Owning the Beast(14)

“Boss, you got an important—” Logan’s voice penetrated the bubble of bliss we were in. Sitting up fast, I scrambled to cover myself. Griffin was up at lighting speed, grabbing Logan by the shirt and pulling him up to be nose to nose with him. Turning my back on them, I pulled my dress up to cover my breasts. Luckily, everything else seemed to be in place.

I heard Griffin growling at Logan and I turned around. “You’re lucky I won’t rip your f*cking head off. You better not have seen her naked!”

Lifting his hands to show Griffin that he wasn’t a threat, Logan placated, “Boss, I swear I didn’t see anything.”

“If I ever so much as catch you looking at her, you’re out of here. Do you understand me? She. Is. Mine. Got it?”

Griffin’s reaction seemed a little over the top but I couldn’t help but love how possessive he was over me. I felt truly and utterly safe for the first time in my life. Thinking back to this morning, I cringed at the thought that I may have provoked this pissing match with my teasing at breakfast. Rushing over to them, I grabbed Griffin by the arm, trying to calm him down.

“Sweetheart, please, it was just an accident. We were fooling around in broad daylight; anyone could have stumbled upon us and see us. Or is it normal for you fool around with women out here?” I pouted, dropping my face to stare at the ground, trying to get his attention back on me.

“Of course not, Angel.” He released Logan, framing my face with both hands, gently tilting my face up to look up at him. “Only you.”

Standing on my tippy toes, I reached up for a quick kiss. Griffin didn’t seem to stand for it though as he deepened it. Logan cleared his throat and Griffin growled once more. Jesus, I think Logan has a death wish. Turning my attention to him, I could see the confused look on his face. I guess Griffin didn’t usually act like this. That thought brought a smile to my face and all the warm, fuzzy feelings from before heated up my stomach once more.

“What’s so important that you’re still standing here, Logan?” Griffin demanded.

“I’m sorry, sir, but you have an important phone call that can’t wait.”

“Fine. I’ll go up to my office in a little bit. I’m going to walk Bella back to the house so tell them to hold or I’ll call them the f*ck back.”

“Sure thing, Boss,” Logan agreed as he all but ran back towards the house.

Turning to face me, Griffin looked down at the ground and bent over, grabbing my lace panties and stuffing them into his pocket. After they were safely tucked away, he grabbed hold of my hand and gently tugged me in the direction of the house. “I don’t want you to be out here all alone again, Bella. Something could have happen to you.”

“Don’t be silly, I’m fine out here. What could possibly happen?” I replied, trying to slip my hand from his. I would rather much lie out here in the sun if he was going to be working. When I was still living in Mexico, I didn’t get to be outside much. My parents had always kept me hidden away.

“Bella, please, I won’t be able to get any work done if I know you’re outside, wandering around all alone.” Stopping in his tracks, Griffin turned to look at me with a pleading look in his eyes.

“I know we don’t know a lot about each other yet, Griffin, but please do not keep me caged inside. I’ve been locked away for so long and I don’t want that kind of life here. I don’t want to live that way anymore.” I could see him struggling to come to a decision after hearing my words. I wasn’t sure what he was so worried about. We were out in the middle of nowhere. I didn’t see how anything could happen to me out here.

“I’m sorry, Bella. I’m not sure what’s wrong with me. You’re making me feel things I’ve never felt before and the idea of you slipping through my grasp is simply terrifying. I know this is something we will need to talk about but please, just come back into the house for now. I’ll get some stuff straightened out and then I’ll take you anywhere you want to go. I promise. Please.”

The look of vulnerability on his face softened my resolve. “Okay, sweetheart, if it means that much to you. I’ll explore the house today and get a better feel of the kitchen. I love to cook. I think I’ll cook something up for dinner tonight.”

I could practically see the tension drain out of him and relief flashed across his face as he started to drag me back towards the house. Maybe I wasn’t not the only lonely person around here.





CHAPTER 6 Griffin





As Annabella and I walked into the house, she leaned in, giving me a quick peck on the lips. I wanted more and my hungry hands squeezed her hips, pulling her against my now fully hard cock. With a hand on her neck, I deepened the kiss, slipping my tongue into her mouth, coaxing hers out to play as I began to slowly grind against her. Wrapping her arms around my neck with a sigh, Annabella melted into me.

I had just had her on the ground in the middle of the day like an animal not too long ago, and now, I needed her again. I couldn’t seem to satiate this primal need for her.

“Just once more, my Angel. Just one more quick f*ck and I’ll concentrate on something other than getting inside of you.”

Sliding my hands under her thighs, I lifted her and her legs automatically locked themselves around my waist. I love how trusting she was and her body was always so willing to accept me. Turning, I entered the first room we came across. Kicking the door shut behind me with my foot, I turned our bodies so that her back was up against the door. I pinned her against the door, using my hips to hold her there. My fingers ran up her neck and tangled in her hair, something I just couldn’t get enough of. I grabbed fistfuls of the dark waterfall and crushed my mouth against hers, wanting to taste her once more. Tonguing her mouth, I moved on to lick her earlobe, sucking it into my mouth, nibbling on it lightly. I continued to lick down her neck as she rubbed her whole body against mine like a cat in heat.
