I slumped into the driver’s seat the second I left the underground club, slamming the door harder than necessary.

Dammit.

My hands were still tingling from touching her. From squeezing that soft, thick ass. From feeling her warm./soaked pussy grinding against my thigh through that pathetic excuse of a dress.

I lifted my right hand to my face and inhaled deeply.

“God.

It still smelled like her, sweet strawberry, and nervous sweat. My cock twitched painfully in my pants, already half-hard again just from the memory.

I didn’t leave.

Instead, I drove only a few meters away and parked in a shadowed spot with a clear view of the club’s side exit. I needed to make sure she got home safe. The middle of the night in this part of the city was no place for my Trouble.

I leaned the seat back slightly, breathing hard.

“Fuck, Astra…” I muttered, unzipping my pants and pulling out my thick, throbbing cock.

It was already leaking, the fat vein pulsing as I wrapped my hand around it. I stroked slowly at first, eyes half-closed, replaying every second of her lap dance, the way her hips rolled shyly, how her full tits nearly spilled out, the little whimpers she made when I grabbed her ass.

I tightened my grip, stroking faster, imagining her on her knees instead, those innocent blue eyes looking up at me while she choked on my cock.

“Mine,” I growled under my breath, hips jerking into my fist. “All fucking mine

It didn’t take long. With a low, guttural groan, I came hard, thick ropes of cum spilling over my hand and onto the tissues I’d grabbed just in time.

I cleaned up quickly, chest still heaving, then leaned back and waited.

I pulled out my phone, checking the spyware feed again and some other things to pass the time.

Around 2 AM, I finally saw her.

Astra hurried out of the side exit, wearing a simple black coat over what looked like a gown, arms wrapped around herself against the cold.

She looked small and was shivering.

“Fuck, baby…” I muttered under my breath. “You’re going to get sick.”

I started the car and followed at a careful distance, headlights off until we were far enough from the club. She made it to the bus stop, sitting down and rubbing her arms. I was half a second away from storming out and dragging her into my car when the bus finally arrived.

She climbed in.

I followed the bus the entire way, staying far back but never losing sight of it.

When she finally got off near the estate, I watched her walk up the long driveway, still hugging herself against the chill.

Only when she disappeared safely inside the mansion did I let out a long breath.

She had the money now.

She was safe for tonight.

But I was going to make sure she never had to do anything like this again.

Whether she wanted my help or not.

Wednesday Morning

I woke up tired as fuck and in a foul mood.

Sleep had been restless, dreams filled with Astra in that sheer black dress, grinding on my lap, her soft whimpers in my ear. I’d jerked off twice in the middle of the night just to take the edge off, but it wasn’t enough. Nothing was enough when it came to her.

I dragged myself out of bed, brushed my teeth aggressively, and took a long, cold shower. The freezing water did little to calm the constant ache in my chest or the one in my dick. I dressed in my Harrington uniform, the tie loose around my neck, hair still damp.

I was eager to see her.

Too eager.

I made my way downstairs, following the sound of the twins’ voices and Astra’s soft laughter. I stopped at the dining room entrance, leaning against the doorframe without announcing myself.

There she was.

Astra sat with Lucas and Mason, wearing her school uniform, white blouse tucked neatly into the pleated skirt, long golden hair pulled back into a high ponytail that swayed every time she moved her head. A few loose strands framed her face, she looked so fucking pretty it hurt.

My eyes traced every detail greedily. The way the blouse stretched slightly over her chest. The soft curve of her waist. Those thick thighs pressed together under the table. The gentle smile she gave Lucas as she helped him with his breakfast.

“Mine.

The word echoed in my head like a prayer and a threat at the same time.

She turned her head slightly and froze when she saw me standing there.

Our eyes locked.

For a few long seconds, the world narrowed to just us. Her cheeks flushed that pretty shade of pink I loved so much, and I couldn’t stop the grin that spread across my face.

The spell broke when the school bus horn blared outside.

The twins jumped up excitedly.

“Bye, Astra!” they chorused, rushing to hug her tightly.

“Bye, Zane!” they shouted as they ran past me.

Astra stood up, grabbing her backpack, and slowly walked toward me but I didn’t move from the doorway, blocking her path.
