Drive Me Wild

Chapter 28 - Abigail

My body ached and my muscles protested with every movement I made. I didn't realise how much work it took to learn self-defence. It probably didn't help that I let Duke chuck me around like some rag doll.

This morning, I had woken up snuggled in Duke's warmth. Secretly, I hoped that he wouldn't wake up any time soon so that I could stay there for longer. There was something very comforting about sleeping with Duke. It was like all my worries could be whisked away for a while and I was finally safe. Ever since finding out Mason was in trouble with the Bratva, a constant unease was present in my stomach. I refused to tell Duke as this wasn't his problem. I can't rely on him for everything.

"Good morning," Duke's deep raspy, sleepy voice says as he plants a gentle kiss on my head.

"Good morning." I reply, catching his mouth in an intense kiss.

Lately, we had been getting closer to each other. It made me nervous but at the same time, I was happy. Whether it would last was another question.

Ever since I had been kicked out by my dad, I had obtained abandonment and trust issues. I couldn't even rely on Mason to take care of me forever.

"Hey, where did you go?" Duke cups my cheek.

"Nowhere important." I lie, trying to smile it off.

"It is important if it's got you looking like that."

It was impossible to keep up with all of Duke's moods. One minute he was calm and collected and another minute he was fierce and protective. Most days I struggled to keep up with it. At the same time, I loved his fierce and protective side. It made me feel wanted and cherished, something I hadn't felt in a very long time.

"Please, don't worry about it."

I try to distract Duke by going in to kiss him again, but he wasn't having it. He immediately swings me underneath him and pins my arms above my head.

"Start talking." He demands.

"There's nothing to talk about."

"Don't test me, Abbie."

"Or what?" I smirk, giving him a knowing look.

"You know exactly what Abbie."

Seeing as the self-defence lessons from yesterday was still fresh in my mind, I could remember how to get out of this hold. I know that it would catch Duke off guard and hopefully get me out from under him. There was something about his presence that allured me in and made me forget everything.

Slowly and carefully, I placed my feet flat on the ground without trying to cause suspicion. I needed to try and gain enough momentum to buck my hips up and knock him off me. What would happen next and where I would go was still to be figured out but maybe he would be too impressed with me to chase me down.

We were still gazing intensely at each other. Duke was waiting for my snarky reply. Quickly, I bucked my hips up with as much force as I could muster.

"Fuck!" Duke groans out.

I must have accidentally kneed him in the balls as his hands immediately went to nurse his Dick. Out of all the outcomes I expected to happen, this wasn't one of them. It wasn't like I was going to escape, I just wanted him off me so I wouldn't have to answer his questions.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to knee you in the balls!" I panic.

"You're going to be in big trouble once I get my hands on you, my little waitress," Duke says with a warning laced in his tone.

"But I didn't mean to!" I try to defend myself.

"Your apologies are going to fall on deaf ears, Abbie."

I decided then and there that the best hiding place possible would be in the bathroom. There was a lock on the door which meant I could be safe and secure inside. The only problem I hadn't thought of was how long I could be there for. I secretly hoped that Duke would be needing to go to work today.

"You can't hide from me in the bathroom Abbie," Duke warns, as I close the door.

Sure enough, Duke was right. I had never used the lock on the bathroom before as I didn't see the need for it. Now I was wishing that I had at least tried to see if it worked. I was now cornered in a bathroom with no way to escape. Duke was going to get into the bathroom in no time!

It was a stupid plan, but I decided to stand in front of the door and dig my heels into the ground. My strength was nowhere near as good as Duke's so I knew that I couldn't hold the door back. If anything, I was going to get hurt.

Then and there, I decided it would be better to change my plan. I could jump in the shower and seduce Duke instead! It wasn't too difficult to turn him on and distract him. All men like a good pair of ass and tits.

Quickly, I strip off my small nightgown and turn the shower on. It felt like years before the water warmed up but eventually I could step in. It had been a couple of minutes since I had kicked Duke in the nuts but usually, it wouldn't take this long for him to recover from it. He was most likely trying to build up tension and nerves. The only problem I could think of was Duke hadn't told me how to defend myself against a man running at me. I was very defenceless at this point.

"If you come here willingly I'll make your punishment less bad." He tries to reason.

I wasn't having any of it. My so-called 'punishment' would be bad anyway. He could come to get me himself.

"Last chance Abbie."

There was a strong warning tone in his voice now. I might have been making things much worse for myself, but I secretly loved the thrill of 'being in trouble'. I'm sure if Duke saw me naked in the shower, he would soon change his mind about punishing me.

Loud footsteps made their way over to the bathroom door, not long after the door was swung open and slammed against the wall. Steam was starting to fill the room so only the silhouette of Duke could be seen.

"Well, this is unexpected."

I continue showering, hoping that he will join me. Promptly, the shower door opens bringing cool air in. My nipples immediately start to pebble, and goosebumps rise all over my skin. I slowly turn over to Duke to see a smug grin plastered all over his face. He was enjoying this weird form of torture.

"Either close the door or get in." I challenge, turning away from him again. It was a very risky move, but I didn't care.

"Oh little girl, you are going to regret that." Duke breathes out.

The shower door closes, and a large, muscled body presses up against mine. I try to continue like normal, pretending that Duke isn't there but it soon becomes difficult when a hard rod presses into my back.

A pair of large hands slowly wrap around my waist and pull me in causing a moan to slip out of my mouth.

"Is there something wrong?" He preens.

"I'm fine. Just trying to shower."

Duke could see right through my lies, my pebbled nipples told it all. He wouldn't even have to feel me to know how soaked I was.

"Are you really Abbie? Or are you just trying to test me?"
