty and headstrong but also vulnerable, both in view of the danger she was in and the demands of her body, which she was clearly trying without success to control.
He was going to keep her safe even if it killed him, Ty vowed to himself. He owed her that much. He however couldn’t ignore the chemistry between them. They both obviously wanted to fuck each other’s brains out. He liked her… A lot. And he knew that soon, he wouldn’t be able to contain his feral hunger for Tanesha. Anytime he looked at her, all he could think of was stripping her and cramming her full of himself till her body exploded into a thousand rapturous pieces.
He’d tried very hard to ignore the strong urge but he knew that with the intensity of their lust and attraction for each other, it was only a matter of time before he was balls deep inside her pussy, deep-dicking the shit out of her. Ty groaned, feeling his cock jerk at the thought of being inside Tanesha. He wanted to lick her all over…taste her everywhere, along her wet folds where he could coax her throbbing clit out of its hood and suck on it till he was awarded with her cream.
“Fuck!” Ty swore, moving his hand down between them to adjust his full-blown erection. He wanted her so damn bad he could barely think. How the fuck was he going to get any sleep with that throbbing hardness between his legs, he asked himself with a groan.
And just as he thought, it took a really long time for him to be able to calm himself down enough to give in to slumber…his last thought just before he drifted off being… Why fight it?
