explained to him about Kent and his hygiene routine or rather lack of.
“Deal, but I want something in return.”
My body, which had started to heat up for another reason, froze while I waited for Tabby to continue.
“A kiss.”
“I’m not having sex with you.”
“Rayven how come each time I ask for a kiss you throw sex into the equation? I’m beginning to think this is your way of asking.”
“Alright, a kiss and nothing more. What the fuck are you doing?”
Tabby has removed his cut and T-shirt, exposing his chest to my hungry eyes, which I let rove over the bare flesh. Voraciously drinking in the sight of his tanned pecs. While I am busy studying his chest Tabby swiftly pulls me out of the tub and sits me on his knee.
“While we kiss, I want to feel those glorious tits against my body.”
Then his lips swooped down on to mine. Hungrily he began to feast on my mouth, whilst his hands cupped my ass, lifting me closer to him. Lost in the kiss, it came as a shock when I found myself falling forward as Tabby fell into the tub, his legs hanging over the edge. Frantically I struggled to free myself, trying to gain my balance. Eventually, after slipping a couple of times, and in between the laughter, I managed to get myself upright. Quickly I wrap a towel round my body, leaving Tabby as he continued to struggle in the tub.
“Well Rayven, that’s the first time a kiss, has floored me.”
My body was still tingling from the contact of Tabby’s body, as I put my summer dress on. Critically I looked at myself in the mirror. My baby bump was no longer a bump, but a giant ball. Tabby had managed to free himself, of both the bath and his wet jeans and was standing behind me in just his socks. In the mirror, our eyes clashed as once more Tabby cupped my belly, soothing junior.
“What happens after the baby’s born Tabby?”
With a tender touch that belied the strength hidden in the large hands, Tabby brushed my hair away from my face. Again, our eyes locked
“You stay here Rayven.”
“And what if I don’t want to. What if I want to date someone?”
Gone was his smile, his eyes now chips of ice as his hand curled my hair round his fist.
“That’s my baby and no one else is bringing it up Rayven. No one but me.”
The shiver, which passed through my body, has nothing to do with arousal, it was fright. Sometimes I forget that behind the lazy mask there is a ruthless persona. That this man will do everything in his power to obtain and keep what he wants. Wasn’t I prove of that? I destroyed his prize possession and in return, he destroyed my life.
For three years, he has had me working in that sleazy joint of a strip club. Each night I was at the place, I must have had every proposition thrown my direction. If I did something to annoy him, he would torture me. He would drop subtle hints that before long I’d have to dance to pay back for the damage caused to the Harley. On the nights Tabby has had me working as a waitress, every creep in Comfort Springs has practically touching up my backside.
Regrettably, I pull out of the comfort of Tabby’s embrace.
“I want more Tabby. I want my freedom. My family paid its debt to you on the night you sacrificed Kent in the name of the club.”
“No Rayven, The club owes Kent and that’s a debt to be paid back by Devil’s Comfort. Your debt is to me and only when I say it has been paid in full, will it be clear.”
“I begged you not to let Kent to become a member of your fucking club. Did you listen? No, of course you didn't. Instead, you made him a fucking prospect.”
“He’s a man Rayven, he asked to join. Do you think he’ll be happy to know his sister interfered in his life?”
“Go to the club Tabby.”
After dismissing Tabby, I turned my back to look out of the window. Below in the street, cars were driving pass. All of the people
