Chapter 2
NC-17
Jason's lips crash against Eva's again and she wraps her legs around his waist, making his head swipe against her clit. He swallows her groan as he starts to grind against her.
When he suddenly pulls back, she is shocked, but then she watches him reach into a drawer and grab a condom. Quickly, he put it on and then crawled between her legs again, stopping to lick her clit for a few minutes as she writhed beneath him.
"Jason, I need you now!"
With a smirk, he hovers above her and lines himself up. "Hard or gentle?"
"The harder, the better."
His jaw clenches as he snaps his hips and his dick slides into her wet core. "Fuck," he mutters when he bottoms out.
Evangeline arches her back and digs her heels into his ass. "Move!"
He sucks on a nipple as his body finds a good rhythm, occasionally swiveling his hips. The sounds she is making is almost enough to send him over."
"Harder!"
He pistons unbelievable fast as he strokes against her g-spot, making her shout his name.
"I want to be on top."
Slowing down, he lays against her and flip them over and watches as she starts to move, loving how tight she grips him. Grabbing her hips, he starts to meet her thrusts and when she can't take anymore, she falls forward and starts to bounce just her hips and Jason grips the comforter. When she increases the speed, he groans and then gasps.
"I want to feel you come," she whispers, making him slightly whimper, something he has never done.
She starts to pant as unbelievable pleasure starts to pulsate through her body and then Jason's jaw drops open as he starts to come. "Eva…"
Above him, she tenses and then shatters as she trembles and grips him even tighter as he continues to erupt.
Once she catches her breath, she eases off him and he goes to the bathroom and cleans up before returning and they switch places.
A few minutes later, she returns and he watches her lustfully. She has curves in all the right places.
She snuggles against him.
"You okay?"
"I'm fantastic."
He slightly smiles. "We'll definitely be doing that again."
"You won't get any objections." She pushes up and leans on her elbow. "He'll find me, you know, and he'll probably hurt me if he finds out about you." While it's hard to admit that Lorenzo has a violent side, especially since he has never physically attacked her, she's not stupid and can recognize fear in the eyes of his staff.
The idea of someone battering her makes him seethe. "I'm not worried. Believe it or not, I have a bad reputation."
"I don't want you to get hurt."
"I won't."
She wants to believe him, but she has no reference point of how dangerous he can be.
He turns towards her. "Is there any part of you that wants him back?"
"No. He ruined whatever love I had for him." Those are words she had never thought she'd ever utter but Lorenzo had ripped apart a piece of her soul with his betrayal and she is done.
"Tell me about yourself."
She slightly smiled. "I'm a lawyer."
When he groaned, she playfully shoved him. "Hey! We're not all bad."
"Uh-huh."
She giggled. "I double majored in music and law."
"You have a beautiful voice."
"Thank you."
"I also play the piano."
He is not surprised by her talent. "How did you end up with him?"
She sighed. "I represented him and he asked me out after the trial. Your turn…"
"What you see is what you get."
"I would think that depends on who is looking."
He smirked. "I don't look at everyone the way I look at you."
"I hope not. I think I'd be jealous."
He moved forward and languidly kissed her before continuing. "I was in an accident when I was twenty-one. My drunken brother drove us into a tree and I was in a coma for a while and suffered some brain damage."
She would have never guessed that he had any limitations. "Like what?"
"I don't feel hot and cold as strongly as you do. I process things a little different, meaning I can compartmentalize my emotions and turn them off. I can't read maps and pictures are difficult for me to decipher. Other than that, I'm fine."
"It could have been worse."
"Yeah, I had to learn things like right and wrong all over again. I was angry and hostile and felt like everyone was expecting me to be someone who was dead. It destroyed our family and I pushed them away. They said I'd never feel like most people."
"I think they were wrong. If anything, you might feel things stronger because of your attention to detail. I know what an enforcer does. You have to use all your senses and you're way more in tune with your surroundings and feelings, but unlike us mere mortals, you can turn it off."
"You make it sound like a superpower."
"Trust me, it is. Are you hungry?"
He smiled. "I could eat." Not even hesitating, he leaned over her and grabbed his phone and called in an order. "It will be here in twenty minutes. That gives us just enough time for shower sex."
She laughed. "I might be sore in the morning, but bring it."
IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiI
Lorenzo threw a paperweight against the wall of his office causing a painting to fall and glass to shatter all over the place. "Carlos!"
He threw the door open. "Yes, boss."
"Have you found her?"
"No."
"Could someone have taken her?"
"Maybe, but they probably would have contacted us by now."
None of this made sense. Evangeline isn't the type that would just run off and they got along very well. He loves her as much as he is capable of it and she definitely is in love with him. The only explanation is that someone had taken her to use as leverage, but the more time that passes without word means that she left on her own accord and that is simply unacceptable.
Carlos answered his phone as Lorenzo watched curiously. When the conversation ended, Carlos apprehensively met his boss's gaze. Lorenzo is known for his explosive temper and he wonders how much damage his boss is about to do.
"She drove her car to a hotel. The valet person remembers seeing her. She had a suitcase with her and got into a cab. Her ring was in the ashtray. I'm sorry."
Lorenzo squelched down his anger momentarily. "You're telling me that she snuck out of the house and then disappeared?"
"Yes."
This doesn't make any sense and then he remembered something. "Did you check the surveillance cameras around the warehouse I was in?"
"No."
"Do it and be discreet."
Carlos is getting the picture. For some reason, his boss insists on having other women besides his fiancé. None of his close guards understood the need. Eva is gorgeous and very sexy. If Lorenzo wasn't happy with their love life, she would have been replaced a long time ago. The only thing they could think of is that its power or ego type thing. If she had caught him, then there is no way she would have stuck around on principle. This is going to get really ugly.
"I'll let you know what I find."
Once he was gone, Lorenzo poured a drink. No one leaves him like this. It doesn't matter if she saw anything or not. She'll return to his bed and they will marry because she is the kind of woman who deserves to have his last name. Her class and brains always wowed his business associates and one day, she will carry his child in her womb. He took a swig and the alcohol warmed him thoroughly, helping him to calm his inner beast. While they had argued passionately in the past, he had never shown her his more violent side, but she is about to get a big dose of it, especially if she defies him and refuses to come home.
IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiI
They finished eating and then she took a nap. He laid next to her thinking about what he could do to end this situation before it begins. She had yet to tell him the name of her ex, something that will have to be rectified because they need to prepare and he has to know who he is dealing with.
His phone beeped so he picked it up.
"Nothing comes up under that name, it's a fake."
He texted Johnny back. "I know. Her real name is Evangeline and she is a lawyer."
"I'll do some searches in the area and then fan out. It might take some time."
"I know you have other responsibilities. Just search on your downtime. I don't want to use our computer geeks because then word will probably get back to Sonny."
"Understood." Well, he didn't totally understand why Jason was taking these kinds of chances. It wouldn't be a stretch to consider that she might be FBI or WSB and could take down the organization. Hopefully, Jason instincts are still working because clearly, he is already emotionally attached which could alter his perspective.
"Thanks."
"Later."
Jason finally succumbed to his weariness and slept.
IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiI
The next afternoon, Carlos arrives at the house to give Lorenzo an update.
"Have a seat," Lorenzo said before motioning to one.
"She was at the warehouse and saw you and ran out."
Lorenzo growled. "What the hell was she doing there?"
Carlos averted his gaze. "She was dressed to please you. I think she was trying to surprise you."
Lo got up and started to pace. "I need you to find her. I have to go out of town in two weeks to a big meeting and she needs to be by my side. Do you understand?"
"I will do everything I can. She does not have on any of her GPS devices."
"She's too smart for her own good." In ways, he Is proud of her for having the wits to do this under duress, but for the most part, he just wants to put her in her place and have her back in his bed.
"I'll check airports in the area."
He nodded, effectively dismissing the man. If Eva thinks she can just start over with no repercussions, she is sadly mistaken.
IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiI
Sonny stared at his enforcer who seems to be very distracted. "What the hell is going on with you?"
"Nothing."
"I'll eventually find out and it's not like you to lie."
"It's personal. I'm fine."
Sonny's head tilts as his tries to guess. "Is something wrong with Lila?"
"No."
"Your family?"
"No."
"Did you crash your bike again?"
Jason rolled his eyes. "No."
Leaning forward, Sonny tapped his finger on the desk a few times. "Did you meet someone?"
"Sonny, let it go. I'm not going to tell you anything."
He smirked. "What's her name?"
Jason started to get up but Sonny held up his hands.
"Fine, I'll stop prying, but if it starts to affect the business, you are going to have to confide in someone."
Jason shrugged and then the door flew open.
"What the hell, Sonny? Did you freeze my credit card?" Brenda asked.
Jason groaned. "You can handle this one on your own."
"Some enforcer you are…"
Jason took off and Sonny is left to face his nemesis.
"Well?" Her hands find her hips as she stares him down.
"Brenda, you need to slow down. Why are you shopping all the time?"
"Because my hormones are raging and it's your fault that you knocked me up, so deal with it!"
He grinned. "Baby, you have everything you need from the last five hundred shopping trips."
She pouted. "Sonny, I was embarrassed. Please don't do that okay."
"Okay, but you need to stop this. Milo and the guys are going to paint the nursery and put up some shelves today and then you can focus on how you want everything decorated."
She sat on his lap and he put his hand on her protruding belly.
"Do we have a deal?"
"I guess." She is running out of closet space having bought a lot of clothes for the baby.
"Give me a kiss."
Their lips join reverently until she pulls back for air. "Feed me?"
He chuckled. "Let's go."
IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiI
Jason strode towards Johnny.
"I didn't find anything on her yet.."
"Just keep trying, okay?"
Johnny's brow knitted. "Are you in that deep with her?"
"She's—I don't know if I can put it into words. I just need her to be safe."
"It would help if she'd be more forthcoming."
"She's scared and thinks she's protecting me."
"That's a switch." Usually, it's Jason doing the running and hiding.
"While it's nice and I get where she is coming from, I just have a really bad feeling about this."
"Me too."
IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiI
Jason finished up at the warehouse and then rushed back to the penthouse. He had convinced Eva to give up her room at the Metro Court and stay with him because it's safer. Micah, her guard, was sworn to secrecy and he just hoped that Brenda didn't get wind of it and try to get inside.
"Hey," he said as he shut the door behind him.
Her gaze left his computer and she smiled. "I hope you don't mind that I borrowed it. Why don't you have a password?"
He shrugged. "I don't really use it. My computer geek gave it to me and I told him to take it off because it doesn't leave here and I don't use it for business."
"Just some late night shopping?"
"Sometimes, my sister comes over and uses it for that."
"I see. What is she like?"
"Emily is young and has a lot of energy. She's a resident at the hospital."
"So, you're close?"
"Yes. I'm close to her and my grandmother, Lila."
She closed the laptop and set it on the coffee table. "I wish I could have brought more of my things. I had a packed suitcase in my trunk, so I didn't bother going back to the house. I'll probably never see them again."
"Did you have a law office?"
"Yes."
"Any partners?"
"Just one, who is my best friend."
"Evangeline, can you tell me your ex's name?"
She shook her head and then stood and started to move around the room. "I—I don't want you to go after him. He's very dangerous and I like you, Jason. I don't want you to get hurt."
"You really need to learn to trust me."
"I just don't trust him. Life has hardened him and he won't hesitate to hurt you for taking what he thinks is his." Lorenzo has a very complex history.
"Why would you stay with him if he is that dangerous?"
She shrugged. "He's very smart and has an appreciation for the arts. We had great chemistry and he treated me well and he shields me from the business. I don't see that side of him. He was good to me."
He doesn't understand why she'd settle for a megalomaniac. "So, he spoiled you and lured you in and you fell for it?" Her ex seems a bit similar to Sonny which sickens him.
She is taken aback by the bitter inflection of his words and then realizes he is jealous and moves closer. "It was more than that and complicated. I don't need a bunch of material things. Love and respect are what is important and up until recently, I thought I had that, but I was wrong. You know all too well that your job doesn't define every aspect of your being. You have a cold side yourself, but I've seen some your warmth and know that you are so much more than being an enforcer."
He tugged her against him. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have judged you like that. It's not something I normally do."
"It's okay. I get it."
Above all, he's scared that she'll run and he'll never find her.
"Can I ask you a question?" she asked.
"Yes."
"Is this more than just sex for you?"
"Yes."
She smirks. "You could elaborate a little more."
"There's just something about you that makes me want to get to know you more. I'm—I'm not always good with words."
"You're doing just fine and I like you too. Besides, I'm not a one night stand kind of girl."
"I haven't been with anyone for a while now. Business has a funny way of being all consuming. There is always some drama going on and I don't always get time for myself."
"I understand. I get these cases that can go on for months and it takes over my life, but sometimes you just have to step away so you can get some perspective. We both love what we do for the most part and it's important to find your passion and live it."
A slow smile edged onto his face. "But you're a lawyer. They—"
Her eyes playfully narrowed. "What what you say next, Morgan."
He kissed her passionately, moaning as she met every stroke of his tongue. Backing her up against the wall, he lifted her and she wrapped her legs around his narrow waist. It seems like forever since he has been so into someone. Eva intrigues him. While he knows she's smart and talented, there is so much he wants to discover including how many ways he can make her scream.
"Jason…" God, he is winding her so tight as he kisses and pumps his hips against her.
"Do you want me, baby?"
"Yes!" she practically hissed as he nibbled on her neck.
He strode towards the stairs as they wildly kissed and easily carried her to the bedroom where he made her scream several times in the next few hours.
