at the supermarket and suddenly hit with a deep, visceral impulse to Clean. no idea where the fuck it came from. have been riding it for genuinely 2.5 hours and it's just starting to peter out. but so forceful that i'm shaken. new terrifying emotion fathomed like the silhouette of an undersea beast seen under the ice
#??????#well. did a lot of shit ive been putting off. sitting on my couch in a very clean blast radius#to delete#man the nights>days switch...#maybe its cause for the last 4 nights this is around the time i hit my shiftly celsius... my bodys just anticipating that boost#and loading up my jobs queue?#i deep cleaned the cat litter boxes n put liners in? covered and moved my harp like ive been meaning to do for months?#vacuumed? mopped??? threw out old food? took out all the trashes? requested med refills??

Sylus is for the girlies who can't sleep and end up spiralling at 3am. Opening the app and my dude is wide awake like "hey kitten you okay?". Wdym his sleep schedule is unconventional, it works for me.
#i hate disturbing the others at night they need their beauty sleep#but i also love that i can switch to Sylus and he'll be awake and happy to interact#i can run to that man at any time of day and he'll be there#my ex could never#love and deepspace#lads sylus#love and deepspace sylus

this is a For Me post, but i think itâs cool the way my fic is basically an amalgamation of marauders things from 2020 and present day.
bc nowhere man was my first Ever attempted longfic, like at the time i had only ever written a wolfstar oneshot (it was ass mind u). i stopped mid through their 1st year late 2020 and picked it up again dec 2023 after reading CR so 15 y/o and 18 y/o me are like collaborating on this thing.
honestly the fact that i did abandon it was actually perfect bc i know how to write longer fics nowđ like given that iâm juggling writing 7 povs where iâm at rn omg 15 y/o me could NEVERRR. i struggled with 5 povs then abandoned at 35k for a reason âŠ
and iâd give examples of the 2020 and 2024isms iâve put together but then iâm just spoiling it all. but for the most part itâs the WOMEN. lily and mary were hella involved before but i didnât know wtf to do with anyone else (cough DORCAS MARLENE). iâve healed.
#sappy bc i hit 200k last night#and it was also a huge wolfstar thing and i was like damn. i could not have written this at 15#the marauders#marauders#nowhere man#marauders women#dorcas meadowes#mentioning her specifically bc her stuff is BIGGG soonish#like 44 days soonish#but anyway#writer things#iâd also like to say itâs rly obvious where i wrote things Now#used to switch povs like 6 times in earlier chapters wtf was going on#iâll do like 3 switches max now but itâs usually 1-2. slay

#THE GRUDGE! g. satoru

â sum. perhaps screwing your ex-husband while the kids are out trick-or-treating wasnât the best idea. but with him, the only treat he wants to trick is not in a basketâitâs right between your legs.. boo!
wc. 6.6k
warnings. fem! reader, ex-husband gojo, mentions of (2) kids, unprotected, pwp, mild hatefĂčcking, kakashi references eheh, gojo's still whipped, filthy dirty talk, prone bone, praise, implied brĂ©eding, cunnÄ«lingus / face sÄ«tting, bĂłob fondling, possessive themes, size kink, overstim, brat taming, fıngering, squırting, petnames.
†kinktober mlist

at the gojoâs, you mentally smack yourself as your feet step onto the scream-themed door mat that reads âstep if you dare.â part of you wished no one would answer the doorbell, but part of you solely wished he didnât answer. it was about seven thirty at night, and with it being saturday, you had the kids for a few days. after that, youâd switch with satoruâyour jeering hot-headed ex-husband. you decided since you got off early youâd take them trick-or-treating for a bit. but itâs to your utmost âsurpriseâ that satoru opens the door.
âoh! and who are you supposed to be pretty lady?â heâd hum, digging his hands into his pockets. satoru purposely tilts his head down, getting a good look at you while raising a brow. of course, he always went out for his costumes. this year, heâs wearing some sort of green flak jacket, a mask, and a long-sleeved shirt underneath with dark blue pants.
with a grump, you tuck your arms underneath your pits with your purse clinging onto your shoulder. âmyself,â and your eyes flicker toward his messy frosted hair thatâs spikier than usual. satoruâs wide headband partially droops below his left eye before you finish mumbling, âwho are you even supposed to be.â
âuh, kakashi hatake. the man, the myth, the legend,â and satoru leans back against the front door, pulling out a fake kunai. a hand runs through his hair before he snickers at your unamused expression. tough crowd. âaw, you must be here for the kids, yeah? well, theyâre out with nanami ân suguru trick-or-treatinâ. just some blocks down,â and satoru stepped a few feet back once you trod your way inside, mutely cursing yourself that youâd probably have to wait until they got back. as long as they were with nanami and suguruâyou didnât have a problem. satoru shuts the timber wooden-made door behind him before speaking smugly. âoh. sure.. sure, just make yourself right at home, wifey.â
âdonât call me that.â
âjust did.â
oh, brother.
the moment you stepped foot into your old spacey luxurious townhome satoru had built personally for you and your kidsâthe memories all came crawling back. the two of you didnât end off on a bad noteâdivorces happen, and you both maintained a healthy relationship with the kids. you each agreed to co-parent, youâd get the week and heâd get the weekend - sometimes switching and vice versa.
âexcuse the mess,â satoru hums, grabbing your coat. he tosses it over his shoulder before giving you another up-down glance. âif i knew you were cominâ over around this hour iâd clean a bit,â and he watches you struggle to keep eye contact. âhey. sweetheart, youâre lookinâ down again.â
with a scoff, you meet his gaze again. and fuck, does he look like heâs gotten even more handsome.
satoru gojo was always attractiveâthere was no doubt about it.
he was in his mid-thirties now, the two of you had settled down after college before having two kids of your own.
again, there wasnât a reason for your divorce that was relatively a bad thing. you two just both decided to part ways - but of course, it was lots of unprovoked tension.
the costume that he wore was apparently based on some character named âkakashiâ whatever, and like always, he dressed the part. every year once the end of october would come around, satoru would wear an outfit just âcause. he stood tall, with serrated white hair that was jagged from all angles with the headband hanging off a side of his eye. in the middle part, the symbol was some kind of swirl that was never-ending.
satoru rambled to you that it was something . . something, a hidden leafâhonestly, you tuned out.
he wore the mask part too, covering up a good portion of his face from the nose down, and even had the red slanting scar that kakashi had near the left side of his eye that was probably makeup.
âi donât wanna fight, gojo.â
âhmph. so itâs âgojoâ now,â he rolls his eyes, hanging your coat up near the rack. you take a quick peer around the room, seeing a plethora of toys and multicolored legos everywhere. it nearly makes you smile, remembering when satoru stepped on one of his youngest daughterâs legos. satoru leans against the glassy kitchen island, watching you take a seat near the crimson-red stool before humming. âand i donât wanna fight either. in fact, i jusâ wanna talk.â
âso . . talk then,â you murmur, shifting your weight in your feet.
a brief smile creases against both sides of his lips before he grins. âsoooo,â and itâs an awkward pause. you eye your ex-husband and heâs got somewhat of a bashful expression. rimy eyes of his dart toward your handâyour fingers specifically before he slyly coos. âi see youâre still wearinâ your wedding ring.â
shit.
he had a point.
after all this time, you still had your ring on. satoru did tooâhe also kept his ring on all the time, happily flashing it in front of countless numbers of women whoâd try to hit on him.
you honestly donât know why you still held on to it, let alone wear it, and to your surpriseâyou thought heâd stop wearing his those long seven months ago when the two of you officially split.
you bit the inside of your cheek before letting off a snarky, âshut up.â
satoru nearly snickers before he leans up close to you, only a few inches away. heâs so close that you get a loud wafting whiff of his citrusy cologne.
you remember the exact brand too, and it wasnât exactly cheap either. heâd buy at least a dozen whenever the two of you went out shopping together - well, used to.
thereâs so much tension between you both that you could cut it with a knife - the tension was thick, and the awkward dull pauses only made it even more intense.
thereâs an annoying voice in your brain thatâs screaming at you to just screw it - screw him, make up for lost time, and just . . . kiss him.
you did want to kiss satoru, and your eyes found themselves glancing toward his pearly pink lips that were almost always naturally glossed.
satoruâs eyes intently lock against yours for a few seconds before he casually brings a thumb up to the corner of your mouth, wiping away a bit of your lip gloss before cooing huskily. he expects you to pull away, but you donâtâ in fact, you lean into his touch. once he notices, the only thing he replies with is a playful curt utter of,
âmake me.â
so you do, but . . not in the way he expected.
not that satoru gojo was ever a man to complain though, especially with you.
and thatâs when he found himself in quite a lewd predicament. satoruâs laid back against his cushiony padded mattress with you straddling his perfectly sculptured chin. a gloved hand of his grip near your right hip before he strums a thumb down your sopping wet entrance.
glossy - itâs prettier like heâs never seen it, and he canât help but lick his lips like an animal preparing to feast the second you start to smear yourself against his chin.
âyâknowww baby, when you told me to shut up i didnât think you meant sitting on my fâmmph,â and you cut him off mid-sentence by softly planting your cunt back on his mouth.
satoru grunts, bringing his free hand to wrap around the other unoccupied corner of your waist. he grunts, dipping his tongue inside before the familiar taste comes crawling back to his spiraling tastebuds. your taste, he missed your sweetness . . almost as much as he missed you.
as you sweetly moan within each dragging second, you glance down at him with hazed-blown pupils. shifting your wobbly weight and knees against his face, you start to feel his stubble rub on your skin. it almost tickles - but oh, you werenât laughing.
his tongue had you doing quite the opposite.
âf- fuck,â you huff out, already starting to feel the plunging heaves of your stomach commence. sure, this was probably a bad idea, and sure, you and him probably needed to have an actual conversation at some point but now - you didnât care about words.
you didnât care about anything, and part of you kind of missed him.
perhaps his tongue was a majority reason for that part, and each time he rummages inside the deep secluded parts of your pussy, you let off cute individual mewling whimpers. satoruâs always been skilled, and he knew just how to please you.
his tongue always knew how to remind you of how much itâs missed its favorite meal.
curl after fucking curl, heâs leisurely spelling out letters and shapes and symbols with his tongue, taking every few seconds to swallow. satoru groans against your slobbering cunt, feeling you briefly thrust up against his nose and he canât help but smell your tangy glacĂ© coated sex.
itâs pleasantly sweet, and for a moment, scintillating blue eyes meet back up toward you. âh- heh, âs this why you came over? to shut me up ân use my fuckinâ mouth, sweetheart?â
âgod, you talk t.. too much,â you moan, grabbing a fistful of his hair. in a way - that was true.
satoru was the definition of a blabbermouth.
heâd just talk and talk and talk . . yapping your ear off until you shut him right up in the best (and his personal favorite) way possible - sitting on his pretty face.
a pompous grin stretches across each corner of his lips whilst his jawâs already dripping due to your slick that paints near the outer crevices of his thin lips. slow, it starts to slowly trickle down his chin at a snail-like pace, creating a shimmery coat of gloss that dribbles underneath his slack mandible.
satoru lays his long pointed tongue flat - savoring every single drop before heâs starting to suck against your clit.
âoh! fuck, right there âtoru, riiiight there,â and heâs just sloppy. the mask part of his costume was pulled down to his neck as he was using his upper and bottom lip to munch against your sobbing pussy at irregularly paced intervals. your legs failed to stay still and you could already feel the carnal slope of your back starting to form an obtuse-like arch. âfuck, fuckinâ spit on it, âtoru. pleasepleaseee.â
cute.
youâre calling him âtoru again, and it makes him cockily grin knowing it was his tongueâs doing.
âwifeyâs still as nasty as ever,â satoru whispers against your leaky folds, sliding a thin middle finger near your wet entrance. with a loud âpshâ you end up gushing out a bit abruptly and you whine loudly. your thighs rapidly snap together as you blink thrice, feeling his swollen lips glue against your pussy. âmmh, still a wet girl too. my wet girl.â you peek down at satoru whoâs the literal epitome of the word smug.
heâs smearing his entire face against your teary slabbering cunt, spitting on it before lapping it right back up again.
you missed his nasty mouth - badly, and it makes your eyes shamelessly roll backward as you start to frailly rut your rickety hips into his mouth.
satoru brings two willowy fingers toward your slit before sliding the icy jewel rock of his wedding ring against your dribbling cunt.
wet, you were soaked and you let off shivering labored breaths once he started to toy with your saturated slick entrance.
with widened doe eyes, you meet his esurient-filled gaze and he hums at you. âlisten to how damn wet she is,â he huffs, and you moan at the ridiculously drenching sounds of your pussy. heâs playing with you from between your thighs, chin still dripping with insane amounts of your syrupy juices. âmhm, i know, i know,â and you feel the feeble weight of your thighs quiver the second heâs focusing his attention primarily on your cunt now and not you.
all six eyes were fixated between your legsâ
satoru strums the pad of his thumb down your drooling slit before gradually rolling his tongue from top-to-fucking-bottom.
heâs nasty, slithering the tip of his tongue everywhere until your toes curl and youâre letting off the cutest shrilling sounds. satoru even starts to spell out âm-a-r-r-y m-eâ and as lewd as it was, heâs proposing to your pussy. he needed you, and satoru knew the both of you divorcing was nearly inevitable, but he missed you.
he especially missed the way you tasted - so sweet, he could eat you out for hours even with his jaw sore ân locked. satoruâs a pussy pleaser, making you draw out sweet cries of more as he slurps you clean, his tongue occasionally sliding toward your puckering hole.
âsatoru⊠ngh,â you whimper, the grip of your hand against his hair getting stronger. youâre fucking his face, grinding your slick against his mouth while watching his pretty frosty lashes flap. youâre squelching profusely, and each sloshing slosh of your pussy makes his dick twitch in his pants. âgoddd, âm gonna cum. make me cum, fuck.â
âletâs see what she thinks,â he purrs, lustrous polished lips flushing into a pearly coat of clear once he licks them. satoruâs entirely pussy drunk, and you shudder once he slowly inserts a lanky middle finger. with a loud âpop!â sound, it dexterously slides itself in, rummaging past the tight ring of your entrance.
fuck, he had such long fingers.
you almost forgot - satoru always joked with you how being âthe strongestâ came with having six-inch fingers and he wasnât fucking kidding . .
âhm, should my baby cum? does she deserve it?â and your lips curl up into a pout. heâs serious, having an entire conversation with your pussy. you moaned, maintaining a stiff grip on his hair before satoru started to smear circles against your cunt.
again, youâre just wet. your slickness amused him and satoru canât help but playfully pat your pretty soddened pussy with the center of his palm once he doesnât get a reply. the only reply he does get is the cute sloshing sounds that repeatedly gush between your poor quivery thighs.
youâre slowing yourself against his mouth as you straddle him, whimpering at the feeling of his thin digit piercing its way inside of you. youâre close, and you can feel yourself glitching and spasming the second the tip of his finger grazes past your g-spot.
already, heâs located it like âxâ marks the spot. your jaw was dropped, and you were on the verge of euphoric death.
satoru stretched your cunt out perfectly with just one finger, and sure . . youâve had your fair share of intimacy with your ex-husband, but fuck did it always feel like the first time.
you couldnât help but start to drool a bit, weakly rutting your hips against his face as youâre leisurely getting closer to the brink of your edge.
itâs carnal, youâre stupidly crisscrossed with your eyes flickering back and forth like turning signals before satoru starts to playfully nibble against your cunt again. this time though, heâs adding in another finger and the spongy pressure thatâs being played with inside of you earns out a sweet honeyed gasp that sounds like a breathy shriek!
âtoru, satoâfuck, âm cumming, âm gonna cum,â and your words repeated themselves over and over. youâre like a broken recurrent record on a looping vinyl. your cunt continues to sloppily rest against his perfect crooked lips the entire time as youâre blissfully coming undone.
satoruâs staring at you the entire time, practically undressing you with his eyes. he grunts, spotting how your perked nipples noticeably prodded through your silvery blouse. âugh, fuuuck.â and it hits you like a crashing wave that slams its way into shore.
satoruâs still heartily pumping two slender digits in and out of your splashing cunt whilst you gush right on him, weak defeated hips losing their stability.
you were whimpering, tasting your candied orgasm on your tongueâit felt that good to where itâs like you could taste every nerve against your salivated tastebuds.
only satoru could make you cum on his tongue like this. you were speechless - frantically panting as you released your hand from his ghostly white strands. heâs still leaking your juices from the crannies of his lips before he exhales deeply.
âyeaaah, atta girl. lay it on me,â and you moan as heâs still sliding his long tongue in between the sopping folds of your sensitive cunt, gradually pulling out his lengthy digit pillars of fingers. âfuck, yâr so hot when you try âta put me in my place, sweetheart.â
âstop talking,â you pant, getting off of him. satoru raises a pallid brow, and he grows amused once you suddenly push him to lie flat against his back. with a raspy âughâ he lands back against the velvet-colored pillows, a sly smirk marinating against his complacent features.
like a slut - he merrily manspreads just for you, long legs spread wide apart with a huge bulge sticking out of his pants.
heâs still got the shinobi headband on, part of it slumping down his left eye. âoh, whatâs this?â he lowly gruffs, eyeing you from head to toe again.
this time though, itâs more sensual. satoruâs taking in every piece of fabric thatâs protecting your skin, watching as you slowly undress yourself.
he could feel his boner excruciatingly rubbing against his pants the more he watched. heâs taking in your appetizing presented curves . . so pretty. especially after having two kids - his kids.
âgonna ride me, yeah?â he jibes, continuing once you were now left in nothing but a matching set of panties and bra.
coincidentally - the colors matched his exact eye color, and satoru always had a thing for you wearing clothes that matched his eyes. but like always, he just kept on talking. he was too cocky for his good, and maybe one more fuck was just what you needed. what you both needed.
just . . one . . more,
right?
well, thatâs what you told yourself.
but all that went out the window the second youâre aligning yourself on his cock. satoru takes a sharp three-second breath, ogling at your every move. itâs like a game of chess. heâs waiting for you - for your cunt to make its move against his throbbing mushroomy tip.
two big hands of his wrap around your waist and he grunts lowly. feeling your slick cunt maneuver itself against his angry reddened tip makes his head slightly toss back in feral rapture.
his tipâitâs got a coral blush, and you let off a moan at feeling his hooked fat plump crownhead try to plummet its way in.
itâs rude, not caring to introduce itself to your cunt but slam its way in instead, asking if your insides remember him.
and it does - it definitely does.
âohhh fuck,â you sob out a needy moan, your hips eagerly making two solid taut bucks against him.
satoru groans against your ear, swollen sack peeling back as youâre still straddling him. your body, it was in his arms again and he couldnât help but feel you everywhere.
starting at your hips, he holds them tight, tracing the callused scarred tips of fingers all around the curvature of your body before trailing down toward the juncture of your rear. âgod, donât know how much i missed you ân your smart mouth,â and as you let off a surprised gasp, satoru grabs a nice chunk of your ass. âmissed this ass just as much.â
âbet you did,â you puff, full lungs already on the verge of collapsing. heâs huge - and barely the tip was in and you could already feel your pussy starting to throw a fit of tantrums. satoruâs girth made him stretch more, and for a second you let off another sweet moan before meeting his gaze.
heâs got a delicious curve to him that always makes your insides twist and churn. itâs a feeling youâll probably never get used to.
âwhatâs with the smirk? somethinâ funny?â
âyou, baby,â satoru titters, giving you a haughty head nod. you feel your cunt throb as youâre trying to continue to lower yourself down on his cock but the stretch - fuck, pretty soon your poor cunt was about to be met with max fucking capacity.
satoruâs sparkly heavy-lidded eyes linger on you before he cups your chin, swiping a thumb across your wet quavering lips. âall that talk ân you still canât take me. thought i trained my wifeâs pussy good,â and with a teasing pout, he shrugs. âguessss not!â
âfuck you.â you moan, mentally groaning the second you felt yourself getting more soaked, just from his words alone.
pathetic - and yet, you wanted more.
satoru clicks his tongue, and with a blink of an eye, he now has you flipped over. you gasp, landing flat on your chest as heâs got your wrists restrained against your back.
satoru rolls his eyes, sprawling out your weak-kneed legs all the way apart to get a good glimpse of your sopping pussy from the back.
god, in his mind - it should have been a crime to be this wet. your sopping, pearly translucent molasses of your slick stream down your pulsing entrance and he grunts.
âfuck you,â he repeats, although he says it cheekily. even though you werenât even facing him anymore you could almost visibly see the annoying shit-eating grin plastering on his face.
from ear to ear with each of his dimples piercing each wry crevice of his mouth, he's so smug--bastard.
your back arches and you moan the second he starts to smack his rotund tip against your pussy. âmyyy, what a fuckinâ mess,â and you suck your teeth, feeling satoruâs loud spanks hit louder. each time his fat cockhead thumps itself against your wet outer folds, the vibrations make you shiver from the waist down.
the tingly tenderness makes your toes immediately curl up once more and your canorous-like moans start to become muffled once you dig your teeth into the edge of a nearby pillow. âstill wet after alllll this time like a good messy girl,â he grits. with another smack of his tip, your leg twitches in response. âooh, she likes that,â and satoru softly spreads your saturated cunt lips apart with two fingers just to see your pulse throb in full filthy action. âfuuck, sheâs achinâ for it. look at that pretty âlil throb. so cute.â
âare you gonna fuck me or nââ
âlisten, honey,â and you moan at the sudden husky drop of his voice. satoru softly wraps a few fingers around your throat, pressing his slim body right against your own. he drops your wrist, watching you sink into the mattress as limp-like. heâs so close that you could feel the outline of his abs prods against his shirt.
inching his lips near the shell of your earlobe, he starts to pant. heavy, sinister breath that ends up making you throb ten times harder. âiâm gonna fuck you,â he grunts, feeling your ass cutely try to jerk its way against him. the costume part of his pants was lazily pulled down, reaching the low area of his ankles. with a husky sigh, satoru brings his tip near the dripping entrance of your sloppy doused cunt. âmight as well fuck that bratitude out of ya too while âm at it,â and you moan once heâs slowly starting to sink his way in.
satoru grabs ahold of your torso, lifting you slightly to a certain degree. your ass was raised just a few meters with your face smushed against the satiny made bedsheets.
his eyes dart down your body for another time and now, heâs just openly gawking at your exposed skin - your gorgeous physique.
satoru could stare at you all day if he could. âf- fuhâfuck,â you croak, plump lips forming into a hoop-like âoâ the moment heâs easing his way inside. there goes his ridiculous girth again, there goes his fat length that never fails to rearrange your clingy needy insides.
your tummy dips from each inch thatâs gradually disappearing inside of you like a never-before-seen magic trick until heâs starting to gruffly groan. satoruâs already breaking a frigidly cold sweat.
it was just him feeling your covetous wet cunt voluntarily swallow him up - squeezing him tightly like a vice until you wring him dry. your pussyâs holding him hostage, and with the tight firm grasp you had against him, you never wanted to let go. â âtoruuu, âs fuckinâ big.â
âallll for you,â he drags out his words through raspy breathy sentences. chalky white brows of his compress together as heâs starting to feel the brief twinge of pleasure that courses through his beefy clenched thighs. with hooded cunt-drunk eyes, satoru already heard your gargling pussy trying to get more bratty words in. âall. for. you,â
and he punctuated his words just like he punctuated his merciless, sloppy thrusts.
the first thrust was rigid, the second thrust was sensual, and the third was damn near powerful. .
you moan loudly, feeling him caress tender circles near the exposed nape of your neck with his thumb as he tries to start up a sufficient pace. it took him a moment before he was fully in, making sure you felt and remembered every single inch.
satoru expands through your cunt like a domain.. the more carnal lewd way though.
it makes you shiver, and with his weight pressing into your ass that was your last fucking straw.
satoruâs got you in prone bone - a position like doggy but better, and heâs got his chiseled hips just barely hovering over your ass. with pounds and pounds of skin against skinâeach smack against flesh had your mind going for a whirl ride.
you were already surrounded by his sweltering warmth from the inside and the feeling alone was enough to make your mouth water.
heavy airy pants drew out from your full lungs like you were some sort of animal, then againâitâs satoru gojo, and his dick was just one of a fuckinâ kind..
his cock was heavy, driving through your cunt like itâs been ages, and it kinda has.
with a hypnotic pivot of his askew hips, satoru makes you arch just a bit further. itâs a pretty arch, and he skips a few fingers down your curling spine. he watches you trying to wriggle away but with a cocky, âah ah. where ya goin'?â he reels you right back into him. heâs so thick, and he only imagined how pretty you looked with your eyes lulling toward the back of your skull. âaw, donât get shy on me now, sweetheart,â he purrs lowly, and you moan once he gives your ass a rude spank. âwanna hear my wifeâs pretty voice. yâr sloppy pussyâs nice but i wannaângh, hear you.â
âex-wife,â you correct him again, and you know heâs just addressing you as that just to tease you. you start to whimper as his rhythm starts to pick up, ploddingly dragging his keen hips further and further into you. âhnghh. stupid-,â you blurb out another weak squalling whimper, gluey lips starting to stick together.
you almost forgot how mean his dick game was, and satoru knew how to fuck.
he had the type of dick where itâd make you question your life choicesâso good, each curve of his hips had you getting more and more stupid.
youâre pronounced cock drunk within milliseconds, and it doesnât even take you long before your eyes were as wide as saucers, tongue lolled, and your back arches to its very limit.
and his stamina . . oh,
it never changed once he agedâhe had the stamina of a fucking stallion, and his hips proved the horsepower to back it up.
âwhaaatâs that?â satoru chirps, adding a bit more pressure around your throat. itâs safe - but you let off a tiny crooning moan once his strokes become deeper. you feel him reach at unimaginable angles, and your eyes start to roll back again.
satoruâs got you right where he wants, in his bed, the bed that used to be shared between you both.
heâs amping up his delirious pace, striking his feral hips into you quicker before groaning against your ear. in a hoarse tone, he licks a stripe down your neck. âsuch a brat, bet you donât slut this pretty pussy out for anyone else, huh?â
you moan, feeling him breathe down your neck. cloudy hot puffs of air aerate against your skin before satoru starts to suck against your shoulder. âmmh. maybe i do. âs none of your business.â
âoh girl, please,â satoru replies, and his sass was enough to make your thighs quake.
you still couldnât get used to his size - the fat fucking size of his cock that nearly makes both of your thighs clamp shut.
the shirt part of his costume snags against your skin as heâs still fucking you raw, buried balls fuckinâ deep before satoru starts to slow down.
with a wet âplop!â he grunts, feeling his dick slip right out of you. âfuuck,â and he takes a moment to stare at the sight underneath him.
you, his pretty ex-wife all arched and hunched over.
your pussyâs pitifully drooling for more - sniveling wetly from the sheeny flaps as you clench around the air for a few seconds.
as a soft needy moan leaves you, you whine out an inaudible noise that sounds almost like youâre saying âwhat happened?â
âso . . fuckinâ hot,â satoru groans, re-aligning himself back against your slick-flooded entrance.
he heard your melodic âooohâ leave from your lips as he was back inside, a content sigh departing from his chest. satoru canât help but lean himself against you, bringing his hands toward your bouncy tits. âah, canât forget about my favorite girls,â and you let off a plethora of whiney whimpers, feeling him drag his thumbs over your sensitive nipples. satoruâs hips start to get sloppy and his cockâs just lazily swerving its way through every filthy orifice. âso pretty ân plump. . all mine.â
satoru continues to fondle your breasts as heâs ruthlessly pounding into you, swinish hands desperate to feel every part of your round soft tits. heâs moaning against your ear right with you, and satoruâs starting to feel himself steadily reach toward his vulgar demise.
his cockâs rude, repeatedly hitting itself against your precious beloved g-spot. itâs smothering it with a multitude of sloppy kisses with his tip, making sure it savors every wet smooch. âfuck, fuck me,â you moan, lying in a puddle of your drool that starts to dampen the pillow that rests underneath your chin.
âgreedy âlil thing,â satoru huffs, and as heâs still playing with your tits, his pumps start to slow down. satoruâs massaging your walls so good that itâs like heâs putting a wicked spell on your pussy.
you could barely even sit up anymore, and heâs holding your hips firmly. âmmhhh, gettinâ me all soaked, baby. should make you lick me right up.â
âhow about you stop talking-â
âhow about i edge you ân let you finish this sloppy pussy yourself, huh?â
radio silence.
you moaned in response and satoru shook his head with another smarmy sneer squeezing across both corners of his pink lips.
âuh huh. âs what i thought,â and satoru groans the moment he feels himself starting to shrink up from the inside.
his testes were nothing but wrung out, plump, and swollen underneath you, pap papping against your ass - preparing to be milked full.
the lewd imagery alone makes him grunt, feeling a vein prod down his shaft. satoruâs abs flex through his shirt before he sighs, bringing a kiss near the back of your neck. âhah, tell me where sweetheart. where do you want it, tell me.â
âfuck,â you moan, losing count of each time his pointed tip thrashes itself against the gummy barrier of your cervix.
satoru lowly chortles, panting heavily before making you lie straight down against the bed. âheh, fuck? thatâs not an answer, silly.â
âinside, fuckinâ finish inside, âtoru,â you blurt out, hearing your voice start to strain.
youâve been moaning your head off, and your chords were starting to sound like theyâve had just about enough.
ânuh uh, manners sweetheart. donât act brand new,â he teases, tracing a palm over the curved shape of your perked ass. he was in so deep, you felt the pressure press down on your tummy and it gave birth to an entire school of butterflies. you slip out another moan once satoruâs slowing his impactful thrusts down, still filling you to the brim before bringing his hips to a sudden halt. heâs back up against your ear before he whispers hoarsely, â âpretty pleaseeeâ, câmon baby. talk to me nice.â
with a guttural whine desperately trying to rip out the back of your throat, you grumble out a bratty, âfuck you.â
âhah, youâre a trip, yâknow that?â and you gasp, feeling satoru snake a hand in between your thighs.
as he drags it down to where it stops near your stuffed pussy, he starts to rub his open palm against you. you moan, arching ever further as your ass presses into him. âitâs âfuck meâ ân yet youâre bent over for me, wet for me, sloppy for fuckinâ me,â and you felt yourself starting to throb quicker the more he spoke.
within each filthy sentence, his words drip with more erotic bass in his voiceâ
itâs sexy, and satoruâs feeling you trying to weakly grind your ass back against him so he could finish. itâs cute, the way how youâre so impatient but such a brat.
the woman he always knew - his wife.
âsatoâsatoruuu,â you mewl out, another whimper flying past your spit-slick lips. the gradual sounds of skin slapping resound against the walls of the spacious bedroom before it echoes. you moan once his cock stills itself inside - waiting for you, and with a defeated moan, you huff, âfine, pretty please.â
âpretty please what, sweetheart?â
heâs annoying, and yet here you were shamefully pulsating for him, arched over for him, and babbling his name over and over again like itâs some repetitive sacred mantra.
with a pouty scoff, you grumble out a subtle, âpretty please . . cum inside, âtoru. please.â
âatta girl, use those words,â he purrs, and you moan once he gently grabs both of your unsteady hips. satoru braces your body underneath him and he grunts once he focuses back on his release. âgod, this tummy,â he rasps, and you whimper once you feel his bare hands creep underneath your warm flat body.
satoruâs body remains on top of you - pounding you ruthlessly, and thatâs when he softly presses a hand against your stomach. right there, he feels a tiny bulge of himself and it makes him grunt.
you were squeezing around his cock tight, slathering the entirety of his fat cock with your slimy slick before he groans. âmhm, youâd look so pretty plump ân round again for me, baby,â and satoruâs starting to feel it. his body - it shakes, damn near erupting as his highâs approaching at a hasty speed. âprettiest fuckinâ mommy. fuck, âm gonna give you so much.â
white lashes of his snap shut as he whines into your shoulder, still pumping thick inches into you from behindâskin slapping meanly and resounding off the walls of the room before he groans out a growling, âfuck!â youâre moaning right with him, his heat radiating against your skin. satoruâs strokes were hypnotic, his hips jerk against your ass as youâre barely keeping up. your insides felt churned all the way out as he still had a hand lying on the center of your tummy, drooling at the thought of filling you up again.
when it arrives, itâs quick - it takes him only a few long drawn-out seconds before he finally lets go. white brows of his twist together as heâs slowly pumping you full of ribbons ân ribbons of cum.
pearly slimy globs shoot into you, and you moan out a content sigh of your own as the muscles in your shoulders relax. âfuuuck,â you breathe, hearing satoruâs groans overshadow your noises. heâs always been far louder than you, especially whenever he was finishing.
he sounded pretty, angelic almost. satoruâs eyes flicker down toward the mess thatâs being made, hearing the sloppy sounds of your pussy gargle and all.
bubbles of ivory-colored seed coat the outer folds of your entrance and you feel his warmth.
gristly silky ropes dribble into you all at once, creating a milky white ring that starts to form around his base. heâs missed filling you up like this - so so bad.
satoru nearly slips out a whine as heâs dumping his all into youâcasually filling you to the brim, and thatâs when his hips start to get even sloppier.
he was a mess, and youâve milked him dry. he watches as your pretty pussyâs all filled and glossed - oozing with such amounts of cum.
a bit of stringy strands started to stick and glue against your thighs like adhesive, and he couldnât help but pull out. itâs a squishy lewd âpopâ that sounds the second he drags his weighty cock out from between your creamy flaps. âgod, look at how pretty she is after a good fillinâ,â he huffs, and youâre still catching your breath once satoru flips you over. youâre lying on your back, meeting his gaze.
youâve never seen him more in love - oh, he was whipped.
he didnât even have to tell you those known words because his eyes already spoke for him. satoru rubs his leaky white-coated tip against your cunt, smearing his cum all over your entrance before sighing. after he does that, satoru licks his lips and thatâs when you watch his head starting to disappear, going lower.
âcanât . . let it go to waste,â he grumbles, and you moan the second you feel the tip of his tongue starting to create a slope up your right thigh.
slowly, heâs lapping up the remnants of his cum thatâs spilling down your skin. you almost forgot just how filthy he was. satoru had no shame, and he even moaned once the taste of his mess met against his tastebuds. âmmh.â
âs- satoru,â you heave, a hand finding its way through his strands again. his lips were soft, and he then started to create sloppy kisses. you moan, writhing against the stained sheets before gingerly bringing his head back up.
with a sleazy grin, his eyebrows raised before you finish your sentence, tangled fingers still fishing through his snowy unkempt tresses. âkiss me.â
âheh, thatâs my girl,â he hoarsely, gradually closing the distance between you both. heâs been longing to kiss you, to plant his lips against yours. satoru groans in your mouth, feeling your arms wrap around his slim waist.
he starts grinding his hips against yours, his angered reddened tip blushing the more cold air sets against it. youâve never felt more hot, and you could feel a smirk carve against satoruâs lips as heâs making out with you.
itâs intense - his tongue explores throughout your mouth, demanding entry as you moan.
satoruâs sweating pinballs, and he presses his forehead against yours. âfuckinâ woman,â he whispers, his voice getting more and more raspy.
you could taste himself on his tongue and so could he.
it was lewd - and yet, he only wanted more. more of you and so much of it..
satoru leans into your touch, sucking on your tongue as pairs of teeth occasionally clash and smash together before thatâs when you abruptly pull away.
âh..hey,â he huffs, and heâs entirely flustered. satoruâs got heart eyes in his pupils, and heâs very much whipped. of course, though, he tries not to show it by keeping up his smug, arrogant façade. âwhatâsâ ah.â
like earlier, you switch positions and push him lightly to where he lands on his back. pretty soon, you were sure trick-or-treating was gonna be over soon for the kidsâsatoru mentioned earlier how they were staying out for about maybe two hours.
as you straddle his lap again, finally listening to that annoying voice in your head, you made up your mind.
fuck it.
fuck him - literally.
âlie back,â you murmur, and you watch as satoru grows sheepish. youâre getting under his skin, and your sudden change in demeanor makes him hard for what was probably the umpteenth time of the night.
like a dog â heâs obedient, going manspread again before a groan escapes out of him. as your drenched flooded cunt hovers over his tip again, you lean in to pepper chaste kisses near his neck.
âoh, finally gonna ride me now, yeah?â satoru raises a brow, though you could tell how his cockiness was fading. he was sensitive - very.
it was almost painful, and now you were just teasingly grinding the entrance of your cock back ân forth against his flaccid length that rests against his tummy. âshit,â he swallows, idly bringing a hand toward your waist. he sees the look in your eyes before dryly chuckling. âf- fine. but this means . . youâll give me another chance?â
you deadpan, playfully flicking his chest back before humming. âweâll see.â
âiâll take it,â satoru pants, trying to flash a smile but he ends up moaning the second youâre starting to align himself against his throbbing tip.
heâs still leaking gleaming white droplets from the sides of his dick, his veiny shaft being decorated with globs and globs of pre. with a guttural groan, satoruâs abs flex through his costume before he grabs your ass, giving your left rear cheek its nth spank.
âdo your worst fuckinâ then,â satoru stares up at you, a whine desperately trying to leave his slick-spit lips before he squeezes your ass. as you moan, watching his swollen tip gradually disappear between your sappy folds, gojo sighs.
as your unstable hips try to steady themselves against him, you feel satoru rub the front jeweled part of his wedding ring on your sopping cunt one more time right as you prepare to ride him.
âm- make your husband proud, wifey.â

kerosene
ghost x f!reader. 17k words. cw: noncon. kidnapping. gun violence. free use. smut. mentions of involuntary groinal responses lol. simon is a smug asshole and reader is into it you get robbed at gun point while working the lone register at a nowhere petrol station. the money in the till is not the only thing he takes with him. or [read on ao3]
Idle hands are the devilâs workshop, so they say.Â
The devil should have been busy with you, then. Malignant boredom had taken root in you, rankled in every crevice and swell, metastasized like knobbly tumours that parasitised on your will to live until only the gritty alluvium was left.Â
You began your shift behind the till at the Gulf station in the late afternoon, shy of four p.m., as you had done yesterday and as you would tomorrow. You took over from Mitchell, who worked the morning shift, the old man with a wiry grey beard and eyebrow hairs like corkscrews sticking haywire out of his forehead. Youâd work until midnight, when you would be replaced by Charlie, a pinguid twenty-something with legs like beanpoles and eyes so sunken they were hollow as caves in his skull.Â
They had been your co-workers for the better part of three years, yet they might as well have been strangers to you. The scant exchanges you would share with them were a few words at shift change, if that. Mitch would prattle on about some rude geezer and tell the same story about his ex-wife that he had every other week. Charlie, bedecked in his cheap headphones and carrying an egg sandwich cling-wrapped by his grandmother, would only give you a nod and ask been busy? with little attention paid to your answer.Â
You had been offered the morning shift when you first started.Â
The owner of the franchise station, Dave, was uneasy about the prospect of a ripe (his word) young woman working alone behind the register after dark, at a nowhere white-pole station in the sticks, where the only customers were long-haulers and on-the-way-home farmers. A just concern, you supposed, and a part of you had considered taking him up on his offer.Â
You refused, in the end.Â
Told him that someone like Mitch (frail, near-blind, on the cusp of Alzheimerâs) would far more likely be victimised by the ilk of patrons that trudged through the station. In your experience, anyway, most of the late-night customers that came through the push-door understood the implication of a burly old man being served by a young woman on her own. Theyâd tread more carefully, offer you kind smiles, sometimes mention their wives to make sure you understood they were not a threat to you.Â
There was always the odd lecher, though. Goes without saying.Â
The kinds of yellow-toothed men that would lean too far over the counter, talk to you like they knew you, overly familiar. The type to ask you to smile for them, or for a discount, or for your number. Ones that would joke about coming back, just to visit you. That would say youâre too pretty to be working in a dump like this, you should be in a bar instead. Maybe on a pole. Maybe in the passenger seat of their truck, to keep them company.Â
It never frightened you, really, because nothing ever happened. You stuck with the late shift because it offered the fanciful possibility that something interesting might come to pass. Maybe, if you were lucky, there would be a car wreck outside the station, or a patron threatening enough to justify hitting the panic button, or a fire set off by the fuel pump and youâd finally be able to put the ten-year-old extinguisher to use.Â
But you were confident that every shift would be the same, as always.Â
Nothing would happen, you would drive home to your shoddy seventies cottage in the pit-stop hamlet of Dunhill, eat a frozen pastry, sleep alone, and do it all over again. Days came and went like empty boxes on a trundling conveyor belt, your life a deserted factory, only still whirring because the last attendant forgot to switch off the machinery when they left.Â
Today was no different.Â
You perused the grocery shelves with cheap earbuds stuffed in your ears, the kind with squishy mushroom plugs that made it sound like you were underwater. Shuffling through the same playlist you had been slowly adding to over the last year â you liked the songs you already knew every word to, creature of habit that you were. Busied yourself by twisting the canned foods so that their labels all faced outwards, then backwards, just for a laugh.Â
It got to half-nine, the sun had long since set, and you had served one customer since your shift started. A middle-aged man with a muddy van, who bought three RedBulls, a pack of Chesterfields, and half a tank of diesel. He scarcely acknowledged you, a hi when he walked in and a cheers when he left.Â
Your meal for the evening was a pack of Walkers salt and vinegar crisps and a bottle of chocolate milk, plucked from the shelves and not logged. Leaned back in the plastic chair behind the till with your Chucks propped up on the counter, some Sally Rooney book with its spine broken folded in half in your hand.Â
You had milk in your mouth when you heard the characteristic thud of a closing car door, a harsher slam than you were used to. Attuned to the noise even while your ears were plugged. You swallowed it hard when you heard the chime of the bell, the swing of the door, the thuds of boots. New customer.Â
Sat upright, you peered over the register to see who had entered the station, and you were flummoxed when there was nobody there.Â
You grabbed your earbuds by the flimsy cord and tugged them from your ears with a pop â there were footsteps, someone was there, you werenât crazy. You could hear the sound of provisions being swept from shelves and shoved into a bag, the bonking of cans and the crinkling of plastic.Â
Only once you stood did you see the head above the shelves.Â
Black hood pulled up. Could only see the side of him as he wandered down the aisle, towering beast shuffling along and torpidly picking things up just to put them down again. A foot taller than the racks he meandered between. Wore a black leather bomber over his hooded sweater, well-worn hide, turned tawny brown in the creases and at the edges. All bulky. Padded up. His shoulders swayed with the bravado of a gladiator who spent his life unchallenged.
Had you any remaining hospitality in your system youâd have greeted him, but you circumspectly held your tongue.Â
There was something in his presence that did not augur well. Something crooked, something bent. Turned the tired air inside the station dyspneic, too dense and thick to comfortably breathe.Â
Call it a womanâs intuition, if you believed in such a thing.Â

Simon hadnât accounted for a bird at the till.Â
Heâd have expected some ruddy-cheeked man with buck teeth and brown-bordered sweat stains on his shirt. The typical clerk at a shithole backroads petrol station, in his experience. Theyâd shoot him a grimy look, eye him up-and-down with a curl in their lip, all ruffian until he brandished the Sig Sauer he had tucked in the waistband of his jeans.Â
That was what he had prepared for. He came to stick the gunmetal barrel in the face of the old bloke behind the register, demand every stack of cash from the till drawer and anything valuable he had on his person, maybe fire at the ceiling if he moved too slowly. Piece of cake. In and out.Â
Instead, it was you.Â
Sneakers propped up by the register, sucking the crisp dust off your fingers with pink lips. Reading a book as disinterestedly as you might watching paint dry.Â
Unluckily for you, it didnât make a difference that you had a pair of tits. He wanted that money.Â
Your chary little head poked up from behind the counter once he was done collecting his supplies. A few cans of Baked Beans, couple bags of crisps, some vacuum-sealed biersticks. A roll of gauze and a bottle of Dettol for the flesh wound in his thigh. Pack of tissues. Bic lighter. KitKat for a treat. All shoved in the duffle bag he held in his fist, heavy with the wads of cash he had already collected from the last pit-stop on his trip north â an offy in a piss-stained back alley in Cheltenham. Grabbed a few pilsners for the road from there, too.Â
He forsook his urgency as he approached the register, measured pace, duffle in hand. Eyeing you up with each step as if you were a candybar on a display rack.Â
Pretty wee thing.Â
He hadnât even shown you his gun yet, and your eyes were already peeled wide, glistening in the bright fluorescent lights hanging overhead.Â
None of the goods he intended to pay for. He didnât need to make that any clearer to you, the assumption was already plastered on your face as he loomed towards you. Had his mask on, after all; thick black ski mask pulled over his head, jagged holes cut out for his eyes. No doubt that made quite plain his intentions.Â
You stood pin straight, curling the purple cord of your earbuds between your fingers as if some attempt to ground yourself. Not a drop of makeup on, he could see the satin sheen of sweat on your forehead, the plum rings unconcealed under your eyes. Nobody to impress out here. Still pretty.Â
âUm, which pump?â You asked flatly, tone meek, in denial of the obvious.Â
Your stupefied stare followed his hand as it ventured to the base of his sweatshirt, a frown fluttering in your brow as you all but tilted your head in nervous confusion. He reeled up the heavy fleece, white t-shirt underneath â but that wasnât what your eyes clung to.Â
His hand curled around the grip of his handgun, plucking it out from the waistband and holding it insouciantly at his side. No need to point it at you, not yet.Â
Your skin turned cadaver grey as your blood flooded to your feet, eyes bulging with the instantaneous panic that wracked you as though you had been smacked in the face with it.Â
âOh my god â ohm â oh my god,â you squeaked, tongue knotting in your mouth, tears quick to well. âOh my god â y-youââ
It was this, the histrionics, that he hoped to avoid. The tears, Christ, the fucking tears. There wasnât anything to cry about, not yet, but your rheumy eyes glowed sanguine, and the tears that oozed from them were clear and glittery. Rolled dramatically from their wells and dripped from your chin, seeped into the corners of your trembling mouth. All flushed and glossy and he hadnât even spoken yet.Â
There was no blood-curdling outburst, though. You didnât scream, didnât wail, didn't scurry around hysterically like a decollated hen. You were stiff as a board, arms pinned flat to your sides. Merely whispered the Lordâs name in vain over and over as if he might answer your call.Â
âPlease â ohmygod â please donât hurt me,â you cried, lungs seizing with every word, hiccuping and spluttering like you had just been pulled ashore. âWhat do you want, you can â you can take anything. P-pleaseââ
âShut up,â he barked, and you flinched at his aggression. âJust open the fuckinâ till.â
You nodded so vehemently he thought your head might roll off your shoulders, and your pallid hands began raking over your body in desperate search of the pocket you kept your keys in. His glare followed keenly as they ran over your hips, waist, unabashedly caressing your arse in the search. After finding them in a back pocket you tried to orient the keys in your grip, but your fingers trembled so vigorously that you immediately dropped them to the linoleum floor.Â
âFuck â Iâm sorry,â you bleated as you bent down to pick them up, eyes still riveted to him, âIâm sorry, let me just â please, Iâm sorryââ
He let out a grunt of exasperation as he marched around to the other side of the counter. Your feet remained planted still as though you were bolted to the floor, leery eyes following him while your head kept rigid.Â
A deer in headlights. Fawn, more like. Small and doe-eyed and too stupid to get out of his way.Â
You only whimpered when he jostled you away from the till, physically driving you to the wall with his hands under your arms, clearing his path. He took your shaky little hand in a fist and peeled it open, plucking the keys from your sweaty palm.Â
The register was old, something from the nineties, yellow-faded plastic with cube-clacky buttons. He shoved the tiny key into its slot on the drawer, gave it a good shimmy to loosen it up, and it popped open with a ding.Â
Pretty much empty.Â
âThe fuck is this?â He growled, fingering through the notes in the drawer â all twenty-two of them. âThereâs fuckinâ nothing in âere!âÂ
Your face screwed up like a wrung cloth when his glare shot to you. Great gulping sobs, your eyes squeezed into fleshy little crescents and spewed tears from either corner, terror rilling from your nose and making your lips all wet.Â
âIâm sorry â itâs not my â I think Mitch m-must have done the cash drop this morning,â you wailed, âPlease â itâs not my f-f-fault!âÂ
âShut up,â he snapped, jutting the mouth of his Sig Sauer at you, callously reminding you of the fate he held in his grip.Â
He snarled to himself as he plucked out all of the notes, flipped through them to count it up. Nine fivers, six tenners, five twenties, two fifties. A few quid worth of coins floating around unorganised between the compartments. A prodigious spoil of three-hundred-and-five pounds.Â
Fucking joke.Â
He rancorously shoved all the paper in the bag â left the coins, ego too tall to fish out the petty change.Â
âPiss take,â he grumbled as he slammed shut the till drawer. âWhat else yâgot.âÂ
You blinked up at him timorously as he tucked his gun into his jeans and marched towards you, almost buckling over as though you could curl up into a shell to protect yourself from him.Â
Only cried as he spread your arms, shamelessly smearing his hands over your body to feel for something in a pocket. Down your waist, stomach, hips; all pillowy under the pressure of his hands, soft even through your t-shirt. Prodded the undersides of your breasts with shameless fingers, checking for anything tucked in your bra, and your lips curled in disgust as you looked away from him.Â
He almost cracked a smile at your diffidence. Maybe another time, pretty thing.Â
He flipped you around, manhandling you until your nose pressed into the wall. Hands smoothed down your back, before finding something rectangular tucked into the tight pocket of your skinny jeans. You squeaked in dispute as he stuck his fingers in the pocket, flush with your arse, but he had no time to enjoy it.Â
Little red wallet.Â
He flicked through it â a visa debit card, expired Primark gift card, two quid in the zipped pocket and a tenner note folded in a card sleeve. Eyed your license for longer than necessary â cute little photo of you, a tiny smirk in your lips as you gazed at the camera.Â
âPretty name,â he said wryly, and you only huffed with your forehead pressed against the wall.Â
He didnât bother taking any of the change. Looked like you needed it as much as he did. You winced when he pushed a finger in your back pocket, tugging it open so he could shove your wallet back in.Â
He instead returned his attention to the checkout, scouring the counters for anything else that could be deemed at all valuable. Nothing, obviously. Merely cardboard display racks of chewing gum and cheap candies. There was a cigarette cabinet behind the till, at least â after some fiddling he found the key on the ring that fit the lock, broke open the steel door, and swept an entire rack of cartons into the duffle bag.Â
As a last resort, he dropped the bag and crouched down, wiped underneath the countertops with gloved hands, hoping for a vault, a hidden compartment, orâ
His fingers brushed plastic, creasing and soft; something wrapped in film, taped to the underside of the counter. He tore it off with a zip, held it in a tight hand; a stack of notes, more than a centimetre thick, wrapped with a hair tie and shoved in a zip-seal sandwich bag.Â
You let out a remorseful sob as you sunk to the floor with your back against the wall; thighs tucked to your chest, head dropped to your knees.Â
A grin peeled his lips from his teeth as the realisation settled. âThis yours?âÂ
âNo,â you chirped, a pitiful attempt at a lie â he was unsure why you wouldnât admit to it, it wasnât as though heâd have informed your boss.Â
âSkimming, eh?â He snorted, peeling open the yellow seam of the plastic pouch and fishing out the stack. Flipped through them â mostly tens and twenties â easily a couple grand, at the very least.Â
âI justââ you sobbed, shoulders hunched, âI was just saving up. It doesnât matter. Just t-take it.âÂ
âSaving?â He asked incredulously, voice thick with amused derision. âLittle thief. No better than me, are ya?âÂ
âWhatever,â you bellyached, arms wrapped around your knees, snivelling on the floor.Â
He sucked his teeth as he dumped the stack in his bag. Too bad. His now.Â
As he went to stand, though, he went dead still â eyes hooked on a flashing blue light under the counter. Squinting, he leaned closer, to substantiate his hunchâ
A fucking panic button.Â
His rage burst like a purulent blister â apoplectic with it, he ripped his handgun from his jeans and steamed towards you.Â
âYou fuckinâ hit the alarm?â He roared, and you shrieked in terror as he took the collar of your t-shirt in a fist and heaved you up from the ground.Â
âI â Iâm â I didnâtââ
Your spluttering only enkindled his fury. You cried out in despairing dread when he shoved the mouth of his pistol into the soft flesh under your chin, and he held his teeth to your cheek.Â
âWhy the fuck would you go and do that, eh?â He growled, inexplicably disappointed. Thought you were smarter than that.Â
âIâm sorry,â you bawled, shaking your head, wet eyes bolted to the ceiling. âI didnât know what to do, I just â I thought I was sâposed to, Iâm s-sorry. Please â god, please, donât kill me.â
He huffed, jaw rigid.Â
He wouldnât put a bullet in you, pretty thing. Too lovely to mire with lead, that butter-soft skin.Â
It was a shame you were such a thorn in his side, fractious girl, because otherwise he would have just left you be. Would have taken his cash and been done with it, left you in your piss-wet jeans to cry to your boss about the ordeal and rightfully request some weeks off to escape to somewhere more therapeutic for the soul than fucking Dunhill.Â
âWould be a damn waste,â he grunted, finally pulling his gun from under your chin, sticking the barrel into his jeans. A moan of relief leaked from your throat once the instrument of your imminent death was no longer kissing your jaw.Â
Premature relief, love. He grappled you away from the wall, and with a shove, had you in front of him. You yelped when he collared you with a tight hand around the back of your neck, stumbled over your feet as he began driving you forward.
âWhat are youââ
âUse those legs, girl,â he barked, as he reached to hoist up his duffle bag from where he left it on the floor.Â
You blubbered like a toddler, sobbing and sobbing and sobbing, as if your tears might engender pity from him. âAre you t-taking me?âÂ
âNot gonna leave you to blab to the cops, am I?âÂ
Another sob. âNo â I wouldnât â I wonât say anything, I donât even know what you look like. Pleaseââ
âChrist, youâre a whinger, arenât you?â He rumbled, barrelling through the swinging door and hauling you across the asphalt of the forecourt.
The air was thick with the greasy smell of petrol seeping from lousy fuel pumps, amalgamated with the distant fumes of factory farms and cow manure that hung in a blanketing smog from there to Birmingham. Only the corrugated metal infrastructure of beef and dairy industries for miles in any direction out there.Â
He couldnât fathom what a bird like you was doing with her feet in the mud, stagnating in such a miserable shithole. Maybe he was doing you a favour.Â
He tore open the passenger door of his twenty-year-old Mitsubishi L200 â a rusty black pickup he bought with cash from a shrivelled old man on Gumtree, with hopefully just enough life in it to last the drive north.Â
You stuck your hand out and planted it on the edge of the door as he pushed you towards it, vigorously shaking your head. âNo, n-no â Iâm not going with you, Iâm notââ
He snorted, and when you didnât capitulate with a shove, he swept an arm under your knees and hoisted you upward before dumping you into the passenger seat whether you liked it or not. You landed with a squeak, and before you could spew out any more vacant refusals he slammed shut the door.Â
He stormed around to the drivers side and hopped in beside you, tossing his duffle bag back between the seats, hastily igniting the engine as he shut his own door. Hit the central lock button and the entire truck locked shut with a clunk â you whimpered when you heard it, and turned your knees away from him.
âWhere are you taking me?â You cried, as he revved the truck and rapidly accelerated, tearing out of the forecourt and over the curb, landing on the road with a sharp bounce and a tire screech.Â
He paid little attention to your whimpering as he sped off down the dilapidated country road, eyes flicking to the rearview every odd second to make sure he saw no flashing lights in pursuit. The vehicle dipped and recoiled over every pothole on the crumbling old road â motorway would be preferable, but he decided heading in the opposite direction to loop back around would be the safest bet.Â
You only sobbed quietly to yourself in his silence, no doubt his lack of response was a threat in itself.Â
He had no issue frightening you. Served you right.Â
Took some morbid glee in considering what you imagined he planned on doing with you. Whether you considered weighing up your chances. Might you survive if you were to attack him? Would he go easy on you? Might he enjoy the struggle?Â
Perhaps you were girding yourself for what he might do next.Â
Truth was, he hadnât decided yet.Â
His decision to take you was as impulsive as it was inexorable.Â

You weeped until your tear troughs were droughted and nothing more could bleed from their ducts. Cheeks had gone sticky with it, salt dried gritty on your flushed skin, lips shrivelled and thirsty.Â
Transient thoughts of rebellion had been ignited and snuffed out in the ten minutes since he had abducted you from the station â you could have reached over and pulled the gun from his waistband, could have tried to kick through the passenger window, could have thrown a nuclear tantrum and bucked and screamed until he was forced to pull over.Â
All would have been futile. You werenât stupid.Â
He had that gun in his immediate reach; in fact he kept a heavy hand resting high up on his thigh, prepared to yank it out of its nest above his crotch at any given opportunity. He had made abundantly clear the shortness of his fuse, and that his reflexive reaction to annoyance was to threaten your life.Â
Best you settle down, you thought â wait until his guard was down, until he pulled over somewhere, then consider something more drastic. While you were trapped in a car with him such an opportunity was unlikely to present itself.Â
There were no streetlights out this way; your abductor had bypassed Dunhill entirely, sticking to unmaintained back roads that had you bouncing up and down in your seat. Not the motion alone that made you queasy, but the fact he was driving even deeper into nowhere, where the only sources of light were the headlights of his truck, illuminating the dark road ahead like something out of a found-footage horror film.Â
âYou didnât answer my question,â you croaked, voice abraded to the point of gurgling stones.Â
You felt his head turn to look at you, but you kept your stare pointed out your window. Knees turned so far away from him that they burrowed into the door.Â
âEh?â He huffed dryly.Â
Sipped a cautious breath before repeating yourself. âWhere are you taking me?âÂ
âIâm âeaded north,â he said, no elaboration.Â
âWhere north,â you asked more firmly, warily frustrated.Â
He let out a breathy chortle, as though surprised youâd interrogate him. âScotland.âÂ
You cocked your head back in bewilderment and turned to glower at him. âScotland?âÂ
âSâwhat I said.âÂ
âI donât want to go to Scotland,â you whined, realising quickly the length of the drive â easily six hours to Glasgow if he stuck to the motorways, but you got the sense he was avoiding them.Â
âThatâs a shame,â he said.Â
âI donât understand,â you pleaded, terror thick in your throat. âWhat do you â what do you want from me?â
You regretted the question as soon as you uttered it, because there was some comfort to be found in uncertainty â that is, the possibility that he wasnât going to throw you into the bed of his truck and rape you in the pitch dark of the backcountry night.Â
He looked at you again, eyes tar-black in the shadows of his balaclava, and you held shut your thighs on instinct.Â
âDunno yet,â he said.Â
You might have cried if you had any tears left to give. Instead you blinked at him uneasily, petrified into a surreal state of milky numbness â maybe you were in shock, you had heard of that before.Â
âSo you â you just took me because you felt like it?âÂ
He shrugged with a single shoulder. ââSpose so.âÂ
A minute of stodgy silence settled in the cab as you stared blankly ahead down the spotlighted country road. You werenât sure what you should do with yourself, and it made you itch all over. From the pits of you echoed screams to put up a fucking fight, to do something â instead you sat quietly, vacantly, erosively indecisive. Waiting for something to happen. For the other shoe to drop.Â
âAre you going to shoot me?â You timidly asked, words eking out like dripping water from a tight faucet.Â
âHopefully not.âÂ
âThen â then why did you take me?â
His head rocked back and bounced off the headrest as he let out an exasperated puff of air. âYâmake a lot oâ noise, donât you?âÂ
âWell there would be no noise if you hadnât.âÂ
He laughed at that, you could see the fine lines creasing in the corner of his puckering eyes through his mask. âGot me there.âÂ
âSo then why donât you just let me out?â You pestered, only emboldened by his droning indifference. Apathy exuded from him like serum from an open wound, oily yet salutary, and you found it grotesquely reassuring.Â
âDonât want to,â he bluntly replied.Â
âWhy not?âÂ
He was twitchy. On a razor edge. He lasered a glare at you and it stung, and you shrunk into yourself under the heat of it.Â
âBecause I donât want to.â He repeated, jaw tight.Â
You should have heeded the venom in his throat as a warning to shut up, but despite effort to wire your jaw shut, your compulsion to fill the silence was pathological.Â
âAre you â are you going toââ Couldnât bring yourself to finish the sentence. The tail of it sat heavy and sour on your tongue.Â
âGoinâ to what.âÂ
A quivering breath leaked through your teeth. âRape me.âÂ
He sighed heavily, languidly rocking his head to the side, and you felt his hard eyes on you. Excoriating you from legs to lips.Â
âThought about it,â he said.Â
Ribs closed like dog jaws around your lungs.Â
Said with such torpor that it didnât cut you like a threat. Instead it made your heart tight and hot, shuddering rather than beating, pumping out needly adrenaline that made your hairs spike up and your stomach drop heavy.Â
âAnd?â You creaked, voice scratching in your trachea.Â
âWouldnât mind a fuck,â he grunted indifferently. âBut I donât like crying.âÂ
A mortifying heat feathered over your cheeks. Something pre-programmed, an evolutionary reaction to the suggestion of sex at all, consensual or otherwise â thatâs what you told yourself, when you felt a reflexive shiver between your legs, and your ears turned hot.Â
âSo thatâs why you took me,â you mumbled anxiously.Â
âTo fuck?â
You shot him a pointed lour in place of a response.Â
He shrugged. âMaybe.â

Fucking weird girl.Â
Your curiosity was potently unsettling, riveting in the same breath. Didnât make sense to him, that youâd ask him so unabashedly whether or not he intended on defiling you. What answer were you hoping for? Did you simply want to make sure he said no?Â
You blinked at him vacantly after his candid response. No use in lying to you.Â
It wasnât his style to brutalise himself into a bird, to bulldoze through wails and shrieks of refusal, physical capability to do so notwithstanding. He simply didnât like tears. Felt beneath him, really, the impotent sadism needed to enjoy milking them. The only wetness he liked in a girl was a wet mouth and a wet cunt.Â
He was partial to a hisser, though. Liked his spitters and scratchers. The kinds of girls that would gripe and grouse about his brutishness but turned treacly sweet when he inevitably overpowered them.Â
Perhaps youâd be a hisser.Â
He would have liked to find out. What noises you might have made. What the skin of your thighs might have felt like when free of their denim sheaths. How your nipples might spike up in the invasive cool of the September evening, or under the unwelcome brush of his fingers.Â
There was a glimmer in the pools of your eyes, fretful yet inquisitive. He was probably only seeing what he wanted to see.Â
You went quiet after that, at least. For the best. Kept your little knees nailed together as you glowered out your passenger window, pleasantly pacified for the time being. Sulking like a fucking child, but he supposed he couldnât blame you.Â
He wasnât stupid enough to expect that youâd be cheerful after he kidnapped you. And he wasnât in denial, either â he did kidnap you. There was no dancing around it. He threatened to kill you and then he abducted you, because he felt like it. Because he liked the look of you.Â
Not remorseful, though. It would be a cold day in hell before he ever felt sorry for anything. His brain just didnât function that way. If he wanted something, it was his. No use wasting time feeling guilt over something not even he could prevent.Â
He spent his time in your silence considering how to make it worth his while. Whether he would, in fact, drag you all the way to Scotland with him. Whether heâd have you aid and abet his next robbery to make up for the piss-poor spoils he purloined from your petrol station. Whether he would find a way to fuck you on the way, or perhaps once he got to his destination.Â
Maybe heâd let you keep some of your savings if you showed him your pussy. He looked at you briefly as he thought about it. Wondered how badly you needed the money.Â
âWhat were you savinâ for, eh?â He asked suddenly, and you flinched at the sound of his voice.Â
Soft little girl. Heâd need to harden you up.Â
âWhat do you mean,â you murmured, hardly a croak.Â
âDonât play dumb,â he gritted.
You sighed warily, eyeing him before you answered. âDoesnât even matter,â you grumbled. âYou took it, so now I havenât saved anything.âÂ
He glowered at you, and something in his dissatisfied stare must have compelled you to elaborate. He had that effect on people. Birds, especially. Intimidation coursed through his blood and emanated out of his skin, it didnât take much effort.Â
âI wanted to leave Dunhill, obviously,â you groaned, reluctant to spill every word.Â
âYeah?â He asked, âwhere were yâoff to?â
âFucked if I know,â you muttered. âLiterally anywhere else.âÂ
He snorted at that. âCouldnât do that without skimming, eh?âÂ
âWhat, do you disapprove?â You hissed, scowling at him. âAt least I donât kidnap people when I need money.âÂ
âIâm not judging, sweetheart,â he crooned through a grin. âMâonly impressed.âÂ
âWhatever,â you groused, crossing your arms and glaring out the window. âI only took it because I owe a bunch of money.âÂ
He quirked a brow at that. âTo who?âÂ
âWhy do you care.âÂ
He shrugged. âBoring drive.â
You let out a petulant huff before you inevitably decided to answer him.Â
âIâm behind on rent,â you said, through gritted teeth. âLike, four months behind. And Iâm still paying off my car, which I just needed to get repaired, so now I also owe money to the mechanic who did me the favour. Fucking owe money to the government, too, because they found out I was on the dole while I was working at the station.âÂ
A curl tugged in his lips, brows raised in intrigue. No surprise you had managed to find yourself burdened by so many favours â landlord giving you grace, mechanics fixing your cars without payment upfront. Pretty thing like you, though, heâd expect youâd get everything for free. Couldnât imagine what kind of penny-pinching wankers would still demand money from you when you looked like that.Â
Shame you didnât cross his path sooner, heâd have fixed your car for you. No charge. Might have even let you squat at his place rent-free, assuming you made it worth his while.Â
Started to imagine it, despite himself. Pictured having a pretty thing like you to come home to. Standing in the kitchen in his t-shirt, nothing under it. Heâd bend you over the counter and fuck you right there while you stirred your tea. Wouldnât have taken much to get your cunt nice and wet, he thought. You seemed like youâd be easy to please, bored little thing, hopelessly awaiting a man like him to show you whatâs worth living for.Â
Maybe he would take you all the way to Scotland, after all. Â
âWhat about you,â you asked dully, snapping him from his reverie. âWhy do you need the money.âÂ
He glanced at you, you picked at your fingernails and glared at his hands on the wheel.Â
âMust need it pretty bad,â you muttered, scorn bubbling in your throat.Â
He tapped the steering wheel. âLong story.âÂ
âWhat, are you a fugitive, or something?â You asked, contemptuous eyes raking over him.Â
âIs it that obvious?â He asked, through a chortle.Â
You gulped, almost cartoonishly. So scared of him. He was sure the mask didnât help, but he didnât feel like taking it off yet.Â
âWhatâd you do?â You questioned, that pang of anxiousness never quite leaving your voice, despite your attempts at feigning bravery. âKill someone?âÂ
âWorse than that,â he said frankly.Â
Your brows knitted together worriedly, fingers knotting. Nervous fidgeting. âSome kind of rapist, then?âÂ
âNot quite,â he replied facetiously, certain you must have found his amusement at the prospect ill-placed.Â
âThen what?âÂ
âGot in trouble with people you shouldnât get in trouble with,â he explained, purposefully vague. He enjoyed your inquisitiveness.Â
âA gang?âÂ
âCould call it that,â he jeered. âSpecial air service.âÂ
Probably shouldnât have told you that. Couldnât help himself.Â
âSpecial â wait, youâre in the army?âÂ
âNot anymore,â he said.Â
You frowned uneasily. âWhat happened?âÂ
âThatâs a tale for another day,â he grunted, and you turned to glare out the window again, spiteful now that he left your curiosity unsated. Little brat.Â
Twenty uneventful minutes passed uninterrupted, then, and Simon focused on the route he had set out to follow. He had successfully avoided main roads for the better part of an hour, now electing it safe enough to return to the highway. Took a few dark turn offs, and every time the truck slowed, you visibly tensed up; so terrified that heâd pull over for a rest stop and drag you into the grass on the side of the road.
He didnât like the streetlights. They were confrontational, accusatory, as though their beams of light were enough to alert every cop in the vicinity to his presence underneath them.Â
The highway was largely empty, at least. Only one car passed in the opposite direction as he cruised along the smooth asphalt, decidedly more comfortable to drive on than the tattered backroads. Meant he could drive a lot faster, too. Might have been able to cut his trip by an hour, if he stuck to eighty-five miles an hour for the stretch between there and Birmingham.Â
Your girlish little hands clutched the armrest of the door as he accelerated, the speed of the vehicle pushing you against the window as he followed a curve in the wide road.Â
âYouâre driving too fast,â you said quietly.Â
He cracked a grin. How endearing that you thought to warn him. You were lucky he was trying to keep a low profile, in any other circumstance heâd be brushing a hundred. Then heâd really scare you, wouldnât he? You could do with some toughening up, he thought.Â
âNow youâre worried about the law, eh?â He sneered.Â
âI just donât want to die in a car wreck,â you bit.Â
Seemed his docility was emboldening you. Perhaps you were a hisser, after all. Wondered if he needed to correct your behaviour. Maybe youâd spit on him if he reached over the centre console and fixed his hand to your thigh.Â
âYouâll be fine,â he said.Â
He avoided the arterial motorway that cut through Birmingham, choosing instead to stick to the A roads that bounced between exits and junctions in a zigzag. Hardly efficient, such a route would tack on an extra three hours of travel between there and Manchester, but at least far less monitored than the M5.Â
He got cocky, he supposed.Â
Saw the flashing red-and-blue lights before the sirens started blaring, and you jumped like a bunny â your head wracked around with a speed that made your neck crick, glaring at the cop car through the back windscreen.Â
âFuck,â he barked, through a clenched jaw, eyes jumping between the cruiser in his rearview and the highway ahead of him.Â
He could have shoved his foot down, pressed the accelerator flat to the floor and fled the likely jaded cop patrolling the country highway at eleven p.m. on a Tuesday. There was a chance the fat old bastard wouldnât give chase, but that chance was slim. Simon didnât need the attention.Â
He sunk his foot into the brake and slowed to sixty, veering into the shoulder. âFuckinâ tosser.âÂ
And didnât you perk up? Itching all over to bounce out of your seat, head swinging back to look at the police car twice a second. All twitchy and riled up. He could see what you were thinking, it was printed in your cheeks, bright in your eyes; nowâs your chance.Â
He hoped you werenât that stupid.Â
âYou gonna be a good girl?â He asked rigidly.Â
âWhat do you mean,â you squeaked, panicked, eyes peeled wide and skin glossy with sweat.Â
âMeans keep your fuckinâ mouth shut,â he snapped, lifting up his jersey, and you gawped at the gun against his stomach. âYou make a scene, Iâll have to shoot him. And then Iâll have to shoot you. Yâunderstand?â
You nodded tightly, wiping under your eyes with your palms, some paltry attempt to collect yourself. He sincerely hoped youâd behave. He didnât want to kill you. Would be a waste of a pretty bird. Not to mention a fucking pain in the arse to hide not one, but two bodies.Â
âGood,â he muttered, as he tore off his mask and tossed it on the ground between his feet, slowing the car to a stop on the side of the highway. Rubbed his hand over his buzzed head on instinct, cropped hair velveteen under his palm. Hopeful the knit didnât leave suspicious imprints in his skin.Â
Your lips went a little slack when you looked up to see him unmasked, and a grin creased in his cheeks. Saw plain as day that glimmer in your little eyes, as they scoured over his face as if reading the pages of a book.Â
Didnât think heâd be pretty, did you? He was not ignorant of his looks, and wasnât humble about them either. So blatant in your flustered expression that you liked what you saw, only too virtuous to admit it to yourself.Â
He wound down his window before the policeman approached. He was adept at pretending to be a good boy. Spent decades licking boots in the military, and cops were even easier to please.Â
The officer was middle-aged and saggy-eyed, just as jaded as Simon had predicted. The truck was taller than him, so his hatted head peered through the center of the open window, assessing the cab with his lips in a line.Â
âEveninâ,â Simon said simply.Â
âHeading home, are we?â The officer asked, eyeing up the bird next to the driver, lathering you in more attention than necessary.Â
Couldâve clubbed him in the nose for so shamelessly drooling over you â as far as the cop was likely aware, you were his bird, not some slapper along for the ride. He had king-hit men for less.Â
âYou bet,â was all he said.Â
âMust be in a hurry,â the cop said derisively, glare finally returning to the driver. âAny clue how fast you were going, mate?âÂ
Mate made Simon twitch. Swallowed back the urge to spit not your fucking mate, instead offering a placating grin and a pat of the steering wheel.Â
âWe are in a bit of a hurry.âÂ
âYeah? Enough of a hurry to be going twenty over the limit?âÂ
âBird tells me to hurry home, I hurry home,â Simon jeered. âYâknow what I mean.âÂ
The officer almost tutted, until your voice cut across from the passenger seat, and Simonâs knuckles turned white on the wheel.Â
âDonât blame me,â you snapped. âItâs not my fault you canât control yourself.âÂ
To Simonâs surprise, the cop chuckled at that.Â
âNeed to rein your fella in, love.âÂ
âI tried,â you lamented. âI told him he was going too fast and he was going to get pulled over. I told him so. Bastard doesnât listen to me.â
Simon blinked in your direction, to see you sitting upright with your arms spitefully crossed over your chest, cheeks red-hot with panic and knee bouncing in frustration. If he didnât know the root of your unease was the fact he had abducted you, heâd have believed you were a contemptuous wife itching to castigate her reckless husband for getting in trouble.Â
Seemed the cop believed that, too. âBirdâs smarter than you, eh?âÂ
Simon snorted, electing to play along. âThat she is.âÂ
âLooks like youâre in plenty of trouble, then,â he taunted.
Simon looked at you, again, to see you scowling at him before you glowered out the windshield. âMh. Think so.â Â
âYouâre lucky Iâm not in the mood to do the paperwork,â the policeman said sternly. âIâve got your plate, though, so slow down, yeah? Way down. No excuse for eighty-five in a sixty.âÂ
âUnderstood.âÂ
âDonât let me catch you again, eh?âÂ
Simon smiled politely, concealing the chortle that curdled in his throat. Cop wouldnât be seeing him again at all, ever, because he was fucking off to a different country and intended to stay there for as long as he remained under the radar.Â
Heâd have to dump the car, though. With the plate on the record it was fated for the scrapyard.Â
âAppreciate it,â Simon said through an artificial grin. âHave a good one.âÂ
The cop only nodded, patted the car door with a flat hand, before waddling back to his cruiser without another word.Â
Simon was humiliated to admit the relief that doused him was sobering, letting out a ragged sigh as he rolled up the window and twisted the keys in the ignition. He was certain that the encounter would have been far uglier â felt his hand twitching towards the gun on his stomach more than once, imagined how quickly it could have been over if he simply tore it out and pointed it at the wankerâs forehead.Â
You, strange girl, saved his arse. Whether or not you had intended to help him, you did. His eyes fixed to you as he pulled back onto the motorway, speedometer creeping back up to sixty and staying there, while the police car was still in sight.Â
ââBastard doesnât listen to meâ?â He quoted with a brow raised, incredulous amusement rich in his tone. Â
âWhat,â you muttered derisively, staring rigidly out of the passenger window, arms tightly interlocked.Â
âThink of that on the spot, did ya?âÂ
Seemed you were avoiding eye contact with him now, glare fastened out into the moonlit countryside and head bolted still. Ashamed, perhaps, that you had thwarted your only real opportunity to escape him. Or, worried that if you looked at him for too long, your fear of him might have mutated into something far more difficult to justify. He smirked at the thought.Â
âYou should be grateful,â you grumbled.Â
âShould I?âÂ
âYou didnât get arrested because of me.âÂ
He chortled at that. Maybe your tactic to ingratiate yourself was to help him, but he got the sense that wasnât your intention.
âIn that case, âcourse Iâm grateful.â
âThen say thank you,â you spat, finally swivelling your head on your neck to pin your grouchy little lour to him.Â
âThank you,â he crooned, grin sharp.Â
âWhatever,â you griped, slumping back into your seat with a huff.Â
He wasnât sure if he preferred you whining and crying to pouting like a teenager, either option tested his patience. He at least found the latter vaguely amusing, only slightly more endearing than a whimpering abductee in his passenger seat.Â
âThanks not good enough for you?â He asked mordantly, and you scoffed. âWhat, do I have to lick your cunt to prove it?âÂ
Your stare cut to him out of the corner of your eyes, head impudently bowed to avoid facing him head-on.Â
âDonât say things like that,â you murmured uneasily, eyes glittering under the streetlight that passed by.
âLike what?â He sneered, âdonât want me to talk about licking your cunt?âÂ
âShut up,â you chirped, stiff-lipped, tipping your knees away from him and once again scowling out of your window.Â
He snickered at you, couldnât help it, watching you get all tight and restless when he said it again. Certain you were involuntarily picturing his head between your legs, whether you liked it or not.Â
âDonât like the word cunt?â He teased, winding you up for his own enjoyment. âOr donât like thinking of me licking it?âÂ
âStop it,â you whined, shrivelling up like a raisin.Â
He grinned. âI can call it your pussy instead.â
âYouâre disgusting.âÂ
âUh-huh,â he laughed.Â
You turned to tug at the door handle, yanking at it unrelentingly, and it only thumped as you failed to break through the lock. âLet me out.âÂ
âDonât get your knickers in a twist.âÂ
âOpen the fucking door,â you spat, spite simmering in the back of your throat. âLet me out.âÂ
He liked this better. Hissing derision, contemptuous attempts to escape, to demand your freedom. Much more enjoyable than your earlier weeping, all snotty and puffy-eyed.Â
âNot gonna happen,â he said.
âYouâre a pervert,â you growled. Â
âSo?âÂ
âLet me go,â you repeated, glaring daggers at him.Â
âYouâre not goinâ anywhere,â he said candidly, tone as rigid as he intended it to be. He meant it.Â
Again stymied, you slouched over and turned away from him, and went petulantly silent. Simon drove ahead unruffled, took another exit off the motorway â once again trundling over a poorly kept rural road, heading in the direction of the next highway junction half an hour north.Â
It was evident being off the beaten track put you on edge, pellucid in the way you tightened your arms around yourself once the streetlights became fewer and further between. He couldnât blame you, it was certainly slasher-esque to cart you around backroads, where the only buildings were abandoned barns and grain silos. Lucky for you, he wasnât a murderer. Not anymore. Besides, all of his past killing was government sanctioned. Most of it, anyway.Â
You kept your mouth shut for the next long while, huffing and puffing every now and again, making sure not to let him forget how unhappy you were with your circumstances. Strangely enough, he found it endearing.
âI need to pee,â you said suddenly, a squeak, shy to say so.Â
He snorted. âThink Iâm thick?âÂ
âI â Iâm being serious,â you stammered. Unconvincing.Â
âHold it,â he said unsympathetically, turning a left corner, the momentum making you tip into the centre console, your shoulder nudging against his before you spitefully tugged yourself away.
âI canât,â you grouched.Â
âPiss yourself then,â he sneered. âIâm not keepinâ this car.âÂ
Your brows scrunched up in disappointment. âI donât want to â to pee on myself. Thatâs just gross.âÂ
He smiled. Something cute about you.Â
âYou can piss when we stop for the night,â he said. âHowâs that?âÂ
âWeâre stopping?â You asked quietly, blinking at him charily, as if heâd change his mind if you spoke too loud. Â
âBeen a long fuckinâ day,â he grumbled. âIâm not driving for nine hours straight.âÂ
âNine hours?â You pestered, âI thought we were going to Scotland?âÂ
He couldnât help but grin at that. Perhaps it was a Freudian slip â we. Maybe you had come to terms with it already, the ineludible fact that you were stuck with him for however long he wanted to keep you. So far, that looked like a good while.Â
âTaking the long way,â he answered.Â
âWhat the hell, how many people are looking for you?â You asked, pouting in worry.Â
He sucked his teeth. âNot enough to find me.âÂ

You didnât need to pee at all.Â
In fact, your nerves had sucked up every drop of water that remained in your body after your deluge of tears. They were glutted with it. All swollen and pinging with panic every odd moment, when you remembered you were supposed to be in fight-or-flight.Â
You were seething, though, that you had failed to convince him.Â
The plan was poorly conceived, in fairness â you only imagined getting as far as an unlocked door, girding your legs to bolt off into the endless fields on the side of the road in whichever direction they took you. Didnât spend a moment considering whether you could outrun the goliath, or how rough heâd be when he predictably tackled you. Maybe heâd simply have shot you as you ran away, turned it into a game of target practice for his own amusement.Â
There was shame brewing within you, now.Â
Sweltering, emetic, frothy as it crawled up your throat â you were disgusted with yourself, at how pathetic you were being, at how little you had done in the interest of your own escape. How you had let all of it happen.Â
You always imagined yourself a fighter, it was easy to imagine such a thing. In hypotheticals you would kick and scream, could easily overpower your assailants by sheer will, your resolve to survive so strong that capitulation was inconceivable.Â
Reality stung.Â
You werenât a kicker or a screamer. You were a sit-and-waiter, and that realisation was sobering as it was disappointing.Â
Humiliated that you had forsaken a real opportunity at rescue for no discernable reason. No reason you could truly justify. Perhaps you had done it to save the police officer; if you hadnât intervened, your deranged captor would have shot the innocent man for sticking his nose where it didnât belong, and it would have been your fault for making a fuss.Â
Terror was the next excuse, but that didnât quite justify it either. If you were so terrified that the man would shoot you, you would not have uttered a word. No, you would have been quiet, a good girl, just as he ordered you to be.Â
It assuaged your fear, you thought, to see his face.Â
You were surprised to see a face at all beneath the mask, forgetting he was a man and not some caricature of chaos and violence. He looked like a soldier, too. All scarred and cynical, disillusionment was inlaid in his features despite how caustically he grinned at you.Â
His hair was freshly buzzed, sandy blond velvet coating his head, long pink cicatrices carved lines into his scalp as if someone had attempted to cut through it and peel it from his skull. He was tattooed, you could tell, by the teal-black engravings that crept up the side of his neck, the rest concealed by the thick hood of his sweatshirt. Nose a little swollen at the bridge, fractured once and poorly healed.Â
The shame was even more potent when you caught yourself eyeing him for too long, flicking over to him every now and again just to get a glance, the shortest possible eye contact to ensure he didnât catch you staring.Â
Fucking mortifying that he was good-looking.Â
That your mind even allowed you to think so, that your eolithic subconscious had considered your abductorâs appearance at all. The way he had rakishly smirked at you was arrogance manifest, you could see in his russet-brown eyes a patent awareness of your attraction. As if he could smell it on you, goading you to admit it, ego stroked every time you caught his eye.Â
So you didnât.Â
You kept your body tilted away from him, gaze locked out of your passenger window, sweaty hands clamped together. Every now and then you felt his glare on the back of your neck, heard him breathing in your direction â it felt as though you were counting down the minutes until he felt compelled to reach over the console and touch you.Â
It was only a matter of time, undoubtedly. Thatâs what he took you for, you were certain, despite his supposed ambivalence. The thought made your heart sit fat in your throat. Stopping for the night was a deadline.
âWhere are we stopping?â You asked weakly, voice aimed at the passenger door.Â
He let out an exasperated breath. âNot sure yet.â
âAre you going to sleep in the car?âÂ
He seemed to find that amusing. âI might not look it, love, but Iâm a creature of comfort,â he said. âIâll get us a bed.âÂ
Us. You shivered when he said it.Â
A scornful refusal knocked at the back of your teeth, but you knew how heâd twist it, would mock your aversion. Heâd make another foul little quip about your pussy, you thought.Â
You didnât want to give him the chance to say the word again. Not simply because it was revolting to listen to the degenerate joke about eating you out â licking your cunt, it echoed in the sauna of your skull â but because the mere mention of it turned your cheeks claret-red and the back of your neck all clammy.Â
What was worse, is that you knew he could see it on you. Plainly emboldened by how much it ruffled you. Could decipher your unease as an effort to conceal some biomechanical reaction, one provoked by the mere suggestion of it, by the vibrations of his voice as he said it.Â
âDo me a favour,â He suddenly demanded.
You refused to turn and look at him. âWhat.âÂ
âGrab me a fag, will ya?âÂ
Animosity congealed in your mouth. The fucking gall to request favours of you. âFrom where?âÂ
âBag in the back there,â he said simply, âlightâs in there too.âÂ
âFine.âÂ
You peered behind the headrest, his unzipped duffle bag was dumped on the back seat; just out of reach if you were to extend an arm between the gap. Instead you had to twist your entire body and contort yourself through the middle, waist between the front seats as you climbed over the console.
You resented being in such a position, arse jutting out towards the windshield, unable to see the driver that sat so close to you â so you were quick about it, burrowing through the sack, stuffed to the brim with junk, and myriad different brands of cigarette cartons.Â
âWhich ones do you want,â you asked impatiently.
He huffed as he thought about it. âWhatâve we got?âÂ
âUm,â you murmured, digging through the cardboard cartons. âMayfairs, Richmonds⊠uh. Embassies, Davidoffsââ
âMh. Giâs a davidoff,â he interrupted.Â
You followed his instruction and plucked out the trim red box, and an orange Bic lighter once you found it at the bottom of the bag, wedged between wads of cash. You peeled away the thin plastic covering and flipped open the card lid as you reeled your body back between the seats â immediately you caught him lavishing your rear in attention. He sniffed casually when he caught your eye, utterly shameless.Â
Heart shuddered in your ears as you sat back down in your seat, gooseflesh prickling up in your skin as you held the carton out for him to pluck out a roll.Â
He pinched the end of one and stuck it between lips curled over his teeth, before gesturing wordlessly for you to give him the lighter.Â
âYouâre a doll,â he said, muffled by the filter in his lips. Jaw jutted out to angle up the cigarette, he flicked the lighter in his fist with his thumb, little orange flame hovering under the end of the roll as he sucked it.Â
âWhatever,â you grumbled, swiftly turning away from him to return your attention to the road out the window.Â
Seemed he was approaching some area of population, little brick houses began popping up on the side of the street, lampposts peppering the road ahead. A surge of adrenaline made your hackles spike up â bystanders, you thought, people who might have heard you if you screamed loud enough.Â
âWant a puff?â He asked indifferently.Â
âI donât smoke,â you snarked, distracted.Â
He snorted. âGoodie girl, are ya?âÂ
âNo,â you said curtly.Â
âMh, thatâs right â youâre a little thief,â he taunted. âNot a good girl at all.âÂ
There was no response that would spare you his teasing, so you kept your mouth shut. Stayed silent for the remainder of the drive, in fact, a solid quarter-hour â until the car bounced over something and you jolted in your seat. Quickly realised he had pulled up into a parking lot as the truck began to slow.Â
A two-star Travelodge, evidently, one planted directly on the side of the northbound highway. It looked barren, coral bricks all grimy with lichen and sludgy brown water stains, every window blocked by shut curtains. Not a single light glowed from within a hotel room, only the dim yellow lantern bolted to the wall above the sliding door at the entrance.Â
You held your tongue in your teeth as he drove to a park at the very back of the lot, under a low-hanging tree branch, concealed by shadow. Your skin began to itch, crawling with bugs and alight with adrenaline â you could run, now, if he opened your door. Maybe you could sprint to the nearest building and hammer on the door, shriek that youâd been kidnapped, and to please please call the police. Or, maybe you could try to snatch his gun from him and shoot him in the fucking head.Â
Instead you sat still in your seat. Felt your chest breaking out in a panic rash.Â
âRighâ,â he said casually as he killed the engine, the suspension of the truck bouncing under the weight of him as he adjusted in his seat. âLook at me.âÂ
You shook your head in refusal. Entire body stiff as wood. Anticipation frayed your nerves and made your hairs stand on end. It was suddenly real.Â
You kept your eyes pinned away from him, but it was futile, because he reached a massive arm across the gap and seized your jaw in a single hand. Fingers dimpled your cheeks as he twisted your head to face him, and you attempted to scowl at him, but your quivering lip made plain your alarm.Â
âYou gonna make a fuss?â He asked stiffly, pinching his cigarette with his free fingers, silvery smoke clouding out from behind his teeth.Â
You just about said no on reflex, but bit down on it instead, because it likely would have been a lie. Only pouted at him scornfully and shivered in his grip.Â
âWhat dâyou think will happen if you do.âÂ
You swallowed. âYouâll shoot me.âÂ
He shook his head. âWould be an uncomfortable night for you, though, I can tell yâthat.âÂ
A crease pulled between your brows. âAre you going to â to beat me up, or something?âÂ
He chuckled at that, a cocksure grin; you suddenly felt a weight in your chest, burning hot, made your ribs sink and your heart flutter.Â
You hadnât yet seen his face up close. His cheeks were stubbled, skin peppered with freckles and the creases of early aging. Teeth were sharp and unexpectedly white, raffishly crooked with pointed canines, a silver cap on a premolar. His lips were full, pale, a single scar running through the top one, white stripe in the ruddy pink.Â
The shame returned with a kick to the stomach when you noticed yourself staring at his mouth, and you tried to look away from him, but he riveted your head in place.Â
âDonât plan on it,â he said, after a beat too long.Â
Sweat pricked along your hairline. âThen what.â
âIâd like to have a nice long snooze,â he grumbled. âI donât wanna be up all night wrangling you. So if you throw a tantrum youâll be sleeping tied up with a sock in your throat. Sâthat what you want?âÂ
âNo,â you chirped.Â
He nodded approvingly. âI donât want that either. I like the sound oâ your voice. Be a shame to snuff it out, wouldnât it?âÂ
You attempted to nod, and though his hand kept you still he understood the intention. With a ragged sigh he finally released you, giving you a condescending pat on the cheek.Â
With a grunt he suddenly twisted and leaned between the seats, gargantuan body taking up the entire cab as he reached behind you to grab his duffle bag, and you wedged yourself against the door to avoid touching him.Â
Clambered about as he reeled the giant bag back to the front, before snatching the car keys out of the ignition and unlocking the driver side door. He kicked it open and hopped out with a huff, immediately slamming it shut behind him â only unlocked your door with his keys once he was directly outside it, pre-empting any of your attempts to slip away.Â
He opened the door for you with a clunk, and the biting air of the late autumn night made your entire body tighten up.Â
âGet out,â he said. Â
You nodded, swivelling yourself on your bottom and sliding out of the truck cab, landing directly in front of him. He flicked his cigarette to the ground and left the stub smoking on the concrete.Â
âCâmon.â He fixed a hand to your bicep and yanked you away from the car, shutting the door with a slam.Â
You were light on your feet as he ferried you towards the entrance to the cheap hotel, his other fist white-knuckled around the strap of his bag.Â
âYou donât needââ you chirped, almost tripping over your feet, ââto hold me so tight.âÂ
âNo?â He snorted.Â
âIâm not gonna run,â you spat, hushed despite yourself.Â
âObviously.â
The sliding glass doors trundled open as you approached them, a tired ding echoing out to welcome you. The reception was quiet, poorly lit by vibrating fluorescent bars, stunk of fresh linen toilet spray and floor cleaner.Â
Your abductor let go of your arm abruptly when he noticed the receptionist â a teenage boy with headphones on, who disinterestedly looked up from a Nintendo Switch to address the tall brute that sauntered in with you in tow.Â
âYâafter a room?â The kid asks monotonously.Â
âStandard double.â
The receptionist clicked around on the computer, smacking chewing gum between his teeth. âHow many nights.âÂ
âJust the one.âÂ
Click click. âItâs sixty-eight for the night.âÂ
âYâtake cash?âÂ
The kid frowned dubiously at that, jaw hanging open as he rolled the wad of white gum along his tongue. âSure.âÂ
âLovely,â your abductor grunted, unzipping the flap of his duffle bag and fishing out a thick wad of paper notes.Â
Jaw gaped as you watched him unashamedly finger between the notes to pluck out three twenties and a tenner, slapping them on the counter of the reception before tucking the stack away again. As agape as the receptionist at his brazenness, all but showing off his spoils, plainly stolen.Â
The kid pouted skeptically as he swiped the notes and counted them again, tucking them aside, and you wondered if he used the same technique as you.Â
He dropped a keycard on the counter. âRoom thirteen,â he said.Â
âCheers.âÂ
Your abductor scooped up his bag and planted his other hand on the small of your back, nudging you ahead of him towards the narrow hallway, never allowing more than two feet to grow between his body and yours.Â
You glanced around feverishly as you wandered meekly down the corridor, identical doors mirroring each other for as far as you could see, until the hall turned a corner. Eyes clung to the glowing green emergency exit lights dotted along the ceiling, as if they might lead you to your salvation.Â
âCanât believe you actually paid for a room,â you murmured spitefully, when he nudged you forward by the arse as if guiding a ewe.Â
âWouldnât want to break the law,â he chuffed.Â
In any other circumstance you wouldâve giggled. You might have found him funny if he werenât the deranged fugitive who had kidnapped you.Â
A yank of your shirt stopped you in your tracks, tugging you back â your abductor had flippantly taken your t-shirt in a fist, as he shoved the key card into its slot under the handle of a door behind you.Â
âIn,â he snipped, shoving you through the door once he had pushed it open.Â
The room was small. Hardly enough room for the double bed in the middle of it, skinny end tables wedged on either side. The only amenities were a shin-height fridge and a kettle on a bench, tucked into a nook by the door. It was hot in there, too â radiator bubbling all day, you guessed, to counteract the cold weather.Â
Immediately you fixed your stare on the window by the bed; a good metre across, brown aluminium trim, lumpy textured glass that distorted the view of whatever sat directly outside the hotel room. Ground floor, you thought, easy to slip out, if you could open it â
Noticed, then, that there was no indication it could be opened at all. No hinges, no frames, no handles. Simply a flat plane of glass stuck in the wall.Â
Your stomach wrung itself, and you did your best not to keel over. The air was suddenly infinitely stuffier, sweltering, torrid in your lungs.Â
He flipped shut the bolt on the door, and landed a pat on your shoulder. You could unlatch it, obviously, but the old thing was squeaky, clanking old brass, and undoing it would certainly alert him.Â
He nudged you out of his way and dumped his duffle bag on the floor beside the bed, evidently claiming the side closest to the door, as if prepared to catch you should you try to slip around him.Â
In truth, the notion of escape was scarcely a whisper. Supplanted by a nauseating docility â a survival instinct, you thought, to simply behave. To do as you were told.Â
He began undressing himself, uninterested in whether you observed him; shucked off his old leather jacket and hung it over the back of his bag, unlaced and kicked off his muddy old boots. Your toes curled involuntarily into the soles of your shoes, watching him like a degenerate, as he tore off his hoodie and t-shirt and tossed them to the floor.Â
Something out of a movie, you thought; gargantuan beast of a man, broad-shouldered and cladded in such a dizzying mass of muscle and adipose bulk that he looked encumbered by it all. The icteric light of the sconces by the bed carved out the divots in his back, the valley of his spine, the symmetrical dimples above the waistband of his jeans â you felt sick with yourself, that you even let your eyes venture there, but they cleaved fast to him despite your chagrin.Â
He was slathered in tattoos as you had imagined, all flames and skulls and barbed wire, broken up by the occasional stamp of something more meaningful â a sacred heart, serif-font numbers, somebodyâs name with a date beneath it. You could read it from where you stood; Johnny, 11/2023.
You were only thankful he hadnât turned around â couldnât see you leering at him, and spared you having to see him from the front.Â
âStill need to piss?â He asked roughly, and your lips twisted.Â
âNo,â you said, still standing awkwardly by the door.Â
He snickered. âSeemed pretty desperate before.âÂ
âI â yeah,â you stammered, âI donât know. Iâm fine.âÂ
Gave you a shrug as he lumbered into the ensuite bathroom, and you heard the unbuckling of a belt and zip of a fly, the clunk of metal on a counter, then the steady stream of his piss landing in the toilet water.Â
You scoffed in revulsion. Fucking pig. Couldnât even close the door. You heard him rinse off his hands at least, though you couldnât be sure he had used any soap.Â
He emerged from the bathroom rubbing his shaven head and with his belt undone, leather straps hanging loose from his hips, zipper of his jeans wide open. His gun was gone. Plaid boxers bunched up, distended by the mass within and protruding through his fly â you felt yourself turn berry pink, more repulsed by yourself than him.Â
This time he caught you staring, and he was manifestly pleased about it. A smug grin pulled in his lips as he shuffled towards you, and you rested your weight on your hind foot.Â
âYâwant a Valium?â He asked you, and you frowned at him bewilderedly.Â
âWhat?âÂ
In front of you, now, you panted like a cornered animal in the shadow he cast. âMight help you sleep.âÂ
You grimaced at him. âYou just want to knock me out.âÂ
He snorted. âWhy would I do that?âÂ
The daggers you stared at him served as your only reply, and he half-heartedly rolled his eyes at you.Â
âYou reckon Iâd want to fuck a sleeping bird?âÂ
âProbably,â you muttered, averting his gaze when he uttered the word.Â
âNo fun in that,â he said simply. âNo nice noises if youâre asleep.âÂ
You scoffed, perturbed by how he discussed it happening with you as if it were an inevitability. âWhat, like screaming?â
He cracked a grin. âScreamer, are ya?â
Your blood went runny. âStop it.âÂ
He brushed a knuckle under your chin, and you flinched â but to your relief, he relented. Turned away from you and squeezed the back of his neck as if to release tension.Â
âGet into bed,â he grumbled, plodding towards the bathroom, returning swiftly with his gun in hand.Â
You went cold. âWhy?âÂ
âThe fuck do you think?â He replied curtly, shoving his pistol under his pillow, before he pulled his jeans down and your mouth went dry.Â
âI donât want to,â you squeaked.Â
He chuffed at that. âChrist, fucking is the only thing on your mind, inât it?â He taunted, âdonât get all worked up.âÂ
âIâm â Iâm not worked up, youââ
âIâm too tired for this shit,â he grunted, âân Iâm not havinâ you up and about while Iâm sleeping. Get into bed or Iâll put you in bed.âÂ
There was no give in his expression, it was a final order. He did look tired â eyes were sunken and beset with aubergine rings, lids heavy with frustration and exhaustion. He stood with hands hooked on his hips as he impatiently awaited your acquiescence, and you sensed you were on a short timer.ïżœïżœÂ
âFine,â you murmured, shuffling around the end of the bed with your arms crossed tightly, eyes averting him.
He watched you, though. Scrutinised your every move as you bent over to untie your shoelaces, pulling off your converses and dumping them on the carpet.Â
âSleepinâ in your jeans?â He jeered, when you reached to pull back the blankets.
âIâm not taking my clothes off,â you retorted, sitting on the mattress and swiftly tucking yourself under the covers. The mattress was foamy, soft, sunk deep as though permanently impressed by all the bodies that have ever slept in it.Â
âHardly comfortable,â he said, smirking, decidedly amused.Â
âDonât care,â you groused, rolling onto your side away from him, blanket up to your ears.Â
He chuckled. âSuit yourself.â
You bounced on the mattress as he fell into it, springs moaning as they sunk deep beneath him, and you felt your body tip back towards him â you curled up, as close to the edge of the bed as you could get without toppling over the side.Â
He switched off the sconce above the bed, and the room was abruptly black as pitch.Â
The mattress recoiled as he adjusted himself, settling into bed with a gruff sigh, and you felt his warm breathing on the back of your head.Â
He seemed to find comfort quickly; exhales turning deep and languid, you sensed he had fallen asleep the moment his head hit the pillow.Â
There was some relief in that. Temporarily escaping him while he was unconscious.Â
With your heart thundering in your ears, though, sleep was impossibly out of reach for you. You could hardly keep your eyes shut, they fluttered and twitched as you tried to close them, and theyâd bolt back open as though spring-loaded.Â
Nowâs your chance â it echoed ad nauseum in your skull like the chiming of a clock, over and over until your ears rang.Â
You could have slithered out of bed and scurried to the door, unbolted it and ran down the hallway if you were quick enough. You could have used the steel-legged chair in the corner to shatter the window and sprint into the night. You could have slipped a hand under his pillow nice and slow, snatched his gun from under his head and shot him while he slept.Â
Instead you lay dead still, save for the trembling that never quite subsided.Â
You tried to vivisect your own mind while you stagnated in the bed. Attempted to determine why you failed to enact your own rescue, why you actively avoided pursuing your freedom.Â
The answer eluded you, in concrete terms anyway.Â
Truth was, you didnât know where youâd go.Â
Literally, of course â you had no idea where you were, no phone with you, no sense of direction. You could run to a bystander and ask, of course, but you didnât want to do that either.Â
It was as if you didnât want to go back.Â
The thought of it nauseated you almost as gruesomely as the uncertainty of the path ahead. Of being dragged back to Dunhill, of being back to square one, of having no money, no prospects, no future.Â
It was the obscurity, you thought, that kept you there. Something new. Something different, albeit terrifying. The ambiguity of any future, however short, was somehow preferable than the certainty of not having one at all.Â
Worse to admit was whatever churning you felt between your legs. What seed he had planted when he took you had taken root, tendrils burrowing into the recesses of you and tumescing with a reluctant anticipation. You all but throbbed with it, as if your body were preparing itself for the inevitable, manipulating your mind into assenting to it.Â
It made you feel sick, and your skin was febrile, sticky with apprehension.Â
You were baking â the air was thick with it, stifling heat, though in truth it was likely your thundering nerves that set your body alight. Too anxious to release yourself from under the covers, or to roll into a cooler position, or to flip over your pillow to the cooler side.Â
You lay cocooned for as long as you could bear the heat, but your blood was molten and your head began to ache, and you resorted to uncovering yourself.Â
You did it desperately slowly, peeling the cover away from you inch by inch, and even in the air you found no relief. Your last resort was to turn off the radiator â if you could â but youâd need to get out of bed for that.Â
Slinked a leg over the edge of the mattress, whisper-slow, used your elbow to prop yourself upâ
You felt a hand grab at your hip, and you were unceremoniously yanked back into the bed with a squeak.Â
âWhere dâyou think youâre goinâ,â he grunted, voice gratingly hoarse after a half-hour sleep.Â
A ten-tonne arm was suddenly hooked over your waist, and you were flush with his back, his knees folded in behind yours.Â
âI just wanted to turn the heater off,â you whispered, hoping he wouldnât hear you.Â
âToo hot, eh?âÂ
You exhaled shakily. âYeah.âÂ
âYâknow why youâre too hot,â he murmured, and you felt him stick his fingers into the back of your skinny jeans, tugging the stretchy waistband and snapping it against your lower back. Â
âI just canât s-sleep when itâs warm,â you stuttered, tongue tangling in your mouth.Â
âBit restless, are ya?âÂ
You felt his hand glide over your belly, and your muscles turned to stone, entire body tensing up with the touch.Â
âIâm not havinâ you tossing and turning all night,â he grumbled, thumbing at the button of your jeans, unfastening it with a pinch.Â
âDonât do that,â you breathed, heart plugging your trachea, unable to swallow a real breath.Â
He persisted unimpeded as if he had not heard you, pushing down your zipper and stuffing his hand unhesitantly down the front of your underwear.Â
You squeaked in fright the moment his fingers brushed your mons â every millilitre of blood in your body flooded out of your extremities and pooled between your legs, a reflexive reaction that fired off every nerve ending under your skin.Â
âNo, d-donâtââ your whimpers of refusal eked out between your teeth on instinct, but their root lay more in humiliation than fear.Â
His hand was icy against your feverish skin, and goosebumps bristled out from his touch â your vision went foggy as a cold middle finger the size of two of yours slid along your seam, lips went slack as the tip burrowed deeper.Â
âFuckinâ hell,â he grunted, his stony voice tickling the hairs on the nape of your neck, âyou are warm, arenât ya?â
âStop it,â you whined, half-heartedly, defeat viscid on your tongue.Â
His finger snaked deeper between your legs, the others flush with the puffy outer lips of your cunt, thumb burrowing into your groin as he wedged his hand in the tight gap between your pussy and your jeans.Â
He chortled under breath when the tip of his finger broached your entrance, dipping into the mortifying abundance of your fluid that had pooled there. God, there was so much of it, you were humiliated â you had been in denial, ignoring it, even as you felt it slicken the gusset of your underwear, maybe even the inseam of your jeans. It was only instinctive, you told yourself, it wasnât like thatâ
âJesus Christ, girl,â he chuffed, breathless, and you could not for the life of you tell whether he was proud or disgusted. âMade you wait too long, did I?âÂ
You shivered, cunt pulsing around nothing, felt the nettle sting of adrenaline crawling down your spine.Â
âN-no, Iââ
Bit down on your tongue as his slippery finger dragged up between your folds, catching your clitoris with a swipe and making your legs clamp together in a vice.Â
He only scoffed in awe. âSensitive thing.âÂ
âStop doing that,â you mewled, so embarrassed that your cheeks were aflame, ears burning red-hot, heart galloping in your chest.Â
He didnât believe your attempts at refusal, and you werenât certain you did either â not when he stroked your clit with the palp of his finger, up and down, all of his movement honed in on the one spot that made you choke on air.Â
âNot so bad, is it,â he sneered.Â
You curled up like a cat, but he kept you fastened to him, immovable hand burrowed deep in your jeans. His finger slid between your folds effortlessly despite how hard you pressed your legs together â there was no escaping it, every brush of his fingertip against your slippery clit burned more than the last, igniting an inferno in the core of you that seemed inextinguishable.Â
Fucking humiliating, degrading, shameful, that the brute who had abducted you could make you feel that good, do so little to have you so, soâ
âYouâre a fuckinâ furnace,â he jabbed, and he swiftly tugged his hand from between your legs and out of your jeans.Â
Whatever remorseful noise spilled from your mouth was beyond you, high-pitched and so wanton it made you sick to hear it, but he only snickered.Â
âQuit whingeinâ,â he chided, taking your waistband in a fist.
He hiked your jeans down with a violent tug, tearing them down to your thighs, underwear pulled down with them. What little abnegation you had left turned to sugar on your tongue, dissolving in your saliva and sliding down your throat.Â
The blanket was gone, then, pulled off and pooled at the end of the bed â the slightly cooler air biting at your bare skin scarcely settled your tempers, even less so when he roughly shoved his hand between your legs again, now unobstructed. Three avid fingers prodded against your hole as if to collect the syrup that pooled there, slickening themselves before they dragged back up.Â
You yelped like a kicked puppy when he kneaded your clit, pads of his fingers pressing and pulling in firm circles, bud swollen and shuddering and so sensitive it was sore.Â
You could only whine about it, now unwilling to fight him off and likely incapable even if you wanted to. He had you riveted to him, chest solid against your back, heaving arm locking you in place. Your compunctions had melted, deliquescing into the stodgy recesses of your mind; usurped by the revoltingly animal, blood-thinning want that thundered in your temples and made your mouth all wet.Â
âDonât, p-please, youâreââ
âThaâs it, girl,â he rumbled, directly into the back of your skull, and it made you dizzy. âLet it happen.âÂ
Your core tightened up, cunt constricting as tight as a vice, painfully empty â the surge was as sudden as a flash flood, just as violent, and you drowned in it as it swept you under. You came beneath his fingers with a winded whimper, so forcefully you bucked your legs to evade him, bullied clit ablaze and spasming in waves that made your heart stop with each contraction.Â
âFuckinâ hell,â he chortled, easing his infliction but not yet stopping. âListen to you.âÂ
âShut up,â you whined, unable to catch your breath.Â
âThatâll help you sleep, eh?â He teased, fingers finally retreating, trailing your slick up your mons before he landed flat on his back with a huff.
You were molten, sweaty hair clinging to the nape of your neck, and you wanted nothing more than to take off all your clothes and have a cold shower. All you could muster was your jeans, though, already half-off â you used your feet to peel them down to your calves, kicking them off into nowhere. Your shame had dissolved, now, utterly irretrievable.Â
The stale air was cool against the wetness of your inflamed cunt when you rolled onto your back; a potent relief, despite how unbecoming you felt it to leave yourself so exposed in the company of a bedlamite.
âNow stop fussing,â he grunted, settling into the mattress, hand resting on his stomach. âDonât want you wakinâ me up again.âÂ
You couldnât have fussed, even if you tried. Body utterly siphoned of all energy, mind as foggy and blank as smoke.Â
It took you less than a minute to fall asleep.Â
Morning came with rain.Â
The glow of daylight through the embossed window was powdery white, you heard the gentle patter of raindrops landing on the pane, the loud dripping of a leaky gutter pipe somewhere outside.Â
Your mouth was chalky, tongue swollen, vision too blurry to identify where you were at a glance.Â
The realisation rinsed you like cold water when you heard the gruff breathing from beside you. Heavy and deep, the warmth of a body lying too close to you, you felt the hirsute skin of a leg against yours.Â
You were nauseous as you remembered the night before, when your legs brushed together and you noticed they were bare â no underwear on either, the sheets tangled up between your feet and your hair greasy on your forehead. Your cunt was still sticky and it made you wince to move and feel it, remembering how he had touched you, that his fingers were likely still covered in the dried residue of the orgasm he had milked from you.Â
The remorse was as pounding as a migraine. Brontide in your skull that made the room spin, and you wanted nothing more than a glass of icy water and some ibuprofen. Â
You peered over your shoulder at your abductor; lying on his side with an arm folded under his pillow, shoulders rising and collapsing with each heavy breath, scarred face somehow peaceful in his slumber. It was surreal to witness him like that, observing him in his most vulnerable state â you knew his gun was under that pillow, but the thought of trying to steal it faltered as fast as it came.Â
Instead you slipped out of the bed, pattering on the soft soles of bare feet to the tiny kitchenette, and filled up a brown glass mug with tap water. You drank it all in three hard gulps, then filled up another.Â
He didnât stir, not even slightly. In such a deep sleep that you likely could have put your jeans back on and unbolted the door without even waking him.Â
Instead you went into the ensuite, shutting the door behind you. The bulbous knob had a push-button to lock it, but it was loose, and no matter how many times you pushed it, it failed. You gave up quickly, though â didnât want to wake him up yet.Â
The bathroom was arranged nonsensically â the toilet sat by the door, the vanity across from the shower that was tucked into the corner. Its glass walls were grimy with limescale, every amenity made of faded ivory acrylic and stained brown at the edges where the janitors had failed to clean it. Â
You flushed the toilet when you saw that he hadnât and swore under your breath in disgust. Fucking animal. You quickly peed, rinsed out your mouth with water from the sink, then turned on the shower. You only had a t-shirt to take off, revolted that it was all you had worn during the night. You hung it on the towel rail.Â
You kept the water lukewarm, too sensitive for cold and too feverish for hot. An array of cheap mini soaps and shampoos lined the tiny in-built caddy, and you were not frugal in using them. Used almost the entire bottle of body wash to lather every crevice of your body, washing away the sweat of panic and ignominious lust that mired your skin. Shampooed and conditioned your hair with products that smelt like pine and citrus with an undercurrent of battery acid.Â
The water was cleansing, a pleasant distraction, and you shut your eyes as you rinsed off your face, rubbing the grease off your skin.Â
You rubbed your eyes before you opened them â immediately spotted a silhouette outside the shower, and a blood-curdling scream erupted from your chest as you sprung from the ground. Almost slipped over when you landed on the PVC floor, but you managed to catch yourself with your hands on the glass.
âWhat the fuck!â You shrieked, heart galloping so rapidly you worried it would break a rib.Â
He was blurry through the spray of water landing on the shower walls, but you could see him lumber towards the shower door. You shrunk into the corner when he cracked it open, back firm against the square tiles as if you could slip through the fractures in the grout.Â
He stepped into the shower as if he hadnât noticed you there, leviathan that he was, his body took up two thirds of the space in the narrow glass box. Boxers were gone, his cock hung heavy and unashamedly, and your stare caught on it like a fish on a hook. Fucking bludgeon of a thing; it swung as though prideful, thick from root to head, roped with veins and sheathed in rosy foreskin. Half-hard, it jutted out from his bed of wheaten curls at a forty-five degree angle, and it bounced as he took a step.Â
You looked at it for too long, breath caught in your gullet, and he noticed.Â
âSettle down,â he taunted, hardly a croak, morning voice abraded and gurgling from his throat. He shut the shower door behind him.Â
You had a plethora of disputes to mount â get the fuck out, how dare you, you didnât even knock â but they all fizzled at the back of your throat, when he hauled you out of the corner by the hips, swivelling you around until your nose was flush with the shower wall. Kept you there with a hand cuffed around the back of your neck, wet hair knotting in his fingers.Â
âYou canâtââ
âPrettier than I thought,â he murmured to himself, a rough hand smoothing from your hip to your ass, brazenly taking a handful and squeezing hard enough to make you chirp.
âGet offââ
You choked on the rest of your dispute when he packed his hand between your legs, the gap tight where you held your thighs together â he gave no warning when he snaked his finger between your folds, nudging for an entrance.Â
It happened so fast you couldnât catch a breath â he found it quickly when your hole twitched at the intrusion, and you yelped in shock when he unhesitantly pushed it inside you to the knuckle, palm flush with the base of you.Â
âLovely little cunt.âÂ
And despite every effort to maintain some dignity, every bulwark you had attempted to erect against succumbing to your baser appetites, came toppling down in the quake of his words. Scruples sloughed off from you like the shed of a snake, and whatever slithered free was as shameless as she was hungry.Â
âMh, still nice and warm after last night, inât she,â he crooned, flexing his finger to push it deeper before raking it out.Â
He was priming you, evident in how he stretched you open around his thick finger, pumping it in and out of you as though assessing how deep he could go. You pressed your forehead against the cold tile, toes curling into the plastic shower floor, whimpering like a wounded animal.
You felt like one, when he tried to push a second finger in â he had to wriggle it to wedge it in, bully it deeper before your hole could stretch to fit it. It stung where the fragile skin pulled taut, but it was a delicious pain, like the burn of liquor or the sting of pulled hair.Â
âChrist, thatâs tight,â he grunted into the shell of your ear, and a chill prickled down the side of your neck.Â
He ran out of patience, you supposed, because he slid his fingers out of you and your cunt spasmed in protest of its emptiness. He had spun you around then, handling your body like a ragdoll, moving you right where he wanted you â had his hands under your ass in a blink, and he deftly hoisted you upward, back grinding against the tile wall.Â
You hooked your legs around his hips on instinct, arms slung over his shoulders when he put them there, his face level with yours. Water ran in rivulets down his face, dripping from his hairline and off his chin. Pupils distended and black as tar, beady as a shark, and glaring into the depths of them made your tongue even wetter.Â
His titanic arms held you up without exertion, and one released your thigh to scoop underneath you â held his cock upright in a fist, and with no pause he lodged the clubbed head of his cock against your opening. He pushed in with his full weight, reaming you open on the girth of it, and your eyes glassed over.Â
The noises you made were animal, mewling and gasping, coughing when he landed against the spongy plug of your womb, cock as hard as a gun barrel and just about as threatening.Â
âFu-hu-huck,â he chuffed into your cheek, voice oozing ardent satisfaction, vibrating directly into your skull. âThaâs heaven.âÂ
It tracked that he was a talker, given how chatty he was for the duration of the drive â but you liked it. God, you liked it. Mortifying, yet liberating to admit to yourself, that you wanted to hear him talk; you wanted to hear him tell you how lovely, how pretty, how perfect you were.Â
âAll sweet now, arenât ya?â He purred, bouncing you upward as he rutted hard. âJust what she needed, mh?â
You almost said it aloud â yes crept along your tongue and prickled at the tip, but you werenât quite ready to let loose the confession. It escaped instead as a moan, head rocking back and knocking against the tile, and he let out a low chuckle, because you said it in all but words.Â
âYeah,â he grunted, panting, pelvis grinding against yours as he pistoned into you, somehow deeper every thrust. âFuckinâ knew it. Barmy for it the second I walked in, werenât ya?âÂ
He grabbed your face by the jaw, angling your head to look directly at him, the squeeze of his fingers forcing your lips to pucker. His cheeks were ruddy, blood fresh and hot under his skin, eyes rabid with hunger and pride. They scoured every feature on your face and you melted beneath their attention.Â
âGorgeous girl, arenât you?âÂ
He rutted with purpose, chasing his own end with no mind paid to your squeaks of sore rapture, grunting as his cock reeled out and stuffed you full again in steady rhythm. You could only burrow your fingernails into the meat of his back, carving into his wet skin as if holding on for dear life.Â
âJust fuckinâ perfect,â he grunted, a tirade that persisted through every thrust,Â
âSweetest thing I ever stole.âÂ
âWho needs fuckinâ money, eh?âÂ
âHit the jackpot with you, dinât I?âÂ
âMight just keep you forever.âÂ
âYouâd like that, wouldnât ya, sweetheart?âÂ
Perhaps your brain had been knocked against your skull one too many times, turned soggy and stupid in the heat, because you whimpered; âY-yeah.âÂ
His brows shot up at that, shocked â but that surprise quickly gave way to a lavish conceit, a vicious smile that oozed pride for having conquered your inhibitions without even having to try. Youâd have been embarrassed if you had the capacity for it anymore, but all shame had been bled from you.Â
âYeah?â He goaded, grin wide and jaw loose, panting through his teeth. âWant me to steal you away, eh?âÂ
You nodded as much as he would allow you to, and his lips planted on your chin as though tempted to bite you.Â
âI can do that, love,â he crooned, âI can take yâwhere no one will ever find ya. Keep you all for mâself.âÂ
You whined when he only fucked you harder, tender skin of your back chafing against the grout with every jolt. Seemed he was approaching the summit of his own pleasure â huffing like a bull, thrusting with anger, not nearly as chatty as he had been for the rest of it.Â
âAgh, shitââ he groaned, mouth landing on your shoulder, teeth catching your skin. âFuckinâ hellââ
He hastily reached underneath you to unsheathe his cock from your hole, leaving your cunt bitterly empty and convulsing in its sudden vacuity â his entire body jerked against you as he came, you felt his cock jolt beneath the cleft of you as it spurted ropes come against the tiled wall he held you to.Â
His climactic groans were music, to you, little lecher that you were. Some foul part of you was remorseful he hadnât come inside you instead, hadnât carelessly pumped you full of it â not a drop of rationality left within you, evidently.Â
You didnât expect him to kiss you, but he did; planted a slovenly kiss on the side of your neck, pillowy lips wet with saliva and the water of the still-running shower.Â
He released you, then â didnât quite drop you, lowered you as gracefully as he could before letting you land on your feet with a thud. Gave you a pet on the head as though to praise you, a prideful kiss into your scalp.Â
He shut off the water with a shove of the chipping lever, and the showerhead continued to leak fat drops of water despite it being shut off. He pushed opened the shower door for you, and you slipped out, sodden feet landing on the bathmat.Â
There were scant words exchanged as you handed him one of the towels, using the other to dry yourself off. You couldnât help but watch him as he rubbed himself down with the teal-blue cotton, polishing his head like a bowling ball, flossing under his arms, unabashedly rubbing the towel under his balls to dry between his legs. Something in his nonchalance, unapologetically going about it all as if it were normal, was endearing to you. Made your hackles soften, if they were still at all raised.Â
You put your t-shirt back on, wishing you had a change of clothes, and ventured back into the bedroom â the air was still thick with the dusty warmth of the heater, and ripe with the musk of both of the worked up bodies that had spent the night in it.Â
âGet dressed,â came a demand from behind you, followed by a coaxing pat on your bare arse. âNeed to hit the road.âÂ
You looked over your shoulder at him, watching as he pulled on his boxers, tucking his cock away and snapping the elastic waistband around his hips. You picked up your knickers from where they had landed on the carpet the night before, shimmying up your legs.Â
Couldnât yet believe what you were girding yourself for. What you had already accepted as the next step you would take.Â
You caught his eye, a pout in your lips;Â
âCan we get breakfast first?âÂ

âYou wonât believe what just happened, oh man!â Mark exclaimed with glee; an unfamiliar look of pride swam within his irises. It was the night he received his powers; a deep crater buried itself into your driveway from his failed landing. âWhat?â you questioned, prying your front door open as he entered. There were scuff marks littered across his naked upper body, battered and bruised from his knightly adventure. âIt was incredible. IâI flew,â he explained, his hand gesturing excitedly. This was a dream of his; he would craft makeshift suits and detail desired escapades to save the world. However, for it to come true was another story.
âNo way! This⊠this is a funny joke,â you sputtered. One doesnât usually acquire powers at random, but in this dimension, who knows? âNo, really. I took a huge leap off my roof, not really expecting anything,â he interrupted to soften the already ridiculous landing of his story. âYou know, and I just took off.â The topic was so exhilarating; the thought of questioning him hadnât dawned upon you. He leaned against the back of your couch, crossing his arms as you two reminisced.
âWaitâwhy were you jumping from the roof anyway? What if nothing happened and you fell?â you questioned with a raised brow. âI know, I know, itâs stupid. But I was curious and decided to give it a try,â he rationalized quietly, fingers nervously scratching his nape. âAw⊠I want powers now,â you feigned sadness as you sulked. It was your attempt at being amusing, but truthfully, you felt left behind. Was it envy? Was it the need to feel important? Was it the fear of him leaving you behind to begin his journey as a hero? You didnât know at the time. His expression became tinged slightly with guilt. âHey, donât worry, Iâm sure youâll get powers soon,â he reassured you, but it was too humorous to be sincere.
âYeah⊠soon. Real funny, wasnât it?â you said to yourself as your body perched against a rooftop. It was the second day of the Mark variants ravaging Earth like their playground. The once-majestic towers now stand as skeletal frames, their glass windows shattered. Debris litters the streets, a tragic mix of shattered concrete and twisted metal, and the air hangs heavy with the scent of smoke and ash. Heroes formed makeshift shelters and sifted through rubble for survivors.
The Mark you once knew was head over heels for Atom Eve. It was no secret; he was a lost puppy whose ears would perk at the sound of his name on her tongue. Utterly devoted. Sickeningly in love. You were the very last to discern his truth. The two were written in stone, but it left a bitter taste in your mouth that you had long since gotten over. Until now. You were late to the news of the world's destruction. A strangely familiar face appeared on the news, a version of Mark that made your chest tighten. Within your family, a strange ability was acquiredâa power bred through evolution to ensure survival in a world full of the unknown. Once in a lifetime, through a series of visions, you would discover a pivotal moment in time to peer through. That moment was now. Eighteen variants were loose internationally, each with their own tragic story and love interests. Six had dated or lost their Atom Eve, five had slain their worlds' Amber, and six had been devoted to you.
Helping where you could, you began assisting in fighting off the weaklings who figured now was the best time to attack Earth. Micro tears riddled your uniform as you tore through them mercilessly, all through a look of pity. There were days you'd resent this âjobâ you'd granted yourself, the little recognition and appreciation you'd receive from the public. How selfish of themâand you. You wanted an excuse to have this world fair alone without a need to rebel when no one would notice. As luck would have it, a voice suddenly dawned behind you, his body floating midair and adorned with the appearance of your dearest friend.
Mohawk Mark
âOh, shit⊠I know you,â he rasped, his expression twisted into a cocky grin. His stature and pose were that of confidenceâand a man who caused insurmountable damage to those he met. âYou look just like her,â he continued, his feet finding purchase on the ground as his stride increased. âSorry, you've got the wrong oneâtry finding herââ Just as you spoke, static buzzed in your skullâa low crackling hum that drowned out the edges of the memory before it fully formed. It was thereâjust beyond reachâshrouded in white noise.
The harder you focused, the more the static swelled, but for a moment, the interference cleared. A voiceâthe ghost of a feelingâand just as quickly, it was swallowed again. You understood the gist; he was indeed one you would find yourself tangled with. âLooks like youâve been through some tough shitâmind if I join you?â Without waiting for a response, he lunged forward, grappling you in a powerful embrace. His intent wasn't one of danger but instead of safekeeping despite his demeanor. Reflexes took over as you slammed against his cranium with the strength you could muster, effectively knocking him back.
"Fuck, you're a feisty one," Mohawk Mark growled, his breath hot against your ear. "I like that shit. Let's see how you handle this." His chuckle was condescendingâyet a thrill shot through you. ââWon't be handling shit,â you quipped before biting into his neckâjust rigid enough to draw blood. He groaned, his flight knocking you two back into an alleyway.
Similarly to your Mark, he seemed attracted to strength, his veins pumping with lust rather than adrenaline. Holding a firm grasp of your jaw, his lips collided with yours in a searing and blood-stained kiss. The muscle of his tongue forcefully parted your lips as he sought to taste you against his own. Finding yourself against the wall, your legs wrapped around the width of his waist, your ass snugly hovering over his pelvis.
He pulled away every few seconds to watch your expression succumb to your selfish wants. Sex with the enemy was enticing and you werenât letting him escape any time soon. âYou planned this?â you murmured between the saliva-ridden kisses. âThat would be telling. You know enough if youâre agreeing to this.â His voice grew to tease as he licked his lipsâmirroring his satisfaction before peppering kisses down your exposed neck.
His version of sex was rough, with small increments of romanceâonly reserved for the best prize. With muffled groans, his teeth harshly nipped their way lower, his fingers tearing through the fabric of your suit. As he continued down your now-exposed cleavage, his tongue ran along the scantily clad lace of your bra. Staring up at you, he let out a mischievous snicker before his teeth snagged the cup and tore it from your chestâleaving it discarded on the ground.
âShit⊠was fucking not enough? Had to ruin my clothes too,â you complained as your hips bucked against his pointedly. This earned a guttural grunt from the flesh of your breasts, as he heaved out a response. âYouâll forget about them anyway,â he dismissed as he continued until your panties were the last to be removed. The cool air dusted your wet cuntâits arousal seeping through your folds like honey. Its chill made you shiver and like bees to nectar, his tongue feasted before his eyes.
Hoisting you up, your thighs rested against his shoulders as he knelt, the angle allowing his tongue to slip inside your already spasming pussy. An unusual pink hue dusted his cheek as he stared up at you in utter bliss. Your fingers dug into his forearms, your puffy folds pressed against his lips as he devoured you. With your head resting against the wall, your hips ground themselves relentlessly against his tongue.
"Mmm, shit, already soaking wet for me," he taunted, pumping his tongue in and out of your tight cunt. His tongueârough and texturedâlashed out to lap at your clit, sending jolts of pleasure through your body. His groans sent mild vibrations through you as his fingers reached up to paw at your tits, nipples stiffened in the cold air. You couldn't help but moan as he ate you out with relentless intensity, his tongue plunging deep into your folds. His calloused hands roamed your exposed flesh, pinching and kneading your breasts, twisting your sensitive nipples until they grew numb.
His hands couldn't stop their explorationâthey explored what he had lost many years ago. Sparks flew as his tongue circled against your clit, flickering the bundle of nerves with a speed inexperienced before. Every time you neared the precipice of your orgasm, his tongue would flatten as he sucked your clitâruining the rhythm. You tugged his hair with a frustrated groan, and his eyes rolled into his skull with an amused moan.
Finally pulling away, he stood to his feet. His lips parted to speak when suddenly, âHurry the fuck up,â you said curtly with exasperated gasps. With lidded eyes, a Cheshire grin settled across his features. âYes, maâam.â Prying his suit off, he palmed his dampening erection. For once he fell silent as anticipation ate away at you both. As he freed his cock from the confinement of his boxers, it slapped against his lower abdomen.
It stood with a veiny girthâthe tip kissed a rosy red like his many mistresses' lipsticks. With a pleased hiss, he stroked himself brieflyâeyes just barely losing focus from the buildup before he plunged himself into you. Your pussy hugged him with a familiarity that felt like home, the painful stretch soon becoming one of bliss. His hips began to quicken, wanting to see your fucked-out expression like never before.
However, his greed overwhelmed him as the stimulation grew difficult to ignore. His usual grunts and growls diluted into groans and profanities. The alleyway echoed with the cacophony of moans that mingled in the airâinharmonious, yet emotion-filled as a flame flickered within your core. âIâve waited so fucking long for this,â he grunted, a grin etched into his lips. âN-None of themâno ssslut compares to this. Only pussy I needâonly woman I want.â A groan interrupted his sentence as your cunt contracted around himâswallowing him at the base.
Thatâs rightâevery harem formed and woman fucked was so he could ruin the image of you that plagued his mind in its grief. The vulnerability of it all made your toes curl, even if it wasn't much.
The fingers pawing at your breasts began kneading them like stress balls, until they were red. Truthfully, he missed every inch of youânot that he would admit that, especially since you werenât exactly his. A high-pitched moan ripped from your throat as he continued to bounce you on his dick. Pre-cum coated your insides as the sounds of arousal grew louder, his balls tightening. With every thrust, he could see the air physically leave you, the scuff marks from brick marking your skin.
He could barely tell where to focus his eyesâon your tits or face? Both were gorgeous but fuck, he should just kidnap you and take you home with him, right? âFuuuuck, Mark⊠Iâm g-goââ you groaned as your fingernails indented into his skin, a pain and pleasure-filled gasp crawling from his throat. âFuck, yeahâŠâ he said, his raspy voice cracking with the slightest whine. âTake it⊠s-shit, take itâŠ!â It was a growl as his eyes fluttered shut to hide his eyes practically rolling around his skull. With a clenched jaw, his dick began to milk itself. The pleasure mounted as your impending orgasm washed your body in a sweat-breaking heat. Just as he came, your cunt spasmed, once he pulled out, something within snapped as an aroused gush squirted from you.
His groin was now coated in your scent, taste, and the result of your rough fucking. The pleasure racked your brain as tears threatened to spill over. Noticing thisâand pleased with his effortsâhe let out a short chortle, a hand coming up to swipe your folds and have a final taste. His expression turned into a feigned sob as he silently teasedâhis tip running a line between your folds and ass, resisting the temptation to fill your asshole with his seed. Once you two were settled from your high, he spoke up. âHad fun, babe.â Your eyebrow lifted at the newly coined pet name.
Suddenly, a muffled voice in his ear caught his attention. âShitâŠâ he muttered with an annoyed grimace at Angstrom ruining his amusement. âGo on,â you beckoned. âNot yours anywayâso no need to stick around.â It was a light jabâone he received with a satisfied smirk before taking flight. âDoesnât matterâIâll be back,â he replied curtly before disappearing into the horizon.
You stood thereânakedâprocessing what just happened. "Shit, I need a new suit from my apartment.â
Variant #17 Mark (I wouldn't even keep you as a slave in my Empire!) Or Sinister Mark (personalities are similar in the comics, so imagine what you will.)
"You thought you could hide from me?" he said, peering down at you with a friendly grin for someone so domineering. Staring down at the manâs shadow, his cape billowed in the wind. Unlike the other Marks youâd caught a glimpse of, this one barely had a bruise on him. âIâve been looking everywhere for you,â he finished before he landed softly on the ground. As he approached, you remained still, eyebrows creasing into a frown. âIâm notââ You were abruptly cut off by a low voice as his head tilted to stare into your eyes. âDonât play stupid. My version of you had the same powerâbut she resisted our cause.â His voice was tinged with pity as he frowned; he decided to take another route in his approach.
âIâll tell you whatâIâll leave if you come with me,â he offered with an outstretched palm. You vehemently shook your head in disagreement. âIâm not goingâit'll disrupt the timeline.â
âWhy does that matter?â he asked.
âWhat makes you think I won't resist eitherâŠ?â you retorted, causing his eyebrows to raise slightly in thought. âIâll change your mindâand give you what you missed out on in my world.â It was such a matter-of-fact opinionâone rooted in a determination to outclass any obstacle that might deter him. Curiosity bested you the moment you turned to face the chaos erupting in the streets as a strong gust of wind obscured the debris. He was behind you. His fingers draped over your waist as he took flightâand to⊠your apartment? âIâve been watching you for a while now⊠I know all about your preferences. Letâs have some fun, shall we?â His lips just barely grazed your ear.
Amongst the hands that roamed your body, a sense of longing lingered in every squeeze and grope. While being one of the strongestâand surely the most vileâhis personality could be charming like your dimensionâs Mark. Even if feigned for manipulation. He spun you around to face him, that polite smile etched into his face again as his body betrayed innocence. The erection forming within his costume became difficult to ignoreâbut he found a distraction. A touch, a handhold, and finallyâa kiss.
âLet me show you what it's truly like to be satisfied.â His words were reassuring, yet they felt more directed toward his version of you rather than now. His tongue swept into your mouth, tangling itself in a wet heat as he sucked the air from your lungs. The warmth of his fingers spread across your cheek as his tongue attempted to delve impossibly deep. The taste was better than you imaginedânot that you expected any less. If anything, finding him in a forgiving mood proved to be favorable.
His fingers shifted from your face to the back of your costumeâin his attempt to be gentle, he tore the cloth from your body like tissue paper. In an instant, his costume was discarded in the corner, leaving him in snug boxers that hugged his dick. Before you knew it, you were pinned against the bedâa hand flush against your throat as he shrugged slightly. âDidnât mean for that to happen,â he said, an amused huff exiting his nose as you exchanged knowing glances.
The remaining hand gently pried the panties from around your hips and down the length of your legs. His eyes fell upon the wet patch that seeped through the thin fabricâas the semblance of a pleased grin stretched across his lips. Focusing his attention once more, his fingers slowly parted your folds, watching as your velvety walls peeked through the slit. Its warm flesh was invitingâsomething he had yet to try since you retaliated so often against him at home. Just why couldnât you be this welcoming? So willing to be corrupted? So⊠morally gray at the least.
Pressing two digits inside your warmth, he watched it conform to the size of his fingers. An obvious shiver ran through him with each moan that vibrated from your throatâas he imagined you hugging him and wrapped around his cock in plea. The sensations set your skin alight with goosefleshâand each time you attempted to scurry away from his gift, the hold around your neck tightened ever so slightly. He was such a brat.
Your hips ground into his hand, clit colliding with his palm in gentle waves. As his fingers slowly retracted, his cock shyly peeked from the pocket of his boxers. His patience was running thin as he adjusted himself at your entranceâand slowly pushed through. A loud sigh escaped his lips as he bottomed out, his head falling backward as he quietly cursed under his breath. Mirroring his restlessness, your foot hooked around his lower back and pressed him deeper. A drawn-out moan echoed from your throat; he was barely holding on as he gnawed at his lip to contain himself. Reflexively, his hips stuttered before setting a relentless paceâpounding into you with deep, powerful strokes that hit all the right spots.
âAlready so wet for me⊠pathetic. Fucking slut.â His words struck a nerve withinâas you repulsively tightened around him, earning a whine. Your moans echoed through the room, mingling with the slap of skin against skin and Mark's grunts of pleasure. He hammered into you like a man possessedâhis hands gripping your hips hard enough to bruise as he drove you toward climax.
The long thrusts stimulated every inch of his dickâthe veins kissed with every grip of your cunt. âDid your version of me not do it for you?â you teased before taking a sharp breath at his relentless pace. âY-You really donât know when to be quiet,â he gritted. âBut n-no⊠not like this. You're much better. I would take you to be a part of my empire.â He replied, his jaw tightening as his hips drilled into you with renewed conviction at the thought. A second youânot the one heâs attempting to keep as a slave for disobeyingâbut one he could trust to blindly follow his power. His grin grew wolfish as his other hand overlapped your throatâhis gaze shifting between your bouncing tits and pleasured face.
The slight closure of your windpipe didnât allow for much noiseâbut no matter, Mark began to sing like youâd never imagine. It was strangeâthe sound was much louder due to your silence as you clawed at his skin. His voice began to crack as his tightened jaw began to slack. "Fâfucking incredible," he murmured, his voice rough with satisfaction. "I knew⊠you'd be worth every s-second of c-...chasing you down," he sputtered as his length began to twitch inside you.
Seeing someone as strong as him unravel before you was a greater sense of accomplishment than becoming a hero itself. With a closed-lip groan, he began overstimulating himself with the effort to get you off. âHaaa⊠Iâm c-close. UghâŠ!â you muttered through strangled gaspsâas the deprivation of air made you lightheaded and sensitive. Every nerve ending inside your cunt doubled as you went taut beneath him. âCâmon, fucking cum for me,â he heaved.
His thrusts became sloppy as he came inside without warningâdoubling over as a consequence. An unfamiliar sensation painted your insides. You both saw stars as silence pierced the roomâthe slick produced coated his cock in a glaze. Through bated breaths, his fingers finally released their grip around you as you coughed out a response. âI have to admit⊠youâre hard to deny,â you said, momentarily spent as you lay before him. âSweeââ He was cut off by a voice in his ear.
It was Angstrom demanding his presence over the city. âWhat a nuisance,â were the final words you caught as he muttered under his breath. Every version of Angstrom was a hindrance to this Markânonetheless, he suited up to leave. âIâll returnâand you will join me,â he said confidently, as if there was no argument to be made. You nodded absentmindedly and sighed. Just what had you done?
No Goggles Mark
âDudeâŠ! Youâre so coolâwhat is that? Iâve never seen any powers like that in my world,â he said with an amused expression as he snickered at your agony. You stared up at him, your heartbeat suddenly quickening when meeting his gaze. A look of recognition flickered within his eyes. âHey, I know you,â he said, his feet touching base on the ground as he approached you with a widening grin. âIâm not sure you know me exactlyâŠâ you replied, backing away as your eyes searched for a route to escapeâhis friendliness had truly taken you aback.
âWho do you work for?â he asked, words flying from his mouth without a care as he approached closer. âYou're way stronger than the Guardians of the Globe dudes I fought.â He fought who?! A sense of dread filled you as a new series of questions plagued your mind. If this one could ruin the team to filthâthen just how strong was he, and what exactly did he want? âI don't want to fight you, man,â you somewhat pleaded; he frowned with disapproval. âFight? No, man⊠but it seems like youâre in trouble, dude.â The topic switched againâhis gaze now behind youâas a flurry of aliens attempting their takeover waltzed through a portal. You didnât have the heart to tell them it was a failed crusade before it began.
Taking a stride forward, a strong arm suddenly wrapped around your waist as you two were propelled to a lone-standing structure where steel beams and concrete floors remained. âPut me down,â you bruised him as you backhanded him into the metal beam. While he had a smile on his face, momentary irritation settled across his features. The painful sting ran to his cock. âAw, what's the matter?â he asked, standing to his feet as you both came face to face once more.
âIt would be hot, but I don't want to fight, dude. Iâve missed you. I promise Iâll be gentle⊠at first.â The delivery was more seductiveâdropping an octaveâas he approached you, hands outstretched and finding purchase against your hips. One thing other variants wouldnât admitâwas the supple touch of the right woman could caress their soul.
âIâm not the me you want,â you replied. âYou can just be the one I have anyway,â he said. He was indeed seriousâand while less terrifying than the other Marks youâd encountered, his strength was menacing nonetheless. âThen letâs see what other talents youâve got.â Your response made his expression brighten with a new goal in mind. At that, the grin on his face widened as he leaned down and captured your lips in a fierce, dominant kiss.
His tongue forced its way into your mouth, battling yours for dominance as he ground his hips against yours. You two stumbled around the enclosureâfootsteps echoing in the empty building. Markâs hands cupped your ass, squeezing roughly as he whispered crude compliments into your ear. "Nice ass," he growled appreciatively, his fingers caressing the soft flesh. He couldnât articulate it wellâbut you were truly beautiful in every universeâand he couldnât wait to have his share.
Your fingers traveled up his muscled back as body heat pooled across your fingertips. Eagerness unlike any other began to rise as you longed to touch every inch of him. Hero costumes were peeled from one another, and you found his groping becoming progressively obsessive. His hardened cock stood awaiting stimulation as he bit back his urgesâsacrificing the time to feel you once more.
Guiding him to the floor, you seated yourself against his lapâyour legs hooked over his forearms. He was always too quick to finish battles, and that even applied to sex. Just the tip. That's what you two agreed upon. Sinking onto his cockâits girth filled you deliciously. The wet sound of arousal followed by his restrained groans filled you with delight; it was amusing to see a Viltrumite struggle to contain himself.
1⊠2⊠3⊠4⊠5⊠and 6! On every sixth shallow thrust, you would contract your musclesâgripping his dick like a vice as every vein received a kiss from the gods inside your cunt. It had him crazedâwanting more of your warmth than you were willing to give. âFâfuck, babe, youâre killinâ me,â he hissed with an unforeseen weariness shaking his voice. âCan I?â he started. âNo.â His expression hardened at your words. âYouâre ruining theââ Before he could finish, he inhaled sharply as his head fell back. âAm IâŠ?â you asked with feigned curiosity. It was undulating in a rhythm that drove him wild. He groaned beneath youâhis hands digging into his palms as he fought his urges to misbehave.
The sound of your ass slapping against his pelvis filled the airâmingling with your moans and cries of pleasure. Anything would be worth trading; he could watch his dick disappear within your cunt nonstop. His impending release redoubled his effortsâpounding into you with a ferocity that sent you hurtling over the edge.
The excitement overwhelmed him as he sheathed half his cock insideâthe spreading warmth and moisture making his thighs quiver beneath you. His balls tightened, painfully soâthat alone ripped a pornographic moan from him. If he could fuck you as desired, he wouldnât be nearly as needy. Your combined moans echoed through the infrastructureâand you were certain that with the windows gone, someone could hearâbut the thought was out of sight and out of mind. Pre-cum beaded down his length as it was smeared each time he entered your warmth. âM-MarkâŠâ you muttered; he nodded fervently behind you as his jaw locked.
âY-You ready for it, babe?" he asked with a faltering grin as sweat tickled his brows. Leaning your full body weight against himâyou felt your orgasm building quickly. The pleasure reached new heights as you both milked each other dry for the sake of proving a point. Your body instinctively began to lurch forward as your orgasm washed over you like a tidal wave. The tip of his cock was bedecked with a foam ring of cum. Mark wouldâve begun convulsing had it not been for him carrying youâinstead, his body stiffened as he let out a tight-lipped groan. You couldâve sworn you saw his toes curl tooâbut who knows? His pale skin was flushed a hue of red as his body thrummed with an aftershock.
Once youâd come down from your high, a satisfied grin beamed at you. "Dude, that was incredible," he murmured, a satisfied grin on his face. "We should do this again sometime," he saidâas if this was some casual fling, not that you would mind.
Before you could respond, a message in his ear interrupted the conversation. âUgh⊠this always happens; I have fun, and thenâdudeâŠâ he sounded exasperated as he hurriedly redressedâreluctantly wishing you a botched farewell. âI like you. Youâre coming with me.â
Feel free to request more lmao

request: i cannot stop thinking about asking steve if he ever got himself off to you before you got together. heâd be so blushy and sheepish about it but man itâd be fun to watch him squirm đ€€
2.1k words, established relationship, masturbation (steve), gn!reader, MDNI this entire blog is 18+

Itâs a universally awkward experience to have a sex-scene come on in a movie. Unless oneâs watching it alone, of course.
You are not. Cuddled in behind you, cushioning you against his chest, Steve lounges, his eyes fixed on the screen.
Sure, in terms of awkwardness-rankings, watching this with your boyfriend who you also have sex with isnât as bad as, like, watching with parents.
But still. You kinda canât tell if you should be watching or averting your eyes â and you donât want to peek over your shoulder to figure out what Steveâs doing.
The man in the film grunts, his hand in his pants jerking furiously, his eyes fixed on a polaroid of the filmâs love interest.
You squintâsurely this is stretching the truth a bit?
Yeah, yeah, guys jerk off, you know that - this isnât your first day on earth.
You just didnât think it would be like, romantic style. People in movies kiss in the rain and run through airports, so theyâre hardly known for being grounded in reality.
The man in the film groans lewdly and you feel Steve shift slightly behind you, his fingers looped around your middle twitching.
Did he-? When you-? You suppose youâve never really thought about it.
Youâre asking before you can second guess yourself.
âDid you do this?â
Steveâs attention switches idly from the screen to you as you crane your neck to look back at him. His brows pinch together.
âDid I do what?â He asks, doting brown eyes searching your face.
You fluster a bit. This is certainly moving you up through the awkwardness rankings. But now itâs in your head ânow youâve said it â you canât turn back.
The thought of it blazes hotly through your mind.
Steve, all those months ago, still just crushing on you, but never quite making a move. Heâd told you, whispered his secret, when youâd finally gotten the nerve to ask him to be your boyfriend officially, that heâd been sweet on you far longer than you knew.
But the image of it is what has you interested. You imagine Steve, his fist stuffed into his tight jeans, working himself over and biting his fist to hide his moans, at the mere thought of you.
Youâd had plenty of long, late night conversations on the phone before officially getting together.
The thought of if heâd ever touched himself while you talked, none the wiser on the other end, wanders into your mind â and your stomach clenches hotly at the thought.
Clearing your throat, you tip your head towards the screen.
âLike, before we got together?â
It takes Steve another glance at the screen to realise what youâre asking. A simmering, pink colour crawls up his neck and in a moment, you go from feeling awkward to feeling downright devious.
Steve clears his throat, his eyes darting rapidly back and forth from the screen to your face. âUh, I- I mean, why do you ask?â
A coy smile curls at your mouth. âI wanna know how accurate it is.â
Steve stares down at you, the pink now creeping up his cheeks and to the tips of his ears. God, he looks delectable like this.
Is this how he looked when he did it too? Blushy and embarrassed to commit such a filthy act thinking of someone that wasnât his? A hot buzz drizzles through your core, fringed with endearment.
Steve licks his lips nervously. His hands on your stomach stiffen and then relax. The film plays on in the background. His expression shifts towards something sheepish.
âItâs â I, uh, well, yes.â He stammers. âItâs accurate, yes.â
âHow many times?â
Steveâs eyes narrow, but his face gets redder. âWhat is this, an interrogation now?â
You giggle, drinking in his evidently embarrassed state. The confirmation of him doing it solidifies the perfect image of him in your mind, your own film-scene imagining Steve in the same position as the character on screen. In real life, Steve moves his hand to tug at the collar of his shirt.
âIâm just⊠enjoying the idea of it.â You muse.
âUh huh,â Steve says, tongue jammed into the side of his cheek. âNot justââ He fumbles for his words. âJust enjoying seeing me, I donât know, likeââ
His words trail off and his head tips back with a groan, exposing the delicious expanse of his throat. It begs you for kisses and love bites. He moves both hands up to cover his face.
You wait til he pulls them away to nod. âAbsolutely, baby. Watching you squirm is far more interesting than this film.â
In the background, the man on screen gives a pornographic shout as he finishes in his pants. Steve manages to turn redder, even if he keeps his eyes fixed on you.
âBut Iâm just,â You huff and pout. âPut out, I guess. You did all that for me and I didnât even get to see it.â
At the exact same time, you watch as Steveâs pupils dilate, blowing out in obvious lust, and something pressed against your back thickens up.
Steve, to his credit, only makes one strained noise which he immediately smothers with a cough. You feel his hips twitch beneath you and make a quick decision, confidence built on the sweltering heat of Steveâs face.
You push forward and up, then quickly turn, slotting your knees across either side of Steveâs thighs, perching atop them nicely.
Youâre not outright in his lapâthereâs room between the two of you for what you hope will happen.
It takes Steve another long moment to catch your drift.
âWait, you want-?â He inhales sharply. You can see the twitch of his cock through his loose sweatpants. âTo see?â
âTo watch,â You clarify, smiling almost mischievously. âYeah.â
Then just to check, âIs that okay?â
Steveâs breath shudders out of him but heâs nodding before the question is completely out of your mouth.
âH-Here?â He checks. You nod, resting your hands atop your thighs to show you donât plan on using them. Steveâs hungry eyes scan you up and down, the tent in his pants pitching up in arousal.
âJust show me how you did it,â You murmur, words on the side of sultry. Your own excitement, that faint thrum of pleasure, has already started to pool low in your gut.
âYeah, but I normally donât have an audience for it,â Steve mumbles, his left-hand reaching for the drawstrings of his sweats.
They come undone with a simple tug. Steve stretches the elastic out a bit and then slips his hand in.
You know the moment his large hand settles around his cock from the flutter of his lashes, the soft groan that curls out his throat, rough and sweet all at once.
This⊠This is new. You usually donât get such a focused look at Steveâs pleasure, at the little shifts in his expression, too wrapped up in your own pleasure to pay proper attention. Getting this much detail sends a delicious throb between your thighs. You hardly want to blink.
Steveâs hand moves slow to begin with, slow, gentle strokes to get himself properly warmed up.
After a moment, he draws his hand back and some part of you worries heâs too weirded out now. But he only brings it up, to his mouth, and you realise what heâs doing.
Quickly stealing his hand, Steveâs eyes widen as you let spit drop from your lips and pool in his palm. Another soft, jagged noise drags from his throat.
âJesus Christ,â He murmurs, more to himself. âThis is not what itâs like when itâs just me, this is, like, ten fucking times hotter.â
His hand sneaks back into his sweatpants but this time when he grips his cock, the reaction this time is immediate.
Steve moans, louder this time, his eyes crushing closed and his hand starts moving faster. With the help of your spit, it doesnât take long before you can hear it, the slick sounds of him fucking his cock desperately.
His head tips back against the couch and a piece of hair flops over, into his eyes.
You reach out and brush it to the side and Steveâs eyes crease open at the same time a whine threads through his moans.
âFuck,â He grunts. He sinks in teeth into his bottom lip, his eyes desperately roaming your face. âFuck, baby, youâre so pretty.â
âThat what you thought bout?â
Youâre impressed with yourself for the cool, calm demeanour youâre portraying. Steve nods, the motion a little wild, his hand still making those lewd, wet noises.
âUh huh,â His voice shakes a little. âJust, fuck, dunno, like, your face and-uh-what y-youâd sound like.â
Your eyes glitter with interest, ego raring at the devotion your boyfriend is spilling out.
âWhat Iâd sound like?â
âY-Yeah,â Steve stammers, his breathing heavy. âLike, doing this.â
Now thatâs a picture; Steve jerking off to the thought of you, hot and bothered with your hand between your thighs. You give a breathy gasp without meaning to.
Steve hears it, groaning louder as he quickens his pace. You sort of want to reach forward and ruck up his shirt, so you can see the glorious clench of his stomach as he rolls his hips up into his warm hand.
âCan I see more?â You ask tentatively. âPlease?â
This time, itâs more like a whimper that creeps out of Steveâs throat.
âOh my god,â Steve mumbles through a stilted moan. âJesus Christ. Yeah, yeah, of course.â
He swallows heavily, his free hand reaching down to push at his waistband. You help, lifting up to help tug the fabric out of the way.
Obstructions removed, your mouth salivates. Steveâs cock is pretty â and it looks that much more enticing when itâs worked up, pink and the tip of it leaking all over his hand.
Steveâs a fucking vision. His head still lolled back, his adamâs apple bobbing as he swallows. His throat, dotted with moles, crawling with pinkness. His big, veiny hand wrapped around his cock, pumping it steadily.
You think about how much youâd like the lick the trail of hair on his tummy, down, down, down.
âYou seem close,â You say and it earns you a reedy whimper in response. âIs it- does it normally happen this fast?â
âAre you kidding me?â Steve whispers back. His eyes are closed and after a moment, you realise heâs trying to keep himself from cumming too quickly, even as his hand doesnât slow. âIânghâ n-normally donât have such good, ah, material. My imagination isâ is not this good.â
Youâre equal parts flattered and flustered, heat twinging in your gut.
âCanâ can I?â Steve whimpers out suddenly.
The question nearly throws you. You almost say Can you what? when the meaning of it douses you in fire.
Heâs asking permission.
Oh, that does something to you.
âYeah, Stevie,â You say, voice lilting closer to a coo. âI wanna see it, please.â
Something shifts in his motions, changing gear as Steveâs hand suddenly starts moving in smaller, tighter strokes, just over the head of his cock. His head tucks forward, his eyes scrunched closed, and heâs whimpers out, âthank you, thank you, thank you.â
It only takes a few seconds, the whine in Steveâs voice pitching higher and higher, until something gives.
His hips take over, something desperate and primal shoving them up, his thrusts rapid and frantic. His hand doesnât stop moving, not even as his cock starts to leak out ropes of cum, shooting out enough to cover the back of his knuckles. It joins your spit to rub slick against his cock.
He keens pitifully. For one long minute, you listen to Steveâs breathy whines get softer and softer, watch his desperate thrusts abate til an overstimulated shiver wracks through his body. Then, and only then, does he collapse back, sinking into the couch.
Heâs a bit ruined, truthfully.
And youâve soaked through your panties.
âYouâre welcome,â You croak, throat dry. His hair is back in his eyes and lean forward, tenderly brushing it out of the way. You leave your hand there, cupping the side of his face, and Steve leans into it, still panting.
âWhat?â He asks.
âYou were thanking me,â You point out cheekily.
Steveâs face plunges back to that scarlet colour youâre beginning to adore most ardently. He turns his face further to hide away in the palm of your hands.
âShut up,â He mumbles.
âSo you donât wanna do that again?â You tease.
Steve pulls back and eyes you. âNow, hang on, I didnât say thatâŠâ

For Cryinâ Out Loud



pairing: post-outbreak! joel miller x fem!reader
how to help the palestinians and what it means to write for the last of us characters
word count: 7.9k
description: living with joel is complicated, especially when you canât sleep due to nightmares. when you find yourself in his bed, you canât help yourself. but joel sure can. give him a day to mull it over.
warnings: pretty slow burn, kinda forced proximity, kinda angsty, unspecified age gap (donât like it, donât read it), joel gives you tons of nicknames (darlinâ, kiddo, etc.), discussions of nightmares and possible mental illnesses, some fluff, reader isnât really described, joel is kinda a gaslighter, heâs also a bit pervy, unprotected p in v (wrap it yâall), oral (f! receiving), dirty talk, joel like worships you!!!!!, joel licks his fingers clean, giving genitalia pronouns, joelâs a big boy. think thatâs it. lemme know what I missed!
authorâs note: I really enjoyed writing this. the idea is pretty simple but I love domestic jackson!joel. I promise iâll try to switch it up soon and write something that isnât jackson!era lol. support your fav fics by reblogging and commenting!! thanks love ya <3
For some reason, you always find yourself standing at the threshold of the front door when you cannot sleep.Â
The air was especially brisk tonight. You wrapped yourself in a gray chunky sweater you found in the lost and found in Jacksonâs thrift store, hoping to regain some warmth. Your bed may have been comfortable, but it was the place where nightmares usually plagued you.Â
It was too late to be awake, and you knew that if you were caught, you would hear it from Joel. He always reprimanded you. Every time he caught you up late, it was like your father woke up and found your hand in the cookie jar.Â
The dynamic between you two had changed since arriving in Jackson, and you almost resented him for it. When it was just you, him, and Ellie, you were managing a family unit. Joel was always the protective father, you being the mom or the voice of reason, and Ellie being chaos.Â
When Ellie and Joelâs relationship shifted, he took on a fatherly role for you. It bothered you. A lot.Â
In a moment of contemplation, you hear footsteps coming down the steps behind you.Â
Heâs wearing flannel pajama pants and no shirt, his hairy tummy something you did not see often.Â
âWhat are you doing awake?â He questions, his voice groggy with a twinge of annoyance.Â
You do not feel like explaining yourself, but you knew you wouldnât be able to get out of this situation without a justification.Â
You huff, leaning your back against the door frame so you can get a full look at the broad man. âCanât sleep. Thought staring into the darkness would help.â
He grunts, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. âHowâs that workinâ for you, sweetheart?â
You could not close your eyes without the haunting dreams that seemed lively and so real. Every night, you had the same recurring ones. You were being chased, hunted, or murdered. Or all of the above. You would wake in a cold sweat, not wanting to shut your eyelids ever again.Â
âHm,â You say, staring back outside for a brief moment, ââWas better when you werenât looking over my shoulder.â
He chuckles, âGet back to bed.â
âI canât, Joel.â
âYou can and will. Youâre no good when youâre tired.â
âIf I close my eyes, Joel, I will just have the same goddamn nightmares I have every night. And I will end up doing what Iâm doing now, which is trying to get some fresh air to forget them.â
âYouâre not gonna forget âem with some fresh air. You just need to⊠get over them.â
The breeze picks up as soon as he says it, almost like the world knew the tension would have to be broken with some frigid air. You retort with, âAnd how do you get over yours?â
"I just accept them," he says, a hint of defensiveness in his tone. "I don't have time to dwell on them. There's always more important things to worry about."
"I'm more tired in the morning when I just endure them." You explain, trying not to cry about it. But you are so sick of them. The same thing every night.
âI get it. One day they will subside, Iâm sure of it. But for now, you gotta-â
You just want him to shut up. At the same time, your mind is trying to remember the last time you did not have a nightmare. The memory makes your stomach churn. âYou remember that one time we were forced to share that sleeping bag? Back in Pittsburgh?â
âYeah,â His tone was wary, âWhat about it?â
"That was the first night I didn't have it." You explain, your voice a bit shaking at the insinuation. You donât want to face the fact that Joel, the man that you have known for going on 10 years, kept your nightmares at bay. The same man who continuously rejected you and told you that he was old enough to be your dad. The same man that told you no, I donât like you like that. I never will. That Joel.Â
âAnd? Why are you bringing this up now?â
"Because every night I go to my bed and I'm forced to face them alone. When you were there... they didn't even bother holding my mind hostage.â
He took another step closer, closing some of the distance between you two. He towers over you and you canât help but stare up at him in awe. Joel has always been a complicated part of your life. You consider him your sexual awakening, honestly, but he will never ever know that. Over the years, heâs only gotten more handsome.Â
But now, he has a curious expression written all over his face.
"Are you saying you want to share a bed with me?" he asks, his voice gruff and low.
You suck in a deep breath, not wanting to answer. You knew that was stepping over a boundary for Joel. He liked his space. He didnât like you impeding on that space, especially. Your bedroom was the furthest away from his for a reason.
"I don't know." You manage to say.
Joel's gaze darkened, his expression was completely unreadable. You wish you could read his mind, but you should be grateful you can not.Â
Because in Joelâs mind, heâs trying to formulate a way to convince you to stay away from him altogether. The wall he has built over the last decade was intentional. He did not want to hurt you any further. He already knew you had feelings for him, but he was an old man. He did not want to drag you into his mess, all the baggage he carried. He looked after you, he shared a home with you, and thatâs it. Strictly platonic.Â
He shifted on his feet a little, unable to tear his eyes away from you. You shook like a little leaf.
"You don't know?" he repeated, his voice a low rumble.
You nod, "I don't know if I want that."
You do want that. But you want more, too. You knew you would be playing with fire. You would just be disappointed.Â
Joelâs temptations are buried deep but they still fester every now and again. Some days he would catch a glance at you getting dressed in the crack of your door and have to take a cold shower. As soon as he felt those emotions bubble in his chest, he would try to distract himself. Maybe he would take a longer patrol. Maybe he would go to the Tipsy Bison and try to find a woman to take home. That one never really worked.Â
âWell, what do you want then? Because standinâ at the door and letting all the cold air in ainât gonna work for me or you.â
You look down at your picked-over fingernails and contemplate your next sentence. You don't want to be heartbroken in the morning when you wake up and he's there sleeping peacefully next to you and you're not... his.
"I want to sleep with you."
Joel was not expecting such a blunt response from you, but he appreciated you not beating around the bush about it. He gestures for you to step out of the doorway so he can shut the door, which you do.Â
He looked down at you, his eyes raking over your face, taking in the exhaustion and uncertainty.Â
"You sure?" he asked, his voice a gruff whisper.
You just nod as he locks the front door. You couldnât believe you were doing this.Â
Joel couldnât believe it either. Maybe it was the tiredness or the instincts he felt to protect you, but he was not mad at the idea of sharing his bed with you.Â
You signal for him to go upstairs, âYou lead the way.â
-
Joelâs room was always off-limits to you. So when you step into his small little world, you take it all in.Â
The artwork around the room was mainly nature landscapes. He had a big dresser right at the room's entrance with picture frames of Sarah, Ellie, and other family members. You were even included in one photoâa picture of you and him on some horses from last year.Â
A shirt littered one side of the bed, so you took that as it was probably his side. Unfortunately for you, it was the right side. You felt a pang of guilt realizing you would probably end up restlessly lying in Joelâs bed if you were stuck on the left.Â
Before he can pull back the blanket for himself, you stop him.Â
âUh, can I sleep on that side?â
He completely halts in his motions, turning his head towards you with a blank expression. âMy side? Why?â
You lick your lips, already regretting this whole thing.Â
âBecause I have had this superstition since I was a kid that I could only sleep on the right side of the bed."
Joel wants to laugh, but he doesnât. He can tell you are at war in your head about the question, your expression practically anticipating his rejection.Â
"Superstitions, huh?" he said, a hint of a smirk playing on his lips."You and your weird beliefs."
You watch as he crosses to the other side of the bed and lifts the blanket. Is he actually letting you have his side? Maybe he doesnât hate you.Â
âYou could also call it a compulsion, but superstitions seem more fun and less like a mental illness.â
He laughs this time, his deep chuckle making you feel a bit more relaxed about the situation. You did not feel like a burden as much. You walk to the right side and pull back his navy blue sheets and blanket. The spot looks warm and inviting so when you crawl in next to Joel, you start to realize that youâre back in the same situation you were in years ago in that sleeping bag. He was so close and warm and you wanted nothing more but for him to hold you and keep you comfortable.
But then another thing came to mind before you could imagine his arms around you.Â
You usually sleep on your right side or back, but now you don't know what to do because you didn't know how Joel slept.
"Do you sleep on your side or back?"
Joel studies you as you fidget beside him, your uncertainty causing him to smirk slightly. It was almost endearing, seeing you be completely out of control of your surroundings. He remembers back when you were traveling with him you had an obsessive need to straighten up everything before you fell asleep. You had to roll yourself up in your sleeping bag the same way every night.Â
"Usually on my back," he said finally. "But I can sleep on my side, too."
You swallow, trying to picture yourself sleeping. For some reason you felt the urge to have control of the situation, dictating exactly how he has to sleep, too. "Can I... I'll sleep on my side if you can sleep on your back? Is that okay?"
Joel had to suppress a smirk at your request. You knew he was trying to hold back a snarky remark. Instead, he surprises you.
"Sure, you can sleep on your side," he agreed, shifting his body weight onto his back, "ân I'll sleep on my back. No big deal."
You turn to face him, tucking the pillow further under your head. You can tell his eyes are heavy from exhaustion. You know it's time to shut up, to go to sleep, but you feel the need to say something else to him. Sometimes your brain concocts questions and statements and you know you shouldnât say them, but your mouth betrays you. Â
"When was the last time you had a girl in your bed?"
Why the fuck would you ask that? You think to yourself. It fell out of your mouth like drool.
Joel's eyes widened at your blunt question, surprise and a hint of embarrassment coloring his expression. You knew he was probably just expecting you to lay here next to him, maybe roll around a bit, then sleep. But instead, itâs an interrogation.
He took a deep breath, his mind rattling around as he tried to think of a response. He didn't want to admit what his genuine answer was to you, but he too could not help himself.
"Why do you want to know that?" he asks, his voice steely.
You hate that he even responded because now you needed to defend yourself.
"I uh, don't know. I don't know why it matters."
Joel chuckled softly, noting that you probably just had a case of word vomit. You always told him you were infamous for putting your foot in your mouth, especially in awkward situations.
"Curiosity got the better of you, huh?" he asks, rubbing his face with his hands. âYou just canât help yourself, sweetheart.â
He shifted slightly, rolling onto his side to face you, his gaze studying your expression.
You smirk, grateful that he's letting it slide. When he turns onto his side and he's at eye level with you, your face drops a bit. He is ruining the vision in your head. Heâs throwing a wrench in your plans.
"You're supposed to be on your back, sir."
Joel couldn't help but chuckle softly at your comment. He knew he was supposed to be on his back, but the new angle allowed him to see you better in the faint moonlight.
"Don't worry," he said, a hint of humor in his voice. "I'll turn back over in a minute. Just... enjoying the view for a bit."
You roll your eyes, lifting your hands from under the covers and lightly hitting his arm. You knew he was just fucking with you now.Â
"Okay, for that, I want to know the answer to my stupid question."
Joel let out a low laugh, the sound rumbling deep in his chest. He shook his head, amused by your persistence. You start to think about it and you have never really seen him bring anyone home. Maybe it had been a very long time and he was embarrassed.Â
"Alright, alright," he said, a hint of resignation in his voice. "Last time I had a girl in my bed..."
He paused for a moment, his eyes dropping to the covers, his mind racing to find the right words.
"Go on..."
Joel took another deep breath, his voice dropping even lower as he spoke.
"It's been a long time, kiddo," he admitted, his voice pierced with a bit of shame. "Almost ten years, if I'm being honest."
Your eyes widen in surprise. "No way... You've never just... got it on with someone in bed?"
Joel's face flushed with embarrassment at your blunt question, a mix of shock and slight irritation flashing across his eyes.
"Jesus, you really don't hold back, do ya?" he muttered. He shifts a bit, trying to get comfortable in a different way. He hadn't expected the conversation to turn so personal, so quickly and he did not want to face you anymore. He was mortified.Â
You mentally slap yourself in the face.
"I'm sorry, I am just tired and delusional. Uh, you don't have to answer that."
Joel could practically feel the humiliation radiating off you and he too felt the exact same way. You knew how to add to an already awkward situation.
"No, no, it's fine," he reassured you, his voice a bit gentler now. "I get it. You're tired, and your filter has taken a backseat."
"Yeah, exactly..."
He shifted on the bed, turning onto his back again, his gaze shifting to the ceiling, avoiding your curious stare.
You could not help but stare at his side profile. A prominent straight nose. His downturned lips are surrounded by some fine lines that show his age. He was a beautiful man now, but you canât help but imagine him back in his 20s. He had to have been a hit with the ladies back then.
Joel could feel your gaze on him, studying his face. And while you were not scrutinizing him, he felt like a commodity in a museum or something. He forced himself to keep his gaze on the ceiling, refusing to meet your eyes.
"So⊠ten years and no sex?â
You could seriously, not help yourself.
"Correct.â He grumbles, still not meeting your stare.
"Damn, Joel." You mutter, adjusting a bit to sit up a little more on your pillow. "I seriously thought you were sleeping around the whole time we have been in Jackson.â
He finally turns your way, a bit of offense on his face. âWhy would you think that?â
You shrug, not wanting to insult him. But thatâs how you formulated your grudge towards him. It was easy to just chalk everything up to problems with random women you have seen around town.Â
âYou just give off the energyâŠâ
âWhat?â
You huff, laying back on the pillow. âI donât know, Joel! I feel like when Iâm around you all the ladies think youâre handsome. They stare.â
âThey are staring because youâre always following me around and we arenât married or⊠together. They think we are odd.âÂ
You had never heard such things around Jackson, but it does sort of make sense. Everyone was probably just confused because you two lived together but were not a couple. You can admit it is bizarre, but it just did not feel like an option any other way, in your mind. So Tommy gave you two a bigger house and you set up separate rooms.Â
But in actuality, Joel secretly told Tommy that he did not want you too far from him. So when Tommy couldnât give you any other houses nearby, Joel just told him that you two would be roommates.
âWell fuck âem.â You mutter, trying not to sound too offended by the thought of people gossiping about you two.
Joel just nods. You settle by tucking your arm under your pillow. You yawn, the exhaustion now taking over your body. You watch Joel grab a pair of reading glasses from the side table and a book. You decide not to bother him, especially because he probably wanted to just read himself to sleep instead of being interrogated by you any further.
You close your eyes and eventually fall asleep. The deeper you get, Joel notices how your breathing pattern changes. When heâs finally ready to get some shut-eye as well, he watches as your body crawls closer to him. Your arm swings over his stomach and rests on his forearm. He is so shocked he does not move a muscle.Â
You adjust some more, not knowing what you are doing. Your leg creeps up and tucks right between his. You snuggle your face right into his chest. The only movement Joel decides to make is slinging his arm over your shoulders to pull you in tighter.Â
Itâs the first time in years that you two slept soundly, with no interruptions. No nightmares, no sudden intrusions, nothing. Silence and snores fill the room and thatâs it.
-
When you wake up, itâs slow and gradual. Your brain hardly computes that youâre laying on top of Joelâs shirtless frame, until your hand runs across his warm tummy.Â
You crook your neck up, looking at the handsome man you are spreading across.Â
His lips are slightly ajar, letting out hardly-there snores. They are so pretty and pink and you cannot help but touch them with feather-like fingertips. You would feel so guilty waking him up-
His eyes slowly open taking notice of your actions even though you tried not to stir him. Your eyes fly open in shock, but he does not seem very annoyed. He smiles.Â
âMorninâ darlinâ,â He says in a deep sleep-laced voice. You smile back at him, loving that he decided to call you the nickname you always got giddy over. You press your fingers into his chest before replying.
âI didnât have a nightmare.â
His hand comes up from your shoulders and tucks some hair behind your ear as he stares down at you, âThatâs good kiddo. Iâm glad you slept well.â
The intimacy is almost too much. The way this is how it would be if you woke up to Joel every morning. It sends your brain into overdrive and you force yourself to ruin it a bit.
âWoulda slept even better if you didnât talk so much in your sleep.â
Joel froze for a moment, his cheeks immediately flushing pink with embarrassment. He sits up a bit more, adjusting to the brighter lighting in his room. He knew he had a problem with talking in his sleep. Ellie used to talk about it all the time. He dreaded hearing what he was saying while curled up next to you.
"Uh... what did I say?" he asked, trying to maintain his composure.
"Something about it felt so good to be pressed up against someone, I don't know..."Â
You could not help yourself and started to laugh. You knew you were going to get a rise out of him.Â
Joel's face flushed an even deeper shade of pink as you started to laugh, clearly amused by your joke. He could feel his heart racing in his chest, his mind racing as he tried to come up with an excuse. He was just dreaming, it was not about you.Â
"W-what?" he spluttered out instead of making an excuse. "I didn't... I didn't say anything like that."
You have a shit-eating grin on your face and you press your hands on his chest to prop yourself up. You enjoyed watching him squirm.
Joel's eyes flickered down to your hands on his chest. He sickly thought they felt so right placed there. He imagined what you would look like fully mounting him.Â
He tried to keep his expression neutral, but you could see through his stone-cold exterior.
"You're messing with me, aren't you?" he grumbled, a hint of suspicion in his voice.
"Fully fuckin' with you." You giggle, hoping he is not really that mad at you.Â
âYouâre a brat.â
You move your foot slightly, running it up his leg. It sends shockwaves up his body, having you so close and moving around so seamlessly.Â
"No, you said something about how beautiful, alluring, and incredible I am. Said I was the girl of your dreamsâŠ"
"Yeah, right," he said, a hint of playful sarcasm in his voice. "You expect me to believe that?"
"So, you don't believe me?"
"No, I don't believe you," he says, his voice stern but playful. "I think you're a dirty little liar, trying to play me for a fool."
"A dirty little liar, huh? Well, it's good to know that you don't think I'm beautiful, alluring, and incredible." You giggle at his acknowledgment, knowing he caught you red-handed.
"Oh, I never said that," he smirked, a hint of teasing in his voice. "You are all of those things, darlinâ. But you're also a dirty little liar who likes to play games."
"So you think I'm beautiful?" You crack, the biggest smile painted on your face. You donât even care that heâs calling you a liar because it does not matter. Joel thinks you are beautiful.Â
ââCourse I do.â
You push yourself up onto your butt, sitting crisscross next to him. He secretly wishes you were still curled up on top of him.Â
âYou always this nice in the morning?â You ponder, your fingertips starting to toy with the hair on his stomach. He tries not to pay mind to it, letting you have full access to touch him.Â
But itâs driving him insane. The way you look freshly woken up, completely enamored with the idea of him calling you beautiful. You have some puffiness under your eyes and your lips are more swollen than usual.
âI am always nice to you.â
You let out a scoff, âNo, youâre not.â
He notices the shift in your tone and starts to get defensive, âNow youâre just lyinâ.âÂ
Joel always loved to gaslight you in these situations. You knew better than to let him get away with it, especially now. âNo there was that one time you told me you did not like me and that you would never like me. How you are old enough to be my dad-â
âBecause I am!â
And thereâs the wall. The only constant in you twoâs relationship. He was so good at throwing it up when feelings were being expressed. When vulnerability was presented, Joel could not help but reject it.Â
âAnd the worldâs fuckinâ ended, Joel! Big deal!â You almost yell, moving your hands from him.Â
Why does he already miss your hands?
He huffs, crossing his arms over his soft chest. âWe have had this conversation for the last 10 years.âM not sure why we keep rehashing it.â
âAnd every time you turn me down itâs another fuckinâ stab in the heart.â
âYou know why we canât,â He practically growls. You can not stand to even look at him anymore with your bitterness and irritation taking over.Â
âWhatever, Joel.âÂ
As soon as you say it, youâre already leaving his room and heading to your own. When you slam the door, you hope you have made your point. You want to scream and punch a hole in the wall, but instead you just furiously stomp around the room and grab your clothes. You had patrol at noon, so you needed to get to the mess hall before breakfast was over. You try not to cry as you strip down and get dressed.
Joel sits in bed, reeling. He hates that it has become a conversation every six months. He hated that rejecting you always sent you into a spiral of hating him for extended periods. Itâs not that he did not want you, it was simply just not in the cards. He was too old to be in love. He was too old to play house with you. He just could not submit to the idea of leading you on, especially because you had so much more life to live.Â
He finally works up the courage to get out of bed and put on some clothes. He opts for putting on his typical jeans and thick flannel. It was getting colder and he knew by the end of the winter, you would end up with half his flannels anyway, so he had to enjoy them while he had them.Â
You storm downstairs, going to the back door for your boots when you spot him in the kitchen.Â
âYou got pat-â
âYes.â You respond quickly, shoving your foot into your shoes. He stands behind you with a mug full of tea, watching your every move.Â
âWho are you-â
âJesse.â
He was asking his usual questions, which you were not in the mood to answer.Â
âHey, can you-â
You snap your head back at him, giving him the glare you gave him as a warning usually. By now, he takes it as a hint and backs off. But not this time.Â
âCan I what?â
He rolls his eyes, âCan you fuckinâ not be a brat about this?â
You wish your glare came with knives. If that were the case, Joel Miller would be dead on his kitchen floor.Â
You are so thrown off by the question that you just watch him get angrier when you do not respond.Â
âAre you serious, right now?â You press, keeping your voice from cracking.Â
He brings the mug up to his mouth, taking an obnoxious sip. When he pulls the mug away, you notice how steaming it is. âYou always pull this shit-â
âNo, you do! You do this shit to me every fuckinâ time, Joel. You sweet talk me, make me feel comfortable, have me lapping everything up in the palm of your hands, and then you snatch it away. Then have the audacity to get mad at me!â
You are yelling now and it is throwing him off. Joel knows better than to interrupt you like you do to him. You were the kind of person who would calm down if you felt heard.Â
The way he knew you down to your core made this all so painful. Because if he was not so stubborn and true to his convictions, he would have fucked you the moment you touched his lips this morning.Â
âI ainât tryinâ to make this harder than-â âToo fuckinâ late.â
You think back to the moment last night when you knew you were going to hurt your own feelings by sleeping with him. You knew better, yet here you are, still blaming him for your stupidity.
He stands there, still holding his mug, staring you down like a wounded doe who got pierced with an arrow. He feels guilty like he misled you. Before he can say anything, you are lacing up your boots and leaving out the front door without another word.Â
-
All day long, Joel wanders around the house trying to get rid of the pit in his stomach. Nothing works. A shower. Reading a book. Cutting wood. As soon as he tried to use laundry as a distraction, he reached into his hamper and found one of your t-shirts. He held it close and smelled it, trying to wrap his head around how he got here.Â
You spend all day, silently fuming on horseback with Jesse. When he tries to get you to open up, you ice him out and tell him to focus on the trail in front of him.Â
You get back by sundown, the sun setting making it a lot chiller than you expected. You decide to take the long way home, wanting to avoid being home for as long as possible. You were not ready to face Joel, let alone share a space with him. But unfortunately, during your patrol, you fell into some mud and needed a shower. The more time it spent on your clothes and body, the grosser you felt.Â
You open the front door, announcing that you are home. It was a habit you and Joel developed after you both pulled guns on each other during late-night arrivals.Â
You hear Joel mumble something from the living room, but you do not stop to listen and continue on your way upstairs to the bathroom.Â
You strip down as soon as the door is closed, tossing your muddy clothing into a hamper in the corner. You would get them washed and hung as soon as you shower off.Â
You hear Joelâs footsteps creaking around the upstairs hallway as you scrub your body with homemade soap and warm water.Â
When you start to dry yourself off, you hear Joel grunting something in the hallway. You wrap yourself in a towel and peek your head out the door. Heâs on his hands and knees wiping something off the hardwood. âWhatâs goinâ on?â
He looks up at you, your body only covered in a bleach-stained blue towel. It makes his head spin. He canât even be mad that you tracked in mud.Â
He swallows, gripping the cloth heâs using tighter. âYou got mud everywhere.â
You step out, not even really thinking about the fact that you are not properly dressed in front of Joel. You were still mad at him, anyway. Who cares what he thinks?
âSorry, I couldâve cleaned it up.â
He returns to wiping the wood, âItâs fine, I got it, kiddo.â
You accept his response and move on to your room, but the draft you leave behind drifts to Joelâs nostrils. Your soap smells like lavender and it always sends his mind racing when you are fresh from a shower. He clears his throat, trying to get through the emotions filling his chest.Â
But itâs been like this all day. Youâre all around him even when youâre not physically here. How can he get away from you? Why is he trying to run in the first place?
Heâs on his knees in your hallway, cleaning up your mess, sniffing the air you leave behind because heâs fucking in love with you and he cannot help himself anymore.Â
Joel starts to think about how peaceful he felt having you next to him last night and how he would love to feel that way every night. For once heâs not thinking about what everyone else would think. For once heâs thinking selfishly and caving into every desire he has ever pondered about you. How would you feel under him? How would your lips feel pressed against his pulse point?Â
His body was on fire, thinking about you.Â
You are fiddling with some clothes in your dresser after you flick on the overhead light. You do not hear him come into your room behind you.Â
You are so wrapped up in your own thoughts that when he clears his throat to announce heâs in your room, you scream. Loud.Â
âFor cryinâ out loud, woman!âÂ
You grip your towel tighter when you turn and see him standing at your mercy.Â
âJoel, what the fuck?â You yell, gesturing to the fact that you are practically naked. He does not care, of course, and his ears are ringing from your piercing scream. He gathers himself as you shift back, trying to create some distance from him.
He is trying not to gawk at the fact that your grip on the towel against your chest is only pushing up your cleavage. Heâs biting back everything. âCan we talk?â
âTalk about what? The fact you crept into my room when I was trying to change? Are we past boundaries now?âÂ
You are pissed, trying not to rattle off another million things to discuss with him. Heâs only really talking about one thing.Â
He scoffs at your last statement. âBoundaries were already out the window when you crawled into bed with me last night.â
Silence fills the room as you completely stop breathing. The anger you originally felt dissipates.Â
âJoel-â
âI ainât doinâ this back and forth anymore,â He starts shifting in his spot, unsure if he really should be doing this. âI canât live how I've been livinâ. Somethinâs gotta give.â
You furrow your eyebrows, confused.Â
âYou are the one who wonât give, Joel.â
As soon as you say it, he practically drags himself over to you. Completely destitute. You have never seen him look so desperate before. You can tell that heâs been at war with himself ever since you left this morning. His eyes never lied.
His hand creeps up your bare arm, leaving goosebumps in his wake.Â
But then you remember his words from this morning. You start feeling like this is just a moment of weakness for him and that he will regret it later. You had to stop it before it was too late. You did not want to deal with the consequences.Â
âJoel, you said we canât-â
âFuck what I said,â He cuts you off, âDo you want this?â
You stare into those brown eyes, searching for a sign of hesitance. You cannot believe Joel is being this vulnerable with you.Â
But, you do want him. God, you have wanted him so badly for so long. You have searched for him in every man you have ever been with since knowing him.Â
Your mouth opens but nothing comes out. He takes note of your parted lips, every word failing you at that moment.
âDarlinâ-â
âYes,â You finally manage. âYes, I do want this.â
Itâs all he needs. He closes the gap between you two by wrapping his arms around your waist and pulling you into his space. His lips crash onto yours, not wasting another breath of air waiting to indulge in his sickest fantasies.Â
You are all Joel ever dreamed about. He knew that once he caved and physically gave in, his world would be shot and everything would revolve around you. For years it had been a teetering object on a cliff, one nudge would have him falling. He always managed. But now, he was falling head first.Â
His lips move so perfectly with your own. Your hand released your towel and found the tufts of his curls at the base of his head. You did not care that the article pooled around your feet, leaving you completely bare in front of Joel. You have wanted this all along. To be uncovered, to be stripped down to the rawest form. He broke the kiss briefly just to scan your naked body, his forehead pressed against your own.Â
âFuck, you are so beautiful.â
Your heart stutters as his hand traces your stomach down to your hips, all the way down to your ass. He stops there, grabbing a handful.Â
âI need you,â You choke out before pressing your lips to his over and over again. âRight now.â
He mumbles âjumpâ into your mouth and you do so, his hands working quickly to hike you up onto his waist. He carries you to your bed, wasting no time dropping you onto your back.Â
He cannot get enough of your soft, swollen lips. Every time he pulls away slightly, he dives in again even more aggressively than the last time.Â
You are so hypnotized by the way he feels on top of you. In the light, he seems so much broader than he was last night. Heâs still fully clothed, to your dismay. You start to tug at his shirt, motioning him to remove the articles that are in your way.Â
He throws off his shirt before he stands up at the edge of the bed and pushes down his jeans.Â
âJoel⊠I-â
He just shuts you up with another passionate kiss. Itâs all tongue and teeth like heâs trying to melt into your mouth. Your hands trail up his back, gripping onto his shoulders, holding him down so he is pressing against your nude body.Â
âGod, I have wanted this for so long,â He sputters, trying not to sound too desperate. âBeen wanting this.â
Thatâs when his hand reaches down between your thighs and gathers the wetness your slit has to offer. His fingers dance across it, starting from the top all the way to your spongy entrance.Â
âPlease, Joel.â
He loves the lust-laced tone you speak with when you say his name. It almost makes him cum there and then.Â
You watch as he makes his way down your body, peppering kisses from your shoulder to your hip. When he parts your legs, you feel quite exposed. The adrenaline of being so spread for him manifests into a moan.Â
âYou are divine, baby.â
The use of that adjective is so-not-Joel that it makes you giggle. He notes your reaction and decides to sink down into you. When his mouth gets close to your core, itâs no longer a laughing matter.Â
He uses his fingers again, using them to spread open your pussy lips. He cannot keep his eyes away from how dripping you are. âThis all for me?â
âY-yes, Joel.â
âGod, I was a fuckinâ fool for so long. Couldâve had her earlier and I never fuckinâ caved. Such an idiot.â
Him giving your cunt pronouns was enough to have you throwing your head back and shuttering. His touch was magnetic like he knew exactly what buttons to push as he rubbed his fingers and palm over your core.Â
âYeah, youâve been missinâ out. Every nightâŠâ You swallow before looking down at the man that is enamored with your pussy, âE-every night I would lay in this bed, fuckinâ myself just thinkinâ about you.â
He growls at the statement, before teasingly kissing your clit. âEvery night, hm, kiddo?â
âGod, yes.â
Your eyes squeeze shut as he leans forward more and dives in. His nose is pressed firmly against the top of your pussy, nudging forward every time his tongue enters your hole. When that motion became consistent, you began to note the rumblings in the pit of your stomach. A familiar build-up that you managed to get when you were playing with yourself.Â
His fingers move in tandem with his lips and tongue. While his middle and pointer finger slide in and out of you, his lips wrap around your clit. Itâs overwhelming and all-consuming.Â
You do not know where to center yourself, so your hands grip the bed sheets you were completely soaking as Joel pulls the first orgasm out of you.Â
âThatâs it, baby, sheâs cryinâ for me, hm?â
You hardly make a noise, the orgasm is so earth-shattering that you just writhe on the mattress.Â
âOh my godâŠâ You groan, finally able to catch your breath. When Joel removes his fingers from you, you watch as he slowly brings them up to his lips.
When he inserts them in his mouth, you gawk at him, unsure how to react. He watches your expression and chuckles darkly.
âMm, never seen a man enjoy the taste of ya?â
You shake your head. âNever expected to hear those words leave your mouth, either.â
âWait âtil you hear what else I got to say.â
He stands up beside the bed, grabs your hips, and brings them to the edge. He is tossing you around with ease, bringing your lower body flush with his. He yanks down his briefs, revealing himself to you. You instantly take notice of how well-endowed he is. You never thought you would ever be close to his cock, let alone have it lining up at your entrance.Â
âJoelâŠâ You stop him with your small voice, but still welcoming him in with your legs opened wide, âI donât know if it will fit.â
He grins, âIt will, baby. Just relax for me, okay?â
You watch him slide his member along your center, the feeling so blissfully overstimulating. You whine a bit, raising your hips to his.Â
But Joel continues his torture, enjoying the way youâre squirming under him. The way your eyebrows are knitted together, your eyes shut as you grind up into him. Itâs the prettiest sight.Â
âReady?â
Your eyes fly open as you watch him ease his way into your core, the sound of squelching filling the room. You donât think you have ever been this wet for someone.Â
âOh my fuckinâ god, JoelâŠâ
He smiles as he inches in, âSqueezinâ my cock so good, darlinâ.â
When heâs fully sheathed inside, he tests the waters by drawing out slowly. You roll your hips in a circle, trying to feel out every inch of him. He fits, but you know once he starts to move faster, the stretch will become overwhelming.Â
Heâs trying to focus and not blow his load immediately. You look so beautiful below him, your tits slowly shifting back and forth every time he draws back and forth. He reaches out, wanting to feel the flesh between his fingers. God, he craved every inch of you, he realizes.Â
You open your legs as far as you can, letting him hit you at a different angle. The movement allows him to slip in a bit more seamlessly, so when he speeds up his thrusts, you donât feel like you will completely split in half.Â
He brings your leg up to hips, and feeling your soft delicate skin against him makes him lose all sense. His hips snap faster the more you moan out for him.Â
âFuckinâ Christ, girl. I canât believe I was missinâ out on this cunt,â He babbles, âNeed this cunt every day from now on. Gonna have you all to myself every night.â
You are too fucked out of your mind to read into those implications.
ââM all yours, Joel.â
He smiles, slowing down a bit. âKeep talkinâ like that and âll finish a lot sooner than you.â
You sit up a bit, your eyes flickering over his entire body. He notices you checking out his nude frame, which makes him feel a bit more bold. He leans down, capturing your lips in a hungry kiss. You love the way his tongue slips into your mouth so effortlessly. When he opens his mouth, his facial hair tickles your nose a bit which makes you smile. When his hips pick back up to a quicker pace, it sends you gasping into his mouth.
âPlease, Joel,â You whine, that familiar build starts up but this time itâs like a freight train. Moving so quickly down every nerve ending in your body. âIâm gonna cum.â
ââM with you, darlinâ. Soak this dick. Iâm right behind ya.â
His dirty talk causes the crash. Your body practically lifts off the mattress. You cry out so loud you are sure a neighbor could hear you. You try to gain your bearings, but you are panting like you just ran a mile.Â
Joel fucks you through it, but the restriction your pussy is putting on his cock sends him over the edge. His hips stutter into yours, his seed emptying into your spent hole. He just keeps repeating your name as his thrusts slow down.
He has never had such a visceral orgasm in his life. His knees are weak and can hardly keep up his weight. He practically falls on top of you, which does not offend you at all. His warm sweaty body on top of you is almost reassuring.Â
âYou okay, kiddo?â He finally mutters as his hot breath fans the nape of your neck. You just nod, bringing your hand up to his salt and pepper hair. You tug lightly, smiling to yourself.Â
âIâm more than okay.â
He finally sits up, his cock spilling out of you as he adjusts his position. Your hole drips a mixture of cum onto your newly clean sheets, but you could care less. Itâs just another thing to hand wash tonight.
Joel stumbles to the middle of the room, picking up your bath towel. He uses it to wipe himself up before coming over to you. Your legs are still slightly apart so he decides to clean you up a bit. Heâs gentle, knowing that you are probably still sensitive.
Once he finishes up, he crawls next to you as you continue to recover. Your bones felt like jello so standing up to adjust yourself was not an option.
So instead of facing him, you stare up at your ceiling fan as his eyes lock onto every detail of your profile. It brings him back to one night you two shared under the stars a couple of years ago. It was his turn to keep watch so you curled up in your sleeping bag by the fire. He admired you from across the flames, the orange hues lit up every angle of your face. It was at that moment that Joel realized that he could not picture his life without you. You had weaseled your way into every facet of his life and he used to resent the impact you had on him. You were younger, more patient but still stubborn like him. You made him laugh, like genuinely laugh, for the first time since the infection. While you may have been a bit impulsive with your emotions, he envied the way you could say exactly what you were thinking.Â
Joel did not want to love you, but it was impossible not to.Â
You finally look over at him, noticing the softness in his gaze.
âAre you okay?â You pose, scrunching your nose.Â
He gives you a toothless smile, his eyes crinkling a bit. âI just canât wait to sleep next to you for the rest of my life.â

Idea: Shen Jiu wanders by the camp of children waiting for the entrance exam one night and comes across a small child beating Shang Qinghua with a stick shouting about his terrible writing and stupid ideas
It's very amusing even as Shang Qinghua is clearly not hurt he still looks cowed. And Shen Jiu is thoughtful, leaving his Shidi to get beaten by a small child
The next day the kids barely break soil before Shen Jiu is like: "That one" pointing at Shen Yuan
Everyone is surprised and pleased with his decision he leaves and in a frantic bit of panic Shang Qinghua nabs Luo Binghe
Which leads to Shen Yuan repeatedly stealing Luo Binghe and when questioned he says "he belongs on Qing Jing, not with that man"
Shen Qingqiu is delighted by the spite and joins Shen Yuan in trying to get Luo Binghe to switch to Qing Jing but Luo Binghe actually quite likes An Ding and Shang Qinghua who ruffles his hair and personally taught him to read.
(Shang Qinghua just wants to not die)
Anyway Shen Qingqiu secretly delights in Shen's sassy and snarky ways but he's also bad with children so he's like "fascinating." *pokes Shen Yuan with a long stick*
Ming Fan tries to bully Shen Yuan and gets called a "forgettable cannon fodder" and "ant boy" and immediately deflates and cries
Remember Shen Yuan was a bored rich kid internet weirdo. He's not dealing with bullshit if he can get away with it
