We’d grown up here in Parker, Nevada. Con and I had been best buds from the get-go, and when both of us lost families early on, we’d stuck together like our own little family. Bikes were in our blood early on, but so was fierce independence, which is probably why we’d stuck around a town like Parker, which was home to more than a few outlaw and off-the-grid types, along with people who just wanted to be free.
Suited us pretty good.
We’d tried to patch in to a few clubs, but honestly, it’d never stuck. Guess we had a bit too much of that independent streak for even most bike clubs. So, we’d started our own two-man team. Con and I had grown up rough, and we weren’t afraid of the outlaw life. Drugs we stayed the fuck away from, but we had our fingers in pretty much everything else - ran some guns for a few cartels, did the odd security gig for underground card games, and maybe even the odd smack-down if the price was right.
We weren’t going to get rich doing this shit, but it afforded us the life we needed. Gas for the bikes, drinks when we got thirsty, pussy when we needed it, and the freedom of the open road.
How many fuckers with a nine-to-five job and a 401k can say they’ve got nothing tying them down?
I could see the sign of the old Lux Oil station up ahead as we roared around the bend. The place had been empty for years, but Con and I had both had our first jobs changing oil and pumping gas at that place when we were kids. We still pulled in sometimes on our way back through town to take a beer break.
Also a great place to bring chicks, I might add.
Today wasn’t going to be one of those days though, because today we were on a job. I’d never really been a fan of the “find and retrieve” type gigs we got from time to time, especially when it was from those wannabe mob fuckers. It was also some poor shit-head who couldn’t pay his loanshark back, or some guy who’d looked a the wrong guy the wrong way, or some other macho bullshit like that. But the call we’d got last night from the guy who said he worked “for the family” had been too good to ignore when he’d named his price.
Fifty-fucking-grand was a lot of cash just to find some girl.
I didn’t know who this chick was and why anyone would pay that kind of cash for her, but fuck it - wasn’t my job to think past finding the silver Honda she’d last been seen in.
Like the fuckin’ one parked right there at the old Lux station.
Holy fuck.
Connor and I looked at each other at the same damn time as we roared past the place, and I saw him nod, his face grim. I mean what were the fucking odds that the very girl we were looking for would drive through Parker instead of taking the highway? I nodded back as we both slowed at the same time, before we pulled a turn in the road and started to head back. Hell, it might not be here, but damned if we weren’t going to check those plates and make sure. I reached back into the saddlebag on the bike behind me, loosening the pistol from the holster it was buckled into. The chances of having to use it were pretty fucking slim, but I always erred on the side of being prepared.
I kept my hand on the gun as we pulled in and slowed to a stop. And then I almost had to grin as I saw the girl that matched the very description we were looking for, sitting in the car with the same damn plates we were looking for.
Yeah, this was about to be the easiest fifty thousand buck we’d ever made.
“So now what.”
I took a deep breath as I watched Abby’s car pull out of the gas station and trail off down the road. I reached into my pocket and pulled my pack of smokes out, sticking one in my mouth as I glanced at Connor. “She doesn’t know.”
He snorted and snatched the pack from my hand. “No shit, man. I mean now what the fuck are we gonna do.”
I sparked my lighter, holding the flame to the end of the cigarette and inhaling before tossing it to Con. “Jesus Christ, what’s a girl that looks like that doing getting caught up with the fuckin mob?”
And the bruises. I know we’d both seen them - the ones on her arms and the swelling around her eye she’d tried to hide with sunglasses and her hair - and I knew it hit a chord with both of us. We’d both come from families of men who hit women. My dad had the decency to develop a heroine addiction and die young, Connor’s had taken his mother and him both off the side of a highway doing one-twenty.
Fuck that shit.
The guys who’d called us had said this girl Abby had “wronged” the family, and “tried to hurt important members.” Yeah, I called bullshit on that. That girl hand’t tried to hurt anyone, and I knew we both damn well knew it.
And of course, there was another thing I knew we both damn well knew.
I hadn’t know what to expect when we rolled into that gas station, but the second she stepped out of that car - man, I was a goner. I’d seen and I’d certainly fucked my share of hot girls in my time, but fuck me, Abby was something else.
“Jesus, man. She was perfect.” I nodded as I turned and cocked a brow at Connor. The look on his face said it all, and I got it because it was the same damn thing I was thinking.
Floored. I couldn’t remember feeling an inch of what I was feeling inside about Abby with any other girl. Not ever. Here I was watching her drive away - the girl I was being paid to hunt down and apprehend - and I couldn’t remember feeling this light before.
Course, I was also hard as a fucking rock inside my jeans. I’d been that way since the second she stepped out of that car. Something about her was so damn innocent, and wholesome, and yet captivatingly sexy at the same time. She came off as worldly and yet pure, and I’d never seen that in a woman.
And I knew Connor hadn’t either, just looking at his face.
Con was my best friend, and yeah, over the years, we’d certainly shared a few girls - more than a few at the same time. Shit, I mean the guy was like my brother - what was mine was his and vice versa. But just looking at his face and the way his jaw tensed as we watched her drive away, I knew this was a new development. Sure, we’d fucked girls at the same time before, but we’d never felt for the same girl.
“We can’t do this job, man,” I said, shaking my head as Abby’s taillights dipped over the horizon.
“Fuck no,” Connor growled. He turned to me. “Jesus fuck man, that girl got into me.”
I nodded. “Same.”
He chuckled. “Yeah, no shit.”
“So what do we do? Pretend we never saw her?”
Connor shook his head. “I have to see her again.” He growled, his hand dropping to the front of his jeans and cupping the bulge there.
I felt the same damn way. It was like she’d ignited some sort of fire in both of us - like she’d woken up the beast inside each of us, and that beast demanded more from her.
“We’ll keep an eye on her. If she leaves tonight, that’s it, man. We’re not chasing this girl down or anything.”
Connor shook his head. “Fuck no, she’s been through enough. But if she stays?”
“If she stays, we make sure those fuckers didn’t send or pay anyone else to grab her.”
Connor looked at me as he flicked his cigarette away, his eyes flashing. “Not gonna fuckin happen, brother.”
I nodded. “Damn right. We’ll chill in town tonight, and see what happens tomorrow.”
Chapter 4
Abby
I’d left in a hurry, and even though my credit card was tucked inside my purse, I knew I couldn’t use that. Credit cards left trails, and trails were something I couldn’t afford to leave - not with a family like the DeMona’s possibly looking for me. So that left cash, and cash was going to run out sooner than later.
“You okay, hon?”
The middle-aged woman behind the desk of motel office who had to be the Marge that Jackson and Connor had told me about gave me a concerned look. Her gaze locked onto the bruising around my eye before I remembered it was there.
I should get some concealer or something.
I smiled as best I could at the woman. “Oh, yeah,” I rolled my eyes, forcing out a we
ak laugh. “Stupid mistake, really. I was painting, and I wasn’t looking where I was going, and-”
“That’s okay, honey,” she said softly, reaching out and patting my hand and giving me a knowing look.
Don’t cry, don’t you fucking cry.
“Been there, honey,” she said with a motherly nod. She quietly shook her head and pushed the crumpled bills I’d given her for the room back across the counter-top. “Why don’t we say tonight’s on me, okay?”
I shook my head. “No, really-”
“I insist,” she said with another shake of her head, passing me a key.
“I-” I could feel the lump rising in my throat. “I can pay you back.”
“I said it was on me,” she winked before giving me a more serious look. “Anyone I should be looking out for and denying ever seeing you too?”
I choked out a laugh. “I hope not.”
“Well get some rest, sweetheart. Ring if you need anything at all, okay?”
“I-” I took a shaky breath. “Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it, honey. Get some rest, and I promise you’ll feel a lot better.”
Sleep wasn’t exactly going to come easy that night, I knew that much. But the hot shower and the robe on the back of the door felt divine. I sank down on the edge of the bed, finally letting myself exhale a bit more of the stress that’d been riding my shoulders since I’d left two nights before.
I grinned when I saw the mini-bar.
Fuck it. I’d never been one to even open mini-bars - I wasn’t even really much of a drinker. But that night? Yeah, consider me part of the club.
The motel rooms all had these skylights in the ceiling up above the bed - which made sense since the place was actually called the “Full Moon Motel”. And so I turned the lights off as I cracked the little nip bottle of tequila from the mini-bar and dumped it over the little plastic cup of ice, and sat back in the bed to look up at the big desert moon.
My thoughts were still jumbled from the events of the last few days, but the tequila quickly let me relax. And then before I could stop myself, I found my thoughts drifting back to earlier.
Back to Jackson and Connor.
I still felt strange thinking such - well, heated thoughts about other men so soon after leaving Joe. But I couldn’t help it. They were there, stuck my head, and I couldn’t get them out. I didn’t want to, either. I thought of Jackson, and his bright blue eyes blazing and his muscles rippling as he’d stepped towards my car. I thought of Connor and his pulled back hair, his rugged, rough beard. I thought of the swirls of dangerous and captivating ink trailing over their skin, and wondering what it looked like on parts of their bodies I hadn’t seen.
In the heat of the motel room, my thoughts lingered on their faces, and on those hard, chiseled bodies, and my own began to respond.
I closed my eyes as I let my hand trace down the front of my torso, and as it slipped under the seam of my simple cotton panties, I sucked my bottom lip between my teeth.
There was sensation of release, of a clenching fist allowed to let go as my fingers glided over my moist lips, down into the folds of my pussy. I let my middle finger curl through the wetness there and slide gently up to tease the aching nub of my clit, bringing a soft moan to my lips.
I knocked back the rest of my tequila and set the glass on the beside table. I rolled in my bed, on to my stomach as I arched my back and moaned quietly into the pillow. My eyes squeezed shut as I bit my bottom lip against the gasps bubbling from my mouth. I writhed, tangled in the duvet with my feet twisting the blankets into binds around my ankles. My hands and fingers pressed and swirled beneath me in slow deliberate circles, pressing gently against the throbbing button within my folds and sending electric shivers through my core.
My mind flashed like fire between the two men from earlier. First, it was Jackson, his eyes flashing as he stripped his clothes off. I gasped loudly as I pushed two fingers into my slit, and I arched my ass up off the bed as I crammed face into the pillow, moaning my pleasure. My tousled hair splayed out around me and down my back as I writhed with the sensations, imagining it was the blond biker taking me hard from behind, his thick cock driving into me again and again.
Connor’s face filled my mind; his piercing eyes, and that gorgeous, roguish smile. I imagined him pulling me to his mouth, the rough bristle of his beard teasing my thighs as his wet tongue curled into my pussy, his hands spreading me wide. I pictured him pulling me down on his cock, pounding up into me as I cried out for him.
I pressed my curved hips back against my toying hands, feeling my pussy clench and my cream slide wetly down my fingers as I buried them in my folds. I was close, so damn close to that sweet edge. I moaned in delightful agony, crying my lust into my pillow, my fingers pushing inside me and the others on my clit drove me higher and higher.
And that’s when my thoughts went even dirtier - to a place I’d never let them go before. In that moment, I thought of both of them, at the same damn time.
God did it feel so dirty, and so wrong. But my body cried out as I imagined both hard, muscled, hot men taking me together. It wasn’t a fantasy I’d ever had, and not one I’d ever have imagined myself having in a million years. But there in that desert motel room, under that full moon with tequila on my lips and my fingers on my clit, I felt myself start to slide over the edge as I let the fantasy consume me.
My cries seized in my throat as I gasped my release, feeling my body surge and clench, feeling the heat from my lips bloom out to my whole body as my climax rocked through me. I imagined both of them, pounding me, fucking me, making me theirs, and the moans in my throat burbled to the surface. I screamed, muffling and growing it in the thick pillows on the bed as I writhed and shuddered.
Chapter 5
Connor
Fuck, this was a tough one.
I shook my head as I slugged down the last of my beer. “You don’t think those mob douchebags actually hired more than just us, do you?”
Jackson didn’t say anything, but I recognized that look on his face. It was that look that mirrored my own thoughts, however unspoken. It was the look that said “over my dead fucking body if they did.”
‘Cause that’s how it was going to be if there was anyone else after Abby besides us. We had our bikes parked across the road from the Full Moon Motel, leaning against them and sipping beers as we kept an eye on the place - specifically room five. Anyone else who was after her as gonna be in for a bad fuckin time if they tried anything tonight, I knew that. Because if they wanted to get to her, they were going to have to go through both of us.
And that shit wasn’t going to happen.
I’d felt the same damn thing Jackson had when she’s stepped out of that car and into our lives earlier. It was like the damned Earth stopped turning for a second - like time itself stopped. Shit, I’d known some women in my day, but one look at Abby and I knew everything else had been bullshit up until then. One look at her, and I felt a need for her - something fucking primal and something that wouldn’t be stopped.
Of course it was sexual, but it was bigger than that. It pulled something deep inside that I’d forgotten about. She made me think of family - something I’d forced myself to forget about since my old man had gotten ripped and driven him and my mom off a fuckin’ cliff. Yeah, I had Jackson, who was basically my brother and the only family I needed, but this girl brought out more than that.
And yeah, it was sexual too. Fuck yeah was it sexual. Abby got my cock harder than Goddamn steel. I’d known some babes in my day, but they were fuckin trash compared to this girl. Curves in all the right places, tits that made my mouth water, and ass I was dying to get a piece of. I wanted to bury my dick to the hilt inside her, nail her to the fuckin ground and take her hard. I wanted to own her - to dominate and take her completely.
There’d been a moment out here earlier when she’d started to strip down in her room with the blinds wide open. And I wish we could’ve said we were bigger men and looke
d away but fuck that. Hell yeah we’d looked, both of us growling as she slipped down to her little black panties and bra. And I knew we wanted more, but that’s when she’d grabbed a towel presumably for a shower and closed the blinds.
Still, a man could think.
“Think she’s asleep?”
I shook my head. “Nah, lights are still on.”
“I don’t see the t.v. flickering either,” Jackson growled. “And I seriously doubt she’s on the phone with anyone. She’s too smart for that.”
I shrugged. “Maybe air-drying after that shower?”
Jackson groaned. “Jesus man, don’t put that in my head.”
I snorted. “Be my guest, it’s been in mine for the last twenty minutes. Don’t even pretend that’s not something you’d want to see.”
Jackson tossed me a look. “Yeah, I’d want to do a whole lot more than see, brother.”
“Tell me about it,” I growled, my hand dropping to the thick bulge in my jeans. “Can you even image what those tits look like outside a tank top?”
“I was too busy imagining how tight that pussy probably is.”
I swore under my breath. “Dude, I can’t even imagine.”
He laughed. “Sure you can.”
I looked over and smirked as I saw my buddy stroking the obvious hard-on in his jeans. “Nice thought, huh?”
He grinned at me and shrugged as he tossed me another beer. “I’m only human, dude, and it’s been way too long.”
“Tell me about it,” I growled, cracking the beer as he did the same. “Fuck I’d love to feel that pouty mouth on my cock.”
Jackson groaned again. “Fuck that’d be nice.”
