I can’t get too close, I can’t let my guard down, and I definitely can’t make her smile.

“You’re getting attached,” Nix tells me as if I didn’t know. “Remember where this is going. The more attached you get, the worse it will be.”

“I know.” I fucking know.

I spent the rest of the drive memorizing her face, running my fingers over her smooth skin and through her silky hair, knowing she would never let me do this if she was awake.

Too soon, Nix pulls into our driveway. The car stops in front of the door, and he cuts the engine. I wait for him to walk around and open the door before I carefully lift her into my arms and get out of the car.

Leni is still out cold, her head leaning against my chest as I carry her up stairs. It’s not until we’re inside her room that she shows first signs of waking up.

“Mmhhhh…” She moves her shoulder like she is trying to escape my hold, but then she turns her face toward me and buries it into my shirt with another moan.

“Get her zipper,” I whisper as low as I can. Leni’s cheek is pressed against my chest, and I don’t want to wake her.

Nix moves closer, unzipping her dress while I hold her. Just as he finishes, Leni tilts her head up and opens her forest-green eyes for a moment. Her gaze is unfocused, but still, there is recognition. I’m expecting her to start fighting, kicking, and screaming.

Instead, she simply looks at me as if she is happy to see me. A faint smile appears on her lip. I keep searching her eyes for an ounce of hate, fear, or resentment, but there is none.

I’m well aware that the only reason for this is the mixture of pain meds and alcohol, yet I can’t help but enjoy it. She’s never looked at me this way before, and I doubt she ever will again.

The way she looks at me is so foreign, it takes me a moment to even recognize the feeling. It’s trust. Right now, she places a kind of trust in me that couldn’t be more misplaced.

Her eyes flutter shut, and the moment is gone. Forever lost in the dreadful chaos that is our life.

“Are you going to put her down?” Nix questions when I don’t move.

“Yeah, I was just enjoying the moment. The absence of loathing in her eyes is kind of refreshing.”

“You know it’s better this way.”

Yes, I fucking know it. Now more than ever.

Gently, I move Leni around so Nix can pull the dress off her before I place her on her mattress. The dress must have had one of those built-in bras because I'm a little surprised when I find her chest bare underneath.

Fuck, she’s perfect. Spread out in her bed in nothing but panties, I get to take her in, feast on the view like she is a fine piece of art. For a while, I wondered what it was about her that had my dad so fucking obsessed with her. I understand now.

She’s flawless.

Her red hair falls into a fiery halo around her angelic face. Her slender neck is begging to have my fingers wrap around it, the smooth skin of her collarbone and shoulder needs to be kissed, and don’t even get me started on those tits.

I groan, readjusting my slacks to make room for my rock-hard cock.

“You know…” Nix trails off.

“What?” Turning my head, I stare at him over my shoulder. He rubs his chin like he is deep in thought.

“You know she’s a virgin.”

“Of course I know.”

“What if she wasn’t?”

“Huh?”

“We could help her lose her virginity… tonight. She is not going to fight you. She might not even remember any of this tomorrow.”

My first thought is no, absolutely not. But the more I think about it, the better the idea sounds. I’m sure this is not how should want her first time to go over, but this would still be a hundred times better than what my father had planned for her.

“I’ll do it,” I blurt out before Nix can get the wrong idea. I know he wouldn’t mind popping her cherry either.

“I figured. But I’m staying.” Nix flops down on the chair in the corner.

“No video.”

“The old man is going to be furious if he doesn’t get a recording of this.”

“I know.” I'm willing to take the risk. “He can punish me later. Maybe we get lucky, and he gets so angry he has a heart attack.” That would be too good to be true.

Quickly, I slip out of my shoes, unbutton my slacks, and let them slide down my legs. I discard the rest of my clothes in a hurry, eager to crawl onto the bed with her. Once I’m naked, I do just that.

Kneeling on the bed, I dip my fingers into her panties and slide them down her long toned legs. Using my knees, I wedge myself between her thighs before blanketing her body with mine.
