Beautiful Surrender (Pride and Honor Book 4)

by Ember-Raine Winters

  “You are so fucking beautiful,” he said as he thrust his huge cock inside of me and hissed. “God you’re so tight and perfect. I could stay right here for the rest of my life and I would be happy.”

  He hovered over me and I met him thrust for thrust. Reaching up I pulled his hair roughly. “Flip us over. I want to ride you.”

  “Yes ma’am.” He smiled and pulled me to him before rolling so he was on his back. “You have too many clothes on. I want that shirt off so I can see those big beautiful tits.”

  Reaching down, I lifted my shirt slowly as I bounced up and down on his cock, circling his hips. After I pulled my shirt over my head, I flung it away and his mouth was on me pulling my nipple between his teeth. I nearly came undone at the pleasure mixed with pain.

  CHAPTER NINE

  TREY

  This girl.

  I was in heaven watching an angel ride me like she couldn’t get enough of me. It was the sexiest thing I had ever seen in my life and I nearly came on the spot. Sitting up, I took her nipple between my teeth and she moaned loudly. I needed to take control back or this was going to end well before I wanted it to. In truth, I never wanted it to end. I felt something primal when I was with her and it was driving me insane. I had a feeling that we were going to be fighting for dominance and that was just fine by me. I could play. This girl had no idea the things I could do. I flipped us back over making sure my hand was behind her head so she didn’t hit the floor. I never stopped sucking and biting that nipple that tasted like the sweetest honey. Her skin was my new favorite snack, and I would never stop craving it. Her hands were pulling my hair and the bite of pain just made me want her more.

  Ramming into her, I could feel that she was close. Her muscles were milking my cock and it took every bit of concentration not to come right then. When her juices flooded me, I lost it. Grabbing her hands from my hair and pinning them to the floor above her head, I picked up my rhythm. I pulled all the way out and rammed back in at a punishing rate. Her eyes were squeezed shut and she was keening. Her orgasm seemingly going on and on, one going directly into the next. The grin I shot her was devilish. When she finally started to come down and looked up into my eyes, the lust in them sent me over the edge and I came shouting her name. Collapsing to the side of her so I didn’t crush her, I laughed. “You’re so fucking incredible.”

  “Mmm,” was the only thing she said. She had a sleepy expression on her face.

  “We didn’t even make it to the bed, and we probably gave everyone else at the minimum an audio show,” I chuckled.

  “Beds are overrated, and I bet Marcy and Mac are enjoying themselves. Poor Griff,” she giggled.

  Getting reluctantly to my feet, I got rid of the condom and scooped her up into my arms. “What are you doing?”

  “Taking you to bed. You look boneless. Like you just got thoroughly fucked.”

  “Mm… I did,” she said sleepily and snuggled into my arms.

  That one statement hit me right in the chest. Proud. I may have put a little more swagger in my step after hearing that. I just couldn’t believe that this incredible woman wanted me. But the question that ran through my head on a loop, was whether she was going to let herself have what she wanted. I had a feeling deep in my gut that no matter how much I wanted her, this was going to be a bumpy ride, one I’d go through every bit of drama as long as in the end she was with me and no longer running.

  Laying her down on the bed, I grabbed the blankets and got in behind her wrapping my body around hers. I was content to stay there with her and fell asleep almost instantly.

  **

  Something was wrong. I knew before I ever opened my eyes. The early morning light was shining in my eyes and I groaned as I sat up and stretched my muscles. I looked over at the empty bed next to me and it hit me. It was cold to the touch. She must have slipped out in the middle of the night. I cursed and flung the comforter off of me. “This is gonna be awkward.”

  That woman was trying my patience. I needed to figure out what it was she was so scared of. Her fear in those clear blue eyes anytime she thought I was getting too close was obvious, and I needed to find out how to put her at ease.

  My relationship with Shelby was never supposed to be a long-lasting one; it wasn’t anything like my brother had with Kaylee. That’s what I wanted. Kenzie was everything I wanted, and I would be damned if I was going to let her fear get in the way of what could possibly be forever.

  I dressed quickly and ran down the stairs to the living room where everyone was already sitting. “It’s not even nine yet.”

  “I got a call this morning,” Kenzie replied looking down at the table.

  “And? What’s going on?”

  “They are moving Kaylee and Tasha to Mexico. They are going to abort the babies and sell the women to the drug cartel.”

  “What the fuck? Why are we just sitting here?”

  “We’re waiting for Keller to call us back.” Griffin clapped me on the shoulder, hard. I could see the barely controlled rage simmering just below the surface.

  “We have to get them out, today,” Marcy said with conviction.

  “So, why are we waiting on Keller?”

  Kenzie answered, “Because, in order for this to work, we have to get Twitch out at the same time. As of now, Barnes no longer has the ability to move the kids. That’s all in the hands of the pirates. But, Twitch? He’ll be moved if we get the women out first, so we need to time this just right.”

  Grabbing my phone, I dialed Keller. Everyone was looking at me curiously but I didn’t care. I knew they had already called him. I was impatient like that.

  “Trey, I’m working on it,” he said exasperated into the phone.

  “You need to work faster. We have to get to them before they reach the border. My little niece or nephew’s life is on the line.”

  “I know. It’s still early here. I’m calling in every officer that I trust to go raid this place with me. I also have to check in with the police department in Mohave to get permission to raid the shitty little shack in the desert.”

  “Get it done. If we don’t get there before Barnes moves them, then we may never find them again.”

  “I promise you, Trey. I will get everything in order in time for you to move on the girls and do everything in my power to get Dylan out of there.”

  “Okay, I guess I will talk to you soon then.”

  “All right. Talk to you later.” He cut the connection.

  I flopped on the couch next to Kenzie completely defeated and put my hands over my face. This was getting worse and worse. I felt a hand squeeze my knee and looked over at my girl. It was such an innocent gesture of comfort that it completely took me by surprise, especially coming from her.

  “We will get them back,” she said with determination and I found myself wondering who she was trying to convince. Me? Or herself?

  “You’re damn right we will, and Barnes and everyone he’s ever loved are going to pay for what he did. This bastard isn’t just going down. I am going to destroy him for trying to kill my family.”

  CHAPTER TEN

  KENZIE

  Trey was kind of scary when he was plotting the total annihilation of another human being. At the same time, it was sexy as hell. I found myself squeezing my thighs together in attempt to cool my hormones down a bit, knowing full well that having sex with him had been a bad idea. It made me feel things and I acted out of character. Offering comfort? That wasn’t like me. I was getting in too deep. I knew I should run as fast and as far as I could but for the first time, I didn’t want to. I found myself wondering what it would be like to stay in one place and develop friendships, have a relationship. The idea wasn’t a completely repulsive one. And wasn’t that a shock.

  “So we have four people now instead of three?” I asked eyeing Griffin. He looked to be warring with himself, the indecision in his eyes. The need to rescue everyone was getting to the leader of this little grou
p and I wondered how long it would be before he completely cracked under the pressure.

  “Get Tom on the phone. Tonight we go after the girls. Tomorrow we hop on a plane with SEAL team six and go get our kids back,” Trey said with determination.

  “What do you mean, we?” The way Griffin was looking at Trey indicated a story that I’m not sure anyone was aware of… at least I wasn’t.

  “Since we are getting everyone out tonight, there’s no reason I can’t go to Somalia and help you get the kids back.”

  “Yes, there is a reason. Don’t make me spell this out, Trey.”

  “No there’s not,” Trey bit out angrily. “I have been on missions with you and nothing has happened before. I’ve got it under control. I’m going with you.”

  Looking around at everyone, my initial impression was correct; I wasn’t the only one confused.

  “We are going into enemy territory Trey. If you have an attack it could endanger everyone. Not just you.”

  Trey took a step forward, getting closer to Griffin. The anger and heat pouring off him was evident, but Griffin wasn’t moving. “I haven’t had one in years, Griffin,” Trey bellowed. “I have been in enemy territory before and nothing happened.”

  “You had time to acclimate before. We don’t have time to let you adjust this time.” Griffin shook his head sadly. “The kids are the main focus here, and if you have an episode it could endanger us all.”

  “This is bullshit and you know it, Griff.”

  “Is it?” Griffin and Trey were nose to nose at this point and I was even more confused as the argument went. What kind of episode or attack was he referring to? Marcy looked just as shocked, so I was thinking it wasn’t an emotional problem. “Look what happened to Mom, and why do you think they wouldn’t let you enlist?”

  “I’m a lot stronger than Mom was. I’ve made sure of it,” Trey grounded out.

  They looked like they were about to throw down.

  “Whoa guys. Just calm down. We will work this shit out, okay?” I said as I attempted to move between them, pushing on Trey’s chest, but it was like he was carved from stone. “Trey. Look at me. It’s fine. Come on let’s go outside and calm down.”

  He finally looked down at me and his eyes were like emeralds, so beautiful but cold and hard at the same time. It only took a moment for them to soften and he reached a hand up to mine that was resting on his chest.

  “I think you’re right. Let’s go calm down.” He pulled our hands down and led me through the back door as Griffin stomped down the hall towards the bedrooms, where I was sure he was probably going to rip one of the rooms apart in frustration.

  “Wanna tell me what that was all about?” I asked as I sat on the steps to the covered porch.

  “No.”

  “I kind of think I should know, don’t you?”

  “It doesn’t matter. I haven’t had an issue since high school. Griffin likes to use it as an excuse to keep me away from the really dangerous missions.”

  “What is it? C’mon.” I pushed at his shoulder in an attempt to diffuse his anger further. “Ya’ know you wanna tell me.”

  He let out a soft grunt of laughter. “I was diagnosed with severe childhood asthma. My mom had all kinds of allergies and the family always treated me like I was breakable because of it. I haven’t had an attack since my freshman year in high school. After that, I started working out a lot and conditioning my body, doing anything I could to keep it from ever acting up—and it hasn’t,” he said with fierce determination.

  And there was the missing piece of the puzzle, the reason he didn’t go into the military like his brother who he idolized. “And to add insult to injury, the military wouldn’t take you because of it.” I sighed feeling something I hadn’t felt since I was a kid… empathy. I reached over and brushed the hair from his face and his eyes closed.

  “Yes,” he said quietly. It was as if all the anger had leached out of him.

  “I’m sorry. Let’s just get through today and then you can hash all this out with Griffin after.”

  “All right,” he sighed and he pulled me in and hugged me close. It was such a shock that I nearly pulled away, but stopped myself, after wondering when the last time someone hugged me like that. “Let’s go make a plan and get the girls back.”

  CHAPTER ELEVEN

  TREY

  I was pissed. Griffin could tell I was mad, but I put all of my anger and frustration into the plan to rescue Kaylee and Tasha. Kenzie was so different. Just hugging her had made me feel things deep inside that I didn’t have time to think about at the moment. Even though she stiffened at first, an almost imperceptible flinch, she then relaxed into it. I’d take a win wherever I could.

  Kenzie motioned me over to where she was standing over her laptop on the desk. “Marie emailed me some schematics along with guard placement and a route that they are taking in case we don’t make it before they leave.”

  “Are we sure we can trust her?” Mac questioned. “I mean, I knew her as a kid but not very well.”

  Griffin stomped back in the room, coming over to join us at the desk. “We don’t have much of choice. She is our best chance to get them back.”

  “I agree. We can always adjust our plan if the need arises,” I said thoughtfully. “The only thing that matters is that the girls are there and we have to get to them.”

  We sat there for an hour going over every possible plan we could think of until my phone started ringing. Looking down, I smiled when I saw it was Keller.

  “Keller, what do you got for me?”

  “I got a couple detectives and we are headed to Mohave.”

  “You got permission to go in and get him?”

  “Yeah, we will have him out by the end of the night.”

  “Thank God. Okay let us know when you have him. Thanks again, Captain.”

  I felt a hand on my back and smiled down at Kenzie. Relief was coursing through me. We were gonna have all the adults back by the end of the day. “He’s got his men on the way to the desert to get Twitch.”

  An audible sigh went through the room, the relief on everyone’s faces said it all. This damn situation was almost over. With two major players on our side, we were getting our family back. Soon we would all be able to breathe again without looking over our shoulders every five minutes. I just hoped that once we got them back Kenzie wouldn’t take off. The thought made me blanch.

  “What’s wrong?” she whispered quietly in my ear.

  “Nothing, just an errant thought. It’s fine.” I tried to smile but it fell flat and she looked at me with a puzzled frown.

  “Okay.”

  “Kenzie, how much firepower do you have in that Mary Poppins bag of yours?” Griffin laughed when she grinned slyly. I was still pissed at him, but happy at least he was back and working with us.

  “Unfortunately, I don’t have much, traveling with explosives is a bitch.” We all laughed at that, which was a good thing. The tension had been running too high, especially after the fight.

  “Is there a weapons room here like at the other house?” Marcy asked suddenly.

  “Yeah,” I said, having nearly forgotten. “Brock emailed me all the pass codes. What are we thinking? Shock and awe? Or, are we trying to be stealthy?”

  “Marie’s plans say there are way too many guards for the four of us to take on alone. I think we need to draw them out,” Griffin said with a glint in his eye that I didn’t recognize.

  “I can definitely distract them. It’s my specialty.” Kenzie rubbed her hands together grinning like an evil mastermind and I thought, not for the first time, that I was glad that she was on our side.

  “You’re kinda scary sometimes.” Mac chuckled.

  She went down to sit on the edge of the couch next to him, teasing. “Aw, you know you like it when I blow shit up.”

  “It is a great distraction,” I said, giving her a wink, and I had to bite my tongue from telling her the
re was a much better distraction of the exploding variety, but now wasn’t really the time. My thoughts must have shown on my face because she looked away.

  “There’s a barn not too far back on the property where Brock said we’d find everything that we need.” Kenzie said after a minute, lifting herself off the arm rest.

  “Good, why don’t you two go pick up some things and I will get in touch with Tom,” Griffin instructed.

  “I’m going to Somalia, Griffin.” He was to understand that I was not backing down. With Mac out, my brother needed to get over his fear; he knew we’d never succeed without the extra man power, he was just stuck in the past. “There is no way I am letting you go alone when you have no idea who is on your side. You need someone to have your back.”

  Griffin shook his head in exasperation. I knew what he was thinking. He was my brother, we had been inseparable since childhood, with the exception of his time in the military. The gears were turning in his head and he was looking for a way out of this. Any possible way around me going. I waited patiently, knowing that he wouldn’t come up with anything. He finally sighed and shook his head in defeat. “Okay, you’re coming then.”

  “Me too,” Kenzie piped in.

  “No,” we both yelled at the same time.

  “Really?” Her hands were on her hips, looking like the Barbie badass she was.

  “Barbie, you need to stay here. We have to get all the information on Barnes together and get it out in the open when we get the kids back,” Griffin stated calmly but I could tell his patience was wearing thin.

  “Come on, Kenzie. Let’s go look at the pretty explosives,” I teased then grabbed her arm and dragged her out the back door.
