I reach over and grab the plate of food. “Where’s yours? Or am I feeding you?” I get on my knees to hold up a piece of bacon. He takes a bite of it, then pulls the plate out of my hand and puts it on the nightstand.
“You’re too much of a temptation, Red. I should let you rest.” Even as he says the words, he’s coming down over me. He kisses me deeply before he trails his mouth down my body, heading straight for my sex. The man knows my body all too well. It doesn't take him long to make me come. He doesn't stop there, though. He keeps on devouring me until another orgasm hits me.
My body becomes too sensitive, and I try to wiggle away, but he grips my hips, letting me know I’m not going anywhere.
“I can’t!” My fingers dig into the sheets. “Daddy. Please. I don’t think—” The orgasm blindsides me. Black spots dance in my eyes as my whole body goes limp. I close my eyes as Tiernan pulls me more onto the bed and wraps me in his arms. My whole body hums with pleasure. I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to move again, so I don’t even try.
I jerk awake and immediately sit up, realizing that I must have passed out. Again, I don’t see Tiernan anywhere. What the hell? I crawl to the side of the bed and grab my clothes from the floor and start to get dressed. A part of my brain is telling me he did that on purpose. When he came back to the room, he said he thought he knocked me out for longer. So he went and did it again.
I drop my face into my hands. This is my chance. I could get away now. I could leave and take the threat away from here. My heart, too. The longer I spend with Tiernan the more I’m going to keep falling for him and making us into something we’re not. I pull on my hoodie as I make my way out of the room.
I see Aurora and Diego making out like high school kids on the sofa. I’ve never seen a man more in love than Diego. You’d think Aurora put the stars into the sky just for him. I follow the sound of voices toward the kitchen to see Bells and Barrow are fooling around, too. I think Barrow is licking chocolate off her neck.
“Sorry,” I say when Bells sees me.
“Barrow.” She laughs, pushing at his chest.
“I told you I wanted something sweet to eat.”
“You don’t have to go,” Bells says as I turn to leave the kitchen.
“I was looking for Tiernan, actually.” Bells looks to Barrow for an answer.
“Ah. I think he went for a walk around the perimeter, and then he said he was going to hit the gym.”
“Thanks.” I give them a smile as I leave. I jump out of the way when I see Charles carrying Clover over his shoulder. I’m sure he’s heading toward their bedroom. I fight the tears that burn behind my eyes. I’m happy for all of them, but I can’t help but be a little envious of their relationships.
Is Tiernan only with me because I was the last one standing? That same thought comes to me again. He sure as hell hadn’t liked me when I first arrived. I can’t say I blame him since I was technically trespassing on their land, but that’s beside the point. It doesn’t go unnoticed by me that he tends to avoid me unless we’re in the bedroom together.
Even now after everything we’ve done together, he’s still avoiding me. I could understand him having to do a perimeter check, but did he really have to go to the gym? He’s always freaking volunteering to do the check outside. He couldn't for once get someone else to do it? Gah. I sound so freaking clingy.
I return to the bedroom and grab my bag. I run my fingers along the lining, pulling it back to grab the fake passport and ID I had made along with the prepaid cards and cash. I shove everything into my pocket, wishing I still had a phone. I grab my boots and pull them on. It will be the best thing for everyone if I got out of here. It will keep them all safe. It will also keep my heart that way.
I slip out of the bedroom and keep my head down as I walk to the garage. I luckily don’t run into anyone. Once inside with all the vehicles, I spot the keys hanging in the ignition of the snowmobile.
“Bingo.” I dart over toward it, making sure I know where everything is on it before I open the garage door. I grab a helmet and my coat off the rack, and then I hit the garage door opener. Once I hear the door begin to open, I head back to the snowmobile. I put the helmet and my coat on quickly and reach down to turn the key, but I don’t make it.
