  Biker in Black: A Motorcycle Club Romance (Damned Angels MC) (Midnight Angels Book 1)

  By April Lust

  She crossed the wrong man.

  It’s my job to neutralize any threats to the club.

  And Erin is determined to slaughter all of us and the man we’re guarding.

  I can either throw her to the wolves and let her suffer…

  Or throw her in my bed and make her moan.

  TORCH

  The fiery stripper thought killing me would solve her problems.

  But I’m not so easy to put in the dirt.

  Far tougher sons of b!tches than her have tried and failed to put a bullet in my head.

  I’ve got the scars to prove I won each of those fights.

  But this is different.

  This is no ordinary bar brawl, not just a bloody scuffle between rival outlaw bikers.

  This is a win-or-die-trying vengeance mission – one girl against the world.

  I have to admit that I admire her ambition.

  She thinks she’s gonna take down a whole motorcycle club and the rich d-bag we’re protecting – singlehandedly.

  No weapons.

  No backup.

  Just her.

  But she failed to get farther than me, and now her fate is in my hands.

  The problem is, Erin’s lone wolf rebellion is making me ask tough questions of myself and my brothers.

  Questions like, are we doing the wrong thing?

  Is this villain worth protecting?

  Or have we sold our souls to the devil?

  If what Erin says is true, then the answers are worse than I ever could have feared.

  I’m no knight in shining armor.

  But even though I’ve always put loyalty to the MC over everything else…

  I’m sure as hell not gonna be the right-hand man of some monstrous prick who hurts women and children.

  I have a choice to make.

  Do I put a bullet in Erin’s skull?

  Do I sell her body at auction to the highest bidder?

  Or do I throw away my brotherhood, my past, and my future to help her do what’s right?

  Chapter 1

  Erin

  The club was pulsing with the heavy beat, and my body moved to the music like it was born to it. The beat was perfect for sex. Heavy, steady, driving, hard.

  The man beneath me was passive for the moment, allowing my body to control the contact between us, but it felt wrong. Torch was holding himself back, restraining himself, and I didn’t like it. I wanted his touch, I wanted his rough hands on me. Fuck, I wanted his mouth on me. I sat on his lap, my clit pressed against his monster hard-on, my wetness soaking my black G-string. I put my hands on my own breasts, kneading and squeezing them together, rolling my nipples, trying to duplicate my memory sense of his rougher touch. It didn’t work. I didn’t have much time left to get what I wanted, so I put my hands on his shoulders, digging in with my fingers, and said, “Touch me. I want your fucking hands. Fuck! Touch me.”

  “Such a mouth, you nasty girl,” he chuckled. “You know hands are off. Don’t want you to lose your job, bossy.”

  “Put. Your. Fucking. Hands. On. Me.”

  “That mouth.” He shook his head. “I should put them on you. And not in the way you mean. But you want it, you do it. Show me what you want.”

  I drifted my hands down his fabulously muscled arms, his bulging deltoids and biceps, and lower down past his elbows and heavily boned wrists to finally grab his rough hands, which were nearly twice the size of my own. I drew them to my chest, pressing them to me, using his hands to squeeze my aching, heavy breasts—god, it felt so good—then guiding them down, scraping my sides to my waist and hips and finally around to my ass, while I continued the dance, my eyes locked on his the whole time. This had recently become our pattern—though I hadn’t ever screwed the rules like this with anybody else—so it didn’t come as any surprise to him. But it was our little secret, and I knew it turned him on, too. The corner of his mouth tilted up.

  The music kept up its beat, and I continued to gyrate on top of him, our faces so close, sharing breath. I reveled in the hard definitions of his body. He was like a hot work of art: all big, tall, powerful male, beautifully muscled, dark mussed hair and tanned skin, strong bones and gorgeous planes in face and body. And those beautiful green-silver eyes.

  He should have been intimidating—and he was—but he also drew me to him like a freaking magnet. It was like my body turned on as soon as he entered the space, and I was powerless to keep myself away.

  That in itself should have been a warning to me. Of course, I was never great with heeding warnings.

  I wanted to see him, to see all of him, to see that six-pack and the V at his hips that I could feel between my thighs. I wanted to taste him, but that crossed a line, and I didn’t dare.

  The heavy beat of the music drove on deep and hard, and he nuzzled my breasts and growled. Then he did taste me. He opened his mouth and let his tongue drift over the skin over my clavicles, dipping down to the tops of my breasts, rolling over and sucking on the soft curves, and then bit the underside of one of them, hard and quick. I gasped, basically dry-humping his cock through his jeans, desperate for more but knowing I wouldn’t get it. His hands were gripping my ass, pulling the cheeks apart, like he wanted to open me and drill in. If only he would.

  He smirked. And then the fucking song ended.

  I panted, working to get myself back under control. I was drenched, so turned on. He was hard as a roc
k, too, but he grabbed my hips and lifted me off him, setting me back on my feet and holding my gaze with his own. The energy between us was insane; I’d never known another man I responded to this powerfully, this uncontrollably.

  And that was dangerous. I needed to get my bearings, to step away from him, from his draw, from his scent, from his hotness. I needed to keep to the plan. It was time to walk away and get back to work. To figure out how I was going to get my revenge, and get out.

  Patience, and having to bide my time, sucked ass.

  Generally speaking, I preferred to be in control. To be in a man’s power was not only dangerous, but stupid. Men fucked everything up. I’d spent my life fixing what men ruined since I was eight years old, taking care of my little sister, Thea, making sure we were okay even when everything around us was shit. Mostly, it worked. We did okay. That is, until Club Centerfold, and Mr. Sleaze-bag Asshole Evil Murdering Bossman “Danny” Fletch.

  Now there was no Thea, and it was up to me to make fucking Mr. Fletch pay for what he did to her. That was all I could afford to focus on, the only thing that mattered. Everything else was of little to no consequence. I went through the daily motions, but my reality had zeroed in to that single focus: make him pay. A life for a life.

  So there was no room for my attraction to Torch, no matter how my body insisted differently. He was just a distraction. A useful distraction on occasion, and an enjoyable one. But still, nothing more than that. Now it was time to get back and keep my focus.

  I turned away from him, checked my G-string, straightened my shoulders, opened the door to the darkened hallway, and walked away with renewed purpose. I parted the curtain at its front and stepped back into the open room of the club. A couple of girls were on the main stage, each on a pole, and another was working her way around the room, just as I had been and would continue to do, stopping at tables to give personal attention to the various clientele that tended to be less than diverse in its variety: mostly just guys in cheap business suits, with balding heads and pot bellies, and a few hard-ass bikers littered around the bar as not-so-secret security.

  “You want a private dance, baby?” I asked the first guy I came close to, sitting alone at a rounded banquette against the wall and nursing a highball. He looked like an average joe, just what I needed after the overheated exchange with Torch. Who passed right behind me as I stood there, passing his palm over both cheeks of my ass, giving one side a good squeeze before moving along. I turned my head to watch his back as he walked on. He didn’t bother looking back at me.

  Unfortunately, I noticed several others were looking at me; they’d seen the exchange, and they were watching us. A couple of the girls looked at me accusingly: my best friend, Britt, with alarm in her eyes; two of the big bad biker dudes; and Mr. Sleazy-Ass Bossman himself, Danny Fletch, who narrowed his eyes with suspicion and pursed his fat lips in distaste.

  Uh oh. I guessed the jig was up. They’d caught on that there was something going on between me and Hot Torch. And nobody seemed to like it.

  Working girls are not supposed to enjoy the work. But seriously? With a man as smokin’ as Torch, how is a woman supposed to pretend not to like it? If only all the clientele were as hot as he was, this would be every woman’s dream job.

  The job really wasn’t that bad most of the time. I got to dance to good music and take the joes to the cleaners for their cash. I didn’t have to whore myself; no happy endings were required by management, and there was a strict hands-off policy for the back rooms. If a guy crossed the line, we only had to hit a button for security to come and enforce the rules.

  Plus, I made great money—way more than I could earn doing some lame-ass gig at minimum wage. That’s why I brought Thea into the club, too—so we could double our intake and get ourselves stockpiled with a solid cushion for opening our dream shop and living the life: two sisters making good and doing well, no man necessary, thank you very much. But that was before Thea got in over her head, before Danny the fucking sister-killer took advantage of her.

  The way I figured it, Torch was my reward for time served. I should consider myself lucky that Danny Fletch let his biker-brute security force partake in the offerings of us dancers once per shift, and they had to pay or no-go; but if they wanted it, they could get it. It was good for business, all around. Torch got me through a shift better than any cocktail slipped my way from one of the bartenders. If not for him, my patience would have worn too thin, and I’d probably be either in jail or dead. I needed to play my cards right so I could get to Danny without his goon bikers hovering all about, ready to kill or be killed to save his sorry ass.

  The irony was that Torch was one of them. Fuck my life, right? That the one man who made my day better was one of the brutes who was protecting the bane of my existence.

  But that didn’t matter so much. What mattered was that I was figuring out my plan, and I was getting close to having enough put away to live that dream—minus my goddamned stupid sister. I missed her like crazy, but she should have known better than to get messed up in Danny Fletch’s porno scheme. She wasn’t known for her great decision-making skills. But even if she weren’t the sharpest tack in the box, she was still my little sis, and she did not deserve what he did to her. And there was no way I was going to let him just get away with it.

  As it was, I still needed more time and more money. So, I needed distraction, and Torch fit the bill perfectly. He was the regular I was always looking for. The one who brightened the shift, when and if he’d show up. And I was pretty sure he knew it. But now it looked like everyone else knew it, too. This was not a good thing. Fuckity fuck.

  “Yo, Erin, come over here.” Shit. Mr. Fletch called to me, his voice grating with nasal resonance.

  He was sitting in a booth in his shiny suit with his hair slicked back, pompadour-style, as if he were the king of some bad ’70s porno palace. Which, I guessed, he kinda was.

  Across the table sat another regular who always got the VIP treatment, so he must have been someone important, but I had no idea really who or what he was. Well, I knew a few things: his name was apparently Michael Owen (though I’d bet good money that was made up), and he insisted on us always calling him “Mr. O.” He got some kind of sick kick out of it, but he was the only one in on the joke. He was tall, slim, attractive in that eastern Mediterranean American way, like Turkish or Greek or something, who knew? He had deep-set brown eyes, a shaved head, closely cropped goatee, and wore glasses for that very cool, intelligent, successful air. He definitely had style, and he radiated power and money. A lot of the girls acted like stupid butterflies around him, and he always seemed to bask in his own glory, accepting their attentions like he was a born prince. I could see their attraction to him, but I never felt it myself. There was something off, a shadiness that always made me uncomfortable. Not to mention the cold sneer he threw around most of the time. My alarm bells rang off the hook every time he came around.

  Accepting the inevitable, I left the average joe with his highball and sashayed my way over to Danny Fletch and Mr. O’s table, wondering what new hell Fletch had in store for me. His face reflected a sick joy in what he was about to do, so I knew to be on my guard.

  “Erin. Don’t get too close to the security. Torch is mine, just like you are. You better remember that.”

  “I don’t know what you’re talkin’ about, Mr. Fletch,” I replied soothingly, trying to adopt an easy manner for show. This man did not like a smart mouth, and he thought all dancers were dumb as bricks. I played it up. “I just gave him a little dance, workin’ just like everyone else. You know I’m good. You got nothin’ to worry about.”

  “Good.” He smirked. “Now why don’t you take Mr. O. here back there to one of the rooms, give him a little taste of your sweet ass. He’s been waiting for you long enough.”

  I glanced over at Mr. O., who was pursing his lips and drinking in my body with his eyes, clearly liking what he saw. His nostrils flared, and he glowered at me. I know I’m
hot; I have a dancer’s body with great curves in all the right places, and I’m not surgically enhanced, thank you very much. About the only thing I could ever thank my parents for. But in this case, I was pretty much wishing I were more wallflower material.

  Mr. O. slid to the edge of the booth and stood right in front of me, sliding his hands around my hips to cup my ass tightly, and jerked my body flush with his own, making sure I could feel his hard-on pushing against my belly. He was taller than me by several inches, but my four-inch stilettos brought me closer to even than not. Then he confidently twisted me at the waist in a practiced dance move, and with his arms wrapped around me, shoving his dick into my lower back, he palmed and squeezed one breast and grabbed my pussy with the other. None too gently. He leaned down to growl in my ear, “I’m looking forward to taking your ass, make no mistake about that. Let’s go.”

  Before I could even process that statement or make a move, I felt a strong tug on my arm, pulling me out of Mr. O.’s grip, and I cycled sideward in my stilettos, trying to keep to my feet. As soon as I stabilized, I processed the craziest sight: Torch, personal security to the Boss, slug-festing it all over the Boss’s rich and scary VIP. And the music kept pounding.
