All Chapters of Alpha Team - The First To Fall: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Rose’s POV I don’t know when or how it happened, but somehow, I have ended up in Phoenix’ lap.His fingers trail lazily up and down my back as he strokes absentmindedly. It’s been less than a day since he brought me back here, and my head is a mess. I wish I could talk to Granny Gwynn about everything. Not last night, I’m putting that in a locked box in the back of my mind forever. I want to talk to her about how I’m questioning everything I’m feeling, everything I think I’m sensing from him. I thought I had chosen a movie, but it turns out this is a series, which I think I like more because there is so much more to watch. I like that the girl in it isn’t one of those whiney female leads. They really rub me up the wrong way, especially in my books.I sometimes wonder how I would react if I was my favourite character, I hope I wouldn’t embarrass myself, but deep down, I think I’d probably moan a little before getting over myself. “I’m surprised you like this kind of stuff.” I

Rose’s POV He called my pussy pretty. I never thought of it as something that could be pretty, but those words coming from him do things to me that I can’t explain. “I need to taste you.” His voice is raspy and he lifts me off his lap, placing me carefully in the seat next to him. The way he handles me, so gently, makes me smile. He is so big, so strong, and it seems like a complete contrast to his nature.It feels like it takes forever for him to put the footrest down and kneel in front of me. I was so close to coming on his lap, and honestly, I’m a little pissed he stopped.“Put your legs up here.” He instructs as he lifts my feet to rest on the backs of the seat in front of me. I’m spread wide, completely open, and on full display. You would think I would be at least a little bit shy, but the ball of tension low in my belly overrides that. I need a release, and I need it now.I feel his beard graze my thighs, then his fingers spreading my pussy, and finally his tongue is on m

Rose’s POV Phoenix is a virgin! At first I was sure he was joking, but the serious look on his face, and the tone of his voice when he told me he would never lie to me, made me realise that I might have struck a chord with my disbelief. You just don’t ever hear of forty-three year old virgins. Especially not ones who look like him. Oh shit, he’s forty-three. He’s older than my dad would have been. He doesn’t seem bothered by the age difference. I guess I’m not either, he is my Phoenix, I’ve known him half my life. Deep down I don’t think it would matter to me if he was twenty-three or sixty-three, but won’t his brothers give him a hard time, or anyone really.“What’s on your mind, baby? I can practically see the cogs turning.” His finger runs down between my breasts, leaving a smouldering trail in its wake. His touch is so distracting and I wait to see where he is headed. When he stops, dipping his finger in my navel, I get my thoughts together.“I was just thinking about what the

Rose’s POV Opening my eyes, they feel scratchy from crying, but I feel so much better after letting out those emotions I’d been bottling up all week.“Hi, beautiful. Good nap?” Phoenix smiles down at me, giving me a gentle squeeze and a soft kiss on the corner of my mouth. I always knew he was softer than he looked, especially with me, but I never imagined he would be so tender. “I’m feeling much better. I think everything just came bubbling up and spilled over. Sorry I’m such a mess.” I whisper. “Now you listen to me.” He takes hold of my chin and turns my head so I’m looking right up at him. Something inside me flutters to life as his eyes burn right into me.“You are not a mess. You have been to hell and back this week, and I’m proud of you for coming out the other side. You are mine Rose. Always have been, always will be. Now that you have allowed me to have a little piece of you, I will not let you go. You consume me, Rose. Thoughts of you keep me up at night, watching over yo

Rose’s POV Thirty minutes ago I was naked in his arms, sleeping like a baby, feeling safe and happy and like all of my dreams had come true. Now it’s like the world has been flipped upside down and a dream has become a waking nightmare. I can feel the tension rolling off him in thick, heavy waves and he is holding me so tight I think I’m going to have ten little bruises from his fingers. The sombre expressions on his brothers faces only makes my stomach drop further and why can’t I stop shaking? Whatever they have to say can’t be good.“From yourself?” Why would I need to be protected from him? Phoenix would never hurt me. He would chew off his own arm before hurting me. That’s about the only thing I’m certain of right now.“When we were little, before we were even a year old, Jackson, Ranger, Ryder and I were taken from our parents.” “Stolen.” Jackson interjects. Phoenix nods, sighs, then takes a deep breath before continuing.“We were raised by a secret government agency in a com
