Ariana pulls back, and the corner of her mouth lifts. “No, we’re good.” She scrunches her nose then says, “I’ll even vote for you at the meeting.”
He lets out a chuckle. “You better.”
Moving to the other couch, I drop down on it, letting out a sigh. “The two of you are going to make me old.” I lie down, then look at Ariana, “Come to me.” She gets up and lies down beside me, and I wrap my arms around her.
“The meeting is at seven tonight,” Alexei says as he gets up. “I’m going to relieve Carson.”
When Alexei walks out of the living room, I bring a hand to Ariana’s chin and force her to look up at me. “Better?”
“Much.”
I stare into her eyes, and when they turn soft like they did after the shootout, the knot in my chest loosens. I move my hand up and trail my fingers over her temple and cheek.
“You understand that you and Alexei are both important to me, right? He’ll never hurt you, but let’s say the impossible happens, and Alexei does try to hurt you, I’ll protect you. Even from him. But you have to understand it works both ways. If you try to hurt him, I’ll be forced to stop you.”
“I understand.” She gives me a smile. “You’re not picking a favorite. I get that.”
I press a kiss to her lips, then the corner of my mouth lifts. “Still glad I kidnapped you?”
Ariana nods, then lays her cheek down on my shoulder. “I’ll get the hang of it soon.”
Chapter 26
ARIANA
While the others check the weapons, I take a quick shower. My stomach is tight with nerves, and by the time I wrap a towel around my body, my legs feel weak with stress.
This will be my first Bratva meeting, and I’ll come face to face with Yuri.
God. That’s if I don’t die from hyperventilating.
Closing my eyes, I focus on slowing my breaths, but it doesn’t help that it feels like my heart is being crushed in a forceful grip.
Demitri comes into the bathroom, and his eyes scan over the towel I’m clutching. “You okay?”
I take a deep breath and nod. “Just really nervous.”
He moves closer to me and softly trails his fingers over my shoulder and up my neck. Leaning forward, he brushes his nose along my jaw, and I hear him taking a deep breath.
Goosebumps spread over my body, and having him touch me instantly eases my nerves.
His mouth skims over mine, then he murmurs, “Want a distraction?”
I nod fast, leaning in to try and kiss him, but instead, Demitri places an arm behind my back and another beneath my knees, lifting me to his chest.
He carries me to the bed and then drops me on the mattress, my head in the middle of the bed. Standing back, he takes hold of his shirt and pulls it over his head, ordering, “Towel off and open your legs wide.”
Yes, Sir.
I do as he says while I watch him unzip his pants and step out of them. When Demitri is naked, I drink in the sight of him, my worry now a distant memory in the back of my mind.
Then he moves around the bed, and I tilt my head back as he comes to kneel behind me, his cock almost touching my hair.
Ah…okay?
There’s a hot smirk on his face as he stares down at me, and then his eyes move over my body. He leans forward, pressing a kiss between my breasts, and then his hands join in, and my eyes drift closed from how good it feels. As he moves down to my abdomen, the head of his cock brushes over my forehead. I tilt my head back again, and opening my mouth, my tongue darts out to circle the swollen head.
“Christ,” Demitri hisses against my skin. “Suck my cock into your mouth,” he orders. I can only take a quarter of him, but feeling the velvety skin against my tongue and tasting him sends a flush of heat between my legs. “Yes, Malyshka, just like that,” he praises me.
I’m so focused on sucking his cock I let out a muffled shriek when his mouth attacks my clit.
Demitri has no mercy as he sucks and bites at my sensitive flesh. I repay the favor by wrapping my hand around his base and stroking him while I suck as hard as I can.
It becomes a battle of who can make the other one orgasm first. I’m going to lose, but I give it my all.
My moans vibrate against his hard length, and his thrusts begin to speed up, the head of his cock flirting with my throat while his tongue dives into my entrance, swiveling and stroking me into another universe.
My hips buck up, and I shamelessly rub myself against his mouth.
