Chapter 142
“Can I carry you upstairs, please?”
I don’t reply but lift my hands in an upward motion. He squats down to place his hands under my
y ass and lifts me with case. Wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck I let him be the hero, for now. He takes us to the bedroom furthest away from the main. I assume that’s where my brothers took Mia, and I don’t even want to think about what they re doing in there. I wonder what they would think If they knew the kinds of things I’ve done with her. I let out a small giggle as he puts me onto the bed.
“What’s so
‘s so funny?”
“Oh ah…nothing.”
“Oh come on. I like a good joke as much as the next guy.” He nudges my shoulder.
“Do you know what a sex clubs is?” He freezes and sits a little
“Uhh, yeah I’ve heard about them.”
“So you know about the whole Dom Sub roles?”
“I know that’s sort of what we do…did.” He shrugs.
straighter.
“Do you think my brothers would find it funny to know the girl they re pining after has been my sub?”
He splutters and coughs, shock evident in his face. “Wh what? You and…you and Mia?” His face is going all red.
“See, funny, right? I laugh out.
“Probably best not to tell them that. He la
that.” He laughs with me. “Did you two…uh…” He rubs a hand over his neck.
“Fuck? No, I don’t touch my subs like that. I might make them do stuff to themselves but most of them, like Mia just like
being told what to do for a while. Some like pain.” I shrug.
I’m curious as to what he thinks about the idea of me being an experienced Dam. I feel pretty secure that he won’t go running around telling anyone.
“How did you get into it? Hmm, he’s curious, that’s a good sign.
“Funny story, Mia and 1 accidentally wandered into one when we were in search for a normal club. Something awakened in me. I’ve always felt pretty powerless, you know, being a mafia princess and having my whole life sort of written for me. How to act, what to do, where to go, who to interact with. It felt freeing to be the one in control for once.”
“That makes sense. I guess I kind of feel the opposite. Always having to be in control after my parents passed…I like when you take all that away from me.”
I take a long minute and a few deep breaths and then glace a look up at him. He’s gorgeous, built, those blue eyes are captivating. “You know I’ll most probably have to take Nico’s band for this alliance our family needs, right?”
“You don’t have to. Your parents would find another way, another alliance, something else.” He grabs for my holding them inbetween us with his large ones covering mine and such a hopefull look on his face.

“But we would never come across one like this, and they’ve been trying for security and profit.”
“At what cost though? Your freedom, your happiness? Do you even like him?”
I pull my hands back from his and try to think about the little time that I’ve spent with Nico. Given, most of the time I was high as a kite but he was nice and we hail some good laughs. It wasn’t like how I feel with Mason though, it was different.
“I don’t know, I wasn’t really thinking about him like that when I spent time with him before… Another cold sweat hits me and I’m starting to feel a little sick again.
“Come, I’ll run you a bath and you can get comfortable while I organise some dinner. We’ve got a whole week for you to think about your choice.”
He doesn’t push futher. I know he wants to, but he doesn’t and I’m thankful for that. I have a massive headache and my body feels like shit. I don’t need the inner termoil aswell right now..
Mason.
After I run Isla a bath I duck out to find the guys and see what we’re doing for dinner. I’m happy with tonights progress, she’s not fighting me so hard, actually talking to me and opening up a little more. It’s small steps but I’m happy with it, with just being allowed to breath the same air as her. I knock on the door at the other end of the hall and enter after Hunter yells out.
The three of them are huddled up in the large bed, Mia in the middle dressed in one of their hoodies and sweating pretty
badly in her sleep by the looks of the hair stuck to her forhead.
“How’s she doing?” I nod in Mia’s direction.
Kalden sits up and walks over to me while Hunter just pulls her closer to his chest while he leans against the headboard. “Pretty shit. She must have been dosed up heavy for a long time to be reacting so badly to the withdrawal. How’s my
sister?”
“Pretty
y much the same. She’s in the bath. What are we doing for dinner?”
“I’ll order some soup from that restaurant in the next town.” Hunter starts typing away on his phone. “It’ll probably be hard for them to keep anything down for the next few days.”
“You left Isla in the bath by herself?” Kaiden asks and I look at him as I tilt my head in question,
“Yeah…why, was I meant to stay?”
“What if she nods off. As you can see, they’re not exactly in the best way right now.” He motions to Mia and the reallty hits me hard. I shouldn’t leave her in a bath full of water.
“Fuck.” I say spinning on my heels and running back down the hallway. I haven’t been gone for long but the brain can only handle a lack of oxygen for three minutes before it becomes dangerous. I bound through the bedroom door and then the bathroom.
