Keeley's Fight (The Protectors Series)

by Donn, KL

  “She’s quite the surprise, hey? Never imagined she would respond like that to choking or handling both of us so well,” Ty said in amazement and wonder. “She’s perfect.”

  He chuckled at the fact that Ty kept calling her perfect, but he was right. She was completely perfect for them. Nate would give anything to keep her happy.

  Chapter 14

  Waking up to giggling and moaning, Ty looked over to see Nate’s hand running through Keeley’s hair and her on her knees bent over him, giving him a blow job. Having her ass so close to him, he couldn’t help but swipe his fingers through her folds, only to find her dripping wet.

  “What a way to wake up,” he said getting on his knees and slipping his now hard cock inside her tight, warm pussy. Moaning, she pulled off Nate to flash a smile at him, before going back to lick up and down his dick.

  Closing his eyes Ty concentrated on sliding into her gently, savoring the sweetness that was all her wrapped around him. Holding her hip in one hand and pressing the other in the middle of her back, Ty took her slow and hard. Pulling out languidly, so the curve of his cock hit her g-spot on every in and out stroke, he slammed back in, hitting her cervix and causing her to squeal with each thrust.

  Opening his eyes when he heard Nate groan out his release, Ty watched her clean his cock off before laying her head on his abs and sighing. Thrusting faster into her, he let out a growl when her orgasm caused his own. Emptying inside her Ty slowly started to get up, pulling her up with him and going into the shower.

  Once in there, he started washing her. Foaming up the soap between his hands he started rubbing her body down, beginning at her feet and moving up her soft slender legs, when he got to her pussy he was careful to brush his hands across her sensitive clit and lips when she let out a moan. Moving up he kissed her belly, and as he got to her breasts he started massaging them. Moving his hands around her made her giggle when he got to her sides. “Ticklish there, are you?” He smiled at her nod.

  After rinsing her off, he started to massage shampoo into her inky black hair. “God, I love your hair,” Ty whispered to her. Rinsing the shampoo out, he massaged conditioner in when she fell into his chest and nuzzled. Leaving a kiss on each pec, Keeley pulled back and smiled before rinsing her hair out.

  Seeing Nate waiting with a towel, he helped her out. While Nate dried her off, Ty quickly washed and rinsed his hair and body, knowing they had to talk to her about last night. Ty shut the water off, and as he was drying off he heard a startled gasp leaving her mouth. Looking up he saw Nate standing behind her with his hands on her hips, and the both of them had their gazes riveted to her neck in the mirror.

  Walking up beside them, he ran his finger across their combined handprint on her neck. It wasn’t bruised but indented, and he felt a surge of pride knowing people would see that and know she belonged to them.

  “Beautiful, isn’t it?” Ty asked her. When she looked at him with tears in her eyes, he was afraid she was upset about it. Looking to Nate he saw the same worry reflected in his brothers eyes. Until she smiled. Her smile lit up the entire room, and he just knew they were going to be ok.

  “I love it,” she murmured. “I know that’s weird. That I would want something like that. But it brings me so much pleasure to let go that way, to know I can trust you both with myself. But to see the evidence of it? It’s almost as good as the real thing,” she confided in them with no shame. Like a woman who was coming into her own.

  “Fucking proud of you for owning this, Butterfly,” Nate told her with a kiss on her lips. “I love you,” he proclaimed to her, looking into her clear blue eyes and making her smile.

  At Ty’s touch to her chin, she turned back to look at him. “There’s no way I can express how happy I am to have you in my life. I love you so much, Keeley,” he said kissing her forehead.

  Chapter 15

  As the weeks went by, Ty was amazed at how well Keeley was settling into her role at their company. She was such a quick learner. At a point now where she knew their system and schedules better than they did, she ran circles around everyone. Julia was even contemplating leaving earlier than she originally planned.

  Walking up behind her while she was making copies of a file, Ty wrapped his arms around her waist, swept her hair away from her neck, and gave her a kiss on the pulse point. “Hi love, how you doin’?”

  Turning in his arms, she gave him a smile, “I’m fine, Tyler. You guys don’t need to keep coming and checking on me, but since you’re here, would you please take this file back with you. It’s the one for Emily Baxter’s stalking case.” She frowned, not liking how scared the woman was, when she came in the previous day to hire them to help find her stalker.

  “You got it, doll. Did she call this morning?”

  “Yes, she was very scared. Someone keeps calling her in the middle of the night and breathing heavily. Who are you giving this case to, Tyler?”

  “We’re not sure yet. It’s why we’re having a meeting in a few minutes,” he frowned.

  “Dane and Coop would be perfect.” She smiled sweetly.

  Snorting at her sweet, I’m so innocent face, he replied, “Darling, they’re likely to send that poor girl into a fit of terrors.”

  Smacking his arm lightly, she shook her head at him, handed him the file, and walked back to her desk. Guess I’m dismissed, he thought; amused at her.

  Walking into the office he shared with Nate, he plopped down in one of the chairs in front of his desk and tossed the file on top, waiting for Nate to finish his phone call.

  “Yes sir, we’ll leave as soon as we can,” he replied to whomever he was talking to and hung up.

  “What’s going on?” Ty asked him, not liking the look on his face.

  “We’ve been hired to go to Africa with some oil tycoon, to check an oil well that’s misfiring. He requested you and me, personally,” Nate explained.

  “When do we leave?”

  “As soon as possible.”

  “Shit, Keeley’s not gonna like it. Hell, I don’t like it,” Ty murmured.

  “Neither do I man, but we shouldn’t be gone for long. A week tops,” Nate assured him. “Let’s go break the news to our girl. We’re going to have to hand over the meeting to Dane and Coop, for Miss Baxter’s case,” Nate said as they were walking out of their shared office, and back to Keeley. Seeing her bent over her desk concentrating on what she was doing, Ty couldn’t help feeling slightly depressed that they had to leave her soon.

  “Hey, Butterfly. Ty and I have to talk to you for a second,” Nate said cautiously.

  Frowning at the tone of his voice, she knew something was up. “What’s wrong?”

  “Nothing darlin’. We got a job and we have to leave ASAP,” Ty informed her.

  Seeing her face drop at the news, he felt worse than he already did. “For how long? Will it be dangerous?” She asked them, worrying her hands together.

  “Shouldn’t be more than a week. We’re escorting some oil tycoon to Africa to check out one if his wells.” Nodding her head, she gave a small smile.

  “You have to leave now? What about Emily? Will someone be taking her case?” She asked them, worriedly.

  “Yes, Butterfly. We’re gonna hand it over to Coop and Dane before we go. We won’t leave her hanging.” Nate pulled her up from her chair to kiss her lips. “We’ll be home before you know it. Plus, our parents and Kenny will stop by, I’m sure.” Nate smiled at her.

  “Come here, darlin’.” Ty said while pulling her from Nate. Kissing her lips and hugging her body to him, Ty basked in her scent and the perfection that was her in his arms. “We’ll call you when we can, but reception will be spotty, ok?” At her nod, he gave her another kiss before pulling away.

  “Just be safe, please? I love you both.” She smiled that sweet smile at them, with a little wave.

  “We love you, too, Butterfly. Never doubt that,” Nate reassured her before they went looking for Dane or Coop.

aving to say goodbye to Nathaniel and Tyler, without crying, was one of the hardest things Keeley had ever done. She was going to miss them something fierce.

  Almost finished with her day, Dane and Coop walked up, with Dane swinging a set of keys from his fingers. “Hey, little lady, the guys forgot to give you these before they left.” He smiled big, making her suspicious. In the last three weeks, she and Dane had gotten very close. He was a great friend to have, but he struggled with how people perceived him as someone to be feared, because of his size. He treated her like a little sister, and she basked in the knowledge that she truly had a good friend in him.

  “What are they for? I have my house keys,” she asked still confused.

  “And just how did you think you were going to get home? It’s an hour’s drive away. Too far to walk.” Coop chuckled at her shocked face, because she truly hadn’t thought about it.

  “Umm, I never thought about it I guess,” she replied while shutting down her computer, and almost freaking out at the prospect of how she was getting home.

  “Grab your stuff and follow us,” Dane told her before turning to walk out of the building, leaving her with little option but to follow them. Getting outside the sun was still shining, and traffic was starting to pick up. Seeing Dane and Coop standing by a blue Ford Explorer confused and stunned her. “That’s not mine, is it? I’ve never owned a vehicle before,” she said in awe.

  “Of course, it is. You didn’t think they’d leave you without transpo, did you?” Dane smirked at her.

  “Well, no. I mean, I really didn’t think about it.”

  “Get in, try it out.” Coop directed, walking around the front and opening the driver’s side door for her. Climbing in she instantly fell in love with the cream colored leather seats and interior; it had a sunroof and automatic everything. She was also happy to note it wasn’t manual. She had told them last week that she could drive, but not to ever expect her to drive a stick shift. She’d crash.

  “It’s mine?” She asked quietly before squealing out, “It’s mine!!” in her excitement.

  When Dane handed her the keys, she immediately started it up and unrolled all the windows and turned the music on. “Alright little lady, before you go, it has an automatic starter, alarm, and GPS; in case you get lost and we have to come rescue you.” Dane joked. “Now drive safe and call either of us for anything at any time, you got me?”

  Nodding her head she blew them each a kiss and took off. Loving the power in the engine and how quiet it was, she decided to take a drive to the mall instead of going home to a quiet house. Seeing a pet store beside the mall, Keeley decided to stop in; seeing the puppies always made her smile.

  Walking in, she immediately felt the air conditioning and gave a slight shiver. Walking over to where the dogs were, she saw so many different puppy breeds. Laughing at their antics, she walked closer and watched them through the glass.

  One of the workers in the back caught her eye. She was with a medium sized dog that didn’t look like it belonged here, and was about to pass it off to someone else. Keeley knocked on the glass lightly to get their attention. Waving for one of them to come over, the worker left the dog with the other person and indicated for them to wait. Coming out she asked, “How can I help you, ma’am?”

  “What are you doing with that dog?” She inquired without taking her eyes off it.

  Sighing, the woman told her sadly, “He’s a pit bull, and someone just dropped him off this morning, by tying him up to the doors. We had to call the Humane Society to come get him, and because we have no background on him they’re mostly likely going to put him down.” When she said that the dog turned to look at them like he knew his fate was death. Making eye contact with her, Keeley knew she couldn’t let that happen.

  On impulse she said, “I’ll take him. Just tell me what I have to do.”

  “I’m afraid it doesn’t work that way, miss,” she told her sadly.

  “Well let’s make it. I can tell you’re not happy about what they’re going to do to him. Help me give him a home. I want this dog. I will not accept his fate,” she implored with more strength than she thought she had. Huh, guess the guys are wearing off on me, she thought to herself.

  Smiling slightly, the woman said to her, “I’ll see what I can do.” Going back in, she went over to the Humane Society worker and started talking animatedly to him about what she wanted. When he looked at the dog and then up at her, and the fact the dog hadn’t looked away from her, he nodded his head and handed the dog back to the pet store worker, and left through the back door.

  Coming back out to Keeley with the dog in tow, she said, “Our vet is still here, let’s bring him in and do a few short tests to see if he is compatible with you and has no health problems, and then we’ll go from there, ok?”

  Nodding her head, Keeley bent down and offered her hand to the dog, who at first was leery, but then he sniffed her hand and walked right into her body. Almost knocking her over, he nuzzled his nose into her neck before sitting down and sighing. Smiling at the worker she said, “I don’t care what it takes, he’s coming home with me today.”

  Getting up they walked to the vets office, where she had a smile on her face. “Hello dear, I watched you both from the window, and I’d say you’re both perfect for each other. Let’s just get a few pesky tests out of the way, to be sure he’s going to be ok and has no diseases, and you can both be on your way.”

  As the vet did her tests, she and the worker did some shopping for him, getting a bed, toys, food, treats, and anything else they could find that they thought he might need.

  After they had taken everything out to her new SUV and were walking back in, the vet and her new dog were walking out. He immediately started to whine and walk to her. Bending down to grab his leash, she gave him a pat on the head and asked the vet, “Is he ok? Can I take him home now?”

  “All is well dear. He’s about five years old, would be my guess, and all his tests came back negative. I gave him the vaccine’s he would need for the year. The only thing he’ll need now is a name,” she said smiling at her.

  Shaking their hands she smiled and said, “Thank you so much for this, my boyfriends just left for the week and I really only came in to see the puppies, but this guy just called to me,” she told them. “I think I’ll call him Rowdy.” She smiled down at him as they walked out, and made their way to her vehicle.

  Pulling up to their house a little over an hour later, after stopping to get herself dinner, she saw that Kennedy’s vehicle was in the driveway. “Well shoot, I hope she wasn’t waiting long,” she commented, looking at Rowdy who just tilted his head at her. Shutting the vehicle off and getting out, Keeley grabbed her bags and dinner, and opened the back door for Rowdy to jump down. Hearing Kennedy shut her door she turned around, only for Rowdy to stand in front of her protectively. Smiling, she patted his head and told him, “She’s family.” Seeing Rowdy relax had Keeley relaxing, too.

  Seeing Kennedy’s shock at Rowdy had her worried, until she squealed out, “Oh my God, he’s freaking adorable!!” Running over she dropped down in front of him, about a foot away and held out her hand while cooing to him. When Rowdy looked to her she nodded, knowing that even though someone had abandoned him, he was going to be ok with her. He was a very smart boy. As he closed the gap to Kennedy, she admired his body. He was snow white in color with eyes nearly the same color as hers, crystal clear blue. She had to admit that’s what she liked most. He was a pretty healthy size and she hadn’t noticed any skittish tendencies in him, so that made her happy that wherever he was before they took good care of him, but it also made her wonder who could possibly abandon such a sweetheart.

  Kennedy interrupted her thoughts when she asked, “What’s his name and where did you get him?”

  Explaining how she came to find him and what the circumstances were, she started to worry that Nathaniel and Tyler wouldn’t accept him. “Do you think Tyler and Nathaniel will be angry with me? I never thought to
ask them. I just acted on impulse, they were going to kill him, and I couldn’t let that happen.” Keeley worried.

  “Oh please, you have those two wrapped around your little finger. Even if they hated dogs, which they don’t, they would still keep him. But seeing how protective he was when I got out, I’d say you have nothing to worry about. That alone will have him worming his way into their hearts,” she said smiling and laughing at Rowdy’s antics, as he roamed the yard sniffing and peeing on everything in sight, marking his territory.

  Getting up and making their way to the porch swing, they watched Rowdy for a bit before Keeley asked why she was here.

  “Oh, well, I knew they left and thought you might want some company. I should have called or texted first, but I was excited that we might have a girls’ night. But it’s getting late and we both have to work tomorrow, so maybe this weekend I’ll come over with some cheesy movies and we can veg out?” Kennedy asked her hopefully.

  “Yes, I would love that. I’ll meet you here after work on Friday night?”

  With a thumbs up, Kennedy said goodnight and made her way to her own car. Pulling out she honked her horn once and waved out the window.

  Getting up, Keeley went to grab all of Rowdy’s stuff from her SUV. “Come on boy, you help.” She laughed holding out a bag for him, shocked when he grabbed it and trotted up the steps to the front door. She yelled, “Where’d ya learn that trick?” Locking the SUV she made her way to the steps. Unlocking the door, Rowdy bounded into the house, heading straight for the kitchen. Smiling at his cleverness, she dropped his bed and toys in the living room, before going to the kitchen and putting his dog food in the pantry. After filling his bowl with food and getting him some water, Keeley sat down at the breakfast bar with her dinner.
