She felt the cream drip between her legs. “Yes, oh God, yes, Angus.”
“Get ready, baby,” Keller said and then she felt the thick cock at her pussy from behind and then Keller nudged slowly into her cunt. They both moaned and sighed.
“Yes,” she said. He massaged her ass and thrust into her over and over again. Angus and Bronc rubbed her back and her shoulders, then slid their palms up her arms to her hands and entwined them with theirs as Keller stroked deeper and faster into her. She couldn’t believe how much she loved being restrained by them.
“You got things started?” Johnny asked, joining them and stripping immediately.
“Fuck yeah. Check it out,” Bronc said.
Johnny walked closer and ran his palm along her ass. “Could be pinker. She really pissed us off and scared us tonight,” he said.
“Oh. Please, Johnny,” she moaned.
“Fuck,” Keller said and came in her cunt.
He pulled out and Angus took her there next. But as he thrust into her someone slid lubed fingers into her asshole. She moaned and thrust back.
“She wants to. So fucking hot and sexy. Ready to please us,” Angus said and thrust faster.
“I think she can handle all of us,” Johnny said and ran his hand up under her hair to the base of her head. He gave a little obsessive squeeze and then kissed her cheek and her neck. It caused tiny vibrations to run all over her body. She shivered.
“Please, do it. I can handle it,” she said.
“Let’s do this,” Bronc said and Angus pulled out of her. Bronc got onto the bed and Angus placed her on top of him. She felt the pain but she wasn’t saying a word. She needed her men inside of her more.
In a flash she was riding Bronc as Angus thrust into her asshole. Johnny got onto the bed and moved his cock toward her mouth. He caressed her hair as he slowly thrust into her mouth. She felt that deep connection, the emotions no words could describe as they made love to her together. Every thrust, every stroke, every orgasm a symbol of their love and a strengthening of this bond.
“There,” Angus said and came in her asshole.
“Release me, baby. I’m taking that ass and spanking it like I promised.”
She released Johnny’s cock and he took Angus’s place. There was no hesitation as he thrust into her asshole and spanked her ass while Bronc grunted and came as he thrust up into her. Johnny was relentless in his strokes and spanks but she loved it. She came so hard, so much she was shocked.
“There, baby. There,” Johnny said and came in her ass. She sighed and smiled wide as Keller cleaned her up, got into bed with her and held her tight.
“We’re serious, baby, this situation isn’t over yet. We’ll be by your side, and hopefully very soon, everyone involved will get caught and go to jail,” Johnny told her and he kissed her ass cheek then headed to the bathroom.
Chapter 10
Two weeks had passed and Ivy had performed on stage at Black Jack twice, and with her men and her brothers, plus her friends supporting her. She agreed to two nights a week, Wednesday and Thursday, so she gave up Thursday nights at Harper’s. Candice was back though, so it worked out perfectly.
Tonight was a special night because everyone was there. Jake and Crespy were found and arrested. Jeff was, too, along with information to arrest the major dealers and buyers in the area. All the other local bars took great efforts in adding more security cameras and keeping eyes on any suspicious behavior. It would be tough to stop the drug dealing entirely, but at least the dealers would think twice about selling in a place like Black Jack.
As she took the stage she saw her family. She gave a wave and the crowd was already cheering for her. She wore a short red flare skirt, her cowgirl boots and a low cut top that her men weren’t too keen on but loved on her. She was safe with them, and safe from getting hit on.
The band began to play and she started to sing. She felt so happy, like life was finally perfect. She had her men to love, and who loved her, all her brothers home safe and sound, and Rome said he gave in his papers to retire. He would be working at the MMA gym with all of them. She smiled as she sang, hitting the high notes beautifully. As she finished the song the crowd cheered and she went into another song. She felt so alive, so high on life and so much in love with her men she wanted to savor this moment, this time in her life forever.
As she heard the loud noise, her body lifted off the floor and she fell back onto the stage. People were screaming. More gunshots were fired and the pain hit her hard. She reached up as the band members starting yelling that she was hit. That she got shot. It was chaos around her, her men up on stage and people still screaming. The lights came on fully.
“Oh God, baby. Baby,” Johnny said and was applying pressure to her chest. She could feel herself getting colder and colder. “Johnny.” She was choking on something.
“No. No!” Angus yelled.
They were saying something to her but she closed her eyes. “Don’t you give up. Don’t you die on us, Ivy!” Bronc was yelling and then she felt herself go in and out of consciousness. She felt like her body lifted. “Keller,” she called out. Or at least she thought she did.
“Angus.” She heard people asking her questions. “Bronc.” She saw bright lights then what looked like maybe doctors and she coughed again as she tried speaking. Then darkness overtook her vision and she felt nothing at all.
“How the fuck could this happen? How?” Angus yelled as they all paced the emergency room. The place was swarming with their friends and police. Everyone was coming in.
“What did the doctor say? Does Johnny know anything?” Kenny asked them.
“Johnny is in there. He refused to leave her side. He’ll do everything he can for her,” Sheriff Kane McCabe told them.
They were all still in shock. Other people could have gotten killed but then Rome and Bronc jumped over the tables to tackle Madison and get the gun from her hands. She was firing it until Bronc slammed on her hands and then punched her. They restrained her until cops arrived. They could lose Ivy. She could die.
Johnny rubbed his jaw as he stared at Ivy. She wasn’t in the clear. They nearly lost her three times on the operating table. She needed a lot of blood and her brothers were matches and they were giving blood as the doctors operated. She could die, and he just couldn’t imagine his life without her. His brothers, her brothers and friends were all worried so he needed to go out to talk to them with the head surgeon.
“She’s a tough one, Johnny. Her will to live is strong. A half an inch closer and—”
“I know, Bradley. I know. You did awesome.”
“She’s going to have a long recovery ahead of her, but so far things look promising.”
“She isn’t in the clear. The next forty-eight hours or so will be crucial,” Johnny said.
“Exactly, but she has the best care here in the ICU. Round the clock, and you and your brothers will be nearby. Let’s go tell your family and hers where we’re at,” Bradley said and placed his hand on Johnny’s shoulder and gave it a squeeze. They walked out of the room and headed to the waiting room.
He hadn’t expected so many people to be there. Sure, he knew he would see her friends, his brothers, hers, but the townspeople, the officers, their friends who were deputies and others were all there. That was Cherry Hill.
“Johnny?” Bronc said his name and he nodded toward Bradley.
“I’m Dr. Bradley Scott. Ivy isn’t in the clear quite yet, but surgery went well. The next forty-eight hours are crucial to her surviving this. The gunshot missed a major artery in her heart by a half an inch. Somehow, we got the bleeding under control. Thanks to her brothers for supplying more blood. She’ll be in the ICU for a while. She’ll have round the clock care, and we will do our best to nurse her back to great health,” he said and they thanked him and then asked about seeing her. “Johnny, maybe one or two at a time.”
Keller and his brothers glared at the doctor.
“Or not,” the doctor sai
d and gave a wink and smile to Johnny.
“Thank you,” he said. He then hugged his brothers and told them how they nearly lost her three times on the operating table.
“Oh God. Holy fuck,” Bronc said.
“You guys go in first,” Kenny said to them.
“Okay, we won’t be long. They don’t let you stay more than a few minutes at a time,” Johnny said and then he walked his brothers to the ICU.
Keller was breathing through his nostrils. He couldn’t believe how bad she looked. How white and tiny in that bed and all those wires and tubes. It was too much. His heart actually ached with fear for her and sadness. “We can’t lose her,” he said.
“You keep fighting, baby. We’re right here,” Bronc told her and kissed her forehead. Angus kissed her next, then Keller, then Johnny. They stayed a few minutes and then headed back to the waiting room so her brothers could see her next.
“Too bad Madison didn’t die,” he said and they mumbled in agreement.
“The case was solved, a lot of dealers and distributors were arrested. It was the bust,” Angus said to him.
“But we could lose Ivy forever. Forever,” Keller said and walked away, down the hallway and out the door.
Epilogue
Ivy felt so weak, but she was determined to get out of this hospital and go home. It was a beautiful summer day outside, and the sun was shining through the windows in the hospital room. A room adorned with flowers, balloons, and get well wishes. She took a deep breath and felt that ache. Dr. Scott said it would take time, but she was healing well and would be back up on stage in no time at all.
She didn’t know if she wanted to do that though. Right now the fear of what happened to her up there fed her nightmares. Of course the pain killers didn’t help in that area either, and numerous times she awoke in a cold sweat after dreaming about her men being murdered because of her.
She thought back to that night so many times. She tried not to let on to her men that those thoughts haunted her. Instead she focused on that feeling of happiness, contentedness before that gun was fired. She never felt so beautiful, so loved, so successful and happy in all her life. Her men, Johnny, Keller, Angus, and Bronc, were her world, and the center of her universe. Thinking of them, knowing they were hers and she was theirs, brought more happiness to her heart than singing had ever done. The sound of music to her was what love sounded like, and felt like. In music and in her love for her men she was able to identify the depth of deep happiness, contentedness, and feeling whole as well as connected beyond anything else in the whole world.
She eased her legs off of the side of the hospital bed. She stepped into the slippers and took a few unsteady breaths. With them by her side anything seemed possible. Even getting back up on stage and singing some day.
“What do you think you’re doing?” Johnny asked, coming into the room.
She stood up. He placed his hands on her hips and scrunched his eyes at her. She placed her palms against his chest. “I want to go home, Doc. I want to be with my men, loving all of you, and getting lost in your embraces. Can ya hook a girl up?” she asked and winked.
That serious expression softened. “Hook a girl up, huh?” he asked and slid his palm along her ass and squeezed. She hugged him tight and he held her against his chest.
“As soon as all the tests come back clear and Doctor Scott gives the okay, then I will, too,” he said and kissed the top of her head.
The door opened and Keller, Angus, and Bronc walked in. “What are you doing out of bed?” Keller demanded to know.
She turned to look at them, smiled and laid her cheek against Johnny’s chest. “Dancing with my man. Come join us,” she said and reached her hand out for them to take. Keller stepped closer, took her hand and pressed his lips to her knuckles. Angus moved in behind her and kissed her neck and Bronc placed his hand on her hip on the other side of her. They were all touching her and she began to rock. “I love you guys so much. I know I’ve been quiet, and I haven’t exactly been myself, but I will be soon enough. With the four of you by my side, loving me, I know I can do anything I set my heart on doing. One day, I’ll get back up on that stage.”
“Ivy,” Keller interrupted her.
She looked at him and touched her palm to his cheek. “One day I will, and it will be okay. It will be hard, but you see I want that happiness again. That love, that connection, the sensation of being perfect because everything was right. Our love, our connection, our agreement to commit to one another, achieving my dream of singing that makes me so happy, and still having my job with my family and friends. In that moment when I was up there on stage, I had it all for only a moment. That was taken away from me, and I want it back. You’ll help me get that back. All of you will, because you love me, and I love each of you.”
Keller stepped closer, cupped her cheek and held her gaze. “Damn straight we love you, and you will have that moment back, and as far as happiness and love, you’ve got that for the rest of our lives, baby. Forever.” Keller pressed his lips to hers, and when he released her lips she kissed Angus then Bronc, then Johnny, before she held them close and danced a little right there in the hospital room.
“Don’t let anyone know, but Doc is going to spring me outta here,” she whispered.
Johnny squeezed her ass. “Someone is racking up the points for a very pink ass,” he said and she chuckled as she closed her eyes, smiled and absorbed the moment. She could have lost all of this. Now every moment, every day was a blessing.
