Chapter 104

Having to watch that man, Mr Rodhes, testifying about Hana, almost sent me into a rage. When he went on and on about how he and his wife had opened their home to her and how she had betrayed them and stolen an heirloom clock, I wanted to shout. Something was off. That was not who Hana was and as I saw Wictor barely holding it together, I knew I was right. As he was excused and Hana walked in, I could see something was different with her as well. She put on a brave face, but I knew her well enough to see past it. I could see the pain she tried to hide. When she told her story I had a single mission. I would find Mr Rodhes and I would make sure he never used up any more oxygen. I planned on leaving as soon as Hana was off the stands, and I knew she wouldn’t have to endure it any longer. I was planning my approach as Hana walked to the door. Something about her made me change my mind. She looked confident, like she had done the previous times she had testified, but there was also something broken about her. I stood up and followed her as soon as my brain had put the puzzle pieces together. I saw her walk towards the ladies’ restroom. I didn’t think about it, I just followed. Hana was standing by the counter, her head down. But she looked up and our eyes met in the mirror. She spun around, and I covered the distance between us and pulled her into a hug. My body screamed to me how right this was. How perfect Hana felt in my arms and how fucking much I had missed her. She had wrapped her arms around my waist, grabbing hold of my jacket with her hands in a desperate way. I just held her pressed against me. I heard the door open and just like Hana, I looked into the mirror to see who it was. Wictor stood in the doorway. He stared at me with a not too happy expression. I saw his eyes shift to Hana. He then met my eyes in the mirror and gave a curt nod before shutting the door.

“You shouldn’t be here,” Hana mumbled against my chest. I felt a desperation bubble inside me as she rejected me.

“I know, sweetness. I’m just making sure you are okay and then I will leave you alone,” I told her. She made a sound halfway between a sniffle and a giggle.

“No, not like that. You shouldn’t be here, it’s the ladies’ room,” she clarified. Relief washed over me as I understood what she meant and I chuckled.

“It’s an emergency. The other ladies can use the restroom down the hall,” I said as I kept her secure to me.

“I’m sorry that I never told you all of that,” she said. I could hear she had stopped crying, but she didn’t move or indicate that she wanted me to let her go.

“No, Hana. We talked about this. You said things might come up, and I told you I didn’t care, I still don’t. Well, I might need to kill someone, but besides that.” I felt her grip tighten around me.

“Don’t do something stupid that gets you locked away,” she said.

“I won’t,” I promised. I had no intention of getting caught. She looked up at me and I gave her a sad smile. Her amazing baby blue eyes searched mine for a moment, and then she nodded. I was caught in her gaze. I could still feel my body humming with the satisfaction of having her close again. I used my thumb to wipe away her tears, and she leaned into the touch. Then I kissed her. I knew I shouldn’t, but I needed to kiss her. She kissed me back, and the kiss turned from sweet to steamy in a second. I backed her up against the counter and had lifted her up to sit on it before I got my senses in order. I took half a step back. “I’m sorry,” I said.

“No. Please don’t stop,” she told me. “I need you. You make me feel safe.” The look she was giving me was part passion, part need for something else. I was a goner the moment she asked me not to stop. I stepped up to her again and kissed her. Her parted legs hooked on my legs and tried to draw me closer. My hands found their way under Hana’s blouse and the feeling of her naked skin against them felt familiar and I enjoyed every second of it. I trailed kisses down her neck and felt her unbutton my shirt. Her hands on my chest felt like coming home. The way she dragged her nails over my skin drove me mad. I was grateful Hana had chosen to wear a skirt.

“I would love to drag this out, but you are driving me insane and I don’t know for how long we will be alone,” I whispered to her. She kissed me and unzipped my pants. When her hand closed around my cock I groaned and for a moment I thought I would lose control and spill all over her hand. I held back and caressed my hand under her skirt. Her panties were soaked and I pulled them to the side and circled her clit. She moaned into my mouth as we kissed and she moved against my hand. We stopped kissing and just leaned our foreheads against each other as we enjoyed the moment.

“Hunter, please,” she moaned.

“You are as breathtaking as ever,” I told her as she guided me inside her. “Fuck, sweetness,” I groaned as I sank into her completely. I moved, rocking against her.

“Hunter,” Hana sighed, and her head fell back. I placed kisses all along her throat and back up again. I wished I could strip her naked and feel every inch of her skin against mine. But we were in a public place without a lock on the door. I let my hand glide down between us and found her clit. Hana wrapped her arms around me and leaned her head on my shoulder. She moved against me and our bodies synced up as we moved.

“Come for me, sweetness. I need to feel that fantastic pussy milking my cock,” I whispered in her ear.

“Hunter,” she whined and she buried her face in my neck to keep from crying out as she came.

“Fuck,” I groaned as she pulled me with her into bliss. It took a moment for us to stop panting. I didn’t want to let go of her, but I knew I didn’t have a choice. I straightened up my stance and cupped Hana’s face with my hands and placed a sweet kiss on her lips. “Are you okay?” I asked.

“I am. Thank you. And I’m sorry that I took advantage of you,” she said with a slight blush. I smiled at her.

“You did not take advantage of me, sweetness. Anytime, I’m just a phone call away,” I told her as we both did our best to straighten up. She laughed.

“I’m not going to use you for booty calls, Hunter,” she told me. I laughed as well. “Anything, Hana. Bootie call, someone to talk to, a shoulder to lean on, I’m just a call away.”

“Thank you, Hunter.” There was a pause. I wanted to think that this changed things. But it didn’t. She still wanted a family and I couldn’t give it to her. “This doesn’t change anything,” she said as a mirror of my own thoughts.

“No, it doesn’t,” I agreed. I took a step back and helped her down. She smiled at me and gave me a kiss.

“I love you,” she told me.

“I love you too,” I said.

“I should go. I’ll see you around, Hunter. Take care of yourself.”

“You too Hana.” I watched her leave and I leaned back against the counter and closed my eyes for a moment to collect myself. The door opened and I heard someone clear their throat. I opened my eyes and saw a middle aged woman staring at me with a pointed look. I realised where I was and mumbled an excuse and hurried to leave. I had no regrets. Now I needed to go home and freshen up and then talk to Jason. We had two people we needed to pay a visit to.
