The Life of Anna, Part 2: Entwined (7 page)

As much as Devin was loathe to admit it, Alex was right. Anna needed to be around people. More than just sexually. She was very awkward in situations that didn't involve sex.

He realized he had to play the nice card again and smiled at her. “Yes, I would agree, Alex. She has been isolated for too long.” Devin deliberately softened his gaze as he looked at her. “Maybe I was wrong, keeping you away from people. You've never even been on a date, have you?”

Anna blinked and looked at him with wide eyes. “N-no, Master.”

Devin gave her a gentle smile. “That is a pity. My girls are at that age....” He sighed. His girls were growing up too fast. “Anna, you should go out and have fun. Be young for a while. As Alex said, we only ask that you act respectably and be available when I or Alex needs you.”
And when they break her heart, she'll come crawling back to me and never want to go out again.
This idea had merit.

Anna's mouth opened, her lips forming a beautiful pink ‘o’ that he wanted to ram his cock through.

“That's...very generous of you, Devin,” Alex said slowly.

Devin cupped Anna's chin. “What do you think, Anna? Does that sound good?”

“Yes, Master. Thank you.” She gave him a timid smile.

He stroked her cheek. “You'll live close by me,” he said softly, giving her another gentle smile. “I'll have to come visit you often.”

He leaned down and kissed her, his lips enveloping hers. His fingers trailed down her neck before he pulled her up into his lap and cupped her breast.

“You should mark her, Alex,” Devin said, pushing her breast up and bending down to kiss the top of it. She leaned her head back and sighed. He loved how responsive she was. He pulled her dress down to reveal her left breast. “This nipple is free.”

“Elder-Mistresses aren’t supposed to be pierced,” Alex responded coldly.

Devin rolled the nipple between his fingers. “I'm sure the others would understand. Elder-Mistresses aren’t usually slaves.” He pinched her nipple and she moaned. “Masters are supposed to mark their slaves. You can't deny that.”

“
Ja
, that is true.” Alex sighed. “Do you have a place I can do it?” he asked without emotion.

Anna looked over at him, startled. She clearly wasn't looking forward to another piercing session. Alex looked back at her impassively. She blinked and looked down at her hands.

Devin chuckled. “Of course. You can do it in her room if you'd like. Or here.”

“Her room will be fine.” Alex stood.

“I'll have Ian bring the piercer to you in her room. You know how to get back to her room, correct?”

“Of course,” Alex said in a short tone.

“Yes, you would remember. You must have an uncanny knack for remembering where things are.”

“It does tend to be beneficial in...what I do.”

Devin wondered if Anna knew her new Master was a highly trained killer. “Of course it is.” He pushed her off his lap and stood, looking at Alex. “When did you want to set her up in the apartment?”

Alex stood as well and smiled slightly. “It’s ready for her whenever she is. I’d like to take her to it this morning.”

“You took her from me last night. I want her before she leaves.”

“Her car is at her apartment.”

“I’ll drop her off at your place on my way home,” Devin said with a shrug.

“When?”

“When I’m done with her,” Devin growled. He needed to get rid of this man soon.

“I want her at my home by dinner. I’ll take her to her apartment tomorrow.”

“Watch it, Elder-Son. I am still your superior.”

Alex narrowed his eyes, making Devin thankful once again of the bond between him and Anna.

“You’re lucky you’re bonded to her,” he said in a low voice.

Anna returned to her room with Alex. He instructed her to undress and lie down on the bed as he walked into the bathroom. A moment later she heard the water running.

Anna thought about the conversation between Alex and Devin. An apartment and car of her own? It sounded wonderful and terrifying at the same time. Shame threatened to rear its ugly head as she thought about being a “kept woman,” but the truth couldn’t be denied. Alex and Devin owned her. She belonged to them. She needed to do as they asked. It could have been worse. A lot worse.

She sighed in happiness as she remembered she would be allowed to dance full time again. If nothing else, being a kept woman would allow her to do the one thing that made her happy deep down inside.

Her smiled faded, though, as she thought about the impending piercings. Why had Alex been so upset about the idea of piercing her? She already had been pierced the night before, what were a few more?

What was an Elder-Mistress? Was that what Alex was referring to when he said she didn’t belong here? But if she was the mistress of an Elder, where else would she belong?

She reached behind for the zipper, but couldn't find it. She moved desperately, trying different positions. Alex would be angry if she didn’t obey him. The bathroom door opened and she whimpered.

Alex walked up behind her and she trembled. He put his hands gently on her shoulders.

“Shh,
Schatzi
,” he whispered.

He unzipped her dress and kissed her shoulder as the dress fell to the ground. Her eyes closed as his lips touched her skin, savoring the touch for a moment, but she grew afraid and began to tremble again.

“Anna, I don’t want you to be afraid of me,” he murmured against her hair. His hands rested on her upper arms and he slid them down to her hands, intertwining his fingers with hers. “I’m not angry with you.” He brought her hand up to his lips and kissed her palm.

She leaned back against him, eyes still closed. His lips trailed down her hand and to the sensitive inner skin of her wrist.

Anna sighed as he sucked her inner wrist and brought his other hand down to her stomach and pressed her back against him. His hard cock pressed against her back and she swallowed nervously. Maybe he'd let her please him at last. She wanted to show him how grateful she was for his kindness downstairs.

She turned towards him and looked up into his eyes with longing. “Please, Master....”

He looked at her, eyes unreadable. Her heart leapt for joy when he gave her a slight smile and nodded.

“Would you like to sit?” she asked, trying to keep her voice from trembling with excitement. She motioned to the chair by the window. Some men liked to stand, lording their authority over her.

Alex nodded stiffly and she led him over to the chair. He sat down and stroked her hair as she nervously settled between his feet. She looked up adoringly at him, both relieved and excited that he was going to let her please him at last.

Her hand trembled as she worked to free his cock and then sucked in a sharp breath. He was...huge. Absolutely the largest cock she'd ever seen, and she'd seen a lot of them. He exhaled through pursed lips as she wrapped her hand eagerly around his shaft. Her fingers didn’t meet her thumb.

She looked up at him, both afraid and excited. His eyes were dark and he looked at her with such intensity she could feel it. She smiled nervously and looked back down at the cock in her hand, biting her lip and figuring out the best way to handle his size.

Not surprisingly, he had the double-ring piercing of the Brotherhood. The veins running along his length were almost rigid and he throbbed in her hand. She studied him for a moment and then leaned forward to take him into her mouth.

Alex groaned as she sucked on his tip for a few seconds before pushing her head down further over his head. He gasped. It wasn’t easy, but she pushed even lower and he filled her mouth, her jaw stretching to its limit. But he was her Master. She had to please him. No, she wanted to please him. Her tongue swirled along the underside, savoring his taste. She moaned in pleasure and he groaned again.

When the tip of his cock reached her throat, a good portion of him still remained outside. She took a deep breath and pushed down, swallowing him down.

He exclaimed loudly in German and grabbed fistfuls of her hair. She swallowed again and again, then began to pull back, half afraid he wouldn’t let her, but she needed to breathe. She pushed forward again, quickly, trying to get as much of him inside her mouth as she could. She swallowed and pushed several times until he was quite a ways down her throat and almost completely inside.

He moaned so loudly she almost jumped.
“Ja, Schatzi. Ja.
” He massaged her head and moaned again.

She pulled back for a breath and then swallowed him down again. Every time she swallowed, he moaned loudly and tightened his grip on her hair.

He allowed her to control her movements as she continued to swallow him and pull back when she needed to breathe, grateful for his kindness.

She heard his breathing start to shallow; he was close to release. His head fell back and his hands tensed in her hair. She took a good portion of him in and sucked as hard as she could and used her hand to stroke his lower shaft up and down. She just couldn’t do it all with her mouth. His hips flexed as he groaned loudly, emptying himself into her mouth. She eagerly swallowed everything he gave her.

As his breathing slowed, his only movement was his hand caressing the nape of her neck. She rested her head on his thigh, cock still in her mouth. She wouldn’t move until he moved her off him.

He exhaled slowly and pulled her up into his lap, wrapping his muscular arms around her. She laid her head on his shoulder and stroked his chest.

“Did I please you, Master?” she whispered.

“
Ja, Schatzi.
You are incredible.”

Anna beamed at the compliment. “Thank you, Master.”

He stroked her hair until there was a knock at the door a few minutes later.

“
Herein
,” Alex called.

Ian opened the door and walked inside. He and Alex looked at each other for a minute. She couldn't understand what was being expressed between them, but she didn't sense the hatred between them that she'd sensed between Alex and Devin.

Ian held up the piercing gun. “I apologize for taking so long, my lord. I was trying to locate the proper rings.”

Alex nodded. “Anna, go lie down on the bed,” he commanded softly.

Anna obeyed and lay back on the bed, trembling slightly. Alex came and sat down on the bed next to her.

“My lord, would you like...me to locate some pain reliever for her?” Ian asked in a low voice.

Alex studied Ian for a moment. “Would your Master allow that?”

Ian cleared his throat. “You are her Master as well.”

They looked at each other for another moment. “Would you please locate some pain reliever for her?” Alex asked with a slight smile on his face.

Anna glanced between the two men. Didn't Ian just ask Alex if he wanted him to go find some?

“Yes, my lord.” Ian bowed and left the room.

Alex watched the door close, then turned back to Anna and brushed the hair away from her face. “You are a very special woman, Anna.” He examined the piercer in his hands and looked pleased, then looked back at her. “I hate to have to do this to you, but Devin is right. I have to mark you. If I don't....” He shook his head. “I can't
not
do it, Anna.”

“It's all right, Master. You don’t have to justify yourself.”

He grimaced. “I don't want to cause you pain,” he said softly. He leaned down and kissed her cheek. “You've been hurt enough.” He sat up suddenly. “I’ll be back in a minute. May I use your yard?”

She blinked, confused. “Of course, Master.”

He gave her a sad smile, then went outside and made a phone call. He left the door open slightly, but spoke in German and she couldn't understand his conversation. He looked upset, but not angry.

Ian returned a few minutes later. He gave her a small smile. “Hasn’t done it yet?”

She shook her head. “He's outside.”

Ian looked out to where Alex was pacing outside. “Too bad I don’t speak German.” He smiled at her and handed her two brown tablets and a glass of water. “If you take them now, they'll kick in sooner.”

She smiled gratefully at him and took the pills, wondering at his kindness. Jack never allowed pain medicine and she never got sick. She swallowed them and took a drink of water, then lay back down on the bed and looked at Ian. He was watching her carefully.

Alex walked back in the room. “Did you find some?” he asked Ian.

“Yes, my lord. She just took them.” He glanced at Alex. “I'll wait in the hallway and when you're done, I’ll let Devin know.”

“
Danke
, Ian. It shouldn't take too long.” Alex smiled gently down at her and took a deep breath. “Better to get it over with now.”

Ian gave a slight bow and then left the room, closing the door behind him.

Alex sat on the bed next to her and cupped her cheek with his hand. The gesture soothed her and she relaxed. He looked so reluctant to do what he had to do.
