Chapter Six
Cyrus
What the everlasting fuck was I thinking? Taking Odette as my old lady? She needed someone to protect her. To protect her baby -- assuming she decided to keep it. I was the best protector she could find, which was why I volunteered.
I could keep her and the baby safe. From every-fucking-body. And when I found that asshole whoâd played her, then knocked her up, I was gonna make it so he never did it to another young woman ever again. Assuming I let him live.
Yes. That was my plan. I was committing to taking care of a friendâs sister and her child. I might never be able to give her the love she probably needed, but I could give her a stable home, a faithful man, and as much pleasure as she wanted.
Which brought up another question. Had that bastard whoâd lied to her made her feel good?
Yeah. No. Wasnât touching that. I got a pain in my chest thinking about her with someone else. Not happening again. She was mine.
The moment the thought entered my mind, I knew I meant it. I might not deal well with emotions, but I knew what I wanted. This possessiveness was something new. Iâd never been possessive over anything other than, perhaps, my bike. What I felt for Odette surpassed anything I had even felt before. Iâd say it bordered on the obsessive, but it went way beyond that. Iâd passed obsessive a long damn time ago. I was in the realm of stalker but wasnât about to back off.
âIâm not saying youâre right, Cyrus, but yeah. I feel safe with you. I know youâd never intentionally hurt me. How do I know that?â She gave a little chuckle. âNo fucking clue. I just canât believe my brother would be close with someone who wasnât a good person.â
âAt the risk of cutting my own throat, donât kid yourself. Iâm not a nice man, Odette. But I will protect you with my life and do everything in my power to make you happy.â
She was still straddling my lap. My cock was a living thing between us. There was no way she could fail to notice it, but she only stiffened once -- when I first positioned her over me.
âYou need food and rest,â I said, not wanting to let her out of my arms but knowing I couldnât keep her with me like this forever. âYou want a shower while I round you up something?â
âYeah. I think thatâd be nice.â
âGood. I think the women got you some bathroom stuff, and I had a couple prospects retrieve your things from the crappy hotel you were staying at.â If there was disapproval in my voice, it was deserved. The place she was staying at was in a bad part of town and probably had rodents and insects scurrying around.
âIt was what I could comfortably afford for the longest amount of time.â
âNo excuses, Odette. I think thatâs three I owe you.â
She gave me a blank look, like she didnât remember my promise to spank her.
