Dreams Outgrow Rooms Built From Other Peoples Fears by Niro Mason 60

60 Ravaged Lips 

An exquisite moan jostled from her throat as she opened her mouth wider for me, submitting to me completely, and I took the initiative to give her the taste of my hunger. 

Her breath shortened, a sign that she needed to breathe, but I wasn’t anywhere near done. I’m feral in the thought of ravaging her lips so that anyone who saw would know she had been kissed senseless by her husband. 

I used my teeth on her bottom lip, and she rasped thickly, quivering under my touch as if she was on the verge of coming apart. I sucked, bit, repeating until I could taste a metallic coat in my mouth. 

With one last lick, I was off her lips the next second, heaving as I scrutinized her, trying to take in air back into her lungs. I admired how plump and reddened her lips were, and a satisfaction flooded through me. 

I caught a drool running down her chin, and I wiped it back up, forcing my thumb into her mouth. 

“It wasn’t a joke…” I said darkly, replying to her earlier words. I leaned closer until our noses touched. “I do enjoy the dread in those gorgeous eyes, and I can only imagine how they would look after…” 

I didn’t finish my words, but I was certain she had grasped the full picture of my intent when she gaped at me, a mix of confusion forming as if who stood before her was a completely different person. 

“It’s not funny anymore!” she hissed, stepping out of the elevator when the door opened. 

I followed behind her, eyeing the way she was quick with her steps as if she could 

outrun me. 

Catherine ignored Nico when he approached her and went inside her room. I walked in and shut the door behind me. 

“Get out!” she yelled at me with far too much force; her body shaking. 

I used my teeth to take off my black gloves and pocketed them inside my coat, inching closer as she backed away. 

She grabbed her pillow and swung it at me, but I caught it before it could get to my face.

“That’s twenty now, baby,” I said calmly. 

“Twenty what?!” 

Istood in front of her, and she lifted her chinn bravery, as if ready to come toe to toe 

with me. 

Very cute. 

“Spanks.” 

That hunger blossomed in her eyes, but she quickly masked it with her annoyance, glowering at me as if the mere thought of me sickened her. 

Is it a crime that I was enjoying this far too much? 

“You’re not touching me,” she gritted. 

“Is that what you want?” 

“Yes!” 

“Then what was last night all about?” I could feel my heart race at the recollection of finally hearing the words I desired. 

She adjusted her glasses. “I was under the influence of hormones.” 2 

I snatched her chin before she could blink, and her body locked in place, eyes wide with a mix of fright and thrill. 

“Careful…” I warned. 

“What are you gonna do? Gag me?” 

“Don’t give me ideas, you’re still recovering.” 

She huffed. “You’re impossible.” 

I tipped my head slowly. 

“You think you’re so great that you can get what you want.” 

“And what exactly do you think I want?” 

That smug smirk curled her lips, but she didnt reply, switching the topic. “I don’t want Nico.” 

It hasn’t been decided if Nico will be her bodyguard. He was high most of the time, but that was when he was most deadly and focused. 

Catherine forced her chin away from my hold and sat on the bed, the force causing her

tits to bounce. 

Is she not wearing a fucking bra? 

She smiled as if she could tell I knew. I pressed my hands on the bed and leaned down to her eye level. 

She was taunting me with that expression, but I won’t give her what she wants. 

“Have you had breakfast?” I asked. 

“Would you be my 

breakfast?” 

Two beats passed before she giggled. 

Sighing, I leaned away, pulled out my phone, and dialed a number to order something for her to eat. It didn’t take too long before I called Nico. 

“Boss?” 

I cast a look over my shoulder. Catherine was busy removing her robe, and it was taking too much time. 

“Theo Mercer, make sure he doesn’t set a foot into this hospital again.” 

“Do you want me to kill him?” 

Mercer systems were currently in the spotlight because of his newest works. I don’t want the media over this, and I know they’d eat this up like candy. 

“No.”

After eating, Catherine fell asleep. Her nurse came in for her rounds, asking what happened to her lips because of how swollen and red they looked. 

In my silence, she went back to her daily check–up. She changed her IV bag and fixed some medication for her to take when she wakes. 

“She hasn’t been sleeping properly. This is progress, though. She must’ve been so exhausted to finally get a shut eye.” 

With a nudge of my head, she left and told me she would come to check on her later. 

My phone rang. Athena. 

“What did you find?” I asked the moment I picked. 

opened the glass doors to step out onto the balcony. The air was chilly, and the view

of the night lights of Midnight City was always something to look forward to. 

“I never forget a voice or a face…” She began. The worker I saw when I met Cat in the boutique… They told me there was no one like that.” 

I exhaled sharply. 

“Ares. Is there something you’re not telling me?” She asked heavily.

“First, you investigate the accident, and now this. You don’t think Daddy has something to do with this, do you?” 

“I never said it was him.” 

Suddenly, I could feel her face twisting into rage. “That witch!” 

“Not confirmed yet.” 

“Even if you confirm, you can’t touch her,” she clarified. 

“Not yet… but I will.”
