Read Incineration (Heart of Stone) Online
Authors: D H Sidebottom
We said our goodbyes and I left, riding the ten minute
elevator journey and walking out to the car park.
As soon as I exited the building, I took a quick scan of my
surroundings but didn’t notice anything and walked to my car. I was just
placing my things in my boot when a hand landed on my shoulder, I jumped wildly
and spun round to see a man stood with his hands up “Sorry Darling” he smiled
but there was something in his eyes that caught my attention and I quickly
perused the car park.
He looked very familiar but I couldn’t place him and I
racked my brain to think where.
Luckily it was the start to summer and there was plenty of daylight
and I saw Olivia and Nate stood talking to the big doorman.
I looked back at the man “Can I help you?” my voice wavered
a little but I managed to sound near normal. He glanced around in the direction
of the group stood at the doors and frowned “Erm…I was just wondering if you
knew where I could find a pub called the late lounge” I gave him a quizzical
look “Erm yeah, it’s right across the road. I’m amazed you missed it” I
narrowed my eyes on him and he took another glance towards Olivia and Nate, pursing
his lips when he saw Nate watching us.
“Everything okay Ava?” Nate shouted and took a step towards
us. I stood staring at the man to see if he was going to back off before I
signalled an okay, he stood still watching Nate approach, now flanked by ‘The
big Fella’.
He backed off and held his hands up again “Thanks for your
help” he murmured and turned abruptly to Nate “Calm down mate, just asking for
directions” he near growled and Nate narrowed his eyes on him and then glanced
at me for acknowledgement. I nodded stiffly but Nate cocked his head “Ava?” he
probed and I cleared my throat “Erm yes, he was just looking for the late
lounge” I answered hoping Nate would understand my puzzlement which by the
looks of his face, he did. He regarded the man “It’s just across the road, you
can’t miss it” he said slowly.
The man nodded rigidly and stalked off, I watched him
retreat then let out a breath “Ava, is everything okay?” Olivia asked and I
smiled warily “Erm yeah, I’ve just had a bit of weird stuff going on and he
gave me the creeps” I laughed to hide my embarrassment and Olivia narrowed her
eyes but touched my arm “I know all about weird shit” she laughed bitterly
“believe me but if you wanna talk about it” she shrugged and I smiled at her
“Thank you, it’s fine though, I’m just a little on edge” she smiled again and
nodded “Go on, get yourself home and we’ll wait until you’ve gone. Just to make
sure you are okay” she squeezed my arm and I gave her a relieved smile “Thanks”
I stopped and turned to Nate “Erm, how well do you know
Mason?” I asked and he gave me a wry smile “Don’t worry, I won’t tell him. I’ve
heard how possessive he is of you” he winked and I grinned “Thank you”.
I climbed in my car and pulled out of the car park, driving
faster than was necessary until I reached Mason’s road and then slowed down.
The last thing I needed was him to see me speeding , I pulled up and as I
climbed from my car I noticed a black Ferrari slip by.
WHAT THE HELL!!
I
hadn’t seen him all the way home and I had been constantly checking my rear view.
Mason opened the front door and grinned at me but his smile
dropped when he saw me frowning “What’s wrong Baby, aren’t you pleased to see
me?” he laughed nervously and I shook my head to clear it and smiled happily at
him “Hey” I said softly and reached up for a kiss but he pulled me into him and
deepened the kiss, showing me just how much he had missed me.
He pulled back and regarded me “You’re okay though?” he probed
and I nodded “Sorry, still feeling a bit off” I lied and he simply nodded as I
plonked myself onto a kitchen stool and sighed. “Busy day?” he asked and
appeared behind me, rubbing at my shoulders “Oh Wow, that’s good” I breathed
and he leant forward, kissing my neck and nibbling my ear. I grumbled and
pulled away “Later” I grumbled.
He narrowed his eyes on me “Ava, what’s wrong” but I glared
at him “For god’s sake Mason, nothing’s wrong, I’m just tired” I sighed and
closed my eyes, rubbing at my temples. I leant back and cupped his face “I’m
sorry” I smiled guiltily and he frowned “Talk to me Ava. I can’t help if you
won’t talk to me” I sighed deeply and shook my head “I’m just tired, that’s
all” I looked away but he didn’t probe any more, just continued to rub my
shoulders until he felt me relax. “You still wanna go out?” he asked and I
nodded, determined to make the effort for him. He grinned and kissed my
forehead “Coffee?” he asked and I grinned. “I love you” I declared and he
turned back to me, cocking his head but grinning “I love you too Baby” and I
knew he did, but I still wasn’t sure how much to disclose to him about today’s
events. “I’m just nipping to the loo” I told him and scurried off, hiding my
phone in my pocket while his back was turned as he made the coffee.
Shutting the bathroom door behind me I phoned Sam “Hey” he
said when he answered “Hi Sam, I was just wondering if you managed to find
anything out?” I asked quietly “I logged into NSC security surveillance recordings
but it only shows the car park not the road so I wasn’t able to get a picture
of him” he said and I sighed then another thought occurred “Sam…” he hesitated
at my tone “What?” he asked slowly “Well, I was approached by a guy in the car
park as I was leaving. He said he was just asking for directions but…” I bit my
lip when I knew what was coming “Ava?...” he encouraged “Well, there was just
something about him and when my boss walked over, he kind of…I dunno, he kind
of seemed a bit weird, like he was mad we weren’t alone” I heard Sam inhale
“Ava, you know I’ve got to tell Mason about this, there’s too many incidents
even if they seem innocent” I sighed but understood “I know but let me tell
him” I urged and he sighed again “You promise me Ava?” I nibbled nervously on
my finger at the thought of telling Mason “Yes” I promise I closed my eyes and
rubbed at my temples “Okay, but I mean it, if he doesn’t mention it to me by
tomorrow night then I’m gonna presume you haven’t told him” he said sternly and
I rolled my eyes “I promise” I repeated and ended the call.
Sighing heavily I placed my forehead on the wall, closing my
eyes and took a few deep breaths to steel myself before I turned and viewed
Mason leaning on the door frame with his arms crossed against his chest and a
thunderous expression on his face.
SHIT!!!
I smiled apprehensively “Hi” I cowered and gulped but he
remained still, his lips a tight line and a blaze in his eyes “I Erm…I need to
talk to you” I said slowly, nibbling on my finger as he glared at me “Really?”
he said stiffly as he pursed his lips “Is that because I overheard or because
you want to?” he asked, raising his eyebrows and I swallowed heavily “You must
have heard me say to Sam that I would tell you” I winced and he pushed off the
doorframe and slowly walked towards me.
I took a step backwards and felt the wall behind me, bracing
myself against it as he continued to stalk me. Coming up really close he
pressed his hands on the wall, either side of my face and tilted his head “What
I can’t understand Ava, is why you have spoken to Sam before you even
contemplated telling me?”
Oh Shit!! Mr Jealous was out to play
.
Faking a confident smile, I squared my shoulders and took
him straight on “Mason, don’t be silly. It’s not like what you’re thinking” I
pushed at him but he wouldn’t budge “Let me out Mason” I demanded but he just
stood framing me with his eyes narrowed on me.
“Well?” he asked slowly, like he was talking to a child
“Mason, I don’t like it when you’re like this” I said sharply but he pursed his
lips again and took a deep breath “Well?” he repeated and my hackles rose
“Maybe if you would let me out we can talk” I snapped.
He traced my chin with his finger and my heart flinched, I
closed my eyes and took a deep breath “Are you frightened of me Ava?” he asked
quietly, too quietly.
Scoffing, I opened my eyes and glared at him “Well you’re
doing a damn good job of trying to frighten me” I retorted, he nodded once and
pushed away from me, then took a paper bag off the vanity and handed it me “I
just came up to give you this, I didn’t mean to interrupt your
private
conversation” he snarled and disappeared out of the door.
Sighing heavily I opened the bag and wasn’t surprised to see
a pregnancy test in it, but my nerves were shot today and I had no intentions
of adding to them. I flung the bag on the vanity and plopped down on the chair
in the corner of the bathroom.
Did I really want to have a baby with Mason when I wasn’t
sure I could cope with his constant mood swings and possessiveness? I knew he
loved and adored me but was he willing to share me with a baby that would constantly
be craving my attention? Sometimes it felt like I was nursing a child with
Mason, his never ending temper tantrums and need for my exclusive attention.
I stood and turned on the bath taps, needing the comfort of
the hot water and the need to relax my tight muscles.
Standing in front of the full length mirror I stripped off
my clothes and studied my figure.
Tilting my head as I perused myself, wondering what I would
like with a large swollen belly and placing my hand over the flatness of it, I
spread my fingers. “Anybody in there?” I whispered.
Laughing at myself when I realised what I was doing I turned
away and slid into the bath, sighing and resting my head on the edge of the tub
but as I closed my eyes I was brought back to the man in the car park.
There had seemed something familiar about him but I couldn’t
put my finger on it and I searched my memories again, frowning deeply.
I twisted the hot tap with my toes and added another inch of
hot water, my body relaxing some more at the heat. My eyes were heavy and my
limbs felt weighty as I continued to scan my mind for the man in the car park,
probing every corner but still not succeeding in finding him anywhere but there
was definitely something about him.
My blood felt hot and I was aroused as my eyes refused to open
to the light of the bathroom and my body screamed against rousing from a deep
sleep.
The water felt cold against the hotness between my legs and
the bubbles were tickling my pert nipples, I thought it was the bubbles until I
opened my eyes and saw Masons mouth at my breast, flicking his tongue over and
around the hard buds. I moaned and slid my bottom in the bath, trying to get
some friction on my sex as he raised his eyes and grinned at me, sucking
harshly on my nipple and letting it go with a pop.
“Hi” he gave me a lazy grin as he slid his hand under the
water and stroked my thigh. “Hi” I rasped and closed my eyes as his fingers
found my pussy and stroked up my groove “Mmmm” I breathed and he groaned when
he slid a finger in me “You’re so wet for me Ava” he said as I lifted my hips
towards him, eager for release “More” I whispered and his mouth found mine as
he slipped another finger in, stroking the front wall and hitting my G-Spot
“Yes!” I hissed and ground onto his knuckles “That’s it Baby, ride my fingers”
he breathed in my ear as his thumb rubbed my clit. I moaned loudly and flung my
head back as his teeth grazed my nipple and his fingers worked feverishly.
“Mason, I need to come. Make me come” I demanded and he
curled his fingers again and rubbed my clit harder as his teeth sunk into the
soft flesh of my breast.
My orgasm started in my toes and rapidly shot through the
rest of my body as I arched my back against it and Mason took my lips in a
hungry kiss.
When my climax had died down he stood, he stripped and
climbed in the bath, turning me around so I was on my stomach he pushed up my
knees and entered me slowly. “God, you feel amazing” he rasped as he thrust
slowly but deeply.
I clung on to the bath and he grabbed my hips to stop me
from slipping as he increased his pace. “Stand up Ava” he ordered as he slid
out and stood up. I did as he asked and he climbed out of the bath and helped
me out, lifted me and sat me on the vanity. He opened my thighs and stood
between them and entered me again, this time more brutally as I slipped my
hands around and grabbed his arse, pulling him closer and deeper and filling me
to the hilt “YES!” he growled as he pumped into me with fury “You feel so good
Ava” he breathed in my ear as he grazed my neck and his hands slid under my
backside, lifting me slightly “You’re mine Ava. Just mine”.
I placed my hands on the vanity behind me and he placed my
legs over his shoulders and I lifted my hips so he could get a better angle and
as I did I felt his cock hit my womb and stroke my soft spot again “Yes Mason,
Fuck yes! That feels so good” I cried.
He growled and slammed into me “Jesus Ava; I can feel every
inch of you. Can you feel me fill you Baby?” he rasped and his words made me
peak and I screamed as I climaxed around him. He grabbed my hair from the back
of my head, pulling my head back as he bit my neck “Oh God, I’m gonna come so
hard Ava” he roared and reared back as he came inside me, hitting my cervix
with his warm semen and making me orgasm again.
“Christ” he groaned as sweat dripped down his back and he
panted harshly “You’re so hot Ava, you always make me come so hard” I cupped
his face and kissed him softly
“I’m sorry I held back from you Mason but I was worried
about your reaction to what I need to tell you” I apologised and he nodded “I’m
sorry I scare you Ava but I just can’t seem to control my emotions with you. I
love you deeply but I’m so frightened of losing you” he sighed and pulled out
of me. “I know but you are gonna have to learn to trust me Mason. You seem
jealous of everybody but I promise…” I paused as I took his hand and tilted his
face towards me “I promise I will never hurt you. I love you too much and you
make me feel whole. I don’t need anybody else” I revealed and he stroked my
cheek with the back of his knuckles “Get dressed and we’ll talk” he smiled
softly and kissed me as he walked into the bedroom.
