CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR
Axe
In the end, the club lost eight men. Fake and Lars from South Carolina. Dutch, Abe, Blitz, and Marco from West Tennessee. Adam, from Gray Fort.
And Crow. He had made it all the way to the hospital before he finally gave in. There was nothing to be done. The shotgun blast had torn up his insides. And the ten other bullets he took after that didn’t make matters any better.
The last feeling that I’d had towards him was anger. I hated that we didn’t get to make our peace. But he went down fighting by my side, as I did his, and I think that was what mattered the most. We went in as a club—as brothers—together and we put everything aside.
Family fought sometimes, it was unavoidable, but at the end of the day, you knew that you still loved one another even if you didn’t say it. I only hoped that he thought the same way.
Brand survived. Thank fuck! That guy was really starting to grow on me and I had no doubts that he would rise far in the club. He was loyal to the bone and smart on top of that. He also had a level head and even in a time when he seemed fucked, he held a light attitude.
With Savage no longer hanging over our heads, we were able to take a ride for our fallen brothers. We were finally able to ride in Stone’s name. It felt sad, yet freeing at the same time.
Ethel was out of the hospital and back home. Though she still wasn’t getting around so well on her own, she had enough of us to keep watch over her twenty-four seven. And she didn’t mind one damn bit.
We didn’t find Steve’s body among the dead Devil’s. My only thought was that he saw us coming and ran like the coward that he was. We were looking for him. We’d hunt him down and get justice for Ethel no matter what it took. It was just a matter of time before we caught up with him.
“He’s down,” Allison’s voice floated into my ears as she stepped off the last step.
We’d been back two weeks. Ethel’s rental had been cleaned and repaired. I told Allison that I’d find her a new place to live, but it seemed that even with what had happened here, it felt like home to her. I wanted to argue but when those deep blue eyes looked up at me through her lashes and she told me that this was where we had started, I caved.
Her ability to see the good outcome in every situation amazed me. Her strength to go on after everything blew my damn mind.
So, we stayed. Yes, we, because every free second I had, I spent with them. Allison and Neiryn were my air, my world, my fucking life.
“I was thinking of starting something for dinner. Any ideas?” she asked as she walked over to the dining room table where I was seated going over some papers for the club.
“Yeah,” I said as my hands wrapped around her waist. “You.”
With that, I hauled her ass up and laid her out on the table. In a blink of an eye, she was stripped down bare for me. I stood leaning over her as I took in every sexy inch of her body. Then I kissed her hard, taking her mouth with a desperate need that couldn’t be stopped. And damn if she didn’t kiss me back with just as much enthusiasm.
I pulled her hands over her head and wrapped her fingers around the edge of the table.
“Don’t move or I will stop,” I said then nipped the tender flesh below her ear.
I felt like I hadn’t touched her in forever. I wanted to give her time to heal. Not just her body but her mind as well. No matter how much she had pleaded and begged me the last two weeks, I had managed to keep my dick in check.
Which, let me tell you, was hard as fuck—especially because that damn woman would always climb into the shower with me. Not that I hated it, because she was sexy as hell. But trying to hold myself back when she was right there and naked took the resistance of a saint.
Now it was time. I couldn’t wait any longer and I knew she couldn’t either. Each day she grew stronger and as that strength grew so did her soul. I knew we’d never be so-called normal, but we fit so perfectly together. We had created our own world, made our own normal.
“Please,” she whimpered as I kissed my way down her body.
I took my seat and ran my fingers along her folds. She was drenched for me and her sweet scent filled my nose. I splayed my fingers on the insides of her creamy thighs and pressed them wide. I stared down at her beautiful cunt and couldn’t believe that it was all mine. But it was. And I was going to show it every chance that I got how fucking grateful I was.
With one slow lick, her juices coated my tongue and I savored everything about it. She tasted like fucking heaven.
Her whimpers filled my ears as my tongue circled her pussy. Then I closed my mouth around her clit, sucking and nibbling it until her body was trembling uncontrollably. She hadn’t moved. In fact, I could tell that she was doing her best not to, even though I knew she wanted to touch me. I could just picture how tightly her hands were gripping the edge of the table.
My fingers dug into her thighs and I knew she was damn close. Her breathy moans filled the air. I pulled my mouth away, only to circle her clit with the tip of my tongue as I plunged two fingers into her hot center.
“That’s it, bitch. Come for me,” I said curling my fingers inside of her and hitting that magic spot. My mouth closed around her clit again as I trapped it between my teeth. And that did it, her body shook hard as her cream coated my hand and filled my mouth.
“Good girl,” I said as I stood over her. Her eyes were half-lidded and she had a satisfied smile plastered on her face.
Not wasting any time, I dropped my pants. Her pussy was still quivering when I plunged deep inside of her.
