Chapter 51
Dmitri
I helped Ariel put our luggage into the SUV and my phone vibrated with a beep in the pocket of my black cargo pants. Without checking, I knew who it was.
Margaret and I had talked at length last night. After ignoring her for a few weeks, she thought that the main reason I gave her my attention was because I missed her.
If only she knew that I’d be escorting her on the pathway to hell, she’d be hot on her heels right now.
Ariel had been quiet ever since I informed her that we wouldn’t be traveling together as I had some issue to take care of, but presently, her well-being was my concern.
I caressed her cheek with my thumb and she folded her hands, pouting her lips. “Are you still mad at me?”
“The thing is, I know why you don’t want to join us and it makes me so uncomfortable. You have people that can do the job for you, why don’t you let them?” She queried.
She wasn’t going to understand so I placed my hands on her shoulders. “I promise to take the next available flight once I’m done,”
“What about Liora? She’ll throw a tantrum if she notices that you aren’t coming,”
Liora. My heart fell at the thought of her. She used to be very quiet but now she was a talkative who didn’t hesitate to express her feelings. I liked that she was outspoken and acted like an adult sometimes, but the last thing I wanted from her right now was her childish protest.
My phone beeped again and I planted a quick kiss on her lips. “Just take care of her, please,” I said and dashed off.
I knew that the conversation wasn’t over yet but she could do whatever she wanted with me when I got to Chicago.

My shot gun was comfortably seated in my holster when I got out of the car. I’d fixed a silencer on it even though we’d be meeting in a soundproofed room.
The aesthetics of the room brought back several memories that irked me and I began to wonder where all the lustful feelings I’d harbored for her were.
When I got to my room, I brought out my phone and sent her a text asking her to open the door. As if she was standing by the door, it opened immediately with her appearing by the doorway.
I skimmed through her outfit and my lips curled into a smug smirk. She was clad in a skimpy see-through lace robe that did nothing to hide her nude body underneath.
Her eyes glimmered with an unhinged desire that clearly screamed ‘fuck me’ as she ran her tongue over her lips while peering at me.
“You’re welcome,” She spoke softly and reached for my hand, leading me into the room. “I’ve been waiting, I even thought you’d changed your mind,”
I chuckled and closed the door, tucking the key which she’d swept over the fob into my pocket. “What will you have done if I had stood you up?”
She shrugged and plopped lousily on the bed. “Nothing or I’d have disobeyed your instructions and came to your house. There’s no way you didn’t miss all of this,” She tugged at the drawstring of her robe and it slid down her body to the floor.
Before Ariel and I had become intimate, this body would have made me lose every control I had over my body. By now I’d be inside of her, taking every bit of pleasure she had to offer.
But now, it felt like I was standing before a piece of carved wood. She meant nothing to me.
“Should I say what I don’t feel just to make you happy?”
The smile on her face disappeared and a look of disappointment replaced it. “You can’t say that, Dmitri. You were up all through last night, telling me how much you adored my body and how you couldn’t wait for me to satisfy all your fantasies. Come on, I’ve missed you so much. I can’t even think of being with another man because it’s only you I think of,”
I propped my arms behind me and rolled my eyes. “But you’ve been with other men before me. How come you’re still stuck up on me? I’m sure there are better men out there,”
“No!” She cried and flung herself at me. “There isn’t any better man for me. Don’t you get it, you’re make me feel things I never knew existed. Your touch brings my body back to life each time we are together. I’ve been horny for a long time and none of the toys I have could sate my cravings. It’s just you,”
I pushed her away and she fell on the bed, but as crazy as she was, she spread her thighs, exposing her well-shaved pussy that was coated with her wetness.
Her fingers brushed against her clit and a moaned worked past her throat. “Please, Dmitri,” She drawled and shut her eyes. “Make me feel good again,” She continued to moan while stroking her nub furiously.
I drew out the gun from my holster and cocked it. “Open your eyes,” I commanded.
Slowly, her eyes opened and she gasped, jerking upright. “Dmitri, what are you doing? Is this another kind of kink you enjoy?” She wiggled her brows, her breaths coming out in quick bursts.
“No it isn’t. Don’t you wonder why I was only concerned about your body last night?” I didn’t spare her any time to think about an answer. “It’s because you’re nothing but a cheap slut to me,”
“Well, I don’t mind being your slut,” She replied nonchalantly.
My fingers went around the trigger and the anticipation in her eyes dimmed in realization. “I came here to get my pound of flesh. Didn’t I warn you not to come close to my woman or even hurt the hair on her head?”
“What are you talking about?”
Her denial further infuriated me and in two quick steps I grabbed her neck and placed the muzzle of my gun on her ear. “Don’t even think of pretending, Margeret. You sent someone to trail her yesterday, right?”
Even though my hand held her neck tightly in one spot, she managed to shake her head vehemently. “No…” She squealed. My grip loosened and she began to cough. “I hate your wife so much for having the only man that I love wrapped around her finger, but I’m not a murderer. I don’t know about anything,” She denied.
“Then if it wasn’t you, who did? Tell me!” I thundered, causing her to tremble.
“I don’t know,” She yelled and sprang to her feet. “Please, leave and never come back, but have it at the back of your mind that you’ve just gotten on my bad side and I’ll make sure you feel my wrath,”
