The Life of Anna, Part 2: Entwined (41 page)

When she sat at his feet last night, he'd seen her moving her fingers slightly as if she were dancing in her mind. It had been subtle and he didn’t mind, as long as it didn't interfere with her duties, and it hadn't last night. She seemed happy and that pleased Devin.

Anna stirred in his arms and opened her sleepy green eyes to smile at him. “Good morning, Master,” she said quietly. Her braids were slightly frizzed from a night of lovemaking.

“Good morning, Baby,” he said with a smile.

He felt her hand moving down his stomach to his cock and grasped it. His eyes closed and he moaned as she stroked him with her small but strong hand. He could get used to waking up with her. She was so intuitive about what he wanted.

Maybe he should bring her home with him a few times a week. But then he might have to explain her to his daughters and he was reluctant to do so. Maybe he'd just stay at her apartment a few nights a week. Hmm. That idea had merit.

He pulled her up onto his front, her entrance at his tip. She giggled and wiggled her hips as he held her in place, not letting her pierce herself on him.

He chuckled at her pout. “Sit up, Baby.” She pushed herself up on his chest and he held her above his cock, the tip resting just inside her. She squirmed, wanting him inside her.

“Please, Master,” she whimpered.

“Be still, Anna.”

She instantly stopped moving and looked at him in surprise. He didn't use her name often. But he wanted her still. He smiled so she'd know he wasn't angry. He held her above his cock then abruptly pushed her down on him in one swift thrust. Her eyes widened and mouth opened in surprise. She tried to move, but he held her hips and shook his head. He wanted to be in complete control. He held her in place as he thrust up into her.

“Oh!” She sighed and closed her eyes. He felt her clench her vaginal muscles and he groaned. She was so fucking tight naturally. When she clenched it was amazing.

“Baby, you feel so good,” he groaned as he fucked her. A tiny smile played at her lips.

He pulled her off of him and flipped her onto her knees with her chest pressed into the bed, then slammed himself back into her wet slit. He held her hips and fucked her hard. She moaned and clutched at the sheets. He didn't care if she came. She came plenty last night.

Devin felt the tingling in his lower spine, then thrust hard and stiffened as he emptied himself into her tight sheath. Anna shrieked into the mattress as she came, her muscles pulsing around his cock making him groan.

He breathed heavily and fell back onto the bed, pulling Anna with him. He felt very satisfied with his relationship with her and kissed the top of her head affectionately. He couldn't allow himself to feel too deeply for her. There were things that needed to happen in the future that would be made difficult if he fell in love.

But Devin didn't worry about falling in love. Love got in the way of bigger plans. But if Anna needed to feel that he loved her, then he could allow himself to show some affection. Besides, it would keep her happy, and a happy woman is much more effective than a frightened one.

“I love you, Baby. I'm so glad you're here with me.”

Anna looked up at him with wide eyes. She bit her lip and then finally smiled. “I love you too, Master.” She leaned up and kissed him with her soft lips.

He'd forgotten how nice it felt to kiss her. He'd have to remember that in the future. He tangled his fingers into her hair and kissed her deeply, allowing the luxury of losing himself in her love for him.

CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR

 

 

Anna stared at herself in the mirror. Devin had said to wear a sexy dress. She hoped the short black dress would be sexy enough. It was low cut, but not as low cut as some other dresses. But the skirt flared slightly and she thought he would appreciate that. Easier access to her. She wore stockings and a thong and a push up bra underneath.

She checked her makeup and was slipping into her three-inch black heels when she heard a knock at the door. She rushed to open it with a smile, expecting Devin.

But it wasn't Devin. It was her new neighbor, Greg.

“Oh!” she exclaimed when she saw him.

He wore a black shirt that strained against his well-developed chest and arms. Her eyes widened at the sight.

Greg grinned, looking her up and down. “Wow,” he said. “Going out, or is this what you wear to hang out at home on a Saturday night?”

Anna blushed. “I'm going out,” she answered softly.

“That's good. Otherwise that would be a waste of a very sexy dress.”

“You think it's sexy?” she asked, hoping he wasn't lying to make her feel better.

Greg gaped at her as if she had grown as second head. “Are you kidding?” He laughed. “I can't imagine much sexier.”

She smiled in relief. “Thank you.” She hoped Devin would agree. “Can I help you with something?” she asked, looking behind him nervously for Devin.

“Oh, yeah.” He shook his head. “You made me forget.” He gave her a disarming grin and she bit her lip. He really was handsome. “I was wondering if your cable was working. Mine stopped a while ago and before I called the cable company I thought I'd check and see if it was just my line or if it was the building.”

“Um. I don't know. I haven't had the TV on all evening.”

“Would you mind checking? If it's not too much trouble.” He gave her an apologetic smile.

“Sure,” she said hesitantly.

“I'll wait here,” he said with a smile.

She smiled back, relieved. He wasn't just trying to trick her. She went to her TV and turned it on and back off.

“No, it's working....” Her voice drifted off as she saw Devin standing in the doorway. He was looking at Greg suspiciously, then turned a questioning look on Anna. “Hello, Devin,” she said nervously. “I was just—”

“I just moved in next door and I asked her to check and see if her cable was working,” Greg interrupted. “Mine isn't.”

He ran his fingers through his hair and something on his arm caught Devin's attention. Devin frowned at Greg and Greg simply looked at him with an almost haughty look. Did they know each other? Anna saw a mark on Greg's right forearm, but was too far away to discern what it was.

“So it's working?” he asked her.

She nodded.

“Okay. Cool. It's something on my end then. I'll talk to ya later, Anna.” Greg flashed her a smile, cocked his brow at Devin and turned and walked away.

Anna looked at Devin nervously as he looked out the door. He turned and studied her. “Who is he?”

“He moved in this week. His name is Greg.” She shrugged. “That's all I know.”

Devin looked at her for a few more moments, then smiled. “Ready?”

Anna nodded, relieved he wasn't angry.

*****

Anna smoothed her skirt as Devin pulled up in front of a restaurant near the Golden Gate Bridge. He left the car in the care of the valet and then they went inside. Trenton and Maki were waiting for them at a table in the bar area and Devin and Anna joined them.

After greeting them warmly, Devin told Anna to go to the bathroom with Maki. She gave him a confused look, but did as he told her.

“I'm looking forward to getting to know you better, Anna. My husband has enjoyed doing so.” Maki smiled as they walked into the bathroom together.

Anna didn't know how to respond to that and so smiled back at her nervously. When they were inside, Maki took her hand and led her to the handicapped stall, where she pressed Anna against the wall and kissed her.

After the initial shock of Maki's lips against hers, Anna kissed her back. Maki's hands roamed Anna's body and Anna moaned softly as Maki squeezed her breasts.

“You like that, pet?” Maki asked softly. Anna nodded and she squeezed again. Maki smiled and trailed her hands down Anna's side and to her hips, then knelt in front of her. “Open your legs, pet.” She commanded softly, lifting Anna's thigh and moving her thong aside.

Anna grasped the rail behind her and gasped as Maki's tongue invaded her wet folds. Maki hummed her appreciation as she devoured Anna, then sucked hard on her clit until Anna came, hard but quietly. Anna's supporting leg would hardly hold her up, but Maki didn't let go of the leg she was holding.

“I have something for you,” Maki said softly. “Keep your leg up.”

Anna did and saw Maki searching her purse for something, then smiled up at her. Maki probed Anna's pussy for a moment, then Anna felt her push something inside. A moment later the sting began and Anna's eyes began to water.

“No, please not that,” she whispered.

Maki stood and kissed her. “Don't fret, pet,” she said softly. “Consider it foreplay.” She squeezed Anna's breast again. “Devin told Trenton about your cinnamon-flavored pussy and we couldn't resist trying it tonight. I can't wait until we get home.”

Anna wasn't sure what awaited her tonight. She'd been looking forward to spending the evening with Devin and his friends, but she hadn't been expecting this. What had she done to upset Devin? Maybe talking to Greg made him angry?

She followed Maki back to bar table, eyes downcast and afraid. She sat quietly as the others talked about things she didn't know anything about. When the hostess came to let them know their table was ready, she obediently followed Devin and sat next to him. She wasn't very hungry and had a difficult time deciding on what to order. Not to mention the pain deep inside her.

Devin put his arm around her shoulders. “What's wrong Baby?” he asked, nuzzling her ear.

“Did I anger you, Devin?” she asked quietly.

Devin looked genuinely surprised. “Why would you think that, Anna?”

She looked up at him with hurt eyes. “Why do you want me to hurt?”

Devin looked confused for a moment, then smiled gently. “Oh, Baby. I'm not angry with you. Sometimes to please me or my friends, things might hurt for a bit. But I know you can handle it.” He leaned down and nipped her ear and she sighed. “And you are going to taste so delicious later. I can't wait to get my mouth on you.”

Anna blushed. “Really?”

Devin nodded. “You don't need to equate pain with punishment anymore, Baby. Sometimes pain is pleasure, remember?”

She remembered. Pain could be very erotic. “So you're not angry?”

“Absolutely not, Baby. I'm very happy with you.”

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE

 

 

Alex cursed and threw his phone on the couch beside him.

He rubbed his eyes. This was not what he needed right now. He was trying to finalize plans for his return home. He didn't need a mission to interrupt him. But when an Elder called, you obeyed. That's how it worked.

It didn't matter that Alex himself was an Elder-Son. What mattered was that he was the best sniper the Brotherhood had and when an important job came up, he and his team were the ones called.

From an early age, he'd had an interest in the military, beyond just playing with his little army men as a child. When he was old enough to read, he read everything he could on military strategy, military heroes, warfare...anything he could find in the home and public libraries related to the subject. When he announced, at age thirteen, that he wanted to join the military after secondary school, his father was livid.

Alex had more important things to do than play soldier, Vati had said. Alex was dumfounded to hear his father say such a thing, considering how highly he always spoke of the military. And that was the day Vati
had taken him to the Schloss for the first time and told him what was expected of him.

He'd known Vati was an important man. People in the city respected and deferred to him. When they had parties at the Kunze Landgut, important government officials were always in attendance. Alex had always just assumed it had something to do with the fact that they were wealthy and titled. And now he understood why; because they were really the rulers of the State, just in a backroom manner.

So, Alex was expected to grow up to become the next Elder of Hesse, not a military hero. His extreme disappointment was temporarily pacified by the introduction to the Dirne. So many beautiful women overwhelmed his senses. His father laughed as Alex stared at the scantily clad women.

“Pick one,” Vati had said. “They will all gladly help you in becoming a man, Alex.”

He'd chosen a sweet looking brunette with green eyes as his first lover. She'd taken him to a room and introduced him to the pleasures of lovemaking.

By the time Alex had graduated from secondary school, he was an expert lover and an expert marksman.

His love of the military never died and he had taken it upon himself to find a tutor to teach him to shoot. His friend Jean-Luc was the son of the French ambassador. The security men at the Embassy were all ex-military, and one in particular was a skilled retired sniper whom Alex had the utmost respect for.

Alex had spent hours with Gaidon, learning everything there was to know about being in the military, especially as a sniper. Alex thought maybe if his father saw that he had talent he would let him join the military. At least for a while, until Elder duties became necessary.
