Chapter 25 - Frightened

"you know it would have felt a lot better if your ex wasn't crazy hot even while bleeding," I say to Nathan as we wait patiently for Selina to wake up.

"What can I say. I have impeccable taste in women" he says in a sultry voice as his hand comes toward from behind me with a glass of bourbon in it.

"Oh really?" I ask with a raised eyebrow expecting him to cower at the implications but as expected he just calmly replies

"Well seeing as I'm dating an absolute goddess and an undercover freak at the moment I'd say yes" he replies as he pulls me flush against his chest and buries his beautiful head on my neck leaving a trail of hot kisses in his wake as his hands work their way down my shoulders, delicately tracing every curve and bump until they come to rest beneath my breasts.

my nipples harden as the rest of my body turns into playdough in his hands. The way he firmly kneads them causes soft moans to escape my lips as his lips continue sucking on my neck and sending the heat straight down to the new waterfall in my underwear.

I grab his hands and start to guide them downwards before a voice suddenly interrupts us "if you guys aren't going to include me I'd really appreciate it if you'd stop right now" Selina says as she blinks her eyes to clear the pounding in her head while Nathan and I quickly rearrange ourselves.

"well look who's suddenly ashamed. By all means, do continue, a little voyeurism never really hurt anyone " Selina continues with a smirk as she tries her best to look strong, which I'd absolutely respect if she wasn't a crazy bitch who just tried to kill me.

"Jealousy isn't a good look on you Selina," Nathan says as he walks towards her with a look on his face that says murder but Selina sits unfazed and looks almost bored

"The mean face is new but we both know you can't do anything to me cause charlotte would kill you. But I am open to an intense BDSM sesh with you and Beckham over there" she says in an even more relaxed tone than before

"Its Becca" I grit out at the half-witted bitch but she yawns with a bored look on her face

"Oh honey, you're not fooling anyone with those man shoulders and light facial stubble" she replies and honestly I'm a little impressed at the foul mouth on this bitch but ill always be better''...

"if that's true then id be pretty ashamed to be you. Both of the men in your life love me more than you so if I'm manly then I wonder what bigfoot was doing with that sasquatch when they had you" I reply with a dominant smirk that I'm hoping tells her that I'm the queen bitch and she's a lowly pauper.

"Nice job Becca. Looks like you have some balls after all" Selina says with a smirk that tells me that this bitch ain't defeated yet but I could care less cause honestly I just want answers

"Oh good, let's use this newfound mutual respect to have an honest conversation. Like for example, of all the fucking idiots out there, Why Mario?" I ask her to which she scoffs in surprise

"Wait that's what you want to know? Not why I did it, but why Mario?" she asks curiously

"That question isn't relevant to me, I already knew that sooner or later I'd have to face your skanky ass. I just want to know why you didn't go with someone whose IQ isn't on the negative side" I ask her as I place my hands on both sides of the chair she's strapped to and look her right in the face

She starts to answer before the door bursts open and one of Nathan's guards falls into the room face first. Nathan wastes no time in grabbing a Glock and aiming it at the door while stepping in front of me like a protective shield.

a very tall familiar frame steps through the door frame while rubbing a very strongly scented lemon sanitizer on his hands muttering the word "yuck" under his breath over and over again

"James?" l ask in surprise as he looks up and sighs in relief when he sees me

"oh Becca darling, we were so worried when you failed to complete your mission," he says as he approaches us with his arms stretched out for a hug but Nathan aiming the gun at him has James stopping in his tracks

"umm, Nathan you can put the gun down now" l say as l wonder what Nathan is doing but his gaze never leaves James

"Becca l don't trust this guy. " Nathan says with an unwavering gaze and an even steadier aim

"Nathan you're embarrassing me in front of my friend" I whisper to him but he doesn't flinch

"You're friend just took out one of the only people in the world who can give me a run for my money in a fight, so forgive me if I'm not in a trusting mood right now" he grits out as the barrel of his gun remains trained on James's forehead

"Nathan put the gun down," I say to him softly as I direct his gaze towards e and he eventually drops the gun.

"Whoa, that was so tense. Thought for a second there that you were going to shoot her and do us all a favor but since you didn't. why don't we take a moment to sort through your obvious lack of communication" Selina says with a pensive almost therapist-like look on her face but Nathan and I just roll our eyes in unison at her.

"whos the drag queen reject?" James asks as he walks past us and observes Selina like one would observe an animal at the zoo

"my ex-wife" Nathan replies sternly

"Yikes," James says before walking over to Nathan and handing him a business card

"What's this?" Nathan asks

"My ophthalmologist's card. You clearly need it cause I'm not sure how else you'd have missed all the crazy on this bitch" James says as he walks away without a second glance

"Why exactly am I not allowed to kill this fool" Nathan whispers sternly to me but stifling my laughter I kiss him and it seems to calm him down.

"So Becca why exactly are you not done with the mission," James asks as he leans against the table

"I've been a little busy " I reply as I strategically place myself in front of Nathan to stop him from killing James. luckily enough isaac walks back into the room taking away all the attention from James.

"SO what'd I miss," He asks as he inspects the wreckage and tense atmosphere all around and that's when I have the best idea I've ever had in a while.

"Isaac, how would you like to do me a favor?" I ask as sweetly as I can with one leg raise and eyelashes batting so cutely that no one could possibly rationally decline.

"No," he says as he turns right around and walks away. well at least I tried the nice way

"You will do me a favor or you and granny feel-good are going to become internet famous," I say sweetly as he turns right around and comes right back

"I hate you," he says but I just blow him a kiss as he waits for his assignment

15 minutes later Isaac and James are grumbling as they leave to carry out the mission that brought us to Paris in the first place. Ryan is placed in charge of the two prisoners leaving Nathan and I completely free.

"So why exactly did you clear our schedules?" Nathan asks with a knowing smirk but I'm too horny t deny him the satisfaction of being right

"So we can finally complete what we really came here to do," I say as I catwalk over to him before raising my mouth to his ear and gently nibbling on it

"I want you to take me back to the hotel and paralyze me for at least a week" I whisper into his ear and judging by the rise in his member that I'd been stroking and the affirmative "Yes Ma'am" it looks like were in for a wild night.
