The Croatian Crime (Femme #1)

Chapter 20

Mia Duncan's POV

"Oh. My. God. That was insane. Insane," I said as I was looking straight at the ceiling of the bedroom. Liam was nuzzling my neck as we cuddled after burning a few calories throughout the night. I was panting but also smiling happily as I can finally see the stars that my colleagues were talking about.

"What are you thinking, love?" Liam asked as he kissed my ear and pulled me closer to him. I was chuckling at his caveman style in the bedroom that I just let him do what he wanted.

"Come on, tell me those secrets," he said as he caressed my flat stomach.

"I...I...I have something to tell you," I said as I rolled to my side to face him. My breasts were in full view of Liam's eyes.

"What is it?" He asked as he was fondling my breasts back and forth. I can feel my nipples instantly hard against his caress.

"I found out the truth about your parents' killer and your father's true identity," I whispered to him. I was waiting for him to lash out at me. I looked at him and he urged me to continue.

"And?" He asked. I sighed as I don't want to tell the truth that might kill our feelings for each other after battering for so long.

"Mia, tell me. I think I can handle it," Liam said chuckling as he saw my reaction before he shut up completely.

"My uncle was the one that killed your father and... and..." I said as I was looking at my fidgeting hands.

"And your father was one of the founders of the organization that I work for now," I said as I looked into his eyes. He was silent as I looked into his emerald orbs.

"I'm sorry," I whispered as I caressed his face. He was looking at our tangled sheets before his dark eyes were looking into mine.

"I've already known about my father and your uncle's involvement in the organization. They were colleagues back in college and best friends as well. My mother was the one that introduced them but it was my father who married her. Your uncle trusted that my mother would be happy with Layton Hunt, but," he said as he was getting up from our cuddling.

"He was also the reason my mum died," he said as he gripped his knuckles until they turned white. I held his hands and I kissed them before putting my head on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry," I whispered to him. I held his shoulder and his hands.

"I did not know that part. They only have the killings that your father did and my uncle was the one that killed him," I said as I was caressing his broad shoulder.

"He went crazy after his taste of bloodlust and killing. He went out of control and my mum has to suffer it all. She did not want me to worry, that's why she send me to boarding school and when they went on their 5th honeymoon, they..." Liam's voice was breaking before I took him into my arms.

"Shh, it's okay, you don't have to say it, I understand. And I'm sorry," I whispered into his ear as I was caressing his hair and he was holding me tightly as he hid away with the sobs and the tears and I just sat there, taking it all in.

*****

After that little session we have in the bedroom after the act, Liam was acting better than usual. He got up and took me into the shower for our next act.

"You need to learn how to satisfy a man, Mia," he said as he had his wicked way with my body. Liam proceeded to kneel before me before he was spreading my thighs with a wicked smile on his lips. I did not understand what he was doing at first before his tongue, a very wicked thing, was touching the forbidden part of my anatomy.
