I plan on getting her the hell out of here the second she puts her pencil down on the final test. Everything is putting me on edge lately and I’m tired of worrying about shadows.
“That’s the last of it,” I say to the head of security as I hand over the key to her flat.
He nods and adds it to the envelope with a nice stack of cash for the landlord. I don’t want any problems or someone trying to come after us once we’re gone. A few bills will go a long way to smooth that out.
“She’s still in the East Hall,” he confirms before I even have to ask.
“Thank you. I’ll let Sean drive me over and then I’ll meet you at the hotel.” I grab my bag and nod to the other guys who are cleaning the room of any traceable evidence. We can’t be too careful.
When I get in the SUV the driver Sean is already behind the wheel. He pulls away from the curb and drives us directly to campus. She’s not far and that’s another reason I wanted to get her out of the flat. I want to put as much reasonable distance as possible between her and the school now that Guzik is on to her.
I clench my fist as I think about something happening to her. I’m not the type of man to use violence or even get wrapped up in something like this. Before Berkley I would have just taken off and hid on the island where it was safe until this all blew over. I’m a laidback guy who doesn’t get involved in drama, but ever since the first time I saw her, my world has been turned upside down. I was sent to get her and bring her back safe, and suddenly that’s become my life's mission.
“She’s on the move,” I hear over the intercom, and I check my watch.
“She finished early.” My brows furrow together and I look to see how much farther we have to go. “Speed it up, Sean.”
He nods as he hits the gas and it’s an agonizing few minutes before I can finally see the big trees in the distance. There is a large grass field just outside the place where she took her exam, and as soon as Sean pulls up to the curb I’m opening the door and jumping out. I’m not sure the SUV came to a complete stop but I don’t care. I’m not wasting any time getting to her and I couldn’t stop my body if I tried.
My muscles are tense as I walk quickly through the green and scan the crowd. When I see her in the distance I begin to relax. She looks as if she’s doing the same as her eyes move over everyone and finally land on me. Her eyes widen and then she breaks out into a smile and comes charging in my direction.
I open my arms just as she nears me and she leaps into them. I smile and close my eyes, spinning her around and kissing her neck. Goddamn, she feels so right in my arms. I know I’ve been telling her not to think about the future, but that’s all I’ve been doing. I’ve had a million fantasies of her and me and our life together on the island. I should take my own advice, but hey, I’m not the one that needs to focus on school.
“I take it you did well?” I ask between nibbles of her neck. She laughs and winds her legs around my waist. I wish I could fuck her just like this.
“All thanks to you.” She pulls back, and to my shock she kisses me with as much enthusiasm as she did this morning when I was rubbing my dick on her.
“I like to think I’ve got excellent tutoring skills.” I remember very distinctly going over her flashcards with her and rubbing her clit every time she got one right.
She moves her mouth to my ear and I feel her kiss me there. “Every time I got one right I got wet.”
“Fuck.” I grab her ass and walk back to the SUV with her in my arms. “We’ve got to get out of here.”
“Shit,” she says, and I pull back to look at her. “I forgot to return my books but I can do it tomorrow.”
“Good, because I need you on your back.”
She laughs as I put her in the SUV and climb in after her. Sean hits the privacy screen and I can feel the car pull away from the curb. I move on top of Berkley and she eagerly spreads her legs. We fall into our routine of me rubbing against her, only this time it feels like we’re getting closer to the edge. We need more and more each time we touch and we both know exactly where this is headed.
“Please, Vaughn,” she whispers as she lifts her hips. “Please.”
I know what she’s begging for, but I’m a man of my word and I won’t break before she’s done with school. The last thing she needs right now is something else to occupy her thoughts and derail her.
“How about a kiss?” I say, and she makes an adorable grumpy face. “How about a kiss here?” I cup her sex and grip her there, watching her eyes widen.
Before she has a chance to answer I’m untying her pants and opening the front of them. When I slip my hand under her waistband I see she wasn’t lying about being wet. Her panties are drenched and my fingers are slick as they slide in between her folds.
“Jesus, Berkley, how many questions did you get right?” I grunt and surge my fingers into her warmth.
“All of them,” she moans as she grips my chest and arches her back.
“You’re so slippery I can hardly stay inside you.” I use my other hand to pull her pants down, kneeling between her legs.
I lean forward and shove up her shirt as I kiss her bare stomach. I make a path with my tongue to where my hand is and push her panties down to her ankles. Her knees open wide and I kiss up her thigh, working my fingers inside her pussy. We’ve done this plenty before but we’ve never gone this far.
When I reach her soft mound I use my tongue to divide her lips and she cries out at the first touch. She’s coated in slippery honey and I eat her like a starved animal. Her fingers grip my hair as I suck on her clit and swallow down her desire. She tastes like a sweet tart candy—I can’t get enough.
“I-I’m going—”
Before she can finish her sentence she climaxes so hard that it nearly knocks her off the seat. Lucky for her, I’m there to catch her lush ass and keep on going.
Her cries fill the cabin of the car and I have no doubt if there’s anyone on the sidewalk as we pass by they hear her. But these windows are dark, so when I stare down at her pussy glistening in the light, all I can think about is putting my cock in it.
“Vaughn,” she whispers softly and spreads her legs in invitation. This little devil is trying to break me.
“We’re here,” I say and lean down to kiss her pretty pink lips one more time before I lick my fingers clean and help get her dressed.
“I don’t think I can walk,” she says sleepily, and I gather her into my arms.
“Good thing you don’t have to.” I open the door of the SUV and step out onto the sidewalk. Her eyes are closed and I shake my head as I walk into the lobby. “And I’ll be here so you never have to again.”
Chapter Ten
Berkley
I stare down at the submit button on my screen and my finger hovers over it for a moment. I already know I nailed the final even though I’m finished in half the allotted time. This is it. Once I hit submit I’m a college graduate. I’m proud of myself because it was hard leaving my sister behind. I did what I set out to do and not only that but did it with honors.
I tap the screen and turn into a college graduate. They will have to mail me my degree because I’m not staying to walk across the stage but there isn't anyone to miss me doing it. I made sure not to form attachments here because I knew I’d be leaving. Even if there wasn't this threat out there I would’ve skipped the graduation and gone straight home to my sister. Now I’m racing out of here to get Vaughn.
