She breaks out of the hold and knees me in the groin, making me grunt in pain. And then she flips our positions, so that she has my arms in a hold. "No, I can keep at this all fucking day."I smirk. "So can I, but I'd much rather have you on your back with your legs spread."She releases me then, shoving me forward and putting distance between us. "You make me sick."The five minute warning bell in the gym chimes at that moment, the sound of which only ignites the excitement inside of me. The bell in the gym is early to ensure students can change for their next class. "Time for detention, Vasquez."I turn to the rest of the class. "That's it for today. Get your asses dressed and go to your next class."The students slowly move into the changing room until there's only me and Adrianna left. Only then do I turn to face her again, my heart pounding frantically in my chest. "So, you think it's okay to chat and laugh in my class?"Adrianna places her hands on her hips. "Azira was right. Ev
Coach looms over me, staring at me with those dark eyes burning with a desire that threatens to destroy me. My arousal glistening from his mouth and making heat spread through my veins.It's becoming clear that he's never going to let this go, and a part of me doesn't want him to. A part of me wants him to keep pursuing me, as it makes me feel wanted for the first time in my life. Yet the mere thought of giving him my virginity makes me sick to the stomach.He's teasing me and playing with me until I'm so desperate I'm begging him, but I won't be that girl. I may want to come more than anything right now, but there's no way in hell I'm begging him."Such a good girl," He praises, watching me intently.I squirm on the bleacher, waiting for him to return between my thighs. It's not unusual that I have a man on his knees for me. It's just that normally I'm the one who has brought him to his knees with my combat skills."What are you waiting for?"He narrows his eyes. "I'm taking in this
The staff room is empty, which isn't usual early morning before class. I pull my cell phone out, wondering if I've missed a memo about a meeting or something.There's nothing from Oak, so I message Bly to find out where he is.Me: It's a ghost town in the staff room. What's going on?Bubbles appear instantly as he types back.Bly: There's a meeting in the grand hall.I clench my jaw as it's the first I'm hearing of it. Sighing heavily, I head out of the staff room toward the hall, intending to take my frustration out on Oak for not telling me about it.When I walk into the room, he's standing at the front talking about mathematics. I know he fired Jameson for being an asshole about his marriage to Eva. I don't think she was the only one that thought it was wrong; she was the only one that had the balls to tell him to his face.I can't say anything because I've had far more students in my bed than he has. Bly is near the front, but I take a seat nearer the back not to disturb whatever
Bly and I walk into the diner, and instantly I groan. My intention for coming here was to get some space from students, and yet there's a huge group of seniors in the diner."What are students doing here in the week?"Bly shrugs. "Maybe Oak gave them permission for a birthday or something."It happens, but he could have mentioned it earlier when we decided to come here. "Great.""What is up with you?" Bly asks as he sits down at our normal table. "Students being at the same place never bugs you normally."I shake my head. "Nothing.""Is it because you can't get Vasquez to fuck you?"I growl at that and open my menu. "No. It has nothing to do with her."Bly nods. "That's lucky, as she's here tonight."I freeze when he says that Adrianna is here, at this diner. My brow furrows as I scan the group of kids, none of whom are her usual friends she hangs out with. And he's right, she's sitting facing our way, chatting to Rosa Cabello."What the fuck is she doing here?""I think it's Rosa's b
The bus stops in a clearing at the center of the woods where we're going hunting. It's the first time we've been on an excursion like this, and I'm a little surprised that they think it's a good idea. Getting together a bunch of mafia heirs and arming them seems like a recipe for disaster.Unfortunately, Coach is the one leading this trip, and he won't stop looking at me in a way that sends a shiver down my spine.He stands, eyes lingering on me as he clears his throat."The rules are simple. I'm going to pair each of you off and you will walk the woods together." His eyes narrow. "No one will split up under any circumstances. You will return here in three hours with whatever kills you make. And under no circumstances do you shoot your classmates.""No fun," Nik says.Coach glares at him, shaking his head. "If you've got a problem with the rules, Kushev, I'll send you back to the academy on your own."Nik falls silent."Here are the pairs," he says, and I hold my breath, knowing that
I squeeze my thighs together, and in that moment, I wish I wasn't wearing pants. The need to touch myself clawing at me. Any moment one of my classmates could catch me sucking Coach's cock, and that thought only arouses me more.He slides into my throat like he did in the gym. Only this time he hasn't brought me to my climax and turned me into a desperate slut. This time, I'm doing it almost willingly and it's a sickening prospect."That's it, baby. Take it to the back of your throat." His fingers slide into my hair and yank hard, forcing his cock even deeper. "Your throat is so fucking good, but I bet it's not half as amazing as your cunt."My entire body shakes with need as I feel a pressure building inside of me, even without touching myself. Every part of my body is sensitive, and my nipples are hard peaks longing to be sucked.I pull off of his cock. "Please, Coach. I need you to touch me."He smirks down at me, looking a little evil. "Are you begging me, Vasquez?"The question b
Two weeks go by without incident after our session in the woods, as I try my best to stay away from Coach and he keeps making suggestive comments, but no attempt to take me against my will again.I tap my feet impatiently on the tile floor as I sit, freezing my ass off on poolside, waiting for Azira to arrive. One thing I hate more than anything is tardiness, and she knows it, too.We agreed to meet here at four o'clock. It's now ten minutes past and my patience is wearing thin. I hear the door to the pool. "Finally!"Azira looks flustered as she dashes toward me. "Sorry, I was in detention with Luigi."It's one thing after another with her lately. "Not again. What did you do this time?"Her cheeks are more flushed than usual. "I was doing my anatomy assignment in law class.""Does that mean you're too sore to swim?" I ask, looking at her through narrowed eyes."No, he gave me an essay to write."Azira is practically the color of a beetroot now and I wonder if something is going on be
"What are you waiting for, Bly?" I ask as I clap him on the shoulder.Bly moves away. "Keep your hands to yourself.""Sorry, forgot how touchy you are." I wink at him. "Come on, let's have fun." I stride into the bar toward the table where Oak and the three girls are already sitting. Adrianna has her back to me."Good evening, ladies," I say as I sit my ass down next to Adrianna and smirking at her. "How are you tonight?"My question is directed at Adrianna, but it's Eva who replies. "We're all great."I clench my jaw and stare at Adrianna, making her shuffle uncomfortably next to me. After the conversation we had earlier that afternoon, she's no doubt stewing over the revelation that she's indeed going to sleep with me if she doesn't want people to find out she's a traitor to the Vasquez cartel. Grabbing a glass from the center and the bottle of scotch, I pour myself some."You two are both late," Oak says, glaring at Bly, as he expects it from me.Bly shrugs. "Sorry, got held up.""
Archer holds my hand as we pad barefoot through the sand, the sun just setting beyond the horizon and casting a warm, orange glow over the beach.Natalya's wedding was beautiful. And even though I still can't believe she's married the man that tormented her for years, I'm happy that she is happy."It's beautiful, isn't it?" I ask, stopping to watch as the sun dips slowly lower.Archer smiles at me. "Shall we sit down and watch?"I nod in response. "Sounds good." I sit down in the sand and he sits behind me, placing his legs on either side of my thighs and his arms around my waist. "This is nice," he murmurs into my ear.I lean back into him. "It is.""Did you enjoy the wedding?" He asks."It was beautiful, even though I still can't quite believe that Nat ended up with Elias after he was such a bully."Archer moves my hair to the side and skims his lips over the back of my neck. "Is it any different to you being with me after I blackmailed you?"I stiffen at the reminder. "Not sure it'
Motherfucker.I search the closet for something to pick the bedroom lock with. If Archer is facing my father and his goons, then I need to be by his side.Another shot echoes through the air, making me tense. I work even harder to focus on the lock, knowing I need to get out of this room. Finally, the lock clicks and I'm thankful I took the class on safe breaking two years ago when it was being taught.Quickly, I run out of the room and down the corridor, hardly thinking about what I'm doing.My heart skips a beat when I see my father and Archer standing outside of the window, each pointing a gun at one another. "No." I rush out of the cabin without a second thought. "Stop!""Adrianna," my father growls, pointing the gun at me. "What the fuck are you doing?"I freeze at the other end of his gun, knowing that he would without a doubt shoot me dead. "I'm not coming home to Mexico," I say.He growls. "Like hell you aren't.""I don't want to be married off to some mobster.""No, you want
I pull my jeep off the main road in the middle of nowhere, driving down an unmarked track. It may be secluded, but I know the path to this place like the back of my hand. After all, I spent just under two years living up here in my cabin.I notice Adrianna shudder."Are you cold?" I ask.She shakes her head. "No, this place just gives me the creeps.""The creeps?" I never thought of it as creepy."Yeah, like maybe you are actually a serial killer and this was your elaborate plan all along."I laugh, shaking my head. "You have a wild imagination." The woods open up to a clearing where my cabin is, and it's not just any old cabin. It's modern and sophisticated."Wow, do you own this place?" Adrianna asks.I nod. "I bought it when I needed to remain low while my family was looking for me." It was a difficult time in my life. One fraught with loneliness and a little too much alcohol, but this place saved me. "It's actually how I met Oak. He owns a cabin near to here and we met while we we
I approach Adrianna, who is standing with all her friends. My nerves are fried, mainly because I'm practically kidnapping the princess of the Vasquez Cartel. Thankfully, I saw Damien Vasquez leave ten minutes ago in his armored SUV. I'm pretty sure he hardly even said a word to Adrianna after the ceremony.I clear my throat. "Adrianna, can I have a word?""Stil not giving up?" Natalya teases.It's clear no one knows about us among her friends, except for Azira, and that was my fault.She meets my gaze and nods. I can tell from the look on her face that she's just as nervous as me. "Sure."I nod toward the exit of the hall and she follows me out of it."What's up?" she asks, as I lead her into an empty classroom and shut the door."I just wanted to double check you are all set for the plan?"She nods. "Of course. I'm packed, only essentials and no tech.""Good. And your father has gone. I watched him leave."She purses her lips. "I don't even know why he bothered to come. He didn't say
My father is standing at my door half an hour before the ceremony."Hey, Adrianna." He looks at my outfit. "You look well."I swallow hard. "Thanks for coming." I glance down the corridor. "Where is mom?"He shakes his head. "Your mother couldn't make it."It hurts a bit, I must admit. Out of the two of them, I'd expect my mom to be here over my father. She may not have ever been emotionally supportive, but she's always been a little less cold than him."Oh, is she busy?""No, but I don't enjoy traveling with your mother. You know that."I clench my jaw. "I know that." He doesn't like to travel with her because he likes to pay hookers whenever he stays away from home. The man disgusts me, but my mother isn't much better. Their marriage is a sham, and it has been all my life. Exactly what I want to avoid by escaping, as that was my future. My mom was married by arrangement to my father, hence the toxic relationship between them."Shall we get going then?" I say.He nods. "Lead the way.
Adrenaline has been racing through my veins since I woke this morning.It's sickening, but today is the day. Graduation is this afternoon and then all my friends and I will go out to celebrate. My father agreed to my plan and told me he'd booked into a hotel twenty miles away in the nearest city, as he's above the little inn in town and the motel near here. It actually makes the plan easier, as he won't be nearby when I make a run for it.However, after the celebrations are through, Archer and I will disappear. Our friends will know that we've left for good, but not where we are going. No one knows that, not even I do. I've let Archer figure the entire thing out and where I'm going to go.It's been hard trusting him in this way, as I've always relied on myself alone. He can't disappear with me, though. He has a life here at the academy, and so he's going to set me up with my new life and then leave. That's the part I've been trying to avoid thinking about entirely.I'm not sure how I'
I walk up to the door of Archer's apartment, my heart thumping at a hundred miles an hour.Am I crazy for being here?Perhaps. I knock on the door and wait a few moments and then I hear the thud of footsteps descending the stairs. Archer opens it and smiles at me with a smile that could stop most women's hearts. "You are here."I smile back at him. "I didn't get murdered.""I'm glad," he says, stepping aside to allow me in.I pause for a moment, knowing that now I'm coming to him of my free will rather than because he's blackmailing me. I'm not sure how to feel about that. It changes everything.His brow furrows. "Are you going to stay there or come in?"I purse my lips. "Still trying to decide."He laughs and grabs my hand, yanking me into the apartment and against him. "Don't be an idiot.""I'm normally the one saying that to you."He leads me up into his apartment, where he has a table set with candles alight. "I was prepared since I hadn't heard of any murders on campus." There is
My plan to get my revenge on Archer is backfiring.Why the hell do I feel so excited whenever I see him?And when he touched me earlier by the stream, he was trying to comfort me, but his touch ignited butterflies fluttering in my stomach and made my head spin. He keeps talking about feelings and how he wants us to continue after I graduate, which is insane.I can't work out if he's only saying it because I've never admitted I want him. All the while, I've made sure I keep detached and cold, even when he talks about his feelings.As I walk into the academy, I'm ambushed by my father. "Where have you been?"I cross my arms over my chest. "I went for a walk. Is that a crime?"He sighs heavily. "I'm here to take you back home."My brow furrows. "But what about the academy?" I ask, wondering why he didn't come to get me during spring break, especially as he said he had a meeting set out for me the week before.He yanks my wrist and drags me into an empty classroom, slamming the door behin
I sense Adrianna isn't used to relying on anyone for anything."Seriously, Adrianna. Let me help." I need to help her as I need to know her plan. She's so pigheaded. It wouldn't surprise me if she disappeared forever and I couldn't find her. It's the only way to ensure I keep tabs on her."Fine, you can help."I smile, relief coursing through my veins. "Good, as I have quite a few ideas.""Such as?"I pat my lap for her to come and sit on it.Her eyes narrow, but she sits anyway."Your father is coming to graduation, and that's a complication, but not the be all and end all. I mean, you dictated to your father before, so do it again.""What do you mean?""Tell him that you are going to celebrate with your friends. They're all going to be celebrating, right?"She nods. "Yeah.""Then tell him to book a motel and you'll leave with him the next morning."A crease forms in between her brows. "I'm uncertain it will work, but I can ring him beforehand. It's an option, I guess.""Well, tell m
