22. Rory
RORY
A few of Daddy’s men are cheering me on, and Daddy is standing off to the side, watching as Mal tries to teach me how to defend myself from much larger douchebags.
“I know you’re small, but you’re fast. Use that speed to your advantage. Rather than coming at someone head-on, use your surroundings to keep your distance. There’s no shame in hiding.”
“Or punching people in the dick,” Tag adds.
“Or punching people in the dick,” Mal agrees. “Okay, so you’ve got nowhere to hide in here. What are you going to do?”
“Help! Someone please help me!” I scream at the top of my lungs, and everyone claps for me.
“Perfect,” Mal says. “Now, if no one comes to help, what would you do? Tag, get up here.”
Tag stretches dramatically and climbs into the ring. “Show me what you got, rabbit.”
He’s pretty scary when he’s up close. Which is a good thing when he’s protecting me, but not now. I’d never be able to fight him.
So I take off running, which surprises Tag, and he lumbers after me, but he gets stuck in the ropes before running after me. That gives me the second I need to hide, so I double back and slide under the ring.
“Shit,” Tag grumbles as he runs back into the room.
“I’m starting to doubt my decision to hire you.” Daddy laughs, and a minute later, the flap of the ring flies up.
“Gotcha.” Tag reaches for me, and I bite his hand before rolling away.
“Nice work, Rory.” Mal high-fives me when I climb back out.
“Fucker bit me.” Tag shakes out his hand. “But I’m so proud of you,” he finishes excitedly.
“You didn’t teach me how to bite.”
“Nope, but if you need to fight dirty, you do it.” He high-fives me too.
“I feel bad fighting dirty,” I admit.
“Anyone who’s trying to hurt you deserves it, and who made up the rules of fighting fair, anyway? A good dick punch is the best way to win a fight.” Tag executes a dick punch to emphasize his point.
“Moving on. If you find a safe place, stay there until help comes or the danger has passed. But you can’t hide from him anymore. So what can you use as a weapon?”
I pick up a weight, or try to, and then grab a smaller weight.
“Good, but just remember you’d kill somebody with a weapon like that,” Mal warns.
I put the weight back and grab a chair, holding the legs out toward Tag. “I don’t want to kill anybody.”
“Rory, if it’s you or them to die, it’s always them,” Daddy chimes in.
“He’s right. Sometimes in this business, it’s better to shoot first and ask questions later,” Mal agrees.
“After you kill a few, it’s not so bad. You get used to it.” Tag flicks a hand, and most of the men around me nod in agreement.
“I’m going to pretend that you’re joking.” Even though I’m sure he’s not.
“Whatever helps you sleep at night.” Tag shrugs.
“I think that’s enough training for today.” Daddy comes over and picks me up. I settle against his chest and enjoy the ride inside. “Did any of that help you?”
“Yeah. When Chad first grabbed me, I was caught off guard. I did manage to headbutt him and run, but otherwise, I was helpless. I’m happy to learn anything to help me defend myself.”
“Well, you stay close to me and you won’t need to. I’m the toughest man here.”
“I believe that, and I promise to stay close to you, but I’d still like to learn.”
“You can keep at it as much as you’d like. I’m all for you protecting yourself. Mal’s a bit of a hard ass, though.”
“I like hard asses.”
“You know, I warned you about the bad language earlier today.” I’m about to argue that he said it first when his voice dips low and rumbly. “I think you need a spanking to help you learn your lesson.”
I know how to play sexy too.
“I’m sorry, Daddy. I was naughty.”
His breath hitches, and I smile. “I missed this too.”
“Me carrying you like a princess?”
“No, the flirting and whispering sexy things to each other.”
“You better not be flirting with anyone else.”
“Just you, Daddy.” My hand lands over his heart.
“Good answer.” We’re quiet for a minute before Daddy scolds me. “Rabbit. Stop touching my chest like that.”
“But I love your chest so much. It’s big and strong and makes my milk.”
“Not here, rabbit,” he whispers, and I look around, worried I might have just given away his worst secret. “You can show me how much you love it in our room.” He waggles his eyebrows, and I know he’s not upset.
“Did you just call it our room?”
“I did. You won’t be sleeping anywhere else.”
“Maybe I should go back to the house until we can ease Brendan into this.” I don’t think he’ll like how quickly things are progressing between me and Lex.
“Do you want to sleep without me?” he asks and looks kinda sad.
“No, I’ve enjoyed sleeping with you, but this is all happening so fast.”
“Rory, I’m sorry if I’ve overwhelmed you, but my feelings came on hard and fast, and I want you to be mine, but also safe and happy.”
“Will you let me go back to school?”
“Of course. That’s your dream.” He nods.
“What if I don’t want to be a nurse anymore?” I’ve been thinking about it since I spent so much time in the hospital and realized hospitals suck. But it’s what I’ve always wanted, and I’m so close to graduation…
“It’s okay for plans or dreams to change.
” He sets me down in his—our—room. When he looks down at me with those piercing eyes, I feel so seen.
Not just as Rory the victim or Rory the nurse, but as Rory the person who’s still hurting.
I hide it from Brendan because I don’t want to be a burden to him, and I hide it from my therapist because I don’t want more drugs from her.
“So you’d be okay if I said I didn’t want to finish school?”
“I would encourage you to finish it since you’re so close. Then you have your degree if you ever want it. But no, if you don’t want to finish school, I won’t let anyone force you.”
“I’m not ready yet, and I might never be ready again, but if I go, can I take Tag with me?”
He grins. “Try leaving without him.”
“Am I a prisoner?” I challenge, and Lex steps into my space.
“I prefer to say under my protection.” His strong arms pull me tight, and I sigh against him.
“That does sound better.”
“Rory, if you ever want to leave, you can. I just ask that you keep yourself safe.”
“I don’t want to leave. I finally feel safe, here in your arms.” And locked in his giant compound.
“I’ll never let anything happen to you.” He kisses me deeply, and I fall into his embrace.
His bulge grows hard between us, and I decide to ask for what I want.
So I rip my mouth away from his, and he trails kisses down my jaw to my neck.
My fingers tangle in his hair, and he moans softly against my pulse point.
“I want…” He sucks hard. “Oh god, that’s good.” My brain scrambles as I try to remember what I want. “I want to—”
“Tell me, rabbit.” He cups my jaw and looks into my eyes. “Anything you want.”
“I want to suck your dick!” I blurt the words and flush. “If that’s okay?”
“More than okay with me, but is that what you want?”
“I want it so bad.” To show him, I drop to my knees and rub my face against his bulge. My eyes practically roll into the back of my head.
“Fuck, baby. That feels amazing.”
I drag my teeth up his shaft and nibble the head while my hands reach up and undo his belt, letting it hang open before I unbutton and unzip him.
My nose sneaks into the now open space, and I inhale deeply.
God, I miss this too. The masculine smell and the silky weight of a cock in my mouth.
Thankfully, the ordeal didn’t ruin this for me.
“God, that’s so sexy.” His pants drop to the floor and strong fingers come to rest on my head.
My nose trails up and down his soft briefs before he pulls me up and takes me over to the bed.
“But I want to suck your dick.” I pout.
“And you will, but the floor is too hard for your knees.” He sets me down. “The rug is much more comfortable.”
That’s so sweet. I’m trying to suck his dick and he wants to make sure I’m comfortable.
“Can I see all of you, Daddy?”
“Greedy rabbit,” he purrs and tugs off his tie before quickly removing his shirt and briefs.
“You’re so sexy.” I step close and run my hands up his chest before I kiss his scruffy chin and kneel down slowly, dragging my nails roughly along his stomach and thighs. He twists and shivers like he can’t stand still. His hands clench at his sides when I’m finally face to face with his dick.
And what a gorgeous dick it is.
Thick and veiny with a large crown. A drop of pre-cum rests on his tip, and I brush my mouth lightly against it, just enough to get it all over my lips and make them shine.
“Oh my fucking god, you’re so hot.” His eyes widen as he watches me. “You have the best cock-sucking mouth I’ve ever seen.” My tongue swipes across my lips and his breathing becomes sharper. “You’re going to kill me, rabbit.” He groans and then moans when I swallow the first few inches of his cock.
I did that. I made him this hard.
My lips wrap around him on the way back up, and the smooth skin moves with me.
A foreskin?
Mmm, I always wanted to play with one of those.
None of the men my age have one, and it’s sexy as hell.
I tighten my suction and pull it up with my mouth.
Lex hisses, and I pull back to really look.
The skin has moved down to cover his whole head, and I use my hand to pull it back gently before moving it back up.
The glide is so smooth as it slips over his head and down again.
“You like that, baby boy?”
“I do.” I pull the skin down and jack him with it while tonguing his slit. He tastes so damn good, I could suck on him all day.
“That feels good.”
“Am I doing okay?” I blink up at him with faux innocence. “I’ve never sucked a dick with foreskin before.”
“So good.” His head flops back onto his shoulders.
“Is there anything I can do to make it feel better?”
“Yeah. Pull the skin all the way up.” I do it and look up at him.
“Now stick your tongue in there.” I do, and it’s smooth and musky as I roll my tongue around his thick head.
“That’s good, rabbit. Really get it in there.
” Feeling braver, I push my tongue farther inside and kiss his tip with my lips.
“Jesus.” He groans. “You’re a fucking natural, baby boy. ”
“Thank you, Daddy,” I purr and get to work.
