Alyssa

After King left, there was no way I was going back to sleep when his cum was leaking out of me. Instead, I took a cold shower to try to calm the throbbing between my legs. How could I possibly want more after that? When my body is already sore from the rough, brutal way he fucked me the past two nights?

I literally feel so ashamed. I begged him to let me come, and then to make things worse, I screamed his name.

What is wrong with me? Ugh, I need help!

Does that asshole think he can just sneak into my bed, touch my pussy whenever he wants to, and I'm just going to...let him?

I mean, yeah that's exactly what happened, but that's because I did lose that bet with him, and I also wasn't prepared to kick his ass.

Next time I will be.

After the shower, that does little to relieve my growing sexual frustration, I throw on some clothes and head downstairs. Zuri is sleeping on the couch beside Niko, her tiny body looking even more previous against the massive frame of the man sitting next to her. When he sees me, he grins. "How was your nap, sweet girl?"

I blush. Did he hear anything? I don't want him or anyone else on this planet to know that I've had sex with King, not once but twice now. And I...enjoyed it. It was the best fucking sex I've ever had.

Not that I will ever admit that aloud.

"It was fine," I mutter, walking over to check on Zuri. I breathe a sigh of relief when I see her chest steadily rising and falling. Niko watches me, his eyebrows pinched together. "Are...are you checking to make sure she's breathing?" he asks, incredulously.

I sit down in King's chair, sinking into the soft leather. "Yep, SIDS can happen up to one year old. The first few months, I barely slept even when she was sleeping because I was worried she'd stop breathing in her sleep."

"SIDS?"

"Sudden Infant Death Syndrome."

His eyes widen. "That's insane."

I swallow hard, just staring at my little girl. "It is. Not only did I have to worry about her father killing her, I had to worry about her suddenly passing away in her sleep. Life is so unfair sometimes."

If I could put her in a protective bubble where I could shield her from the world, I would.

While Niko and I spent the day together, I opened up a little about what I went through with Isaac. King had already told him why I was here anyway. So, I wanted to have some control over the narrative.

Niko's blue eyes soften. "Well, you're not alone anymore, Alyssa. You have Gray and the rest of us now, and we'll help you in any way that you need."

I don't know if I'm buying what he's trying to sell me. Why does he care so much about me and Zuri? What does he get out of it? He better not be expecting the same thing King did. I'm still pissed that he blackmailed me just to get in my pants, and like an idiot, I'm still here in his house, allowing him to convince himself that I would willingly come to him for sex.

I'd rather show up at the house and surrender myself to Isaac than do that. Maybe that's what I deserve anyway. King made me a cheater. I know there was no way we were going to be able to save our marriage, but I didn't want to have any part in why it was destroyed.

Though, the second he hit me on our wedding night, it should've been over then.

"What's troubling you so much, sweet girl?" Niko's voice snaps me from my thoughts, his concern piercing the haze of my emotions.
