The Biker's Needs (Satan's Beasts MC: Nomad Chapter Book 2)
Page 3
Women were already dancing around them.
“You’re never short on company.”
“And yet, I came to you.”
“I know I’m nothing special.”
“You’re really underestimating yourself, and I don’t like it. You’ve got to learn to live a little.” He kissed her again.
This was starting to unnerve him a little. Here he was, kissing her, touching her, and he truly couldn’t get enough of her. No woman had ever made him feel like that, and he wasn’t sure if he liked it or not. He used women and always made sure they knew the score. Even Charlotte knew he was going to be leaving town. All he had to do was wait for Colonel to say the word, and they were out of there.
“My man, it’s about time you came back,” Skull said. “And who is this delightful woman? You’ve been keeping yourself something hot.”
Skull held out his hand and Charlotte took it.
“This is Charlotte. Back off, she’s not here to be shared.”
Skull pouted. “He always gets the best ones.”
Charlotte chuckled. “Nice to meet you.”
Ape introduced her to the rest of the guys and just as he was finished, Colonel and Piper came out of the hotel room. Both looking happy and thoroughly fucked.
He leaned in close. “See, she’s not mine but belongs to him. Colonel,” he said, nodding at his club president. “I’d like you both to meet Charlotte.”
Piper smiled and rushed over, drawing Charlotte into a hug.
“It’s so good to see you. You’re the reason Ape finally has a smile on his face.”
Colonel shook her hand.
“It’s nice to meet you both,” Charlotte said.
“I hate to break this up, but I’m starving. Enjoy yourself, Charlotte,” Colonel said.
He already had his hands on Piper’s shoulders and was marching her to the barbeque pit. His stomach rumbled and Charlotte turned around and put a hand on his chest. “I’m sorry.”
“What for?” he asked.
“For being a … judgmental bitch.” She shrugged. “I know. This shit with Calum has messed with my head.”
“Stop thinking about him. He’s been in your head for far too long. It’s time to let him out and to not give him the air space.”
She sighed. “You’re right. I’ve got a few things to think about with work and stuff.”
His curiosity was piqued. “What kinds of things?”
“It’s nothing.”
“Tell me.”
“The lease on my shop. It runs out in like two weeks. I don’t know if I’m going to bother to apply for another or to continue paying. I’ve got some decisions to make.” She shrugged. “Come on, I’m starving. Let’s eat.”
He dropped her bag by one of the chairs. With the guys around, no one would dare touch it.
Her lease was up.
Decisions had to be made.
Why was his first instinct to offer for her to come and join him? To spend time with him? Would it be so bad?
Licking his lips, he glanced at Colonel.
He’d only just met Charlotte, but his president had only known Piper for a couple of days before he’d decided he wanted her with him. The couple was inseparable, in love. So much in love it made them all a little embarrassed.
There was no way he could ask her. It would be a giant mistake, especially if he fucked up and they weren’t compatible. A few rolls in the sack didn’t exactly determine a great future relationship. Far from it.
Sitting down, he kept his ass firmly planted, but he couldn’t help but wonder, if even for a moment, what it would be like to be with her. To feel her around him as he rode his bike.
He joined her at the line for some food, his mind filled with thoughts and possibilities.
If it worked for Colonel, why couldn’t it work for him? He had what it took to make a relationship work. He wanted it to work.
After he got his food, he watched Charlotte with Piper and with the rest of the guys. They were all talking, enjoying conversation. She mixed well with all of them.
The real question was, did he want her enough to keep her?
****
“Are you drunk?” Ape asked.
In response, Charlotte closed the door with her foot and kissed him. “No, I’m not drunk. Not even a little tipsy.”
She’d had one beer.
Nothing else.
Ape picked her up and spun her around, making her giggle as he did so.
“Do you have any idea what it is you do to me?” he asked. As he sank his teeth into her neck, she moaned his name. He carried her over to the bed.
Within seconds, he had her clothes off and she fought to get him naked too.
No man had ever made her feel this way. So reckless and consumed, like she could do anything.
“Kneel on the bed,” he said.
Turning away from him, she knelt on the bed.
“Put your head down, ass up, let me see you, all of you.”
She followed his instructions, becoming more aroused with every passing second.
“You look so fucking pretty,” he said. “Your pussy is so wet.” He stepped up behind her and ran his finger from the top of her slit, sliding inside her, but he didn’t stop there. His finger grazed across her asshole.
She tensed up.
He chuckled. “I take it no man has ever tried to fuck you here.” He pressed against the puckered hole. “Relax. Tell me.”
“Tell you what?”
“Who has known this asshole?”
“No one.” She glanced over her shoulder. “Just you.”
“Oh, it’s going to be only me, baby.” He pushed his finger inside her and she cried out.
The sensation was a strange one. She wanted it to stop but also not, to feel him all the way around her.
He added a second finger to the first and started to stretch her out. His other hand went to her pussy, sliding three fingers inside her and then drawing them up to stroke her clit.
“I feel how wet you are for me, baby. I’m going to fuck your ass, claim you, and no other man is ever going to know how tight your asshole is. It’s going to be stamped with my name. You’re only going to know me.”
She whimpered as he pinched her clit, hard.
Wanting more of him. Desperate.
Several times, he brought her close to orgasm. Adding a third finger to her ass, he only continued torturing her with what he did to her clit.
“Please, Ape, please,” she said.
“Do you want to come?”
“Yes.”
He released her body and she went cold from the lack of touch.
She watched as he tore open a condom and slid it onto his cock. At first, he slammed to the hilt inside her, making her cry out.
“Fuck, your pussy is so ready, but tonight, I’m making that ass belong to me.” He pulled out of her pussy and the tip of his dick was right against her anus.
She moaned as he slowly started to sink inside her.
“Push out,” he said, growling the words.
As she followed his instruction, he pressed forward. Inch by inch, he filled her ass. One hand on her hip, the other on her clit, stroking her.
“Now, you can come and I’m going to feel it all over my dick.”
“Please,” she said.
“Come for me.” He stroked over and around, going back and forth, teasing her until she was so close to the edge, there was no way she could deny him. The moment she came, she heard him growl, but it didn’t matter. The strange sensation of having her asshole filled and the pleasure consuming her body was just too good.
Even before the final pulses of her orgasm were finished, he had hold of her hips and started to rock inside her, going deeper with every passing second.
He took her ass slowly, letting her become accustomed to him. The sheer size of him alone startled her, but he took his time, building her up, and when she thought he was ready to come, he surprised her by stroking her p
ussy again.
Ape brought her to a second orgasm and followed her into the abyss of pleasure. Afterward, they collapsed together on the bed. Both panting, needing air, but neither of them moving.
“I want to take you to the shower,” he said. “But I don’t know what state it is in. Piper said she cleaned it, but if Colonel distracted her, it may still have bugs in it.”
“I can’t move right now.”
They were silent.
She heard the ticking of a clock somewhere.
“That was incredible,” she said.
His cock was still inside her ass, but he propped himself up. One hand wrapped around her waist. “What will you do?” he asked.
“What do you mean?”
“If you don’t continue with your lease?”
“I don’t know. Probably do what I promised my mom I would.”
“Does your mom live in town?”
“She passed away a few years ago. She was sick for a long time.”
“I’m so sorry.”
“She was ready, even though she said life was way too short. She wasn’t the greatest mom in the beginning. For a long time, she lived her own life. When she got sick, and I took care of her, she became … someone I knew I’d miss.”
“What did you promise her you’d do?” he asked.
“It’s stupid.”
“Tell me.”
She licked her lips. There was nothing to lose. “I told her I wouldn’t stay in town. That I’d go and have an adventure. As a kid, I was always wandering off, doing whatever the hell I wanted. When she got sick, I stayed in one place. It was never my intention to still be here.” She shrugged. “Life throws us bumps in the road. We’ve just got to try and keep up. At least that’s what I keep telling myself.” She sighed. She lifted her arms above her head, trying to do anything to distract him from the very serious conversation. “Let’s go and see about that shower.”
Chapter Five
Ape checked over his bike as Piper came toward him. It had been four days since they had all met Charlotte, and each person said how great she was. She’d certainly fit in with the group. The morning after, she’d gone to the bakery and came back loaded up with coffee and baked treats. The guys would fall in love with any woman who brought food, especially if they didn’t have to go and get it.
Charlotte was a good woman. He liked her a lot.
“Hey,” Piper said.
“Hey.”
“Where’s Charlotte?”
“Probably working, why?”
“No reason.”
He glanced over his seat and looked at Piper. She sat on the ground, cross-legged, biting her lip.
“What is it?”
“I’m just wondering if you’re going to invite her, you know? To come with us in a couple of days.”
“What’s happening in a couple of days?” he asked.
“You don’t know?”
“Clearly not.”
“We’re moving on in a couple of days. I figured you and Charlotte had hit it off and, you know, I don’t see why she couldn’t come because she was talking about not continuing her lease, and getting the hell out of town—”
“Wait, what? When did you have time to talk to Charlotte?” he asked.
“While you were talking to Colonel. It’s not like it was a secret. We were sitting there chatting. Did you know how miserable she is here? Then there’s that guy. C something. Carl? No, that’s not right.”
“Calum?” he asked.
“Yeah, I heard about what that bastard did to her. Can you imagine? He’s been making her life miserable all because she won’t sleep with him again. How sucky is that?”
Ape clenched his jaw. He’d seen Calum a few times around town. On his arm had been the woman Charlotte had described. What he’d also noticed was the way Calum always looked at Charlotte. The bastard may have a different wife, but that didn’t mean his yearning for his woman had dissipated.
His woman.
Since when had Charlotte belonged to him?
He needed to clear his head. Get his shit together.
“Anyway, I just figured that you might invite her to join us,” Piper said. “It would be fun to have another woman on the road.”
“Not all women are like you,” he said.
“Then you need to talk to Charlotte because regardless of what you say, I think she’d be a really good fit. In fact, I don’t just think it, I know it. She craves traveling. What are your feelings?” Piper asked.
He started to laugh. “I don’t have to tell you.”
“I’m a friend and I can offer you advice.”
“No offense, but you were stuck in a town being treated like crap, and it was only when Colonel showed up that you even got out of that situation. I don’t need advice from you.”
“Whatever, I got out, and I’m the happiest I’ve ever been. What’s to say you won’t find the same kind of happiness, if you merely gave it a shot? I know you don’t think a woman’s place is on the road, but I’ve got a hunch Charlotte knows what she’s doing. You might want to ask her before you assume.” She got to her feet, and without saying anything more, left.
“She does like to throw a little wrench in the works doesn’t she?” Colonel said, coming up a few seconds later.
“You heard the advice I was getting?”
“Yeah.”
“Why didn’t you stop her?”
“She had a point.”
“No, she didn’t.”
Colonel laughed. “You’ve always been a stubborn asshole. Why not think about how it feels to be around Charlotte? I’ve seen you with her these past few days, and it’s the first time in years you’ve actually looked happy. Honest-to-God happy. Like you couldn’t imagine being anywhere else but with her.”
“I don’t love her. It’s just sex.”
“Okay, fine. So, you don’t mind leaving her behind. Thinking of that man—Calum, is it?—wearing her down until he gets her as his own personal fuck toy.”
“Stop it,” Ape said.
“You feel that anger, that rage. The need to go and pummel the shit out of that asshole, or better yet, to go and grab your woman and mark her so everyone in the world knows who she belongs to. That’s important, Ape. It’s not to be ashamed of. We’re leaving in a couple of days and we’re never stepping foot back here again. Make sure you can walk away and not regret it.”
Colonel turned on his heel and got a few steps before Ape called out to him.
“How did you know with Piper?”
“Know what?”
“This would work with her. That you could give her this life.”
“Damn, you’re even more fucking clueless than I thought.” Colonel laughed, shaking his head. “I didn’t know this would work. I didn’t think about the future, Ape. What I knew was I didn’t want no other man touching what belonged to me, and Piper, she’s mine. Everything else didn’t matter. I couldn’t leave her behind. If you can walk away from Charlotte, imagine her with another man, and you don’t care, then leave her be. If it kills you and you want to go and murder the bastard, then you’ve got a choice to make. I’m not making it for you. So, tell me, Ape. What are you feeling right now, imagining that guy or any guy, making her smile, touching her, being with her?”
“Fuck off,” Ape said.
“Then that’s your answer and it’s up to you to see what you do about it.” Colonel followed after Piper and it didn’t take a genius to figure out what those two would be doing. It wasn’t like they needed a bed to do it either.
Sitting back against his bike, he thought about Charlotte. The jealousy that filled him at imagining that asshole taking her, he didn’t like it.
She was his and there was no way Ape was going to walk away from it.
****
Charlotte glanced at the time to see Ape would be picking her up in thirty minutes. The last of her clients had already left, and she was alone, packing up the rest of the shop. She’d already packed
up the equipment and phoned ahead to cancel any other appointments. The sign had been removed outside and she was slowly packing up a time in her life that hadn’t exactly filled her with happiness.
Seeing her clients happy with the artwork and displaying her pieces for customers to see, and for them to pick to have permanently marked on their skin, that was an achievement. Those were the few moments she’d miss more than anything.
She could still draw and practice. Running fingers through her hair, she gave a turn around and rather than be sad with her decision, she was happy she’d made it.
Moving behind the desk, she bent down to grab her bag as the doorbell rang, letting her know someone had entered the shop.
She stood with a smile but it dropped when she caught sight of Calum.
“I’m closed.”
“I can see that. What is going on? Refurbishment?”
“Nope,” she said. She folded her arms beneath her breasts, waiting for whatever snide comment he had to make. “What do you want?”
“I came to see why the sign was gone. All your artwork.”
She laughed. “You’re kidding, right? You’ve been trying to get me to move my ass out of here and now you want to know why I’m doing exactly that.”
“Our last meeting, you told me to get fucked and that you weren’t going anywhere.”
“Oh, times change. I decided that I don’t need to stay here. I’m moving on. The lease for this place is up. There’s no way in hell I’m going to pay twice as much for the same space. Also, while we’re at it, the lease on my apartment is also up. I will be a problem you won’t ever have to face again.” She smiled, happy, exhilarated.
“What about your mom?”
“My mom wanted me to get out town, long before now. I just kept sticking to the same norm.”
“Look, if there’s money you need, I can give it to you.”
“Hell, no. I’d like you to get out. Until Friday, this place is still mine, and I don’t want any cheating scum setting foot on my property. So, off you go, leave.” She didn’t want him anywhere near her, and the further away he got, the better she would be.
“You know I didn’t mean to hurt you.”
“Oh, my, can you even listen to yourself?” she asked. “I’m not hurt. I don’t even care. It sucked because I felt guilty for your wife, but you? She can have you. Believe me, there was nothing better than having an excuse to end it with you.”
