Chapter 6 #2
“You know…you were the greatest victory to win over. Fury was easy. He was friends with everyone, hadn’t had anything bad happen to him, so he never really doubted anything. Because of that, I think it was easier for you to see me as a friend. It took time…but eventually, you trusted me.”
“I don’t take lightly to betrayal, Joshua.”
“Maybe not, but I saw a way to keep you looking the other way. There came a time when you doubted me…it was right after Razor. You didn’t look at me the same way…
I thought I fucked up and I needed to dangle the carrot for you to get distracted.
When I learned that the guys had Darby and were keeping her safe from the Destructive Sons, I knew I had to find a way to distract you.
I convinced Ace that you were the perfect one to watch over her.
I knew her little bubbly sunshine personality would seep into your cold, dark heart. Turns out I was right.”
I hated that he was right. That he could read me so effortlessly.
After he found Razor’s body, I felt like something was off.
He went off on his own a lot more and spent time away from the clubhouse.
He didn’t act like he was grieving, and that was offputting.
I knew everyone grieved in their own way so I didn’t want to raise it unless I was sure… and then I was put on babysitting duty.
The fucker played us all.
“Your little game fucked up when you got called up to look after her, didn’t it?” I sneered. “She knew who you were and now you’re going to die for your betrayal.”
“Kill me…I don’t care…but let me ask you this…
if you all are here…who’s watching sweet and innocent little Darby Rose?
” he asked, his grin bloody and cruel. “I guess putting me on babysitting detail wasn’t such a great idea, after all.
I knew exactly how to get in and out of that house, I know the codes, the secret cameras. I know everything and now…so does he.”
Fear shot through my body like a bullet. The way he was laughing told me he wasn’t bluffing. Of course, he had all those codes because he was one of us.
Darby.
I looked to Ace.
“Go…call Wolf.”
I headed out of the shed just as I heard Hawk proclaim, “Chains, he’s yours.”
The boys all followed me out of the shed as the cries of Blaze echoed through the night. Wolf answered on the second ring.
“Yo.”
“Where you at?”
“Ah, just heading your way now,” he said. “Got held up in Ballingarry.”
“How close are you to Tullaroan?”
“About five minutes, why?”
“Can you head to the safe house? I think Darby and Shona are in trouble.”
Savage was heading to his bike as were Viper and Fury. The rest would stay here and protect the clubhouse. I could barely think straight as I told Wolf what the deal was. He told me to ride hard and fast. Riagan wasn’t someone to mess with.
I jumped on my bike and followed behind Viper and Savage, Fury was beside me. My mind was on Darby. She hadn’t wanted me to come here tonight, hadn’t wanted to be apart from me, and yet I’d told her I would see her later.
Hatred coiled around my heart for Blaze and for not trusting Darby’s gut to keep her safe. If anything happened to her, I would never forgive myself.
Ever.
We were gaining on the safe house, and all looked good around the perimeter. No bikes, cars or anything of a show of force to get her out. Wolf was at the door, turning to shrug his shoulders when we pulled up.
“They’re good. Shona said nothing’s happened all night.”
“Why would he tease that they were in danger?”
“He thought it would buy him time,” Viper said. “He wanted us to lay off him. He was in pain and he knew it would freak us out and make us jump into action.”
I sighed, relief washing through me. Shona walked out of the house, and into Savage’s arms. Darby hovered at the door and I wished like anything I could pull her under my arm but no one knew about us.
They probably did now given my reaction and what Blaze said, but until I claimed her, I had no right to offer comfort in my arms, no matter how badly I wanted to feel her wrap around me.
“Take her inside, brother,” Viper said. “We’ll head back and figure out what to do next. I’ll have Brogan change the codes and text them to you.”
“No, lock us in until tomorrow,” I said. “I don’t want texts getting hacked and shit.”
Viper nodded. They all headed to their bikes and I ran to the door, and pushed Darby inside. I closed the door and entered the code. Brogan shouldn’t take too long to change them and I would know we are safe then.
“What is it?”
“You were right about Blaze but he just told us he’s given Riagan the codes to this place. Brogan is changing them now. Don’t worry. He’s not here, we checked.”
Darby nodded. “Okay but maybe Riagan doesn’t want to hurt me. He may have been like our father in most ways but when it came to women and kids, he did have a soft spot sometimes. He used to sneak me food when I was being punished all the time. Maybe he just wants to make sure I’m okay.”
“Can you rely on that, Darby?”
She sighed and shook her head. “No. He was also loyal to a fault in Dad's business.”
I pulled her to me, hugging her tight, half expecting her to push me away, but she held onto me. It felt like...home.
Fuck I was in too deep.
I was falling for my princess and I knew it was only going to end in heartbreak.
Darby
His body felt amazing as it crushed up against mine. His hands on my back, squeezing me like I was the only thing in the world he wanted right now.
It was powerful.
I pulled back so I could look at him, and saw that same desire in his eyes. His lips crashed down onto mine before he pushed me back until I hit the wall. Rebel’s hands were on my hips, fingers digging into my flesh causing me to moan into his mouth as he deepened the kiss.
“I need you,” I moaned against his lips. “Please.”
He didn’t need to be asked twice, he pulled me from the wall, picking me up, my legs wrapping around him instinctually, as he walked us to his room.
Rebel tossed me onto the bed, and yanked at my skirt, pulling it down with my panties before he moved between my legs and licked right through my folds.
I barely had time to reposition on the bed before his thumb was on my clit and his tongue was diving into my core.
My back arched on the bed, my hands fisting the sheets next to my head as the delicious current of pleasure rocketed through me.
Rebel feasted on me like I was his last meal on death row. My orgasm was building fast. When I looked down to see his eyes on me, the first wave hit me hard. I screamed out his name which only seemed to make him push himself more into me as he cleaned my release from me.
He sat back, a huge grin on his face, his mouth and chin wet from my arousal. “I’ll never get sick of that.”
“Get naked, Kendrick. I need you inside me.”
He quickly shed his clothing and I removed the rest of mine before he knelt on the bed, shoving my legs apart.
He dipped two fingers into me, my hips bucking up with the movement as I groaned into the pillows.
He slid a third finger in, while pumping his cock, his eyes on my pussy like a starved man.
“Fuck me, Kendrick!”
He chuckled before pulling his fingers out and licking them clean. “We’re going to need to work on your patience, princess.”
Frustration mounted in me and I sat up on my elbows. “If you’re not going to do it, I’ll get something else to slide up inside me.”
He shoved me back down, his hand on my neck, squeezing it. A fresh wave of arousal flooded my system as he looked down at me with darkened eyes. “Nobody and nothing else will fuck your hole, Darby. Only me.”
Holy fucking shit.
He was a book boyfriend come to life and I was living my best life right now as he lined his cock up to my entrance and slammed all the way home. He stayed like that, his fingers digging into my neck slightly until my pussy adjusted.
“Fuck, you are so tight, baby,” he whispered, kissing my jaw and lifting his hand from my neck.
He pumped into me hard, my pussy clenching around him, another orgasm almost about to rip through me.
I scratched my nails down his arms. Rebel held onto my hips, angling them up in the air as he pushed down into me further, hitting spots I didn’t even know existed.
His thumb brushed over my clit and I exploded around him.
He grunted as my pussy clenched his cock like a vice, and waves of pleasure rolled through my body.
My eyes flicked back as my body was transported to another dimension, my breathing was laboured and my body felt like it was on a live wire.
“Shit,” he grunted. “Fuck.”
It took a few more pumps and he was emptying into me. Rebel collapsed on the bed next to me, out of breath. I rolled over onto my side, his arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me up against him. He placed a kiss on my lips, soft and tender, before he laid his head back down.
“That was exactly what I needed,” I said into his chest.
“Me too, baby,” he huffed out. “You’re not going to storm out of here and not talk to me for the next few days are you?”
I chuckled next to him. “Not unless you have any other revelations you want to lay on me.”
He turned his head, and for a moment I was fearful he might actually tell me something else he’d been keeping from me. “You’re making it really hard to be able to let you go when this is over. How’s that for a revelation?”
“Why do you have to?” I asked him. “What if I like what we have?”
“I’m not good for you, Darby.”
“I don’t care, I want you and I always get what I want.”
He chuckled, and it was the most heartwarming sound to my ears that I almost forgot how serious our conversation was. By the end, I would make him see he was the one for me. He was stuck with me now.
Rebel wasn’t kidding when he said he was hungry. He’d been taking forever, so I got up to see what he was doing and smelt the sugary sweetness of the cookies before I saw them.
