Masterson Unleashed

by Lisa Lang Blakeney

  "Morning, glory. You hungry?" he asks me.

  "Yes," I admit quietly.

  "You may want to change first,” Jade says to me.

  "Right,” I say on my way back to the bedroom totally embarrassed.

  Gratefully Roman has access to his master bathroom from inside his room, so I don't have to do yet another walk of shame in order to take a quick shower. I know that I probably smell like vodka, gin, and hell. But before I go in, I decide that it wouldn't hurt to eavesdrop a little on what they're saying. I know it's about me.

  "What the fuck Rome? Are you banging your cousin?" Cutter asks.

  "That's none of your business,” Roman replies.

  "Well you invited us here for a meeting knowing good and well that she was here wrapped up in one of your sheets. So I think you've now made it our business,” Jade says.

  "Let me first apologize and say that I'm sorry if I misled any one of you into believing that my personal fucking life was up for discussion. It's not."

  I think I hear the other brother Camden laugh out loud and speak next.

  "So you want us to pretend that we didn't just see what the fuck we just saw?" he asks.

  "That's right. Same way I pretend not to notice you staring at Jade's ass every time she walks by. Same way I pretend not to notice that Cutter has been Googling Elizabeth's glamazon friend like some pervert. Same way I pretend that Jade–"

  "All right that's enough!" Jade cuts him off abruptly.

  Then there's some additional laughter followed by silence.

  I take that as my cue to go take a well needed shower and leave the friends to their standoff. I just pray that they are all gone by the time I finish. My stomach is grumbling, and I want that damn turkey burger.

  After thirty minutes of lathering and scrubbing myself to death, I throw on the pair of black leggings and plaid blouse that I packed in my overnight bag, and sit on the edge of Roman's bed and brush my hair. Again and again and again.

  I'm killing time.

  I don't want to go back out there, because I'm not sure that they're gone, and I'm not ready to face them. There's a brief knock on the bedroom door and then Roman walks in with a plate of food.

  "Your turkey burger is probably cold as ice. Do you still want it?"

  "Are your friends still here?"

  "Is that why you're hiding out in here?"

  "Yes, Roman! Why would you tell them to come over for a meeting when I'm naked in your bed? I can't believe you."

  "My business stops for no one, not even your pretty little ass." He kisses me hard on the lips.

  "Roman,” I mouth.

  "All right let's talk real shit, Elizabeth."

  "Okay."

  "First take your food." He hands me the plate. "Eat it."

  I take a bite of my burger and miraculously it's not freezing cold. It's still warm and at this point tastes like a lobster dinner.

  "Good?" he asks.

  "Yes,” I moan.

  "Good. Now for some real talk."

  "All right."

  "Do you enjoy my company, Elizabeth?"

  "Yes."

  "Do you enjoy the way I fuck you?"

  "Oh my God, Roman … your mouth."

  "Do you?"

  "Yes okay?"

  "Do you want more of the two? Spending time with me and fucking me?"

  I'm taken aback at how very crass this real talk is.

  "I'm pretty sure I do."

  "Pretty sure? I want a hell yes or a hell no."

  "Roman–"

  "Not going to ask twice, Elizabeth."

  "Hell yes." I mutter with more burger shoved in my mouth.

  "Good we're on the same page then. I want the same. Which means that there are going to be times that my friends and business partners will be here and that you may also be here at the same time. You have to accept it and deal with it. They're not going anywhere and neither are you."

  "Have they accepted it? I heard them talking about me out there. They didn't really sound like the were on board."

  "They were just surprised."

  "Jade too?"

  "Jade is Jade. She just wants what's best for me, but she'll come around, and when she does she'll see that being with you is what's best for me."

  "Does she have a thing for you?" I ask a little concerned that I've blindly wandered my way inside a love triangle.

  "No," he chuckles. "I'm pretty sure she has a thing for Camden. Not me, Duchess."

  "Oh?"

  "And what about your people?"

  "What people?"

  "Glamazon. Tiny. Jagger?"

  "I talked to Jagger if that's what you mean. He knows that all we can be is just friends."

  "Did you tell him it was because of me?"

  "You know I wouldn't say anything about us. I haven't told anyone. The only one who thinks she knows everything is Sloan, and that's because I find it very difficult to hide anything from her. She knows me too well."

  "Yeah that and the fact that she gets you drunk to get the rest of the info."

  "Whatever,” I roll my eyes.

  "You know you didn't need to get drunk last night."

  "Why not? I was sad. I wanted to wallow in it for a little while. That's what girls do."

  "You didn't need to get drunk, because I'm going to give you the money. I'm your Plan B, and I don't want to hear shit else about it. When I saw you drunk and slumped on the ground like that last night, Duchess, I didn't like it. I don't want to ever see that shit again."

  "Awww you were worried about me."

  "Be quiet and give me your account number."

  "I said I won't take your money."

  "Calm your tits. I'm paying you for the work you did on the computer network. We'll talk about the other money later. In fact, you can give me the account info later."

  "Why?"

  "Because you've got a punishment coming, baby."

  I smile and put the rest of my burger down.

  "Yes, sir,” I say as I give him a mock hand salute.

  "Shut up and strip."

  Elizabeth

  Elizabeth's butter soft thighs are straddled across my face, my hands palming her plump ass, and my mouth front and center on her pussy. When I tilt my face up, I notice the filtered sunlight pouring in my bedroom and hitting the side of her in a way that is making the thin layer of sweat on her entire body shimmer.

  She's so fucking pretty up there, I start imagining crazy shit like her riding my face just like this but wearing nothing else but a long, lace wedding veil and a fucking smile.

  What. The. Fuck.

  Just when my tongue starts giving her clit a few rapid flicks and she starts hitting her stride, someone's cell phone starts ringing.

  Nonstop.

  Whoever the hell it is that's calling one of us, keeps calling back, and it's distracting the fuck out of me. But Elizabeth either doesn't hear it or chooses not to hear it because her hips are still moving at a steady back and forth pace and her almond eyes are still blissfully locked on mine like the obedient sexy ass she is.

  As if a fog has been lifted from my brain, it hits me that the ringer tone on the phone doesn't belong to me. It's an old phone tone that some use on their iPhones, but I never select that ring; and I didn't think Elizabeth did either. But maybe she's changed ringtones recently.

  When Elizabeth comes for me it's always thunderous and exquisite to watch. I love to see the torturous look of ecstasy spread across her face and the sated feeling that washes over me right afterwards.

  But that fucking phone.

  It's still ringing. And since she just got off this time she notices. Without as much as a glance towards me she climbs down off of my face and goes for her phone.

  "Hey,” she says casually to whoever is on the other end.

  Then she walks her little naked ass right into my bathroom, shuts the door, and proceeds to have a full blown conversation with the last person on earth that she should be spe
aking to.

  That motherfucker.

  "Okay, Ethan. Just let me get dressed and I'll meet you there in like a half hour."

  If I hadn't just finished giving Elizabeth one of the best orgasms of her life, I'd seriously believe that there were cameras on me right now? This just has to be one of the craziest fucking pranks ever, because I know that she did not just hop off my damn face and take a call from that little shit. She can't be that damn stupid.

  "Elizabeth!" I bellow as I proceed to kick down my fucking bathroom door.

  SPLASH.

  "Roman, wake up. Wake the frack up!"

  "Fuck." I slide my palm down my face. It's wet. In fact my whole face and pillow are wet. "What the fuck, Duchess?"

  "You were having a nightmare. You were yelling my name like you wanted to kill me."

  "Shit."

  "What were you dreaming about?"

  I scrub my hand across my face to help myself wake up. I drank a few too many lowballs yesterday and fucked my girl senseless for half the night. No wonder I'm out of it. I just don't know why I'm letting that fucker creep inside my head and into my sleep? Why the fuck am I letting this punk intimidate my subsconscious? I should kick my own ass.

  "Well?" She asks.

  "Nothing but fucking you, baby."

  "Really? Because I think you were trying to kill me when we were making love in that dream of yours. Should I be concerned, Neanderthal?"

  "Is that what we do, Duchess? Make love." I ask holding back a chuckle and making her blush in embarrassment.

  "Shut up, Masterson. You know what I mean."

  "I wasn't literally killing you." I try to assure her with a lie. "I was killing the pussy."

  "Humph." She crosses her arms and pouts. "You're lying."

  "Come here."

  "No, I'm tired and dirty … and you're a liar and wet."

  I slip my hand between her legs.

  "No, baby, you're the one who's wet. Now come here."

  I think for a second about pulling Elizabeth on top of me and having her ride me for a while, but I realize that it will look entirely too much like the nightmare I just woke up from. So I decide to change up the scene, and pull her by the waist and up on all fours. Deciding that this will be a better way to fuck that jerk out of my system and hers.

  Plus, she loves it like this.

  "Masterson,” she moans in that hypnotic voice of hers.

  "Arch your back and turn your head so I can see you. Then I'll give you what you want."

  Elizabeth does as she's told and as I slide hard and deep inside her from behind, I take a moment to relish in the feeling of complete rapture.

  Total bliss.

  In this moment, I'm not worried about shit except if I'm going to be able to hold off blowing my load before she does. When I'm inside her, I can almost forget about everything. And when I fix this little Ethan problem of mine, I will be able to always forget.

  "Masterson!" She yelps after an especially deep stroke that hits her just where she likes.

  "Don't you fucking come, Duchess." I order.

  Although I have a lot of fucking nerve. I'm very damn close to coming myself, like I'm some sort of horny sixteen-year-old boy who's going for broke.

  She lets out a few whimpers and slaps one of her palms on the headboard, that let's me know that she's concentrating really hard to follow the only rule I require in the bedroom. Of course it's the most difficult one for her to follow. Not to come unless I say so.

  Actually I could probably stretch this whole scene out a bit longer on my end and have her break my rule, which is a whole other level of fun in and of itself. My orgasm punishments are my specialty. I've done them with plenty of women before I met Elizabeth, but there's something about carrying them out with her that's special.

  I get in a zone when I'm in the middle of that shit with Elizabeth, and it becomes damn near a spiritual experience. She starts speaking in tongues, and I start thanking whatever higher being is up there for giving me her. For giving me this.

  Oh shit.

  Am I in love with her?

  Ethan

  "Have a seat, Mr. Anderson."

  Images of the movie The Matrix come to mind when the man in the cheap taupe suit says my name. He looks like one of the many special agents that I've met with over the last few months in the federal task force assembled to bring down the main syndicate running drugs in and out of Philadelphia. The Eighth Street Mafia. An organization that was born in the neighborhoods, grew in the jails, and has its reach spread wider than I ever imagined. The same crew I was selling drugs to college students for.

  Unfortunately I'm not really interested in sitting with agent new guy for an hour in this sterile, cold room complete with metal table and hard chairs. Mainly because every agent I've met has had a hand in fucking up this case in a major way.

  Vin was never ever supposed to be able to get close enough to me to do what he did. Following me to Elizabeth's apartment. Hurting her. Once he broke into Elizabeth's apartment I tried quickly texting Agent Suarez, the guy specifically assigned as my handler, but I didn't have enough time to give him any sort of concrete information. Just a quick text.

  That's why I made sure to slide the phone under Elizabeth's bed before they got to us. If Vin had checked the phone he would have seen that Suarez had been calling me all night trying to check in with me, and that my only reply was a 911 text hours later.

  If Vin had seen that, I would be dead, and so would Elizabeth.

  "Who are you?" I ask more annoyed than anything else.

  I don't trust these dicks anymore, but I have to play nice. Especially because my father pulled every string he had to keep me out of prison. After Vin took me from the house, I took him to a location that had already been designated by the task force as my supposed stash house. They rigged it with cameras and audio equipment weeks before, anticipating that Vin would eventually come after me; so it didn't take long for them to rush in and arrest him. Unfortunately there are a lot of fuckers who work for Vin and the task force had to put me under protection for a while after his arrest. Just until things cooled down.

  I was never in Arizona. I had always been in the Bahamas under a sweet protection arrangement my dad finagled for me. It was pure coincidence that I saw Elizabeth there. Or maybe fate.

  "I'm your new handler, Special Agent Keen."

  I doubt there's anything special about you.

  "Where's Suarez?"

  "He's been assigned to another case."

  "Sick of me was he?"

  Agent Keen chuckles at my Yoda like comment with very little genuine humor in his eyes. It's refreshing to see that he doesn't want to be here as much as I don't want to. Maybe I've turned into the case that agents get when they're being punished. Awesome.

  "Vin is locked up. What else do you need me for?" I ask.

  "Drug dealers have relationships with lots of people to get where they are in the food chain of their organization. There are still plenty of people in this city who know who you are and are probably curious as to why you went missing right after Vin was arrested. And of course why you're back."

  "So you're saying I'm in danger here?"

  "Basically that's what I'm saying."

  "Why can't I put it out there that I was locked up for a while. Wouldn't that explain me being missing?"

  Agent Keen scoffs. "Because they can easily check that out and discover that you weren't. They have plenty of friends in every local jail within a hundred mile radius. Maybe even two hundred miles."

  He leans in closer to my face now with definite purpose.

  "Listen, Mr. Anderson, I don't think it was smart of you to come back to Philadelphia, and it's definitely not a good idea for you to start any romantic connections with anyone."

  "What are you trying to say?"

  "I'm saying that you're here now, and I'm sure Vin's people already know that you're here. So there's no changing that. But what you can do
is leave Elizabeth Hill alone. She already got hurt once because of you. Next time it could be worse."

  "She's my girl. If I just leave her completely alone, that will look crazy suspicious too."

  Plus I don't want to give that trader Jagger or that asshole cousin of hers the satisfaction.

  "People break up all the time, Mr. Anderson. There's nothing suspicious about that. So let me be clearer. You are to have zero contact with Elizabeth Hill and all of her known friends and associates, or we will revisit all drug possession and intent to sell charges against you."

  What the hell!

  "Why do you care about Elizabeth? This makes no fucking sense."

  "Your relationship with that girl almost compromised a case that we've been building for over thirteen months. All you need to do right now is keep your head low, swim for your country, and let us know if anyone else from Vin's old crew approaches you. That's it. That's your job. That will keep you out of jail Mr. Anderson and hopefully keep you alive."

  I suck my teeth.

  This is not what I want to hear on a Tuesday morning, but I guess I'm going to have to swallow my pride and deal with it. I moved back home to get my life back on track, and to be perfectly honest, all I really need to do is find a new piece of tail to get over the old. Preferably one already broken in.

  Elizabeth was a cool girl, almost the perfect girl, but she was also a lot of fucking work.

  She still is.

  "I'll think about it."

  "Wise decision, Mr. Anderson."

  Roman

  "Why are we meeting in this shit-hole diner?" Camden asks. "How'd you even find this dump?"

  "Shut up, they've got great turkey burgers."

  "Turkey burgers? Who the fuck eats those?"

  "Quiet asshole. Did you handle shit with Agent Keen?"

  "Done."

  "I owe you one, Cam."

  "There's never any outstanding debts between us, Rome. You know that."

  I knew the only way to get Ethan out of my head was to make sure that I eliminated him from Elizabeth's life once and for all. If I had it my way, he'd be resting quietly in a nursing home for the rest of his life with a tube down his throat. But that's the old me. The new me? Had to ask Camden to find out what that little prick was hiding, so that we could make him go away in a white collar crime kind of way.
