LOGINChapter 4
Lucian didn’t give me time to breathe.
The first thrust buried him to the hilt thick, unrelenting, stretching me so wide I felt split open in the best, most terrifying way. My scream dissolved into a choked moan as my walls fluttered around him, trying to adjust, trying to take every brutal inch.
“Fuck,” he growled against my ear, voice raw. “So tight. So fucking perfect.”
He didn’t move at first. Just stayed deep, letting me feel him throb inside me, letting my body learn the shape of him. My cheek pressed into the sheets, ass high, wrists still pinned in one of his massive hands behind my back now. The position left me helpless open, exposed, owned.
Then he pulled out almost all the way slow, torturous until just the head kissed my entrance.
I whimpered. Empty. Aching.
“Beg for it again, princess.”
“Please” The word tore out of me, desperate. “Please, Daddy, fuck me. Hard. I need it.”
He slammed back in.
My vision blurred. Pleasure-pain exploded through me, white-hot. He set a punishing rhythm deep, deliberate strokes that hit that spot inside me every single time. The wet slap of skin on skin filled the room, obscene and endless. My breasts bounced with each thrust, nipples grazing the sheets, sending sparks straight to my clit.
“You feel that?” he rasped, grinding deep on the next stroke, circling his hips so the base of him dragged over my swollen clit. “That’s what a real man feels like. Not that pathetic excuse you almost married.”
Tears leaked from the corners of my eyes not from pain, but from the overwhelming rush of finally being wanted. Taken. Used like I’d always secretly craved.
“Yes—God, yes—” I sobbed. “More. Please, more.”
He released my wrists only to fist my hair, yanking my head back so my spine arched painfully sweet. His other hand cracked across my ass sharp, stinging.
I cried out, clenching hard around him.
“You like that,” he said. Not a question. “Dirty little girl. Getting off on being spanked while I ruin this tight cunt.”
Another smack. Harder. The heat bloomed across my skin, spreading straight to my core.
“Yes—Daddy—fuck—”
He fucked me faster now, relentless.
The bed creaked under us. My arms gave out; I collapsed forward onto my elbows, ass still high, taking every punishing thrust. His balls slapped against my clit with each drive home wet, rhythmic torture.
I was close again. Too soon. Too much.
“Don’t you dare come yet,” he ordered, voice like gravel. “Not until I say.”
I whined, thighs trembling. “I can’t..I’m gonna..”
He pulled out completely.
The sudden emptiness made me sob. “No..no, please”
He flipped me onto my back in one smooth motion. Spread my legs wide, hooked them over his shoulders. Looked down at me eyes blazing, cock glistening with my arousal.
“Eyes on me,” he commanded. “Watch who’s fucking you.”
He thrust back in deeper angle this time. I screamed his name.
He leaned down, caging me, forearms braced beside my head. His mouth crashed over mine brutal, claiming. Tongue fucking my mouth in time with his cock. I tasted myself on him. Tasted us.
One hand slid between us. Rough thumb found my clit rubbing fast, merciless circles.
“Come,” he growled against my lips. “Come all over Daddy’s cock. Now.”
The command shattered me.
The orgasm hit like a tidal wave harder than the first, violent, blinding. My whole body seized, back bowing off the mattress, walls pulsing around him in frantic waves. I screamed into his mouth, nails raking down his back, marking him.
He didn’t stop.
Kept fucking me through it harder, faster chasing his own release now. His rhythm faltered, breaths turning ragged.
“Where do you want it, princess?” he rasped. “Tell me.”
“Inside” The word flew out before I could think. “Please fill me up. I want to feel it.”
A guttural groan ripped from his throat.
He slammed in one last time deep, deep and came with a roar. Hot pulses flooded me, thick and endless. I felt every spurt, felt him throb inside me as he marked me from the inside out.
He stayed buried, grinding slow, lazy circles, milking every last drop while I trembled beneath him.
When he finally pulled out, I whimpered at the loss. Warmth leaked from me his cum, mine, mixed. Filthy. Perfect.
He didn’t let me wallow.
Lucian rolled to his side, pulling me against his chest. One arm banded around my waist, possessive. His free hand stroked down my spine surprisingly gentle now. Soothing the places he’d just wrecked.
“Breathe,” he murmured against my hair. “You did so good.”
I buried my face in his neck, inhaling smoke and leather and sex. My body still buzzed, oversensitive, wrecked in the best way. Tears slipped out again quiet this time. Relief. Release. Something dangerously close to safety.
He felt them. Thumb brushed them away.
“No crying unless it’s because I’m making you come too hard,” he said softly. Teasing, but tender underneath.
I laughed shaky, raw. “Too late.”
He kissed my forehead. “Then cry all you want, princess. I’ve got you.”
We lay like that for long minutes rain still pounding the windows, city lights flickering through the streaks. His heartbeat thumped steady under my cheek. Strong. Real.
Eventually he shifted, easing me onto my back again. He disappeared for a moment came back with a warm cloth. Cleaned me gently between my legs, careful with the tenderness there. Then himself.
When he slid back into bed, he pulled the sheets over us. Tucked me against him like I belonged there.
“Sleep,” he said. Not a suggestion.
I wanted to argue wanted to ask what this was, what tomorrow looked like but exhaustion crashed over me like a wave.
My eyelids drooped.
Just before I slipped under, I whispered, “Thank you.”
His arm tightened around me.
“Sleep, Lila.”
I did.
But when morning came gray light filtering through the rain-streaked windows I woke alone.
The bed was cold on his side.
Panic clawed up my throat.
His clothes were gone. No note. No number.
Just the faint scent of him on the sheets, the delicious ache between my legs, and the crushing realization that last night might have been exactly what I’d asked for
A beautiful, filthy mistake.
I sat up, hugging my knees, staring at the empty space where he’d been.
And for the first time since walking in on Ethan and Mia, I didn’t feel broken.
I felt… awake.
But also terrified.
Because I had no idea who Lucian Kane really was.
Or how to find him again.
**Chapter 65: No Safe Place**The note in Sophia’s small, trembling hand felt like a live grenade.*“Sleep tight, little princess. Daddy can’t protect you forever. Choose which child we take next.”* A photo of Sophia sleeping peacefully in her bed, taken from inside her room, was clipped to it. The handwriting was neat. Clinical. Cruel.I held my daughter against my chest, rocking her as she cried. Lucian stood like a statue of rage, the note crushed in his fist. His freshly bandaged wounds and the lingering effects of the poison didn’t matter. The predator was fully awake.“No one touches my children,” he snarled to the head of security standing rigidly nearby. “I want every guard reassigned, every camera angle reviewed, and Thomas Reilly brought to me in chains within the hour. Find the breach.”Sophia’s sobs eventually quieted into hiccups. I kissed her dark hair, my free hand resting protectively over my lower abdomen where
**Chapter 64: New Life Amid Chaos**The estate felt like a fortress under siege. Every hallway had extra guards. Every window was locked and monitored. But inside our master bedroom, after the doctors had finally left and the children were asleep, it was just Lucian and me.I sat on the edge of our massive bed, staring at the small white stick in my trembling hands. Two pink lines. Clear. Undeniable.Pregnant.Again.After the devastating miscarriage months ago, after the fear and the grief that had nearly broken us, here was new life—tiny, fragile, fighting inside me while the world tried to tear our family apart.Lucian emerged from the bathroom, freshly showered, wearing only black sweatpants that hung low on his hips. The bandages on his side and shoulder stood out starkly against his skin. His steel-gray eyes locked on me immediately, reading the tears on my cheeks and the test in my hands in a single heartbeat.“Li
**Chapter 63: Ambush**The world was a blur of shattered glass, gunfire, and Lucian’s solid body shielding mine in the wreckage.My ears rang violently as Lucian dragged me from the mangled SUV, his arm like a steel vice around my waist. Fresh blood trickled from the cut on his forehead, mixing with the sweat of exertion and lingering poison recovery. He shouldn’t have been moving like this. He should have been in bed, healing. Instead, he was roaring orders like the ruthless king he was.“Stay low!” he barked, firing two precise shots into the darkness. A masked assailant dropped behind a concrete pillar.Bella was already in motion, dragging Chuck behind cover while returning fire with deadly accuracy. “They’ve got us pinned! Extraction ETA ninety seconds!”Alexander and Maya had been in the rear SUV. I spotted them scrambling from their damaged vehicle, Alexander half-carrying Maya whose face was pale with terror. My heart clenched. Th
**Chapter 62: The Enemy’s Son** The midnight meeting felt like stepping into another trap disguised as hope. Our convoy moved silently through the shadowed back roads south of Miami, three armored SUVs with heavily vetted teams. I sat pressed against Lucian in the middle vehicle, his arm locked around my shoulders in that possessive way that had only intensified since Ryan’s visit and the poison scare. His body was still recovering, but the fire in him burned hotter than ever. “You stay right beside me the entire time,” he murmured against my temple, voice low and commanding. “No sudden movements. If anything feels off, we abort.” “I know,” I whispered, squeezing his thigh. Even after our passionate encounter earlier, tension radiated from him. The jealousy toward Ryan, the fear of losing me, and now this risky alliance with Derek’s son—it was all piling on the man who hated losing control. Bella rode in the
**Chapter 61: Old Friend, New Doubts**The weight of Ryan’s words settled over the medical suite like a shroud. *Damian wants her taken alive. He plans to make you watch while he breaks her.* My stomach churned. Lucian’s grip on my hand became iron, his recovering body radiating pure, lethal fury despite the lingering weakness from the poison.Ryan stood awkwardly near the door, hands in his pockets, looking every bit the concerned friend who had inserted himself back into our chaotic lives. His eyes flicked to me with genuine worry—the same steady gaze that had once comforted me during my darkest days with Ethan and Mira. But today, that gaze only seemed to pour gasoline on Lucian’s fire.“You’re sure about this?” Lucian’s voice was dangerously low, each word sharpened like a blade. He tried to sit up straighter, wincing as the movement pulled at his stitches.Ryan nodded. “I’ve been running independent surveillance for weeks. Quietly. I didn’t w
Chapter 60: Buried Truths The medical suite had become a battlefield. Alarms blared in a deafening symphony as Dr. Harlan and two nurses fought to stabilize Lucian. I stood frozen at the side of the bed, clutching his burning hand, my own heart hammering in terror. Bella remained on the opposite side, her face a mask of controlled panic—the same expression Lucian wore when facing down enemies. “Push the epinephrine,” Dr. Harlan ordered sharply. “We’re losing him!” “No!” The word tore from my throat. I leaned over Lucian, pressing my forehead to his. “You fight, damn you. You do not get to leave us now. Not when your daughter finally has the chance to know the truth.” His body convulsed once more, then went terrifyingly still. For one heart-stopping second, the monitors flatlined before the doctor shocked him back. The steady beep returned—weak, but there. Then the door burst open. Bella’s conta
