Beth POV
I watched him get into the car sluggish the cold air whipping into the car as he collapsed in the seat beside me. It only pissted me off more to see how slow he was moving I was the one with the FBI on my trail. As the door clicked behind him I continued to look out of my window I was too livid to look at him.
I knew that he gave me that sly sexy grin of his then I would melt instantly. So instead I simply played with the knobs on the radio but my guess is that he was glaring at me. "What ups."
I took the chance and looked over to him as his gravelly voice rung in my ear sending shivers down my spine.
As I shifted in my seat to get a better look at him I could see the exhaustion that had taken over his body. He barely looked like he could keep his eyes up, he looked like death warmed over.
Even his bright burning brown orbs seem duller and filled with exhaustion was there something that I am missing. His sault bright and hot brown eyes were clouds over his exhaustion and his voice sound husky.
It looked like he spent the better part of the afternoon having sex and by the smell of two flowery perfumes, I can only assume that he was sleeping with other people. Anger founds its way into my tone as rage bubbled in the pit of my stomach.
"Sorry if I interrupted your time with your other girls." I laced my voice with as much venom as I could muster, who did he think that he was playing with.
I wasn't going to be cheated on for the second time I wasn't going to be anyone fool, I changed a glance at Rio only got this confusion on his face. His jaw was clicking as his eyebrows were twitching as he knew that I was thinking the worse.
He could read my ambition like an open book and I thought that I was doing a pretty good job at hiding them. I guess not, I dropped my gaze there was no way that I would give up my thoughts that easily.
"Baby it's not even like that you are the only women no the only goddess that I want. My mother called and asked me to come over she needed to talk to me. Which is why I smell like perfume one is hers the other is my sister's, I meant what I said when I am with you, then I am only with you, you don't ever have to worry about me stepping out. I'm not Dean."
I could see the way that his lips curled inc disgust when he mentioned deas name, even the way that it curled off his tongue made it seem like Dean himself was an insult, but I couldn't help the chord of guilt that I felt tugging at my heart.
I did know how much of what he said was true but when I looked up I was meeting his loving brown gaze. I could see every one of his emotion he usually wasn't this unguarded and I know that he as simply do it to show me that he wasn't lying.
So when the cool sense of relief washed over me like a waterfall I didn't stop the sense, I was glad to know that he was only with me. I know that we never talked about us begin excuse but I had this hope in the back of my mind.
That he just now confirmed for me, he even mentions his family which was a new thing in our relationship. Other than his gangbanging cousin I didn't think that he had any other family.
I nodded my head absently o show him that I believed him before he raised a gentle and noble figure out my face. Gently tracing the outline of my jaw as he gazes deep into my eyes. "So what's up."
His fingers left trails of scorching hot heat that makes it hard to focus on what I needed to tell him. All I could think about was riding him right in the front seat of the car, which would be in poor taste. Right?
I took in a deep breath trying to force myself as I was hit with his musky forest scented collagen, the light trace of his mom and sister perfume were still there. But I could look past it for the moment but I didn't want to get back to his family it was the next logical step in our relationship right.
Dammit, Beth, you need to focus on what is important but wasn't Rio important, I took one more breath before looking Rio in the eyes.
I need to be able to gauge his response to what I was about to tell him. All I was met with was a loving and patience gleam in his eyes.
"The FBI stopped by my house for the second time in a day. He mentions that we had to talk and I couldn't put the meeting off any later than tonight. What am I going to tell him, it's not like I can tell him what I am really doing with you." He frowns at my worried tone before this cocky grin started to form on his face.
That same damn grin that made me weak in the knees and wet all in one shot.
"What are you doing with a guy like me." He sent me another cocky grin as his gravelly and husky voice ripped through me like saw blades.
But even under all of his cockiness I could hear and see the love that he had for me. He was a lot sweeter and gentler than he let on.
"I don't even know what I would call our relationship." I watched his eyebrows scrunched up as he frowns at me as I had just said something wrong.
His gentle caressed my cheek stopping at my lower lip not bothering to trace it, but his gaze never once waver from mine. His gentle eyes didn't hardener at my statement he didn't even seem to blink like he didn't think anything of it.
Instead, he gripped my hand gentle offer interlacing our figure. His warmth spreading over me as I let my gaze drop to look at our hands, his mocha skin complected my pale skin perfectly. It looked like his hand was meant to hold mine.
But I didn't get a chance to look at our hands for long seeing as how he used his right hand it lifted my chin up so that our gaze was meeting once again. Only this time I could see the deviant in his eyes as his tongue dart over his lips as he pulled me into a deep kiss.
Hi, tongue exploring and whipping at every corner of my mouth as he pressed harder, harder than even the first time that we had sex. It was wild and passionate but he tastes sweet like bourbon and with every passing moment we kissed.
I could feel myself get light headed and my heart speeds up. One kiss and he had me coming undone and dependent on his like a junkie waiting for their next fix and I loved it.
"You're my girl it's that simple, if he asks you, tell him that we are together it's that simple. I am heading home but text me when you get back." Before I could say a word he left me shellshocked. To stunned for words and to worked up and sexually frustrated to think.
My lips began to buzz as I replied his last words over and over in my head for the next 20 minutes as I drove the office. I was his girl, and just thinking about it made me giddy like a high school girl who got asked out by the quarterback.
As I walked into the FBI Detroit office I focused on that thought. I had to sell this or my budding relationship would end as fast as it had started.
I couldn't think about losing him no matter how stupid that sounded. As I made my way into a glass office covered in shades I was met with the steely gaze of a tall black man sitting in a cheap suit.
"So do you want to tell me what you were doing with him." I shook my head sadly as I met his cold gaze with my fiery gaze of determination. He had the nerve to judge me if he thought that he could shame my actions he had another thing coming.
"I'm seeing him after my husband cheated on me with a 20 something-year-old child. Then nearly lost the house and all of our money I decided I was done with him. I remember meeting him at a bar we hit it off have a few drinks. He took me home and we fucked on the kitchen countertop. The rest was history we have been together since and that way about a week or two ago. If there is nothing else would you mind leaving me and my kids alone? Peaster my soon to be ex-husband all you want but leave me alone."
I could see the shocked and convincing look on the FBI's agents face I don't give a damn what he thought Rio was my man and I would defend him. Agnist for this piece of shit in a two piece suit. As I moved out of the chair I walked quickly to the door when I noticed the little gears shifting in his little fucked up mind.
"Well if that is the case then we need to have a talk about what he is doing, what do you know about his business." I couldn't control the growl that left my mouth did he really think that I would narc on him. He had to be out his mind.
"Yeah, I have no clue what the hell you are talking about but I, either way, I don't give a shit what you want him for now get the fuck out of my way and leave my boyfriend and me alone."
He froze in place at the sound of my harsh and unforgiving tone I slipped passed him it was really a piece of work. Did that move work on anyone I mean really who did he think that he was talking to like that.
I was hit with a molding smell as I made it further into the dark and dank garage, I could hear the sound of moment behind me and it was really creeping me out. Chills ran up and down my spine as fear started to creep into my chest like little nervous butterflies.
I gripped my keys close to my chest as I hit Rio name and called him. With each ring of the phone, more fear and anxiety creep into my chest as the feeling of someone watching me rushed further into my chest.
By the time that he answered I was a unravel and frazzled mess and by the time that I had made it to my car I was more than a little freaked out. I collapsed into the leather seat locking the car door and resting my head firmly against the headrest.
Letting my eyes slip sloe only for a moment till a thick husky voice let out a low moan of exhaustion.
"Hey I just go out of the meeting with the FBI agent, he asked me what I knew about your business, can you believe that he really had some nerve. To think that I would every rat you out he had to be out of his mind."
I could hear him talking darkly but there wasn't a single ounce of amusement in his voice. "Ok, I'll text you my address come over." I hear his demanding tone as it runs through the recipe and straight to my heart causing it out sped up.
Before I could tell him that he needed to rest there was a buzzing agent my skull that I knew had to be his address. "The door will be unlocked follow the stars up to the second floor, third door on the right."
Then the phone just caught off but I was still met with that feeling that someone was watching me. Before I could end up like every other girl in a horror movie I looked into the back of my car to make sure that it was safe before pulling off.
By the time that I had made it to his house was a pleasant surprise I thought that he would be in a more dodgy neighborhood. No matter how much money he made with this gang he still didn't seem like the suburbs kind of guy.
But seeing the nicely lit streets and the well-paved driveway that led to a black house with a red trim. I had to admit that I was happy to see that he didn't live in a place where I could get shot if I looked at a guy the wrong way.
As I slowly slammed the car door shut I grabbed my keys close to my chest just in case, the feeling of someone watching me was still there and I didn't like it. But as I approached the red door with the golden nob I felt the tension in my body ease as the cold steel knob bit into my skin.
As I push the door slowly opened I slammed it shut quietly before locking it, there was no way that I had a feeling of someone watching me and them not be behind me.
As the locks squared the door I felt the tension slip from my body as I shifted towards the stare. I didn't bother to look at the wall there would be time for that tomorrow morning.
I came to the 3rd door on the right in record time, as I looked at the floor I could see this soft blue glow it had to have been the tv. This had to be Rio's room that I was about to step into.
My body filled with this nervous angry this was a big step whether he saw it that way or not, me seeing his place. Was the first step in seeing what he really is like when we aren't dealing with business.
So as I slipped the door open I felt my heart beat quickened but quickly slow when I saw Rio was passed out on the bed, his usually hard and ice cold mask slipped away. Leaving nothing but a peaceful look on his face that made him seem younger than he actually was.
He was dead to the world and he couldn't have looked cuter, I snapped a quick picture before he could wake up.
The tv was going off in the background I knew by the sound that it had to be a game of thrones I didn't think that he would watch the show.
"Hey, you are here."
I looked up to see that Rio has no longer knocked out on the bed. I couldn't have made a nose or maybe he was pretending to sleep. "Come lay with me."
His voice was gentle and soft which was probably bounces he was sleeping, I watch him lift the blanket while patting the empty spot on his left. It did look inviting how could I see no so I walked slowly over to the bed.
As I dipped into the warm inviting sheet I could see how exhausted he really was, and he couldn't have been cuter. I leaned forward as the overwhelming urge to kiss him became too strong.
When our lips met I felt my heart quicken ad he pinned both of my arms behind my head with one hand. When he pulled away from me he had this cocky grin on his face.
"I'm glad to see you here, I was getting tired of waiting on you literally." I giggled at him as he pulled me into another gentle but more passionate kiss.
