I bite my lower lip as I progress every step of the concrete stairs, holding the smooth wooden handrail. The Ben Wa balls move around inside me, teasing my vaginal walls. I can feel my underwear is damnably soaked!

I am already panting when I got into the room. There, I have another surprise. Liam takes the liberty of being half naked. Aside from that, my bed is already in a mess because of the rose petals he has spread on the sheet.

I can’t even believe it. Is he being romantic or wanting me to get into the mood or what? This must be a joke! He has no romantic bone in his body as far as I know. Not a single one. He only uses women for sex and his fantasies. One of which is what he’s already doing to me. And I’m so damn pissed off with myself for letting him! On the other hand, I still can’t shake off the excitement of what he’s planning next—as far as I’m concerned.

He smiles wryly as he puts down the bouquet with only the leaves and stems left. He slowly undoes the red ribbon and steps toward me. He gently gags me with it, and I can’t even protest! His eyes are intently looking deep into mine. After that, he unzips my dress and lets it drop to the floor and pushes my lacy white thong all the way down to my feet with sweet slowness.

I gulp some air as I stand there completely naked before him. He bides his time as his eyes caress every inch of my body like he’s admiring a kind of art. I know that I am not that curvy because I’m a skinny woman with big green eyes like a cat, small and upturned nose and full lush lips. I am not even pretty. But right now, he makes me feel that I am sexy and beautiful.

He slightly bends his knees and easily carries me to the center of the bed. Not a moment later, he takes off the remaining of his clothing, and his entire nakedness makes me in awe, admiring him.

Shit! No wonder women are so crazy about him and do his bidding every single time.

Like you did? my own mind mocks.

It seems that I’m going to be the new addition to that string of women in his life.

Not to mention, his very masculine self and ego, his dick is like a giant and commanding on its own!

He stands there so proud, letting me ogle his lean and muscled body, including his… yeah, cock.

Shit! He’s massive! It makes my throat go dry and my heart pump so hard against my rib cage.

He crawls into the bed and hovers above me on all fours for a moment before he dips his head to bite my lower lip. His strong hands guide my two hands to be pinned beneath my own body, and then, his lips latch on one peach nipple at a time. My back arches to this new sensation and a low moan escapes my throat.

Oh, God! It’s so good! Why is it like this?

Liam ardently kisses my breasts and down my navel and further down to the V area of my slim body. He spreads my legs wider using his hands, bending my knees up so my feet are planted on the mattress that is covered with lavender-colored bed sheet. He slowly pulls the string of the Ben Wa balls to take them out of my pussy, safely and gently. My hips squirm due to the sensation, and I groan at the same time.

He looks at my face as he puts the balls aside.

“Ava…” he can only utter and he suddenly looks pale. Has he just realized that I’m still a virgin? A few moments passed by and he’s back to his “normal” self. He starts to rub the nub of my pussy, pinching it.

I whimper.

“I want you wetter, Ava,” he says hoarsely, meeting my eyes. His thumb continues to rub around my sensitive bud.

I can feel myself go wetter by the second while his eyes never leave my center that it makes me blush all over. Afterward, he raises my hips using his two hands, and his dick unceremoniously sinks into the depths of my pussy in one stroke.

I cry and sob as pain registers in my brain. It’s like my throat is being choked when he’s inside me.

He reaches out to caress my cheek and lips. I am even surprised how gentle he does it. He closes his eyes and begins to move, slowly at first.

“Oh, God!” I try to mumble as I groan despite the gag. My hands are still restrained beneath my back.

Liam continues to bury his massive dick into me, deeply and strongly. He moves faster, stronger and deeper as moments go by. All the while, I can’t help myself but moan like a woman possessed. Because after the pain that I endured for some long moments, unnamed pleasure takes over.

“Yes, Ava. Moan, cry, grunt, whimper, groan as much as you like. It’s like music to my ears. I like it when you do that,” he coaxes me, without breaking his fast and fierce pace. He reaches out to pull my gag down my chin to shove his two fingers inside my mouth, gently pulling my jaw lower.

I arch my back to the delicious feeling as he keeps invading my body. The pain has already long subsided, and pleasure is there to stay, which drives me crazy and on edge.

He shifts my position, turning me around to face the bed. I am on all fours when he pushes my back down, forcing me to lean on my elbows. He ties the ribbon around my neck and slowly pulls it. One hand glides behind my lower back and he plunges into me from behind.

“Oh, damn it!” I yelp.

The ribbon buries in my neck every time he pulls it and his cock lunges into my body at the same time.

“Shut up, slave,” he commands as he keeps pumping hard.

I bite my lower lip and moan louder instead. I close my eyes as the new sensation grips my pussy and entire body. The wide girth of his cock creates friction in my pussy walls.

Oh, God! Why does it become addictive?

“Ahh… oohhh!” I groaned that I can’t seem to believe it’s my own voice.

“Yes, that’s it. That’s it. I love you when you’re submissive like this, Ava.” He pumps harder, and I hear him grunt.

“I can’t take it anymore, Liam,” I plead him, crying. It’s the first time that I feel like I’m going to blow up into pieces.

“Hold on, Ava!” he cajoles me. He lets go of the ribbon to reach down and rub my pussy’s neglected nub.

I moan some more, louder each time.

Liam’s breathing is labored like mine, I notice. He drives in and out more of my body even more forcefully, faster and stronger than ever before. I let out a prolonged scream, and my body seems to convulse as I release my lovejuice.

He grunts when he spills his seeds inside me, too. He completely buries up to the hilt, and I moan once again.

He goes still for a few moments before I feel his gentle caress on my buttocks. He leans forward to nip my shoulder, and I wince in pain.

The jerk! He just brands me.

I look at his face with fiery green eyes, and he lies down the bed, bringing me down with him. His huge dick is still stuck inside me. Nonetheless, I awkwardly feel that we belong together.

“Tell me the truth about Stella,” I slowly speak after a few minutes later. Our breaths are normal again. However, our bodies are still wet with sweat.

“I know you have questions.” He begins to talk as his arms wrap around my waist; his fingers reach out to caress my nipples, playing them. “The truth is… she accidentally found out the truth why your parents were murdered and who’s responsible for it.”

I suddenly move away from him. Both of us groan as our bodies separate from each other. I turn to look at him in the eye.

“What do you mean?” My brows are knitted.

“I sent her away to protect her. She’s the only witness, Ava,” he explains.

The lines between my brows grow deeper. “What? And what else aren’t you telling me, Liam?”

He sighs with downcast eyes. “Nobody else knows about this, Ava. I confronted Ace when I discovered that he’s the one who’s behind the death of your parents fifteen years ago. I was able to trace back some money he used to pay for the mercenary. I noticed it ever since I handled CPI. He explained that he wanted to impress our father… that he can materialize the Cargo Partners International by merging each of our family’s business, thus his plan to scare your parents, he said. But everything went wrong and they died instead.”

My lips part. “Please tell me that Noah knows nothing about this!” I demand with gritted teeth. My heart hurts, like a dagger is buried deep into it. I feel like I’m being toyed, used and fooled all this time.

Liam tries to reach out to me but I push his hand away. “I told you, Ava,” he reminds me gently. “Only I know about it. I discovered it last year. When I later on confronted Ace, I caught Stella accidentally eavesdropping. Ace has no idea though. At the time, she went to our home to give us some pie she made. You know her. She always goes there almost every weekend to also check on us and exchange gossips with our housekeeper.”

I swallow hard. The tears start to roll down like they are in a race.

“Ace said that the mercenary he hired reappeared last year and asked for some more money. He blackmailed my brother. That’s why Ace embezzled some company money. That’s when I noticed it and it’s the reason why I confronted him,” he pauses. His eyes almost plead mine. “I can’t let our family fall apart because of what he’s done to your parents, Ava. Ace has his own kids now. You love him as a brother and you love those kids, too. Don’t tell me you don’t because it’ll be a lie!”

It’s like my heart is being torn apart when I heard this. What about my parents?

My face is so wet with hot tears. “If Ace doesn’t know about what Stella heard, why did you still send her away? And why did you report her missing?”

“I gave Stella two choices, either she will go away and keep her mouth shut or she will stay with you and keep her mouth shut. I told her that it’s the only way she’d be safe. I know you’d be disappointed if you knew she just kept quiet. She told me she can’t do either of those choices. So, I think she’s the one who reported herself missing, pretending she’s another person who’s working for our family, and she gave Detective Sanchez the hint about the cold case. I guess it will be reopened soon. And that’s why the detective called my father yesterday.”

“But you’ll do everything to keep the family intact,” I bitterly state. My eyes are accusing.

“Ace did not order for your parents’ deaths, Ava. What happened to them was not entirely his fault, although he had a role in it. The mercenary fucked up. I’d do anything… I promise… to catch that bastard!”

I recall Ace’s kind and handsome face, as well as his adorable children, making me sob even more. But Liam is right. I can’t let those children be fatherless, especially that their mother is sickly. I don’t want them to go through what I’ve been through. It’s so tough without parents.

I weep, helpless about the situation. But I need to heal, after learning all this now.

Liam slowly pulls me closer and embraces me again in his arms that are like steel bands.

“I can’t promise that everything will be rosy after this, Ava but I promise that I’ll atone for my brother’s sin. I only ask that you don’t push me and my family away from your life.” His voice is low and entreating.

“But you hate me since I entered your life!” I counter, reminding him.

He softly chuckles. “That’s not true. I just always act like a jerk whenever you’re around to get your attention.”

I look at him in disbelief and bite my lower lip. I punch him in the shoulder. Hard.

“I’ll make your life miserable, Liam Collins. You watch me!” I get up from the bed to go to the bathroom, keeping my distance away from him. However, his sultry eyes make my heart do a somersault.

I hide a smile. Surely, I’m not his slave anymore but he’s mine.

The end
