CHAPTER NINE
Silver’s nerves were on edge. The moment Dom and Jonathan left she felt as if her world were spiraled out of control. She needed to focus on something, anything. She’d spent most of the day in silence as she watched Maverick conclude his business deals. The lull of time made her weary, yet still jumpy. As if on cue Maverick threw up a finger, mimicking for her to give him one minute. However, one minute was way too long.
Silver let her eyes wander up and down Mavericks sculptured frame, his body relaxing against the bay windows made a delicious sight. Her eyes focusing on his belt buckle made her lick her lips. It was a large oval shaped silver buckle with etchings of snakes and skulls, menacing and exciting was the belt and the man wearing it.
Maverick shaking his head at Silver as if he was reading her mind, continued his phone call. He smiled snapping his fingers producing a glass of red wine and a glass of white which he floated over to Silver.
She in response snapped her fingers manufacturing a plate of cheese and fruit. Being in his presence has made her up her witchery. Maverick smiled as he continued his conversation.
Silver let her head tilt to the side as she bit down on her lip lightly. With a wave of her hand she slowly began to unbutton Maverick’s shirt. It wasn’t until she was midway that he realized what she was doing. Their eyes met, she smiled dragging her tongue across her full sexy lips.
Maverick shook his head, and mouthed the word stop, while continuing his conversation.
Silver was determined to get his attention, more than that she wanted him. She never met a warlock as powerful as Maverick. His powers made him even sexier than his features and that was saying a lot because the man was fine as hell.
With a snap of her fingers and a wave of her hand Silver removed Mavericks belt. She didn’t realize the speed in which he could move. But before she could blink her eyes, he was across the room, his strong muscular arm circled her waist and in a blurred flash they were in his bedroom. The look in Maverick’s eyes made her shiver.
“So, you wanna play, love?” he asked.
Before she could respond he rained kisses down her forehead, along her nose and gently across her lips. When the kiss deepened, she could feel his penis growing beneath his trousers. The sound of her zipper screamed loudly in the still room.
Silver felt the cool air brush against her exposed back as Maverick pushed the silk fabric off her shoulders. On her tippy toes she kissed his chin, until he once again enslaved her awaiting mouth.
Standing in her red lace underwear, she began to undress Maverick. A small grin graced her face as he closed his eyes as she removed his clothing, lightly touching his fever pitch skin. Sure, she could have snapped her fingers to achieve the same results, but physically removing each garment while brushing against his furry chest made her juices flow. Silver was happy to see he went commando as she removed his pants unleashing the beast, she wanted to set free.
“Take my mind off Alivia, I don’t want to think of anything or anyone.” She whispered softly against his cheek, as she ran her hands along the steel plains of his chest.
He inhaled deeply and released a sigh which pleased her. She wanted him to know the desires she was feeling matched his.
Silver placed tiny kisses across Mavericks chest, slowly going lower, until she found herself on her knees, staring at his massive erection. Without hesitation, she licked the head of his cock before sliding it into her hot wet awaiting mouth. She enjoyed sucking his dick for it was just the right size and length for her mouth. She knew without a doubt she was hooked, she had fallen and fallen hard for Maverick, yet falling for him seemed natural, natural as breathing. It was as if she’d known him all her life. His magic excited her, the way he called her love, and the way he looked at her made her glow inside and out. He had a way of making her feel special.
The feelings soaring through Maverick was startling. Her thoughts and his thoughts heightened his fever. He didn’t want her to know he could hear her thoughts for it wasn’t intentional. Somehow, they were linked in ways he could not explain.
Her mouth was a pleasurable torture to him, the sensation made him want to bury himself inside her, to conquer her, to claim her as his own for now and forever. Maverick pulled Silver up against his fevered body. Grabbing hold to her ponytail he removed the holder from her hair.
“When you’re with me, lose the ponytail,” he growled softly.
“It keeps my hair in place.”
“I like it wild, and untamed, love.”
“Are you sure you’re talking about my hair?”
“Maybe, maybe not.”
Before she could reply, Maverick whisked her over to his bed. She felt small upon the huge bed. The scent of cologne on his pillows surrounded her making her head reel.
Reaching for Maverick she said, “Come here.”
With a wave of his hand and a snap of his fingers. Maverick tied Silvers wrist and ankles to his bed post with an assortment of silk neckties.
“Oh!” She exclaimed, surprised by the turn of events.
“You are so beautiful. Your skin is flawless.” His hands stroked her warm cocoa colored flesh, admiring the little moles splashed around her neck and shoulders. The bra she wore hooked in the front, with just a nod of his head he unsnapped the enclosure. Because her hands were tied he was unable to remove her bra, without magic. With a snap of his fingers the thin material disappeared. Maverick inhaled deeply at the brown globes that heaved up and down as Silver’s raspy breathing sang a song to his ears.
“I want you, I want you now!” she cried.
“You have me, love. Yet, some things need to be savored.” He took the right nipple between his teeth and moaned against it as she squirmed beneath him. Maverick bit down gently on the tender flesh, allowing the pressure to give her both pain and pleasure. To soothe the onslaught, he sucked and licked until she cried out in delight.
“Yes, oh yes!” she cried out in a hoarse voice.
Trailing kisses across her slightly round belly Maverick gently nipped little bites on each curved hip, until he reached her mound. He whisked her panties away with wave of his hand. Her scent engulfed his senses which enticed beyond belief. The closer he got to her pussy, the harder his cock became. He slipped his tongue between her nether lips causing her hips to rise off the mattress, bringing her closer to his mouth. Maverick feasting on the succulent morsel of her clit, enjoyed taking her to higher heights as she moaned against the pillows surrounding her.
The moment her orgasm hit, he entered her wet, hot pussy, enjoying the way her walls clenched onto his cock. Slowly and rhythmically he made love to Silver.
“Look at me, Silver. Look at me love,” he whispered.
His thick heavy baritone voice made her want to cream all over his dick, again. For some reason it took some effort to open her eyes completely and when she did, she couldn’t look away. His eyes were hypnotic. She felt as if she were walking into his soul.
Maverick untied her arm, then her legs, placing them around his shoulders keeping his eyes locked on hers.
Silver gasped as the change of position allowed him deeper access to her G-spot.
“Oh, damn Maverick, you’re driving me crazy,” she cried out.
“Love, I’ve lost all reason when it comes to you so join the club.” He grunted as his thrusts became quicker and stronger.
Silver’s nails raked over his back and in response he bit her shoulder, placed hickeys over her slender neck and shoulder.
“Damn, here I come baby.” He hissed.
The emotion in his voice and words he spoke caused her to shatter into a million pieces.
“Oh my, ahh, ooh Mave…rick!”
“Shit, woman,” he yelled as his body trembled from the force of his ejaculation.
Together they laid with their bodies entwined both breathing heavy and laboring before laughing out loud.
“What spell have you cast upon me, witch?”
“None.”
“I feel the same. So, master of wizardry what have you done to me?”
“Loved you with all I have. I’m smart enough to know I’ve fallen for you witch, and stupid enough to admit it to you. You make me weak, it’s been like that the moment I saw you sitting upon my throne,” he exhaled.
Before Silver could tell Maverick her declaration of love, the intercom interrupted their private moment, once again.
Looking at the small box on the wall Maverick bellowed, “Speak!” his voice no longer low and tender.
“Sorry for the interruption boss, were back.” Dominick announced.
“Obviously Dom, now tell me what I want to hear.”
“Mission was successful, we have the sister.”
Silver had begun dressing the moment she heard Dominick’s voice, with a snap of her fingers she was in the throne room.
CHAPTER TEN
Silver ran at breakneck speed toward Alivia, who was in the middle of a conversation with Dominick and Jonathan. Neither of them saw Silver popped into the room.
“Alivia!”
“Sil!”
They both met in the center of the large room, their embrace lasted a few seconds as they rejoiced in their reunion. Both women crying with emotional joy.
I thought I’d never see you again,” cried Silver as she examined her sister assuring herself that Alivia was okay.
“I wasn’t sure if I’d get out that room.” Alivia placed her hand on Silver’s cheek, then said, “Oh my God Silver Elizabeth Weber, you have hickeys on your freakin neck, what in the hell.” She broadcasted before adding, “And your lips, your hair, what have you been up to, and with whom?”
“Shh, keep it down, damn.” Silver magically whisked them into the dining room, where she snapped her fingers and produced a pitcher of white wine sangria, along with Alivia’s favorite, crab cake sandwiches.
“Now I know something is up. Ms. don’t do magic, doing magic! Magic, magic…”
“Stop, sit and eat.” Silver said as she sat in Maverick’s chair at the head of the table. The moment she sat down and reached for her glass, Maverick walked into the room. To Silver, he was bigger than life, as the sunlight loomed behind him. He was wearing a black short sleeve tee with a black pair of black jeans with his silver skull belt. He looked, devilishly handsome, and dangerous.
“Hello Alivia, I am happy to finally meet you. Forgive my manners, I’m Maverick Moor, leader of The Manhattan Watch, welcome to my home.” He kissed her hand.
Maverick walked over to Silver and whispered, “This chair too? I will make sure I have replicas just for you, love.”
“Thank you, and thank you for saving my life,” Alivia looked between Maverick and Silver, and smiled. She was happy that her sister final got some dick and from the look of things a man in her life. Before she could relish on the idea, Dominick walked into the room and her stomach dropped. Her throat became dry as the Sahara Desert. Draining her glass of sangria she absently poured a second glass while trying to ignore Dominick’s presence in the room.
Silver tilted her head to the side and smiled, she caught the interaction between Alivia and Dominick and the gleam in Alivia’s eyes.
“Dom, thank you for rescuing my sister, please join us. I whipped up some of Alivia’s favorites.”
Dom the dutiful second in command, looked to Maverick for approval, in which Maverick nodded in acceptance. Dom took a seat next to Alivia. He smiled as their eyes met and they stared deeply into each other’s eye until he remembered they weren’t alone.
“Thank you again Dominick.” Alivia said softly, trying to recover from her embarrassment. She leaned over and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
Maverick placed his hand on Silver’s shoulder, “Stay, I like you there, love.” He took her hand, kissed her palm before he sat in the chair beside her, when he looked at Dominick he whispered, “Non anche tu.”
Dom looked at his plate, the words Maverick recited rang in his ears, ‘Not you too’. Yes, him too. He knew the moment he saw Alivia that he would protect her with his life. He never allowed himself to love another, but this was different, unplanned and unexpected she captured his heart with just one look. Dominick didn’t know if Alivia felt the same way, however, he was willing to take the chance. However, now was not the time, danger was still present. The person or persons who started this ridiculous war was still at large.
“Jonathan has the prisoners in a holding cell, the sooner we get the information on who their working for the better.”
“Could there have been something you might have overheard?” Maverick asked Alivia.
“Nothing, they didn’t interrogate me or ask me any questions.”
“So, you have the kidnappers?” Silver asked Dominick.
“I guess. We have an old man who owns the shop Alivia was being held at, an eager young man who kept watch, and a feisty redheaded witch.” He revealed.
Silver jumped out of her seat, “What! You have that red-headed bitch, here?”
“Hold on love, before you go on the attack, we need some answers.”
“Oh, I can help you get the answers we need. I plan to rip her black heart out of her fucking chest.”
“Not if I get to her first!” Alivia announced.
Dominick eyes widen as both women stood, ready to do battle.
Maverick slammed his fist on the table, “Enough!”
Both Silver and Alivia slowly sat down, the look of determination and anger still visible on their faces. They’ve never looked more alike than they did at that very moment.
“I have a score to settle with her, we both do Maverick. Surely you can understand that.” Silver announced.
“Right now, I think you should call your aunt and Axel and let them know Alivia is safe with us,” he said.
Grace was overjoyed by the news, it seemed like time stood still since Alivia’s kidnapping.
“What a blessing it is to have her back. Axel is here, I will let him know.”
“Good, we can celebrate tomorrow, here.” Silver announced, her eyes locking with Maverick’s, as he nodded in agreement.
“That sounds great I can’t wait. Axel has told me so much about Maverick’s place, unbelievable is how he describes it.”
“It is that. I’ll be sure to show you around even though I’m still learning the place.” She laughed.
“Let Axel know we have three of the kidnappers one of them is that redheaded bitch. Maverick has yet to interrogate them so hopefully we’ll have some answers to who is behind this thing when you come tomorrow.”
The moment Silver hung up the phone Alivia asked, “Why is Axel at Aunt Grace’s house, I mean why is he even still around?”
“He’s still around because you’d been kidnapped! Because he’s been helping us try to find you, Liv. Damn give him a break.” Silver was tired of Alivia’s negative attitude towards Axel. He’s always treated her as if she too was his godchild. He is and will forever be family. Axel was there when their own father wasn’t.
“You’re the only one who has an issue with Axel, only you.” Silver shouted.
“He’s up to something. I know he is.” Alivia countered.
“Yes, he’s up to keep a promise made to our mother a long time ago. He’s just trying to look after us.”
“Okay ladies how about we table this conversation and enjoy this wonderful meal before us.” Maverick said while passing the platter of coleslaw to Silver. “I’m sure after eating you would enjoy a hot shower or bath, whichever you prefer.” Maverick said addressing Alivia.
“I’d rather spend time talking to the prisoners.” Alivia pouted.
“When the other Watch leaders, as well as your aunt and Axel arrive I will cross-examine the prisoners. Trust, we will get to the bottom of this, nonsense.”
“I have a score to settle with the red-h
eaded bitch and would like to handle that situation as soon as possible.” Alivia announced venomously.
“Not before I have my time with her.” Silver chimed in.
“Can’t we just interrogate them now?” Alivia asked.
“Again, let me remind the two of you I am the judge, jury and executioner and will handle this matter as I see fit. My decisions will reflect that of The Watch and only The Watch. For now, I want them to sweat it out.” His firm voice echoed in the vast room.
No one said a word, you could hear a pin drop the silence was so deafening. Maverick looked at Dominick, displayed two fingers, then shook his head. He didn’t know how they would survive the night with the Webber sisters under his roof. He was able to read each one’s mind and knew the show of defiance was nothing new. True they loved one another, but they both possessed a strong obstinate will.
“I think the two of you need to relax, it’s been a long-drawn-out day.” Maverick stated in a gentler tone.
The night eased into morning without any drama. Maverick was relieved that after Alivia’s bath she collapsed into a deep sleep, along with Silver who after several stressful days and nights was able to sleep like a baby.
Maverick eyes gleamed when he opened the door to the courts chamber and saw Granger sitting with his eyes closed in deep thought or sleep. His long white hair glistened in the morning sunlight. His sharp blue eyes widened after Maverick took his first step into the room.
The deep wrinkles deepened around his eyes as he shouted, “Maverick, my son, are you ready to reap the fruits from your labor.”
“I’m ready to put a stop to this outrageous game of cat and mouse and remove the interloper from my city.”
“Soon! By the way this is Antony, Rosemond’s brother, he will be representing Rosemond today.”
“Welcome Anthony, I’ve heard of Rosemond’s troubles bringing his city together. I hope he can pull everything together.”
“Thank you, my liege. Rosemond apologizes for his absence and wishes you well.”
Silver and Alivia entered the chamber arm in arm. They both appeared cheerful, more than that allies, friends and sisters. Sleep evidently did both women good. Maverick kissed Silver on the cheek, then her lips, turning he placed a kiss on Alivia’s backhand.
