RIVEN BLACKWOOD POV
I watched Ksar limp away, then turned to face Hazel.
"You shouldn't have taken that risk. I told you I was going to handle it," I got out, the rhythm of my heart still out of beat.
Hazel stared at me from beneath her lashes. "I'm sorry," she muttered, then raised her head, her glazy eyes crashing with mine.
It was disarming. My mouth dried and I swallowed, getting lost in them.
It had driven me insane watching that filthy bastard touch her and put a gun to her head. For a split second, I'd almost put a bullet into his head when I had him in my range, but then Hazel had turned the tables in a move that stole the breath right out of my lungs.
I had watched her through my scope, my heart pounding in my chest as she smashed his wrist and took the gun from him. She'd taken charge like the boss she was, and I couldn't help but be proud of her, even though the fear that it could have ended badly lingered like a bad taste in my mouth.
Hazel stepped closer, her hands splaying on my chest as we stood face to face. "I know you're pissed because I put myself in harm's way, but I only did it because I trusted you," she said, her eyes locking onto mine. "I knew you were right there, watching me. I knew you weren't going to let anything bad happen to me."
Blood swam to the surface of my skin, my heart swelling to the point of combustion at her words.
I reached for her, my knuckles grazing her cheek. "You're damn right I won't. I'm so proud of you, Hazel. It's just that seeing that gun pressed against your head drove me crazy."
She grabbed my arm, went on tiptoes, and pressed a kiss to my lips. "I love you, Riven."
A ripple of desire washed over me. "Fuck, what the hell have you done to me, Hazel?" I muttered and yanked her in, kissing her, hard and unrelenting, attacking her lips like I owned them.
Her surprised gasp shot straight to my dick, driving me insane. I shoved my arms beneath her shoulders, my touch gentle yet possessive as I held her body against mine.
"Let me in, baby," I panted, my lips moving against hers "I want to taste you."
She parted her lips, keening as I lapped at the inside of her mouth, devouring every last breath and moan I pulled from her as my nails dug into her thigh.
My blood heated, my head spinning from the feel of her body against mine and the scent of her arousal.
Growling, I yanked her closer, raising her thigh to wrap around my waist.
Her heat seeped into my skin, driving me insane.
"Riven!" she gasped, crying out my name as I moved against her, my hardness rubbing against her center from how close we were welded together.
"Yes!" I hissed against her lips, my lust for her growing.
Her fingers ran through my hair, her nails digging into my scalp. I dragged in a breath, loving how eager her lips were against mine like she was just as desperate.
My lungs burned and we parted to drag in air, our eyes burning with desire as we stared at each other. Then she threw her head back, the arch of her neck inviting.
My hands fisted in her hair, my mouth trailing kisses down her jawline, my hands tightening on her hips as her body rubbed against mine.
"Fuck!" She cussed, a low moan escaping her parted lips.
Letting go of her hips, I moved my hand between us, my fingers pushing away her panties and running over her smooth center, her wetness covering my fingers.
I got harder, my teeth clenching. "Such a dirty little girl," I growled against her chin, then slid a finger into her heat, then another.
She cried out, the sound stoking the flames that burned hot between us.
"Come for me, baby, show me who owns this pussy," I growled, biting her neck, drawing blood.
She jerked against me, whimpering as her hips rocked against my hand, seeking more.
My fingers slid in and out of her, my thumb rubbing over her clit.
She shuddered against me, her mouth dropping open in a silent gasp as her eyes rolled.
"That’s right, baby." I smiled, doing it again. More forcefully.
I added a third finger.
"Fuck!" she gasped, her hands coming up to my shoulders, her nails sinking into my skin. "Oh, fuck;" she cried out as I increased my thrust, hitting deep as I rubbed her clit.
Her body suddenly locked up, her eyes rolling back and then she came, brokenly, beautifully.
I wanted to see it happen over and over again.
I continued thrusting my hands into her, riding out the wave of her orgasm until I got every last drop.
Her head dropped against mine, her legs buckling as I pulled my finger out of her.
Inhaling her scent deeply, I held her close, grinning as I watched her try to catch her breath, ignoring my throbbing cock. Once I was sure she was good, I gripped her chin, forcing her to look up at me.
My heart pounded wildly as our gaze locked, her beautiful Hazel eyes swimming with lust. They looked like honey.
I trailed my fingers over the heat left behind on her jaw. "You look so sexy, Hazel," I growled, my gaze dropping to her swollen lips. "You look so sexy all marked up and all mine," I said, then sucked my finger into my mouth, her sweet taste a delightful sensation that left me craving for more.
She blinked, her eyes hazy with lust. "You're so obsessed with me, aren't you?”
I cocked my head, my eyes burrowing into hers. "Yes." I rasped. "I am dangerously obsessed with you, my little rabbit and that won't be changing ever "
She grabbed my face and then pressed her lips to mine. "I think I am starting to get obsessed with you, too," she panted, her lips grazing mine.
I smirked, loving her possessiveness. "You have me for all of eternity, Hazel, just like I have you," I said, then glanced away from her as footsteps registered.
It was Gabriel and the guards.
I pulled her away from their gaze, adjusted her dress, and finger-combed her hair. "I think that took more than a minute... How far do you think he got"
She grabbed my jaw, her dainty fingers against my skin making it tingle.
"With the bullet you put in his thigh, I don't think he got very far," she said, then her eyes darkened. "When you catch him, do me a favor and cut him into pieces," she said, the fire in her eyes stoking the blood lust in my veins. Gosh, I loved her when she got this dark and aggressive.
"Your wish is my command, princess," I said, then leaned in, biting softly on the shell of her ear. "Wait for me right here, baby. We are going to finish what we started," I said and a shudder racked her frame. She drew in a shaky breath, her eyes lingering on mine.
"I'll be back in five minutes." I stepped away from her, grinning as I walked into the woods, my gaze taking in the blood trail Ksar had left.
This was going to be a quick kill. I didn't want to keep my lady waiting.
