The Girl He Marked by Laila Callaway novel Chapter 2

I have to admit, he looks gorgeous in his black jeans and white shirt, open at the collar to reveal hard, tanned skin and just a hint of his black ink. He takes our order and then collects the menus, his hands deliberately brushing over mine. I snap my hand back and fumble for my handbag.

'I'm just gonna nip to the toilet,' I mutter, standing up on shaky legs and teetering in my heels to the bathroom.

I curse as I realize the toilets are down two flights of stairs and a long corridor. I grip the handrail and mentally scold myself for wearing such high heels tonight. With great effort, I make it to the bathroom.

I fix my lipstick in the mirror and pat down my hair, realizing that this is the second time I've been forced to calm myself down in the toilet as a result of Rixon. Once I've recovered, I step out only to bump into someone.

'Oops, sorry.' I look up and scowl as I see Rixon's smug face.

'Better watch where you're going, sweetheart, wouldn't want you to get lost down here,' he whispers gruffly, my eyes widen as he pushes me backward, into some sort of closet and shuts the door behind us.

The only light is a single bulb hanging above us, somehow it makes him look even more dangerous and attractive.

'Let me out of here, my parents will get suspicious,' I complain but he silences me with a kiss that makes my fingers curl into his hair.

'Better be quick then,' he grunts as he deftly lifts my dress and pulls my thong down.

'What are you doing' I hiss, my hands moving to stop his, but the second he pushes two fingers inside of me, my hands freeze in their protest.

'S—stop,' I stutter, my eyes closing as he scissors his fingers and begins pressing against my g—spot.

'Not until you come,' he breathes in my ear, kissing down my neck. I gasp as he picks up the pace.

'Why are you doing this' I manage to force the words out, but I make no move to stop him as the pleasure builds.

'Because you're in denial that we're meant to be together, so I'm proving to you that you know this is right and that you want this,' he growls, his husky voice only increasing my desire. 'You can tell me you don't want this, that you don't want me, but we both know you'd be lying baby.'

I squeeze my eyes shut tighter, angry that his words are true. I do want him.

'I want you inside me,' I mumble quietly, knowing that he can hear. His fingers pause momentarily before speeding up again.

'No, this is about you,' he tells me, but I ignore him and fumble for his jeans, he goes to stop me, but I push his hands away.

'You want me to come Well, this is what I need,' I tell him, my eyes meeting his dark ones.

He nods, a small, subtle nod, but I see it and hurriedly undo his jeans, pulling them down with his boxers. I step apart, spreading my legs as he lifts me up by my waist, wrapping my thighs around him and locking my ankles. I inhale sharply as he lines up then pushes slowly inside me. I resist closing my eyes, wanting to look at him as he fills me.

'This is going to have to be quick baby, okay' He asks and I grin at him, it's all the confirmation he needs as he begins to pound into me at an incredible speed.

The constant press of him against me rubs my clit and within seconds I'm falling apart around him, he kisses me to muffle our moans. It's only when I come down from my high and he pulls out that I realize he didn't come.

'You're not sitting at dinner with your parents whilst I drip out of you babe,' he says and before he can protest, I drop to my knees and take him in my mouth.

He hisses and grips my hair, guiding me up and down on his cock. I shield my teeth with my lips and suck hard. It doesn't take long to have him releasing himself in my mouth and I swallow eagerly.

Only moments later, we've sorted ourselves out and exited the closet. I spray a little perfume from my handbag to mask our scents.

I straighten my clothing and grimace at the thought of my thong, which is in Rixon's pocket.

Rixon finds a waitress and tells her that I've got lost and need directions back to my table, he winks at me, and I play along, apologizing to the waitress.

'Here you are, Miss.'

She guides me to my table and my parents look relieved as I sit down. I put on my best actress skills.

'Oh, my Goddess. It's like a maze down there, I got so lost and had to get that waitress to help me, I'm so embarrassed,' I gush, and they both laugh at me, believing everything.

I hurriedly gulp down some wine to rid the taste of Rixon in my mouth.

You're such a dirty hoe Lexi.

'Oh, dear, I was going to go to the loo as well, but I think I'll hold it,' Mum says and I nod.

'I would, I honestly got so lost down there,' I lie.

As we eat our dinner, I wonder how I've become the sort of person that lies to her family and friends.

I catch Rixon's eye across the restaurant, he makes a V with his fingers and sticks his tongue between them. My face goes completely red, and he grins at me.

His smile changes his face completely, he suddenly looks cheeky and charming, rather than dark, dangerous and brooding.

I realize that he has made me the sort of girl that lies to everyone she cares about, and worse, I don't mind doing it for him, he's worth it.

I turn back to my parents and try to regain some control over my evening.
