I gently place a kiss on her neck and whisper in her ear, "It's done. Uncle is tying up loose ends as we speak."
She slightly nods her head. Her body starts to tremble and soft cries break the silence in the room. I turn her body to face mine, pull her closer, and rest my forehead against hers.
"No more crying over this, baby. You are a survivor, and nobody will ever hurt you again. Not while I'm around." I place a soft kiss on her lips.
"I love you, Austin," she whispers.
"I love you too, sweetheart." I kiss her as if my life depends on it.
This is what I want in my life. This is who I want in my life. I want to come home to this wonderful woman every day. I want to show her that she is the center of my world.

Demon
Wakingup with Kira in my arms had to be the best feeling in the fucking world. I haven't felt this content in a long time, and I knew it was because of her. But I have this nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach that this is the calm before the storm.
Looking over to the beauty who is curled up beside me, I slide my body closer to her, and she lets out a soft sigh. I place a kiss on her forehead and thoughts of my future with her run through my mind as I replay the conversation that I had a few days ago with Razor.
How would I feel if she walked out the door? Could I see her with another man? Well, I can answer that shit real quick. It isn't fucking happening. I love her too much to let another man have her or for her to leave me. She's too important to me. But me being the President of one of the most feared MCs on the East Coast puts her life in danger. There are some in our world that don't care about the creed of women and children being off limits. Could I do that to her?
Sighing, I close my eyes and continue to contemplate my future with the most incredible woman that I have ever met in my entire life. We got to make this shit work somehow, someway, because I can't let her go.
"Hey babe, what's wrong?" Kira's soft voice brings me out of the thoughts that are racing through my mind.
"Good morning, sweetheart. I didn't mean to wake you."
"Good morning, sweetie and you didn't wake me. But I would like for you to answer my question." She lays her head on my chest, and I contemplate telling her what is on my mind.
"Nothing for you to worry about. I just got a lot on my mind." I hope that is enough for her to drop the subject.
She sighs, concern in her voice. "Austin, you can talk to me. Even if you don't think I can handle it, talk to me. Don't shut me out."
I take a deep breath and tighten my hold on her. I run my fingers through her thick, curly hair, and I weigh whether I should be upfront with what I've been thinking. With a moment of silence, I decide to go ahead and confess my fears. I close my eyes, take in a deep breath, and let it out.
"Kira, I love you with all my heart, and I don't want to be selfish. But I can admit that I am."
"Austin, is this about the club? Are you trying to decide if you can choose me over your club?"
"I can't choose, Kira. I want you in my life, but this is my life. Demons United is my life." I hold on to her as if my life depends on it, afraid that I will lose her in this moment. "These guys and their families are my family.”
She sits up in the bed and runs her hand down the side of my face. I lean into her touch. "Have I asked you to choose, Austin?"
I shake my head and open my eyes to look at the woman I have fallen deeply in love with and would give my life. "But Kira, this life is dangerous. Being with me, you become a target and I'm too selfish to let you go."
Frustrated at the whole situation, I run my hand down my face. This is not what I had planned when Dani and Kira came into my bar. I didn't plan on falling in love with this woman.
Getting up from the bed, I could tell she was just as frustrated as me. "Why do we have to decide this now?"
As I admire her beautiful curvy body, her smooth chocolate skin, I realize I have never in my life craved a woman's body as I crave hers. Never in my life have I just wanted to melt into the warmth of another person as much as I do her. Never have I desired the attention of a person and hope that I’ll never disappoint them as much as I do her.
"We just got out of this Avery situation, and you have to deal with rebuilding your bar and the clubhouse," she said, breaking me from my thoughts of her.
"Kira, because you’re important to me...this is important to me." I motion between her and me. "I don't want to walk away from you, but it may be what's best, and I don't know how to deal with that."
She walks back over to me, crawls back up on the bed, and straddles my waist. I place my hands on her hips.
"Austin, I don't want to think about anything now. I don't want to make any decisions. All I want to do is enjoy you in every way that I can." She climbs on top of my body and places a kiss on my lips.
