Shackled (The Lord Series) by Carlos novel Chapter 4

4. Angel
I shrug. “Forget I was here. In fact, none of this has happened. Can I go now?”

“No!”

His left hand slides from my shoulder to my neck, his fingers wrapping around my flesh. For a moment, I have the impression he is going to strangle me, but his grip on me is light. “How can your father marry you off to someone like Carlos?”

“Business.” My father thinks I am clueless about what he truly does for the Dukes. He needs Carlos to… grow. “You know how it is.”

Alekos is quiet for a moment. His left thumb strokes my skin as he thinks, making my heart race. Traitor! Alekos has always been my weakness.

“Let’s say I accept your proposition, how do I know you are still a virgin?”

My brow furrows. “We can go to a gynecologist and have it checked.”

After a quick scan of my clothes—a black pencil skirt and a white shirt—he says, “That won’t be necessary. Lift up your skirt.”

The blood draws from my face. “What? Why?”

“Because I want to see and touch your pu ssy.” His right hand goes to my hair, freeing it from the bun I usually wear.

I look around. “But we are in your office.”

Is he planning on taking my virginity on his desk?

Well, if that is his wish… I can’t say ‘no’ after proposing it to him.

The things I have to do to get out of the city. Away from Carlos.

“I don’t have all day, Angel. You either lift your skirt and let me touch your pus sy, or you leave. Your choice.”

He is wrong. I don’t have a choice. I either do as he asks, or I die.

I close my eyes as I lift my skirt up. At least I am wearing a nice pair of panties today.

“Look at me,” he growls as he grabs my right hip.

I do as he asks, and I gaze into his eyes as he puts his right hand on my lower back. He inserts his knee between my legs, forcing them open. My heart beats so fast, I can practically hear it. No man has touched me before. I did a lot of exploration on my own. I might be a virgin, and I gave myself plenty of org a sms. But I never inserted anything in my vagina, knowing that it would hurt. I don’t really like pain. I stroke a scar I have on my right ring finger with my thumb while I wait for him to touch me.

Still looking into my eyes, he caresses my thighs, his fingers sending shivers down my spine. I bite back a moan. I did not expect to feel so… good.

He continues to tease me for a while before running his finger on top of my panties. If not for his knee still between my legs, I might have fallen. Being touched by a man is… amazing.

“Alekos,” I breathe.

Something flickers in his gaze, and he pushes my panties to the side. Without warning, he pushes his middle finger inside of me. I gasp. It hurts. His finger curls, and I try to bat his hand away, but he is much stronger than I am.

“Stay still,” he growls.

I bite my bottom lip as I keep running my thumb over the scar.

Alekos pumps his finger a few times before removing it and going over to his desk. “Sit,” he says, pointing to a chair across from his own.

My legs are trembling after his brutal invasion, but somehow, I manage to not only fix my clothes but also to make my way to where he wants me. Tucking a strand of hair behind my ear, I ask, “Do we have a deal then?”

He leans back in his office chair and runs his fingers through his short black hair. “Carlos won’t like that you left him, and he will do anything to get you back.”

“I know Carlos is a dangerous man, and he has connections all over the city, but so do you. Help me disappear, and I will spend the entire night with you. Anything you ask of me, I will do.”

Maybe I should not have said that, but I am desperate.

Finally, interest flickers in his gaze. “Anything?”

I nod because what else am I supposed to do? Or say?

A wicked grin spreads across his face for a moment. “Getting you out of the city won’t do. Carlos will find you no matter where you go. The safest way is to remain in the city.”
