turning me into a raging bull ready to destroy anything in its path.
Narrowing my eyes, I grip the table, reining in my fury with everything I have. Lashing out would mean I’m letting him get to me, and that’s what he wants.
“Enough about me. Let’s get something straight. You will listen to me, Eli. In fact, fuck your plan. You have twenty-four hours to retrieve the girl, or you’re dead. A bullet will be put in your head, and I will hunt and kill every single one of them.”
A somber look crosses his face, and I know I have him under my thumb again. “Don’t attempt to run either—I will know, and nothing thrills me more than the hunt for blood. Twenty-four hours. That’s it.” I stand from the table to get my phone. I have some calls to make. This little shack, no matter how fortified, won’t do justice for the carnage I’m about to cause.

Amara
My body aches deliciously as I roll over in the bed. The spot next to me is still warm, which means he just got up. A smile pulls at my lips, and I get up to tiptoe to the bathroom. I can hear the water and see the steam filling the room before I even enter. My heart is beating out of my chest as I slip through the door and close it quietly behind me.
I’m completely naked, and the thought of being with Enzo again so soon makes my mouth water. The danger we’re in only intensifies my feelings for him. Every extra breath and every day of life I’m given is meant to be with him.
I see him through the glass of the shower. His head downcast as the water sprays onto the back of his neck. He looks utterly defeated, and for a slight second, I contemplate giving him some space. His eyes shoot up, and even through the blurry stained glass, I can see the darkness looming over him.
“What are you doing up?” he asks gruffly, opening the shower door slowly. His eyes eat up my body, stopping on my chest before they land on my eyes. His own are heavily hooded with desire, and I know all it will take is one stroke of his cock to break whatever steely resolve he’s under.
Smiling, I close the space between us and slip into the shower with him.
“I woke up, and you were gone. I want you,” I purr into his ear as I lean into his body. He looks worn and tired, and I know what we’re going through has been getting to him. He’s used to everything going as planned and protecting only himself.
He smirks at me, stepping back to allow me under the spray. Goosebumps spread across my skin as I come into contact with the hot water.
I stare at him for a long moment before stepping up onto my tiptoes to land a kiss on his lips. His hands roam over my body as if he is memorizing every inch of me.
“I love you…” he whispers, or at least, I think he did. His words are so quiet, I can’t be sure.
“I love you, too.” I push myself into him. “I didn’t mean what I said last night. I was just angry…”
“It sounded like you meant it.”
I want to tell him how sorry I am, but words don’t seem enough. So I do the next best thing. I kiss him. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I pull him close to me. With our naked bodies molding together like clay, and our tongues dancing, I show him what I can’t put in words.
Suddenly, he pulls away and bends. Before I know what’s happening, he lifts one of my legs and throws it over his shoulder. I lean back against the wall for support as Enzo buries his face in my pussy without warning. His tongue, lips, and teeth assault me in the most passionate way, making me shudder all over.
“Yes… Yes…” I cry out, his tongue gliding through my folds. My hands find his hair, tugging hard as he nips at my clit. The pleasure coursing through me is borderline painful, and as I come on his face, I feel as if he’s trying just that. Bringing me to that edge of pain to draw out the pleasure. No one knows my body like Enzo does. It’s like I’m his instrument, handcrafted for him, and he is the only one able to play.
“This sweet cunt wants my
