DARLENEI shivered when I placed my back carefully against the polished brick tile of the cell, keeping my eye carefully on the crazed-looking woman that had been muttering to herself on the other side of the room.I hiccuped, wiping at the tears that streamed down my face that had dwindled to whimpers as I wrapped my hands around myself, trying to still the quiver that wobbled my bottom lip.“Rise and shine pussy cat!” Detective Bowler cried loudly, startling me enough that I jolted, whipping my head to the hallway outside the wrought-iron bars just in time to catch his baton knocking against the steel and setting my teeth on edge.I hadn't slept a wink the other night, the memory of the bloody scene in the penthouse attic bathroom plaguing my dreams enough that I woke up screaming multiple times, tossing and turning on the uncomfortable prison bunk, encased in my own sweat.“You bastard, let me out of here! My husband would never let you get away with this!” I growled, scrambling to
ALEXANDERI rapped my fingers against the hard leather of the steering wheel, aware that my breathing was ragged, with the muscles under my eyes twitching as I watched the station’s glass front doors.Dennis’ warm hand brushed against my thigh and I resisted the urge to smack his hand away, feeling the darkness welling inside me shift only a little.“Xander,” He started before I cut in coldly, feeling my lips curl with distaste.“What the hell is taking so long?” I muttered, ducking my head to peer through the glass at the string of blue-uniformed officers milling around, their teeth flashing even from the distance.A jolly good time they were having while I sat outside and waited for the ring chief to work his mysterious brand of fairy magic.Fucking Bullshit. It was my thing with Prince Charles, the way he did things casually like it wasn't my wife’s life we were talking about.“Uh, Xade, you might not want to look now, but I could have sworn I just saw your brother shake hands with
DARLENE“I’m afraid you can't leave the station, Ma’am, we are under strict instructions to keep all suspects on lockdown,” Detective Bowler boomed, tipping his dirty brown fedora at us and winking at me when I raked my gaze up to his clear downturned eyes.I had watched disbelievingly when Prince Charles fished the bunch of keys I’d seen the detective fingering on his belt hoop from behind him, a wave of heat rolling up my neck and cheeks as I wiped the tears from my face, straining to my feet and leaping into his arms as sobs wracked my frame.“You came! I can't believe you came!” I gasped, laughing through my tears and feeling the man’s hand hesitate behind me before patting me lightly on the back, almost as though he wasn't used to physical contact.“Alexander’s out front,” Prince Charles coughed and I sputtered away from him to give him a wide-eyed stare, feeling my heart hammer in my ribs when I saw the way his deep purple eyes stared at me intensely and I wrapped a hand around m
ALEXANDERI just about heard the distant chow of freaking church bells towing in the silence that followed after Prince Charles had spoken.I couldn't believe I hadn't thought about it! I rumbled out a bitter laugh, keeling over and letting the whips of delight shudder through my frame and feeling the officers around me shift uneasily as tears sprung from my eyes.“Why, Charles, one would think you have been living at the McKenzie Manor for years! It’s his favorite too! That lime green covert!” I added, watching Frederick whip his head to face me out of the corner of my eye, backing into the throng of blue-uniformed officers off to the side, where the ugly detective was standing, a mask of confusion on his face.“Shut up Xander,” Fredrick’s deep tenor blurted and I turned my head to give him a fake expression of confusion, feeling the delirium that had been eating away at my brain take full control.“Why, where did you go yesterday? In that green car? I could have sworn I saw something
FREDERICKThe cold bite of the night air chipped at my face as I got out of the station so I was positive the tip of my nose had gotten red.“Bloody hell,” I growled under my breath when the sky cracked with lightning suddenly and lashed at me with cold rain so that I hung my hands over my head and sprinted to the black vintage Volkswagen I had gotten myself, clapping the drops away and turning the AC up to heat.Detective Bowler had not been able to pleased that our plan completely flopped, cursing up a storm and barking at me like some goddamned fire-breathing dragon.My hands shook on the steering wheel as I watched the rain blur my view of the granite street and sidewalk, the calming sound of the pit-patter clashing on the roof doing more to unsettle me than anything.“I'm not sure about this anymore Stefan...I can't put myself out there like this,” I spurted, holding my breath as a silence so loud it was deafening filled the other end.“Like what?” The umbrella man barked and I jo
DARLENEAlexander had not stopped fretting over me since I got back from the station and I was loving it more than I thought I would.“Babe, I'm fine, REALLY, I don't need you to massage my back for the hundredth time,” I chirped, rolling my eyes when he leaned over and pouted his full pink lips, his dark hair falling over his face as he rose over me in a way that my breath seizing for an unhealthy amount of time before he pressed a chaste kiss to my lips.“Sorry, I can't help myself,” Alexander whispered, moaning when I moved my hips from the bed to press another kiss to his lips and watched him flash me a bright smile that made my panties wet.I splayed my turkey hands on his muscular arm, watching the ripple of muscle flex under my touch with a sense of pride. I had what other women could only dream of, it made something warm swell in my chest before Alexander’s father coughed loudly in the doorway and I broke away from the man like a teenager who had just been caught pants down by
ALEXANDEREvery muscle in my body seized as I watched her undress.Darlene paused when she turned around after shooting the jiggling globes of her ass out toward me.I knew exactly how the full globes rippling felt in my palm, soft. The indents on her spine where the small of her back tapered to the voluptuous curves made me weak in the knees with desire so that I found myself growling, unable to take it anymore, and striding over to the woman.I watched Darlene’s eyes fly open as I hooked a hand firmly on her neck, driving her into the sheets and letting the fat mushroom head of my cock drive sweetly into her, feeling my ass cheeks clench at the wetness of her sex.“Fuck Dar, you drive me crazy,” I groaned, pulling out a little and ramming into her again, hooking my hand under her slender body when she moaned and arched her tits out to me.“Oh god,” Darlene’s whispered moan caressed my ear when I caught one puffy nipple between my lips, feeling my dick twitch inside her as I sucked o
STEFAN MCCOYThe cracked ridges in my wide open mouth tore when I relaxed the shit-eating grin on my face, flipping between the crisp photos of Alexander and the pale woman leaving the station.“Is this everything Markov?” I growled, glancing at the barrel-chested assassin standing before me with his hands crossed and his eyes hidden behind the dark rims of the windbreaker sunglasses he had plastered to his forehead.“Yes sir, everything is going according to plan, Alexander blackmailed the blonde man, like you had said he would.” Markov gritted, the humongous ball of his forehead scrunching with ridges when he frowned.I took a moment to look him over, noting how his black suit rose a little above his wrist, tight on his bulky biceps.Markov looked like the human equivalent of a large, black fridge. It was why I used him for most of my hits.“Keep an eye on the little brother, you may leave,” I growled, watching him bow low before turning to leave the statuesque room and letting his
