AN: This is book 2 in the Taboo Club Series. I will break it into parts this time because I realize many people here prefer shorter pieces.
Chapter 1 -- Ava
Three months earlier
"That will be all for today. Thank you, guys." I wrap the meeting. I rise almost immediately and I head to my office. I want to moan, I'm so glad that's the last meeting for the day.
I hate Wednesdays.
I have five meetings back-to-back and mostly it's me alone. I still should have never let Hunter convince me to switch so I can come to his COO position. That sexy, sneaky devil. But we are due to switch back in three months and I can't wait for my CEO chair back.
My PA hands me a note. A letter. I give her a small smile even though I want to hit his face. I appreciate the romantic gesture but he knows how snoopy PAs are and I don't want to deal with the world's opinions.
I walk in my office. I feel the fatigue as I slide in my chair. I place my tablet in front of me and I take a letter opener and I tear the envelop. The faint scent of his cologne melts my insides. Okay, he is adorable. The fucker.
Baby,
The time is 14:15. I came to check if you were finished with your meeting. I wanted to give you a kiss. And also remind you I love you. You will always be my number one girl.
Love,
Your Hunter
(PS: This is also a reminder that I'm better than Ax. 'winky face'
I chuckle. Hunter is an idiot. I press my lips on the letter and I pull my bag and I place it inside. My door opens and I expect it to be him but Axel comes in. I smile before he says anything and he quips a brow.
"What's got you so happy, pretty girl? I thought I was here to check on you after the meetings." He closes the door, his hands on his pockets and he stalks to me in that quiet, calm and sexy as fuck way he always does. My nethers get excited instantly. I know he knows because he has a small smirk in his face but instead of coming to me like I want, he just sits in the visitors chair. I give him a face and he pretends he is innocent.
"Hex sent me a letter." I grin widely at him.
He smiles fondly too. "Show off. I was going to get you flowers."
"And when was that?"
"On our way home."
"I'm afraid you can't top this, bro." I challenge.
He quips a perfect brow at me -- brows that he and Hunter have that I am severely jealous of. Genes suck sometimes. Giving perfect features to people who won't even appreciate them. My brothers are both Adonises with basically perfect everything and I have to put in effort to even be able to stand between them. It's unfair. "Is that a challenge, miss thing?"
"Yes, it is. Now please take me home." I insert a little whine in there and he just shakes his head with a small smile.
"Come on, you big baby." He rises from his chair.
My gaze is on the same level as his now tented pants and I can't help the immediate thirst, so I lick my lip before my eyes find him. He looks at me steadily like he always does. He's not trying to conceal his want of me and I feel a little dizzy at the intensity.
As if to flex the power he has on me, he saunters to my side of the desk, my heart hitching as I hold my breath a little. Axel is one person who is unpredictable of the three of us. He also enjoys toying with people and working his strengths. Right now, he knows what he is doing to me even with just a look.
I lift my eyes to meet his blazing green ones. The same ones as mine and Hunter's. It is like looking at my soul reflected back at me. Both my brothers are. We are truly a part of each other and where Hunter is the angel on my shoulder, Axel is the devil. He oozes severe dark energy. He leans into me and I feel wetness squeeze out of me at his closeness. The possibility of someone walking in making me even dizzier.
He grabs my chin and he tilts my face, revealing more of my neck to him. His warmth envelopes me as he comes close and then he bites me, soft at first and then hard. I cry out and he groans. When he stops, he gives the length of my neck a long lick and he makes a growling sound. Fucking animal.
"Let's go home, baby. So I can take care of that dripping pussy." He says to my ear and I shudder.
I don't know when he is back up but he offers me his hand and like a moth to a flame I take it. he takes my electronics and puts them in my bag and takes it.
I follow after him, not bothering to check the mark he's left in my neck. I don't need to. I know he will never do anything to put me in a difficult situation and we agreed on the terms and limitations of our relationship a long time ago.
Its hard to believe we have been doing this for so many years. What's even harder to believe is we've been doing this for so many years in secret. With a relationship like ours, people always judge and I am not ready for that. My brothers had been ready for whatever consequence in society but I wasn't.
And I know for a fact our company wouldn't have been where it is had we been out as lovers. Even though it hurt but we had our safe spaces. We had our home; we had the club and we had our vacation homes and the rest of the world that didn't know us. But when we were here, we had to be smart.
The world was not ready to accept relationships like ours. To them, there had to be something wrong with us. People jumped to all the bad things that maybe could happen, but no one ever talked about the kind of love that could be experienced. It's a fact I know that no one will ever love me like my brothers, and no one will ever love them like me.
When they say they'll do anything for me, they mean that shit. When they say they love me with all their heart, they mean that shit. I don't have to worry about half love and skewed intentions. I don't have to worry about there ever being anybody above me because there can never be any.
But my brothers feel differently about the secrecy. Evident with how Axel places his hand on my ass in the elevator as we ride down. There are many people in it but we are at the back. They both do this, little touches, looks. I have resigned to it being they can't stop themselves. They are in love and I get it.
So in times like these, I let them have it. I allow them to satisfy their primal need to claim me, even if its in little ways like touching my ass in an elevator full of distracted people or biting my neck because they want to do so much more.
As the elevator opens to let all the people out at the ground floor, I feel Axel's eyes on me. When it closes, he covers my body with his so the cameras don't see what he's doing. I stare up at him.
"You're too close, Ax." I pant even as I don't want him to be even an inch further.
"Not close enough." I see something in his eyes and I know what he wants to say before he says it. "I am tired of hiding, sis."
I frown but the elevator opens before I can say anything. I let him lead me out by the small of my back and luckily, our car is very close. He opens my door and I slide in. He goes to his side and gets in too.
I expect him to say something when he settles, but he doesn't. he drives us out of the underground parking and he speeds through the mostly quiet street our offices are located in this industrial area. He looks unaffected but I have known him for 27 years and I know what has him gripping the steering wheel tight. But he says nothing.
I finally look away from him when he won't say anything. It is with a little heaviness because I know what he feels is valid. I know it but I am afraid. Our industry is small and we are still trying to grow as a business. We may lose everything. They don't care. I mean, they do, of course but not as much as I do.
We ride through the light traffic to our house. A part of me wants to soothe him. But I stay in my seat unmoving. Maybe if Hunter hadn't taken the driver, we may have had time behind the partition and I would have made him feel better.
My hand moves instinctively even though my face doesn't. I reach for the back of his neck and I brush him lightly. His slight shiver makes me look his way. He looks at me for a brief second before he goes back to focus on the road. His shoulders relax a little. I keep my hands there and I run them through his hair too. He emits a low moan and I smile to myself.
He swerves through the highway at a higher speed as he rushes home. I know him so well, I know what's going on in that horny head of his.
We are home ten minutes later and the SUV is here meaning Hunter is back from golf. Of all the things I hated engaging in as CEO, golf with the clients was definitely one of them. My brothers happily take that off my hands whenever I cannot muster the love to go laugh at those peoples dry jokes, wandering eyes and the scorching sun.
I hate the sun. I don't mind the warmth but I don't like it on my skin. The sweating is the worst. The tan is great though and who doesn't like a good tan.
I take Axel's hand as he leads me out of the car. He pulls me to him with some force and I yelp. Then he crashes our lips together. His kiss is passionate and wanting. His erection on my stomach also very pronounced. I know what he needs, I need it too. I am ready to be ravished right here and right now by one of the loves of my life.
He lifts me up and my pant-clad legs wrap around his waist and he pins me to the car. We are moans and hands and bites. I suck his neck as he undoes my shirt hurriedly. Just as I reach for his belt, the garage door opens and both of us pull away.
He grunts when we see the feet. Its Harry, our driver. Before he can see us, Axel lifts me off the car and he hurries out to the open elevator. I still have my legs around his waist as he presses the third floor where our bedroom is.
He goes back to kissing me. If Harry sees something then it's a non-issue. All our staff know about us. And it is our house.
"You smell so good, baby." He rasps, his voice full of lust.
I answer with a moan and the elevator soon opens. He walks us out and luckily our bedroom isn't far from the elevator. He pushes the double doors and he heads for the bed. I say, "I want you in my mouth first."
Chapter 2 -- Ava
He whines before he says. "Too turned on. Need to be inside you."
He deposits me in bed. We both make quick work with our clothes. Its not making love time. Its fuck o'clock. Its lets-remind-one-another-what-we-mean-to-one-another time. That means everything is primal and raw. No time for seducing or sensual undressing or long scores of foreplay. Its ride-his-dick-until-he-begs-for-mercy o'clock.
