Claiming Red: The O'Connell Family(16)



I walked into the bathroom, ran the water and rinsed off the blood. Then I filled the bath with warm water for my Red. With tiny, light feathery kisses to her face and chest, I woke my woman up. “Come on baby, it is time for you to take a bath. I googled it, it should help with the aching in your muscles.” She groggily got up and I stared like a fool as my dick got harder. Her red wavy hair fell over her face before she lifted it away. She sat there with just a sheet covering her mound, but exposing those glorious breasts to me. I grinned as I bit my cheek, I needed the pain to remember, and she needed time to heal from my intrusion.

“Thank you for the bath.” She smiled innocently up at me and with all the self-control I could possess I let her walk away and into the bathroom. I knew that she would be sore as fuck. I had to remember, cherish, not ravish, and well okay ravish, but just not when she is tender.

“Take your time baby.” I walked out of the room and down the stairs. I couldn’t count on my control being that close to her knowing she was only covered by the water.

Fuck, I got to call my dad, so I can stop thinking about her for five minutes. The skin on my cock is going to tear apart if I am constantly hard. My sexy Red is going to get it, good, later.

I made the call, “Dad, what’s up? Is everything ok?”

“Yes, I had a long talk with your uncle and he would like you to give a call. Don’t worry, he knows she is your ‘one’. He and I had a long talk yesterday.”

“Okay, well Samantha is in the bath, so I will do it right now.”

“I love you, son.” I hung up with my father and made the call I was not looking forward to making. I made sure the line was secure because I never knew who was listening in to my uncle’s calls.

“Ahh, nephew, it is a pleasure to hear from you. I have learned that you are hiding your fiancé from me.”

“Well, I heard you wanted her for yourself.”

“Ahh, yes and no. All I can say nephew, is that there were others messing with what was mine. In order to make them go away I agreed to pursue Rhonda Lake’s plan. I was only going to help the girl out.”

“And I am supposed to believe it.” I needed more than some half ass excuse before I would let my guard down with him.

“Come on, I had no interest in a minor. At my age, I need a woman with experience. I don’t have time to teach a girl how to fuck. When you are older hard-ons are not that easy to come by, naturally, I can’t waste the good ones I get, on someone not willing, or able to give it to me good.” God the old man was gross. Now that I think about it, none of the ladies I seen him with were under thirty.

“Enough, what is with this family and sharing too much personal information.”

“Why are you such a prude? Anyways, I am sorry, I scared your girl. I know she ran, afraid of me. Only one, or two people know what the truth is. I am not the most dangerous animal out there anymore. Those fucked up parents of hers made it so, I wasn’t the only one interested. Over the years, she was rumored to be for sale to the highest bidder, but they needed to wait until she was eighteen to claim her. The thing is, they were selling the same product to several people.”

“What!?” I tried to control my rage, people needed to die and her parents were number one on my list.

“I am sorry, my boy. I will do all I can to make sure we find the buyers and deal with them. Just keep her safe, get that ring on her finger as soon as possible and…Nephew… be happy.” I heard the sadness in his voice and I wondered was it for my woman, or was it because he had lost the love of his life.

“Thank you, Uncle John.”

I thought about everything I had learned. My uncle’s words had to be true, even though they were vague, because he knew where to find her parents. They hadn’t moved and the others had to wait for her to turn eighteen. I tried to breathe. I called Roger and asked for an update, but it was still too soon for a turnaround.

When she came out of the bath, I was already making us something small to eat. I was taking her to dinner tonight, but we hadn’t eaten since the flight and I needed to make sure we had our strength.

We arrived at my favorite restaurant. I loved that this was all new to her. She had never been to Greece, so I promised to show her around. The dinner had been delicious, as usual, and I got to enjoy watching her eat. It’s funny, of all the dates I had been on, I hadn’t cared to watch a woman eat before. With Samantha, I wanted all the little things. Every bite of the chicken had me wanting to climb over the table and kiss those lips. She picked up her glass of wine, and I wanted her to hold on to my cock like that, as she daintily sipped from me. I needed to calm down or I wouldn’t be able to stand.
