The Bratva’s Bounty (Volkov Bratva #3)

26. Lev

Chapter 26

Lev

Guilt ebbed around in my chest on most of the drive home because I felt bad about canceling on Nicole after working both of us up before I left, but I was exhausted.

Fortunately, I didn't have to pull out one of the lame apologies I cooked up. I don't know how or why, but when I was about a block away from home, a sudden surge of energy woke me.

It was like I'd snorted a line!

All I could think about then were the ways I'd take Nicole the moment I got my hands on her… and where I'd take her. Maybe I should drag her out back and fuck her in the garden under the moonlight; it was nice out tonight. The kitchen sounded like a nice idea, too. I mean, I was kinda hungry after my little frenzy; maybe I gotta hike her onto the island and feast on her until I was satisfied.

Fucking hell… So many places, so little time and loads. As pumped as I was, I doubt I'd be able to hit my usual three tonight. Actually, the more I thought about it, how the hell did I even make it to three loads nearly every time we screwed around? I mean, I was always exhausted and passed out nearly right away each and every time, but the fact I hadn't kneeled over and died yet was a shocker to me.

Whatever thoughts muddled my mind flushed down the drain the moment I pulled into my garage and killed the engine after throwing the car into park. The only thing on my mind now was Nicole.

Where the fuck is she?

My heart rammed against my chest in anticipation as my wild eyes frantically searched every inch of our house while my feet moved on their own.

Not the kitchen… Dining area no… Living no…

A light shining into the hallway from a room caught my eyes and caused my feet to shift to it. I broke into a brisk walk, nearly running into Nicole's makeshift office.

She barely got a chance to spin her chair halfway around before I roughly grabbed her by her arms and lifted her onto her desk after swiping everything off the surface with a wide sweep of my arm. "Le—mhmpfh!" Her muffled squeal blended in with the harsh rip of her clothes as I tore away at them while devouring her lips hungrily.

Her hands slapped against my chest in protest as I pressed into her, trapping her further against my body. Breaking the messy kiss, I grabbed her face roughly. "Safe-word," I demanded in a raspy voice that almost didn't sound like my own.

Nicole's whimper squeezed out between her squished cheeks, and her heavy breaths fanned my face. "Bomb, and three shoulder taps if nonverbal."

Whatever words came out of her mouth next was swallowed by my mouth as I claimed her lips again, this time shoving my tongue deep into her mouth until her body jerked against mine with her gagging. Her frantic hands switched between clawing, hitting, and grabbing me as I pressed more and more into her until she could no longer inch away from me with her squirming.

Growling against her lips, I grabbed her ass to press her lower body against mine. "You feel that, zhizn moya ?" I growled out, grinding myself into her so she could feel how painfully hard I was. "Feel how hard I am for you?"

Glancing down, I couldn't help but let out a curt laugh when I saw the wet spot against my pants. "Fucking slut, already so wet, and I haven't done anything." Dragging my tongue across her lips, I slowly trailed it along her jaw to her neck.

Baring my teeth, I scraped it along her pulsating carotid as I continued to grind into her. I purposely rolled my hips slowly to get more friction against my aching member, but the tingling feeling zipping along the underside of my length made my pace pick up to press more into the feeling. It was only a few thrusts before I got too annoyed and pulled away with a frustrated hiss.

Grabbing her thighs, I pulled her to the edge of the desk until her ass hung off it. Spreading her legs wide into the air, I looked down at her nether regions. "What the…" My confused expression quickly shifted to an amused smirk. "Naughty girl." I chided playfully as I eyed the vibrating jewel plugging her ass.

Licking my lips, I stepped right up against her. With one hand firmly holding a leg of hers, I used the other to haphazardly undo my pants and pull my throbbing cock out. Quickly, I spit on her pussy, making her whimper and twitch.

Grinning down at her, I sloppily swiped the tip of my dick against her wet petals, spreading her slickness and my spit around to lube myself up. "Have you been thinking about this cock all night, my little whore? About how much I'm going to stretch this tight cunt of yours and how full I'm going to stuff it?" Leaning down, I breathed hotly against her ear before biting it. "About how you'll feel every inch of me thrust in and out of you?"

And just because I was an asshole, I slowly slipped my tip inside of her, but I stopped right after the first piercing slipped past her entrance. "Did you think about being taken from behind?" I chuckled deeply as I eased another inch into her moaning body. "So you can feel every bump and rub of my piercing right against your g-spot."

Unable to hold myself back any longer, I let go of my member to grab her other leg again. Spreading her legs as wide as possible, I pressed them down until she was almost bent in half. Then, with one hard thrust, I sunk myself balls deep in her with a feral groan. " Svyatoye der'mo ." I choked out a ragged breath while digging my fingers into the back of her plush thighs.

Shit.

The butt-plug in her made her already tight cunt impossibly tight to where it kind of hurt a little to be in her fully. Well, at least the passive vibrations from the toy made things a little more pleasurable and bearable as I adjusted fully.

God, if it sucked a little for me, then… "Empress, how are you feeling?" It was a little hard to discern whether the discomfort twisting at her face was a good one or not.

Her head nodded in response as her pursed lips let out a trembling breath. "Yeah, I'm okay." Wincing, she dug her nails into the flesh of my bottom. "Just feels so full," she shuddered.

Wanting to give her some mercy, I gave her some long and slow thrusts while she adjusted—it was also for me to adjust, too. But I stilled in her after a while when I noticed her relaxing expression.

"Lev, please," she begged through a sobbing moan, her hands pawing at my ass to try and push me more against her.

Scolding her with a tut of my tongue, I pulled back to just the tip and slammed back into her, violently jerking her. "Needy little whore, aren't you?" I teased with a dark chuckle, giving her lazy thrusts to tease her. "Please, what?" Reaching a hand down, I took one of her hard nipples between my thumb and forefinger, pinching it harshly enough to make her scream a little.

Whimpering pathetically, she looks at me with needy, wanton eyes while death gripping my hips and ass. "Please, fuck me like your whore." Her hips rocked against me with her pleading words. "Please, I need your cock to break me again."

Her insistent grinding made it hard for me to think straight. So, I pressed down hard against her, trapping her completely against the desk. Taking a moment, I let my burning eyes admire her beautiful body for the millionth time. I'd never get enough of the subtle curves of her waist or the flare of her hips that made her shapely legs look long and perfect. Her small breasts looked so perfect right now, all pressed together with how I had her body folded, making them pop slightly.

She was fucking divine.

A low hum rumbled from my chest as I ran a hand down and up her body, stopping at her neck to wrap my thick hand around the slender column. Pulling her up as much as possible, I leaned down the rest of the way until I was a hair away from her parted lips and half-hooded eyes. "Here's what's gonna happen," I started, staring deeply into her awe-struck eyes. "I'm going to ruin and break you, then I'll cherish you."

Kissing the corner of her lips, I dipped the tip of my tongue into her mouth teasingly. "I am going to fuck you like I don't love you," I whispered deeply against her lips with an intense gaze.

Nicole's eyes widened brightly in a smile at my words. "Y-you love me?" Her hopeful voice trembled against my lips.

Naturally, my lips warmed up in a genuine smile. "Of course, but those three words won't do my feelings for you any justice." I pressed my lips against her in a deep and passionate kiss, letting all my adoration and devotion pour into it. "So, I will show you how much I love you."

The blissful smile on my face quickly sharpened into a malicious one as my grip on her neck tightened until I heard her gasping breaths hitch sharply. "After I return the favor for all the things you've done to me." Taking her bottom lip between my teeth, I bit and pulled hard. "I am going to fucking break you until all you can do is beg for my cock to be in you twenty-four fucking seven."

"Oh God." Nicole shuddered under me, biting her bottom lip with her muffled moan.

Barking out a ridiculing laugh, I pulled my hips back and slammed into her a few times to work her up. "If that's how you see me, then you better start worshiping my cock like your life depends on it."

Carefully, I adjusted my hold on her neck to not crush her as I slammed into her harshly, making the desk bang against the wall with every thrust. I'd probably damage the wall or even put a hole through it after I was done with Nicole, but fuck it. There was no way I'd ease off, not with how Nicole's eyes rolled to the back of her head as her happy mouth hung open to sing her beautiful moans. The only thing I was mindful of was Nicole's head.

Yeah, I wanted to fuck her until there was not a thought in her head, but I rather not give her a concussion in the process. I was careful to keep her head from hitting the wall with my hard thrusts so far, but one slip and my brothers would have another embarrassing story to put into their blackmail treasure box.

Sucking in a sharp breath, I let go of her neck and moved that same hand to the back of her head. "Shit, you're squeezing me so much," I remarked with a breathless chuckle.

Nicole could barely get out a full sentence through her dazed moans. "Coming… Too good… Fuck!" Her body tensed and trembled with her soft sob as she orgasmed again.

Gritting my teeth, I sucked in another chilling breath as I felt the familiar ache in my balls. Every orgasm from her made it harder and harder to hold myself back from exploding in her with how perfectly her soft walls clenched around my thick cock.

Even if this first load didn't mean the end tonight, I wanted this rough fucking to last a little longer. I wanted to push beyond that edge for as long as possible. Also, I had just a little more pent-up energy to expend.

Hearing her scream my name in such lustful anguish brought a twisted smile to my face as I watched her come undone. "Lev, I can't! Too much!" she sobbed loudly.

Fortunately for her, that big orgasm of hers drew my own out with a deep groan. "Fuck, that's it, Nicole, be my good girl and squeeze out every last drop," I encouraged her with a soft smile and some butterfly kisses to her face as I slowly pumped in and out to work out the ache in my balls.

Burying my face into her neck, I inhaled her scent to calm myself as I lowered her legs and wrapped them around my waist. "Breathe, baby, breathe," I shushed and soothed her, stroking her messy locks. "Thank you," I whispered sweetly into her ear. "You were so amazing and perfect."

Slowly and carefully, I stood up straight and picked Nicole up, being mindful to keep us connected as I moved us to the bedroom. "I'm going to be so sore tomorrow, but I don't care." She chuckled weakly against my neck between her little nips.

Chuckling along with her, I carefully laid down in the bed with her. "When are you not sore after a night of sex?" I remarked with an arrogant smirk, earning a smack to the chest.

Wincing softly, she shifted her hips to straddle me more comfortably. "Just because I let you be in charge tonight doesn't mean you can be an asshole, you jerk."

Her chest heaved against mine, and her heavy breaths chilled my sweaty chest with each exhale. "We are so going to have to shower after this somehow…" She chuckled dryly. "You're still covered in blood and sweat from your assignment, and now it's all on me."

Maybe that was why I found her a little more alluring. I didn't take much notice of the fact that I had dirtied her with my tainted body. Well, the riveting thought sped away as it came when my anger started to boil a little in my blood.

I could feel my eyes narrow as my nostrils flared with each seething breath. The fact that she was covered in some other man's blood was unacceptable. Granted, it was my fault, but still, I didn't like anything of another man touching her or staining her body.

So, with an audible huff, I hauled us off the bed and took us to the shower in a brooding silence. I wanted to get the blood off her this instant. No, scratch that. I needed to remove it from her and then mark her as mine again.

Without a word or sound, I turned the water on, letting all the shower heads drench us with hot water. I didn't bother grabbing the sponge or washcloth to clean her. My hands were more than enough to rub away all the blood smeared on her face and body. Some bits took a little more effort to remove, but I didn't stop touching every inch of her until she was pristine again.

Once she was clean, I grabbed her face and kissed her deeply. She kissed back for a moment, but her hands wailed against my chest in protest after a few seconds. "Lev, what the hell? What's going on with you? What's with the grumpy silence? Did I say or do something to set you off? And why the hell did you just drag me into the shower like this when we were comfortable in bed?" Question after question flew out of her mouth, each one growing in pitch with her irritation as she stood there with her arms crossed.

Clicking my tongue, I turned my back to her for a minute to recollect myself. I don't know why I found it difficult to verbalize my frustration to her right now. I mean, it shouldn't be this hard to tell her how I hated the sight of another man's blood on her. Yet, here I was, pouting in the shower like some petulant child.

Nicole's sigh was almost lost to the shower, but I caught it. "Little lion." Her soft voice echoed throughout the shower.

The warmth of her body was stark in contrast to the hot water, surprisingly. Silky softness snaked around my waist, holding me against my lover's tantalizing body. Oddly enough, a chill ran through my body at the contact with Nicole before I felt myself naturally relax into her.

Her soft voice rang out throughout the shower again, coaxing me. "Talk to me. I won't get upset or mad or anything. I just want to know what made you flip a switch." The pads of her fingers danced along my abdomen and pelvis, following the contours of my muscles.

Closing my eyes, I let my head fall back to let the water pelt my face for a while. Then, my head fell forward, and I sucked in a deep breath. "I…" I thought I was ready, but my words caught themselves in my throat. Shutting my mouth, I moved my tongue around to loosen it up. "I got upset at the sight of another person's blood on you," I strained out in a single breath. "I don't want any part of another man to touch you or be on your body for any period of time," I admitted in a small voice as I stroked the back of her hands with my thumbs.

Nicole's arms loosened, and a soft push pressed into my hip, prompting my body to turn around. I braced myself to face a disappointed or irritated girlfriend, but much to my surprise, I was met with a proud smile. Her body pressed itself fully against mine again, and a kiss was placed on my chest, right over the tattoo she gave me. "Good job. I'm proud of you for telling me," she praised me with a soft grin. "And thanks for not overreacting because I sure as hell would have thrown a huge ass fit if the situation was reversed," she mused with a chuckle .

Cracking a smile and chuckle, I hugged her back for a long minute before letting go to finish our shower. I still needed to make love to her and cover her body with kisses to taint her my essence again.

Actually… Maybe I should cover her in my cum instead.

The dirty thought sent a shiver of excitement down my spine as I let my eyes linger on Nicole while she dried her hair without a care in the world. I was already done and remained leaning against the bathroom doorframe with all the patience in the world for my lover to finish.

Fortunately, Nicole wasn't one to have some hour-long bedtime skincare routine or some ridiculous ritual. I wasted no time scooping her into my arms when she turned her head and flashed me a cheeky smile.

Giggling, Nicole tightly wrapped her arms around my neck. "I'm surprised you didn't fuck me in the shower," she commented with some confusion laced in her voice.

Snorting out a short laugh, I shook my head softly as I carried her to bed. "I'm not making love to you for the first time in the shower," I remarked, grinning at the sight of her cheeks blushing up. "Plus, you've made it clear that you don't like shower sex." Apparently, shower sex wasn't all it was cracked up to be for Nicole, and after we tried it a few times, she struck it from our list of places to fuck.

Once we reached our bed, I threw her on it rather unceremoniously, causing her to giggle and glare at me playfully. "Jerk," she shot at me with a roll of her eyes.

Chuckling, I pounced on her, caging her between my arms and legs. "If I'm not a jerk, then something is seriously wrong with me," I retorted with a small laugh.

As I lowered my head, I took her face in my hands to hold her still. "So fucking perfect." Kiss. "Divine." Kiss. "Lovely." Kiss. "Beautiful." Kiss. "And you're all mine." My voice dipped lower and lower with each word until I practically growled.

Carefully, I gingerly trailed my hands down her body, cupping her breasts and fondling them. Reluctantly, I left her lips to kiss down her face and neck. Hearing her soft sighs and moans of pleasure jolted my heart to pump harder until it was banging in my ears.

I left no inch of her neck untouched. It was a constant barrage of kisses, nips, and licks, along with the occasional love bite that would last for days. Once I was satisfied with leaving my mark on the side of her neck, a nicely drawn out 'L' with hickeys, I moved down to her lovely breasts. Of course, I didn't leave them unscathed. Her chest and breasts were adorned with scattered marks varying in size and shape.

As I busied myself with painting her body with my marks, I carefully pinched and pulled at her sensitive nipples until I had her grinding against my thigh shamelessly. "Don't come," I whispered against her nipple before taking it into my hungry mouth.

Sucking and licking, I spent a good moment teasing her nipple before pulling off with a soft pop. "Work yourself up, but don't come. I want you to hold it all back for when I'm in you. I don't want you clenching around nothing when my cock is here to receive it," I told her with a teasing smile before going over to her other nipple to give it some attention.

Much to my surprise, she listened. I half expected her to shoot me a 'fuck you' glare before taking her orgasms for herself. So, when I felt her juices coat my thigh but never felt the rush of her gushing or squirting, I was thoroughly impressed. "Lev, please, no more teasing," she begged between her gasping moans after she tangled her fingers into my hair. "I need you in me." Her legs shifted to coil around my waist, and she pressed me against her by putting her feet against my ass. "Right. Now," she demanded, grinding her slickened cunt along the underside of my cock, making me groan.

Smiling happily, Nicole gripped my shoulders as she slowly rolled her hips against me. "Fuck I love your cock so much." She sighed out a moan. "Your piercings always feel so amazing, and the way you know how to work your cock to get every spot of mine… Just…" Biting her bottom lip, she let out a deep moan as she pressed herself harder against me.

Then, her smile widened into a small laugh. "You know," she started, locking her eyes with mine, "You never told me the story about your piercings. "

The mention of my hardware made me groan internally as my eyes rolled. "And I never will for as long as I live," I grumbled, turning my face away to hide the embarrassed flush of my cheeks.

There were only two people in the whole world who knew about how I ended up with a full Jacob's Ladder on my dick, me and Nikolai; the ladder only knew because I had no other option, but I made him swear to secrecy.

Nicole's amused and cheerful laugh filled the air. "Oh, little lion, who said I'd give you a choice?" The dark edge of determination in her voice sent shivers down my spine.

But it went as fast as it came. Her sharp smile softened back up as she stroked my face tenderly. "Well, we can bring that back later." Her hips lightly bucked at me, pulling my mind back to the activity at hand.

Sliding my hands around her body, I slipped one arm around her waist, lifting her hips a little as I did so. My other went around her upper back, and I cradled the back of her head with the same hand. Holding her body fully against mine, I let my lips ghost against hers as I moved my hips around until my tip pressed into her. Keeping myself barely in, I held myself back from fully entering her.

This would be a first for us. We've fucked every which way til Sunday and beyond, but never once have we taken it slow and sensual.

Never have we made love to each other.

Until now.

"I love you," I confessed with a shaky breath and groan when I slowly filled her to the brim. "So much," I breathed against her lips, shivering a little as the sound of her blissful moan sang beautifully in my ears. "I love you so fucking much, Nicole." My voice cracked from the overwhelming crash of emotions assaulting my body.

Resting my forehead against hers, I kissed her lips with a soft whimpering sob. "I'm so sorry for not admitting it before, for being such a coward about it." The number of times I withdrew from her when I saw the closeness in her eyes or heard the dreaded four-letter word fall from her mouth was a few times too many .

Nicole's body arched more into me as her mouth hung open with a silent moan. Her soft walls gripped my cock in a vice grip as her orgasm shook her delicate body. It took her a few seconds to come down from the high of her orgasm enough to smile brightly at me with teary eyes. "Lev." Her own tender voice cracked a little as her hand stroked my cheek. "It's okay. I know you love me, that you always have." Bigger, her smile grew until she was full-on beaming at me with so much giddiness that I thought she'd explode into a ball of sunshine. "I always saw it in your eyes whenever you looked at me before you would start to fight yourself on it. I never pushed you to admit any of it because I wanted you to come to things on your own terms."

Her lips met mine in a soul-stealing kiss; to say that it was breathtaking would've done it an injustice. Those soft brownish amber eyes of hers melted my heart the longer she gazed into my icy blues. "I'm so happy you came to it sooner rather than later." She mused with a giggle before kissing me again. "I'm so proud of you, little lion." Her praise caused a zap of pleasure to shoot down my spine straight to my cock, causing me to twitch inside of her. "I know it couldn't have been easy for you one bit, so I really am so proud of you."

Gulping, I forced out a chuckle and bucked my hips a little, making Nicole's breath hitch. "Trying to butter and sweeten me up, zhizn moya ?" I teased, grinding my hips more to rub my piercings against her sensitive walls. "You're going to give me an ego if you keep praising me like that," I joked with a hearty laugh that mixed with hers when she joined.

"Oh, shut up and show me how much you love me," Nicole murmured against my lips. "Show me how a bratva boss properly loves his woman."

"With pleasure." I grinned smugly before drowning my groan out with her lips.

Tightening my arms around her waist, I angled her hips slightly to easier thrust at her sweet spot with each movement. My hips moved at a rather slow pace, dragging out the pleasure for both of us with sensual strokes rather than ravaging her with hard and fast thrusts that would break her body. "Fuck you feel so amazing, baby," I groaned breathlessly against her lips.

Breathing heavily, Nicole smiled against my lips, darting her tongue out to run it along the seam of my mouth. "I really love how big you are and how you fill me just perfectly every time." She giggled before busying herself with kissing my face. "Fill me with your cum, Lev. Stuff me and get me pregnant."

It was hard to maintain my slow pace after hearing that. Holding her firm, I started to move her body along with my thrusts, bringing her down to meet each and every buck of my hips. My strokes were still full and sensual, being careful to pull out nearly all the way before going to the hilt on the way in.

Paired with her sweet moans and pleas to knock her up, the feeling of her walls squeezing me to coax my release out made it impossible for me to hold it back after a while.

An ache gripped at my clenched jaw as I gritted my teeth and groaned loudly. "That's it, baby, squeeze me just like that." I gasped with a jagged breath. "Oh fuck, Nicole, fuck, that's—shit! Mhmm, take it all, take all my cum into your greedy little womb." My hips lightly bucked and jerked in short bursts to try and work out as much of my seed as possible.

Looking down at her, I could perfectly imagine the feeling of her round belly pressing against me when I'd take her in such a state.

Fucking hell… She's gonna look so adorable all round and pregnant.

The image of her smiling warmly at me while rubbing her swollen stomach sent a shiver through me and caused my throbbing cock to squeeze out one last spurt.

"I love you so much, Lev." Her voice sounded so ethereal in my post-climax haze.

Smiling like a dope, I kissed her languidly. "I love you too, Nicole."

Slumping down beside her on the bed, I pulled her close and held her tightly. "I'm not pulling out," I murmured against her hair as I felt myself drifting in and out of sleep.

"You can't stay like this all night. You're gonna cramp up or something," she worried with a weak chuckle.

"Don't care. Worth it." My words slurred out groggily as I lost my fight with the impending darkness.

"Good night, zhizn moya ."

"Good night, ??i ca ."
