Pulling Her Trigger
Page 8
“It’s over, Mackenzie.”
“It won’t be over until I’m gone. They’ll find that gun at some point and then all of it blows back on everything I love. Including you.”
Her words rock my soul. “You’re not listening to me, Casper.” I use her road name so she knows I’m serious. “It’s over. I took care of it.”
A look of confusion washes over her face.
“How?”
“You think I would ever let them take you from me? Before I get up every morning and put on that badge, I’m between your legs. You’re the first thing I see, the first thing I taste before I walk out that door. When I come home at night and I take that badge off, you’re the last thing I touch, the last thing I taste, and the last thing I see before I close my eyes. My whole goddamn world begins and ends with you, and that fucking badge is always second. Nothing and no one will ever take you from me. You got that?”
She nods her head, and I lean down close to her so I can feel her breath against my lips.
“You don’t ever run from me again. You hear me?” She nods her head again. “You ever think about running again, it better be in my motherfucking direction. I’m the one you run to when shit goes down. Do you understand?”
“Yes,” she whispers.
“Yes, what?”
“Yes, Vincent,” she says a little louder, and I can feel her body stir under mine.
“I found the gun. You won’t ever have to worry about that catching up to you again. That’s over and done with and you’re free.”
At hearing my words, she lets out a breath, and I crush my lips to hers. Our kiss is one of relief and passion and it ignites everything inside me. Mackenzie must feel it too, because her legs wrap around me and lock at my waist. I let her arms go, grabbing her hips and her arms curl around my neck.
I can taste the blood from my busted lip in our kiss, and it spurs my need for her. It makes me remember how close I was to losing her and how much I need her. I lean back, breaking our kiss, and unbuckle my belt. Mackenzie is already on the same page as I see her unbuckling her belt and turning over on her stomach. She pushes her jeans down to just below her cheeks and sticks her ass in the air, giving me access. I pull out my hard, angry cock and position it at her opening, feeling her dripping pussy kiss the tip of my cock.
“Thought you could run from me? You’re still dripping with my cum from this morning. Maybe you need more to remind you who you belong too,” I groan, thrusting home in one stroke.
We are both still fully clothed as I fuck her hard into the cot. Her face presses against the bare mattress, and leaning over her, gripping the sides of the rack. It makes all kinds of noise, but I don’t give a fuck. I hope the whole goddamn world hears how hard I’m fucking her. Because she’s mine. I’m claiming her as mine, and making sure anyone who gets near her knows it.
As I fuck her harder and harder I hear her screams of ecstasy. I feel her pussy grip me and she arches further into me, cumming hard and fast. I feel her tight cunt squeeze my dick, and my balls draw up as my orgasm hits me. I cum deep and hard inside her, and I let out an angry growl as I unload. I’m rough on her body, but we both need it.
As we come down from the high, I bend over her more to catch my breath. I give her gentle kisses on the side of her neck and she leans into my touch.
“I love you,” she whispers, and I smile against her skin.
“I love you too, Mackenzie,” I say and continue spreading gentle kisses on her neck and cheek.
After a few moments I pull out and climb off the bed, tucking away my cock and helping her up.
“Let’s go,” I say, and she smiles at me. It’s a smile of love and relief, and I’m so fucking glad I put it there.
When we walk out of the cabin I take her hand and lead her over to Lucias’s bike. I grab my bag off the seat, and then pull her towards the lake.
“What are you doing, Shield?” she asks but I just keep hold of her hand.
We go over to where the small row boats are tied up to a dock, and I help her in. The lake is big, so it takes a while to paddle out to the middle, but when we get there I open my bag and pull out the gun.
She looks at it with wide eyes, and reaches out for it. I hand it to her and she just stares at it, wordlessly.
“I scanned it, and it popped up as an Air Force government-issued weapon out of Georgia. I saw you were stationed there last before you got out, and I knew this was it.”
I had a small worry that I may have gotten the wrong one, but seeing her face, I know this is it.
“I don’t know why I kept it. I think maybe it was a reminder of what people are capable of.” She looks at me with deep hurt in her eyes. “Of what he was capable of and of what I am capable of.” She shakes her head a little and looks back down at the gun. “I made the right decision. I just wish I had made it sooner.”
I reach over and put my hand over hers, still holding the gun.
“You did the right thing, and I would have done the same. You weren’t able to save your mom. But you saved his new wife and that little girl from a lifetime of hell. You can go to the grave knowing that little girl won’t have your scars.”
She nods her head and looks up at me. I let go of the gun, and she tosses it overboard.
I row us back to the dock and we make our way to the cabin. When we reach the bikes again she gives me a puzzled look.
“How in the fuck did you get Pres’s bike? And please don’t tell me you stole it.”
“Nah, just kicked Savage's ass.”
“You did what?” she shouts, and I laugh, pulling her in for a kiss.
