He licks his fingers before guiding his hard cock between my legs, pausing at my entrance to kiss me deeply. Locked in a drugging kiss, Leo thrusts inside me. A moan tears from my throat as he stretches me fully. He pulls back and thrusts again, his hips driving into mine, meeting my every rise. Each thrust brings me closer to the edge, and I squeeze around him, wanting to take all he can give.
Leo quickens his pace, and I’m lost. Pleasure, warm and throbbing, erupts from my core. I tighten around him, riding the waves of ecstasy. He grows stiffer and thrusts deeper, capturing my mouth with his as he fills me with his hot seed.
It feels as though we’ve been transported back in time, where nothing else matters but moments like this. Stolen moments shared in private under the clouds. Eventually, Leo rolls over, and I cuddle into the crook of his arm. He lazily runs his thumb over my bare arm, our legs and feet intertwined.
“Damn,” he says.
“Damn,” I reply, and we both laugh.
He tilts my chin up and kisses me gently, as if I were the finest porcelain. It’s enough to make my heart race again.
“You really are everything. I mean it,” Leo hums, caressing my cheek. I roll onto my stomach, and he pushes my hair from my shoulder, planting kisses there. A tear slips free from my lashes. Meeting Leo is the sweetest gift this world has ever given me.
Leo grins that devilish grin I’ve come to love so much. “Not even God could keep me away from you now.”
A happy hum leaves my lips as I linger in his warm embrace, savoring the mix of earth and aftershave, feeling completely safe and wanted. Placing my forehead against his shoulder, I enjoy this moment as if it’s the last of its kind, but I hope it’s only the beginning. We share another deep kiss, and for a second, I want to push him back to the ground and have another round. Before I can act on it, Leo steps back.
“Now, now. We’ll have plenty of time for another romp later.”
“Okay,” I say, grinning happily. “Maybe we should get out of here before we land ourselves in jail for indecent exposure.”
Leo tickles my sides, and I cry out in surprise. “They’ll have to get through me to cuff you. No man will ever take you from me. Not today, not ever.”
I laugh and push him back down, straddling him. As I lean down for a kiss, my hair cascades around us, framing his face. I trace the soft dark stubble shaping his jawline.
I never stood a chance; I fell helplessly hard for Leo from the start. I should feel shame for being intimate with this man so quickly, but I trust him in a way I’ve never trusted anyone else.
He kiss me then, murmuring against my lips. “You have my heart forever and always, even if it ruins me.”
Chapter Four
Leo
Dante, the ringmaster of the Misfit Cabaret, and I exchange quiet words with the guards at the tent’s entrance. We step inside, the heavy canvas flaps falling shut behind us. The air is thick with the scent of incense, the dim candlelight casting eerie shadows on the walls. Rich fabrics hang from the ceiling, and plush cushions are scattered around the floor where a small group of performers is gathered.
Evelyn waits until the guards are distracted before slipping inside. Her presence goes unnoticed by the others, but I sense her immediately. Her heart must be pounding as she takes in the opulent, secretive nature of the space.
Dante and I stand at the center of the room, addressing the group. Dante’s voice carries authority as he speaks of our mission, our commitment to exploring the depths of human desire through our art and performances. I can feel Evelyn’s eyes on me, the intensity of her gaze cutting through the dim light.
“Our performances are crafted to evoke powerful emotions creating connections between us and our audience,” I say, my voice steady. “We push the boundaries of art and desire, and we do it together, as a family.”
Evelyn can’t stay hidden any longer. She steps forward, her expression a mix of shock and intrigue. The room falls silent, all eyes turning to her. “Why wasn’t I told about this?” she demands, her voice trembling with emotion.
“Evelyn,” I begin, my tone calm yet firm. “There are things you needed to understand, experiences you needed to have before you could be brought into this world.”
She shakes her head, disbelief etched on her face. “You should have trusted me. I deserve to know.”
Dante steps in, his voice smooth and persuasive. “Evelyn, we were protecting you. The Misfit Cabaret is not for the faint of heart. It requires a level of commitment and understanding that we weren’t sure you were ready for.”
