Chapter 20 #3
It’s surreal, being kissed right now, while waiting for a security guard to find us. Exciting but scary. I’m hot and cold, trying to get my breathing under control. Adrenaline roars through me, and my pussy tingles.
Then Billy’s scent washes over me, and I lose myself in his soft lips. It’s just an act, but it doesn’t feel like it. His mouth is making filthy promises, and I can’t help relaxing into him.
I close my eyes, letting Billy kiss me while the footsteps get closer. The door beside us opens and a harsh voice snaps, “What are you doing in here?”
It’s a pair of execs, one looking confused, one glaring at us with suspicion.
Billy angles his body, so he’s in front of me, giving me shelter. “Is there a problem?” His voice drips with condescension.
“You’re not supposed to be back here,” the angrier one says. “I’ll ask you again, what are you doing here?”
“Isn’t it obvious?” Billy drawls. His body is relaxed, while I’m vibrating with nerves.
“I finally got this perfect woman to give me the time of day. I wanted to get her alone for some private conversation. But since we’re no longer alone, we’ll go.
” He sounds bored and annoyed, as if the execs are trespassing on his turf, instead of the other way around.
“How did you even get in here?”
Billy shrugs with every ounce of his arrogance.
“The door was unlocked. If you don’t want people in here, you should make sure it’s secure.
” While the exec is sputtering, he puts a hand at my back and guides me away.
They call after us, and I flinch, but we’re back in the mix of guests, and they don’t seem to want to follow and make a scene.
We keep a sedate pace, wandering almost aimlessly towards the door.
“Thank you,” I breathe once we step outside.
“Don’t thank me. We’re not out of the woods yet. But once we are,” he fixes me with a narrow-eyed look that makes my stomach swoop again. “You owe me an explanation.”
Billy
I don’t know what’s going on. I just caught Aubrey attempting some sort of corporate espionage.
And I helped her. I don’t know how I got involved in this mess, other than I saw the gala invite on Aubrey’s dresser and couldn’t bear the thought of her going with anyone else but me.
Now I’m on the phone with Sully, getting him to wipe all evidence from the security cameras to make sure neither of us are caught. I can hear his curiosity in his voice, but I don’t bother to explain. I’m not sure I can, even if I made a habit of explaining myself to my packmates.
I hang up with Sully. “It’s done,” I tell her.
She sighs and nods, sinking back in the limo seat. She’s a vision in the silver dress I chose for her. The thought of laying her down and feasting on her pussy right here in the back seat makes my mouth water. But I’m not ready for that distraction yet.
“You’re not off the hook yet. Talk.”
“It’s a long story–”
“I just helped you avoid a few felony charges. I think I’ve earned the right to hear why you were doing something so reckless.”
She blows out a breath, but she must realize I put my neck out for her.
I’m not too worried about the consequences, but my wolf is geared up, wanting to protect the little human from any threats.
“Sentience is stealing from artists,” she blurts.
“A whistleblower has proof that they uploaded artists’ work illegally. ”
“It’s an LLM. It was trained on tons of data.”
“It’s still wrong.” She blinks her big brown eyes at me. “This hurts people, Billy. Artists like me.”
“That’s for the law to decide.”
“The law is about a century behind the times. When laws are unjust, it’s our duty to resist.”
“It still was reckless. We could’ve been caught.” I’ll never forget the way my heart lurched at the sight of her in the server room. She’s lucky I scented the security guard and got us out of the server room in time.
“But we weren’t.” Aubrey smirks. “And now Jamie–the whistleblower–will be able to get the incriminating evidence we need.”
I run a hand down my face. While I admire Aubrey’s loyalty and commitment to justice, I wish she had a little more self preservation. This little human will be the death of me.
“Relax, Suit, it worked. And you were brilliant. The way you told off those Sentience guys. How did you know they were coming?”
“Heard them,” I lie. I caught their scents.
“I wouldn’t have thought to cover our tracks with a make out session.”
“Maybe I just wanted to kiss you.”
Light glints off her silver nose ring with the movement of her smile. “How did you follow me?”
I followed her scent trail, but I can’t tell her that. “Saw you sneak into the stairwell. So I stole a keycard and followed.” The last part is true.
“Huh, I thought I was stealthy enough.”
“You were good, Silver. But I’m better.”
She snorts at my bravado, as I knew she would. “So suave. You know, I thought you looked like James Bond when I first saw you tonight.”
I curl my lip. “Ugh.”
“What? I thought you’d take that as a compliment.”
“I don’t drink weak-ass martinis. Shaken, not stirred, ” I mock. “Please.”
“Whatever. We make a good team.”
“Yeah, Silver, we do.” We share a grin, and it does something peculiar to my chest. “But now you owe me.”
“Excuse me? You’re the one who decided you were going to tag along as my date.”
“You’re lucky I did. You couldn’t have pulled this off without me. What were you going to do if you were caught?” I put some force in my voice, trying to get her to see the seriousness of the situation.
She lifts one shoulder in a lazy shrug. “Play dumb.”
“Yeah,” I snort. The image of Aubrey trying to act clueless makes me want to laugh despite myself. “That never would have worked.”
“Excuse me?” She sits up, looking outraged. “I can pretend to be ditzy.”
“No one would ever believe it. You needed me, admit it.”
She shakes her head, muttering to herself.
I put my hand on her calf and slide it up to her knee. “You owe me.”
“Oh really?” She raises a brow, but I catch the quiver in her voice.
“Nothing comes free.” I slide my hand up further. Her skin is silky and warm, and when she parts her legs a little, her heady scent hits me and sends me reeling.
“Wrong, Billy Billions. The best things in life are free.” And with a foxy smile, she puts her hand on the front of my tuxedo pants. My cock throbs under her touch.
“Careful…” My breath hisses between my teeth as she rubs her palm along the ridge of my erection. She’s in dangerous territory. My wolf is on edge. He wants me to pin her down and ravage her. Wear her out and keep her in my bed, so she’ll never do anything so dangerous again.
She leans in, letting her braids trail over my upper torso while she bears down, rubbing me harder. It’s perfect until she says, “Maybe this is how I would’ve gotten out of a tight situation. Did you ever think of that?”
Instantly, my brain goes there, giving me an image of Aubrey playing seductress with a security guard. I bite back a snarl. “Anyone who touches you, loses that hand.”
Her eyes widen a moment. Her gaze searches mine, as if she’s wondering where that intensity came from. I don’t care how possessive that sounded. I mean every word.
After a moment of hesitation, she smirks. “Jealous?”
Before I think, I’ve moved, pulling her across my lap. She gasps, and I smack her perfect ass. “No one touches you. I mean it.”
Her dark chuckle tells me she’s into it. “And if I touch them?”
“I punish you.” But she’s punishing me, torturing me with thoughts of her with other men.
I rub her bottom over the dress, getting lost in the sensation of the firm muscle under my palm, her weight pressing on my dick. I slide my hand under her dress, seeking her softness, her heat. We both sigh when I find it, pulling the slender gusset of her G-string aside. She’s dripping wet.
“No one else. This” –I stroke her lightly– “belongs to me.”
She’s limp over my lap, too focused on the movement of my fingers to argue. And I’m suddenly desperate. I need her to be safe. I need her to be mine.
What the hell am I doing?
“Promise me, Aubrey. No more breaking into server rooms. Or anything reckless like that.”
“I make no promises.”
“Then you won’t come until you do.” I give her clit a tap and smile at the conundrum. Her own ideals against her desire to come.
Another tap.
She wiggles her hips over my lap, making my cock thrust out in my tuxedo pants.
“How about this? If I want to do any B&E, I’ll call you first.”
“Deal.” I penetrate her with my finger.
She gasps, looking over her shoulder at me with her berry-painted lips parted. She’s so gorgeous. I want to satisfy her. Make her scream my name. Make her mine.
Wait, no.
Not that part. I just don’t want her to ever be with anyone else.
Fate. I’m getting muddled.
I finger-fuck her slowly, and she bites her lower lip, holding my gaze. “I want to suck your cock.” Her voice sounds husky, like honey and gold dust.
My upper lip lifts in a snarl of approval. I remove my finger, and she slides down to kneel at my feet. I help her by freeing my erection.
She grips the base of my cock and slides her tongue around the head.
I draw harsh breaths in through my nostrils. She’s making me lose control, and I hate to lose control.
She drags her tongue up the underside of my cock, then engulfs it with her mouth.
She’s trouble, this human. I give her full points for courage back there, but fuck, she’s reckless! Careless with her safety and her future.
I live a controlled, curated existence. That’s how I ensure superiority over every other male in the pack but my alpha. That’s how I manage pack and business politics.
Aubrey is clearly disrupting the order in my life. The fact that I came tonight when there’s no possible financial or strategic gain for me or my pack proves it. What could I possibly hope to gain by mixing with this human? She is trouble for me and my kind.
But then she cups my balls and picks up the pace, bobbing her head over my cock.
Pleasure rolls over me in a tidal wave.
It shouldn’t feel this good. Being with her shouldn’t feel like this.
Fuck. I’m losing control again. Anger at that fact mingles with pleasure.
Her eyes are on me. Her lips stretch around my cock. I just spanked her luscious ass, and I plan to fuck her senseless when I get her home tonight.
It’s too much.
I put my hand around her throat. It’s a threat to her very existence. Proof to myself that I still have the upper hand. I’m still in charge, no matter how out of control I feel.
Her eyes widen, but she keeps sucking me off like a good fucking girl.
And that’s what does me in. The fact that she’s kneeling at my feet, working to please me–it is too much.
I let out a snarl as my climax rockets down my shaft. “Coming,” I manage to grunt, tightening my grip on her throat. “Show me how you swallow.”
Because she’s Aubrey and disobedient as fuck, she pulls off and takes my cum between her tits.
My laugh is sudden and harsh.
This female is ruining my life.
