Now open your eyes

I grabbed Leigh’s hand and yanked her back inside through the door, slamming it behind me. “What the fuck have you done?”

Leigh’s hand rested over my bicep, and she looked up at me through sincere eyes. “I want to help you.”

“You could get yourself raped or killed. You don’t know what these people are capable of. And how did you end up in this mess?”

Leigh seemed insulted, and she dropped her arm. “I was looking for you! The last time I saw you was here and Dex promised you’d come back if I helped him. And you’re back. You came back.”

“Check that pussy, Oliver,” James called out, coming through the door with a gun in his waistband.

I snapped my gaze at him. “Are you his bitch now?”

Ignoring me, he slapped a pill over the counter and shoved an open beer into my chest. “This is to help you through the night, mate.” And I contemplated my options, which was close to none. I slammed the pill into my mouth and chased it with the beer. James slapped my shoulder before leaving, and I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand.

“You really want to do this?” I asked, turning to Leigh and raising a brow. “You’ll let me touch you? You’ll let me drag you into this mess? Risk your life? All for what?”

“I trust you. You won’t let anything happen to me.”

We walked into the bathroom, and I locked the door behind me and took out my phone, scrolling through Google search. “Take off your bottoms,” I ordered Leigh, typing a question I’d never thought I’d ask into my phone and wondering how the fuck I was going to explain this to Mia. “How was your day?” “Great, babe. Had to check a girl’s hymen, how was yours?”

After reading over the two-finger test with vision already blurring, I turned back around and glanced up from my phone to see Leigh standing shyly, completely naked. A perky set of breasts stared back at me, hard pink nipples, and teenage curves. “You didn’t have to,” I clutched my hipbones and dropped my head. “Never mind, just come here.” I tucked my phone back inside my pocket.

Leigh stepped forward, her head coming to my chest. I wanted to get this over with, and picked her up at the waist and set her over the sink. Looking over her young skin, I shook my head. “Fuck, I can’t do this.” I backed away and pinched the bridge of my nose. It was wrong on so many levels. Mia, first and foremost. Legal, but still only seventeen. And a virgin, nonetheless. “I need to make a call,” I mumbled, shoving my hand into my pocket.

Dialing Mia’s number, she answered on the second ring, “Picasso, here.”

“I’m in trouble,” I admitted.

“What’s wrong?”

For starters, a naked girl was staring at me. “It’s not over, Mia.” I wanted to scream as soon as the words tumbled out. “Fuck, I have this girl here. They want to use her because she’s a virgin—”

“Leigh,” the virgin piped up, and I narrowed my eyes.

“What does he want you to do?” Mia asked on the other end.

“Stuff you wouldn’t be proud of.”

Mia sighed. “Whatever it is, I’ll forgive you. Just do what you have to and get home to me in one piece.”

I fisted the phone and wiped my face into my shirt, turning around. “I’m on some kind of drug right now,” I wasn’t going to lie to Mia, “I don’t trust myself with this position I’m in.”

“Ollie, I don’t want to know. Just remember, it doesn’t mean anything.”

I drew in a deep breath. “I love you,” came out upon an exhale.

“I know, but I’d rather you tell me in person.”

“I’ll see you soon.” I clicked the phone and tucked it back into my jeans and narrowed my eyes at the body sitting before me. Leigh was just another battle I had to conquer to get closer to freedom. A conquest.

Leigh tilted her head, worry consuming her eyes. “Will this hurt?”

“I’m not going to hurt you,” I promised.

“Will it feel good?”

“Leigh, I won’t be able to concentrate if you keep talking.”

“I’m scared it’s going to hurt. At least try and make it feel good, Oliver.” Leigh looked up at me through dark lashes. “Be gentle and make me feel good. Please.”

“Okay,” I said, waving her down to the edge of the sink, “but most likely, Ghost will do the same.” I slammed my hands on both sides of her, and lifted my head until our eyes met. “Have you ever been touched?”

Leigh shook her head, her blonde hair falling over her pert breasts. She had no idea what she’d gotten herself into with the Links, but I couldn’t deny her i

“Does it look okay?” Leigh asked. “You keep staring at my fa

It was different. “Your fa

She bit her lip. “That feels good.”

“Please, let’s do this without talking.”

Leigh shrugged. “I know you’re not into this. Into me. I just wished the first time someone touched me cared, at the very least. It’s fine. You can just shove your fingers inside me and get it over with.”

She didn’t value herself, which made me pity her. She didn’t deserve this. “I’m not going to do that.” I used two fingers to spread her pussy lips apart and soaked my thumb in my mouth before ru

Someone pounded over the door, and Leigh recoiled, slamming her legs shut. “What’s the verdict, Masters?” Dex yelled, and I hung my head.

“Bugger off,” I yelled back, dizzy and high from the drugs. The room grew hot, and I yanked off my hoodie. Leaning over Leigh, I pushed her stiff thighs apart again. “You have to relax.” I cocked my head, knowing I’d have to work her up all over again. “Pretend it’s just you and me right now,” she was so tiny over the counter, and I gripped her thighs and pulled them apart, revealing herself to me again, “and we’re somewhere else other than here,” I pressed my fingertip against her opening, “that I’m someone you fancy, yeah?”

Leigh bucked her hips forward.

“That’s right,” I placed a palm over her pelvis to keep her still and pull her skin up, working her opening with one finger. “but don’t get too excited or you’ll hurt yourself.” I offered a smile, and she sank backward with dark eyes on mine, rolling her hips forward. Her scent was the opposite of Mia’s, and I missed my girl. I missed Mia’s heat, her taste, the way I felt inside her. My stomach turned, pushing my finger a centimeter through her tight entrance, Leigh cried out, and I lowered my palm over her clit, rubbing up and down to take her mind off it. Surely, it couldn’t hurt that bad, but I wouldn’t know. “I’ll have to get one more finger in there, and you’re still not wet enough.”

“It hurts.”

“I’m sorry, I’m trying to be gentle.” But fuck me.

“Lick me,” she suggested.

“No,” I scoffed, lowering my head and spitting on her sex. “I kiss my girl with this mouth.” I moved my palm up and down over her flesh, soaking her folds with my saliva, and Leigh whimpered, grinding against my hand. She was loving what I was doing. The girl was playing me.
