Darkness Falls (The Darkness Duet #2)

Chapter 16

Callie

I wake up in Kyler's arms and almost feel the need to pinch myself. I can't believe this is real. They actually came for me and got not only me but also my mom out of that place. My father is dead.

Ky looks so peaceful when he sleeps. My eyes scan his chest, and I take in the new scar a few inches from his heart. It seems both of us have new scars now. He pulled his shirt off after shutting the lights off last night, so I haven't had a chance to examine it until now. I run my fingers along the raised skin and let out a heavy breath. He could have been taken from me forever.

Barrett and Seb caught me up on most of what happened when we were on our way back here. They said it was touch and go for him, and he was in a coma for a few days. I wish I was there when he woke up. I lean in and place a kiss on his scarred skin before resting my head on his chest. I'm so thankful that he made it. I don't know what I would have done if things turned out differently.

He stirs under me, and I look up at him. A smile spreads across his face, and he pulls me on top of him. His hands hold my hips as my bare pussy hovers over his hardened length. We didn't bother sleeping in our clothes last night, and now I’m thankful for it.

"Good morning, wanderer."

"It is a good morning, isn't it?" I giggle and grind on him.

He groans, and he digs his fingers into my hips. "As much as I would love to be inside that sweet pussy again, I think we should head up to the house."

I ignore him because I'm not ready to deal with real-life problems yet. I want to stay here with him for just a little bit longer. Two months without him was too long. I run my finger along the scar on his chest again as my eyes meet his.

"I'm so happy you're okay," I say.

"It was you that brought me back." He smiles.

"What are you talking about?" Obviously, that wasn't possible, considering I was at Rogue.

"You were in some cabin. They grabbed you by the throat. I don't know where I was when I was in my coma, but I saw you with someone. I saw you begging someone to tell you whether or not I was okay. They were hurting you, and I couldn't allow that to keep happening. I had to come back to protect you. We tried to get you out sooner, but we couldn't confirm where you were."

I gasp, completely taken aback. Something very similar to what he's describing happened. "But you weren't there? How could you know someone was hurting me?"

“I don’t know, but it’s what urged me to wake up.”

I think back to the day Damien had me pinned to the couch by my throat at the cabin. It was just a few days after being back in my father's grasp. Damien was pissed off because my father told him he had to keep his hands off of me. Clearly, he didn't listen. How is that even possible for him to know?

"Get out of your head, wanderer," Ky says, trying to pull me from my thoughts.

I can't wait until the day I can make Damien pay. I didn't get revenge on my father. Sebastian had to do it for me, but when I get that moment with Damien, he will feel every ounce of pain I felt. He will be left crying and begging for forgiveness. Even then, I won't stop. When I finally feel like I've gotten justice for everything he put me through, I’ll watch the life drain from his pathetic eyes before spitting on him and tossing him into a shallow grave.

"Callie," Kyler says again, and my eyes dart to his. "You're safe now. We're all safe. Let me take a little bit of that pain away."

He lifts my hips, and I allow him to guide me down until I'm fully seated as his chest heaves up and down. A small groan leaves me. I love feeling him inside me. He flips us over and throws my legs over his shoulders as my back hits the mattress.

"Give me all those delicious sounds you know I love. Be a good fucking girl for me."

A finger finds my clit, rubbing in small circles as he slams into me over and over. My eyes roll back in my head, and I moan loudly, giving him exactly what he wants as the pleasure builds up inside.

"I'll never let anyone hurt you ever again."

I can feel myself already on the cusp of an orgasm as his thumb keeps the same steady pace over my clit. I can't keep the whimpers and moans to myself. Sounds of my pleasure fill the room as my body feels like it’s about to explode. He thrusts into me, over and over, bringing me straight to the edge.

"You want to come for me, don't you?" He smiles down at me and nods. "Do it."

I let the sensations overtake me. My back arches off the bed, and my pussy tightens around him as I see stars. My fingers reach out to grab the sheet, grasping it tightly as he keeps up his steady pace, and I lose myself in my orgasm.

"Good fucking girl," he says, thrusting into me a few more times before shuddering. I feel the warmth of his release shooting into me as he groans my name, “Callie.”

When he pulls out and falls onto the bed next to me, I can feel him dripping from me. I'm just too blissed out to make any attempt to move or care. He leans over and kisses me, making me feel safe.

"I love when you call me a good girl; you know that, right?" I breathe out.

"I know you do, wanderer. The only thing you love more is when I tell you you're being a good little whore for me and my brothers."

Well, fuck. My eyes go wide, but he's not wrong. He slides off the bed and stands next to me with his hand outstretched to help me up .

"Get that beautiful ass up and get dressed. We need to get up to the house before Barrett decides he's tired of watching us. I'm surprised he hasn't come down to grab you for himself already."

"You don't think he was watching, do you?" My eyes roam around the room, knowing it’s pointless because I was never able to find the cameras in here before.

Barrett’s voice fills the room from the speakers. "I was absolutely watching, princess."

Kyler laughs as he gets dressed, and I shake my head. "You couldn't just let us have a moment?" I tell him through the room.

"I let you two have your moment last night. This morning was fair game. You're lucky Seb wasn't watching, too. Now, get your ass up here."

"We'll come to the house when I'm ready, you damn brute, now leave us alone." I shoot a middle finger up and spin around the room for him to see no matter where the cameras are. It reminds me of something Avery would do.

"Ky, do you have a phone? I need to call Avery."

It's been too long since I've talked to her, she's probably freaking out. I'm not sure if she even knows that I was back at Rogue or if the guys talked to her.

"You don't need a phone. She's at the house waiting for you. It was supposed to be a surprise, but apparently, you're bad at those."

"She's at the house, and you didn't tell me!!" I slap him on the chest and run over to grab something from the pile of clothes on the ground next to the bed. I manage to find a pair of leggings and a t-shirt and quickly throw them on.

"In my defense, I tried to get you to the house as soon as we woke up. You insisted on starting our morning off another way instead."

He's not wrong. He walks toward the open door and extends his hand, similar to how he did all those months ago when I was leaving this room with him for the first time.

"Aren't you guys worried about her knowing where the house is?"

"Your father is dead, and Rogue's hacker is in the wind. You deserve to see your best friend. Besides, your piece of shit husband already knows where the house is." He laughs, and I elbow him in the stomach.

"Do NOT call him that," I say with a sneer.

“I’m sorry,” he says as I take his hand.

Hearing him refer to Damien as my husband is not something I ever want to hear again. I can't wait until I can make Damien pay for everything he did to me. He probably thinks he finally has Rogue all to himself. Technically, he does, at least until I take it from him.
