Primal Desire

After she regained her composure, she looked up to see the smile on his face. He pulled out of her, letting go of her legs.
“Bend over,” he said in a commanding tone. That only served to turn her on more. Doing as he said, she got off the table. He turned her around, bending her over the table. Grabbing her hair, he pushed her down against the table before thrusting back inside her. She could feel another orgasm building.
She had always wanted someone to take control the way he was. Brenley loved dirty talk and being ordered around. She was in control of the rest of her life. Here she wanted someone else to be in charge. He was doing just that. Pressed against the table, he pounded into her with fervent need. He slapped her ass, while his other hand rubbed her clit, sending her over the edge again. Pleasure shot through her body and she released a scream of pleasure as she orgasmed all over his cock.
That must have turned him on more, because he pounded into her relentlessly. After a moment he slowed down, leaning his body over hers. He bit her softly where her shoulder met her neck, sending pleasure racketing through her.
“Put my cock in your mouth,” he said in a husky voice next to her ear as he stepped back, pulling out of her.
Getting off the table, she dropped to her knees. Running her tongue up his shaft, she moaned, loving the taste of herself on him.
When she took his head in her mouth, he released a moan of his own. “Ahhhhh, god that feels good.”
Pleasure washed through Brenley at what she knew she was doing to Zane.
Looking down at Brenley, Zane relished watching his cock slide in and out of her mouth. Grabbing a fistful of her hair, he drove his cock deeper inside her. Her lips were so soft. She was a natural at taking him. Most girls couldn’t get the length of him inside them but Brenley didn’t seem to have a gag reflex. Feeling her hands slide up to the side of his ass, pulling him into her more, he sank his cock to the back of her throat.
He felt resistance but she pulled into him more. Slowly his cock slid down her throat. Holy fuck. Her lips came all the way up to the base of his cock until her face was buried against him. She loosed a hand and moved it to caress his testicles as she looked up at him. Sliding out, she took a deep breath of air before sinking back down onto him.
I’m in love. He felt his orgasm rising as she worked him in and out of her. Tired of trying to hold it back, he finally gave in, pulling her head all the way down on him. He released his orgasm down her throat.
His vision blurred as wave after wave washed through him. Brenley worked up and down his pulsing length. He couldn’t stop shaking from how good it was. Releasing her hair, he nearly fell over without something to balance him. He watched as she smiled up at him, letting his cock slide out of her mouth. She licked up his body, nibbling on one of his nipples before giving him a light kiss on the cheek and whispering in his ear.
“Breakfast was good.” He stared at her ass as she started walking away and she turned her head saying, “I’m going to take a shower, want to join?”
This woman is going to be the death of me. Or she may just show me that I wasn’t truly living before I met her. Following her, he smiled to himself thinking about taking her in the shower. And that’s exactly what he did.
After their morning exploits, Zane started researching Jay and Jennifer Teah. They appeared to have lived very normal lives. They both went to college and seemed to grow up in decent homes from the pictures and related data he pulled from the internet. He couldn’t imagine why anyone in their positions might be dabbling in illegal activity. They didn’t have any children and both were in their mid-thirties. They seemed happily married.
After spending several hours doing menial research, Zane decided to switch tactics. If he wanted to find out the good stuff he was going to have to do a little more work. He set in to hack each of their personal computers. Even though he was an experienced hacker and brilliant with computers, he was dumbfounded at the security he was facing. All he needed was to find one hole in their system and he would be in but it was like pulling teeth.
They both had layer after layer of security so he decided to focus on Jennifer’s first. Just when he would make it through one firewall, he would hit another snag. At that moment he was certain they had to be involved in some way. No one had security like this. Zane had hacked into banks with less security. After working most of the day, he smelled dinner cooking. A smile crossed his face. He never knew what Brenley was going to fix but it was always delicious. He liked to cook. He just wasn’t very good at it. She happened to be amazing at it, which was only one of her many talents.
He decided to take a break for a little while and go eat. It took him until the next afternoon to finally hack into Jennifer’s computer. Once he did, he ran a program to download her hard drive to his computer. There were huge amounts of data. He started sorting it as it came through. He began by checking for word editing documents and was flabbergasted at what he found.
Jennifer kept a journal on her computer that went back to high school. Clearly she must have felt very confident in her security system to have it on a computer that connected to the internet, but Zane supposed that not many other people could have gotten in. Actually he couldn’t think of anyone that could have hacked her computer. It had taken a supercomputer and every ounce of knowledge Zane possessed.
He skimmed her journal through random dates, trying to get an idea of who the person was who was trying to ruin his and Brenley’s lives.
Today wasanother day at school. Nothing interesting happened but I looked supercute. I can’t wait until I get out of that place. My teachers bore me to death. I wish they would realize I’ve already learned everything in the books. There isn’t even a reason for me to be here. I know I shouldn’t complain about it but everyone else seems so dumb. I can’t even find a boy that I like. Whenever they open their mouths it ruins it. I know I’m smarter than other people but I’m not sure they know how much smarter I am. It’s so easy to tease and play people. It’s really the only enjoyment I get out of school, tormenting all the boys. Well not much left to say today.
Another entry caught his eye.
Today marks the beginning of my senior year in college. It would be more momentous, I suppose, if it weren’t such a drag. I’ll know everything by the second week of class and all I have to do is flirt with my professors to pass. Show a little cleavage while I’m in a personal meeting with those old imbeciles and I’m guaranteed to pass. I don’t understand people in the world these days. They do everything like they’re supposed to, growing up, going to college and getting a job. Why not go for more? Everyone plays by the rules but it’s so boring. Good news though, I’m pretty sure Jay is my soul mate. He feels the same way I do. We could do great things together. We’ve both done exactly what we were supposed to and needed to in order to look the part. We’re considered respectable people and will have degrees soon. This is going to start a new era for us.
Scrolling through the files, there were so many. At least they were arranged in chronological order. He picked another one further down the list.
There is no doubt left in my mind. No one can get in mine or Jay’s way. We’ve successfully taken charge of the major criminal activity in the city for ourselves. We control everything, down to the mayor. There could be no better life than this. People go about their days thinking they’re in control and here we are behind the scenes controlling all of it. This is what it means to rule our world. Why be in the spotlight when we can sit in the shadows, getting everything we ever wanted? This is the only thing that could ever make sense. The strong should rule the weak and that is exactly what we’ve done. Time to get back to playing the innocent little bank girl who doesn’t know anything.
Zane and Brenley spent the next several days reading through all the information. They had all the evidence they would ever need. Along with her journal, they had all the information she kept on her and Jay’s illegal businesses.
According to Jennifer’s j
ournal she met Jay while in college. They didn’t know exactly what they had, until they kept pushing each other more and more. They figured out they were a match for each other in intelligence. The problem was they both had a chip on their shoulder about people they considered to be inferior. After graduating, they hatched a plan to build an empire for themselves.
Neither Jennifer nor Jay actually wanted to be famous or in the spotlight so they planned to amass an empire the best way possible—behind the scenes. They did their research on all the local criminals. It was small to them. Through careful maneuvering, they started cutting in on other businesses. Jay had a friend named Bart Underly who was extremely good at making people disappear. He took the fall for them when they first got into trafficking underage girls throughout the city.
Although he had that against him, Bart had never been involved in a murder case. He was extremely thorough and abundantly loyal. They rewarded him very well for his sacrifice and were more careful after that. It only took them a few years to amass control of their empire. They researched police officers and city officials heavily. They also did the same with ultra-rich businessmen.
They were extremely good at judging characters but also had enough people inside their net of influence that even if someone wanted to try to rat them out the police could make them disappear. They made examples of a few people and no one else got in their way. Jennifer was extremely good with technology, affording them the ability to stay hidden from others. None of their contacts were ever able to trace them.
Their greatest success had been blackmailing the mayor. Jennifer had roomed with Laura in college and they had become close friends. Laura had a mischievous side to her, so Jennifer decided to exploit that. She had Jay contact her over an untraceable phone with a voiceover. She had no idea it was them but after everything was explained, she agreed to take part. They paid her well and the mayor also paid her. She kept it going so she made sure Frederickson never lost his nerve.
The chink in all their plans had been when a private note was delivered to Brenley accusing Frederickson of investing illegal money. Brenley didn’t let it go. Jennifer was able to monitor her computer activity from inside the bank and knew what was happening. Armed with that knowledge, they had acted. They weren’t about to jeopardize all the money they had invested.
To Jennifer’s surprise, Frederickson had taken on an entirely new character. He was actually enjoying his venture onto the darker side of life. He ran with what was happening, all but taking over. It seemed that he enjoyed the perks he was getting and was also willing to do whatever it took to protect what was his. The real mystery in everything for Jennifer was where did the note come from? If someone knew, then they might know where the money was coming from. It didn’t ultimately matter. They had their escape plan if necessary and plenty of money to buy an island and live the rest of their lives on it. The last problem for Jennifer and Jay was finding Zane and Brenley. Despite all their attempts at locating them, they had failed.
It made Zane smile when he read the journal entry describing how frustrated Jennifer was that Zane had shown up at one of their “massage” parlors.
Zane and Brenley made a plan. They would write up an article exonerating themselves and revealing the truth about everything. Brenley offered to write the article if Zane sorted everything. To Zane’s pleasure, he found Brenley was actually an incredible writer. Zane compiled the information and she used it along with the journal to put a story together. It took them nearly a week by the time they had it all sorted. They had thousands of reference pages and a solid twenty-page magazine article.
Zane had been featured in plenty of magazines so he started the process of contacting the people he knew. The plan was to get Brenley’s article in a magazine prominent enough that it would clear their names, along with sending all their evidence to the FBI. They still didn’t know if they could go to the police or not, so they figured that was the best way. These people had publicly humiliated them so they were going to publicly reclaim their lives.
Using an untraceable phone, he started calling his past interviewers. It didn’t take long before one of them called him back accepting the story. They would run a special issue on it, with him as the feature. This was going to be the biggest story of the year, he thought. Emailing the story over to the magazine, he looked over at Brenley smiling.
They had done it. They had pieced together an impossible story and in turn cleared their names. The thing that Zane was really smiling about though was that they had overcome what seemed impossible. Brenley had all but hated him a few weeks ago but now they were lovers.
Or something like that, Zane thought.
He wasn’t exactly sure. It didn’t seem right trying to force his feelings on her when they had been in such a tight situation. Maybe once the magazine released the article he would be in a better position to talk with her.
All they had to do now was wait. That was something Zane was fine with doing with Brenley there to keep him company. The next several days went by quickly for both of them. They were finally able to relax and actually get to know each other more. Brenley taught Zane how to be a better cook while he taught her about his trading system. They each had things to offer each other and the more they each got to know, the more they valued the other person.
Zane felt the passion he had for Brenley increasing. Before now they were united in a single common cause. Now they were stuck together waiting for the outcome to play out but were also thoroughly enjoying each other’s company. Everything she did to him was magic. The way she walked left him panting. He couldn’t take his eyes off her when she would walk around the house wearing only one of his button-up shirts. It was maddening. She still hadn’t moved into his room. They slept apart every night. He wanted to invite her to stay but couldn’t find the words.
It was like there was a wall between them. They each knew they cared for each other but were unwilling to admit it. Zane’s insecurities were ruling him. He worried that if he told her how he felt she would reject him altogether. It was better to have her the way he did rather than not have her at all. Once the story broke, she would be back to her everyday life and he would be back to his.
It didn’t matter that he had dreamed of her every day since he met her, even before they were brought together. It was odd how no one understood how he felt. Yes he was in the spotlight but he was also insecure. He may be smart in some ways but he was also lacking in others. All the girlfriends he had through the years were only because they approached him. He had never actually put himself on the line.
If you never put yourself on the line you never face failure.
Zane started retreating within himself. He knew as soon as the story broke, things would change immensely. He would have tons of interviews and other pointless things to do. Brenley would probably go back to being the mystery she had been before. He had played his cards carefully. He had a very good sense of people’s personalities. He had waited as long as he could for her. He had resisted his primal temptation in order to get through to her emotional side.
When Zane looked at Brenley he wanted to see himself reflected in her eyes. She held that potential. She could be the one that would give herself to him completely. Yes, he might have had tons of girlfriends and other paramours but that didn’t mean he had feelings for them. On the contrary, he had reserved himself for someone he found worthy.
Now that he had found her, he wasn’t sure he was the worthy one. They cooked dinner every night and even though he tried his best she was always correcting him in some way. They were crazy about each other. He knew that. They had sex a minimum of three times a day. It was crazy to think she was the same stuck-up bank girl. She had turned out to be a match for his own sexuality. Although he hadn’t shown his true colors yet. He wanted to make her his. So far they had really good sex and lots of it but they were both holding back.
She knew it as well as he did. He could tell. They kissed passionately and could see the dep
ths of each other’s feelings but weren’t willing to do certain things. Zane dreamt about releasing himself inside her. Whenever he had been close a few times she had always sensed it and taken him in her mouth. He could have been forceful but that wasn’t his way. He wanted her to want him to do it.
It was only one day before the special issue was supposed to be released and Brenley was starting to get worried. The time she and Zane had spent together the last several weeks had been all but amazing. They got to know each better and more intimately. She was feeling anxious though because she wasn’t sure what was going to happen next.
They had both been bonded together over a situation but that was about to end. She had no doubt he held her heart. The problem was that she didn’t know if it was safe or not. Zane had grown a little distant and she could feel herself doing the same. Neither of them wanted to think of what would happen once their stint as fugitives was over.
Brenley thought Zane would go back to doing what he always did. Date a bunch of girls who were about as shallow as it gets. He would get back into the spotlight and forget all about her. Even though she had these thoughts she also had underlying feelings telling her differently. What if he stayed? What if he ended up trying to be the man he could be? There was no doubt in her mind that he was the one for her.
The only question was how she would ever be good enough for him. He was above and over the top. He was good at almost everything. Well, maybe not cooking and some other things but he was the most impressive person she had ever met. Physically he may be a complete dream but there was more. He was someone who was caring and intimate. She had gotten to know this side of him but she was scared he would shut it off once everything ended.
He had gotten what he wanted after all, right? He had slept with her, made her his. Now he would do what he did with all his other women. He would toss her to the side for a new one. She couldn’t open her heart to someone like that. She needed to know he was going to be there for her. He needed to be the man who she knew he could be. He was passionate and strong and determined. He had set the bar for what a man should be in her life.
