“It’s not funny.” Stefan rolled his shoulders and neck as if working out a kink. “As soon as the fellas heard that I transferred to NSU and was looking for a frat to join, they let me join on my own terms.”
Stefan’s expression turned thoughtful. “But still, whoever sent this must want something from us. Why else would they want us to watch . . .” his voice trailed off as his eyes fell upon the package that the USB device had arrived in.
Slowly, he picked it up and looked inside before turning it upside down. Sure enough, a folded-up note fell out into his palm. Stefan glanced at me once before opening and reading it.
My heart jumped in my chest at the frozen expression on Stefan’s face. “What does it say?” I inquired breathlessly, fearing the answer.
Without answering, Stefan handed it to me, my heart feeling as if it was going to pound out of my chest as I read the words scrawled in large print.
TELL THE TRUTH OR ELSE.
The taste of sawdust filled my mouth as the note fell from my hands to the bedroom floor.
“Oh, God,” I whispered, my limbs shaking violently, my heart racing faster than a track horse. The room started spinning around me and I felt like I couldn’t breathe. My vision narrowed until it was one black dot, and all sound began to fade away.
“Don’t start panicking, Bella,” I dimly heard Stefan say in the background. To my faded hearing, he sounded extra muffled. “Everything is going to be okay. We’ll get through this as usual . . . Bella?”
I fell back on Stefan’s bed, my eyes rolling into the back of my head. I honestly don’t know how long I was passed out—probably only a few seconds—but I awoke to the gentle touch of Stefan’s hands on my forehead.
“Bella,” he breathed in relief when he saw my eyes flutter open. “You kind of scared me there.”
“I don’t know what just happened,” I said weakly. “The room started closing in on me and I felt like I couldn’t breathe.”
Stefan delivered a soft kiss to my lips and cupped my cheeks in his hands, stroking them gently. “It’s okay. You were probably just having a minor panic attack.”
I stared up into Stefan’s eyes. They were so beautiful, but what really touched me was the love and concern for me reflected in them.
“You think so?” I asked.
“Yeah.” Stefan brought his lips down on mine again, more firmly than the last. “But I know something that will relieve some of that stress and make it a little better.”
“What’s that?” I asked, excited by the huskiness in his tone.
Stefan’s eyes flashed. He began kissing me on my neck, each kiss burning more than the last, and then worked his way down my stomach. He lifted my blouse, exposing my belly that was still flat and not yet showing the life that was growing inside it.
When he was done ravaging my midsection, he deftly undid my jeans and slid them halfway down my thighs. By this time, my panties were soaking wet and my limbs were shuddering with anticipation.
And Stefan was never one to disappoint. He pulled my panties to the right side of my thigh, exposing my swollen clit and wet lips. With a sound of hunger, he placed his mouth around my mound, sucking and slurping up my juices with powerful suction.
My lips parted and I let out a half-moan, half-cry of pleasure at the incredible sensation. “Shit!” I cried out, my thighs quavering around Stefan’s neck. “That feels so good.”
Stefan paused for a moment to grin up at me, his lips wet. “Good.”
He returned to kneading my clit with his teeth, this time with even more force. I dug my nails into the bedding to deal with the incredible sensations washing through my body and clenched my teeth, fighting to stay quiet. My parents were still in the house, and though our house was quite large, I was sure they'd hear me if I kept this up.
After a moment, Stefan stuck two fingers inside, sliding them in and out as he slithered his tongue over my clit, sending shockwaves of pleasure rolling through my body.
Fighting to keep all sound in, I reached down and grabbed Stefan’s hair while he went to town, running my fingers through the soft silkiness and making it a tousled mess.
Stefan stared up at me as he kept his mouth glued to my pussy, his powerful fingers ramming in and out of me. Gazing into his eyes, I was struck by the intensity and the incredible sensations that were sweeping through my body. It became too much to hold in.
The room began to swim in my vision, my body temperature rising. I could feel the tidal wave building deep in the depths of my stomach, demanding release.
I parted my lips to cry as I felt it coming, ready to explode like a supernova, when the door swung open and a familiar voice demanded,
