“What do you want, Torch?” I ask breathlessly.
“I needed to check on you. I heard the music and Danyella said you were out here.” He steps closer to me, his powerful legs closing the distance between us.
“I don’t need protection, Torch.” I turn my back on him and start hitting the bag again. Angry he feels the need to protect me. Pissed off he doesn’t want me like he wants Rose. Frustrated that Torch isn’t giving me what I crave.
His warm arms wrap around me, stopping me from hitting the bag and I’m close to breaking down. “What do you need then?” Torch’s warm breath whispers in my ear.
I lose all the anger and resentment I’ve been harboring inside when I’m in his arms. “Just you.” I turn around in his arms until we’re chest to chest. Torch is quite a bit taller than me so I have to really look up to see his face. His pale blue eyes are staring down at me with confliction. His blonde hair hanging in his eyes. I brush it away and keep my eyes locked on his. I take a deep breath and lay it all out there for him.
“All I need is you, Torch. Your touch grounds me. You bring peace in the chaos of my head. When you’re not here with me, I go crazy. Jealously creeps up on me and I’m an asshole. But the moment I see you again, the moment we’re together like this, it all goes away. I need you to make it stop. Make the hurt go away. Give me peace so I can become the woman you need. Give me you, even if only for a night. Take away all the bad memories and give me better ones. Show me how a man should treat a woman.” I close my eyes and lay my head on Torch’s chest. His heart is beating hard against his chest and his breathing is short and shallow.
His arms come around me tighter and he lifts me up. I straddle his waist and feel the hardness behind the zipper of his jeans. Is he finally giving in?
I look into his eyes and they’re hooded with desire. His lips are millimeters away from mine. I lean in and close the small distance between us. When my lips land on his, I’m at peace. Torch squeezes my ass with his strong hands. I open my mouth and his tongue finds mine. Our first kiss has my head dizzy and my heart ready to explode. I groan and it urges Torch on. He lays me down onto the cold mat and covers his body with mine. He keeps kissing me as his hips drive into me, rubbing my clit through my shorts. I’m close to coming and he’s barely touched me.
I grab his head and pull him closer to me, desperate to keep going. Torch pulls his body away slightly and his hand grips my breast, kneading it gently. He yanks my tank top and bra over my head, exposing my scarred chest to him.
“Keep going, Torch, please.” I all but beg against his lips.
“I’m not going to fuck you now, Daisy. But I will give you what I can.” Torch’s voice is strained with passion.
His hands move lower to the top of my shorts and he pops the button. I lift my hips and he slides them down my legs along with my panties. I’m fully naked and he’s still dressed. I yank on his belt buckle, but Torch shifts his hips away and traps my hands above my head. “Still, sweet girl or I’ll stop.” His ice blue eyes penetrate into my soul and I stop moving. “Enjoy the sensations I’m giving you. Enjoy my touch against your body and let go. Let it all go.” Torch’s husky voice sends shivers across my skin and goes deep into my heart. I immediately stop moving and close my eyes, concentrating on his hands across my skin. His lips are on my flesh as they trail kisses down my body until Torch’s hot breath blows across the apex of my thighs. His tongue darts out and presses against my pussy and I’m putty in his hands.
“That’s it, sweet girl. Let go and just feel.” Torch’s tongue flattens against my clit and my pussy contracts. Every stroke of his tongue on my clit and inside my pussy causes me to moan. Every bite and nibble on the tender flesh has my hips bucking toward his mouth. One of Torch’s fingers enters me and strokes my walls while his tongue laps up my juices. He growls low and it vibrates my pussy.
“Oh my God, Torch. Don’t stop.” I beg. “I’m so close, keep going.”
“I don’t plan on stopping sweet girl. Not until you’re coming on my tongue and down my throat.” Torch enters two fingers inside of me and begins pushing them in and out while his thumb rubs my clit. Tingles start low in my stomach and work their way through every limb, vein and nerve ending.
“Oh, fuck.” My pussy clamps down onto Torch’s fingers as an orgasm rocks my world. He licks, sucks and fucks my pussy with his mouth and fingers until I can’t move. My chest is rapidly rising and falling and Torch slows down, bringing me back down from wherever in the hell he just took me. If he can do this to me with just his fingers and tongue, I can only imagine what he can do with his cock.
Torch kisses his way up my body until his lips are inches from mine. “That was perfect sweet girl.” He leans in and kisses me. I can taste myself on his tongue and it’s something I enjoy. I grab the back of Torch’s head and keep his lips against mine, greedy for his taste.
He rocks his hips into me, bringing me back for more. But all too soon Torch pulls away and lifts me up until I’m straddling his lap. My bare pussy grinding against his hard cock. “I want to fuck, Torch.”
He stills underneath me and grips my hips hard, probably leaving bruises. “I’m not fucking you tonight, Daisy. Get dressed.” He lifts me off his lap and my face heats with embarrassment.
I grab my clothes and put them on with chopped motions. Tears are in my eyes from his rejection but I won’t let him see them fall. “I should’ve fucking known,” I growl. I should’ve known he would fuck me. I’m not experienced with what he wants so he doesn’t want me.
“Hey, sweet girl.” Torch grabs my arm and pulls me against him.
“Fuck off, Torch. Let. Me. Go.” I’m so pissed, I see red.
“Now hold on. What the fuck did I do?”
I look up into his eyes and pin him with a menacing glare. “What the fuck did you do? What the fuck didn’t you do. I tell you what I want and you can’t even give that to me. What’s the matter, you’re saving your dick for Rose? You won’t fuck me because you want to fuck Rose? Is that it? I’m a fucking pity fuck.” I run out of steam and wrench my arm out of his hold. I walk in a fast pace to the door and turn around before leaving. “If you think for one second, I’ll stand by and let you go that easily. You’re sorely mistaken. Rose will regret the day she crossed me and took what I wanted.” I slam the door behind me, leaving Torch staring after me with a confused expression on his face.
Hurrying to my room, I slam the door shut and lock it behind me. Alone, finally, I let the tears fall down my face and I slide to the floor with my back against the door. Damn it. I’m so fucking stupid to think he’d want a girl like me. So, fucking stupid, Torch would want someone as damaged as I am. If he decides he doesn’t want me, I’ll have no choice but to leave him behind and leave the clubhouse. I won’t be able to stay here watching him with her. No way will I torment myself with that.
No one has ever wanted me and no one ever will.
Chapter 3
Rose
Teeth
I watch Daisy run out of the workout room in the back of the Clubhouse and my heart breaks for her. I’ve been in her shoes, walked in her path many years ago. Torch comes out a few minutes later, his long blonde hair falling into his piercing blue eyes. Pain and confusion written all over his handsome face. He’s struggling with his emotions and I need to be the one to help him decide.
