Chapter 14
GQ
Tips were coming in left and right about Alek Kozlov. I knew we were getting close to finding him. It seemed he’d been lying low the past week and had come out of into the open, snatching women for his quota, whatever that number had been. He was short one: Cassandra.
My unfounded fear was he’d take Kelly. But how could he when I escorted her to and from work? I guess it had to do with finally having someone who meant more to me than my own life.
“What are you thinking about?” She reached for my hand and laced our fingers.
“How it’s crazy to be so happy after everything I’ve been through.” It was the honest true. This gorgeous lady made me want to live for a million years, with her by my side, of course.
“I know what you mean. After my parents died and it was just me and Kevin, it felt like the universe had gone dark and betrayed me. But being with you gives me hope, again.”
I knew exactly how she felt.
We stopped at the gate of the compound and Dom saluted me like a dork and waved us through. The guy could be a seriously scary fuck when he wanted and the most charming guy who made women fall at his feet. But not my woman.
“He cracks me up.”
“That better be the only thing he does for you.” I winked at her, parking my truck.
“You have nothing to worry about. I only want you.” She unbuckled her seatbelt and moaned as she stretched, pushing out tits out.
“Dammit woman. Don’t do that when I can’t have you yet.” I knew she was teasing me, but that wasn’t nice. I finally felt like a man and my dick craved her pussy, only hers.
“I mean, you can. After I shower, of course.”
“Let’s go inside before I have you suck me off.”
“I will if you ask me nicely.” She licked her lips in that sexy way all women knew how to do. Was there a required course they took to learn how to drive a man out of his mine with desire?
“Fuck. Get your juicy ass out of my truck, Sassy Girl.”
She giggled and hopped out. I was glad Kevin decided to spend the night at Conrad’s so Kelly wouldn’t be thinking about him being at the clubhouse. I wanted her all to myself tonight, but I knew she needed sleep too. At least we could be totally naked and take our time, unlike during our quickies.
I strolled to her side where she waited with a heart-stopping smile.
“Fucking irresistible, baby.” I pushed her against my truck door and kissed her, pressing my body against her. I loved the way we fit together. She was average height but compared to me, I still towered over her at over six feet. And her curves were as perfect as her.
“What’s this purple bitch doing back so soon?” Letty shouted. “Is she why you keep rejecting me?”
Kelly pushed me back and gave me that scary look that warned me that I had better not have cheated on her.
“I haven’t touched her,” I told her.
“It’s his word against mine.” Letty put her hands on her hips. She must have a death wish because I was about to kill her for lying.
“And what gives you the right to be anywhere near my man,” Kelly said in a frosty tone, moving toward Letty.
“I don’t see a ring on your finger and he sure as hell hasn’t claimed you.”
“I don’t need a ring to know how he feels about me, and you know it. That’s what has you acting like a crazy woman.” Kelly took two more steps closer, showing Letty, she wasn’t backing down. “Admit it. You hate how he looks at me.”
Damn, my woman was egging her on.
“It burns you up that he never looked at you the same way. It’s okay, Let-ty. It’s a big ocean out there. You’ll hook one who actually wants you.”
“You think you’re all that because you’re a nurse and he’s after you. But I had him before you, blondie bitch! Everything he does to you, he did it to me first!” Letty the evil witch smiled. She would be gone after this.
“Fucking hell!” I charged toward Letty and Kelly blocked me.
“No.” She stared into my eyes and something dark flashed in her baby blues. She smashed her mouth against mine and kissed me hard.
“Why you trying to show off. You that insecure you gotta kiss him in front of me? Like I don’t know what his mouth tastes like.” Letty cackled.
Movement caught my eye on the side. Jefe and Silvia stepped out of the clubhouse, along with Quino, Slay and Cass.
They were coming out to see a catfight. Jefe got off on seeing women pulling each other’s hair and yelling. He’d said chicks rolling on the ground was more erotic than the women pole dancing half naked at The Cocky Cactus.
I didn’t understand Jefe’s perspective, but whatever.
The last thing I wanted was my girl going head-to-head with Letty, who was fueled by jealous rage. Yes, ever since she saw Kelly and I fucking in my truck she had been after me, and I’d been rejecting her. Then Suzy started in, the more the word got out, that I was pursuing Kelly.
No surprise Blanca stayed away. She had her heart set on becoming Tequila’s old lady and she just might get her wish.
Out of all the club bunnies, Blanca had the most promise.
She was a good woman. Loyal. Obedient. And anyone could see she loved Tequila.
The only question I had was did my brother love her back? It was hard to tell somedays…
“Jesus, are we doing this or what, Smelly Kelly!” Letty clapped her hands trying to break us apart. She’d never touch Kelly while she was in my embrace.
Kelly caught my tongue between her teeth and bit down hard enough to draw blood. I hissed and grabbed her ass. Her eyes bore into mine and I knew my Sassy Girl was ready to defend what belonged to her. Tomboy Kelly was coming out to play. I’d be a fool to get in the way.
I patted her bottom, giving my approval.
Suddenly, her blonde hair whipped into my face as she whirled around, catching me by surprise and Letty. Kelly slammed into the mouth club whore and knocked her onto the ground.
My woman straddled her and slapped her this way and that way. Letty screamed kicking her legs and bucking her hips. Her mini skirt road ups show the world she wasn’t wearing anything under it.
I tried to look away, but I was dog. No many turned away from pussy on full display.
Suzy came running out of the clubhouse and toward Kelly. I almost jumped in front of her but I knew better.
“Get off her!” Suzy yelled and tried to push Kelly off. Her attempt to help Letty only pissed off Kel more. She punched Letty in the face, knocking her out, and turned her attention to Suzy.
My brothers were shouting and yelling, cheering my woman on and it was then that I knew, Kelly would be mine forever.
“You want some of me too, Blondie?” Kelly jumped to her feet, brushed off the dirt, and lunged at Suzy to spook her, and it worked like a charm.
“I don’t have a beef with you. Just trying to help Letty.” Suzy kneeled by a woozy Letty.
“Good,” Kelly said in her usual sweet voice. “Now, if anyone else wants a try at me, let’s go because revved up.” She looked at the other club girls.
“Come on, baby.” I wrapped my arm around her waist. “Let this be a lesson to everyone, my brothers too, Kelly knows how to handle herself. Don’t be a Let-ty,” I said the name the same way Kelly had.
“Yes!” Jefe hollered and whistled. “That’s right! Kelly is a badass!”
Everyone else cheered as we passed them.
“This was the best entertainment we’ve had in a long time,” Slay said.
“I knew I liked Kelly,” Cassandra said next.
Inside the clubhouse, I lifted my woman, and she wrapped her legs around me, and I carried her to my bedroom. I appreciated her not telling me to be careful or to put her down. She let me decide what I could handle. She allowed me to be a man.
“Straight to the shower,” she told me in a demanding tone.
“Yes, ma’am.”
We peeled each other’s clothes off. I eyed her as she looked at my scars. And when she gently kissed them, I could stop tears from forming in my eyes.
“I don’t deserve you,” I whispered, my voice thick with emotion.
“Yes, you do because I deserve you to.” She took my hand and led me into the shower stall. “I’m not falling in love with your body, Gideon. Although, these tattoos on your back are something to be admired. Wow.” Her hands tailed down my shoulders, to my waist, and over my ass.
“You are too good to me.” I couldn’t believe she admitted she was falling in love with me. Why wasn’t I telling her right back that I was in love with her? What was I afraid of?
“It goes both ways.” She turned the water on, and the cool water was soothing. “Just so you know, I’m going to crash hard after my adrenaline drops.”
I joined her under the shower head. “Then we’ll make it a little quicker than I planned because we have the rest of our lives for slow.”
“The rest of our lives? You sound confident.” She put her back against the wall and pulled me toward her. Her leg lifted giving me access. My dick was already pointing at her.
“Damn right I am. I don’t even want to be without you.”
“Are you falling in love with me?” She asked as she licked my scruffy chin. “Maybe a little.”
I drove my cock into her. “Maybe.” What the fuck, GQ? This wasn’t a game. Give her the words she needed to hear. But the L-word would leave my mouth.
So, to distract her, I fucked her and played with her perky, round breast.
What was the rush to admit I loved her? I’d just show her how much she meant to me tonight and everyday going forward because we had all the time in the world.
Kelly Lloyd was fixing what she didn’t break, and I would be forever grateful.
