Cruel Crush, page 7
part #1 of Hidden Falls High Series
Summer
Everything Rachel said about River Millions was true. He was the perfect male human specimen when he had his clothes off.
“Like what you see?” River asked, his dark blue eyes on me as I sat down in front of a canvas, and began sketching him.
“I don’t know,” I said. “I have to take a closer look.” I walked over to him, taking him all in with my eyes before I reached out a hand to touch his muscular chest, running it up and down his perfect abs. “Thank you for being my nude model, River.”
“For you, Summer, anything. I love getting naked in front of you.”
My thigh brushed against his thick hardness, and he let out a groan. He grabbed my hand that was touching his chest, and pulled me close to him so my chest was touching his. He gulped as he took in my face with his hungry eyes. “You are driving me crazy, Summer,” he groaned.
“I am?” I asked.
“For weeks, you’ve been torturing me,” River said, pressing his nose into my hair and smelling me. His fingers dug in my hair, running through them as he leaned in. “I want you so bad, I have been harboring a hard-on for you for days.”
“Ouch,” I said softly. “That would be painful.”
“Not as painful than me not being about to show you that I’ve changed, Summer.”
“You have, how?”
“I don’t want to hurt you or scare you anymore, Summer.”
He pulled me so close, I could feel the tension all over his shoulders. “I don’t believe you, Riv,” I said. I looked him up and down. He was perfect. Almost surreal like a superhuman. The past couple of weeks since we found out we were in the same art class had given me a chance to get to know him better.
“I kept everything you gave me, Summer,” he said. “Everything is in my nightstand drawer. I look at everything at least twice every night before I take a shower. The red lace thongs…” he shudder. “The ring. The birthday card you sent me. The half-eaten licorice stick. I suck on it every night so I can get a taste of you. And the leather collar…Damn!” He came.
I reached down to grabbed him and massage him back to his fullness.
River closed his eyes, as I pumped him.
“I can’t believe I blew my load,” he hung his head down in shame.
“There, there,” I said resting his head on my shoulder as I pumped him.
“Does this feel better?”
“Incredible,” he said.
“Why? Don’t you get this all the time?” I asked.
“No, Summer, I don’t get this all the time. No one can have access to me, let alone touch my most intimate and sensual parts. No one but you, Summer. I’m only letting you touch me.”
“I want to believe you, River. I want to believe you truly want me, and only me.”
“God, I want you,” River said against my ear. “I take back anything I did that was mean or hurtful to you, Summer.”
“Are you going to try to kick me out of the Academy?
“No, not anymore, Summer,” River said. “I want you to stay. I need you to stay. You are the one person I want more than anyone to stay so I could see you everyday.”
“River, when I first came to this school, you wanted to make me drop out.”
“I did because of your late enrollment. Not because of you. It wasn’t your fault. And fuck, I regret all of it now. I don’t want to hurt you. And the thought of anyone hurting you just makes me want to kill them.”
“If you are lying about all of this and playing me for a fool to trust you and your word, I’d never forgive you.”
“Summer,” River dropped to his knees. “I’m begging you to give me a chance. I want to be with you. I want to date you. I want to kiss you all the time.” He got up and cupped my face in his hand.
“Like this?” I asked, barely touching my lips against his.
He let out a soft groan before kissing me back, hard with an unbridled pent up passion. “I’d dreamed about kissing you for so long.”
His tongue played with mine as he devoured my mouth, pulling me close. I was plastered against him when his hands reached down to cup the bottom of my butt, pulling me tight against his hard on.
“Summer,” he groaned. “I want more.” His hands fumbled with the button of my white jeans. Then they were pulling my jeans down and off of me. He reached over and lifted me from my waist and carried me to his bed in the middle of his room. “You have no idea how many times I’d play this in my head. The first time I get to have you.”
He laid me down comfortably and went down on his knees, while taking my ankles to pull me to his face. With a jerk of his hands, he tore my panties off. Then he was spreading me wide, as he lowered his head.
His wet tongue licked me across my folds first, flickering back and forth before he lowered his mouth over all of me and began eating me out.
I was moaning in ecstasy, arching my back, grabbing my breasts and pinching my nipples.
“Oh God, Summer,” River said. “You are so fucking sexy when you do that.” He ate me some more before licking me up my stomach to latch onto one of my breasts. His hands reached down to rub circles around my nub. “I’m going to pleasure you, just focus on you this time.”
“River,” I said, lost in all the sensations he was creating.
“Do you like this?” he asked hoarsely, plunging two fingers deep into me, hitting my G-spot then working me until I was grabbing the silk sheets of his bed with my fists.
“Yes,” I moaned.
“How about this?” he kept finger-fucking me but swirled his tongue around my nub.
“God, yes,” I screamed.
“Oh Summer,” River said. “My beautiful sexy girl. Cum for me.”
At that, I buckled against the palm of his hand which he pressed further against my nub and G-spot, before I exploded.
He bent down and began licking my juices, lapping it up before he joined me in bed to kiss me.
“You were so beautiful,” he said, kissing me again, and taking my hand into his.
His phone began ringing. He ignored it to wrap me into his chest to hold me while kissing my neck. “Do you know Summer, that in a matter of weeks, you’ve managed to turn my world around. Before meeting you, I only had one single focus in life, and that was to be groomed to take over my grandfather’s business. But then you came, and my body instantly came alive, wanting you, craving you. Art class? Who would have guessed I would be taking Art? But when it was the only class that had an open seat left on your class schedule, I took it so I could get close to you. At first, I only wanted to get close to you so I could pick on you, make your life at school so bad that you’d drop out. But as I got to know you, I couldn’t help liking you. Falling for you. Loving you, Summer.”
His phone began ringing again, and this time it was picked up on his computer system. His screen opened, and Lincoln was on screen.
“Hey, Riv,” Lincoln smiled. “Mission accomplished. On my end. How about you?”
“Could he see us?” I asked from the bed.
“No, the camera function is turned off,” River said. “We’re on mute, too.”
Lincoln went on. “Look who I’ve just bedded. And wait for it to get posted into some sites.”
I sat up while River sat up and tried to reach for the computer remote. He looked nervous suddenly.
The video was grainy, but you could see two people having sex. One was Lincoln, and the other was a girl with black hair in pigtails. Blue eyes. Her mouth was on his pierced dick taking him in. My heart sank, and I felt like the ground just dropped from me.
Rachel.
“Oh no he didn’t,” I said, getting up and getting dressed.
Lincoln went on. “You can show Summer this little tape of mine as we had planned, to get her to drop out of Hidden Falls now. Or we release this tape everywhere.” Lincoln smiled. “Mom would be proud of my first homemade sex tape. It’s how she got started.”
I looked over at River with a glare of pure hate.
“Summer,” he said, looking away. “It was planned a long time ago when we first wanted to get you to leave. Lincoln didn’t know I changed my mind.”
“You planned this? To hurt Rachel?” I looked away. “I can’t believe you. I can’t believe I started to trust you…to like you.”
River’s eyes widened. “You like me?”
He got up walk over to me, taking me into his arms and kissing me. “I’m so sorry about this, Summer. I really liked you too. I think I’m half in love with you. No, I’m in love with you.”
“You’re in love with me, yet you do this? So you and Lincoln plan on using this sex tape of Rachel to force me to leave my new school?” I said.
Lincoln’s face came close to the screen. He was laughing. “River, you diabolical asshole. Just remind me not to ever get onto your bad side. That sex tape of Rachel Donovan? You could use it to get back at Nat, now. Remembered how mad you were when he was the one chosen to become the President of the student body and of the Knights when you wanted it forever? Now you can blackmail him to step down from being President or you will release his little sister’s naughty video. I’m sure it would ruin the public image of Donovan Enterprises for a video of their little girl going down on me to go public.”
River smiled. It sent shivers down my spine with how calm he looked.
He finally found the remote to his computer. He turned on the volume and even allowed the camera to show us on screen.
“Oh, you have Summer in your room,” Lincoln said. He grinned a wicked grin. “You and Summer…you did the dirty? Jealous because I still want a threesome, but I can wait until next time.”
“Your timing was awful,” River said. “I was about to move into phase two of my seduction of Summer when your ugly face popped onscreen confessing to the sex tape and all the plans we have for it.”
I backed out of his arms and walked to the door of his bedroom.
River’s predatory eyes followed me. “Phase two of the seduction of Summer would’ve been fun. I went down on Summer for the warm up just now. Phase two would be of her going down on me. And we would be taping it.”
My heart and stomach sank.
“You thought you were seducing me, when it was the opposite that was happening,” River said. “I anticipated you going to use your charms on me and Lincoln but we’ve been around a few more times than you to know how a good revenge plan can be played.”
“Why?” I asked. “Why do you hate Nat so much? I don’t care what you think about me, but why hurt your best friend Nat?”
“Because he has everything,” River said. “He has the school wrapped around his fingers. He has a loving family. He has parents who think the world of him. He’s the perfect son, the perfect brother, and damn…he has your love even. No matter how hard I tried to get you to like me, you’d never love me like you love Nat.”
“What do you want me to do?” I asked. “How can I fix this so you’re happy, and we can leave Rachel out of it?”
River slammed into me so fast, I barely had time to react. He was on me, kissing me, undressing me. “Summer, I still want you.”
I tried to get out of his hold. “But I can’t,” I said. “Not after this. I can’t ever trust you again, River.”
River’s kisses against my neck, my collarbone, and even my lips became rougher, more demanding. “I want you, Summer. I’ve spent weeks jacking off to you. I want the real deal. I want to fuck you with my dick in you. I want to grind into you. Then I want you to take my hard dick into your mouth. To suck on me, to take me back deep until I cum into your mouth.”
“If I do, you won’t release the tape?” I asked. “You’d let Nat stay as President?”
“I won’t release the tape, but Nat can’t stay as President. He’d have to resign. Step down and let the Second-in-Command, me, to take his place.”
“And I’ll leave Hidden Falls,” I said. “You and the student body will get what they wanted…the New Girl leaving school.”
“You don’t have to, if I’m President,” River said. “You can stay because I’ll make a new rule to change the stupid student body demand of the Knights to fulfill their demands. I mean, we run the school, not the student body, and why must we Knights bend over backwards to stupid demands that can make no sense. Plus,” he reached out to run a finger down my chest. “I want you to stay and be at my beck and call whenever I want to be sucked or whenever I want sex. We can pretend to be a couple. You’re gorgeous, and you’ll make me look good.”
I shook my head. “Look, loyalty to my best friend only goes so far. I will not be your pretend girlfriend slash sex slave for however long just because you have a sex tape of my friend doing something she shouldn’t have done in the first place. Maybe it’ll change Rachel for the best if she knew you have a tape of her. But then again, Creep, if you release Rachel’s sex tape to the public, you are releasing a sex tape of a minor to the public. Do you understand the implication of that? Or do I have to spell it out for you?”
“They’re both under 18,” River said. “Consensual sex.”
“Yeah, I get it, teens have sex with teens these days, as long as it is consensual or they are both minors or they are both of age. But,” I said. “Having a video that goes public of underage participants…you will be arrested, dude.”
River’s face fell. “How did you get to be so smart?”
“Because I am, and I would never apologize for being a smart girl,” I said. “So, let’s renegotiate the terms. You do not have a sex tape that you could use against me, Nat, or Rachel. So you,” I shove my fingers to his naked chest. “Do not have anything over me or my friends. But I now have something over you. If you try to hurt Rachel or Nat or anyone close to me again, you will see a side of me that will haunt your darkest nightmares.”
“So what do you want of me?” River asked.
I opened his bedroom door a crack and said, “I’ll think about it.” I opened the door wider, and was surprised to see Nat standing there. Why was he there? Did he know about Rachel’s sex tape? How much did he hear about my conversation with River?
Nat just stood there, taking me all in with an expression of wonder, lust, and love. Then he spotted River behind me in the bedroom. Naked, hair disheveled, and the room reeking of sex.
Nat’s eyes darken, and he looked so angry, he could punch a man out. He rushed into River’s room, grabbed River by the shoulders, and threw a punch that went straight between River’s eyes, which knocked him completely out.
“Come on,” Nat said, taking my arm and walking us out quickly.
Chapter 13
Nat
I’ve never been more in love with Summer than at that moment I found her walking out River’s bedroom.
That girl had some brains on her on top of everything else. Figures when her mom is a tactical strategy leader, her aunt is Aunt Sookie, and her father was one of the top scientist in the world, but missing.
When the dumber-than-dirt Lincoln accidentally sent me the sex tape of Rachel and him by email, I nearly had a heart attack. Just what I needed after the whole kidnapping fiasco and finding the abductor working for us as a pretend domestic worker…an inside job.
I knew Lincoln didn’t have the brain capacity to plan the sex tape scenario so I headed straight to River’s house a few blocks away from Lincoln’s. And when Lincoln let out that River really had a thing for Summer…that’s when I knew keeping River on as a friend was not going to happen.
When we were out of River’s house and safely in Summer’s car, because I had stormed out of my house to Lincoln’s and then to River’s by foot earlier, I asked Summer to drive to The Pad, where we may get a chance to talk in private.
The police had arrived at my house to get Sally, who Aunt Sookie had knocked out. Aunt Sookie watched over Sally until the police arrived, and watched over Mom, who was the victim of Sally’s plot.
Maybe Aunt Sookie knew the same secret I was holding about Dad. Maybe she knew that could be the reason of Mom’s returning bouts of depression and bipolar disease.
We pulled up the driveway to The Pad, and walked in. It was dark, quiet, and peaceful…exactly what we both needed after the kind of day we’ve had.
“I’ll go make coffee,” Summer said. “You want some?”
“Sure,” I said. “Coffee sounds good.”
Summer deftly got the coffee pot going, while I went to get coffee mugs and creamer. After all these years, I knew what kind of coffee girl Summer was. She liked her coffee strong, flavorful, with cream and sugar.
I liked mine black with just a bit of sugar.
