In one swift movement
, he is unbuckling his pants and pounding his thick long hardness inside of me. Over and over, he moves in and out of me as my back slides up and down his desk. It hurts like shit to have the hard desk against my back, but right now, I only want more of him, and I don’t care about anything else. As if he senses my discomfort, he lifts me up and carries me over to the dark sofa next to the wall. I take him by surprise, dropping down to my knees. I want to do something for him, something that I have never done before.

Damn
, I hope I can do this without him laughing at my attempt.

I grab his sizable length a
nd begin stroking him. His confused eyes now turn dark and lustful. I keep my eyes locked on his and I slowly lick him from the base up to the tip of his long thick shaft. He hisses between his teeth and grips a handful of my hair. With his hardness in my hand, I gather my courage and wrap my mouth around him. I can taste my juices that linger on his delicious cock and I instinctively begin sucking.

“
FUCK… HOLY FUCKING HELL, BABY!” he shouts as I continue working my hand and mouth over him. It thrills me to see him come undone like this. I want to be able to do this for him. To have him give me the control that he so desperately seems to need. I stare back up at him through my eyelashes and take in the beautiful sight of him in.

“Oh
, baby, I’m going to come… FUCK!” he roars as he tugs on my long waves. Bracing myself for what comes next, I feel the warm salty stream slide down my throat, and I eagerly swallow it down. I find his taste erotic, and instantly, I want more.

I don’t recognize this girl that he has awoken inside me.

He staggers back and looks down at me kneeling on the office floor.
Throwing a plush pillow down from the couch, he kneels beside me and begins to crawl over me. With one quick movement, he is between my legs, and I see that he is still hard.

He gently slides into me
, and I gasp when I feel all of him. I grip his silk tie to urge him to me, and he crashes his lips to mine. He is tender and slow as he pumps in and out of me. My climax overtakes me, and I hold on to him grinding my hips. He follows me with his own release and strokes my back as we catch our breath.

He helps me
redress and sits me in his lap. I lace my fingers through his and lay my head in the crevice of his neck. I breathe in his delicious flavor and smile against his sweaty skin.

“I love you
, Sebastian!” I whisper against his skin, and he rewards me with that killer epic smile of his.

“Not as much as
I love you, baby,” he teases me by using my words from the night before. I laugh in his arms, and we spend the rest of the day locked up in his office, away from the world outside. Oh, and we did manage to get some work done… okay… well, maybe only a tiny bit. 

Friday is here before I know it
, and I am on pins and needles. I fully admit that I am terrified at first, but Sebastian’s presence helps to settle my nerves and the presentation goes exactly as planned. Mr. Yung seems to love every one of my ideas and quickly gives his approval for the work to begin in LA. Sebastian is beyond ecstatic at Yung’s enthusiasm and takes my sister and me out to celebrate later that night.

Sophie has
known all along that I have feelings for him and is absolutely thrilled that we are finally together. She doesn’t even seem to mind that he slept over that night. Right now, things are absolutely perfect.

Maybe they
are just little too perfect.

Trevor

I turn up my beer and look around at the smoke-filled bar that I haven’t seen in over five years. No one seems to recognize me with my full beard and cowboy hat. They will never believe that I am back here anyway, especially not after what happened.

I don’t care what anyone thinks or says
. That fucking cock tease niece of mine deserved it!

I look at the blonde in the corner a
nd admire how hot her ass looks in the cutoff shorts she is wearing. I blink away my thoughts. I am here for one purpose and one purpose only. That bitch niece of mine is trying to make my life hell. Her fucking rich boyfriend has been hot on my trail, and luckily, I’ve managed to stay at least one-step ahead of him. I’ve got more friends than they give me credit for. They give me the heads up in enough time to make a run to the next city. But I am damn tired of running and I ain’t running anymore.

It’s time to finish what I started
. And this time, ain’t nothing or no one going to stop me. Yes, now I think I will have some real fun with my hot little niece. And when I am done playing, I will make damn sure he won’t want her ever again.

Skylar

I leave the ballet studio and bid my friend goodbye. Now that my evenings are free, I love being able to come and help the advanced students with their choreography a couple nights a week. It feels so good to dance again in front of people. Sebastian usually sneaks into the studio every chance he gets to watch me. He always looks at me with such pride in his eyes at the end of each and every one of my dances. Dancing makes me feel like I am getting small bits of myself back and teaching them once again how to live.

I love how I feel alive again
. He has given so much of myself back to me.

Time seems to fly by
, and before you know it, I have completed my internship program successfully. The time we have spent together lately has been so remarkable, and I feel so blessed to finally have my life back to some sort of normal. With both my sister’s graduation and mine happening this weekend, it has been a crazy and emotional week.

Friday night Sebastian and I watch my sister walk across the stage in her cap and gown. The whole time
he tightly holds my hand as I let the tears flow down my proud face. It is times like this that I wish my parents were still here. Moments like this that it hurts so much for them to miss. I smile up to the sky, and know they are beaming down with pride right now.

Sophie ha
s been awarded a full soccer scholarship to Boston University. Even though she doesn’t officially start classes until late August, she will start soccer camp in just a week. I don’t know if I am prepared to be away from her that soon.

Saturday afternoon Sebastian, Nik,
Sara, and Sophie cheered for Kylie and I as we both accepted our diplomas. I am beyond moved to see that Sara has come today to see me graduate. Sebastian takes us all out for dinner downtown to celebrate, and as I look around at all the people at our table, my heart warms. Each of these people makes up such an important part of my life. They are truly my family now, in every sense of the word.

Unfortunately, Sebastian has
to fly out early the next morning on business. He doesn’t want to wake me when he leaves so we decide that I will just hang with my sister for the rest of the evening. I will miss being in his arms tonight, but I am looking forward to spending some girl time with Sophie.

When we arrive bac
k home, a small brown UPS box is sitting at my front door.

“I bet it’s another gif
t from your man,” Sophie teases me. I smile and play with the diamond earrings I’m wearing that Sebastian gave me earlier today.

“And what if it’s from your man
?” I tease back at her.

“From Rylan? Pshh…
Nah, he’s too cheap,” she says and we both laugh.

I pick the box
up off the porch and notice my name on the package.

“It doesn’t have a return address,” I tell my sister.
She shrugs her shoulders and opens the front door.

“Open it
!” She says excitedly.

I pull the brown box open and pull out the smaller package that
is inside. I slip the ribbon off the silver box and slowly open the lid. I pull the white tissue paper back, and there it is… a large shard of broken glass. Its tip is stained red, and droplets of blood tinge the white tissue around it. I know without a doubt who the package is from. Terror fills me and I slam the box shut.

I can’t let her see this!

“Whoa, sis, talk about NOT liking something. How bad can it be? Did someone send you a toaster or something,” she laughs, and I force a smile.

“No.
.. Um… it’s from Sebastian... it’s private. I’ll just put it away,” I stutter.

“Oh
, don’t be embarrassed, sis! It’s not as if I don’t know you two have done the deed. You both are kind of loud, you know.”

I frown at her
, and she holds her sides while laughing hysterically.

“I’m heading upstairs to change out of these shoes.
Want to watch a movie?” she asks me, but I barely register her question because my mind is still panicking over that package.

“Yeah, um…
sure, that sounds great,” I reply. Nervously, I double bolt the doors and shut all the blinds. I sit on the couch and pull my knees up to my chest. Slowly, I begin rocking back and forth trying to reassure myself that my worst nightmare isn’t back.

He’s not here
… he just wanted to scare you… He’s not here… he can’t hurt you.

Sebastian

I missed her like crazy while I was out of town. I had only been gone for a day and a half, but the homecoming with her is unbelievable. Immediately up on my return I notice that my beautiful girl has grown more and more distant and I begin to become concerned. She isn’t sleeping well at all, and her nightmares only seem to be getting worse. She now screams out Trevor’s name almost every night, and I don’t know why. I try to be helpful and suggest that she talk to me about her dreams, but she keeps insisting that she is fine. She believes that I think her dreams are of the night of the accident, and I don’t let her think otherwise. I want her to tell me herself when she feels like she can, but I am terrified at the changes I’ve noticed in her.

I am still
looking for the motherfucker and when I find him, make no mistake about it, he is dead. No one will ever miss the son of a bitch, trust me. I hate what hell she still suffers because of him. The sick bastard better stay the fuck away from her, that’s all I care about. Now, if only there was some way to keep him out of her dreams.

The only time sh
e seems relaxed is when I hold her in my arms. That is where she is right now and where I want her always. I kiss her lips gently and then make my way down her bare chest. I love it when she stays the night at my place. I want her to move in with me, but she insists she can’t until Sophie leaves for college soccer training in another week. I am counting the days until she is my bed every night.

I
am supposed to head out early this morning for a meeting, but right now I have a much more pressing matter and it’s right between these fucking gloriously firm thighs of hers. She grins with her eyes closed as I lick down her flat stomach and make my way further down. My beautiful goddess arches her back and tugs the ends of my hair as I lick her sweet juices from her folds. I swear I know I’ve said it before, but I honestly will never be able to get enough of this girl.

Gently
, I ease myself into her. This morning, I can’t explain it, but I just need to be with her. Over and over, I slide myself in and out of her magnificent warm opening. Each gentle thrust is pulling her closer to the edge. When she finally grips the sheets beside me and screams, I come violently. Breathlessly, I wrap my arms around her and bury my face against her soft waves.

I
don’t really have to go into work today, do I?

Skylar stay
s on working at Thorne Enterprises even after her internship ends. She becomes the lead designer over the Yung’s L.A. project and I am beyond proud of how well she is handling the job. It is difficult as fucking shit to keep my hands off her when she is at the office. Just knowing she is a short walk from my office door leaves me making any and every excuse for her to visit my office. And when she is there, I try my damnedest to make sure that she doesn’t think about work, or anything else for that matter. Yes, I’ll admit it… she visits my office quite frequently.

Let’s just say
that there is definitely something to be said about soundproof walls.
