28. Cade

The carnival goers are thinning out, and the rides are being powered down while Lily and I wander around.

"Cade," she says my name.

I look down at her to see the anxiety blazing in her pretty blue eyes. "Yes, baby?"

She shakes her head. "I don't know if I can leave this place behind. It's my home and?—"

Grabbing her throat, I silence what she's about to say. "I'm your home now, angel. You agreed to come with me earlier. What changed?"

"It's a huge step, and you didn't give me much time to think about it and put things in order."She wrinkles her nose. "I've got a job, an apartment. You don't just leave those things on a whim."

I feel my blood boil at her calling what we have a ‘whim.' She really doesn't get it. I grab her hand firmly and start walking, practically dragging her to the main events tent.

"Cade, stop! Where are we going?"she cries out, struggling to keep up with my fast pace.

I don't answer, fury pulsing through me. We reach the empty tent, and I force her onto a chair in the middle of the large space.

"What we have is special, Lily,"I state through gritted teeth as I pace in front of her. "I will prove it to you so you never question me again."

She watches me with wide, fearful eyes, shrinking back into the chair. "Please, Cade, listen?—"

"No, you listen!"I roar, crouching down and grabbing her chin roughly. "I saw you when I got to this town and knew you were mine. Don't you feel our connection?"

Tears spill down her cheeks as she whimpers, trying to pull her face from my grip.

I soften my voice and caress her cheek. "We're meant for each other. I can't leave here without you. You have to see that."

She shakes her head slightly, sniffling. "I don't know..."

I stand up abruptly, fists clenched."Well, I do know. And I'll prove it to you before we leave Willow Creek."I quickly undo her blouse and bra, discarding them on the floor.

"What are you?—"

"No questions,"I growl, moving to her skirt next and forcing her ass off the seat to drag it down. "Fuck, you're so wet."I drag a finger through the soaked gusset of her panties. "All for me, isn't it, baby?"

Her eyes flutter shut as she exhales deeply. "Yes,"she murmurs.

I tear her panties in two, discarding the fabric so she's entirely naked on the chair before me. "Beautiful,"I muse, grabbing some rope from the floor and tying her body up, using bondage techniques to put pressure on her most sensitive places. Once finished, I circle Lily.

Fuck she looks angelic.

A prize ready to be claimed.

I circle around Lily, admiring my handiwork as she sits bound on the chair. The ropes accentuate her curves perfectly, tightening in all the right places. She watches me with those doe eyes, equal parts nervous and excited. I can't wait to make her scream.

"Now, don't go anywhere,"I tease. As if Lily could even get out of those bindings if she wanted. I take my time gathering supplies from around the tent. An abandoned bottle of baby oil from a magician's act. Some silk ribbons were left over from the acrobats. And, of course, a few of my favorite tools from my toolkit. I set everything up on a table beside her.

When I'm satisfied with my preparations, I stand before her again, running my hands up her thighs. I squeeze roughly when I reach her hips, making her gasp.

"Please,"she whispers.I'munsure if it's a plea for more or for me to stop. Either way, I have no intention of doing either yet. I want to take my time and make her ache for me.

I trail my fingers up her stomach, circling her nipples before giving them a sharp pinch. She cries out, arching into me. I grin. My angel is so responsive. I repeat the motion again and again until she's panting and writhing in the ropes.

"That's my good girl," I murmur.

I continue to lavish attention on Lily's body, determined to make her understand that she belongs to me. My hands glide along her curves as I admire the way the ropes accentuate her figure. She's trembling, but I can see the desire burning in her eyes.

"Cade, please..."she whispers, her voice thick with need.

I silence her with a firm kiss, swallowing her whimpers. When I pull away, her lips are swollen and glistening. "Shh, angel. I'm going to take such good care of you."

Picking up the bottle of baby oil, I drizzle it along her collarbone, watching it glisten on her skin. Slowly, I trail my fingers down, massaging the slick oil into her sensitive flesh. Lily arches into my touch, her breath coming in short pants.

I knead her breasts, rolling the pebbled peaks between my fingers until she's squirming. "That's it, let me hear you,"I murmur, lowering my mouth to capture one aching bud between my lips.

Lily cries out, the sound music to my ears. I suckle and nip, determined to wring every last bit of pleasure from her body. When I switch to the other breast, she's whimpering and writhing, lost in sensation.

Satisfied for now, I trail my oily fingers lower, tracing the outline of her hips. I can see the glistening evidence of her arousal soaking the chair. "So wet for me, angel. You want me to touch you, don't you?"

She nods frantically, straining against the ropes. "Yes, please. I need you."

I chuckle darkly. "Beg for it."

The sound of footsteps draws my attention. Turning around, I find Nash, Colt, and Remy entering the tent and instantly, their eyes are drawn to my angel.

"Sorry, Cade,"Colt says, holding his hands up. "Didn't know you were busy."

Remy chuckles. "Any chance you're putting on a late-night show?"His eyes flash with dark desire.

If these fuckers even considered touching her, I'd murder them all without hesitation. Still, the idea of giving them a show, proving to them who this pretty angel belongs to, thrills me.

"Sure, stick around."I turn my attention back to Lily. "But know if you ever even consider touching what's mine, I'll murder you all."

Nash and Colt laugh, but it's no joke. "Don't worry, we'll just watch."

"Cade,"Lily says my name in pleading, eyes wide. "Please, don't."

"Don't what, baby? Show them who you belong to? Show them how fucking beautiful you are when you come on my cock?"

Her lip trembles as she glances toward the stands where the three men sit. I follow her gaze, noticing all three are already jerking off. She licks her lips, and I grab her chin forcefully. "Don't tell me you are thinking about sucking their dicks?"

"What? No!" She replies.

"The only dick you can ever fucking think about is mine, got it?"

She swallows hard and nods. I release her and turn my attention back to Nash, Colt, and Remy sitting eagerly in the stands.

"Enjoying the show so far, boys?"I call out.

They whistle and laugh in response.

I look back at Lily, taking in her naked, bound form. My cock throbs at the sight. I trail my fingers along her thighs before dipping them between her legs. She's absolutely soaked.

"You're loving this, aren't you?"I growl in her ear. "Being on display for me. Showing everyone that your body belongs to me."

Lily whimpers, squirming in the ropes. I continue stroking her slick folds until she's panting and moaning. The sounds of her pleasure echo through the tent.

When she's right on the edge, I withdraw my fingers. Lily whines at the loss. I chuckle and turn to select a toy from my toolkit, making a show of deliberating for my enthralled audience.

"Your favorite tool, isn't it, baby?"I ask, grabbing the wrench and holding it up for her to see.

Lily's eyes widen at the sight of the wrench in my hand. She shakes her head frantically, tugging at the ropes binding her wrists.

"No, please, not that,"she begs. But her pleas only excite me more.

I run the cold metal head of the wrench down the valley between her breasts. She shivers, nipples pebbling.

"I think you do want this,"I murmur. "Your body doesn't lie, angel."

I continue gliding the wrench down her stomach and over her thighs. Lily squirms, her breath coming faster. I can see the conflict in her eyes, fear and desire warring within.

When I nudge the wrench against her slick folds, she gasps. I grin wolfishly. Slowly, I work the handle back and forth, letting the ribbed metal stimulate her most sensitive spots.

Lily tosses her head back, unable to hold in her moans of pleasure. Her hips buck, seeking more friction. I increase the pace, fucking her with the wrench as she cries out.

"That's it, let us hear how good it feels,"I growl.

The sounds of her wet pussy squelching and Lily's ecstatic wails echo through the tent. I sneak a glance at Nash, Colt, and Remy. All three have their cocks out, stroking furiously as they watch the show.

"You gonna come for us, pretty girl?"Remy calls out. "Show us how much you love having that tight cunt stuffed full."

Lily whimpers, her thighs trembling. She's right on the edge. I slow my motions, drawing it out.

"Who does this belong to?"I snarl, emphasizing each word with a hard thrust.

"Y-you!"Lily cries. "It's yours, Cade!"

"That's fucking right. Now come for me."

I drive the wrench home hard and fast. Lily shatters, her orgasmic screams ringing out. I work her through it until she slumps limp in the ropes.

Slowly, I withdraw the wrench, slick with her release. Lily pants heavily, her eyes glazed and unfocused. I smirk, pleased at having unraveled her so thoroughly.

Shows only getting started, and once I've claimed Lily with an audience, there'll be no refuting it. She's my angel. And she belongs with me. Wherever the fuck I go, she goes.
