Chapter Thirty-Four
THE HEATHEN
“Please, Killian. Do you want me to get on my knees and beg? I will.”
All three of them sit on the couch staring at me, eyes curious, wondering if I’ll actually beg like a fucking dog to go outside. I will.
“Killer,” he warns as I drop to my knees and crawl to him slowly. Knox and Carter are seated on either side of him, watching intently.
When I stop in front of him, I grab his knees, forcing his legs apart,and move closer to him until I’m between his thighs. He groans when I dig my nails into his skin.
“Goddamn it, Heather.”
I run my tongue over my bottom lip as I raise my eyes to his.
“Please. I promise I’ll behave.”
His cock hardens against my stomach as I move my hand closer.
“We go after your family tomorrow. Why can’t you wait?”
I sit back on my knees feeling deflated.
“Kill, it’s not going to be over tomorrow. Maybe we find the Prophet but probably not.”
He exchanges a quick glance with his brothers before returning his gaze to mine.
“Why is this so important to you?”
I shrug my shoulders like an errant child being scolded.
“It makes me happy. I don’t know how to explain it better than that.”
I don’t tell him being cooped up inside reminds me of my childhood. I’m sure he’d give in but I don’t want him to agree that way.
He nods, “Alright, baby, but there will be rules.”
Holding up a finger he narrows his gaze at me, letting me know this is not a negotiation.
“One, you will stay with us at all times. Two, one of us will be on either side of you at all times, the third will be behind you. I do not want to hear any complaints. And three, we all carry.”
I jump up off my knees and he grabs my arm pulling me onto his lap.
“You’re a spoiled fucking brat. You do know that, right?”
I glance at Knox and he nods.
“He’s not wrong, Tesoro.”
Placing my hand on Killian’s chest, I flash him a sweet smile.
“How does one become a spoiled fucking brat, sir? By being spoiled? I think maybe, that’s your fault, all three of you. I’m a good girl, really. I could have snuck out and tried to go by myself but I asked for permission. Instead of scolding me, maybe I should be rewarded.”
Knox rises to his feet and lifts me until I’m over his shoulder squealing like a stuck pig.
“What are you doing?”
Smacking my ass, he says, “Behave. I have something for you.”
When he walks into the bedroom, he sets me on my feet after sliding me down the front of his body.
He walks over to the dresser and slides it open and pulls out something that looks like a black leather belt. When he comes back. he stares at me, his eyes dark and commanding.
“Lift your skirt, Tesoro. The right side since you're right handed.”
Grabbing the material of my black skirt I lift it and he wraps the material around my thigh with a satisfied grin on his face.
“I do enjoy these thigh-highs on you, Tesoro. Some day soon I’m going to use them to tie you up. Since you like begging to get what you want you’ll beg to come. If you come without permission you’ll be punished.”
I can’t contain the gasp that escapes my lips.
“What if I can’t hold back?”
He runs his tongue over his bottom lip, his eyes darkening with pleasure as he considers his answer.
“You will learn, Tesoro. It requires control. It’s not something you will know in the beginning because you’ve been spoiled with many orgasms but I promise, you will get there. For me, you’ll be a good girl and seek permission before daring to come.”
“Knox,” I whimper, excitement traveling straight to my core.
I always believed I didn’t want to be tied up. I did it for Carter but now that he doesn’t need it anymore I miss it. It’s soothing to give over your control to someone else and know without any doubts, you're safe. And with my men, my safety is never in question.
He kisses me on the forehead.
“Yes, your safe word will still be honored and respected.”
He moves back to the dresser and pulls out a gun.
“This is for you but if I see any risky behavior I will take it away. Do you know how to fire a gun?”
I nod, unable to take my eyes from the weapon. He obviously searched for a purple one for me and it makes me feel special when it’s probably not that big of a deal.
“Yes, in my family we are taught young how to use a gun for hunting.”
Anger flashes through his eyes before he hides it away.
“We need to call them something else because they aren’t your family. We are your family. Understood?”
“Yes, sir,” I immediately respond.
“Such a good fucking girl, Tesoro.”
He places the gun in the holster strapped to my thigh.
“The safety is on. You shouldn’t need it but I’d rather you have it just in case. I got you the thigh holster so it’d be concealed. I need you to be safe at all times. My only regret is not giving you this sooner. If I had, you might have been able to protect yourself from him.”
Pressing my hand to his face I lift my gaze to his.
“Please stop torturing yourself. It wasn’t your fault. If you had tried to stop me from leaving with him, all four of us would be dead.”
He nods but the pain is evident on his face.
“Ready, Tesoro?”
Taking my hand in his, he pulls it to his lips and kisses my palm before walking me to meet up with Killian and Carter. He opens the door for me and I’m so happy when I step into the sunshine. This is what I need. Fresh air and my men. They are the cure for whatever ails me.
