I was a ball of confusion after he left, my nerves were shot and I had butterflies in the pit of my stomach; why would he throw me a curve ball like that? And better yet how the hell was I supposed to handle it? I've worked really hard to get where I am, could I risk throwing it all away for what might be nothing more than a fling? I know I didn't believe him guilty of the crimes we suspected so as a woman I had no guilt there but as an agent tasked with a job would it be unethical to go there with him? I wish I knew the answers to my questions. I paced the apartment for the next hour or so in deep thought; was this something I wanted? Was he even giving me a choice? Was the attraction I felt for him enough to risk what I would most certainly be risking? I'm sure my boss wouldn't mind me sleeping with Hank to garner more info to put him away but that's where I draw the line, there's no way I could do that, but there was no way I could walk away from everything
I looked down at her in wonder and thought 'this is happening', it was really fucking happening as I felt my heart give over to her so easily, so simply. Fuck, what the fuck? The way she held onto me like a vise grip, the way her pussy walls clenched around me but most of all, the look in her eyes told me that for all her past experience she was new to this. Her body strained up to mine seeking, seeking as she keened and mewled while I fucked her hard and deep. I felt the need to cum and yet didn't want it to end not yet I wanted to stay inside her forever. I sped up my thrusts as the need to mark to claim overtook me. I had no idea what was happening to me as my heart and mind joined together as one with one accord, I had to make her mine now. I bit into that place where her neck met her shoulder as I fucked her to climax her silken walls dragging me over the edge with her making me cum harder than I ever have before. "You feel fucking amazing, just li
VOLUME 2: HOLD ME IF YOU CAN, MANCINI "Mine." I held her eyes with mine as I slid deeper into her heat. I forgot all about Wilson and what was waiting for me on the other side of the world and just enjoyed the feel of her soft flesh wrapped around my cock. A million things went through my head as I looked down at her. How could I possibly walk away so soon? It was a question I've never had to ask myself before. "Dammit!" I held her close and rolled onto my back, leaving her seated on my cock. "Ride me." She blushed and bit into her lip; so shy. I don't remember the last time I had a shy woman in my bed. That soft shyness pierced my heart and every protective instinct I had woke up inside me. "What are you doing to me princess? Look at me." I touched her cheek softly, studying her eyes, before pulling her lips down to mine. "Like this." She didn't know what to do so I led her with my hands on her hips until she got the rhythm. She sighed into my mouth
I could almost believe that was true from his actions, because the last time he took me, was supposed to have been the last time because he had to leave. But here we were again and I'm glad because I wasn't ready for him to leave me either. I wonder what would happen if I suddenly became one of those clingy females, who begged him to stay, not to leave me so soon after... Would he though? I think not. I wasn't stupid enough to believe he'd stop being who he is to please me. So if he had to go, no matter how much I wanted him to stay, I knew it would be a wasted effort. But he was here now! I sufficed myself with that thought. The look in his eyes when he finally pulled back said so much, but dare I believe what I saw written there? He must've read the uncertainty in my eyes. "Come." He wrapped his strong arms around me, holding me even closer, like long lost lovers, as he whispered in my ear how much he was going to miss me. It was a heady feeling, knowing that
"I'm cumming inside you." He took my lips roughly then as I felt his cock jerk and throb inside me. I held him that much closer accepting his seed into my body one more time. I hadn't given any thought to birth control all the times he'd taken me throughout the night. The fear gripped me now as I realized how careless we had been, but before it could become a worry, he was taking me close to the fire again. "Fuck, I can't stop fucking you." He thrust into my body so sweetly I stayed on that high. I felt his cock give one last jerk before he slowly pulled out of me. I thought for sure he would leave me this time, but instead he made his way down between my thighs. I watched him as he put his fingers inside of me, and his tongue on my swollen clit. "Ohhh Hank what...?" I pushed myself into his hand as my body twisted with pleasure. The man is a machine. He brought my body back to fever pitch before removing his fingers and replacing them with his tongue. My body hadn't qu
Oh shit! What have I done? I rolled to my back and just laid there in a daze, staring up at the ceiling with the feel of him still in me and on me. I had to get my head on straight and come up with a plan. I knew the repercussions for what I'd done, knew that I could very well lose everything I'd worked so hard for. "Oh you idiot." I covered my face with my hands as I berated myself. I replayed everything from the moment he first climbed into my bed in the dark, until a few minutes ago when he left. I went from hot to cold and back in seconds and that cocoon disappeared to be replaced by sickening fear. Without him here to keep the world out, it all came crashing down on me at once. Did this really happen? How could I have been so irresponsible? No matter how I looked at it I was in a no-win situation. Had anyone seen him come to me? I knew he was under constant watch but surely he'd taken precautions. Not one for burying my head in the sand, I spelt it out f
As I drove through the unfamiliar streets of New York, I replayed the last few years of my life. I thought of everything I'd worked so hard to achieve. Foremost on my mind was the one thing that has been a driving force in my life since I was a young child, left orphaned after one night of unspeakable horror. It was this that had sustained me all these years. My need for justice has taken precedence over everything else until now. I thought of the push to succeed, the many sleepless nights spent planning and plotting even as a young girl. I'd set my course a long time ago and everything I'd done since then until a few short days ago when my eyes met his across a table, had been for one purpose and one purpose only. Now I am being torn in two. My past and my future seem to be colliding and I'm helpless to stop it. Once settled, I tried to prepare myself for the worst, but there was no way. Raw panic sat in my gut until it rose up in my throat and choked me. I ha
I had my phone to my ear before I cleared her building. "Adrien, you got Jaxx?""Yeah he's here what's up? Your message said it was important but was a bit light on details." "I'm going under for a few days, not sure how long exactly. I need you to keep an eye on my woman." "Come again?" They both said the words together and I could imagine them looking at each other like 'what the fuck'. "Who exactly are you talking about?" The slight snicker in Jaxx's voice told me they knew exactly who I meant. "Don't fuck around. Anything happens to her while I'm gone I'm holding you both responsible. She shouldn't have much to do since I'm her primary target, so it should be easy enough to keep tabs on her." "So what you want us to like spy on her?" "Is this fucking high school? No I don't want you to spy on her. I want you to make sure she stays safe.""You know we will. So, your woman huh.""I don't have time to gossip with you right now Adrien and for fu
Christmas in New York! I'd spent the last week showing her the city. I had no idea the stalwart special agent was into this fluffy shit until I heard her giggle like a little girl each time her new sisters brought up Rockefeller Center and the abominable tree. Shit I hadn't even thought of doing in years was now on the menu. When she wasn't dragging my ass all over the city I was parked at my parents' house or one of my brothers. Ma is in heaven. She had them all eating out of her hand, the little sneak and I dared not piss her off or I'd have four angry women on my ass with their shit. She hadn't quite forgiven me for going to see Durant behind her back, and now she had something else to be pissed about. This was the third morning she'd puked up her guts and I'd finally told her that I'd fucked up her birth control. Durant to spite me, refused to put her ass behind a desk, so I found the next best way to get her there. Now I had her impaled on my cock with her
Oh good gracious, crazy man on the loose. He all but dragged me out of the restaurant and I didn't have time to say hello to the young man whom I'd finally remembered. He was an up and coming agent, we'd worked indirectly on a program together a few months earlier and that's why I'd had a hard time placing him. Minimal contact. Things had cooled a little during lunch but I felt his tension once we were leaving and we passed the table. He hadn't said two words to me on the way back to the hotel and I could feel a different kind of tension in the air when he dragged me into the elevator and pulled me down the hallway and into the room. He'd never touched me like this, with that sense of desperation. I didn't complain when he tore my nice blouse or at the way he dragged my slacks off and threw them. I did make a little squeak when he threw me to the bed and came down on top of me. He's so fiercely intense always, that sometimes I'm afraid he'd consume me with all h
I didn't even break a sweat when I drove into the enemy camp. The jovial, laid back husband was gone and in his place was a man ready to tear someone's throat out through their ass. I walked into the building like I knew where I was going, like I'd done it a thousand times. It was surreal to see my face on fucking posters all over the place. These fucks are demented. I ignored the stares and whispers as I headed to the big man's office."I'm here to see Durant." I stopped long enough to tell the secretary in the outer office but didn't wait for her reply."Sir wait you can't go in there." I opened the door and walked in on some kind of meeting. The man himself stood up from behind his desk. I could see surprise written all over his face but he wasn't prepared. "Mancini, what the hell do you want?" That's the best you can do after hunting my ass for ten years?I walked up until I was in his face or as close as I could get with the slab of mahogany between us. The
I covered her head and upper body with mine as glass flew and bullets rained down around us. I'm not one for emotion in the middle of battle, but the fucker was dead, he shot at my fucking wife. What the fuck! I waited for another break in the action and then with my body shielding hers, got her back to my car. "Hank I have to stay with my partner.""Stay your ass in this car I'll be right back." I went around the other side from where we'd come and looked for an opening. The shots had come from outside, closer to the water. There was still a good chance no one was inside with the girl if she was still here. The asshole agent was still out there where I'd left him I was guessing; amateur.I found a door and worked to pry it open. Inside the place was cavernous and the only light came from the moon and the stars through the filthy windows. I didn't have time to comb the place so I closed my eyes and opened up my senses. The first floor was too obvious so I ma
I sat in the room he offered and waited. It wasn't long before he came back with the kid in tow. "I'll take it from here thanks." He huffed a little but closed the door behind him when he left. The kid looked like he was about to shit his pants and I hadn't even started yet. I walked around his chair and stood behind him, crowding him. An old interrogation tactic to put him off center. I wanted his nerves shot by the time I asked him the first question. "Are you ready to go to jail for the rest of your life?" He turned his head and opened his mouth to speak but I shushed him. "Before you say anything, think very carefully. In another hour or so, your friend Sven is going to be released to his parents, leaving you and your little cousin holding the bag. His parents are already making plans to get him off the island and who knows where he'd go into hiding." I didn't know that for sure but I know how that type works. The truth is, unless this was a horse and pony s
I accepted the new information he brought and looked over all the Intel they'd gathered thus far. My mind was already processing and discarding. "You've checked the whole island and you've had divers out there already." I said it more like a statement. "Yes, that's protocol in a situation like this. Plus there were a few sightings near the beach." "What about these boys she was seen with?""There's nothing there." Not the question. I looked up from the report I was reading over and stared him down. "You have these boys in holding?" He didn't like the question and I quite frankly didn't give a fuck. "Yes, but we can't hold them for much longer. Without any evidence of foul play, you know..." Yes I know only too well. Another reason I resent the fuck out of law enforcement. They cater more to the criminal than the victim. Thank fuck I don't suffer from that stupidity. "And why have you come to the conclusion that they're not involved?" I almost expected him to
I leapt off the bed and headed for the closet where I kept my travel kit with everything I could possibly need for a job. "How long?" I didn't have to iterate, I knew he'd read between the lines."Four hours. She went on holiday with some kids from college. They went out on the town and she just disappeared from the club they went to. The girls didn't take any chances and sounded the alarm right away so at least we have that on our side." "The plane's ready I presume.""Yes, Tony has the location, you're heading to Bonaire. I don't have to tell you how important this is to me. Cassandra is a flighty little thing but she's dear to my heart. Bring her home Hank." "Send me everything you have." There had been a batch of murders involving cruise ships in the last couple years. Something not many people knew about since it wasn't broadcasted for obvious reasons. The assholes that be, were more interested in the money tourism brought in than preserving lives. I
"That wasn't so bad now was it?" I was dancing ma around the makeshift dance floor under the marquee she'd had set up in the garden behind the family home. The wedding I'd expected to have at the most ten people had turned into about seventy-five. Don't ask. Since Cierra had no real family, Gracie was her only guest and the rest were distant relatives and friends of the family that ma had dug up from somewhere. "No, it came together quite well for all the notice you gave me.""You loved it. I had no doubt that you could do it." I kissed her cheek and spun her around, making her laugh like a little girl. "She's lovely Hank, I'm proud of you.""How come?" That was an odd thing to say."Because for the longest time I despaired of you ever finding the right girl and settling down. The girls and I had many discussions about it and we all agreed, you were a mess when it comes to women." "What girls? Sabra and Star?" Figures. "And what was wrong with the women I
Whatever, I'll just have to talk her into staying put in the city. We pulled into the short driveway of the ranch style house just as the sun was going down. A middle-aged man came to the door and looked out. I would've known him anywhere since I'd spent a lot of time researching all the players in this game. I probably had a better dossier on them than they had on me, something for which I was eternally grateful since it was about to come in handy. He recognized me as soon as I stepped out the car and I could see the indecision written on his face. Fucker wanted to go inside and slam the door in my face, but the intrigue of my very presence kept him where he was. "I'm guessing no introductions are necessary, but you might be wondering what I'm doing here.""You could say that. What is this? Have you come to turn yourself in?" He grinned in a way only a demented spook could but I didn't return it."No." I let that sink in until the stupid look dropped off his face.
