Chapter 29 - Lev

So much had to be done over the next few days that I barely had a chance to speak privately with Parker, let alone finally claim her again after almost losing her. Sergey had been debriefed on the status of Pavel's blown-in skull and the fact that he was getting help from nearly all our rivals in the area—particularly the Irish who straight-up attacked us.

He took the news about as well as expected, and there was likely to be a huge crackdown on the Family's work to keep the Irish players under careful watch.

I dismissed members of my house staff who couldn't keep the place locked up while I was away as well, and cleaning up the mess that had left took the better part of three days. So, by this point, I was ready to bring in some fresh people and stop being treated like a damned invalid.

My bed sounded fantastic after a long day, and I was very relieved to see Parker already inside when I got there.

"I'm not a child. I can take off a fucking shirt by myself," I grumbled at Parker as she helped me ease the button-down off my shoulders.

She rolled her eyes at me, smirking with the corner of her mouth.

"I'm aware you're not a kid, Lev. I'm trying to help you. Be grateful."

Turning, now fully shirtless and appreciating the way Parker's eyes still roamed over my tattoos whenever she could see them, I narrowed my stare on her. She was already dressed for bed, so to speak, with a thin silk nightgown on that did little to hide the sensual curves of her body, her perky nipples apparent behind the red fabric.

A low growl hummed out of me at the sight, and my dick twitched beneath my dress pants. I would never tire of how incredible Parker looked, how she felt, how that brilliant mind and perfect body belonged to me. It was easy to walk her backward by just stepping forward, and I got her right up against the side of the bed.

"Or what, little one?"

She held my stare confidently, but this close up, I could see the way her pupils dilated and her pulse fluttered in her neck.

"Or, I won't give you the good news."

Quirking a brow, I smoothed my hand across her cheek, tangling my fingers in Parker's copper curls.

"Oh, and what good news is that?"

With a grin that was nothing but sin and expectation, Parker leaned into my hand, her eyes blinking to the floor before those peridot eyes came back to me.

"That your final tests came through, and you're completely fine. Platelet levels have stabilized, you're healing beautifully from the laceration, and there"s no sign of infection."

"Are you saying," I began to circle my hand around to the back of her neck, feeling the tension grow in the air as my cock thickened, "what I think you're saying?"

"Clean bill of health, Mr. Vadim. You're cleared for more…physical activities."

As soon as the words left her mouth, I gripped the nape of Parker's neck, then shoved her down to the ground at my knees.

"Fuck, little one. I've been waiting for this for way too long."

Parker looked up at me from the position, her eyes already lidded with arousal as her chest gently heaved. She dragged her hands up my legs, her small fingers going for my belt buckle.

"You still want me here? You still want me to stay? Even after all the heat of the kidnapping is gone?"

Leaning just enough to take her chin, I squeezed my fingers into the hollow of Parker's cheeks, forcing her to open.

"I want you here, little one. You'll be at my side forever. Mine and mine alone. Got it?" She nodded, her mouth open for me. "Good. Now, be my sweet girl and wrap those pretty lips around me."

Freeing my erection with the other hand, I held eye contact with Parker as I slid my shaft across her tongue and down her throat. She welcomed me hungrily, rocking her head back and forth to take me up to the hilt. The warmth that enveloped me was sublime, and I instinctively gripped Parker's hair, holding her in place as I fucked her mouth.

Then her hands were surrounding the base of my erection as she rolled her tongue around the head, and I bucked in her grip. We'd entertained ourselves like this over the past few days, and Parker was getting better and better at sucking me off.

Real damn good.

I loved watching her at my feet, taking me down her throat as her eyes gently watered. But I'd been cleared for bigger things than this, and I had plans.

As Parker popped me out of her lips with a resounding smack, I yanked her back to her feet, spinning her around to face the bed. My hand went to the hem of her nightie, and I bunched in between my fingers until I reached her hip, slipping my hand between her thighs.

She was already blissfully wet, and there were no useless panties to get in my way. Ugh, best decision you ever made, Lev. My dick shuddered near her ass as I toyed with her slick slit.

"Oh, fuck, Lev. Please." She rubbed herself against me. "I've been just as hungry for this. Please."

I knew what she really meant. It wasn't just the notion of sex. We'd been able to fool around with each other some as I healed. No, this was about finding the raw, painful pleasure we both needed so badly. Parker and I didn't do soft, and I was finally cleared to give her everything I had.

Sliding my hand back enough to slap her sensitive skin, I relished the way Parker arched into me, her ass grinding against my erection as she gripped the covers.

"Get this fucking thing off you." I yanked at the nightgown before reaching to my pants and sliding my belt free. "And spread those legs."

Kicking her feet wider with my foot, Parker adjusted happily, widening her stance as she pulled the silk nightie over her head and tossed it to the floor. She leaned onto her elbow on the bed, her hips coming back to present her ass so beautifully for me.

"Such a good girl. You know exactly where I want you."

"Lev," Parker whined, "please. I need it."

With a clean yank, the leather of my belt slid completely out of my belt loops, my diamond-hard cock still fed through the hole of my downed zipper. I folded the belt in half, taking a step closer. As the head of my erection brushed against Parker's entrance, she moaned low, and I let just that first few inches slide in. I wanted to feel her pussy clamp down as I used the belt.

In a hard crack, I brought the belt down on her right ass cheek, and Parker squeezed around me. Her yelp immediately bled into a contented sigh, and I loosened another blow on the other cheek. She arched, gripping the fabric beneath her hands, and more of me slid into her pussy.

"Naughty little thing. Getting more of Daddy's cock inside that needy pussy."

Two more strikes, and then I thrust myself deep, bottoming out inside Parker. Her walls clamped down around me, the constriction tight and incredible. I rocked my hips, slowly sliding in and out as I rained down several more light smacks.

Her skin was a delightful shade of pink, and my shoulder pinched slightly at the strain. It had been far too long since we'd done this or since I was physical, and I wouldn't let any weakness in my muscles stand. There were several more evenings like this one in our future.

"Fuck, Lev! Yes!"

I smirked down at her, dropping the belt and grabbing her ass with both hands. I squeezed hard, and Parker hissed against the pressure on her sensitive skin. I hadn't moved yet either, and she started to thrust her hips back and forth.

"You're so damn needy, aren't you? That's it, little one. Fuck my cock."

She worked faster, ramming herself backward before rolling her hips in a circle that made the head of my erection rub against every angle inside her. Parker moaned low as she found her G-spot, paying particular attention to it as she fucked harder, quicker.

Continuing to squeeze her ass, I toyed with the slippery skin as my cock stretched her, roaming my digits over every available in. Parker cried out as the quick, fluttering touches tangled with the hard jolt to her insides as she thrust back. I bottomed out as far as possible as her natural rhythm met a sudden shove forward of my hips.

"Ahh!" She screamed, and I grabbed a fistful of her hair as she arched up off the mattress, pulling her head back toward her ass.

It forced me deep like that on every move, and we began to time our efforts once more as we both lost ourselves to the sensations.

Parker's folds were slick around my thumb as I glided it up her ass and then back down. The new sensation tipped her over the edge, and I felt Parker pulse around me as she came, clenching down on my cock like a damn vice. I didn't let up, taking more and more from her until the familiar burn of release warmed my shaft and balls.

Another hard thrust, Parker's glorious cries echoing in the room, and I was coming deep inside her pussy, pumping my hot release into her for what felt like years. Her quaking pussy milked every damn drop until she was so full that a tiny trail dribbled down her leg.

"So fucking beautiful, little one."

The sound of our heaving breaths filled the quiet room, and as I pulled back from her, Parker collapsed to the bed. She didn't even bother getting on it properly, just laying her chest down while her feet were still planted on the floor. I love the look of her freshly fucked slit—glossy and red and swollen.

Helping her to lift up her legs and get on the mattress, I crawled in alongside her. It felt so damn good to really give myself to the experience and to be able to lift her as needed. Neck-to-shoulder injuries were a bitch when it came to picking anything up that weighed more than a pound.

"Holy shit, Lev. That was…" Parker's glazed eyes met my satisfied stare. "That was something."

She laughed, tired and content. It was a damn gorgeous sound, and I pulled Parker under my arm against my side as we lay in the large bed. Looking down at her, those green eyes sparkling with the afterglow of roaring sex, I pinched her chin.

"In case it wasn't abundantly clear," I let the smile drop, getting more serious. "you stay with me. You're mine, Parker. I'll not see you go anywhere. You're my fucking wife, and I intend to treat you as mine in every damn situation until I shuffle off this mortal coil."

She stared up at me, a glimmer of moisture touching her eyes. "I had a feeling. But, I'll admit it is very nice to hear."

Pushing up onto her elbow, Parker looked down at me this time, her eyes narrowing on me.

"And I'll have you know that you belong to me, Mr. Lev Vadim. You're mine as much as I am yours. Don't get any ideas about dying any time soon. Not as long as I'm around. And I expect you to keep me in the loop about everything. I'm yours, yes. But I'm also your partner. You will not leave me in the dark. Understood?"

I couldn't stop the laugh at hearing the familiar word come from her mouth. But she didn't need to worry or threaten. I would do anything this woman asked of me.

"Understood, little one. Understood."
