Chapter Eight

Abel

“Kneel there until you are told otherwise, hands behind your back, keep your back straight. Don’t speak.”

Rowe demands, and she does as she is told but rolls her eyes as she assumes her position. It’s not the first time tonight he has told her to do this, it probably won’t be the last.

“You’re a bratty little thing aren’t you?”

Rowe drawls, an eyebrow raised. Lexi has been told to remain silent, and in her defence, she does, but in defiance her tongue pokes out in response. My lip curls, and I suppress a laugh.

“Don’t push me, brat.”

He likes to be pushed though; if Rowe loves one thing, it’s a brat he can try to tame. “I should put you over my knee.”

He mutters, though his eyes flare with desire as he remains above her.

Interestingly, so are hers.

“How about a game?”

I’m surprised it is Sergio and not Kai who suggests this. Our little Lexi must have intrigued him, he has shown more interest in her, than anyone before.

“Hide and Seek.”

Kai agrees eagerly and I nod my approval. Rowe sighs, it isn’t his favourite as it lacks the voyeuristic control he desires, but for us, he will agree. He turns to the girl at our feet.

“You can relax the position. We will be back in shortly with instructions.”

Rowe gives her permission to rest her arms and back. She almost sighs as she stretches her muscles from being in such a rigid pose as we walk away. Her knees must ache too, it didn’t miss my notice that he purposefully left her there and I smirk at him. His smile is knowing.

We don’t need to go far, a hanging rail with the necessary props in sight. We put on masks, full, black face coverings that have neon imagery that only shows in the blacklight. Worn with long robes that cover our clothes, we want her confused, unsure of which man is which when we pluck her from the dark.

When we turn back to look at her, she is a thing of beauty, hair tangled from sex, grey eyes wild. She’s excited, ready and expectant. On her knees for us, still naked and awaiting instruction. Rowe, again, taking control, lifts her chin to meet his eyes behind the mask.

“You are to get dressed, and you are to run. You will be given twenty minutes to run and hide yourself within our playground. We will hunt you. We will hunt you and fuck you to our hearts content when we catch you.”

I hear Kai snort behind the mask and I smile. Of course we know she wants to be caught.

“You will fight though, you want an extreme experience, little Lexi, and you will get it, but you will not forget to fight.”

I add from behind Rowe, noting he hasn’t let her head drop from his gaze. I smirk, dominant fucker.

“Do you remember your safe word?”

Sergio asks just as I go to turn, and I pause awaiting her answer.

“Yes.”

“Yes what?”

Rowe barks. It’s not the first time he has asked this tonight either.

“Yes, Sir.”

Her words are laced with sarcasm, and I can’t help the laugh that escapes me. This brat is sure to receive ten swats from Rowe later for her insolence when he gets his hands on her.

I can’t help but wonder, as I walk away from her, if she did it on purpose.
