“How often did he physically abuse you?” Thorn asked, and his voice was deep and full of concern.
“I can’t count,” I said and shrugged my shoulders.
“Every time he thought I had defied him in some way. Every time he thought I was disobeying him. The degree of violence varied. Sometimes he just slapped me, sometimes he slammed my body against the wall and gave me nosebleeds. I had bruises on my arms all the time, just from him holding me tightly,” I said, and I couldn’t look at Thorn anymore. I covered my face with my hands and tried to not weep.
When I felt his hand on my head, I drew my hands away and looked into his handsome face. I still couldn’t believe that a man like him was so concerned for me, that he genuinely cared. His deep green eyes were heavy with anger and concern, his face was dark and stormy. I knew that if Ryan were in the room right now with us, he wouldn’t stand a chance against Thorn and his fury.
“Did you ever report it to the police?” Thorn asked and nodding my head, I got off the bed.
I walked over to my closet, and rummaged around in one of the drawers where I kept all the papers.
“I should have gone to the police a long time before, but I only had the courage one night when he was drunk and passed out on the floor. I had a split lip, and with a bleeding face, I went to the police,” I said, bringing over the papers to him. Thorn took them from me and flipped through the pages.
They were the medical documents of my examination of physical and mental abuse. It also contained a copy of the restraining order that had been levied against Ryan in the state of New York. Thorn studied them carefully and nodded his head.
“This is good, I’m glad you had the courage to do this,” he said, and I gulped. Getting a restraining order was the only reason why I could make my escape from New York. It was why I had the life I now did in LA.
“Do you know what happened to him after you left him?” Thorn asked. I gulped and shook my head.
“He never contacted me, and I tried to not think about him. We have no mutual friends, and I didn’t try to find out. I figured that he had gotten a scare when the police knocked on his door and handed him the restraining order,” I said, and Thorn was nodding his head knowingly.
“Yeah, ultimately, guys like him who pick on defenseless women, are just pussies. I just have to figure out where he is now and why he suddenly has the courage to come after you,” Thorn said, and I pressed my lips together, to stop myself from breaking into another volley of tears. I didn’t want Thorn to think that I was a cry-baby.
He saw me trying to fight my tears, and he reached for my hand.
“It’s going to be all right, we’re going to take care of him. I and my club are going to make sure that Ryan is gone from your life,” there was conviction in Thorn’s eyes as he spoke to me and I couldn’t help thinking that he had a definite plan.
“How are you going to do that? What are you going to do?” I asked, and Thorn reached for my hand again and gave it a squeeze.
“You don’t need to worry your pretty little head about it. I’ll take care of it. Just leave it up to me,” he said. Thorn was holding my gaze strongly, and I could feel my cheeks beginning to flush again. He always had such a strong effect on my body that I had no control over.
“For now, let me draw you a bath, and you can relax a little,” Thorn said, and I couldn’t stifle the smile that was forming on my face now. How did he know that was exactly what I needed?
***
Thorn had led me to my bathroom, where he started filling the tub with hot water. I stood by the door watching him work. He was sitting on the edge of the tub, running his fingers around in the water.
He was still in just his jeans, and his ripped, chiseled torso looked dreamy as he sat there. I couldn’t believe that I had sex with this man, that he was in my bathroom practically naked. He was definitely the finest physical specimen of a man I had ever slept with, and I just couldn’t get over how lucky that made me feel.
“The water’s ready,” he said, looking at me abruptly. He had caught me staring at his body again, and this made me blush.
I stepped into the bathroom, while he reached for a jar of bath salts. Tipping it over the tub, he poured some of the lavender scented salts into the water, and it bubbled up.
“You’ll have to undress for this, Ensley,” he said, with a smile in his eyes when he watched me approaching the tub. It was like, at this moment; I had completely forgotten about everything that had happened before this. I couldn’t understand it, but Thorn had a way of making me forget. I didn’t even remember hearing Ryan’s breathing over the phone. All I could think about was Thorn’s beautiful naked body, crouched over the bathtub.
I placed my hands on my shoulders, fiddling with the straps of my dress. Slowly, I pulled them down over my arms and Thorn was watching me. The dress traveled down over my breasts, and they swung into view. His green eyes grew as he saw them, swinging in front of his face.
Neither of us was saying a word. I pulled my dress down further, and it fell to the floor. Thorn’s gaze drifted down to the spot between my legs, still covered by my panties. I pulled that down too so that I was standing completely naked in front of him.
When he reached his hand out, I thought he was going to touch me; instead, he had just offered me his hand to hold, so that he could help me into the tub. I followed his silent instructions, reaching one foot into the water while he kept me steady with his hold.
The water was perfect in temperature, and I could instantly feel the calming effects of the lavender as the bubbles lapped against my skin. I giggled like a child as I thrashed down into the water, splashing water on Thorn. He laughed and wiped some soapy froth off his face. I was sinking into the water, my body was covered in bubbles and froth now. I could see Thorn’s eyes searching for the shape of my body through the water, but he couldn’t see.
Suddenly, he reached for my face with both hands, holding my cheeks between his palms.
“Just try and relax, Ensley,” he said, in a deep guttural growl and I parted my lips as I stared at him. My eyes were glittering bright, I wanted him again, and I knew that he could sense how much I needed him.
He reached his big body over the length of the tub, and with the strength in his biceps, he kept himself in that position while his mouth hovered just above mine.
It was me who initiated the kiss this time. I couldn’t control myself. I pushed myself, against the soft lapping waves of the water towards him, knocking my mouth right into his. Thorn opened his mouth, inviting my tongue into his and we kissed wildly.
I started moaning almost instantly. Nothing had felt so comforting before. To be surrounded by calming warm water, my body drenched in soapy bubbles and having Thorn’s mouth against mine. He kissed me back fiercely, my face angled in every direction as I welcomed his tongue down my throat. My breasts were rising and falling above the line of water, and I heard a splash, just as I felt Thorn’s hand reach for my left nipple.
I gasped in his mouth, as his fingers teased the nipple. Tugging and pulling and squeezing. Despite being in the bath, my body already drenched; I could feel wetness spreading between my thighs. I parted my legs instinctually, and gently, even though he was way stronger than me; I tried to pull Thorn into the water.
There was a loud splash when he jumped into the tub. A lot of the water thrashed out and on to the bathroom floor. I laughed loudly, as he settled himself, still in his jeans, at the other end of the tub.
“Maybe you should have undressed too, before getting into the water,” I said, cocking an eyebrow up as I looked at him. It didn’t take him long, he peeled his wet jeans off his body and threw it on the floor. Like a big whale in a small tub, Thorn looked like he was too big for the space but he didn’t seem to mind.
My feet were floating near his face, and he reached for one of them and gently stroked the sole of my foot against the rough stubble of his cheek.
The feeling was explosive. Soft against
rough. Shocks ran up and down my spine, and I could feel the knots in my belly tightening. I wriggled my foot away from his grasp, and I floated myself over to his side. I was climbing up his body, to reach for his face. I felt his hands on my waist as he pulled me closer.
Within moments, my breasts were pressing down on his expansive chest, and our lips grazed. I could feel my heavy eyelids drooping, my body was overcome with desire for him. Thorn tightened his grip on my waist, and his eyes roamed over my face.
“You were supposed to be relaxing,” he said, and I bit down on my lip.
“Exactly,” I replied, and he smiled.
***
I threw my head back, and my wet blond hair slapped against my bare damp back. My hands were on Thorn’s chest, and I had my legs on his either side. I could feel the strength of his arms as he held me, his hands on my waist, down my slippery thighs. Every inch of my body that he touched was immediately set on fire.
His green eyes were dark with desire now, and I looked at him with my mouth hanging open.
My pussy was ready for him, and his thick throbbing cock was erect and ready to take me too. I slipped and slid over him, adjusting myself so that I could position right over him. I gasped when I felt the tip of his cock graze the folds of my pussy.
The soapiness of the water around us made it easier for me to slide down over his cock. It stretched my pussy as I pushed myself harder and harder down. I could feel the length of him enter me, reach deep inside. I began to move.
