27. The Cure
CHAPTER 27
THE CURE
Leo
Twenty minutes later, we're back in the clubhouse, and I've yet to say a word to Nisa. She's tried on several instances to get me to break out of the shell I've erected around myself, but what she doesn't realize is I'm this closed off not only for my benefit but for hers.
I'm going to say or do something I can't take back. Instead of waiting down here in the main area with the group of us, she just walks off toward my bedroom and slams the door. I can deal with her angry, I can't deal with her touching another man.
"Now you see what you're dealing with." Phoenix starts talking before I even have a chance to gather my thoughts.
I'm not interested in the guns or the drugs I saw on the video, not interested in the fact that Marc seems to have no fear for myself or the club. What I'm interested in is the fact that Phoenix let that motherfucker touch her.
I train my eyes on him and beeline straight for him. He may not know what's coming, but the rest of the boys do.
"Leo, wait. Hold up!" Spike calls for me, putting his hands up and trying to get in my way. I skirt around him, beelining straight for Phoenix.
The poor bastard doesn't even have a chance to defend himself. I grab hold of his collar and deliver four blows to his face in quick succession.
Arms pull me away, and Phoenix drops to the ground.
"What the fuck is your problem!" Phoenix roars at me and tries to hop back up on his feet. His legs wobble in the process.
"Stand the fuck down." Tella draws his weapon and points it directly into the outsider's face.
"No, fuck that, I don't know what the hell kind of relationship you assholes have with this motherfucker, but I'm not going to just let someone beat on me without an explanation. We can scrap if that's what we're about to do." Phoenix balls his fists and tries to take another step in my direction.
"What kind of relationship? Let me tell you," Rumble answers and steps between his brother and me. "We got the kind of relationship that means I'll put a bullet in your head if you even think about coming against my president. Tension is high right now, and I promise you this isn't a fight you want. You'll lose."
Phoenix glares at his brother for a moment before looking over at me. "What the fuck is the problem?" He asks, still upset, but at least now he's not trying to charge me.
I can't say the same about myself. My brothers are the only thing holding me back from putting my fist through this motherfucker's face again.
"The problem?! You said you fucking had her!! You said she'd be okay with you in there with her, yet I witnessed Marc put his filthy fucking hands on her. He kissed my woman, and you stood by and watched like it was a motion picture." I roared at him, and his mouth dropped.
"Are you serious right now?" He squints his eyes at me, and my brothers finally let me go.
"Ask me that question again, and I'll show you just how fucking serious I am." I snarl at him.
Phoenix shakes his head and puts his hands up in surrender. "Look man, I thought you understood what was about to go down. I told you it needed to look real. If I hadn't let him touch her in the least, he'd have known that something else was going on. We had to make it seem like he was the one in charge. If things got too heated or if her life was in danger, I would've intervened."
"Leo, I know that shit was hard to watch, but you know Nisa; she can take care of herself," Tella says, turning in my direction.
"If she could take care of herself, she wouldn't be in this fucking situation in the first place. She's my fucking Ol' Lady, and I'm not going to let her deal with this shit on her own just so we can get some information."
"Nah, man, it's not like that." Rumble starts but his brother interjects.
"It's exactly like that. If there's anyone in here who can get under Marc's skin it's Nisa. I've seen firsthand just how obsessed the man is with her. I've seen how crazed he gets when she does something that he thinks is against him and also how fucking delusional he is when it comes to her. Ya'll ain't going to win this fight with him coming at him in the usual way. You have to use her to get to him. I don't want her hurt either but right now you're just going to have to trust that she's going to be okay in the line of fire. If you can't then this shit is definitely not going to work." Phoenix shrugs and takes another step away. Probably fearful that I'm going to come after him again.
Lord knows I want to.
But I can't he's been straight with me since he's been here. There's nothing more that I can do.
"You bastards better make sure that something comes of this. I'm not going to let her do this for nothing." I scan my eyes over the boys only to see them all nod.
With that, I turn and head toward my room. The anger has died down but the sizzling jealousy that I've been feeling since I watched Marc kiss my woman is still running rampant in my body.
I'm not a man who sits with his feelings well and it's time that Nisa figure that out.
Leaving the boys outside to work on our issue I walk into my room and see Nisa on the bed. Her hair is wet and her cheeks are splotchy red.
She's cried herself to sleep.
I sit in the one chair I have in the room and just stare at her.
How the fuck did this shit happen?
I've never been so affected by a woman in my life. Never thought it could happen to me. In fact, I was sure that I'd remain a bachelor for my life. I never wanted an Ol' Lady and this is exactly the reason why.
I don't have a clear head when it comes to her.
I'm not even sure how long I sit there staring at her but thankfully the anger inside of me starts to die down and all that's left is my burning need to prove to her that I'm the only man that she needs.
She turns over in the bed and she reaches out her hand, looking for something. For me.
When she feels nothing but the cool pillow next to her, her eyes pop open.
They settle on me and her lips lift into a soft smile until she gets a good look at my face and then she replaces the sweet look with a scowl.
"Are you just going to stare at me all night?" She asks with a husky sleep voice as she sits up letting her mostly dry hair hang around her shoulders and back.
"If I want," I reply gruffly.
"Leo, honestly, I don't have the strength to fight with you today. Whatever your problem is I need you to get over it." She crosses her arms over her chest and shoots daggers from her eyes at me.
"You don't tell me what I need to be doing Nisa. I thought you figured that out by now. This is my shit to run."
She jumps out of the bed, my long t-shirt coming down to her thighs and bunching up as she storms in my direction. "Yeah, I thought so too. I thought you would accept and maybe even appreciate what the hell I was doing to help you run your shit but instead you just made me feel like I was a fucking whore. A dumb gash. I did what I had to do Leo! What about that do you not understand?" She yells in my face and I lurch up out of the chair.
I move so fast that she flinches, moving back. Her eyes widen and she cringes away as if she thinks I'm going to hit her.
"Did what you had to do? Is that what you call it?" I ask, my voice barely more than a whisper.
"Yes." She answers nodding her head slowly, her eyes still roaming over my body looking for the next threat.
"You played that part too well Nisa. I'm not convinced that it was something you had to do. More like something you wanted to do." I admit.
"Wanted to? Are you crazy?" She squints her eyes before she rolls them and tries to turn away from me.
Seeing her turn her back to me only enrages me further. My hand snaps out and I grab the back of her neck to pull her against my body.
"Leo! What the hell are you doing?"She squeals and throws her elbow back trying to dislodge me.
It's like a fly buzzing around. Annoying but does nothing to get me to let me go.
"He had his fucking hands on you." I snarl in her ear, pushing her hair to the side so I can get closer to her.
"Leo, I didn't have a choice." She responds through clenched teeth.
"I think you did. You could've moved or slapped his hand away."
"I couldn't."
I dip my nose closer into her neck and take a long smell of her.
Sweet fire, burning fruit is what she smells like to me. Perfection. All mine.
"Leo." She calls my name again. Her voice wobbling, her emotions high.
"Did you like it, Nisa?" My free hand roughly skims under her arm and around to her front until I grab hold of her breast and squeeze her nipple hard enough for her to buck back against me.
My cock is hard as a rock and dripping with pre-cum.
"I didn't, Leo. I only like it when you touch me."
"Didn't seem like it. You moaned, you grabbed him." I move my hand from her neck and grabbed the shirt she's wearing. In one swift motion starting from the collar, I rip the fabric in two. "You kissed him back."
"Oh Leo, no." She gasps and turns in my arms before slamming her mouth against mine.
That same intense jealousy I'd felt moments before turns into primal desire. I need her more than I need anything in my life. I kiss her back roughly. Until I nip at her lips hard and she squeals away.
"Do you fucking know what it was like watching that asshole's hands on you? To watch you give him something that was only meant to be mine." I grab her chin and push her back until her legs hit the bed and she falls backward.
"I didn't." She replies quickly.
"You did!" I roar before I calm myself back down. "You did, I had to watch. I nearly broke through the fucking van as I watched you make out with that fucker."
I don't give her another chance to respond, instead, I push her back on the bed and scan my eyes over her body. My brain taking in the exact places I know he touched her.
Falling down on top of her I kiss and touch her. Everything is hard. Fire pulsing through my veins. She tries to wrap her arms around my neck but I don't want her touching me. Not yet. Not until she feels me. I suck her neck hard before I bite even harder causing her to scream out.
"Leo, what are you doing?" She pounds on my back and shoulders.
The little fly is back.
I push her arms up so I can lick and soothe the spot on her neck that is now an angry red color.
Her anger quickly morphs and now she mewls under me. The same way she did for Marc. "Yeah, this is what you like. You want someone to take from you."
"No, I just want you to take from me. I've been giving myself to you for years. Take me, Leo. Fuck. Please." She begs and grabs hold of my shirt ripping it down the center the same way I'd done to her before.
A deep growl rumbles in my chest as I drop my head back down to her body. I want to taste every last inch of her. My mouth to erase Marc's touch from every last part of her body. I move my mouth down to her collarbone before I kiss and suck her there.
Nisa responds to my touch, rocking and grinding up against me trying to get some relief.
I can't say no anymore. Can't deny what she's been asking me for since the moment she walked back into my life. She wants this as badly as I do and no promise to her brother or anyone else is going to stop me from giving it to her.
My cut and shirt are off and on the edge of the bed as I continue to kiss and suck down her body. My rough hands squeeze one of her breasts while I latch my mouth on the other. I suck her nipple hard until she squeals and tries to move away from me.
I squeeze her hips hard keeping her steady. I want her to hurt. I want her to feel even the smallest amount of pain that I've felt.
"You see what you do to me, Nisa? See what you've made me do?" I run my nose down her body, letting her skin lull me into a sense of relief. She's here under me. No one is keeping her from me.
"Leo, please." She whimpers and spreads her legs more for me. I kiss the side of her stomach right by her hip bone before I pull her legs up and let my eyes settle on her glistening pussy.
She's soaked, nearly as desperate for me as I am for her. I'm sure it's not the same. She can't know how intense these feelings are inside of me.
Can she?
"Nisa, there's no go back from here." I hear myself tell her. Another warning that if I take her now I'm not only going to be her boyfriend but her everything. She'll never be out of this life. She'll forever be locked in the world of Chrome Creed.
"I don't want to go back. Please, I only want you." She buries her hand into my hair and clutches me hard. I glance up her tight body, she's shaking and looking down at me, her eyes say she's sure. "I don't want to wait anymore." She shakes her head.
If only she could understand that I'm way past the point of waiting for the perfect moment.
If I don't take her now, I'll die.
It feels like something is trying to claw it's way out of me. I feel sick to my stomach and the only cure lies deep inside Nisa's tight virgin cunt.
