All Chapters of Contracted Husband : Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

“Sir,” Nathan says as he passes him and disappears down the steps.“Dad,” I say nervously. “I thought you were meeting with—”He doesn’t let me finish, shoving past me without saying a thing. Doesn’t have to. The disappointment is written all over his face.I’m left staring after him as he goes into his room and slams the door in his wake.Nathan Ihastily make my way downstairs. Above me, I hear Natalia say something to her father, and a moment later, a door slams.Though I commend him on his self-control, Morrison’s rage was clearly evident in his blue eyes. I’d feel the same way if I found a strange man with my daughter and suspected simply by looking at her that he’d been all over her.If it hadn’t been for Gunn’s call, he would have more than suspected. He would have had visual confirmation. I would have been deep inside Natalia , pounding into her. Fucking her there, watched by all those eyes she’s so perfectly captured on paper, including those of a woman who doesn’t deserve he

A dangerous situation they don’t want to get involved in.“Why do these fucks always live in marinas?” Mata asks, peering out the window when we arrive at the Flag’s Point Marina on the East River. “Andre thought it made him the shit. Fucking diesel smell made me gag.”“I don’t know if Kroos lives here,” I say when the guards let us in, unable to imagine that a wealthy prick like Kroos would choose to reside in a place like this.I scan the area, noting the canoes and kayaks piled high on one side, pallets and gas cans on another. There’s a dock farther ahead, but the boats there are mostly skiffs or pontoons.My phone buzzes just then.“Stay here,” ColWill orders. “Kroos wants only me and Gregorio. Do not attack until we have Carina. Or the shit hits the fan. Whatever comes first.”Everyone in the Tahoe watches in intent silence as Luca exits the first SUV. Gunn, who had been with him, was dropped off before we reached the gates. He slunk out into the darkness, his firearm in hand,

Without hesitation, we both go toward the dock. But by the time we arrive, Kroos and the woman have left.“This one’s got a key!” Mac jumps onto one of the skiffs.I untie the rope from the bollard, and he takes off as soon as I’m on board. We ride through the dark waters, searching, listening for the slightest hint of where they went. Minutes pass like hours, painfully slow, because we’re aware that with every second we lose, Kroos gains miles.“There,” I say, pointing to where Kroos ’s boat has been tied to a post in a marina a mile mac maneuvers our skiff close enough that I can jump onto the dock and tie the rope.He peers left and right. “I can’t tell which way they went.”I look too, unable to see any movement. Everything is quiet. Almost too quiet. Either no one is home or everyone is asleep. Third option is, they heard the sound of battle and locked themselves in.“We have to split up,” I say.He nods, then with his gun pointed at a downward angle but ready to shoot, he heads

“I won’t change my mind, Em. Don’t try. I’m a good judge of character, and that man reeks of trouble.” He’s agitated, his breathing hard, nostrils flaring.I feel my own temper rising until I notice the lines around his eyes. They’re not deep enough. People always compliment my handsome father on his youthful appearance. But the lack of lines is more a reminder that he hasn’t laughed enough in his life. Kind of like Nathan .It’s those lines that have me deflating and biting my tongue to keep from blurting out something I won’t be able to take back. I could never hurt this man that I love so much. He gave me all the smiles, even when he didn’t have enough for himself.“If I’m desperate for anything,” I say, “It’s foryouto fall in love.” I stand and take my dishes to the sink, then kiss the top of his head on the way out of the Kitchen Noah said he’d pick me up tomorrow at seven. Damn, I should have gotten his number. After the discussion with Dad, the last thing I want is for him to

He slams my arms over my head, transferring both my wrists into one of his hands. His other hand roves down my body, shoving my wet shirt over my breasts. I gulp in oxygen when he breaks the kiss and bends down to take my wet nipples into his mouth. He moves from one to the other, grazing his teeth over them, sucking hungrily.The sting he creates with each bite sends an electrical current straight to my core, making me ache. Making me want more than this.As if he needs to touch me there as much as I need him to, he slides his palm over my thigh and under my shorts. His fingers easily slip past my panties and press inside me. I buck, wanting to grab onto something as he begins to thrust, but he keeps my arms pinned.I whimper when he pulls out of me, but he shuts me up with his mouth on mine once again. If possible, his kiss is even more demanding than before. He sucks on my tongue and robs me of breath.Suddenly releasing my arms, he brings both his palms to my ass and lifts me. I i
