Chapter 255: Chapter 255: Compensations
He wrapped a heavy blanket around her shoulders, pulling her into a firm, steady embrace to help ground her.
"You’re safe here, Jessica," said Alexander, his voice low and calm as he lightly rubbed her arm. "Nobody knows about this location. The doors are reinforced, and I’ll be right here the entire night."
"I just can’t stop shaking," said Jessica, leaning her head against his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart. "Every time I close my eyes, I just see those men."
"They’re gone, and they won’t ever be coming back," said Alexander, tightening his grip slightly to offer comfort. "Just focus on my voice. Take deep, slow breaths."
They stayed like that for a long time in the dim light of the sleeping room. Gradually, Jessica’s breathing slowed, her body relaxing against his until she appeared to fall fast asleep. Alexander carefully adjusted his position, leaning his head back against the cushion, his mind immediately racing with dark thoughts.
Even though Marcus had explicitly told him to get close to his mother and sister to give them a renewed sense of security and a reason to live, Alexander couldn’t shake the memory of the warehouse. He had witnessed exactly what his friend was capable of when pushed to the edge. The cold cruelty of the Hellfire potion and the devastation at the facility proved that Marcus was an unstable monster. It wasn’t an exaggeration to admit to himself that he felt a deep, lingering sense of fear toward his own comrade. If Marcus ever discovered a single misstep, the consequences would be lethal.
Suddenly, a soft friction interrupted his thoughts.
Jessica’s hand, which had been resting casually against his torso, slowly slid down. Her fingers trailed over his thigh, her touch light but firm. Alexander froze, keeping his breathing steady as her hand moved higher up his leg, leaving no doubt that she was awake.
Her palm slid across his lap, locking directly over his groin, her fingers curling around the hard length of his shaft beneath the fabric of his trousers. With a slow motion, she reached up and pulled the metal tab of his zipper down, the sharp metallic sound cutting through the quiet room.
"What are you doing, madame?" asked Alexander, his voice dropping into a tight, strained whisper as he looked down at her.
Jessica opened her eyes, her gaze dark and focused on him as she shifted her body, kneeling on the bed between his legs.
"I know exactly what I am," said Jessica, her voice devoid of its previous hesitation as she reached inside his underwear, her bare fingers wrapping tightly around his erect skin. "I am nothing. I have no money, no status, and nothing of value to offer a man like you. This is the only thing I have to compensate you for everything you’ve done for us."
Alexander looked down at her where they lay on the mattress. "Don’t do this, Jessica," said Alexander, his hand catching her wrist, though his grip wasn’t tight enough to pull her away. "You don’t need to degrade yourself like this."
"I’m not degrading myself," said Jessica, looking up through her messy hair, her eyes intense as she tightened her bare fingers around his shaft, sliding her palm down the hot, leaking skin. "I actually want to do this. Unless you think I’m too old, or you don’t find me attractive at all."
She began to stroke him faster, the wet friction making a soft, distinct sound in the quiet bedroom.
"But I can feel how hard you are right now," said Jessica, a low, confident tone returning to her voice as she felt him twitch against her palm. "Your body isn’t lying to me. You want this."
Alexander let out a low groan, his fingers untangling from her wrist and burying themselves into her hair instead. He leaned up against the headboard, watching her as she shifted her position on the sheets, pulling herself closer until her breath hitched against his thigh.
"If you’re going to do it, then stop talking," said Alexander, his voice deep and rough as his hips flexed slightly against her hand.
Jessica didn’t answer with words. She leaned down, her warm lips parting as she slid her mouth over the wet tip of his length, taking him in with a deep, deliberate stroke. A heavy, wet gasp escaped her throat as her tongue swirled around the rim, her saliva lubricating the shaft as she moved her head up and down in a steady pace.
The bedroom filled with the slick, squelching sounds of her mouth working over him, mixed with Alexander’s increasingly ragged breathing.
"Fuck, Jessica," said Alexander, his knuckles turning white as he gripped the bedsheets, his head snapping back against the wall as the intense heat of her throat threatened to break his composure.
She pulled back with a wet pop, leaving him glistening in the dim light, and quickly crawled up his body, straddling his thighs. She reached down, guiding his rigid length directly against her dripping, swollen folds, rubbing him against her heat until she let out a loud, needy whimper.
"Take me," said Jessica, panting heavily as she aligned his tip with her opening and began to slowly lower her hips. "Fucking ruin me, Alexander. I need to forget everything else."
Alexander gripped her hips firmly, his large hands sinking into her flesh as he held her in place just above his rigid shaft.
"Are you sure about this, Jessica?" asked Alexander, his voice deep and rough, his dark eyes locked onto hers in the dim bedroom light.
Jessica didn’t answer with words. She slammed her hips down with a loud, echoing slap of flesh, burying his thick length inside her tight, dripping walls. A sharp, loud groan tore from the back of her throat as her eyes rolled back from the sheer force of the penetration.
"Don’t you feel how wet I am for you?" said Jessica, panting heavily as she began to ride him, her hips slamming down in a desperate rhythm that filled the room with slick, squelching sounds. "Ever since you rescued me, every single time you walked through that door, every time I looked at you... all I could think about was wanting you to drag me into that dark red room you have in the back and fuck me raw! But you never did anything, Alexander! You just left me starving, dripping wet and begging for your dick every night!"
