“I need to leave, kitty.” Kissing her, I roll her over. Her smile is soft and delicate.“See you in two weeks, Master.” Her hands grasp mine, pulling me to her, her lips pushing against mine as she does.“See you in two weeks, Kitty.” Climbing out of bed, she lies smiling, watching me. I walk to the shower, get cleaned up and dressed. I walk out to find her standing by the door, her hand on the door frame blocking me.“Kitty, I don’t have time for this.” Going to walk past her, she moves to step in my way. What is she doing now? She never does this.“Seriously, kitty, if I miss my flight, you will be punished, and not in a good way.” Stepping to the other side, she quickly moves to block me again. Sure, I could pick her up quickly and move her, but where would be the fun in that?“Would Master really leave unsatisfied?”I feel like rolling my eyes at her right now, but I tell her not to, so I better not. Standing, I look at her, I have twenty minutes to leave the house, and she is blo
Getting in, there is a bloke sitting waiting. He is big, not as big as Jackson or me, but big. He stands up, his hand going to his head, saluting me.“Boss, I am Maxwell.”Nodding to him, I realise he is Maxwell and clearly had seen images to know I am the team commander. “Welcome, Maxwell. Please relax and sit. This is Jackson, Troy, Alexander and Joel. We will debrief at the base, then go to the port.” He nods, sitting down, the guys welcoming him. I don’t think I will like this one.Something tells me he isn’t going to make this mission easier. Maybe it is the name? All I have in my mind is Max and those images of Alena. Sure this guy isn’t him, but he has the same name. Well did, as Max had his name changed. No, Max was Max, this guy is Maxwell. I need to try to forget that. Getting to the base, we have an hour spare. Sitting we talk, explaining a bit about us, so Maxwell knows who we are. He sits listening, nodding and not commenting much."So, Maxwell, is that your preferred nam
Waking up, I get straight to work, writing out reports of what happened, everyone in the team doing the same, the day spent writing every detail of that day.“Right, Maxwell, you will be dropped at the base. The commander there will watch over you. Guys, by the time we land, we will get to the church with 20 minutes spare, so move it.” Everyone gets up, the journey back, everyone is quiet, knowing now the mission will be a lot longer when we come back. Jackson is lucky I got this time off because they wanted us to stay and sort out the mess Maxwell caused.However, even they are not heartless and make him miss his own wedding. His face is a mess, but he will live and make it, hopefully. On the flight back, we stay quiet, not really sure what to say. Everything has become a mess.I shake my head at Jackson. “You realise, one bit of traffic, and you’re getting married in your gear?” We can’t exactly tell Alena to wait longer while he gets changed.“At least it isn’t jeans and a ripped s
Walking in, it is late. She is sitting on the sofa with a glass of wine. I don’t even know if I should go over and hug her anymore. Sitting down next to her, I look at the tv, waiting for her to talk, yet she stays quiet. All I want to do is wrap my arms around her, pull her to me and kiss her, but it feels wrong, the fact that she is so distant.“So, didn’t go to plan?” She nods at my face. Seeing the marks, I forgot about them and I'm shocked she doesn’t seem concerned. “No, the new guy got into a fight with locals, ran and hid in the truck, leaving us to fight his battles.” She nods, turning her head back to the TV. I feel like I have already lost her. Wrapping my arm around her, I pull her to me. I don’t know what to do to show her how much I still love her.Sitting, I think of ideas, anything that will cause her to react, to say something or to think about fighting for this relationship.“Let’s renew our vows.” I look at her waiting, watching her face, seeing her reaction. She i
Waking up, Maria isn’t in bed, yet I can’t help but smile and think this is us back on track, this is us now finding our love and lust again. Walking downstairs, I hear the faint music, walking in the kitchen, she is cooking, smiling and happy.“Morning, you hungry?” She looks at me, waiting for my response. Why would she deny herself this happiness for so long?“Yes, I should eat. I am expecting the call today about when we go back.” Sitting down, I watch as she cooks, giving me food, we sit and eat, talking and laughing like we used to, and I feel like I have just fallen in love with her all over again, then reality hits.“What time are you leaving?” I look at her, it is Sunday, usually, Sundays I spent with Rebecca, and she spends it with James, so my happiness has just done.“I won’t be going at all, you can still go see Rebecca, but me and James have stopped now.” I want to ask why. I want to find out what happened, but I won’t push. Had she wanted me to know, she would have told
“What the hell? Maxwell just hit Jackson.” Hearing Alexander's voice, my head turns back to them, Jackson holding his hands up, trying to stop him. Maxwell hits him again as we begin to rush over. Jackson clearly not getting involved and refusing to fight. I watch as Maxwell throws something through a window, and people run out of the building.Maxwell runs off. My body jumps up as I hear the guns firing. I can see Jackson hiding behind barrels. He can’t stay there. I need to get him. Going to run to him, Troy holds me back. I need to get to him and make sure he is okay. “Get the fuck off me, Troy.” My hands pull against his grip, Joel now holding me back as well.“No, boss, you can’t run through those bullets.” My arms fight against them. Despair builds in me as I watch everything. The barrels explode, my heart stops, and I feel sick. He won’t have survived that.Pushing Troy away from me, I run towards where Jackson was, looking around the floor for any signs of him, yet there is n
The knocking has us looking up. “That will be my commander.” I don’t get why he is coming. He can’t say Jackson is alive. Walking to the door, I answer it and look at him.“Look, you can beat the shit out of my Marcus. I have to do this. I have to explain everything to her. He is going to be announced dead.”“Can’t you give her time to process it? You really want to talk in there just after I tell her and announce he is getting marked as dead already.” I can’t believe he would do this.“We have to, Marcus. Rules are rules.” I feel myself getting angry. I should let them in because the longer I am standing here alone with him, the more I want to hurt him. Walking back through, they follow me.“Alena Woodcock, I’m Wayne.” He introduces himself, and Alena simply nods. This should have waited. “I came to explain how Max got through.” My arm tightens around Alena, more to stop myself from hitting him because once I hear this, I will want to.“Max had bribed a navy seal called Maxwell to le
Opening the door to our house, I walk in, hearing her move and walk to the top of the stairs, her eyes looking at me, and she knows. She runs to me. Her arms cradle me as I fight back the tears. I can’t be sad. I can’t show this weakness. Yet in Maria’s arms, I know I can, the tears begin to spill over, as I fall to the floor and realise he is gone, and no amount of searching can bring him back.I don’t know how long I have sat here, Maria's arms holding me. It seems like minutes, yet the sun has now risen, my cries stopping, as I look up at her, her face full of sympathy.“I’m sorry, Marcus, I’m sorry. Troy called me and explained.” She looks at me, clearly stuck for words. We all are. None of us can find words to make this any better or seem real.“I need to spend a lot of time at his place, helping Alena and the family. I will keep coming home, though.” I look at her, and she nods, understanding why I must do this. Sitting, I explain again, what happened, her eyes showing pain at t
It is Monday, and Jackson leaves soon, and I know he will hate himself more than he hates Liam right now if he leaves and doesn’t sort it. So protecting my balls, I walk into the now-empty office.“Go see Liam.” He doesn’t even look up to me, he shakes his head and continues signing papers.“I mean it, you go and see Liam, he is the only family you have left Jackson. Go see him sort this shit out, I know Alena is hurting not seeing Georgina.” No one has even communicated, Georgina is sticking by Liam and Alena is sticking with Jackson, it needs sorting.“Go sort it, then Alena can at least say bye to Georgina.” He finally looks up and moves, standing in front of me.“I will, but only for Alena, I have no intention of accepting his apology none at all, but for her, I will.” He walks out, following him I watch him leave, Alena looking at him confused.“He is going to sort things out.” She smiles, clearly, she agrees it needs fixing“I am glad, he leaves in an hour and I don’t want him g
“What are you trying to do to me? Seriously.” I laugh stepping backwards, her body coming towards me,“Stay kitten.” She looks at me with an innocent look and slowly takes another step.“I thought I would come and help Master.” I shake my head looking at her, she is amazing.“Kitten, not happening, I would be fucking you right here for everyone to see all night” Her eyes spark with interest and it just makes me want to do it more.“Fine, no sex, I will just help you.” She steps forward now reaching me, her hand pushing into my jeans and grabbing my cock.“And how do you plan to do that kitten?” Someone walks in, Alena moving closer to my body hiding her hand, he walks past into a cubicle, and she smiles.“Well Master, first I am going to go so slow, so, so slow until you can’t take no more you drag me onto my knees. Then after that, I am going to tease slowly and gently with my mouth until you grab my hair Master, grab it so hard I scream and force me, gagging me” She smiles, does she
Arriving at the club we walk in, Georgina and Liam nowhere in sight.“You stay here Alena, and I will see if I can see them.” I leave her standing against the bar leaning over it ordering drinks, is she doing that on purpose? If she leans forward a bit more, we will see everything!Shaking my head I walk around and can’t see them anywhere, giving up I walk back to the bar, someone is standing with Alena. His arm is around her, and he is laughing. I recognise him, but I don’t like how his hand is slowly sliding down Alena’s back, and she is letting it.Walking over I stand behind them, Alena looking back and smiling.“Marcus, you remember Daz right?” Oh, I do remember Daz, pushing myself in between them his arm folds,“How are you Daz? Any new crazy girlfriends?” He flinches shaking his head.“No, no one yet still holding out for someone if I am honest.” I look at him, acting interested but really I am not, everyone knows that person is Alena.“Oh is she that good she’s worth staying s
“What’s happened?” Moving I hug her, my heart still beating in my chest.“You that is what, tell me next time please, I have been searching the house for twenty minutes, I even called Jackson.” Her arms wrap around me, hell I thought I had lost her, just like that.“Sorry, I didn’t think. I am fine.” She moves back, turning in a circle.“See, nothing wrong, totally fine. Let’s get packing.” Sitting we pack away a suitcase each for the kids. Alena carries on while I go down to cook, walking around the kitchen I make us dinner, Alena coming down looking exhausted already.“Early night for you tonight” She nods not even trying to argue with me, sitting we eat. Alena is quiet the whole time.“Why don’t you go get some sleep now? Honestly, there is no need for you to sit awake.” She nods and walks upstairs, I will even get the kids if she is still asleep, sitting in the living room I turn the tv on, sitting and watching random stuff.The time comes to get the kids, and as much as I want to
I throw on a pair of slacks and walk out, Jackson stood there in the hall waiting.“She came then.”I nod walking towards the room.“Good, the first thud I thought you fell off the bed, then the scream had me worried it was Max but checking her room was empty and the second thud came from your room, so I figured she had.”“Yeah, I walked in turned around, and she was standing there waiting”. I shake my head to myself, I took a risk there doing that to her, a huge risk.“What happened?” He looks at me sensing my doubt.“Nothing bad I don’t think. She just kept pushing for me to be me, to stop hiding and take control.” His eyes widen, he knows what I am like.“She cried, a lot but still didn’t tell me to stop even when I asked her she said not to. I need to clean the room.”“I will help, and you can tell me what you did, and how she reacted, so I know, I won’t do it myself, but if she gets that side from you that is a good thing.” Nodding I open the door walking in we clean the room, Ja
Walking to the office, I sit down with Jackson looking at me.“No way, even just to cuddle she didn't look comfortable. It may take time, if she is like this in a few weeks, it stops." Jackson nods, clearly agreeing her not being comfortable with doing anything with me with Jackson around isn’t good.“Right, bed for me, if you need me just come wake me." Walking out I go back to my room. Closing the door I rest my head against it and sigh. As I turn I stop, my eyes taking her in.“Sorry Master, I thought I should change first.” She stands smiling, her body looking perfect, heels and stockings, but other than that totally naked.“Would you like a picture?” She giggles.“Why would I need a picture when I have you?” I'm frozen, taking her in. I think it's just shock that she just did it, I thought she was in bed. She steps towards me, hitting the play button on the music. Her body stops before me, standing she looks at me, then her hands stroke down my chest, her hips swinging as she beg
Walking in Georgina and Alena are sat talking and looking through printouts of houses.“Right, for you two. I am happy with all these, Georgina has found houses local to each one as well. So you two decide which house and location are the best.” She hands us both a pile of sheets. Sitting at the table with go through them, Alena and Georgina cooking and talking.“You think she is giving a hint here Marcus?” I laugh and nod.“Yeah, considering for every one house in this country there are about four in America.”“Okay, if you're happy with it, throw the ones here away and pick from America?” He looks at me, and I nod.“Hell yeah, no arguing from me, let’s move to America.” Laughing I push the ones from this country away, sitting another hour we look over the pictures getting it down to two.“Alena, Georgina,” Jackson calls them over, sitting at the table Jackson places the two sheets down in front of them“Two houses, you two need to decide this part.” They turn over the sheets, Alena
My alarm wakes me and I get ready, walking down I grab a coffee, when Jackson comes down looking at me.“I’m coming, I left Alena a note, there is no way I am just going to sit and wait.” Grabbing his coat he follows me out, and I drive us the three hours to the court. The trip is done in silence. Nothing right now is right to talk about. I stop outside the court and both of us just look at the doors. Waiting for the other to move. I guess I will. Getting out of the car Jackson follows and we walk into the courtroom and sit down. We sit where they will see us. Jake is brought up first, then Roxy, their eyes catching ours but don't linger as they quickly avert their eyes away.Roxy's barrister stands up."My client made a full confession and admitted to all charges that were put before her. Yes, he was the one who used the gun, but she had no part in the torment of the family, the boxes, and such. She did not intend to physically harm anyone, and Mr Jake O'Brian used her broken mental
“In we go kitten.” I get out of the car walking into the house Alena follows me.“Honestly, after Melanie how did you have the energy for more?” Jackson laughs looking at her, and she looks embarrassed, seriously embarrassed.“Sorry.” Her head lowers, and we both look at her confused.“Oi, we agreed on no apologising, and why would you apologise anyway, you did nothing wrong in fact you did something right you let it happen around people that could see.”“Wait, surely she has at some point let you do that around people?” Jackson shakes his head, and I honestly feel shocked.“Other than at the business, those days when the blinds are up, and staff can check in no, never has she agreed or thrown caution to the wind and let me do what you did, so to me, that is an achievement.” He walks to Alena pulling her to him.“I love you kitten, go get a shower, I will be up in five minutes to cuddle and sleep.” He kisses her gently, and she walks off, turning to me I am ready for some sort of argu
