Chapter 114


    Moving Forward


    JACE POV


    Getting E back to our apartment is first on my list of things to do now that we have her stalker in


    custody. Fucking Davis! I don’t even know the guy’sst name, that’s how much interaction I had with


    him in the past. I just know that he took the training like I did, but apparently, he isn’t as good as I am


    either. He’s got some serious issues if he thinks he needs to go after an innocent woman just to get


    revenge. Had I known he would do this, I would have dly handed him the fucking position. All he had


    to do is wait for me to leave, and he would have had it, but no, the dumb dick up and quit and went


    after my girl instead.


    I’m not too concerned about Cindy since Kingsly has his eyes on her, so now, I can give all my


    attention to the woman that I’m carrying in my arms. I’m pissed that she got hurt after | promised her


    that she wouldn’t, and I’m even more pissed that Kingsly pulled me off the fucker. Thank God for good


    friends like Jude, who has my back in times like this. The way he pounded his fist into Davis’s face after


    I was pulled away, helped to calm some of my anger.


    That’s one thing about Jude, he despises men who are abusive to women. There is a fine line in what


    we do as Domi nants and what abusers do. We do it to give pleasure to our partner and we always


    stop if they safe word; our sub is al ways in charge. Then there are abusers who prey on women


    because they are weaker, and they want to show the power that they have over the woman. Putting


    aside what he does as


    a side job, Jude is a lover of all women and will not stand by and let them be abused unless they


    deserve it; take Kaylee for example. I don’t think I need to say more on that ount, but I think you


    catch my drift. I’m blessed to have that fucker as a friend.


    When we reach our ce, I take E straight to our room andy her in bed before going back to the


    kitchen for an ice pack. The motherfucker hit her good, her cheekbone is swelling, and I can already


    see a bruise starting. Ie back to find E sitting on the edge of the bed, starting to pull off her


    shoes.


    “Let me do that for you, baby. Lay back down and keep this pack on your cheek.”


    Like the good girl that she is, she scoots back andys her head down on her pillow, bringing the ice to


    her face. I pull off the second shoe that she hadn’t gotten to and then hook my fingers into her leggings


    and pull them off, keeping her panties firmly in ce. I then kick my own shoes off andy down beside


    her, so I can hold her for a while.


    I don’t know what’s going on outside of this room and at the moment, I don’t care. The only thing that


    needs my atten tion at this moment is the woman in my arms. She snuggles in closer to me and I kiss


    the top of her head.


    “It’s finally over, E.”


    “Is it? What about Cindy?”


    “I’m not too worried about her.”


    “Jace, she’s the one that injured me to begin with. Davis neverid a hand on me until today when he


    found himself


    trapped in a corner.”


    “That is no excuse for what he did, but you’re right, Cindy does need to be brought in as well. I only


    said it because Kingsly has his eye on her and knows her every move. He will bring her in now that we


    have Davis.”


    E’s sigh is of relief, and I can feel her whole body rx, “It’s really over then? No more guards?”


    “Yes, no more guards.”


    “I’m going to miss Owen and Malik, but Reece is really go ing to be upset. She has it bad for Owen.”


    I chuckle, “Who doesn’t she have it bad for?”


    “I’m serious. She’s never came right out and told me, but I can see with my own eyes, and I’m pretty


    sure he feels the same about her.”


    “He’s like six years older than her!” | snort.


    “So, since when is age a thing when feelings are involved. As long as they are both consenting adults.”


    She huffs.


    “You’ve seen how he blushes about the stuff we do, do you think Reece will be the Domme and Owen


    the submis sive?” I had to ask, if anything than to lighten the mood.


    E gasps and then giggles, pping me in the chest, “Jace Mitchell Palmer!”


    “Oomf… what? It was a serious question!” Iugh.


    The door opening draws our attention, and we see Judee walking in, closing the door behind him,


    “Sounds like I’m


    missing all the fun.”


    Troll my eyes at my friend, and scoff, “It’s not that kind of fun, dick.”


    “Hey, I didn’t say that that’s what I meant. I just heardughter.” He climbs into the bed on the other


    side of E, “Do you mind?” He asks me and I shrug. I know he won’t do any thing inappropriate to her,


    so I don’t care. The more people E has around her, the more it will help her move forward.


    “How you holding up, Precious?” Jude asks her.


    “I’m ok. Relieved that I no longer have to look over my shoulder wherever I go.”


    “How are you physically?”


    She shrugs, “Aside from my cheek and a little soreness in my side from when he stretched my arms


    over my head, I feel pretty good, just a little exhausted.”


    “That’s good to hear,” Jude states and then turns his at tention to me, “Precious here, thought it would


    be okay to roll her eyes at me earlier when she brought you into the room. I demand retribution.” I can


    tell he’s holding back his smile as he keeps the serious look on her face.


    I’m feeling really bad for my girl at the moment, because this can only mean one thing… a torture


    session with Jude. Al though, I won’t be surprised if it turns out that she likes his torture, she’s a freak


    like that, but it will still be fun to watch.


    I nod to my friend, “I understand, but there will be no pen etration from you. I will be there to do that


    part, but your hands stay external only.”


    “As long as you do to her everything I tell you to, I will be fine with it.” My friend then turns to E, “You


    do understand what happens in my sessions, correct?”


    Her eyes go wide, and I watch as a shiver runs through her, she’s turned on already. When I reach my


    hand into her panties, I find her soaked, “Fuck Jude, you may need to get creative because she’s


    already wet over the idea of being in one of your torture sessions!” | chuckle and show him my wet


    fingers before inserting them into E’s mouth.


    “Oh, you like that idea huh? Well, I think I can get a bit more imaginative.” He caresses her cheek and


    presses his lips against her forehead, “Get some rest, Precious. I want you well rested by tomorrow


    night.” Climbing from the bed, he heads to the door, “I better go make sure Beth is doing okay. I left her


    restrained to the Sybian. I will probably have a huge wet mess to clean up before I take her myself.”


    The sick bas tard chuckles and then shuts the door behind him.


    “Oh, my God, he’s left Beth on a toy all this time?” E gasps.


    “That’s Jude for ya! You don’t realize what you have got ten yourself into by rolling your eyes at him.


    You think I’m bad… pssh, you haven’t seen anything yet.” Iugh at the ex pression on my girl’s face.


    It’s a mixture of horror and excite ment, “You’re such a little slut, you know that?” I kiss her fore head.


    “Yep, only for you, Sir…only for you…”


    Moving forward isn’t as easy as I thought it would be. Without having Owen or Malik up our asses, I’m


    looking over


    my shoulder every chance I get, but I guess it’s better to be safe than sorry. Today, E and I are


    heading over to finally check out Jude and Beth’s rental that they have been going on about, and of


    course, Jude and E’s session. I’m not going to lie, I’m a little nervous of what he may have up his


    sleeve for my girl, but I know whatever it is, she’s going to love it, un less he edges and doesn’t allow


    for release, but then I may have to take care of herter, without telling him, of course, and only if she’s


    a good girl throughout the session.


    We find what looks like a small barn-looking house and I pull up next to Jude’s rental car. The front


    door opens and Jude steps out and waits for us to make our way to him. He grins and brings me in for


    a man hug before requesting per mission and pulling E in for a friendly hug.


    I had already exined to E about Jude and Beth’s twenty-four-seven D/s rtionship, and even


    though they are on vacation and he’s a bit more lenient, inside their own space, it’s always D/s. So, I’m


    assuming she is prepared when we step inside and as always, Beth is kneeling naked, but E doesn’t


    seem surprised and just smiles at her.


    “You may go talk with Beth.” Jude gives his permission.


    “Thank you, Master Jude.” She replies and goes over to kneel beside Beth.


    I watch her for a moment, proud of how far she hase. I know a lot of people would say that we are


    so young to be in a responsible D/s rtionship, but it’s all about the mindset and how responsible the


    person is. E has grown in all areas, and still, she shows promise of even more.


    “How she doing?” Jude asks as he hands me a bottle of

    water as he drinks from his own.


    “She’s actually doing pretty well, better than I am.” | chuckle, “I’ve been looking over my shoulder all


    day long, and it feels odd not having the guys around. As soon as Kingsly picked up Cindyst night,


    the guys packed up and headed


    out.”


    My friend nods his head in understanding, “I think I would be the same way. You want to make sure


    she is protected at all times and even though the threat is gone, you can’t help but be cautious because


    if it happened once, it could happen again.”


    “That is so true my friend,” | then change the subject, ‘So, do you want to tell me what you have in store


    for my girl tonight?”


    Jude’s grin is on the sinister side as he ps me on the shoulder, “All in good time, my little friend.”
