bos taurus | dogmeat series pt., i
mafia butcher Simon Riley x Reader
You don't question your brother when he sends you to drop off packages to his friends, but when the enforcer for the 141 shows up to teach the small-time dealer selling on their turf a lesson, you realize there are different ways to pay someone back with pounds of flesh.
(OR: your brother owes them, and Ghost is content to let you settle the debt. after all, if you wanted freedom, then you shouldn't have caught the eye of the butcher of the 141, should you?)
18+ SMUT. noncon. objectification. marking. kidnapping. threats of violence. unsafe sex (manipulation into unprotected sex). rough sex. size difference. breathplay. 10k of foreplay. light pussy slapping. overstimulation. mafia au.
SERIES MASTERLIST | AO3
The goal is to be as quick and discreet as possible.Â
In and out, he says, looping the baggie around his index finger. Inside, a snowfall of white powder settles at the bottom.Â
Meth this time. Oxytocin the last.Â
He ties it tight before giving the bag a quick shake, breaking up the clumps. Satisfied with the way it looks, he turns toward you. Levels you with a sombre look, the picture of a concerned older brother.Â
You almost fall for it. Believe it. But the clouded, flat edge to his gaze undercuts his worry for what it really is. A farce.Â
âAnd if it seems sketchyââ
ârun.
But your knees are locked, soles glued to the pavement. You can't move even though everything is screaming at you to flee.Â
The problem, maybe, is that there's nowhere to go. Escape cut off, filled by a body, a manâeven though the idea, the mere notion, of thinking this behemoth as human, flesh and bone; blood and tissue, is laughable when he's so clearly a beast. A monster.Â
He fills up your field of vision. Your line of sight was eclipsed by the thickness of his waist, the broad expanse of his shoulders. Thighs that are as wide as the trunk of a tree. Arms boxing you in. A prison of obsidian. A black shadow.Â
In the panic that surfaces, surging to the top like an oil spill, you catch a pocket where he doesn't root. A small alcove between the bend of his elbow and the slot of his knee perched against the wall. Enough room for you toâ
âWouldn't do thaâ if I were you.âÂ
His voice seems to shake the earth, rolling out of his broad chest like the low, brassy roar of a lion; a rumbling thunderclap.Â
You feel sickâ
The leather covering his hand is cold when it closes around your arm, grip tight. Bruising. Trapping you with just the slightest effort.Â
âGoâ a problem, you and I,â he starts, and it's almost conversational. Might be, perhaps, if the clean, sleek outline of his gun inside the unclasped holster around his ungodly thick waist wasn't threatening you more than the grip he has on your arm. âHow do you reckon we can fix it?â
You have a meagre twenty dollars in your pocket. Less money for them to take if things go awry. If they decide that the little girl standing in for her older brother was an easier target to robâmoney and drugsâthan to settle things fairly. Money, goods. Hand over hand.Â
Just like the movies, he'd said.Â
Just like the movies, you think when he leans in closer, bulk swallowing you whole.Â
There is a pockmark in the corner of his crooked, misshapen nose and the crease of his eye. A scar, maybe. It's circularâalmost perfectly so; a silver-pink moon on the angular ridge of his nose. Uneven, craggy, like crumpled printer paper.Â
It looks almost likeâ
You think of the mark on your arm. Soot-stained. The smell of burning hair, tissue. The searing pain.Â
âIâI can pay youââ you stammer out, tearing your gaze away from the ugly mark on his skin. A cigarette burn. It makes you shudder.Â
He cocks his head slowly like a big, dumb dog, but there's something eerie in the ink spill of his eyes. The soft matte of a saltwater crocodile staring at you from beneath the murk. Calculative. Hungry.Â
âPay me?â He echoes slowly, dragging the words out mockingly. âDâyou know âow much trouble your brother is in? For sellinâ âere of all places?âÂ
âNo,â you swallow. It feels like your heart is stuck inside your throat. âIâI justââ
âRun âis errands,â he finishes cruelly but you can't deny it. âAin't you a good little sister? Almost makes me wish I âad somethinâ as sweet as you fâmyself growinâ up.â
You don't answer. He doesn't seem to be looking for one, really; just empty words to fill space. To echo in your head, barbed wire around any sense of comfort you might have felt. Punishing cruelty.Â
He has the upper hand, it says. He's the one who makes derisive jokes while you tremble in his grasp, and try to make yourself as small, as unassuming, as possible. Hiding from the predator in plain sight. Hoping he passes you over for something bigger, more calorie-dense; the effort to catch and consume you expends more energy than the return. Hardly worth it in the long run. The comfort of a risk-reward ratio, right?
But he's opportunistic, it seems. A snacking scavenger.Â
Could eat, it says, like a basking tiger keeping a mouse trapped between his paws, letting it squirm and squeak as he slowly licks his lips. Not enough to fill its belly but enough to satisfy the gluttonous urge a predator has to eat. Sharpening its teeth on flimsy bones. Childâs play.Â
It's a fitting image, especially with the way he arches over you, looms; fingers looped around the thick of your arm, holding firm, but notâ
Not as tight as he could.Â
It's a loose-fisted grasp. Lazy, almost. He knows you won't runâor, at the very least, knows you won't get far.Â
You peel your gaze away from his, dropping it to the curve of his shouldersâthe width of them is just as dizzying as his height; broad, muscular. Pulling it further down the length of his arm, covered in a thick jacket. Black corduroy. Ashes stain the cuffs. A bulky watch juts out from his wrist. Gold. Glinting even in the grey-blue gloom of an overcast evenfall.Â
His muscles tense. Hand tightening around your arm, fingers digging hard. Rubbing muscle painfully against bone.Â
A warning, maybe. Stop lookingâ
But something else catches your eye. Blood red. The colour of meat. A fresh kill.Â
The back of his hand has a blooming rose. Petals spread out, unfurled. In the middle, a milky skull sits. Stencilled in boxy, yellow letters is ONE-FOUR-ONEâ
You know what it means even as your mind whirs, gears turning, turning; plummeting into a tailspin, making excuses as it falls, dragging your heart down alongside it. An area code. Some special date. An inside joke.Â
But you've seen the marking around town before. Heard whispers about them from your brother, his friends. 141, they say, and then: mafia.Â
The real deal, he said, puffing around a joint his friend rolled. It's too tight. He scoffs, and rips it out from between his lips. Shitty roll, man, make another oneâ
Mob. Mafia. Gangsters. It seemed so extreme, Hollywood. Fiction, fantasy, all rolled into one. Tony Soprano. Ralph Cifaretto. Michael and Vito Corleone. Tony Montana. Larger-than-life men created on paper.Â
You think your brother thought so too. Child's play. Grown men selling weed to kids for two hundred an ounce. Buying themselves sleek, black carsâG Wagons, Escalades, Cullinansâon the Xanax they sell at clubs, parties. Cocaine. Heroin.Â
Nothing to worry about.Â
Then his friend went missing.Â
Sent out on a routine delivery to drop off cocaine to well-dressed men in suits outside of a local butcher shop. A normal, nondescript Tuesday.Â
But he wouldn't answer his phone. Texts were being delivered, read, but no chat bubble appeared. Nothing sent back. Calls went straight to voicemail. He wasn't at home. Wasn't at his mum's. No one saw him. Heard from him.Â
Your brother didn't call the police. Didn't report him as missing.Â
It's just not what they do, he said. You don't involve them. Ever.Â
The most shocking part of it was that no one saw anything. He just vanished. Disappearedâstock anâ all, your brother angrily spitsâwithout a trace, picked up off the streets.Â
If it was the police, someone would have said something by now. They're hardly discreet. And a rivalâ
Well.
The biggest problem was that your brother was blindsided by his own small-time success. An accumulation of little wins bolstered his confidence. Overfed his ego. This fallout was tunnel vision. A refusal to see the bigger picture.Â
Or the storm clouds looming on the horizon.Â
You'd heard of the 141 in passing. Little quips, anecdotes from the passel of friends that congregated around your brotherâoften getting high on the couch and watching old cartoons; sharing a joint back and forth between gossip.Â
Through rheumy eyes, they'd talk about the real gangsters in townâmuch to the irritation of your brotherâand swap tales of run-ins and feats they heard from a friend (of a friend, of a friend). Most of the guys were known already. Soap and Gaz are the biggest names that cropped up on the streets through reputation alone. Both fighters for a gym. MMA, mostly, but whispers of street fighting and extracurricular activities weren't uncommon.Â
Liked the thrill of it, they said. But the worst was a man simply known as the Ghost. An enforcer for the 141âa fucking butcher, more like, Liam cut in, jaundiced eyes wideningâthe guy who took care of problems.Â
âCan't be,â your brother scoffed, lifting off the couch to reach in his back pocket for his wallet. A small anthill of white powder poured into the glass table. âThey don't get involved in our shitââ
And for the most part, you're sure that's true. Dealing to the same circle of peopleâoutreach spread through word of mouthâseemed paltry in comparison to the scale of an operation that had a money laundering gym. But the problem was that your brother lacked common sense. His ego often got in the way of foresight. The shadow greed casts blocking out the bigger picture.Â
Likeâ
Territory is territoryâregardless of what's being pushed.Â
You wish there was a modicum of surprise when his friend turned up. Barely recognizable. Sent right to the morgue as a John Doe.Â
Most would see the marks on the man's skinâthe distinct lack of bloodâas an indicator to abandon ship, find the boss, beg for forgiveness, and maybe even try to strike up a deal. Butâ
That picture is hidden under his anger. Greed. Selfishness.Â
He sends you instead.Â
You're somethinâ they ain't expectinâ, he said. Won't mess with you.
Right.Â
He catches the realisation dripping down your browâbeads of sweat gathering at your hairline; anxiety, fear, churning your stomachâand hums. Cocks his head to the side.Â
âWas expectinâ âim tâshow up, thoughââ he murmurs, hand tightening around your arm. The pressure, the sting, is eclipsed by the gnawing sense of dread biting viciously into you. âTold âim if I caught âim sellinâ on our streets again, there'd be trouble. Thought we âad an agreement after âis friend. Butââ
His eyes cut to yours. It feels like a knife to your guts, sinking into soft tissue. A pain you can't breathe around.Â
Won't mess with you, you think, and then viciouslyâsadlyâhe knew. Was warned by them and still sent you out. Let you take his place for whatever comeuppance they decided he deserved.Â
It should shock you. You almost wish it did. Desperately clinging to the threads of surprise that slip through your oily fingers, grasping onto the nothing but empty air. Numbed to the resignation that trickles in.Â
Of course he would leave you here to save himself. Letting you fend off whatever they threw at you alone. Leaving you trapped between a brick wall and a wall of a man.Â
The excuses are there. They pool on the tip of your tongueâit isn't me, don't do this, it's my (stupid, selfish) brother you want, not meâbut you swallow them down and try not to wince at how quickly they dissipate when you do. It doesn't matter in the end because whatever you have to say won't negate the drugs in your backpack. The empty house you'll lead them toâyour brother probably squirrelled away somewhere until this blows over. Half-hopeful you'd call him and say everything is fine, the deal went smoothly. You're on your way back. Or that the debt he racked up with them is settled by you.Â
It's half-hearted when it slips out again, caught between resignation and dread. A brittle whisper. A prayerâ
âI can pay you. Whatever he owes, I canââ
He's already shaking his head.Â
âToo late for that, birdie. âsides, I don't want your money.â
He moves back, rocking on his heels to put a small measure of distance between your bodies. In that scant space, he drops his gaze, sweeping it over you. His eyes darken.
When he pivots them down, catching yours, you can't stop the shiver that crawls up your spine.Â
That calculative gleam is back.Â
âBut I think we can work something else out.â
Something else turns out to be ushering you into the backseat of an old Ford pickup.Â
The door whines when he opens it. Rust flaking off, falling to the ground by your feet. Your mind reels. Spins comparisons to falling snow, dried blood.Â
He hauls you in with his hand wrapped around the nape of your neck, thick thigh sliding between your own to boost you up. The protestâa mindless, reactionary squeal at being manhandledâonly makes him chuff. A brief flex of his fingers around the skin of your neck is the only warning he gives before it pulls away, and wraps tight around your waist. His thigh flexes, muscle drawing taut as he shifts his foot up to the running board, lifting your feet off the ground and seating you fully on his leg like a child.
(In his hands, you feel like one, too.)
The motion makes you slip, back glueing along his broad chest with a shallow thump. You feel the rumble of his laugh trembling up your spine before you hear it.Â
âCareful,â he drawls, oiled with amusement. âMight slip.â
Anything you could say in response is choked back when he bumps the corded steel of his thigh into the seam of your legs, pushing tight to your clothed cunt. His intention is unmistakable this time. Unignorable. And with the rasp of filtered, balmy air against your crown; the pull of a groan when you rock back into his groin, the noise still slicked with mirth, you feel a knot of dread spool tight in your belly.Â
Something else is dragged back to the forefront, coiling like wisps of smoke around you.Â
And you knew. It's shocking, you think, but not necessarily a surprise. To call it a dichotomy would be lying to yourself, and so, you settle against it. This notion that what he wantsâwantedâis flesh. Not money. Not retribution.Â
Not to talk things out like you'd hoped heâd try (grabbing onto the idealistic thread, holding it tight to your chest); bringing you in and forcing you to convince yourâstupid selfish greedyâolder brother that quitting was the only option. Dangling youâbaby sisterâover his head in an appeal to his emotions. Familial bonds. Love.Â
That thread is cut. Snipped.Â
Probably severed when they first came to him with an offer. No strikes against him and yetâ
The idea of using you to make him bend was expunged from the drawing board. It's not even a plan b, or c, or z.Â
Andâ
You knew. Have known. Maybe that's why it's so easy to swallow around the panic when it lances through your chest, climbs up your throat. You can think and feel and breathe around this dagger in your back like it was there the whole time and you've only just noticed it now.Â
Nothing but a small, whispered oh in the roiling polyphony of your emotions.Â
It sits there as he manuevers you into the passenger seat of his truck, your head spinning around the indescribable sensation of being woefully cognisant despite the paralysing fugue pressing against the bubble of stark awareness that keeps it at bay. It manifests itself as a numbed sort of shock. Or more accuratelyâ
Indifference.Â
Defeat.Â
His hand brushes your cheek, the snag of dry leather against humid skin tugs uncomfortably at your flesh, stinging as they dance down to your jaw, the delicate line of your vulnerable throat, skimming over the curve of your breastâ
And it's too much. Too present. Too real.Â
Autopilot. Dissociation. Derealisation. All of these concepts slip past the bubble of hypervigilance, skidding the surface like a pebble thrown over a lake. Out of reach as he unashamedly gropes you, barely making an effort to mask his actions as just buckling you in.Â
You pretend, though. Curl your fists around the sides of the seat, fingers digging into the worn foam. Head lulling back on the headrest. Eyes fixed out the window as he walked around the front, head and shoulders still visible in the windshield despite the height of the truck. It makes your heart leap, stuttering in your chest as the absurdity of his size is brought back into focus. Too big, you think. Grossly so.Â
There's a moment when you think about running. Toying with the idea of sliding your hand over the lock, pulling the door open when he's too busy on his side to notice. It'll give you an advantageâa head start. Enough time to slink through the dense forest of concrete buildings lining the industrial zone, and into somewhere safe. Help, a behemoth is chasing meâ
But the door clicks. Swings open with a squeal of rusted metal just as your fingers twitch toward the handle. Hope evaporates with each lurch of the cab as he climbs inside, metal creaking under his weight when he settles in the seat.Â
From the corner of your eye, you can see his head tip. Chin angling toward you. Staring. Assessing.Â
When he speaks, you feel the words like cold fingers dancing maliciously down your spine.Â
ââpected you târun.âÂ
It's said idly enough. Nonchalant. Tone even, if a little cruel, and you wonder if this is some test. One that you passedâand failedâin equal measure.Â
He doesn't look away. It takes less effort than you wish it did to peel your lips apart, to breathe in the stale, mulch scent of the cabâsomething overgrown, rotting, and dampâand mumble:
Where would I go?
It seems to amuse him. He hums around a mouthful of mockery before turning away, pawing at the ignition. Gloved hand curling over the wheel.Â
âSmart girl.â
You don't feel very smart. In fact, you feel very small. Stupid. Maybe you should have taken a stab at itârunning. Tried, at least, to save your own life before the jaws of the beast closed over you like an iron bear trap around your ankle. Fought like hell. Clawed and kicked and screamed.Â
When most kids read the back of a cereal box, you learned about secondary locations. You know better than this.Â
But the truck sputters to life in a belly-deep rumble, hacking up soot into the air as he pulls the lever into DRIVE. The fight inside of youâhowever ephemeral it might have beenâdies inside the smoke spilling out of his exhaust. Gone so quickly that you begin to wonder if it was even there at allâ
Must be, you think, eyes listing outward. Keen. Mapping the twists and turnsâa futile effort in the end: he doesn't bother hiding where he's taking you, and you've been down these old, grim streets more times than you can count.Â
It doesn't surprise you much when he turns down the street leading to the butcher shop. An old relic that still carries the marks of a booming farming town before it fell victim to industrialisation. Concrete skyscrapers in place of lush cornfields. Warehouses over old barns, ranches. Cattle, meat, produceâit all used to be a mainstay here but now hides under layers of steel.Â
The dark windows of the small shop gleam with hazy smears of neon blue, red, when you pull up, catching on the array of rowdy bars across the street. All clubs that belong to the 141. A playground of drugs, sex. More money than you'd ever see in your lifetime.Â
It's an uncanny juxtaposition to the quiet, assuming street right across from it. Barber, butcher, accountant firm, antique store. All dark inside and bathed in the smeared stream of glimmering neon as lights flash in the fading glow of twilight.Â
He pulls up to the curb in front of the shop. A bold move if the streets weren't so empty. Lifeless. The clubs won't be open for four more hours. Everything else follows the same nine to five as the rest of the world. The shops closed an hour ago, and everyone in town seems to know not to linger here after dark.Â
The air seems to stagnate in your lungs when he cuts the ignition. Slips the key into his pocket.Â
âDon't get any funny ideas in tha' pretty little âead oâyours.âÂ
âFunny ideas,â you echo, toneless. Flat. It rolls out with your exhale. Words that might have been smarter to swallow down. âLike following a stranger to a butcher shop?âÂ
âLippy little thing, ain't you?â He scoffs. The truck creaks when he shifts. âAin't goâ no one tâblame but yourself. Told you what would âappen if you kept sellinâ in our territory. You should âave known better.â
âThat was my brother.â The words slip out before you can stop them. âNot meââ
ââow am I suppose tâknow that? You were sellinâ where I told âim not toââ he has the gall to shrug. Spit these careless words at you like it wasn't life or death. âThat's all there is to it, birdie.â
âThat's not fairââ
The truck groans under his weight, shaking from side to side as he leans over to push his door open before turning back to you, rolling his eyes.Â
âLife ain't very fair, is it?âÂ
The acerbic words are flicked out from between his teeth; an apathetic, droning curl clinging to each syllable. He doesn't care. Won't. What happens to you next is your choice, and yours alone.Â
And he's just doing his jobâ
âWhen I get out of âere, you ain't gonna do anythinâ funnyââ Â
His hand lashes out. Gloved fingers close over the thick of your throat in a blink. Fear lags by a beat, giving him enough time to sink his fingers over your neck, and when it catches upâheart rabbiting in your chest, thudding in your ears; roaring as your pulse thunders beneath the press of his thumbâheâs already got you in his hold. The width forces your chin to lift, stretching up to accommodate the curl of his hand around you.Â
Trapped like a rabbit. Cattle to the slaughter.Â
He tilts his head down, keeping his eyes on yours as he forces your crown into the headrest, chin lifted up. It's uncomfortable. The curve of your neck cuts off your airways. Constricts your breathing to shallow gasps. An ache grows in your nape.Â
The swell of panic, fear, in your eyes makes him hum. But there's nothing echoing back. An absence of light in the deep, placid pits. It looks like still water. A stagnant lake.Â
It's unnerving how dispassionately expressive his eyes are. Wild, wild. Vats of ink. Pools of obsidian. Ringed in red-lined ivory. Long, ashen lashes dusting over the smears of charcoal under his eyes. Sleepless nights, maybe. Fatigue. The corners are tattooed with coal, leaving behind a thumbprint in the crease.Â
But empty. Barren. No light.
Like black holes. Eating everything around it. Devouring all that gets too close, but giving nothing in return except a bottomless crater in the bruised-plum nebulous of space around it.Â
You're not sure you like it. You can't look away.Â
But in staring back so hard (getting pulled in deeper and deeper), you catch the twitch in his left eye. A shallow spasm. It throws off the symmetry when he blinks, one eye a sliver of a second behind. Desynchronized in a way that seems soâ
Unlike him.Â
Disjointed.Â
You blink in response. Perfectly synchronous.Â
His lid twitches again. Just once. Brief. Pale, pink eyelids drop, unveiling a nebula of indigo veins on the smooth, thin surface as they roll down to half-mast over his eyes, now narrowed slightly in contemplation. Thought.Â
Whatever is happening in his head can't be good. It causes a ripple over the lake. Little rings rebound outwards.Â
He looks away first. A quick slide of his eyes to the corners, glancing out of the passenger side window. Whatever catches his attention is unknown to you. The anchor on his hand around your throat keeps you still. Immovable.
(Every instinct in your body compels you not to look away from him because nothing outside could ever be scarier, more dangerous, than him.)
A second later, he breathes in through his nose. The fabric of his mask is pulled into his nostrils from the force, forming little black holes under the crooked arch.Â
You hadn't really given much thought to his appearance outside of big, massive. But there's a strange asymmetry to the slopes and valleys beneath the balaclava. Trying to map his face, fill in the blanks with just black cloth and vague, lopsided outlines, is impossible. There are too many gaps. Too many missing pieces. You can only wonder, then, what he looks like under it.Â
Monstrous, you hope.Â
It's just a coincidence that he looks at you the moment the thought passes, but you flinch like a naughty child getting caught doing something you shouldn't when the heavy, dour weight of his impenetrable stare is levelled at you once more. Your heart stutters. It's loud in your ears. In the truck.Â
You wonder if he can hear it just as loudly as you doâ
Another blink, and his gaze flickers down, settling on the gap between your lips, watching the little tremble they make with each shallow hiccup of air you greedily suck in. His head tilts to the side, eyes never leaving your mouth even as he leans down, masked lips brushing over the beading sweat gathering on your hairline.Â
It's a brief touch. A taste. You tremble when he pulls back, fingers tightening around your flesh.Â
His eyes are lavascapes. Â
âAre you, birdie?âÂ
You almost forget what he's asking. The conversation hidden between the scant beats it took for him to measure your worth with the blistering intensity of his stare, and the tumult of your feelings still looping around each other in your belly. Knotting up tight into a ball. There's fear, of course there is.Â
But the restâ
You'd rather not think about.Â
The grip on your throat eases just enough for you to shake your head no to whatever he is asking. Doing anything funny, you think, scrambling at the tangle of memories flipping past, trying to connect the pieces to a puzzle you've already forgotten.Â
It must be the right response. Or maybe it's another question like before, a test where thereâs no right answer.Â
Run, stay.Â
Smart and stupid.Â
But it seems to appease himâmarginally. His eyes crease. Tightening. His other hand folds over your throat, sliding until his palms kiss the sides of your neck in a near-perfect symmetry.Â
Something frissons across the blank, placid lake of his expression. Another ripple. A shudder. He leans in for a moment, nose touching the apple of your cheek, and when he breathes in, itâs sharp, reedy. Cold air ghosts over your skin. Long, pale lashes flutter when you swallow.Â
He hums quietly under his breath before peeling back. The flatness to his gaze is back; a cold, impenetrable distance widening like a chasm as he uncoils around you. You almost fall for thisâthis indifference. An icy nonchalance. But you've been eating the minuscule quirks of him just as ravenously as he's been devouring yours.Â
There is something there. A fracture, maybe. A splinter.Â
But what leaks through from the other side isn't anything close to warmth. It'sâ
Hunger.Â
The shift in your throat draws his molten gaze to your neck, still wrapped tight in his firm grip. Your reflection blooms in the vat of black; eyes wide, all white. Pupils narrowed to a pinprick. Mouth slack, corners tugging downward from the pressure of his hand. The tilt of your head. His thumbs press under your chin, pushing you back further until it feels like your neck might breakâ
He stops. Shifts. You puff out a shallow breath.Â
What looks back at you is unremarkable in the murk. A sliver of fear. A slip of unease.
Eye of the beholder, you think when his breath chuffs out shallowly through the mask. When that hunger is ground down to a raw, esoteric fissure hairlining the black of his eyes. The widening expanse of his pupil.Â
You wonder if it's your fear that itches under his skin, dredging up something predatory in his hindbrain. The urge to chase. To bite.Â
But the nearly indiscernible flicker of his gaze has you brushing that idea aside when it snags on the expanse of his hand coiled around your throat. Easily swallowing it whole with just his palms.Â
You're not a small thing, but the indomitable size of him makes you feel insignificant.Â
You think he feels it, too.Â
His fingers flex over your nape, stretching. Pulling. It pushes the flat of his palm into your throat, ridges crushed against your trachea. But you can still breathe. It's shallow. Hoarse. A touch painful. Dizzying in a way that makes you feel like you're on a rollercoaster. A teacup ride that just spins and spins and spinsâ
The gap closes. A sliver of air snakes down your throat. Muscles flexing, shifting. Struggling to swallow around the pinch of his hand. A harrowing task when you feel the gloved fingers link to the first, then the second knuckle, tying together in a too-tight, impossible, noose around your neck. Thumbs overlap. Fingers slide into place. It forms a chain of his hands with no gaps between them. Not a single sliver of skin shows from under the leather of his gloves.Â
He makes a sound when they meetâa nasal groan in the back of his throat, mouth clenched shut so the air has no choice but to tear through his nose. It's raw. Fractured. The devastating moan of a tiger nuzzling at its meal.Â
Your vision blurs. A black fog presses into the edges, seeping over the arch of your peripherals. Dripping down slowly over the hazy smear of the man. The way the ochre sun peeks over the angular roof of the accountant's office illuminates his back and casts swaths of shadows over his front. Drenching him in murk.Â
Despite the flickering darkness shuttering over your sight, you don't blink. Even as the tears prickle at your eyes, they stay open. Fixed on him. Black holes, you think, watching as the fever marbling those obsidian pools recedes. Cools.Â
He makes that noise again. Softer this time. A purr from deep in his chest. A breath. And then he peels back. His hands go slack. His shoulders slumping back into the lax, easy spread from before as you gasp hard, nearly choking on the flood of air that roars down your throat.Â
Your cheeks feel hot for a moment, and then cold. Icy. You don't have to touch them to know that you're crying. That the deluge clinging to your lashline spilt over, dripping messily to the collar of your shirt.Â
The placid lake is back. In the stillness, you heave. Mouth hanging open, chin quivering. His thumb lifts, slides over the curve of your chin. You don't feel it. Numbed, maybe, by the brief kiss of hypoxia. But you see it. Watch as he slides it up to the jut of your lower lip, the black, angular tip tickling over your skin. He follows the seam between skin and lip, tracing it to the corner of your mouth. It's slick. Drool pools in the crease, dribbles over the top of his finger. His eyes drop when he mops it up, catching it on the pad.Â
He makes another noise. An arid rasp bubbling between the soft tissue behind the roof of his mouth and the back of his tongue. It's ugly. The shiver you try to fight back slinks through.Â
His hand peels away from your neck, movements lax. Slow. The unwinding gait of an idling tiger in no real rush, no hurry, because there's nothing in the frigid Arctic that can touch him.Â
You watch him with flared eyes as he brings his thumb to his clothed mouth, and rubs your spit into the fabric of his mask.Â
His eyes don't break away from yours once.Â
Your spit doesn't stand out against the black of balaclava, but the idea of it burns through you. Throwing you headfirst into a dazed stupor. Dizzy. Confused.Â
Satisfied with whatever it was supposed to mean, he clambers out of the truck before coming around to your side. Distantly, you're sure this is what he meant by funny ideas when he passes the headlight, head straight and eyes gliding around the empty street. An opening to run. You know where you are. It would be easy to flee. Hide in the construction zone just ahead, tucking yourself into the tightest corner you can find until help arrives.Â
Help, though.Â
Officer, please. I got caught selling meth in the mob's territory and now they're going to skin me alive. Please hurryâ
Right.Â
They'd rather help bury your body than get in the way of the mafia. Gangland violence isn't their concern unless it tumbles out into the street. Fat wallets keep even the most compassionate person quiet. Willing to turn a blind eye.Â
You'd be thrown in a cell. Or dropped off at their doorstep.Â
Either wayâ
You won't be coming back alive.Â
There's nothing to steel, harden, when he pulls the door open, your nerves long since ground down to fine powder. Nothing to fight against, either. He hauls you out of the truck, hands firm on your skin. Bursting blood vessels easily between his fingers. Barely any effort at all to crack your bones.Â
The moment in the car seems miles away when he pulls you in front of him, hand curling over your nape. Any flicker of humanity rendered out when he pinches you tight and shoves you forward. Dragging you back to the butcher shop by the scruff of your neck, leading you down a narrow set of stairs to the basement where pale white carcasses hang from hooks on the ceiling. He laughs when you tense. When your heels dig into the brown-stained linoleum.Â
Ain't gonna hang you, he mocks, fingers dipping punishingly into the sides of your neck. âNot yet, anywayââ
It brings little comfort when he drags you to a room in the back, kicking open the door with the toe of his boot before pushing you inside with a nudge against your nape.Â
It's dark. Walls covered in stains; mould, mildew. Something you hope is just rust. A single mattress is shoved into the corner; sheets stained with sweat and grime. Tinged a pale brown. Two pillows sit at the top, lopsided and matted with use. Threadbare. A twisted, black heap of fabric sits at the bottom. Wisps of cotton poke out from the cigarette burns.Â
A pair of muddy, black boots sit against the wall at the end of the bed. A basket of clothesâjeans, black shirts, black sweatersâis piled on the wall across from the door.Â
The room smells of stale sweat and old cigarettes.Â
You don't want to be here. The thought is abrupt. Immediate. Unease prickles along your nape, warmed and damp under his gloved palm. Between the look of the roomâthe floors stained the same suspicious brown, the rumpled bed in a cornerâand the smell, you know this is not a place you want to stay. To be trapped inside with a man cut from Everest; whose hands are more dangerous than the sharp end of a knife.Â
He must feel the tension brimming beneath your skin; the spark of adrenaline surging through your veins. The clamp of his hand on your nape digs in tighter. Holding firm.Â
A breath tumbles out, thickening with mockery. âLike I said,â he leans down, pressing the mountainous width of his chest into your spine. The accentuation in your size difference, how big he is in comparison to you, makes you feel like prey. Small. Brittle, thin. He eats you whole. Spares nothing for later. âI wouldn't do that if I were you.âÂ
Another nudge and you're pushed further into the room. He leans away, foot shoving back on the door until it snaps shut with a noise that cuts through the gossamer that spun around you, bifurcating reality from dream. The haze is wafted away, and all that remains is a barren room with a lumpy mattress, the smeared stain of rotten blood coagulating on the floor, and his body boxing you in. No escape.Â
The rumble of his chest shakes loose the cobwebs spooling across your thoughts. A brush of humid air ghosts along the line of your jaw, dampening the skin below your ear as he leans in close, too close, and purrs:Â
âGo on now. Strip for me.âÂ
Each scrap of clothing you slowly roll off of your body is exchanged for a slip of information about himâwho he is (Simon Riley, the name rumbled through the split between his teeth; a low, brassy purr as his eyes gleam in the dark, drilling into the expanse of skin unveiled to him)âand what he wantsâ
Nothing, he tells you, lifting one massive shoulder up in a half-hearted shrug. Jusâ what's owed to me, pet. For stickinâ my neck out fâyou.Â
You don't think he did. Not really. But you're harshly reminded of the unsubtle threat. The gun balanced on his massive thigh. So wide, so big, it seems to make it look smaller in comparison. Tiny. A toy.Â
Child's play.Â
It's made worse, somehow, as he lounges. Sprawls out on the bed, legs spread, pulling taut on the jeans that stretch around the thickness of his upper thigh, bunching around his calves in a half-tuck inside his black boots. Arms flexing. Folded over his broad chest. He rolled the sleeves of his black shirt up to his elbow, showing off an impressive tapestry of harsh, faded black ink. Crisscrossing lines. All asymmetrical. Guns, barbed wire. A bullet with a wide, toothy grinâ
All of it knits together; woven into a tangled mass of muscle. Of man, hidden under scar tissue. Rope burns on his wrists cut so deep that the skin is permanently dented in. More cigarette burns hidden inside the mess of ink. Jagged linesâfrom a knife, maybe; bullet wounds.Â
His skin tells stories of a terrible life. Ink spills over the worst of them, but they're visible under the fading charcoal. A series of burnsâacid, fire, chemicalâand raw, torn skin. He looks like he's been mauled. Pressed into the cold metal of a wood chipper until chunks of flesh were taken out. But even with these deep gouges, craters of missing tissue, he's big. Bulky. Softâlike a tiger. Predatory muscle tucked away under a thick layer of fatty tissue.Â
The pillowed pouch of his belly, the softness around his bicepsâ
It belies the danger underneath. The steel.Â
But as scary as it is, it has nothing on his eyes.Â
Glinting in the dim room. Dark pools of obsidian that follow each movement with an almost clinical keenness. Sharpened to a razor's edge.Â
They might be pretty, you think, if they weren't so intense. So liquid. His eyes gleam like wet ink, languidly rolling along his lashline as you clumsily shed your jacket, your blouse. Shoes, socks. Pants. Until you're in nothing but your panties.
Swallowing around the influx of panic that flutters like little birds beating their wings against the soft walls of your throat, you slip your fingers into the hem, now or never, andâ
And you hesitate.Â
There's a difference between undressing willingly and doing so to save your life. It should spurn you onâsurvive, survive, surviveâbut you freeze at the apex. The summit is within reach.Â
You know what happens when you climb it. Cross over the invisible threshold.Â
What you've been trying to ignore this whole time, ever since he shoved you into the room with a huff, taking his perch on the edge of the bed, legs spread wide, but in such a terrifying state of vulnerability, nearly nude, you can't any longer. Can't avert your gaze to the stained linoleum in a thinly veiled effort to keep from glancing at the thickening bulge lying prone against his thigh.Â
Hisâ
Well.Â
You knew what he wanted when he grabbed your face in his hand, squeezing your cheeks until your lips pursed, puckered for him to run his finger along the inseam. Prying your teeth apart. Rubbing his finger over your tongue, eyes darkâfull; black holes pulling, tugging you in, dragging you closer to the event horizon framed in a ring of arsenicâand locked on to the sight of his gloved knuckle disappearing into your mouth. Wanting. Hungry.Â
You knew. And nowâ
Committing to it is legions above what youâre mentally prepared for. Nausea brims, churns your stomach. Unease curdling inside of you like rotten milk.Â
You donât want this. But you donât have a choice, do you?
That notion, the idea, prickles along your nape, raising the fine, peach-fuzz there until it stands on end.Â
You freeze. Movements still as every muscle in your body tenses. Coils. You can't do it. Can'tâ
A huff is dragged out of his chest as he sits up, knocking the gun carelessly to the mattress. His eyes daggering, sharpening into needlepoints, as he stares at you.Â
âGotta do everything fâmyself, do I?âÂ
A grunt and heâs up. Pulling himself to his feet with nothing but the flex of his abdominal muscles.Â
There's no reprieve. Not a moment graced to gather your bearings before he crosses the distance between you. Once a comfort, a chasm, now conquered in a single stride. Â
The tips of his gloves are cold when they brush over your skin, sliding down the slope of your waist until they meet the hem of your panties. The last piece of modesty you haveâ
But he doesn't wait.
You're aware that this isn't a non-consensual thriller where the lead looms over the hapless love interest, eyes blazing with passion and need. That each interaction is drenched in a thick, palpable tension tethering the two together. Urges coalescing. Threads pulling taut, magnetic, dragging them closer and closer to the brink until they tumble over.Â
This is reality. And he doesn't stare into your eyes with an all-consuming desire as he slowly removes that last scrap of fabric keeping him from devouring you. No.Â
His skin-warmed fingers push under the elastic band with a rough shove, curling into the fabric until it tightens across your pelvis and thighs, and then he huffs, annoyed, and pulls. Pullsâ
Until something gives.Â
The lace yields to the tension in his flexing bicep, and scrapes over your skin as it rips apart in his hand, threads snapping. Popping.Â
It hurts. Stings. You hiss, but the noise is ignored when he peels the ruined scrap of fabric from your legs, shoving it into his back pocket with a grunt of satisfaction. He looks back to you, eyes rippling like the dark, ink-black surface of a lake during nightfall, and coos, mocking and meanâ
âNot sâhard, was it?â
He leans closer to you, a hand skimming up your spine before his fingers curl around your nape, keeping you still for just a breath before he pulls you into him with too much force. Your hands lift, palms slapping against his thick stomach when the movement nearly topples you over and threatens to break your nose on his chest.
âMakinâ me do all the work when yâsupposed tâbe payinâ me back? Ain't very nice oâyou, is it?â
He touches you like he's taking stock of your worth. Grabbing a heavy, rough palmful of your beast in his hand, squeezing. Testing the weight, the softness, how supple you were between his fingers like he might with a piece of fruit. Meat. Prodding into the flesh, feeling the ripeness there. Gauging whether or not it was a piece he wanted to keep.Â
It's demeaning. Humiliating. He treats you like cattle; presses into the elasticity of your muscle, examines every inch of your skin for blemishes. Scouring for imperfections. There's no softness in the way he grabs handfuls of your bodyâsqueezing your breasts, pushing them together, rolling your nipples between his thumb and forefinger; pinching your belly, your sides, your waist; curling his fingers under your thigh, lifting it until it hitches over his waist, cunt exposed and pressed tight to the bulge trapped in his jeans. Your ass is handled rougher than the rest. Each cheek sitting in a hand, squeezed and punched and spread embarrassingly wide.Â
He ruts into you as he does it. Pushes the thick, fat length of him into your belly, rolling his hips against you with a heavy, ragged puff of air.Â
He feels big.Â
Everywhere, of courseâitâs not so much his height, but the absurd width of him that really digs into your hindbrain, crossing all those intricate wires until they're tangled up, knotted together. Seeing his thigh, the same scale as a tree truck, slotting between yoursâa mere branch by comparisonâmakes your belly flop. Turn over itself.
The muddled wires spark. Heat pools between your hips.
He could crush your head between them like a bear pushing its paw down on a watermelon.Â
It's fear and heat.Â
The two work in tandem, forming a seamless cohesion, as they flit down your spine, brimming up the urge to sink to your knees, the need to roll over and show your belly. A paradoxical desire to both run and be chased.Â
You're not sure if he's tendering your meat to eat later or if this is the usual type of foreplay he engages in, but once satisfied you're softened up enough for him, he shoves his fingers between your thighs with an abrasive hum that reverberates through his belly, tickling your palms.Â
âTired oâwaitinâ,â is what he says when your head jerks up, eyes widening in shock. Terror. Horror. âDon't look so surprised,â he huffs, dryly. Voice a rough scrap over your cheek. âWhat'd yâthink was gonna âappen?â
âWaitââ but he doesn't.Â
His fingers twist, pushing through your folds to graze your clit. It isn't gentle. It's sudden, quick. You gasp more from shock than pleasure; the rough slide of leather feels strange on your flesh, and your head is too muddled to separate fear from bliss. Â
Despite that, your body heats. Reacts to his touch. Your lower lip wobbles. You bite back another sound that crawls up your throat when his knuckle catches on your clit again, the pressure just shy of too much.Â
The burn, the fever, melts the unease. Shallow gasps spill out. Your cunt clenches, fluttering around nothingâthrobbing, growing sticky, slick; achy and emptyâwhen he starts to glide his digit between your folds. Little sawing motions drag each groove and stitch of his gloves over your pebbled clit, each thrust of his hand between your thighs making heat pool between your hips. It's done so clinically, so detached, like his hand rubbing over your leaking pussy was nothing to him. An action to get done, a task to complete.Â
It's the shame of that, the embarrassment, that makes you want to weep. Your fingers dig into his chest, nails pulling uncomfortably on the pleated bumps of his jacket as you grip the fabric right between your fists, clinging to him like a newborn fawnâall wet-nosed, teary-eyed; knobbly knees threatening to buck.Â
âSâstopââ you mewl when the monotonous rhythm melts into something harder, more intense. Heart thudding in your chest, heat burning you up as he turns his hand, palm up, between your sticky, shaking thighs. He rubs his hand back and forth, curling his middle finger up when he passes your hole, tip pushing against your leaking rim.Â
The friction aches. The stretch stings. The leather feels strange, foreign when it pries your folds apart and dips inside of you.Â
You don't like it. It's too muchâ
He makes a soundâa tutâwhen you pull away from him, standing on the tips of your toes until the blunt curve of his finger slides out of you. He sucks his teeth in a mockery of disappointment before digging his fingers, hard, into the sides of your neck. A warning. You whine. Whimperâ
It goes unheeded. And when you press your thighs tight together, shivering at the slip-slide of your skin rubbing against each other, he growls. The noise is inhuman. Animalistic.Â
Your act of deviance comes with a swift, bruising punishment.Â
His fingers tighten on your neck once again. A warning squeeze as he reaches down with his other hand, grabbing your hip. It keeps you still, immobile, as he bullies his boot between your feet, kicking your legs apart. You're not expecting it. When you stumble, he huffs in amusement. Can't hold yourself up? Want me that bad, huh? Needy fuckin' thing, ain't you?
You don't get a chance to respond. His palm splays wide over your hip, leather creaking as he flexes, stretching his fingers out, tapping some soundless beat out against your skin. Touching you like he's owed the privilege. The right. And in many waysâ
Goâ a problem, you anâ I
âhe does.Â
Brute strength, and an unmatched, almost laughable, dearth in your physicality ensures that he has the upper handâeven without the gun he left on the mattress; darker and flat, a full matte compared to what you were expecting.Â
(They're always so shiny in movies, aren't they?)
The threat of itâdull as it might beâroots you to the spot as he slides his hand down, thumb brushing over your belly button, dipping in; pressing until your stomach starts to acheâ
It peels away when the whine wells up, sloping down, down. Teases your mound with the tips of his fingers, gentle swipes along the sensitive seam of your belly and pelvis, the sensation is an odd tickle that pulls at your navel, pulses at the apex of your thighs. You mewlâa slow, soft thing that barely makes it out from between your teethâand he lets his hand drop. Palm flat against the soft flesh of your mons, fingers reaching, spreading, until they curl over your folds. Index and ring finger tucked tight into the hollow bend of your pelvis and thigh. The tip of his middle rubs gentle strokes over the skin above your clit. It's a whisper of pleasure. The idea of a touch.Â
Mindless, your hips flit, following his handâ
âNeedy.âÂ
It cows you. Douses you in icy shame. There's barely any mockery in his even, observant tone, but you feel it unfurl over your shoulders all the same.Â
He doesn't give you a moment to think, to let the ripples of humiliation take over, forcing you to pull away, hide. His fingers trail over your hood, the pebble of your clit. The sensation, the cool undertone in the leather of his glove, is unlike anything you'd felt before. The thick stitches in the fabric catch on your flesh, nerve endings flaring in pleasure. Heat blooms in your belly.Â
It feels good.Â
You gasp, head tipping back. His hand winds around your waist when your knees buckle, catching you with a rasping huffâ
âFeelinâ good, ain't you?â He pulls you tight to his chest, finger rubbing circles around your throbbing clit. Your cunt clenches, empty, and you whine, needing something more. Something to fill the ache inside of youâ
His finger slips. Slides easily between your folds, parting your lips around the thick of him until he reaches your drenched hole. The sounds it makes when he taps his finger against your fluttering core makes your toes curl. Has heat blistering over your cheeks, down the slope of your neck.Â
It makes him groan. The low growl makes you throb, clenching in needy little pulls, pulses, as his finger dips into the slick dripping out of you.Â
âSuckinâ me in,â he grunts, and pushes his finger inside, thrusting up to the last knuckle. Palm tapping against your folds as his index and ring finger close to give him more room to sink deeper into you. The messy, slick squelch is loud, rolling over the mewling gasps that tumble from your lips.Â
Heat floods your belly at the belly-deep groans he lets out when you squeeze around him.Â
âStranglinâ my fuckinâ finger, birdieââÂ
He leans down, knocking his forehead against the side of your face. It's more intimate than you were expecting. Jarring. The proximity plays a twisted game inside your headâthe urge to run, to roll over coalescing into a paralyzing tailspin. Rooting you to the ground when the warm, damp knit of his mask grazes your cheek.Â
The intimacy of his head on yours is eclipsed when you can feel the shape of his mouth through the fabric.Â
It's softer than you expected. A plush, fleshy give when he presses his lips against your skin. Andâ
A gap.
On the side of his mouth, there's a gouge. A pockmark. You feel the gap, the absence, of his flesh when he rolls it over your cheekbone. You try to read the asymmetry of his faceâmapping all of these misshapen parts; his mauled lips, the crooked nose that digs into your skin and leaves behind a tacky smear of condescension when he breathes out through his nostrils in a heavy puff of airâand convince yourself that you're doing it so you can bring these patchwork pieces to the police later.Â
Survival, you think, your head tilting back as he noses down your neck, tickling along your skin.Â
(And when your cunt flutters around the rough, thick drag of his finger petting along your walls, you add: a bodily reaction. That's all it is.)
He takes another lungful of your scent before he rocks back on his heels, pulling away from you. Straightening up. Looming above you once more.Â
âNowââ
He pulls his finger out of you slowly and you try not to whimper at the empty feeling that brims up. The way your hips rock toward him, seeking and eager. Wanting.
Needy, just like he said.Â
Just a bodily reactionâ
He holds his hand up to the dim light flickering over his head, fingers spreading apart as he takes in the glossy shine of his middle finger.Â
The gleam of it makes your ears feel hot. Shame pools in your belly as he makes another noiseâa groan, deep and low, in the back of his throat. Eyes darkening as his pupils bloom, eclipsing his irises in an endless pool of black. They flicker toward you, listing half-mast in a way to leonine, so predatory, that it shudders through your bones. Run, runâ
His hand flexes around your waist when you twitch. A warning. A threat. You tremble when he leans in, masked lips brushing over your cheek once more. Breath ghosting through the fabric, tickling the inside of your ear.Â
He smells of war. Of fire and brimstone. Napalm and nitroglycerine. You want to close your eyes, look away, but you can't. His proximity alone roots you to the spot. Turns you into a prey animal, frozen on instinct alone as he prowls around, creeping closer. Maw stretching wide, drooling dripping off razor-sharp caninesâ
âLet's see if yâworth all the trouble.âÂ
âand he bites.
Knocks his palm into your sternum, roughly shoving you down on the mattress.
His hands fall to the button of his jeans. âReady?â He asks, but doesn't seem to care about your answer. Opts, instead, to fall to his knee beside you. It pulls on his zipper, tugs it all the way down with a sharp, metallic sound that cuts through the stagnant air as each ring of teeth is pried apart.Â
You can't help it. You look. Dragged there by something primal, magneticâthe morbid curiosity to see the monster for yourself as it tries to take a bite.Â
And almost immediately, you wish you hadn't.Â
The spread of pale skin, dark curls jutting out from the split of his jeans, makes everything feel more real, and moving fast. Whiplash quick. Happening in a blink:
The shift of fabric as he pulls the mask up over his lips, letting rest on the crooked bridge of his nose. A flash of his mouth, mangled. Mauled. Full of ugly, pale pink scars. A gap where tissue once knit his upper lip together. The bite of crooked teeth as he brings the sticky, wet tip of his glove to his mouth, sinking in. Pulling. Tugging. The roll of skinâa rose, a gun, a skullâall encased in barbed wire; thick rivers of blue-green veins.Â
Another pull and it's free. Dangling between his teeth for a moment as he reaches up and shoves the jacket off his shoulders. Rolling and thick. Wide. A broad chest. Soft belly. There's an inch of flesh around the expanse of himâbiceps, thighs, calves, chest, stomach, shouldersâbut it's a buffer for the corded, streamlined muscle beneath. A layer of fatty tissue.Â
Like a tiger, hiding its dizzying musculature beneath a thick, loose pelt.Â
When he moves, it flexes. His shoulders roll; muscles bunching together, pulling taut under soft skin. The jacket slides off. Falls to the ground behind the mattress. Forgotten, discarded. The glove is next to go. Dropping from between his teeth, landing just beside your ankle with a muted thud.Â
He follows after it. Ink spilling over his lashline as his eyes drop, staring at the roll of his skin tucked on the outside of your thigh. Trailing up to your knee. Your hip. The split of your cunt beneath your other leg; knee tucked to your chest.Â
A flash of something, a flicker, is the only warning you get before the back of his hand is nudging the glove off of your skin, replacing it with the rough, calloused grip of his palm.Â
You jerk at his touch, flinching backâ
He's intimidating above you like this. Leaning back on his haunches but still as tall as you are standing up. The sheer absurdity of his heightâhis widthâis dizzying. Gives you vertigo when you look up.Â
His throat shifts when you move. A swallow. Coarse stubble grows down the column of his neck, dusting over his lower jaw, chin. The rest is swallowed by the balaclava bunched around his crooked nose.Â
He's notâ
He's not handsome.Â
A smattering of crisscrossing scars, burns, skin pocked and gouged out in deep pockets along his fleshâthe slide of a knife carving away at him, you think; digging down to his marrowâall take away from any sense of modern attractiveness you might feel for him with his broad, jagged nose and full lips.Â
But there's something rugged about him. Untamed. Wild. Appealing in a dangerous way.Â
You don't know if you would have let this happen under different circumstances. If this minacious beauty of his would have worked on you enough to want it outside of this awful, almost unfathomable trade.Â
He's too big. Wouldn't even fit inside of your houseâ
The graze of his thumb on your angle knocks the thought loose, and you're dragged back to the heat of his hand. Rough and coarse; palms slightly damp from the glove. It tugs on your flesh as he draws it up, a rubbery sort of pain as it catches on the soft, dry skin of your ankle. Your shin.Â
He follows behind a second later, pulling himself into the mattress with a huff, knees shuffling forward as he crawls over you. The jostling rocks your body. Makes your breasts shake as he lumbers on the bed, hand still sliding up, up, until his fingers curl over the bend of your knee.Â
The bed dips under his weight. Your body sagging, rolling into the divot beneath his knees. Tucked under him. Loomed over. He stares down at you through the cutout of his mask, eyes liquid in the gloam. Pools of melting, dripping obsidian. Black holes. Event horizonâ
You look away before it drags you in. Submissive. Softened under the harsh burn of his flat, wide stare. He chuffs when your nose brushes over the thin skin of his wrist, mouth sliding over the thick, pulsing vein stretching down from his inner arm and curling into the bend of his hand. Your lips purse, and he makes that noise again.Â
Quietly amused, andâ
He shuffles forward until the backs of your thighs are pulled over his, spread out on his lap. Bare. Open to him.Â
And he looks.Â
And looks.Â
Hungry, you think. Quietly amused and hungryâ
The notion is wrenched out of your head when he shifts his weight. Watches the folds of your pussy open for him as he pulls your knees wider apart, head dropping between his massive shoulders, gaze drilling into the split of your thighs. Gasping at the sting, the sudden stretch, does little to deter him from shoving your leg down until the outside of your knee touches the bed. Muscles straining. Pinching. It hurts; hipbones twinging in agony.Â
But the embarrassment burning through you singes all the pain.Â
You're spread open under him. Bare. Legs tangled around his waist, stretched wide around the width of him. Ankles knocking into the hard plains of his lower back each time he shifts.Â
âFuckinâ hellââ he grunts. Snarls. The word ripped up from the back of his throat, forced through the twisting channels of his nose. Nasal and ugly when it scrapes out between his teeth. âGonna ruin this pretty pussy, birdie.â
It's a threat. A promise. You twist, mouthing your protests into the warm skin of his wrist.Â
There's something about his voiceâthat airy, brassy toneâthat strikes a chord deep inside you. Makes heat pool between your thighs, leaking out in a syrupy messâ
His hand peels away from your knee, sliding down your sticky, damp inner thigh until his knuckles graze the sensitive slip of skin sitting between your outer lip and hip. That ticklish, belly-fluttering sensation blooms in your groin as he rubs his scarred knuckles over the crease, catching the slick gathered there on his thick, meaty thumb.Â
âFuckinâ soaked,â he groans, shifting his fingers until they cover the whole of your cunt, cradling you in his hand. He holds you like that for a beat, eyes locked on the way you're swallowed up by the broad stretch of his palm.Â
The rough drag of his skin over your folds feels good. An all-encompassing heat spreads over your tender flesh from the curve of your ass to the bump of your mons where his middle finger rests, almost touching the strip of skin between your loins and your belly. Held in his grasp. Cradled in his palm.Â
Your thighs twitch. A shallow jerk as your knees try to bend over his hand, but you can't. With his thumb and pinkie tucking into each crease between your outer lip and leg, it keeps you from closing your legs. Hinged by the wide, flat cup of his palm.Â
And it shouldn't bludgeon through you the way it does. All heat. All want. Need. A growing ache you can't think around.Â
(bodily reaction, you think even as the image of his handâbig with thick fingers, scarred knuckles; streaks of faded, ashy ink etched into milky, veined skinâlaying over your pussy, swallowing it whole, sears into your mindâ)
âCan feel your little cunt,â he grunts, feeling the pulse, the little throbbing pulls of your muscles as they twitch at the sight. The feeling. Clenching down around nothing. âGreedy little thing, ain't you, birdie?â
Anger paints his words as he rasps them out. A teeth gnashing, jaw clenching frustration that needles into the scorn, the fury, forced out between the tight seam of his crooked teeth.Â
You don't understand it. Can't, maybe.Â
But it's tucked away as quickly as it appeared, shifting into an ugly, mocking derision. Dry. Acerbic. His teeth flash, lip pulling upward in a sneerâa snarlâbefore he hums, sliding his hand down. The drag of his damp, rough fingers over your swollen folds has your knees falling open wider around his thick thighs, baring yourself willingly to him.Â
Want it bad, don't you? He mocks, and the sound of his voice alone has your pussy clenching tight, belly fluttering around the abrasive scrape of his tone. Brassy and full. Gritty. You whine, hips inching upâ
His hand peels off of your slit. The rush of cold air drags another whimper out of you, hips pushing up to chase the heady, molten feeling of his skin on yours. And he's amused by itâa laugh echoes out, crackling in the hollow of his throat at your desperationâbut you're too achy, too hot, to feel the simmer of humiliation nipping the apples of your cheeks.Â
He's not even making a real effort to pleasure you, to make you feel good, and yetâ
Your hips twitch toward him in needy, mewling cants; please sits on the tip of your tongue, cradled between your teeth. Slips out on a shaky, breathless gasp when he meets you on the next buck of your hips, palm slapping over your wet slit.Â
The crack echoes through the room. Rough, dry skin on soaked flesh.Â
And it shocks you more than it hurts. The sting is there, of course, but it's just an afterthought to astonishment. An eye-widening disbelief masking the way your cunt smarts, throbbing from the slap. Nerves muffled behind the burn in your eyes, the searing heat pooling in your sinuses.Â
Wrenched open, unblinking as you stare up at him, your eyes begin to sting, to water. You blink, and feel something hot trickle down your cheek. A tear. His eyes snap to it. Pupils narrowing to a pinprick as he watches it slide down your face, little droplets clinging to your jaw.Â
âPoor baby,â he mocks, tilting his head as he tracks the teardrop. âBetter behave.âÂ
Behave. Like he's admonishing a child and not an adult.Â
It morphs; rots. Becomes yet another thing you shouldn't feel feverish over. The slick, sticky feeling grows between your thighs as your cunt flutters at the humiliation of it all.Â
And deeperâmaybeâthe bastardized sense of careâ
(Punishment is affection in its own, special (awful) way and you've been aching for something just like it, haven't youâ)
It's pushed down. Swallowed. And you know in the back of your head that if you keep eating these feelings, you're going to be sick. But you can't stop. Barely breathe around the idea of them sometimesâ
âThaâsâit,â he coos like he knows. Sees them bright and burning behind your irises. Little flickers of need, a smouldering want that you'll never grasp at yourself.Â
So he gives it to you.Â
The rough slide of his hand, all scarred and dry and calloused, scrapes over your slit once more. A full, flat stroke upward until your clit bumps into the ridge of his palm. Then down, downâ
His fingers spread. Ring and index prying your folds apart as he pushes up once more, opening your seam to slip his middle finger through the slick, sticky mess that drips out of your burning cunt.Â
âGonna be good fâme?âÂ
The slide of his fingers drags the tip up to the bump of your clit. You stare down at it, fixed on the jut of his ink-black knuckles threading through your folds. The crease of his nail as he slips his fingers up higher, pad pushing over your pebbled clit. They're dirty. Grey-black under his nails. Congealed with dirt. Blood, maybe.Â
Your stomach churns even as your hips lift. Eager, searching. Hating yourself each second of it. It's gross. Disgusting.Â
You want his dirty, thick fingers inside of youâ
âWhen I ask a questionââ the tip circles over your clit. A shallow roll that pools heat between your thighs. âI expect an answer.âÂ
âYâyes,â you stammer out, hips flexing against his hand. Seeking more of that white-hot bloom of pleasure he brings with each pass of his finger.Â
âGood girlââ and you hate how it burns you up from the inside out. âWasn't sâhard, was it?â
The retort is bitten back with the slow swipe of his finger drawing tight, small circles around your clit. His fingers are rough, scarred. Too dry. The abrasive drag over your soft sensitive flesh makes you whineâa drawn-out whimper nestled between clenched teeth.Â
It's too much.Â
Too harsh. Too sharp.
He rolls your clit under the pads of his fingers in jerking half-circles. Puts too much pressure on the bundle of nerves than you ever wouldâyour touches are always soft, sickeningly sweet; gentling your flesh until you cumâand the sting, the burn, of it makes your toes curl. Body burn.Â
It's good.Â
And that's the problem.Â
It shouldn't be. His touch shouldn't make you so wet, growing slick and sticky between your spread thighs, bare to his hungry, prying gaze. Shouldn't make you moan. Hips twitching with each stroke of his fingersâ
And then he peels away from you, but the time to mourn the loss of his touch, the fear of losing this trembling ember pleasure, is snuffed out when he presses his wet, slick fingers against the inside of your knee. The touch is intentional. Insistent. He makes an impatient noise in the back of his throat before pushing it down to the mattress. The twinge of pain swallowed up as quickly as it forms when he drops to his elbows between your thighs, forearms curling under your legs, and tugs you sharply into him.Â
Heat floods your belly when the backs of your thighs press tight to his broad, muscular shoulders, but it's nothing compared to the sight of him on his knees between your legs. It's so obscene you nearly weepâ
And then he leans down and licks a long, broad swipe of his tongue over your cunt.Â
You hadn't expected it, maybe. His mouth on your pussy, his broken, jagged lips sealing over your pebbled clit. Going down on you seemed too intimate for what he was after. His end goal. It does nothing for him at allâ
You realise your mistake when he dips his tongue into your hole and his hips jerk forward. Unconscious. Eager. Seeking. The shifting drags his jeans down his hips, and his cock slips free.Â
Most of the cocks you've seenâin porn, pictures, artâjut out from the person's groin. standing at attention, the nasty comments used to say. Jokes whispered on the playground. But his falls. Droops down between big, folded thighs. Skin marbled in shades of red, peach. Deep gouges dot his upper thighs, some sinking deep enough to reach bone. More scar tissue than flesh.Â
âthan man.
It looks raw. Fresh. Some injuries not too dissimilar to the Wagyu hanging in the front of the storeroom, on display and oh, so out of place in a town where the richest man must be just a hair above the poverty line.Â
On paper, anyway.Â
You swallow, avoiding his gaze as he pauses, dark eyes watching you with his mouth pressed against your seam. Unmoving. Still as a predator between your thighs, cock visible between the bow of his torso, jutting sickeningly from mangled legs as you gawk at this hideous thing that makes several, half-hearted attempts to spring up towards you, spitting clear, milky liquid all over with each jerk. Tugged down by its own weight. Too heavy to fight against gravity like the rest of the cocks you've seen have doneâ
Normal cocks, you amend. Textbook.Â
His is anything but.Â
Ugly, you think again, stomach churning. Roiling. Obscene. An odd thing considering what you're looking at but all too fitting with the way it droops, big, flared head drooling pre-cum all over the bed in long, dangling stands that prickle over your jawsâhalf nauseous, half hungry, too. Saliva pools in your mouth even though the sight of his cock scares you. Fills your belly with dread. Misery.Â
It looks like a bruise. Skin smeared with purples, reds. Patches of pink. Long, thick veins run up from the fattened, full base to the divot of his frenulum. Thick. It hangs low. Drips.Â
He raises slightly and shoves his hand down between his thighs, big hand curling over the fat base of his cock. His grip is tight around himself, and he strokes up, from base to tip. It squeezes more precum from the flushed, fat head, and dribbles between your spread thighs in a thick, pearlescent puddle.Â
It makes your mouth dry. That twinge in your jaws coming back. Festering. You wonder if he'll make you take that thing in your mouth. Choke you on it. Taste his precumâ
âFuck,â he snarls into your cunt, hand jerking over his cock. âKeep lookinâ at my cock like thaâ, birdieââ
You gasp at the rough grunt, the way it seems to tremble through your sensitive flesh. More, though, from the way he sounds. His voice brassy, rough. Unkind, but the words bloom a fresh heat behind your navel.Â
His voice does things to you. Things you're not allowed to like.Â
Those thoughts are knocked from your head when he bows down again, eyes still fixed on you, and seals his wicked mouth over your cunt. It's hard to compare it to anything else other than being devoured. Eaten in the truest sense of the word.Â
His tongue splits down your seam, tip digging into your slick hole. A groan bubbles up at your tasteâthe soft, fluttering clench of your body trying to drag him in deeper. Needing him deeper. A huff of air ghosts over you, dipped in the same derision as earlier but the harsh slap of skin on skin, his hand working furiously over his cock, makes you acutely aware of how much this affects him.Â
âTaste good, birdie,â he grunts, and then sucks your fold into his mouth, laving it with his tongue and teeth until the skin is tender, swollen. âSâfuckinâ goodââ
Your breath catches when the crooked arch of his nose presses taut to your clit. Pleasure twisting in a dizzying pirouette inside your belly, winding tighter and tighterâ
His nose jerks up on your clit. Lips moulded to your seam, you hear him rasp eyes on me, birdie. Don't fuckinâ look awayâ
The rough snarl trembles through your body, sinking its teeth into the coil until it snaps under its jaw. Your knees snap around his head as your release locks your joints tight. His name, Simon, a hoarse cry on your lips. You barely have time to bask in the ripples of pleasure throbbing through your body before he rips away from you with his teeth bared, and his chin wet.Â
âFuckâ!â he snarls again, shoving your knees apart as he lifts his massive body up from between your thighs. âGonna fuck you, birdie. Gotta be inside your tight cuntââ
He towers over you, grinding his cock into the apex of your thighs. The drag of his cockâa little damp from being stuck inside his jeans all day; balmyâagainst the dry skin of your belly makes you shudder. Shivering beneath him as he huffs through the mask. Head bowing. Dipping to look at the way his cock slaps down on you. Cockhead nudging above your belly button, dribbling a small puddle of pre-cum that gets smeared into your skin when he rocks back on his haunches.Â
His hand wraps around the thick base of his cock once more, squeezing tight as he grips himself above you. It makes the head swell, engorged with blood. Thickening in his hand as globs of pre-spend leak out onto your belly. That feeling in your jaws comes backânauseous and wanting.Â
He leans back with a hum. âLike my cock, eh, birdie?âÂ
The crass words bring a fresh bloom of heat simmering in your veins, creeping up your collar. Like doesn't really cover what you feel when you stare at itâhis inked hands running along the long, veined shaftâand the unsettled feeling in the pit of your belly rears when he nudges forward, the weeping head of his cock bumping your mound.Â
It's humiliating how much want floods through you just looking at it. At him. Disgust, dread, desire.Â
You don't answer. Not that you really need toâ
Your silence is loud enough.Â
âDonât worry,â he murmurs, the rasp thick in his throat. âMâgonna give it to you, petââ
And he does just that. Slips the head of his cock down the slope of your mound, letting it graze your clit until you're panting, whining softly for more, and pulls it over your slit until his pre-cum is smeared over your drenched folds. You know exactly what this is even without glimpsing the ugly burn of his possessive desire smouldering in the back of his eyesâownership. Greed. Hunger. It revels in the stain on your skin, from belly to slit; his, all his. Outside and soonâ
In.Â
It shocks a creeping sense of worry into you. âWait, what about a condomââ
He snorts, ugly and caustic. âWhat about âem?â He taunts, and it's flat. Playful.Â
âYou shouldââ
He drags his gaze away from the pearlescent smear of his spend on your folds, your clit, and the even, placid look in that stagnant lake tells you everything you already knew.Â
âI've neverââ you start, wincing at the kernel of fear lacing your hoarse words. âNot without a condomââ
It's the wrong thing to say. Near cataclysmic. He drops his head back with a groan that rumbles out of the slope of his throat, sounding like the rip of a chainsaw.Â
âFirsts for everything,â he purrs, and he nudges your entrance with the bare, weeping tip of his cock.Â
âButââ
His hand lifts, catching your jaw in the too-wide span of his palm. The force makes your teeth clack together.Â
âNeed me to gag you, birdie?âÂ
You swallow. It's not much of a choice. Gagged and fucked raw, orâ
Just fucked raw.Â
No gag. No condom. You fight back a shiver and wish it was all just from fear.Â
âNo,â you murmur, like you have a choice. âNo gag.â
âAnâ?âÂ
âUm. Noâno condom, eitherââ
It's not enough. "What are you gonna let me do to this pussy, birdie?"
You know what he wants. What he's angling for. But there's a line, you think. A delineation between unwilling participant, coercion, and giving into the need that slinks down your spine, and rots inside your belly.
(Being forced to ask for it isn't permission, but what happens when you want it more than your next breath?)
The shame can come later, you think, and feel yourself give in.Â
"Cumâcum inside meâ"
âGood girl, birdie.âÂ
You hate what that does to you. How eagerly your body reacts to the dark possessive curl in his eyes when you do something he likes.Â
He nudges your entrance again, this time with purpose. Intent. A heavy pressure pushing on your rim. Too tight, you think, and the sting of the first inch he feedsâforcesâinto you burns, pulsing behind your navel. His tip isn't even in yet, and it's already too much.Â
You think about telling him so, offering up your mouth instead, but he leans down on his forearms, and catches your lips in a bruising, biting pantomime of a kiss. A blood-soaked parody with more teeth and tongueâsinking into your lips, nipping hard until the skin splits; catching all that spills with his tongue.Â
With his weight pressed against you like this, there's nowhere to run when he cups your throat in his hand, winding the other up above your head, forearm tight on your crown to cage you in. And then he shifts. Bears his hips down on yours until the fat head of his cock pops inside of you.Â
Your squeal is chewed up between his teeth, swallowed down with a rumbling groan.Â
Caught beneath him, trapped, he works himself into you demanding, heavy thrusts. Each inch burns more than the last. A stinging stretch that brings tears to your eyes. It's already too much and it's not even half. Barely even the tip.
âCan'tââ you slur into his wet, demanding mouth. âNo more. IâI can'tââ
The breath rushes out between his teeth. Your watery eyes drop to the divot above his canine. A permanent snarl. A condescending sneer.Â
âYou can,â he says decisively, words ground out from between crooked teeth. He presses them to your cheek, nipping at the skin under your eye. Possessive and wantingâ
(Hungry for something you can't nameâ)
âAnd you will.âÂ
âOr maybe you just don't want to. Can't look at the thunderous need draped over his mangled, battered face without thinking of the rumble in your chest that echos back against his thundering callâ)
Stupid, foolish thingâ
The dark promise of his words isn't a threat until his hand tightens around your neck, nails grazing your skin, and he adds, all of me, birdie as he grinds his hips into yours shallowly. Broad chest expanding with each ragged inhale. Cementing his taunt with a steel edge as you try not to come undone beneath him.Â
You'll take every fuckinâ inchâ
He pulls back until only his glands stretch you open, and you know what's coming when his fingers grip the sides of your neck tight. Holding on. Anchoring you to the bed as he nudges his forearm tighter between your skull and the wall, a protective hold.Â
Before you can tense up, bracing for it, or even cry out no, please, don't, you can't take it, he huffs, and then slams his hips forward, splitting you open on the fat stretch of his thick, too heavy cock.Â
Maybe it's hysteria, delirium, but the blunt press of his length against your tender, sore walls balms the ache, the sting. The deeper he pushes, the less it hurts. A paradox that leaves you whimpering under his hand, heels digging into the broad stretch of his waist as you struggle to decide if you want to kick him away or pull him closer.Â
A war you don't have the power to win when he surges forward, burying himself to the hilt with a growl that shakes the fragile tendons surrounding your heart. Fear, misery. Pleasure, pain. It admixes. Coalescing into a dizzying sense of fullness, unbearable pressure. Catastrophic in its heaviness as your mind reels, struggles to come to terms with the gut-wrenching, heart-aching uncertainty of how you're supposed to go on without having him seated as deep inside of you as he can get. You've never known emptiness before him. Before now. Mere seconds ago.Â
And now, the thought of it leaves a palpable hollowness itching behind your ribs. Festering. Rotting tissue and bone.Â
âSimon,â you choke, sobbing his name out under the firm press of his hand. âSimonââ
But he knows.Â
His arm curls over your head like a crown, and you can easily forget the pinch of each thorn when he holds you tight. Protectively. Possessively. Securing you in his arms before he lifts up, palm sliding over the mattress, touch tender against your cheeks, and then settles it on the indent of your knee. Widening you for him as he spreads his thighs under yours until you're opened up for him.Â
Those dark eyes are dragged down to the split of your legs where his cock disappears into your slick, swollen cunt. You follow it down, gazing at the impressive width of his stomach bowing over you until they land on the jut of skin pushing out from a messy smatter of damp curls around the base of his cock.Â
The coarse hair of his groin unfurls as it sticks to your wet lips, and he rolls his head back over his shoulders he heaves through the too tight stretch of your walls over his length. You feel the pulse of him inside of you, thudding like a heartbeat. It blooms molten under the feverish weight of his lidded, dark gaze.Â
âFuck, birdie,â he rasps, and it's scorched. Charred. âLook at youââ
As the world is condensed, narrowed down to nothing but the near impossible stretch of his cock seated as deep inside of you as he can get, he leans down, scarred, mangled lips brushing cruelly over your ear, and whispers, see? Told you'd take me.Â
Every fuckinâ inch.Â
Your hand jerks to your belly, fingers dancing over your navel as if to feel him there, bulging from under your skin. Nearly hysterical as you try to come to terms with the pulsing, white-hot ache of him inside of you, slowly acclimating to his girth, his length.Â
He grunts when he sees what you're doing, eyes flaring as your fingers skirt around your navel.Â
âIt'sââ you shudder, gasping for air. âIt's too much, Simon, I can't take itââ
He rolls his hips with a groan. âmâcock too big for you, birdie?âÂ
His usual cadence is flat, droll, but an unmistakable sense of masculine pride, a deep, egotistic sense of satisfaction, drapes itself over his brassy words. Glueing to the scorching rasp of his voice in a way that makes you unerringly certain that he likes it. Likes that his cock is too big for you. That it hurts.Â
âYâcan take it,â he prompts, forcing more of himself into you until something snaps. Splits. Makes room. Carves out a space for him to fit.Â
The brief flash of pain is soothed when he's seated deep. That same paradoxical balm making itself known as he flattens his hips into yours with a noiseâhalf a grunt, or a growl; a lazy, pleasure-soaked snarl. You're not sure what it is, but the sound knocks the air from your lungs, igniting inside of you like a spark inside a tinderbox.Â
It's only when his balls are flush against you that the same masculine pride brims up again. Primal. Animalistic. The urge to present your soft belly rears up suddenly, and it's only stifled when he grunts again, looking down at you with lidded, black eyes.Â
âNow, be good and let me fuck your tight cunt.â
He's not looking for assent. Nothing you could say at this moment will sway his mind one way or the other. There's a nasty spool of determination welling up like blood on a pricked finger. Beading up to the surface in a clean, neat droplet as he rolls his broad shoulders, and shuffles into a comfortable position on his haunches between your spread thighs. The motion jostles his cock in a way that makes your breath hitch with each jerk.Â
It's not painful. Not particularly. But you're overwhelmed by the sensation of utter fullness in a way you've never experienced before. Each grind of his cock against your overly stretched walls deeping that incipient feeling of anxiety brewing in your belly that one wrong move and you'll tear. He's justâ
Too big.Â
And despite his claimsâor rather, in spite of themâyou don't think you can do it. Don't think you can take him. It's too much. It feels like being turned inside out and then put back into place. An uneasy sense of discomfiture blooms with each too-tight, too-sharp tug of his cock pulling taut on your rim.Â
Almost deliriously, you think you can feel the pulse of his cock inside your goddamn throat.Â
âSimonââ you start on a tremulous breath but he cuts you off with a hum.Â
âRelax.âÂ
You can't. Can'tâ
âFuckinâ hell, bird,â he rasps, leaning down suddenly until his face was pushed tight into the curve of your neck, breath shallow on your thudding pulse. âStop squirminâ âround me like thaâ or I'll cum right fuckinâ now.â
Your heart stutters. Gallops painfully in your chest. His words make you dizzy because for as much as this feeling of him, his cock, inside of you dances on a delicate precipice of being more than you can feasibly handle and somehow the most incredible thing you'd ever experienced before, you hadn't considered how he'd feel.Â
Inexplicably, it pleases you.Â
There's something so strangeâso extraordinaryâabout bringing a man like him, like this, to his knees. Pleasuring him by just heaving through the white-hot stretch of his cock inside of you. Making him bury his head in your neck, groaning about how he was gonna fuckinâ bust, pretty thing, fuckâ
It was a powerful feeling.Â
Unwarranted, maybe. But incredible, nevertheless.Â
âFuck,â he grunts, and you feel his throat work around a thick swallow. âGonna fuck you, birdie. Gonna fuck this pretty cunt so fuckin' hard until you beg me stopââ
And he does just that. Rears back from your neck, and settles again between your thighsâquicker this time. With an urgency that makes you whimper when his cock grinds against your walls hard enough to bruise.Â
When he finally pulls out until only the flared head of his cock remains, you knot a fist into the thin pillow, clinging on, and latch the other onto his hip as if that could somehow stop the vicious promise in his eyes about poundinâ you into the goddamn mattress. There's a flash, a brief flicker of his eyes, and then he thrusts back inside of you with a grunt that makes your belly clench, and your back arch.Â
True to the promises he gave, it's brutal. Violent.Â
Any pleasure you feel is leached through osmosis. A tether bound around his own.Â
His arm is shoved under your back, angling your pelvis up. Thighs dangling over the thick spread of his own, ass seated in his lap. He drives into you, thrusts deepâgrinds his hips until your moans break into hoarse screams, whimpers. Makes your eyes roll so far back, all you see is black even when you blink your eyes up at him.Â
He carves a spot deep inside of you with each delirious piston of his cock, pounding into you with brutal thrusts, and then holding tight when his balls slap against your ass. Digging the head of his cock into the seal of your womb until it aches behind your navel. Each breath feels like glass in your lungsâ
âThaâs it,â he slurs in your ear, mouth damp against your skin. âTake my cock so good, pretty birdie. Little pussy was made for it, weren't you? Tight cunt all mineââ
His gruff words tug on that tether until you're wrapped around him like a bow. Following him down this endless spiral as he slams inside of you over and over again, cooing in your ear about the sounds you made for him, pretty cunt so fuckinâ wet fâme, birdie, hear thaâ? all fâmeâ
âCum f'me, birdie. Want this pussy cumminâ âround my cockââ
âCan'tââ you gasp, arching into him, desperate and needy. It rides a line between pain and pleasure; a needlepoint you wobble on. âNeedââ
You try to reach down, to touch your clit, but grinds his hips into yours with a snarl. âCum âaround my cock, birdie.â
âTouch meââ
âFuckinâ hellââ
It edges on too much. Pain and pleasure teetering on a knife's edge, split apart by a line the width of a razer. Looping and tangling around each other until you can't differentiate between the two. But it makes sense, you suppose, staring up at him arched above you like a black cloud of smoke. All hunger and fire. Consuming, devouring, everything in its path. A wildfire.Â
Butcher, you think again when his hand wraps around your throat. A mimicry of what he did in the truck, forcing your eyes on him. Your life tucked neatly against his palm.
These hands take lives. It's what they're made for. All scarred, and thick. Scar tissue and bone. Muscle and cartilage. Meant to render meat of cattle. Slaughterhouse in the shape of a man. Consumption personified.Â
But where there should be fear, all you feel is an echoing sense of hunger. Leatherbound to each other, maybeâ
The look that passes over his eyes as he stares down at you, cupped in his palm, seems to fit perfectly into the fractured gaps inside yourself you try so hard to ignore. And what doesn'tâ
Well.Â
He'll make room to fit.Â
You reach up, curling your fingers around his thick wrist. His eyes flash, but he doesn't slow his thrusts. Doesn't stop. Just watches as you peel his hand away from your neck, bringing it up to your mouth.Â
On his palm, there's a piece of skin that's unblemished compared to the rest of his worn, burnt hands. A strip just big enough for you to sink your teeth into.Â
And you do.Â
âFuck, Birdieâ!â The snarl is ripped from his throat. His thrusts grow harder, sloppier. Each bit of strength in his muscled hips and thighs is used to pound into you until your vision blacks out. It hurts. Aches. Your heels slip down, catching on the broad expanse of his lower back. And you tighten them around his waist, pulling him closer. Deeper. âFuck, Birdie, fuckinâ cunt was made f'me, wasnât it? So cum on my cock. Nowââ
Whining, you shake your head. âCan't. I can't. I needââ
You don't get to finish. With a huff of anger, he rips his hand off of the mattress, leaning back on his haunches, and shoves his hand between your thighs, scarred fingers stroking over your pebbled clit. It's rough. Sloppy. His anger hums through his body, skewering into you as he glared down, gaze swinging like a pendulum between the split of your thighs where his cock disappears into your swollen cunt, his fingers rubbing over your clit, and back up the hand around your neck, the tears staining your cheeks.Â
There's an edge to his thrusts. A viciousness in the way he pistons his hips into you. Dark eyes catching every flickerâeach wince, gasp, moan, whine all meticulously catalogued and exploited. He finds the spots that make your hips jerk, twitching both toward and away from him. Angling into the ones that have your eyes rolling back into your head, drool dribbling past your slack lips as you gasp his name out into the dank, humid air.Â
It smells of sweat, sex, and him. Something brutal, bloody, and dark. Rotten leaves. Charred forests after a rain shower. Dangerous. Tinged with a slight acrid, chemical stenchâbenzene, oxidizing iron. It drips down your throat, and drenches your lungs. Staining you from the inside out.Â
And he exploits that, too. Leans in, and breathes heavily against your upper lip, your cheek. Drowns you in his scent. His sweat beads along his jaw, droplets raining down over your brow. Soaked in his essence. Unable to see, smell, or touch anything that isn't him.Â
With his hand over your mouth, teeth sunk into his palm, all you can taste is him, too. Leather. Gun oil. Blood.Â
The ravenous look in his eye sharpens, turning into deadly points.Â
âSuch a pretty fuckin' bird.â He rasps, the words shattered, mangled in the back of his throat. They carry the scent of blood when you breathe them in, and you wonder if he forced them through glass. Pushed them out with his bloody fists.Â
You bite down harder in response, keening through the white-hot pain of his cock spearing deeper than before, stretching you past your limits. The taste of blood on your tongue, the rasping snarl pulled from his chest, his fingers toying with your clit, push you over the edge once more. Again and again, and again, andâ
His hand peels away from your oversensitive clit, dropping down to the mattress beside your face. He follows quickly after several impossibly deep thrusts that shove you higher up on the mattress, pressing in until his balls sit flush against your ass, cockhead battering against your cervix, and he groansâdeep and liquidâwhen he comes, spilling inside of you. Rooted deep, cock twitching, Simon drops to his elbow beside your head, smothering you under his weight as the tension in his body bleeds out.Â
Your teeth stick to the divots in his hand, and the sensation of ungluing them from the wounds you gave him makes you shiver. Slowly, you roll your tongue out, chasing the drops of blood, and breathe heavily through your nose as he burrows deeper inside of you, chest shuddering over yours.Â
âFuckinâ hell,â he rasps, hips jerking into yours with a slap that echoes through the room. âLittle tease, ain't you?âÂ
Even with his cock softening inside of you, it's still thick. Fat. Stretching you open as he yawns out above you, bloodied hand dropping down to cup your neck again, forearm resting heavily between your breasts. He raises slightly on his elbow, black eyes glinting in the shallow dark of the room. Piercing as they drill into your sweat-slicked face.Â
It aches when he moves. When he presses his hips harder into yours, the muscles in your legs throb as his broad waist splits them apart. Your feet dangle, sliding uselessly down his back, over his ass, before coming to rest curled around his thighs. Melting into the mattress, tender and sore and all chewed upâ
You feel like a massive contusion instead of a person. A pestle. His.Â
The thought makes you shiver, and his eyes flash in triumph like he knows.Â
The feeling of him pulling out of you draws a whimper from your lips. The drag on your sensitive, bruised walls is a strange mix of tender pleasure and pain. He chuckles at your mewlâdark and low; the sound of nightmares, you think. Crackling sap on charred wood.Â
You try to pretend it doesn't make you shudder, but the way he hums in response dashes the feigned oblivion before it can form. All you can do is heave on the bed, and watch him through narrowed slits as he leans back on his haunches once again, head cocking to the side. His dark eyes fixed on the split of your legs. The ache in your cunt growing sharp under his molten stare.Â
âFuck,â he rasps, the shallow groan pulled out from between clenched teeth. You wonder if the mangled curse was unintentional. Ripped from his throat before he could clamp his jaws around itâa crack in the facade. A hairline splinter in the indomitable mask he wears.Â
Your heart lurches. None of this makes sense, but your head is too muddled, too syrupy, to think much at all. A quandary for later when he throws you from his bed with a harsh slap on your ass and a and don't think about doing this ever again.Â
But you don't think you can move. âGive me a minute,â you start on a trembling breath. âAnd I'llââ
His brows move but his eyes stay fixed on your sore cunt. You can feel him leak out of you, spilling on the mattress in thick globs. The sensation makes you shiver.Â
âYou'll what?âÂ
It looks like he has to forcibly tear his eyes away from you, reluctance forming a cold, angry crater between his brows. The brunt of his ireâwhite, burningâmakes you want to supplicate yourself at his feet, roll over on your belly and show the beast you mean no harm.Â
(Run, and run farâ)
He huffs. âYou'll what, birdie?â
It takes a minute to find your voice through all the panic clogging your throat. âI'll leave, umââ
He peels away from you with a loud, rough snort, and drops to his his elbow beside you. Hands curling possessively over your waist, fingers tight. Unyielding.Â
âNot goinâ anywhere, birdie. Told you, didn't I? You're mine.âÂ
âI'mââ
âGo to sleep.âÂ
He pulls you roughly to his chest until your head is pillowed on his shoulder, and then rolls on his back, keeping you cushioned at his side. You try to move, but his arm wedges under your neck, curling over your shoulder. Trapping you to him.Â
The panic wants to come now. To rage against the shackle of his embrace, to run home and scrub your skin until it bleeds. But the exhaustion collapses over it all until your eyes feel too heavy to hold open. Too painful.
As you drift, aimless and dreamless, his voice cuts through the fog. âGotta learn âow to cum with nothinâ but my cock inside of you sooner or later, birdie. Or you won't be coming at allââ
It sounds like a threat. A promise. You fall asleep with the words echoing in your head, his arm an anchor around your waist.Â
He wakes up hungry.Â
A gnawing in his belly pulls him from the thin doze he fell into after fucking you three more timesâwith your face pressed into the mattress, ass in the air for him to rut against like a beast; teetering over his hips, the spread of them too wide for your thighs to split over leaving you precariously unbalanced and shifting your weight above him as neither knee sat comfortably on the mattress; and on your belly with him crushing you to the floor under his bulk. The memory of which makes his spent cock stir, twisting limply against his damp, sticky thigh. Matted down with drying cum, sweat, the slick wetness of being buried inside your messy cunt.Â
Filled now with his cum.Â
He groans low in his throat as he thinks about it. The sloppy way you let him take you over and over again until you couldn't keep your eyes open anymore, passing out before he finished. Letting him fuck his cum inside of you as you whimpered in your sleepâ
Perfect little thing, aren't you? So good to him.
Simon can't remember the last time he fucked someone, much less when it was this enjoyable (an understatement, of course; in the back of his head, wheels spin round and round as he tries to come up with a plan to keep his cock buried inside of you at all times while still doing his workâ), and the overflow of unquenched lust churns in his belly. A hunger he can now slake on your willing body. In the silence, he purrsâ
But the effort, the exertion, dredged up a different need inside him.Â
Simple hunger. An appetite.Â
He could eatâ
his eyes slant toward the top of your crown in the dark, and he amends it, quickly, to: in more ways than one.Â
He'll go home in a minute. Make himself a steak from the prime cut he butchered a few days ago, leftovers that no one had any qualms about when he took several pieces home with him.Â
(and really, why would they argue with the butcher who keeps their wallets fat and their bills paid?)
It was left on the counter earlier before he got the call that your brother was making another move. Now a perfect room temperature as it waits for him to come back. Cook it the way he likesâ
Rare.Â
The perfect grill is a nice char on the outside, but bleeding red on the inside. Basted in duck fat and garlic. A sprig of rosemary in the pan, but not touching the meat. Just enough to give the juice that earthy, sweet flavour. Let it rest for ten minutes under foil with the rest of the fat poured over it from the pan. Served as is with maybe a dash of salt and pepper on the side.Â
Simple. But incredibly difficult to perfect, he finds.Â
Everyone tries to make it fancier than what it needs to be, but at the end of the day, meat is meat. And going from picking scraps from the garbage outside of the Italian butcher on the corner to ordering his own pretentious filet mignon still gives him a sense of unease. Whiplash, perhaps. Nothing to somethingâhow about that, Tommy?Â
Maybe that's why he prefers to raise and butcher his own cattle. A never-ending supply of meat for him to sink his teeth into even if this whole thing goes belly up and he's back to begging for morsels on the corner. Tommy hiding in the shadows with a baseball bat waiting to ambush the richer men who happen to feel altruistic that day.Â
This practice bled over into his current occupation, too. The basement of that same Italian butcher shop he used to sneak expired sausage from out of the bins is now his home base of sorts. A money laundering front of the 141. Headquarters for them to congregate in secrecy upstairs. And hereâ
A torture chamber for those who tried to cross them. Strung up on meat hooks like the cattle they eat, the ones he feeds them, until he makes up his mind on what he wants to do to them.Â
It's where you should have been, he supposes, thumb brushing a spot of dried blood on your shoulder, right below a nasty bite mark on your forearm. The ring nearly black from the clotted blood pooling in the indents. It matches several others on your thighsâtop, insides, backâand neck, belly, collarbones, sternum. All chewed up. Marked by the butcher.Â
In working for the old Italian man who ran the shop when he was eighteen, he learned that most of the butchers preferred to mark their carcasses when they came in. A little x on the fat to signify they'd be the ones carving up the prime meat.Â
He didn't think you could handle his knife, so he gave you his teeth instead. But the implication is clear.Â
His.Â
It's overkill considering his reputation, and the claim he already had on you. Because even before this, back when he saw you through the window of his shop as he was moonlit as a legitimate butcher and businessman instead of the enforcer, the brute, everyone already knew he was, his interest was clear. You were off-limits. His to deal with.Â
And while Price refers not to get involved in small-time street dealers, the warnings Soap and Gaz impressed onto your brother should have been the end of an irritating situation and not the beginning of a fuckinâ headache. But no. He had to push. And push. Â
Until Price gave the order to take care of it.Â
And that he did.Â
(With the added benefit of killing one bird and keeping the other in a pretty cage.)
Price probably won't like his solution, but Simon racked up enough favours to keep a little pet of his own. Been a good boy for a long, long time now, and he supposes he's owed a bone.Â
Or a sweet thing tucked tight to his side having passed out some two hours ago after he slaked his dizzying thirst on you over and over again even though it doesn't feel like it's been enough.Â
It's rare that he has an appetite for people. Even rarer that he lets this meagre hunger consume him like this. But there's something about you that makes his teeth ache in the same way they often do whenever he's hungry for meat.Â
He wants to devour you. Consume you. Eat you alive and save nothing for anyone else to taste.Â
(Soâ
Price will just have to let him keep you, won't he?)
The mattress vibrates under him. His phone buzzing with an incoming text. He reaches over, pulling it close enough to read the notification on his screen. It's from Soap.
All her stuff is on your porch.Â
He hums, but doesn't reply. Simply opts to drop his phone on his belly, and tug you closer to his broad chest. He'll wake you in an hour, and the stirring in his groin tells him it'll be for another round. Maybe he'll take you in the freezer. Make you cling to the hook hanging down from the ceiling as he fucks you like that. He has a pair of ties for ox, lamb legs, that he can loop around your wrists and heft you up on.Â
It'll hurt, he's sure. The binds weren't designed with comfort in mind, but he can easily bear your weight as he pounds into you from below, your pretty legs wrapped tight around his waist.Â
The image, the thought, alone has him thickening against his thigh. He reaches down, gripping the base tight in his hand as he pulls you even closer, burying his nose in your crown.Â
At the very least, he wouldn't be lying when he told Price he strung you up.Â
Three roundsâon your back, your hands and knees, perched above him like a pretty goddess he stole away from a templeâand he still isn't satisfied. Fuck. He breathes in your scent and doesn't think he ever will be.Â
He'll get you out of here, take you home. Make you the steak he likes for a late dinner, rare and simpleâthe same one he gave your brother weeks ago when he dragged him into the shop, strung him up on a hook, and demanded payment for his disrespect.Â
Who'd have thought that his payment would be you?Â
(fitting, though, since he'd had his eye on you for a while nowâ)
He nudges you when his phone chimes again with another message doubtless from Soap telling him all your things have been tucked away. Matters dealt with.Â
âCâmon,â he grunts, running his hand down your spine. âWeâre leavinâ.â
You blink at him slowly. âLeaving?â
He nods. âGet dressed.âÂ
You're quiet as he turns, reaching for his jeans left in a heap beside the mattress, but he hears the hitch in your throat. The click when you swallow. Unbothered by it, he turns, giving you his back as he wedges his feet inside the trousers, pulling them up his legs.Â
The bed shifts behind him. âIâI can walk back to my brother'sââ
The hope in your voice is a delicate thing. Fragile like fine china. A pretty, vulnerable tchotchke meant to be seen, admired, but not touched. Not handled roughly.Â
Unfortunately for you, he's never had much of a gentle touch.Â
When he throws a glance over his shoulder, he's not surprised to find your arm folded over your bare breasts as you kneel on the mattress, your palm resting flat between your parted thighs, wrist and forearm covering the slip of heaven between them from his greedy, prying gaze.Â
It paints a startling picture, he finds. One with you looking thoroughly ravaged. Taken. But presenting it in a soft sort of sensuality meant to make a man feel both hot under the collar and like an unrepentant voyeur.Â
Pretty bird, he thinks, and feels his cock stir.Â
He rises swiftly, hiking up his jeans around his thighs as he goes, and then turns to you with a heady desire to crush that gossamer of hope between his greedy hand like a silken cobweb that will stick to his fingers.Â
âNot goinâ to your brothers,â he says, pushing his tongue against his cheek to stem the ache burning in his muscles.Â
You shiver, eyes growing wide, frenzied with fear as you stare up at him. The shift of your throat when you swallow makes pre-cum dribble out of his fattened cock. He's never really had much of a taste for it, but he's overcome with the urge to see you cryâ
âWhere are we going?â
Amid the ache in his loins, the flickering fantasies of your pretty, lachrymal face gazing up at him helpless, hopeless, and needy, he catches the edge of panic when you speak. The razor-sharp tremble of fear.Â
But buried amongst it, hidden in the bruised look you give him as he towers over you with his cock bulging in his slacks and his eyes burning with want, he finds a keen sense of eagerness amongst the rubble. Agog, almost.Â
And fuck. If that doesn't do something awful to him.Â
âWhat?â He taunts, cocking his head to the side as your breath grows shallow and your eyes wide. âDid you think that was enough to pay your debt, birdie?â
âWhat? You can'tââ
âDon't like itââ he lifts his shoulder up in a cool, indifferent shrug, enjoying the dismayed expression that falls over your brow more than he should. ââgo to the police.â
âThe ones on your payroll?â You spit, eyes flaring wide like an angry cat. âYouââ
Several things might have continued in place of your choked, angry sob, but it's swallowed down as pragmatically as it was the first time he cornered you earlier today. And as beautiful as your ire is, he finds the cornered look on your face to be much more pleasing. Prettier.Â
âCâmon, bird,â he mocks, holding his hand out toward you with a tick of his lips. âAll your stuff is at home. Don't be stupid.âÂ
âStupid?â You gasp in indignation, but there's a bruised look in your eyes. A wounded thing that makes his breath hitch in his lungs for reasons he can't really ascertain, but just knows that he likes it. Likes it a lot. âThis isâinsane.â
Again, he shrugs, but the indifference this time isn't the same manufactured callousness meant to inspire fear. The conversation is stale already. Grating on him. He's not used to having his orders ignored or questioned. What he says usually goesâeither through association or reputation, or just the fact that no one has ever come close to filling the same measure of space as he doesâand questioning him like this makes him feel too much like a boy, and not enough like the living ghost he pretends to be.Â
âYou can't do this. It's not right.â
An appeal to his humanity. Cute. He huffs, reaching down to fasten the button of his jeans. The sound the zipper makes cuts through the room. âYou're mine, birdie. Better get used to it.âÂ
Catching your eye as he says it was only meant to reignite the kindling fear you have of him from extinguishing. A scared prey animal was a better pet than an angry one. But the look on your face catches him off-guard.Â
It reminds him of a flightless little bird shivering in a child's shoebox. Tiny broken thing his mum warned him not to touch or its mother would abandon it to die on its own.Â
âUntil the debt is paid off.â
A statement, not a question. He shrugs, but doesn't respond. Tilts his head toward the door. âLet's go.âÂ
His lack of reassurance doesn't soften the flint in your gaze, but the prospect of recompense seems to spurn you on. Another wishbone of hope to cling to. And despite himself, he lets you keep it. Lets your little finger wrap around the delicate bone for comfort because as much as you might think there's a fifty-fifty chance of getting the bigger piece, he has no intentions of letting something like that get in the way of his appetite even if you do.Â
(And his hunger has always been particularly voracious, hasn't it?)
âCome, birdie. Gotta get you home, and fed, don't I?âÂ
