Too good for him

Shaun's POV

That didn't look like an injury someone would get from a fall. She just lied to me in my face. I had punched a lot of people and that looked like a really hard one.

I felt a sting in my heart. I also felt furious that someone would dare lay their hands on her. I just needed the truth from her and the person was going to go down, but she didn't want to let it out.

As I gazed at her, I realized, I didn't even know anything about her. She was like a mystery that came into my life out of nowhere. Her eyes held a lot of pain each time I looked at them, but she didn't want to spill them out.

I didn't know where she lived. I noticed how much she panicked each time I brought up the idea of dropping her off. I realized the only thing I knew was where she was from. I wanted to know more about her. It was selfish to think that way because she also didn't know anything about me and I wasn't ready to let in on the dark details of my life.

I wanted her to stay with me. If possible even move in, but I knew she wasn't going to let that happen. She couldn't even spend a night, so that was too much to ask.

As I watched her walk to the bathroom, I realized she was a woman I would kill for. I selfishly wanted her only to myself so I could protect her from this wicked world. I wanted her to be happy, but each time, I tried to draw closer, the dark, guilty side of me makes me pull away

I walked towards the bathroom and stood at the door. It didn't take long before she got out of the shower. She jolted when she saw me.

“ Are you done?" I pulled her closer to myself. My body heated up immediately. I wanted her right there and there

“Y... Yes, of course. Why wouldn't I be?" She stuttered as she looked up at me. She was nervous, I knew. She wasn't good at hiding it.

“But I just got here,"

“If you want me to stay, I could" I wanted her to stay. Not only in the bathroom, but in my life. She was too precious for me to even think of letting her go.

“You know Lindsay. Seeing you naked drives me crazy" I caressed her lips with my thumb. “It makes me want to do things to you"

“Like what?"

"Like bend you over and fuck you until you forget your last name,”

I slipped my hand around her waist and pressed her hard against my groin. My semi-erection became fully hard

“ I can't get enough of you, Lindsay,” I said as I planted soft kisses on her neck. I watched as she closed her eyes, enjoying the pleasure that came from my touch

I whispered in my ears. “Are you sore?" And I watched as she shook her head

“good. Prepare yourself, you will surely get sore after this. I'll make sure of that”

"Is that a threat?”

"No, just a good way of marking my own” I slipped my hand into her soaking cunt and groaned at how wet she was.

I turned her around to look at me as I fingered her wet cunt. I inserted the second finger and then the third.

"Look at me Lindsay” I ordered and she looked at him.

"I like honesty and transparency when I'm working with people” Those were random, but her secrecy was driving me nuts. I wanted her to tell me everything.

"Wh.. what Is that supposed to mean?” She stuttered, breathing very fast as I continued fingering her

"What are you hiding from me, Lindsay?” I asked and watched as she stiffened. She couldn't think straight as a result of my finger that was buried deep in her mound

"I am not hiding anything from you Shaun”

"For your sake, I hope you aren't,” I said, not caring to hide the anger in my voice. It was frustrating.

"You have to believe me” she muttered under her breath

I turned her back around and that was when I said the words"I love you, Lindsay”

I noticed how she stiffened. She didn't say anything for almost a minute. What I said took her by surprise. It also took me by surprise. I didn't like the idea of love, but here I was, so madly in love with this woman. She was like a drug to me, a priority for my survival. I couldn't get her out of my head.

She parted her lips to speak, but I didn't let her. “Don't say it back" I wasn't even sure what she was about to say.

“Why?"

“I don't want you to say it. I don't want you to love me, Lindsay"

I had a dark heart and I didn't want her to get involved in it. I had killed people and done a lot of unspeakable things. I didn't deserve her love. I didn't want to let her into the gloom I called life.

I also didn't want to put her life at risk. The most important rule of this mafia game was to stay away from love. Another rival mafia group could hurt her.

"Don't you ever think of leaving me Lindsay” That wasn't an order? That was more like a plea. My life would go back to the void it used to be in when she wasn't there to shine her light on it.
