Thirty-Three
SCARLETT
“ G et your fucking hands off her!” a deep voice yells as a dark shadow steps inside the room. Ace appears, angrier than I’ve ever seen him, his expression blurred but I can sense he’s filled with rage as his hands sit fisted tightly at his sides.
“Ace,” I say as I fall back onto the couch.
“What the fuck did you do to her, McAllen?” he shouts, rushing toward us.
“Just a little Devil’s Kiss to get her in the mood,” Macallan answers, mockingly chuckling at Ace's anger.
“You’re done, Macallan, I swear if you set foot in here again.”
“Oh, quit it, Ace, you know you have no control over that. He was right. This was a test, and you failed. This girl is going to be a problem for you. Besides, you can have your little girlfriend back, I’m done with her. I got what I paid for.”
“You son of a bitch,” Ace yells, launching at him, but he’s instantly pulled back by two guards .
“You watch yourself, kid, you have no power around here, not yet anyway. You still have a lot to learn. Keep this girl on a shorter leash or we’ll have to do it for you. It would be quite fun taming her. See you two in class on Monday,” he says as he walks out the door.
My head is spinning as I fall back on the couch beside me. A fire coursing within me, flowing in my veins and heating everything within me.
“Eternally the menacing little angel aren’t you, Red?” Ace says as he approaches me.
“Ace,” I moan as he reaches down and sits beside me, placing a calloused hand on my thigh and it’s exhilarating.
He chuckles lightly but I hear it. “Move it higher, Ace. It feels so good.”
He obeys my command and slowly slides his hand up my thigh. I turn my body toward him, throwing my legs over his and straddling him but he stiffens beneath me as I wrap my arms around his neck. I grind into him and feel him hardening beneath me, so I increase my pace.
“Ace, fuck, touch me. I need you to touch me,” I moan louder feeling him growing beneath me. Though instead of being terrified as I was moments ago, this is exhilarating. I start to grind and rub against him as he moans into my mouth.
“Fuck, Red, I shouldn’t take advantage of you like this but fuck if you make it hard.”
“Please, Ace, I need…”
“I know what you need,” he grabs me and flips me, my back now flat against the couch, his body hovering over me as he lowers his lips to mine and whispers softly against them.
“This is just about you, baby, you need release.” He slips his hand down my stomach to my waist until he finds my hot wet center underneath my bodysuit. “Red,” he grunts, as he slips the fabric to the side and his fingers slide across my slick wetness. “You feel so good, so hot, and wet. So greedy and ready. ”
“Ace, please.”
“Slowly, my angel, all in good time. I’m nowhere near done with you.”
He slides his finger back and forth along my folds and then pushes one into me making me loach, my back curving off the couch. “Ahh.”
“Such a sweet sound, baby.” He continues to move in and out of me, inserting another finger as he moves the top of my suit to the side and teases my nipple with the other. My sex is gripping around his fingers as my hips sway to meet his hand. He knows I’m close and quickens his pace.
“Ace, I…”
“Let go baby, let go for me.”
“Ahh,” I moan as I reach my climax and explode around his fingers.
“So beautiful, baby. Fuck you look so good coming on my fingers, Scarlett,” he says, coming back up and kissing me, taking me in for another mind-numbing attack. I can’t believe I orgasmed so quickly with just the touch of his fingers inside me. Tears stream down my face uncontrollably as a wave of emotions floods me without warning. “Now, now, beautiful, I’m here. You’re safe.”
I can’t help but chuckle lightly at his assurance. “Safe,” I mutter against his lips, tasting my tears on my lips. “There’s no such thing. Saved from one devil only to be claimed by another.” His body stiffens beside me and I think I’ve struck a nerve.
“Not tonight, Red. Tonight I’m the good guy, your guardian angel.”
“No such thing, Ace,” I mutter breathlessly before my eyes betray me and close shut. My body feels like gelatin as I sense Ace picking me up. He mumbles something to whoever is beside us as he carries me out of the room. I muster what little strength I have left and wrap my arms around his neck, while he keeps his hands under my ass and on my back as we step through the hallway they brought me in through .
“Hey man, where are you taking her? She’s not done for tonight,” Luke says as we pass him. I open my eyes and see he’s standing with two men dressed all in black. They look like bodyguards but I’m guessing they’re the club’s security.
“Move out of my way, Prescott,” Ace snarls, tightening his grip on me.
“I can’t do that, Servite. Nothing personal, but she doesn’t belong to you.”
Ask growls into my ear causing shivers to erupt all over my skin at the animalistic sound. “Fuck that, of course she belongs to me, and I swear you better get the fuck out of my way or you’ll regret it.”
“The boss won’t be pleased. She was with one of his most valued clients,” Luke argues back.
“Mind your words, Prescott, you forget who you’re talking to. And you tell your boss that his valued client just drugged up my girl. A girl who doesn’t fucking work here, so you bet your ass that someone better tell me why the fuck she was in a cage tonight.”
Luke cowers and stands down, realizing he’s no match for Ace Servite. “My apologies, sir, I will question Lacey and Cruz immediately.”
“Now get the fuck out of my way and give my keys to Ivan. Tell him to bring my car around to the northeast exit, we’re not going through the front.” Ace pushes past me and continues through a back corridor which I assume leads to the exit he mentioned to Luke.
“Ace, what’s wrong with me?” I murmur into the crook of his neck.
“Nothing, baby, you’re going to be okay. I’ve got you now.”
“Gahh,” I groan, my head falling back as a piercing ache hits my temples.
“Shh, I’m here now, baby. Fuck Scarlett, why did you come here tonight?” he says, his voice deep and raspy, making the hairs on my neck stand up in awareness of how fucking aroused I still am .
“I wanted to know why you were being such an asshole and so secretive.”
Ace lets out a deep sigh, full of so many emotions I can practically feel everything he wishes he could tell me. “Now you know my dirty little secret.”
The shrill pain in my head worsens to where I’m screaming. “Ace, my head, it’s pounding!”
“Just close your eyes, baby. Soon everything will be okay.” And for once I don’t fight back against his command, my mind and body succumbing as I lose all consciousness.
