Her eyebrows shot up and she stopped in front of the desk. “Do I want to know how you got them?”
“Well…” I trailed off, my mind slipping back to last night.
“Fuck, Nirah.” His head rolled back and I moaned, the glint of the shiny silver office key catching my attention.
His hips pumped back and forth as I moaned, reaching back to grab his arm.
I threw my other arm across the desk, my palm landing on the key before I purposefully pushed everything off. With the key in my fist I allowed that arm to dangle off the edge, using my free hand to dig my nails into the soft wood. Don’t drop the key, Nirah.
“Actually.” Silvia raised her hand. “I don’t want to know.”
I chuckled. “You were the one who said my blow jobs were amazing.”
“Ew.” She grimaced. “And why did we need to come to his office? What’s going on? What if they catch us?”
“One. He’s not home and I’m his wife. I’m allowed to be in his office. If they see you here, we’ll say that you were leaving and simply saying goodnight.”
She nodded. “I can work with that.” Sinking into the chair in front of me, she leaned forward.
“And the office?”
“Well I’m certain it’s the only room in this house that isn’t bugged. Or possibly have hidden cameras.”
“You think he…?” She trailed off, moving her pointer in a circle.
“Possibly.” I shrugged. “He knows too much. Plus, I doubt he’d want any business he does in here to accidentally get out or leaked.”
She nodded in agreement and understanding.
“I also stole one of his guns,” I whispered and her eyes widened. “We have to get out of here, Silvia.”
“Nirah…”
“I know.” I cut her off as I stood. Rounding the desk, I sat down beside her. “It’s risky. But what choice do we have?”
“And Nereus?”
I shook my head. “He doesn’t have Nereus, I’m sure of it. And he didn’t kill him either.”
“Are you sure about this?”
“I have to get you out of here—”
“We have to get out of here.” She took my hands in hers. “Nirah, promise me. Promise me that you won’t do anything stupid and that you’ll leave with me.”
Goosebumps erupted across my skin. She knew me too well. If there was even the slightest chance that she could get away but I couldn’t, I’d take it in a heartbeat.
Chewing the inside of my cheek I shook my head. “I can’t promise that.”
“Nirah—”
“You don’t deserve this, Silvia.”
“And neither do you. We’re either leaving together… or I’m not leaving at all.”
I exhaled a shaky breath, my vision turning blurry.
“You’re my girl. I can’t leave you behind.”
