CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 95. Doesn't feel like punishment
EricaAntonio took me straight to the bedroom and put me down to stand on my own feet. I wavered a little and his palm spread across my back to hold me. I looked up at him. Once again marveling at the fact how big and tall he was. He stepped back when it became clear that I wasn’t going to fall flat on my face and ordered, “Strip. By the time I come back I want you naked and bend over on that ottoman.”I followed his finger and saw a silk upholstered ottoman near the fireplace. When I turned to him, he said, “Don’t make me repeat myself and don’t test me, Erica, you’re already in too much trouble.”I licked my lips, opened my mouth but I didn’t know what to say. And he didn’t wait as he turned around and left me there to follow his orders.I looked back at the sofa and recalled his demands. Nakéd and bent over that piece of furniture. I guessed he wanted to spank me. And awareness slithered down my spine, along with a warm frisson of arousal in my blood. I was a lost cause, damaged be
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 96. I don't want to stop
(Not for sensitive readers) Erica “Your punishment starts now.” I stared at him. My eyes went between him and the belt he had wrapped around his fist. The mix of fear and anticipation made a weird cocktail in my veins and my skin felt stretched taut. I wasn’t so sure about this, and yet I didn’t want to stop him. He stepped closer. His hand came at the back of my neck as his fingers curled around my nape and he pushed my face down on the cushion. “Wait...” I gasped. I lifted my head to meet his eyes, resisting his hand on my nape. I had thought he would just spánk me and then this time he’d fûck me. But obviously he was improvising as he didn’t have his dark dungeon here to punish me. “Wait... Antonio...” I licked my lips and he gave me a look that clearly said he wasn’t too keen to hear what I had to say. “You can’t use the belt. It will hurt.” I sounded unlike myself. This was something new I had become with him. “That’s the fûcking point, isn’t it?” He growled, his eyes flash
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 97. You left me no choice
Erica“Go to hell and stay there.”“Gladly. But don’t forget what I said last time.” I didn’t. And his words came back to me now with a rush as he repeated them for me. “And I will take you with me.” He drank the rest of the scotch and the empty glass clinked with the remaining ice in them. He met my gaze when he felt me watching and he said, “Do you want to use your safeword, because I am not done yet.”“Do your worst.”He crouched a little, but didn't get on his knees as he said, “Tell you what... If you use your safeword now, I’ll put you to bed and leave you alone.” I shook my head even before he was finished. The problem was I didn't want him to leave me alone. I didn't want to take the chance, what if the darkness returned with his absence. I would prefer him and his punishments over the past demons any day of my life. “Or another option, you can scream for me. Scream and apologize, and I will stop.” His voice dropped to a deep murmur that felt like silk and warm like a summer s
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 98. She was mine
AntonioErica was a lot of things but the fighter inside her was something that scratched at the part of me I didn’t think I had. My mother was anything but a fighter, she had let her husband walk all over her and hadn’t said a word even when it came to her children. I hated her for it. I hated how she turned a blind eye to what her husband was doing to her children when it meant that she would get a reprieve from his sadistic behaviour. As a kid I had been unable to understand how a mother could let her children suffer but I knew that it was fûcked up. I knew that she wasn't a woman enough to be a mother and that was something that had remained with me. I despised weak women. I hated women who took their vulnerability as an excuse to be weak, to not fight.And then Erica barged into my life like the
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 99. Felt too intimate
AntonioWith her in my arms, I made my way toward the ensuite bathroom. She was warm in my hold, her face pressed against my chest and her eyelids were resting against her flushed cheeks. She hasn’t looked more beautiful than she looked at this moment, so subservient like a pretty little pet but I knew fire burned inside her. It was just on a low simmer because of what we had done. It feels like my own fire dulls her and it was a good thing as otherwise we would both still be fighting for power until the sun rose high up in the sky. I liked how she was so fûcking stubborn and even though it takes her time, she gives in to my demands.I pulled the glass door open to the shower, it was big enough for four people if needed and there was a bench adjacent to the wall. I settled her there before I fiddled with the knobs to set the temperature and stood in front of her so as not to have her drenched in the cold blast of water that would come out at first. I hadn’t ever considered such small

EricaThe car ride was uneventful and this time Ephraim was sitting in the back with Antonio and I. He was on my side of the seat while Antonio sat opposite us like the king judging his people but still his gaze felt skin deep. Thankfully, I was wearing proper clothes. Apparently Antonio had already ordered for them and Ephraim had bought them for me. Now, as I sat there with his golden gaze occasionally flickering to me I was grateful for the jeans and the blouse that was made of the softest silk, and because there was a chill in the air there was a matching pink scarf to go with my outfit. They were both into a deep discussion and talking in Italian but I heard Sokolov name a few times so I gathered they were still discussing about last night. And I didn’t miss how Antonio’s voice would turn lower and colder when he’d say something. Outwardly, he looked calmed and composed, but I could tell that more quiet he was and furious he’d be. It seemed I was starting to understand him a lit
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 101. Learned your lesson
Erica This breakfast was a new experience for me as both Ephraim and Antonio made small talk with me like they wanted to really know me. When I thanked Ephraim for the clothes and especially for the scarf, he told me it was Antonio who wanted this color. When I glanced at him in surprise, Antonio looked at me with dark eyes as he said, “Don’t ever lie to me, especially about the things you love. Ask for it and I’ll give it to you.” I opened my mouth but he placed a finger on my lips as he said, “Within boundaries, little devil. Don't push them.” And still I was warm from his earlier words, how so easily he said that he’d give me anything if I asked for it. And it wasn’t just that, Antonio hadn’t stopped touching me once since we sat down. Even when he was eating, his hand remained on my thigh. Going up and down in a maddening rhythm, making me squirm in my seat. And now as we finished our food, he turned to me and removed a napkin from his pocket then proceeded to wipe my mouth for
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 102. Can we keep him?
EricaAs soon as we were outside, Antonio grabbed my wrist and tugged me toward the narrow alley behind the restaurant and slammed me against the wall.“Anto—” He didn’t let me finish as he circled my throat with his fingers and tightened his hold before he slammed his lips down against mine.I gasped into his mouth and he took the opportunity to push his tongue past my lips as he ravaged my mouth. The kiss was punishing in its own way and I realised that was how he meant it to be. My bottom lip stung from where it was hurt but I kissed him back with equal fervor. When he pulled back, his thumb pushed down on my racing pulse as he said, “Never and I mean never do that again. I let you use that sassy mouth with me because I enjoy it and hadn’t stopped you in front of Ephraim even, but I draw the line where you think you can tell me what to do, like I’m accountable to you, in front of the whole world. These men fear me, little devil and if they see that I let my little whôre order me ar

CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 145. The World Stopped Spinning
Ephraim“Your job is to do whatever I tell you to do. Protect her.”I gritted my teeth at his absurd command, all these years I had been his shadow, spent all my time protecting him whenever he stepped out of that castle where he lived like a recluse. And now here he was telling me to protect her but not him. I’d have protected her but not at the cost of him, not if it meant letting him be in danger.I pressed on the accelerator as the car that was following us came to the side and slammed at the back of ours, for a moment I lost control of the steering wheel and the car tilted to the one side. I glanced in the rear-view mirror to catch Antonio cupping Erica’s head to prevent her head from slamming into the wind
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 144. Protect Her
AntonioMy office door opened with a bang for the second time that day and Ephraim stood there with Thor barking behind him. Before I could really give him a lashing to remind him of his place and for letting that dog into my office, I noticed the set of his jaw and the paleness of his face and without a second thought, my mind went straight to Erica. “What is it?”Instead of answering me, he asked, “Have you talked to Erica?”Even though I had wanted to call her, I hadn’t. And it was his fault. Because Ephraim’s words had unsettled me and I didn’t want to prove him right so no matter how much I was tempted to call her, I had refrained but now as I saw the expression on Ephraim’s face I regretted not doing so. And more than that as I slipped out my phone and dialled her number I regretted not putting a tracker on her phone after she broke the bracelet when the call ended without ringing on the other side.I had wanted to give her some privacy to talk to her family and it was the reaso
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 143. I don't feel so good
EricaI excused myself from the table to go to the bathroom, I wanted to ask Riley if she wanted to join me but she was busy talking to the guy sitting opposite her. But just as I took a step away from the table, Leo also stood up. I asked, “Where are you going?”“I’ll walk with you.”“Oh, you don’t have to.” I said, feeling embarrassed that he could easily read how I was hesitant and felt a little out of place here which was why I needed company to not look like a lost child.He ignored me and grabbed my hand as he made his way to the left side of the sitting area of the cafe where there was a door that led to a mildly lit corridor and pointed out the washroom for me. He said, “I know that your bodyguards aren't here today, so it’s understandable if you don't feel okay to roam around the unfamiliar place all alone.”I never thought about it in such a way but I guess I was almost carefree at the base level knowing nothing would hurt me, for instance no masked man would materialize out
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 142. We're not in love
Antonio“Sit down and explain yourself before I lose it.” I said to Ephraim as I entered the study after making sure that Elijah knew not to lose sight of her in any way and also to make sure she doesn't see him, if the former happened I’ll make sure he loses his fûcking life.Erica had asked me to stop sending men with her before too, saying that she felt like the odd one out with all the other students gawking at her because of all the men standing guard. But I had ignored her then because I knew most of them probably already knew who she was with, I was one of the men that people recognised on sight and associating with me puts her at risk so it wasn’t just to prevent her from running but also to make sure no one hurts her. And now I wanted to test her out. To know what she’ll do with her new found freedom that I was giving her. Even though it will be an illusion, for her it will be real enough.As I sat behind my desk, I folded my hands and looked at Ephraim. In the past, there ha

Antonio“Antonio...”“Mmm?”“There is this new place that has opened up in downtown that everyone is going to after the classes. Can I go?”“Of course. I told you, you can go anywhere you want to go. I’ll tell Ephraim to take you.” I replied, feeling a smile turn up my lips at the way she asked for my permission.She sat up, slipping out of my hold. And even though it annoyed me, I opened my eyes to look at her. Her flawless back was to me and I couldn't help but trail down my fingers on the curve of her spine and smiled when she shuddered. Without looking at me, she said, “I, actually, don't want him to come with me.”I narrowed my eyes on her back. Grabbing the back of her nape, I pulled her back until she was lying and then I sat up on my elbow to look down at her as I asked, “Are you planning to run away?”She rolled her eyes. She actually rolled her eyes and gave me a smile that made my cock hard, again. She said, “If I wanted to leave, I would've left that night.”It was three n
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 140. I like you, Antonio
AntonioI stood near the windows and looked down at her. Ephraim had given her his jacket that she had wrapped around her to protect herself from the cold. She was looking back at the castle from time to time, and sometimes her gaze would go up to the terrace but she didn't turn to look in the direction of the bedroom which was on her left. And even if she had looked I doubted she would be able to make me out in the darkness of the bedroom.I have no fûcking idea why I said what I said. I didn't know what got into me to let her leave. I just fûcking forced her to go. But when I saw her bandaged hand... I wasn’t lying. Seeing her hurt messes with me in a way I couldn’t explain. It was like going back in the past and seeing all the blood and feeling the pain. Being helpless, that's what it felt like.I wasn't prepared to say any of the things I told her but unlike her I was mature enough to recognise the truth when it smacked me in the face every time I looked at her, kissed her, touche
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 139. Take your freedom, Erica
Erica“What does that mean?” He questioned, his golden brown eyes frowning down at me. “What are you talking about?”I stared at him for a few seconds, if I didn’t know better I would really believe that he has no idea what I was talking about. The way he looked so confused, like he had done nothing wrong, like he didn’t know what I was talking about, like he hadn’t left me in the bed only to be with her. I swallowed against the lump in my throat as I sat up and slipped out of the bed. Sitting there with him so close wouldn’t give me enough strength to keep my anger. But even while I stood and he sat there on the bed, he was almost my height and just as big.“I saw you with her.” It took more effort than it should have to say her name. “Nicole. The way she was touching you. Kissing you. She kissed you...” I couldn't hide the pain as I said those words. And once again the image of her materialized in my mind, the same image that had been haunting me, that had forced me to slam my fist
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 138. Confused and Hurt
EphraimErica pushed past me and walked away to the exit I was pointing out instead of going through the one where Antonio was standing close to. Nicole’s eyes met mine, smug and taunting. She said, “You should go after her before you lose his toy. I heard it’s very expensive.”I took a step closer to her and she sucked in a nervous breath. I had never interacted with her, apart from the times when Antonio needed another set of hands in an act that he put up in the club with her as the submissive for the night. “Stay away from her. If Antonio knew what you just did—”“Save your threats, he already made his.” Her nostrils flared as she looked over my shoulder. “I don’t understand what you see in her. She is not even Italian, also he bought her from an auction, how could you take her side over mine when she’s nothing but his sex slave.” “She is anything but that. Did you see her in chains or kneeling at his feet like you did so often?”Anger flashed in her eyes as she glared at me. H
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 137. We've the same bracelet
EricaI woke up sprawled in the middle of the bed with blankets wrapped around me and sun shining through the parted curtains. Gathering my hair to the one side, I sat up and looked around the bedroom. The basket from which I had eaten number of sweet things was still on the bedside table and it reminded me of how Antonio had fed me the baked soft cookies with his own hands while I was curled up in his lap. I took my gaze off the basket to our clothes that were all over the place last night but now we’re folded and placed on the bench near the bathroom door, but there was no sign of Antonio.Deciding to get up and start the day, I slipped out of the bed and made my way to the bathroom. For the first time, I didn't sleep nakéd after sex and still Antonio had taken me in his arms, surrounding me with his big body as we slept. When I came out of the bathroom, I opened the closet door to find a selection of his shirts but there were a few dresses and jeans and tops too. I picked out a bla
