Chapter 13
Overdrive
Ididn’t even make it to the porch before my front door opened. The looks on Merc’s, Hype’s, and Code’s faces told me something had gone south. “Where’s Rue?”
“Inside,” Hype told me.
“She’s okay,” Merc replied.
“Sort of,” Code corrected.
“Sort of?” I looked between the three of them.
“What happened?” I listened in grim silence as they recounted what’d happened when they found Teddy.
“Fuck,” I muttered when they finished. “At least she was able to get him help. I’ll check in on him and see if there’s anything I can do, too.
Pay the bill, whatever they need.” Rubbing my hand over my chest I shook my head.
“These fuckers have really messed up a lot of people’s lives. ”
“She’s still pretty upset,” Merc told me. “Lot of shit seems to be hitting her hard right now.”
“She has a big heart,” Hype added. “Her brother abandoning her, almost losing Teddy, it’s all too much…”
“What they’re trying to say is she’s fucking crushed, Bro. Don’t leave her alone right now,” Code told me.
“Wasn’t planning on it. The rest of the guys were heading back to the clubhouse,” I told them. “Thanks for going with her today.”
“Just sorry they’ve had to go through this shit in the first place,” Hype said with a heavy sigh.
“We’ll make sure it doesn’t keep happening. To anyone else,” Merc added.
“Yeah, we’ll put a stop to it. Carrick’s days are numbered,” I said in agreement. “I’m glad you guys were there with her and she didn’t have to face that alone.”
“Let us know if you need anything else,” Merc grunted, slapping a hand on my shoulder as he passed by.
“Or if we can help her,” Code said, looking back at my house.
“Thanks, Kid,” I told him. I watched as they left then steeled myself before entering my home.
The tornado that hit me shocked the fuck out of me. Rue must have been waiting while the guys and I spoke outside. She was wrapped around me before I even knew what was happening. My arms closed over her back and I held her close, thinking she needed comfort.
When her head drew back and she kissed me, I froze.
I’d been expecting distraught. And that emotion was written all over her face, but so was determination.
She wanted to use me to hold her grief at bay.
And while the idea of sleeping with her made my dick hard as a rock, this wasn’t exactly the best time for something like that.
Not to mention I wasn’t that much of an asshole. “Hey.”
I’d managed to untangle our lips for just long enough to get the word out.
She wasn’t having any of it. She fused our mouths together again.
I was tempted to keep kissing her. Her mouth was pure sin and I wanted to let her sink into oblivion, but this wasn’t right.
Since when had I become the good guy? Fuck, what was this woman doing to me?
“Rue. Stop.”
She jerked away from me. I let her go. Her eyes narrowed. “Are you rejecting me?”
Well, fuck me. What was I supposed to say to that? “I don’t think this is the best time-”
“I do,” she snapped. Her hands went to her shirt and she ripped it off over her head.
A gentleman was never something I claimed to be. My eyes dropped down to her tits and I groaned. Fuck she was gorgeous. She was panting, a wild look in her eyes. “You’re-”
“OD.”
I stopped and met her gaze. The grief and torment I saw there made me shut my mouth.
“I just want to forget. Just for a bit.” She searched my face. “Please.”
Dammit. Now I was either an asshole for taking advantage of her in a vulnerable position or a fucking piece of shit for denying her the comfort she needed.
Didn’t matter how she needed it, I was obligated to help her.
Not to mention I really fucking wanted to.
I moved to her without another word and pulled her into my arms. My mouth was on her before she could say anything else.
There was nothing else to say at this point.
Her moan of relief was my undoing. My fingers dug into her hips and I lifted her off her feet. Her legs went around my waist and I walked her toward the nearest wall, needing her pressed up against me.
“God,” she whispered. “Yes.”
Her fingers tugged at my shirt and I had to put her down so she could take it off. Her hands were shaking. She was still frantic. Out of her mind with grief and needing a distraction. If there was one thing I was good at, it was distracting people.
“Rue.” Her eyes flew to mine and I cupped her face, bringing her close. “I’ll take care of you. You know that, right?”
She nodded and kissed me.
I picked her up in my arms again, walking her back into my bedroom and gently setting her on my bed.
When she laid there, watching me, waiting, begging me with her gaze, I gave in totally.
Toeing off my boots, I stripped off my jeans, leaving my boxers on.
Then I worked on her clothes. I was in no hurry now.
We had all the time in the world and I planned to take full advantage of every minute.
Tossing her jeans aside, I kissed my way up her bare leg, and pushed her thighs apart. Settling between them, I studied her. “Last chance, Sweet Light. We can-”
She rose up, aligning our upper bodies and kissed me again, shutting down my offer for her to stop this.
Groaning, I took over the kiss, pressing her into the mattress, keeping most of my weight on my arms, but letting her feel the pressure of my body against hers. She moaned, and her nails dug into my shoulders.
I moved from her lips, nipping at her jaw and neck before moving down her body.
When I reached her nipples, she hissed in pleasure.
I spent more time on them than I should have, but fuck if they weren't perfect.
Tight and eager for my attention. I filled my hands with her tits, taking turns seeing what kind of pressure and movement she liked.
If she needed to forget then the last thing she needed was a quickie.
She needed a way to release all the built up emotions stuck inside of her.
When her hand moved to her pussy, I caught it. “That’s mine to play with,” I told her. I pinned her wrist to the bed. “Your hands stay here.”
She stared at me wide-eyed as I lowered my mouth back to her breasts and teased her with my tongue.
I didn’t move until she relaxed back into the mattress, her free hand fisted into the sheets.
Only then, when she was listening, did I move lower.
Settling my shoulders between her pretty thighs, I blew on her covered pussy.
I’d left her little cotton panties on. I liked the way they rode over her hip bones.
“Oh my God, OD,” she panted.
“Open your legs wider, Rue.”
She hesitated, her thighs trembling.
I nipped at the skin of her inner thigh to encourage her.
Slowly she parted them further. I didn’t need the space, I just wanted her to open herself completely to me. To make sure this was what she really wanted. That she was giving herself willingly to me.
My cock was throbbing, demanding to be inside her, but I was in control. “Lift your hips.”
When she did, I hooked a finger under the material and ripped her panties down her body. I enjoyed the little shocked gasp she gave, especially when it was followed by that sexy moan of hers.
I took in her pretty, glistening pussy. She was ready. So damn wet. I didn’t tease her. Lifting her knees, I placed them on my shoulders, then bent over and sucked her clit into my mouth. She cried out, hips arching upward.
“Oh my God!”
“Like that, Light?”
“Don’t stop.”
“Wasn’t planning on it.” Focusing back on the task at hand, I circled my tongue over her clit.
“Good. Good. Keep doing that. Please.”
I chuckled and licked her a few times before moving to her pussy and shoving my tongue inside her. She bucked against me, her hands going to my head.
I paused, letting her writhe and beg a few moments. Then I gripped her hips and buried my face in her, working her over.
She lost all words and all that was left was groans and gasps of delight.
That was fucking fine by me. She was so fucking hot.
It was the only reason I was holding myself back.
I wanted to devour every inch of her. To give her as much pleasure as I could.
This wasn’t the time to wonder whether this would be the only damn time I got to touch her, so I shoved all thoughts to the back of my head and focused solely on the woman underneath me.
When she came, it was with a soft gasp, her body going rigid, her fingers tangled in my hair, holding me tight. Fuck she was beautiful.
I kept her orgasm going for as long as I could, but eventually she relaxed, melting back into the bed. I should stop. Do the right thing and let her sleep this off. Hissing as her hands twisted in my hair, yanking on my scalp, I looked up at her.
“Now,” she huffed out. “I want you now.”
I was already damned to hell, no point in stopping now. I stood, pulling her closer to the edge of the bed, then I shoved down my boxers. She reached for me, her fingers closing around my cock.
“Fuck, Rue,” I hissed out in pleasure.
“Come here,” she murmured.
I climbed back onto the bed, kneeling over her, then took her mouth in a deep, drugging kiss. Our tongues twisted together as she stroked me. I’d thought she was the desperate one, but now, as her lips slid over mine, her hand squeezing my cock, I felt like I was the one losing my damn mind.
I had to force myself to break the kiss. She made a soft noise of protest that had me grinning. I leaned to the side, digging in my nightstand where the condoms were. She let me go long enough for me to roll the condom over my dick.
“Lay back and open those pretty legs for me, Rue.”
I settled between her thighs, then took her mouth again. She whimpered and wrapped her arms around my neck, clinging to me. My hand drifted down, finding her soaking wet. I pushed a finger inside, testing her. She arched her hips, taking me deeper.
“OD, please,” she gasped.
“Please what, Rue?” She shook her head in answer. “You want me to fuck you?”
She nodded, her eyes meeting mine.
“Say it.”
“Fuck me,” she demanded.
I chuckled and removed my hand, notching my cock at the opening of her pussy. “Whatever you say, Beautiful.”
Then I pushed inside. Her head went back, her lips parting as I slid deeper.
“So tight,” I groaned, burying my face against her neck.
“Feels so good,” she breathed, her hips shifting as though trying to make more room for me.
“Just wait, Light,” I told her. Once my cock was fully seated, I pulled almost all the way out, then shoved back in.
“Oh!” she gasped.
“Feel good?”
"Yes,” she hissed, eyes closed.
I gave her more. Gripping her hips, I started a steady rhythm, pushing her into the bed with every thrust. I kissed her as I fucked her, swallowing all the sexy little sounds she made. Keeping them for myself.
Her hands went to my ass, gripping me tightly. “Faster,” she demanded, lifting her hips.
I obliged, speeding up my pace, loving the way she clung to me. The way her nails dug into my skin. “Like that, Rue? You like my cock inside you? Filling you up?”
“Yes. Harder.”
“Whatever the lady wants,” I grunted, picking up speed and adjusting the force of my thrusts. Fuck she felt so good. I needed to make her come again. There was no way I was going to finish until she’d lost her mind under me. She needed the release to wipe the memories, if only for a short time.
I slid my hands under her, gripping her hips and lifting her into me as I fucked her hard.
“OD,” she gasped.
“Come for me, Rue,” I told her.
“I-”
“Come.”
She clenched around me and came with a cry. I held her as she did, keeping her tight to me, keeping my pace so that I didn’t throw her off as she rode the orgasm.
“Fucking gorgeous,” I murmured, watching her.
When she’d finished, I pulled out of her. She made a noise of protest, but I rolled her onto her stomach, pulling her hips up and shoved into her from behind. It was my turn and I wanted to watch her luscious little ass bounce against me as I fucked her.
Her moans turned into a high pitched keening that was so damn sexy. My fingers dug into her skin, holding her in place as I slammed into her. I wasn’t going to last much longer. Not with the way her pussy kept clamping down on me.
She moaned, her face buried in the bed, her hands fisting the blankets.
“One more time,” I demanded, reaching around her and finding her clit. She jerked under my touch. “One more, Sweet Light.”
“No,” she moaned, but she was already bucking her hips, pressing into my fingers.
I fisted her hair and pulled her head back firmly. She let out the sexiest little gasp. “You’re going to come one more time for me.”
“I can’t,” she breathed.
I pinched her clit lightly. “Do it.”
She did. I could tell the minute the orgasm hit. She tightened around me, then shuddered.
I didn’t hold back anymore. With a roar, I came, the world going white around the edges as the pleasure consumed me.
It wasn’t until the sound of heavy breathing filled the air that I realized I was panting. I was also still buried inside Rue. Pulling out, I disposed of the used condom in the trash next to the bed, then pulled her into my arms.
We were both silent as our breathing evened out, then I realized my chest was damp. A sob escaped her and damn near broke my blackened, jaded heart. “It’s okay. Let it out,” I said, squeezing her closer.
She buried her face in my chest and started crying so hard she was having trouble breathing. “I…don’t know…why he’d do…this. Why he’d…leave.”
I held her through it, letting her just get it out.
She needed this. I wasn’t sure if this was just for her brother, or if it was for Teddy, too.
She probably hadn’t had anyone around to comfort her when Ryan left.
She might not have let loose on her own.
And she certainly didn’t understand why he’d chosen to leave.
I did, but now wasn’t the time to explain to her what had likely happened with him. There’d be a chance for that later.
I could see her trying to be brave and hold it all in.
Now it was escaping with every tear. Wrapping my arms around her, I kissed the top of her head and murmured encouraging words.
I didn’t have any idea what I said, I just knew I needed to make her feel better. To ease the hurt. For both our sakes.
