The Hunt for Summer (NSC Industries)

by Sidebottom, D H

  I sucked my lips in at the mention of Lucas.

  “Where is he?”

  Ava sighed heavily “He’s a little angry with you at the moment. Give him a while and he’ll be here.”

  I nodded faintly and turned to the window. “But he needs protecting now. I need to hire some security for him.”

  She smiled widely “Already on it, Lay, for you too.”

  “No, Ava. You need to leave me be. If I’m an easy target they’ll go for me instead of Lucas.”

  Ava scoffed loudly “You gonna tell Mason that?”

  I rolled my eyes again but left the argument knowing I wouldn’t win against Mason.

  “I need to get home” I said as I climbed off the bed and approached the en-suite. Ava followed me in and stood regarding me as I pee’d.

  “That’s okay but you take Neo with you.”

  “Neo?”

  She nodded slowly as I pulled everything back up and washed my hands. “Neo, security, bodyguard, protection. Whatever you wanna call it but he comes with you.”

  I sighed but nodded and stretched my aching neck “Fine.”

  I had relented easily because it was simpler that way but I was under no illusions that one guy, even if he was a hefty bastard, wouldn’t protect me against Diablo.

  Just because Mason had taken most of his men out didn’t mean there weren’t others. Others Diablo would pay well to get to me.

  I knew I would see Diablo again soon, and for now all I could do was sit back and wait because that’s what he enjoyed; the element of surprise, the chase, and the hunt.

  Chapter 28

  Lucas

  Red was pale when I entered her lounge. A big dark skinned bloke had answered her door and I knew he was her protection, Mason had even insisted I had my own muscle currently following me around.

  Her eyes lifted to mine when I walked in. She knew I was angry the way her throat bobbed and she sucked in her lips.

  “Bedroom” I said simply.

  She nodded, stood and walked past me and entered her bedroom.

  Sara smiled softly at me, knowing how I was both angry and so damn relieved to see her safe but my natural dominant traits had me in need of punishment. The urge to make her realise just what she had done coursed through me like a fire through an elevator shaft; hot, fast and fucking explosive.

  She stood silent as I walked in behind her and closed the bedroom door, “Strip.”

  She yielded immediately and removed all her clothes before she stood again, waiting for her next command.

  “Submit.”

  She instantly dropped before me and lowered her eyes and held out her wrists.

  I grabbed her hair and tipped her head back as I couched in front of her. “Do you have any fucking idea what I’ve been through, Red?”

  “No, Sir.”

  “Well, I’m gonna show you.”

  I stood and closed my eyes to try and control the anger inside me, she didn’t need that but she still needed to understand what she had put me through.

  “Bara, Red.”

  She rolled onto her stomach, placed her crossed wrists behind her back and crossed her ankles also. My cock shouted in delight, its throb alerting me to the fact that it wanted release quickly and I knelt aside her and clamped her wrists with the cuffs I had brought with me.

  Then I pulled her feet wide apart and secured each ankle to the spreader bar I had already placed in her bedroom before I had gone into the lounge to find her.

  Her breathing sped up and I could smell her arousal from where I was knelt behind her. Its potency saw my lust surge with hers.

  I walked around her and suddenly dropped on top of her, my knees either side of her waist as I gripped her hair and pulled her head back, resting my mouth beside her ear.

  “You don’t come. You don’t utter a sound and you definitely do not disobey anything I ask of you. I’m gonna take you and I’m gonna take you hard and rough, Red, just like the last 12 hours have been hard and rough for me.”

  She nodded, already obeying the command to be silent and I closed my eyes at my excitement. “I’m gonna make you so fucking horny and leave you so fucking desperate that you never fucking leave me again.”

  The tiny groan that left her lips gave me permission to yank her head harder, “Quiet!”

  I stood and walked back over to my bag and pulled out a few things in preparation for her torture.

  She looked so bloody hot, laid on her stomach, bound, naked and at my disposal that I released my cock from its prison. It was already hard and heavy and I knew it was gonna be a struggle to hold onto my orgasm so I stood before her and pulled her up into a kneeling position then tied the blindfold around her, cutting off another sense that she would now not be able to control.

  “Open your mouth, Red.”

  She immediately opened up to me and the sight of her had my balls tightening in provision to fill her exquisite little mouth.

  “Suck me and take it all.” I demanded as I placed my dick inside that beautiful space between her plump lips.

  She did as I asked and took it all, almost gagging when I hit her throat but she loosened everything up and took me deep. The groan that left my mouth was loud and guttural as she worked me, her little tongue flicked against my crown and I was immediately filling her mouth and throat with more cum than I had ever released.

  There was so much, she couldn’t take it all and it dribbled down the side of her mouth and onto her chin, eventually dripping off and onto her pert tight nipples.

  I knew she was holding back her own orgasm and the spreader would stop her from clenching her thighs together to hold it back.

  It shouldn’t have, but that knowledge made my spunk spurt even more fiercely into her mouth and I was positive I heard a slight moan leave her throat but I let her off with that one and pretended to ignore it.

  I pulled out, still semi hard and she left her mouth open. I watched my cum pour from her mouth. I crouched in front of her and took her mouth under mine, taking my own sperm with her tongue as we both mingled and swallowed it.

  “Fuck. I’m hard again already. You really are a dirty girl aren’t you?”

  She nodded, still controlling her verbal communication and I smiled at her professionalism.

  Straddling her back again once I had laid her back onto her belly, I reached for the lube I had brought and slid myself down her legs so I was now spanning her thighs.

  She gasped faintly when I placed some on my finger and worked it between her delightful arse cheeks. “You okay with this Red?” I asked. I wasn’t a complete arsehole that would take that part from her without permission.

  She nodded and I smiled wickedly.

  Fuck yes!

  I pulled off my jeans and shorts as I worked my finger slowly and her whole body shivered as I pushed in to her tightness.

  “You may be vocal” I told her, needing her moans to distinguish if I was pleasuring her or hurting her.

  She immediately groaned and I knew that she was enjoying my intrusion as much as my finger was.

  I pushed myself down her legs and pushed up her knees so her arse was in the air but her legs were still wide from the spreader.

  Using more lube I slipped another finger into her bum and circled them, opening her up ready for me.

  She was groaning loudly now and pushing her little bottom towards me. Oh, Red was definitely enjoying it and I flicked my tongue over her swollen clit.

  She growled loudly and I nearly came from the sounds she was expressing. They were from a woman full of lust, desire and need and I positioned myself at her back hole.

  “You ready, baby?”

  “Yes…” she breathed, now losing the Sir title in her deep arousal, as she lifted herself to me, offering all of herself to me and I groaned in appreciation of how much she gave me.

  I just wished she trusted me as much to take care of her.

  The feeling was pure rapture as I nudged in, her tight walls gripping me so
firmly my cock was already choking.

  “Fuck baby… so… so good…” I moaned, not sure if she heard me as a deep growl left her own throat.

  I managed to slide in my full length and paused for a moment for her to acclimatize to me.

  “Oh God…” she whispered as I started to move and I was relentless in my mission to take her hard and roughly but the way she vocalised her pleasure, it was what she needed too and we were soon both panting, sweaty and loud.

  I could feel the burn start at the bottom of my spine and shoot its way upwards and erupt into my brain as my climax hit and I shot everything I had into her. “Come. Now” I ordered. She sobbed out a choked relief as she tightened wildly and screamed out her own climax as I gripped her hair, yanked her head back and bit roughly into her neck.

  We bucked, jerked and cried out violently, each of us riding out the pleasure and the pain and I clung to her forcefully, needing to get her as close as possible.

  Hell, if I could have absorbed her right then I would have done.

  “Fuck, baby” I panted as we collapsed on the floor and I keyed open her cuffs, released her blindfold and unbuckled the spreader before I lifted her and curled us both up on the bed, pulling her into me as I held her.

  “You okay?”

  She lifted her eyes to me and smirked “Was that supposed to be a punishment?”

  I couldn’t hold back the wide smile “Yeah, supposedly. I don’t know what it is with you, but I seem to have a problem when it comes to punishing you.”

  “Well, remind me to be naughty a lot more” She whispered.

  We both laughed but my mood darkened suddenly and I turned her to face me “Don’t ever do that again. Are you hell bent on giving me grief?”

  She sucked on her lips and looked away and I could sense her conflict and although it hurt me to see her so troubled, I also needed her to see what she was doing to herself as well as me.

  “Baby, listen to me. I don’t need saving, I don’t need protecting and I certainly don’t need rescuing. But what I do need is you, by my side, with me, under me, just fucking here, with me.”

  “You don’t understand, Lucas. Diablo is relentless in his missions, and especially now Mase has pissed him off. You should have just left me there.”

  I bit my lower lip, desperately trying to hold in my rage at her words. “Do you want this as much as I do, Red?” I asked her seriously.

  She turned immediately and knelt before me. “Don’t ever say I don’t want you Lucas, ever. What I did, I did for you. He killed Ry, just as a warning. Do you even understand that Lucas? A warning of what he will do to you. It was just fun for him. Ry gave his life for me twice now, do you realise how that even feels?”

  “I know it’s hard for you Red…”

  “HARD? Hard?” she scoffed as she shook her head at me, “Hard doesn’t even begin to cover how I feel. I’m fucking terrified, I’m angry, I’m sad, I’m intimidated, I’m breaking inside Lucas at the thought of him getting to you, I’m petrified of what he will do to you cos’ believe me, it won’t be fucking pleasant. He will make you pay for what I’ve done, not for my benefit but for his own personal fun.”

  I rubbed my face as I climbed from the bed and pulled on my jeans, not wanting to have this conversation naked, it felt wrong.

  Red didn’t seem to be having that problem though and it was really hard to focus on her face instead of those magnificent tits of hers.

  “Put some clothes on, baby.” I asked and she lifted a brow at me but then a smile lifted her lips and her beautiful face transformed from stunning to fucking epically stunning and I grinned back as I trotted across the room to her and cupped her face.

  “You are so beautiful, Red. The way you smile lights my fucking heart. Nate has rearranged the France trip for tomorrow to suck up to the contacts we didn’t get to meet at the convention. The break will do you good, it’ll give you chance to relax without having to look over your shoulder all the time, then I might get to see more of that stunning smile of yours.”

  She nodded but didn’t say anything as she pulled on some clothes “Promise me you’ll be vigilant though Lucas, just keep looking over your own shoulder until we get to France.”

  I nodded just to ease her worry and she exhaled heavily at my promise. “You promise me the same, Red?”

  She nodded but I knew if I let her out of my sight for even a minute she would do a runner, she would make her way back to Diablo, her mind made up that would be the only way to keep me safe.

  It probably was, but there was no way I would let Red give up her freedom for mine. No way in hell.

  Chapter 29

  Layla

  I trundled through the airport with my pink spotty case for the second time in a week and as soon as I reached Nate, he pulled out a child’s security wrist band and fixed it to his wrist then mine. “Oh, ha, bloody ha.”

  He grinned mischievously and winked as Ava passed me a hot chocolate. Grimacing as I took a sip of the lukewarm airport sludge, Lucas appeared beside me and wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed the top of my head. “You made it then?” he smirked when he spotted the wrist band.

  I poked my tongue out at him and then shivered intensely as my whole body erupted in goose bumps. I stilled but nobody noticed as they were all immersed in a conversation about puppies of all things.

  I turned slowly; my breath trapped in my lungs and my legs trembled as I scanned the area rigorously.

  Nothing.

  Absolutely-no-one.

  I knew this was a private departure lounge as we were using Nate’s private jet but there should still be people around. Hostess’s, security, hell, even maybe a bloody cleaner, but there was no-one. Not one single person.

  “He’s here…” I choked out but all three of my escorts carried on with their mundane conversation.

  My breathing was becoming heavy as my eyes frantically swept every inch of the room for my bodyguard, Neo and Lucas’s, Gerry.

  Where the hell were they?

  “Lucas” I tried to get the words out but they were stuck in my throat, my terror holding them hostage inside me and I closed my eyes and forced them through. “Lucas!”

  He turned to me with a confused expression then his eyes narrowed and he scanned the space with me. He knew without me having to utter a word that he was here.

  “Fuck!” he hissed as he grabbed my arm and pulled me behind him.

  Nate took stance behind Ava… what the hell? If our situation wasn’t so dire I would have laughed at him.

  “Where the fuck is Neo and Gerry?” Nate growled and I shrugged.

  Ava moved forward and took position in front of me and beside Lucas, and they both backed up, moving me slowly backwards until I was sited at the wall. “You both need to get behind me, you’re sitting fucking ducks.” I cautioned.

  Ava shook her head and pulled out her phone and pressed an icon on it. It rang back immediately and she put it on speaker. “Where the fuck are your guy’s, Elijah?”

  A voice barked through the speaker and I jumped at the volume in my frazzled state. “I dunno, Ava. Neo and Gerry have lost connection but I see Accosi. He’s accompanied by four men, two through the door to your left and two with Accosi outside the main door to your room. I can’t understand why they’re waiting, doesn’t make sense.”

  “Fuck!” Lucas barked.

  We all swung our eyes to the main door and a shudder racked my body. “Shit, you all need to get out of here… now! He’ll come for me first.”

  Ava turned to me slowly and glared. “If I have to lay you out again, Lay, then I fucking will.” I just nodded at her fury and decided to shut my mouth. Nobody should ever cross Ava; she was the only person that had ever knocked Mason out, and out cold she knocked him.

  “Mason’s on his way, Ava. I’ve got men en route to you but listen to me carefully. Look to your right and up.”

  We all did as he asked and each head in that room swung right and up. “You see it?
”

  “Yep.” Ava answered and without waiting for further instructions she was making her way across the room and Nate was pulling a chair quietly behind her.

  She climbed on it and pushed at the heavy grid but it wouldn’t shift. Lucas gestured for her to climb down and he had a go but squinted at it then sighed heavily.

  “Not a chance. It needs leverage. No way is that moving.”

  We all cast an eye over the room and Nate smiled and approached a table before yanking off a leg then bounced his feet on one end of the metal pole to squash it. “Cheap airport furniture!” he tutted.

  He passed the makeshift tool to Lucas who stabbed it into on side of the grid and pried the metal grating open.

  It squealed loudly and we all flinched and looked at the door but Elijah told us we were safe. Diablo was still stood. What the hell was he waiting for? It didn’t make sense. He knew I was in here so why didn’t he just come in and get me?

  Lucas popped his head through the hole in the ceiling and then grabbed my waist and pushed me up and through.

  It was a metal passageway and I shuffled forward on my hands and knees to make room for the next person to climb in.

  Ava clambered in behind me and I kept moving forward. Nate was next and my heart didn’t beat until I saw Lucas scramble in lastly.

  “Go right at the junction.” Elijah’s voice came through Ava’s phone so I took a right and my heart stopped when we had to pass over another grid. It was directly above Diablo and I took a calming breath when Ava slapped my arse quietly.

  “Don’t look, Hun, just keep going forward” She whispered.
