Axel turns his head to see the guys at the door. “Get out,” he said. They nod their heads and retreat quickly. Closing the door quietly behind them.
I shove my face back into his chest while he caresses my hair. All the while whispering “It's okay babe go to sleep. I’ve got you. No one is going to hurt you. I won’t let them.” closing my eyes, I cuddle even closer to him.
“Please don’t leave me” I beg “I’ll be right here when you wake up. Promise,” he reply’s and with that I drift off into a dreamless sleep.
Chapter 31
Axel
My men have been searching for anything we can get on this Trevor. But I need his last name. Walking into my room, I watch Tessa burrow her face in my pillows with a smile on her face.
Slowly making my way over to her. My intentions were to ask her his last name. But it got heated up quickly before I knew it, I had her pinned under me. If I didn’t stop now, I wouldn’t be able to.
With regret, I lean my forehead against hers. I want her to know she’s mine. “Babe....” knocking. Someone is knocking on my door. Shit. Giving her a peck on the lips I roll away from her and head for the door.
Whoever decided to interrupt us better have a good fucking reason or I won’t be responsible for the nap he will be taking courtesy of my fist to his face.
Stepping out the door I turn to face Jesse. Who has a huge smile on his face. He’s fucking lucky Tessa likes him so much. I might have had to wipe that smile off his face.
“What.” I all but growl.
“You got a call boss.” Is all he says before walking away.
Storming into my office, I reach the phone. “What” I force out trying to sound like I’m not ready to shoot someone. When that’s all I want to do in this moment.
“We’ve got a problem boss, Its Drake we found his body behind the gym.” Jace barks out.
“FUCK! I'm on my way, keep the lid on this shit. No one, and I mean no one gets near this, got me.” I demand with barely leashed anger.
“Yes boss.” Jace reply sounding just as pissed.
Slamming my phone down I storm to my bike and tear out of there.
Getting to the gym felt almost like I teleported there. Heading right to the back and coming face to face with Jace. “Where is he.” I say curtly.
My fuse is running short right now. Without replying he walks over to the dumpster and I follow. There propped against the side is Drake head, lolled to the side. A hole in the back of his head.
Crouching down I take it all in. The bruised knuckles, split lip, the scratches, broken nose and the bruises marring his face and arms.
“That’s not all.” Jace said. Drawing my attention to him. He lift’s Drake’s shirt. Exposing his chest. A chest covered in bruises.
My fist clench and unclench as I look at Drake. “Call everyone I want them here now!” I shout.
“Yes boss. What of the men guarding Tessa?”
“Leave them. We'll brief them later.” He nods curtly stepping away to make the call.
Pulling out my phone I call Brandon. “Get to the gym now. Bring the cleanup kit...” I pause “The one reserved for members.” Hitting the end button. First things first. Getting my fallen brother taken care of. He doesn’t belong out here in the garbage.
Chapter 32
Axel
Looking around the table I take in everyone’s grim faces. Drake was a brother and now he’s gone. “Drake was on watch last night at the garage...” I start, “It looks like Kevin and the Aces made a move on our shipment last night and killed Drake in the progress.”
Muttering started “What the fuck are we waiting for let’s go kill the piece of shit.” John yelled. Turning my head, I look into John’s eyes, giving him the full weight of my stare before saying. “Are you fucking stupid? We don’t just go in all guns blazing. We need to think this shit through. Retaliation needs to be smart.” Taking my eyes off him. I stare down all my men. Making eye contact with every single one.
The few seasoned veterans. The ones who are left. The ones that didn’t die in the massacre. Agree and know where this is going. The newbies not so much.
“So, we just sit here while those dicks sell our guns and party over Drakes death. We do nothing?” John spits out.
At this point my blood is boiling. That stupid fuck has been out of my good graces since the party with Tessa. Now he has the balls to sit here and undermine me.
Pulling my gun, I stand up and walk over to him. Not taking my eyes from his I put the barrel to his head. His eyes widen in fear.
“Listen, hear pup. You’ve been a hair across my ass for a while now. I run this club. If I say we wait. That we plan the attack. Then we wait and plan the attack. If I say pull your gun and shoot the fucker across from you. You pull your fucking gun and shoot the fucker across from you. Do you understand?” I demanded.
This piece of shit just nods his head. I have half a mind to shoot him and be done with it. I have too much shit that needs handled right now and he may be handy later.
“Does anyone else have a problem?” I ask. I’m greeted with silence. Perfect. I walk back over to my seat. “Back to business. I know no one wants to sit here while the scum sells our guns and defiantly not after they killed Drake. We need to. This shit needs to be handled properly. To get the mass effect we want for our brother Drake we’re going to sit back. We’ll watch them.”
“We make no move on them. You hear me. When they get nice and comfy. We’ll have the advantage. We will know their ins and outs. Who’s who. Those they love. Their jobs. When they take a fucking shit. We will know. Then we strike. We hit them where it hurts. We slowly take them apart.” I all but growl the last part.
Shouts of agreement went up around the table, “It’s time we go put our brother to rest.” I shout out.
Chapter 33
Tessa
It’s been hours since Axel left. Without even a good bye. And I have spent those hours pacing the floor. Heaving a sigh. I climb back on his bed and close my eyes. I wonder what’s keeping him? Why didn’t he say goodbye? Maybe he’s with the slut Amb... I don’t even get to finish the thought. I hear the door creak open and then a high pitch scream.
“What the fuck are you doing in here?” Amber screeches at me. Grabbing my ears, I give a slight moan of pain.
“For fuck sakes. Put a cork in it. Are you trying to make my ears bleed?” I admonish in the most motherly tone I can muster.
All the while I have a smirk on my face as I run my hand over the sheets. “Get out you, you...” Amber starts, but the doors burst open and Jesse comes sauntering in.
“What are you doing in here Amber?” Jesse demands.
“What am I doing in here? You mean what is she doing in here! This is my boyfriend's room,” she screeches, some more.
“No, this is Axels room, and as of this morning, it’s also the Tessa's room.” Jesse replies with a smile.
He is so enjoying this. “No, you’re lying, she...” she points a claw at me “Needs to get out of this room right this instant.” she continued with a stomp of her foot.
I can't help but watch with fascination as Jesse grips the bridge of his nose. “So, you’re calling me a liar? And you’re going against Axel’s orders? Would you like me to call him now?” Jesse demand pulling out his phone.
I watched the emotions play across Amber’s face. I thought for a moment Amber was going to be smart and say no and leave. But then she proves just how stupid she was. I realized there was a brain cell left in that brain of hers maybe.
“Call him. I want to hear him tell you to kick her out.” Amber smirks and shifts her eyes to me and I feel my smile get bigger. Jesse puts the phone to his ear.
“Boss, we got a problem here...” pause “No Tessa is fine. We’ll I mean she’s safe, but, well, Amber’s here...” pause “In your, I mean yours, and Tessa's room.” pause “Yes, boss, I told her, but she continues to demand Tessa's removal from the room...” pause “Yes boss.
” he pulls the phone away from his ear and press's the speaker phone button.
Axel’s voice fills the room “Tessa babe you alright?” he asks softly. “Hmm, I'm okay, my ears hurt and I’m starting to get a headache. But otherwise okay. I was getting ready to go to bed when she came in.”
“Okay, babe you rest I’ll be home soon...” His voice still soft. If not more so than normal. His voice goes cold and hard when he talks to her. “Amber?” “Yes, babe, I’m here. I came home to find this whore in our bed and she won’t leave.”
I interrupt by jumping from the bed with a loud “GROSS you fucked that walking STD on this bed and you put me in it. Oh God.” I feel myself go green what the fuck was he thinking.
“Tessa.” I hear Jesse's voice, “You okay? You’re looking a little green.”
“Tessa, babe, you okay?” I hear the worry in Axel's voice.
“Okay are you fucking kidding me. You wanted me to stay in a room. On a bed where countless others have been. Including this.” I reply pointing at Amber “I think I’m going to be sick.” I force out.
“Tessa, babe, there has never, and I mean never been another in that room or that bed I..” he paused “I took them in another room. I never brought a woman to my room you’re the first I swear babe.” he pleads.
I believe him. Sitting down on our bed I say, “I believe you.” Closing my eyes to take away the stinging I feel. I will not cry. I just won’t do it.
“Amber why the fuck are you in our room? And after Jesse told you it was mine and Tessa's room?” I can hear the murder in his voice.
“Axel...” Amber starts “GET THE FUCK OUT.” he shouts at her. I watch in fascination as Amber trips over her feet in her rush to get out of the room. “I want her barred from the house, Jesse.” Axel says curtly.
“Yes boss.”
“Tessa?”
“Yes?”
“Get some rest, babe. I’ll be home soon, okay?” Axel says gently.
“Okay.” I say on a yawn.
Jesse turns off the speaker setting and puts the phone to his ear. “Yes, boss.” he says and hangs up. Turning to me with a smile on his face.
“That was so much fun!” he claps his hands like a kid. “Get some rest, Tessa. I got to go make sure she’s left the building. Then inform everyone she’s not allowed back in. Boss's orders. You need anything, just let me know, okay?” I just nod my head as my eyelids get heavy and sleep takes me with a smile on my face.
I'm back in front of the mirror, smiling at my reflection. My hands placed over my belly “It will be okay.” I whisper to myself.
I feel like this is important, like it’s real. “Hey Tessa?” I hear Ella shout from somewhere behind me. “Hmm?” I respond “Let's go. You need to tell Axel.” she says excitedly. I nod my head and turn to head for the door. Then I’m at his house and Amber's cars there...
I feel the bed dip behind me and strong arms pull me up to a warm hard chest. Spooning in behind me. Axel's home. I smile as he kiss's my head and snuggles his face into the back of my neck. Sighing, I let sleep take me into nothing but darkness. No more dreams.
Chapter 34
Axel
Shoving my phone back into my pocket. When I really want to throw it at the fucking wall. Watch it shatter. What the fuck am I going to do about Amber? The bitch just won’t stop.
I told her that she’s just a fuck, nothing more. Tessa shit. The fucking thing with Amber. The stupid whore almost fucked everything up. Everything, I had going with her. I'm so glad I always wrap my shit.
“Trouble in paradise boss.” Jace asks. The stupid shit is enjoying this. “Fucking Amber.” I growl. “Ah, I see. Well, I heard.” he says. While laughing his ass off at my expense, no less.
“Let’s finish this I need to head home.” Is all I say in response. Jace just nods his head. Smart man. I’m holding on by a thread at this point.
It took almost an hour. But finally, I'm home. Stepping into my room I make my way over to the bed. Feeling a smile pull at my lips at the sight that greets me. Tessa with her back to me. Her face facing the window. Her back to the door the covers at her waist. There was a smile lighting up her whole face.
Stripping out of my clothes. I climb into the bed. Pulling her into my arms and I kiss the top of her head before I nuzzle my face into the nape of her neck and let sleep take me.
The sunlight hit my face and I groan shifting slightly. Cracking open my eyes to see Tessa's sweet face tilted up to mine. Her eyes were still closed. Her beautiful long legs are tangled in mine. Unable to help myself, I press my lips to her soft pretty ones.
Pulling back, I hear her sigh as her eyes fluttered open. A sweet smile lights her face. Once again, I’m unable to stop myself and lean back in for another kiss. That peck turned to another. Then another. Next thing I know I’m on top of her. Her legs on either side of my body. My cock pressed against her pantie covered pussy.
I wrap my hand up in her hair, deepening the kiss. Letting my other hand slowly roam her body. I rub it up and down her side. My fingers brush the underside of her luscious breast.
The moans that follow that simple touch, was so fucking erotic I almost unmanned myself by shooting my load off in my boxers.
“Oh god.” Tessa whispers. “Tessa get up.” Ella shouts from the other side of the door. Following it up with a swift pounding knock. Groaning, I reluctantly roll off of her and head to the bathroom. I’ve got a little or you know big problem I need to take care of.
Stepping under the hot spray I wrap my hand around my cock and give a light squeeze before stroking it up and down. I close my eyes and take myself back to a few moments before. Before we were interrupted. I pick up where I left off slowly lifting her shirt as I kiss her more passionately.
I pause long enough to pull her shirt over her head. Slanting my lips back onto hers and sliding my tongue into her mouth, I gently caress hers with mine. My hands go back into their original position one knotted in her hair. Tilting her head back for better access to her mouth.
The other went to her breast my fingers sliding over her nipple gently... I squeeze my cock a little harder... I pinch her nipple. Before my mouth leaves hers too, trail down her neck, leaving a trail or kiss's nips and licks.
I pull her nipple into my mouth. Giving it a gentle tug. I suckle on it. A loud, sweet moan met my ears. My control snapped a little. Sliding one of my hands down her stomach. I push it into her panties and slowly trail my fingers through her wet slit.
My cock jumps a little in my hand as I pump it a little harder. Moaning... She’s so wet for me. My fingers go deeper. I circle her tight hole with my fingertip, then I slowly insert one finger into her moist heat.
Tessa moans grow louder... And so, do mine. I'm close. So, fucking close, I pump my cock a little harder and a little pre-cum wells up on top of the tip...
Pumping in my finger. I insert another finger into her tight moist pussy. So, fucking tight. I pump a little harder. A little faster as I feel her body start to stiffen up and she starts to scream in pleasure.
I watch the look of pure pleasure that comes over her face as her orgasm rushes through her... Groaning, I stiffen as my cum shoots out of my cock. Jets after jets of hot cum forcefully leave my cock and hit my hand. I gave one final tug on my cock as it finally emptied I slumped forward.
Taking a deep breath, I wash myself quickly. I dry off before heading out into my room. Pulling on a pair of washed out loose fit blue jeans. My phone rings.
“Boss we have sightings of Trevor. En route to confirm. What do you want us to do” Jace asks “Confirm? Then text me the location. I’ll be headed your way in a few.” I barked back in reply.
Slamming my phone down. I quickly put the rest of my clothes on. As I’m sliding my shoes onto my feet the bedroom door opens. I knew without looking up it was Tessa.
Everyone else knew better. You knock first. But she didn’t and I didn’t want her to. It was our room “Everything okay?” she asks in her sweet voi
ce. I could see the worry in her eyes. “Fine, babe. Just need to go meet up with Jace nothing big.” Trying to keep as much of the truth as possible without saying too much.
“Oh, okay, I’ll see you later?” she asks. The worry being replaced with disappointment. “I’ll be back as quick as I can,” I say to her gently.
Making my way over to her I kiss her gently. Then I’m heading to the door. I need to end this shit and I needed to do it now.
So much has changed between us. After she told me everything. It was like I was struck by lightning. Everything I’ve learned about this girl. Makes me want her more. Everything screamed mine. I wasn’t going to fight it anymore. She’s mine.
The lead panned out. At the same time, didn’t. We didn’t find Trevor. We did, however, come across one of Kevin’s men. “Take him to the gym. I’ll be in later. Keep him under wraps until I get there understand.” I demand in a hard-firm tone.
I’m going to have a little fun getting him to talk. We found him where Trevor was rumored to be. I didn’t believe in coincidence. First and foremost, I needed to head home and see Tessa. I told her I wouldn’t be long, so he will have to wait.
Chapter 35
Tessa
School. I hate fucking school. At least, Ella’s here with me. Axel couldn’t be. At least I wasn’t lonely and bored out of my fucking mind. Ah, lunch time Thank fucking god. I spent my morning recalling what happened this morning before I left for school.
I open my eyes as Axel's fingers caress my stomach gently sending tingles and shivers through my body. “Good morning, babe.” he whispers in my ear, causing more of those tingles to run through my body.
“Good morning.” I breathe out, almost breathless. The effect his fingers have just rubbing my belly with gentle caress has me almost breathless. His mouth starts kissing my neck gently. Sucking here and there.
“As much as I would love to strip your beautiful body and continue this we need to get ready, babe. I have some shit to take care of today and you, my little kitten, need to go to school.” he finishes with his teeth gently grabbing my earlobe and tugging.
