A Demon's Harmony

by E. C. Land

  “Is that why you’re in such a grumpy mood?” Nora asks as she lifts the coffee mug up to her lips. Her eyes are not smiling like they usually do. If I’m honest with myself, Nora hasn’t been the same for a while now.

  I don’t know what all happened to her, but I know she’d been shot a little over a year ago when crazy bitches wanted to cause problems for Emerson’s husband’s club. The only thing I do know is that some crazy bitch went off the deep end and Nora took a bullet when Emerson was kidnapped. Honestly, I don’t want to know the rest.

  I’d probably have nightmares from it if I did.

  “No,” I deny, honestly. I’m annoyed by the fact that in the last month while Tanner’s been healing, I’ve yet to do anything besides some heavy petting and make out sessions.

  Oh, and let me not forget I’ve been getting these calls several times during the day. At first, I thought it was someone who had the wrong number but now I’m not so sure.

  “Then what’s goin’ on,” Emerson demands.

  Sighing I tell them about the calls and how they’ve become more frequent. Several times heavy breathing could be heard through the line.

  “Do you think it could be Lori playing tricks on you?” Nora asks.

  I shake my head in answer. There’s no way she’d do anything like this. Besides, Lori had texted me a couple times apologizing and wanted to put this mess behind us. Granted, I told her we could, I have yet to take her up on our normal lunches.

  “No, Lori isn’t the type of person to do prank phone calls,” I say in defense of the woman who used to be my friend.

  It’s a hard pill to swallow admitting the truth of the fact she used to be. If I’m honest, was she ever really my friend.

  “Alexis, never not think someone can be capable of acting a certain way.” The haunting look in Nora’s gaze sends a pang through my chest.

  “Nora’s right. You never know what anyone is capable of. Shit for all we know our waitress could be a serial killer who goes after a certain type of man,” Emerson states and I can’t help laughing because she’s probably right. Our waitress has that look about her.

  “Leave that poor woman alone,” I say as I straighten in my seat. Glancing at my phone, I check the time. “I have a few more minutes before I have to be back at the shop. I uploaded Bethany’s first song this morning and it should be done by the time I get back. She’s gonna freak the hell out when she finds out.”

  “Bethany has such a beautiful voice, why would she be upset?” Emerson frowns.

  “Because she’s shy as hell about others hearing her sing. Chaz has been working with her on singing more,” I grin. “You guys should hear the arguments between the two of them. It’s hilarious. Chaz will read something from her music notebook, love it and start playing it for her. She’ll get mad and snatch the book, yell at him before taking off for their part of the house.”

  “Oh my God, is it sad I wish I could see that happen? Then again I wouldn’t want to live in the same house as everyone else.” Nora giggles.

  “It’s honestly not bad. I love it. We all have our own space,” I shrug.

  “Okay, so let’s change the subject, when are you going to get mister hunk stripped down and do the dirty?” Emerson asks, wagging her brows up and down like you see in those cheesy movies.

  “Don’t even go there. The day he was hurt he’d wanted to. I had no problem with us doing the dirty. Hell, I wanted it just as badly. If it wasn’t for the fact he’d been hurting, I’d have been seeing stars. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. We’ve yet to do anything but some major kissing and groping.”

  “Well then, may I suggest you get him alone and demand he fuck your brains out. It’s been how long since the two of you fucked last,” Emerson says.

  “Too long,” I mutter, the last time we’d had sex was right before my sister died and that was the first time since the night we married. Shit, I probably have cobwebs built up in there from not having been used in almost six years.

  “Screw going back to the shop. I say go on home, shower, pamper yourself a little, put something sexy on, and be ready for him to rip it off when he walks in the room.” Nora declares and I have to say I love her idea.

  “You’re right. I’m gonna head on out of here and get myself ready,” I say, pulling my wallet out to lay some cash out for my coffee. “I’ll see you all later.”

  “Go get ‘em tiger,” Emerson smiles as I stand from my seat and head for the exit.

  Outside the café, I head for my car. My phone rings and I pull it out of my purse along with my keys. I don’t bother to look at the caller ID as I answer.

  “Hello,” I say into the phone and a shiver goes through me as I’m met by heavy breathing.

  “Look I don’t know who you are, but you can knock it off now,” I snap before disconnecting.

  Unlocking my car, I climb in behind the wheel. Taking in a steady breath, I start the engine and pull out of my parking spot ready to go home.

  It’s time for me to seduce my man completely. He’s healed and I know he’s more than willing to finally fuck me. I can hardly wait either.

  Chapter 10

  Tanner

  “Alright let’s go through this once more before we head home,” Chaz states as we go through rehearsing the song I’d written. This past week was the first time I’d really been able to pick up my bass guitar for a long period of time without becoming sore.

  Nodding my head, I wait for Hunter to cue me in and close my eyes to let the music take over. I wrote this song to show Alexis how I feel about her. Granted I can play an instrument to my heart’s content, but I can’t sing for shit. It’s why I have no problem with Chaz singing it for me. Because at the end my woman will know who the song was meant for when she finally hears it.

  After the last note is strum, I open my eyes.

  “I swear this is gonna be one of the best we’ve done yet,” Chaz declares grabbing his water bottle.

  “Damn right,” Lex chuckles, putting his drumsticks in their holder.

  “Agreed, Alexis is going to flip her shit when she hears this song. I mean anyone who knows the two of you will know this is about y’all,” Hunter says, putting his guitar on its stand.

  Grinning, I pull the strap over my head and put the bass on its own stand before facing everyone. “I sure as fuck hope so. She deserves it.”

  “She does and you better not ever fuck up. Jamie may have died and I’m finally happy with Bethany, but Alexis will always be my sister so don’t fuck up,” Chaz states.

  Chaz had it rougher than any of us, I think. Having lost not only the woman you intended to marry, but the mother of your child has to be the hardest thing anyone should have to bear.

  “Don’t worry man, I won’t be fuckin’ up again. Not ever. She’s my fuckin’ world,” I grin.

  “Good, ‘cause we’d never be able to replace you in the band,” Chaz chuckles.

  “Yeah whatever,” I smirk and pull my phone out of my pocket to see it’s right at 5 p.m. Alexis never came back to the shop after her lunch with her friends.

  Pulling up her name, I shoot her a text, asking if she was okay. A response comes in almost instantly. I open the message and my dick hardens.

  Alexis must have decided she wanted to play dirty today. Over the past month, I’ve been letting her have things her way and not fucked her like I wanted to. Like I know she’s been dying for me to, but she wanted me to heal first. But now after seeing that image of her in the tub covered in bubbles that wait is over.

  Without texting her back, I rush out of the shop calling out to the guys saying I’ll see them later.

  I make it to my car and speed home. Nothing is keeping me from getting between Alexis’ legs tonight. It’s the start of the weekend and I intend to keep her in bed the entire time. Only coming up for air when we need to refuel our bodies to keep going. Even then it’s going to be me leaving the room long enough to grab a pizza that we’ll order from the bed.

&nbs
p; As I pull into the driveway, I park in my spot in front of the detached garage. Each of us have our own spots we park in. It makes things easy for knowing where to park when you have a bunch of people living in the same house.

  Good thing there are no other cars here but Alexis’ and now mine. Everyone else won’t be home until later.

  Shutting the engine off, I open my car door and get out.

  Looking up toward the house, I grin. “Be ready baby. I’m comin’ to finally take what’s been mine for years,” I say to myself as I reach down to adjust my dick behind my jeans before heading inside.

  Once inside, I take the stairs two at a time and all but run down the hall. Soon as I step through the bedroom door, I lock it before glancing around the room finding it empty.

  Alexis must still be in the tub.

  Stripping out of my clothes, I make my way into the bathroom. I open the door and stop to watch the woman who holds my heart.

  Stretched out in the tub, head thrown back with her eyes closed. A moan escapes her lips and I realize she’s lying there pleasuring herself.

  Fuck that. That pussy belongs to me. I’m the only one who should be fuckin’ it. Not her hands.

  On silent feet, I stride the rest the way over to the tub and kneel next to her and slide my hands into the water. A small scream escapes Alexis as her eyes pop open.

  “You doing something without me?” I grin as I move her hand out the way of her pussy and replace it with my own.

  “What are you doing here? I thought you were still at the shop,” she states her breathing becoming uneven when my fingers glide through her slit.

  “We’d just finished up rehearsal when I’d texted you, you naughty girl. Sending me pictures like the one you sent gets you spanked baby,” I murmur sinking two fingers inside her while leaning into her to capture her lips for a kiss.

  Needing to feel more of her, I break the kiss and climb in the tub to hover over my woman.

  “Tanner,” she moans as I pull my fingers from inside her.

  “I don’t want to hold off any more Alexis. I want your hot silky pussy wrapped around my dick now,” I growl, lifting her up as I sit down so that she could straddle me.

  “I want that to, but I’d planned on surprising you,” she argues, weakly.

  “Oh, you surprised me alright with that picture of you soaking in the tub,” I murmur as I lean in to capture her lips in another kiss and thrust up into her pussy.

  Groaning into her mouth, I slowly slide the rest of the way to the hilt.

  My balls are aching for release already. It’s been too damn long since I’ve been inside her and she’s fuckin’ tight as a motherfucker.

  Leaving Alexis’ lips, I kiss my way down her jaw to her shoulder before moving to her breasts. Cupping one, I suck the nipple of the other into my mouth as she rocks herself against my dick.

  Damn, I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of her.

  “Tanner,” she says, breathlessly. Her nails are digging into my shoulders as I nip at her nipple and move to the other, giving it the same treatment.

  I can feel her pussy starting to tighten around my dick ready to come. With a pop, I release her nipple and move my hands to her hips to guide her movements more. I know I’m the only man Alexis has ever been with so I know her skills aren’t as in depth as a woman’s should be at our age but fuck if I don’t love showing her how to fuck me.

  Needing more of her, I grip her ass, holding her tight to me and stand. I climb out of the tub and carry her soaking wet to the bed.

  “Tanner,” she squeals as I lay her on the bed.

  “Don’t worry baby, the sheets will dry before we’re ready for bed. I intend to fuck you until neither of us know our names,” I grin and begin thrusting into her in a steady rhythm.

  As Alexis’ orgasm starts to build more, I pick up speed thrusting faster into her hitting just the right spot. Wanting to feel her come on my dick, I reach between us and give her clit a flick which detonates the trigger that sends my woman over the edge.

  With a scream of my name, Alexis clamps down on my dick as juices squirt from her as she comes.

  “Fuck yeah baby milk my dick as you come. I’m gonna come deep in you,” I growl feeling my own orgasm coming.

  With a handful of thrusts, my balls tighten, and I come shooting my load deep inside Alexis’ pussy as another wave of an orgasm hits her.

  Leaning forward I press my forehead to hers while I try to catch my breath.

  “Damn baby that was fuckin’ epic,” I murmur breathlessly.

  “You're telling me. That was intense. Can we do it again?” she moans.

  “Oh, we’re doing that again right now,” I chuckle and lean back up to begin slowly thrusting into her all over again ignoring the ringtone of her phone blaring from somewhere in the bathroom.

  Whoever the hell that is can wait.

  It’s time for Alexis and I to reclaim the harmony that makes us who we are.

  Chapter 11

  Alexis

  Holy shit.

  How could I not go about having sex with Tanner for so long? More than that why the hell did I drag out the last month when I could have been doing this.

  God knows I’m an idiot for thinking it was a bad idea for being with this man. My man. My husband. Damn I’m stupid.

  From now on, I intend to have Tanner naked as much as possible.

  We’ve spent the entire weekend in each other’s arms and I for one am thankful no one interrupted us. Well besides my phone that kept ringing. I know Tanner heard it too, but we’d ignored it for the most part until he’d suggested we turn both our phones off for the rest of the weekend. Best plan ever in my opinion.

  “Baby, you gonna lay there all day or get up and get ready?” I groan at Tanner’s chipper voice. How he can be so chipper first thing in the morning is beyond me especially after a weekend marathon of sex on every surface of our room, bathroom, and even the damn hallway leading to this room.

  “Ugh, can’t I just stay here and sleep,” I retort, throwing an arm over my eyes.

  “Sorry baby, you know we got shit to do today. Maybe if you can be good, I’ll give you a surprise later,” Tanner says as he removes my arm.

  “For your information mister, I’m always good. It’s your ass who is constantly being a pain in the ass. Now let me get another hour of sleep,” I grumble.

  Chuckling, Tanner leans forward and captures my lips while still holding my arm in his hand. “Alexis get your ass up or I’m taking that sweet ass of yours that I played with all weekend,” he murmurs.

  A shiver runs through me at his little threat. God knows just the mention of it sends sensations of need through my body. He’d done more than play with my rear. As he’d kept saying the entire weekend, he was preparing my rear for him to take. I’d told him there was no way in hell he’d fit there. But he’d chuckled, smirked and said, just wait and see. It’ll fit.

  “Yeah, I see you’re liking the idea of me sinking my dick in your ass.” I narrow my gaze on him at his chuckle.

  “Ass,” I mutter as I go to roll over but he stops me.

  “I may be an ass but I’m your ass baby,” he grins.

  “Whatever, let me go back to sleep.”

  “Not so fast,” he states, keeping me from rolling over on my side.

  “What?” I screech as he starts to tickle me.

  “If you get up now, I’ll stop and get you some coffee,” he offers.

  “Okay, okay. Fine, I’ll get up,” I sigh and finally give in to his demand I get up.

  “Good, now go take a quick shower. You slept through my offer of you getting in there with me,” Tanner says as he helps me up off the bed and pushes me toward the bathroom.

  “Yeah well someone wore me out all weekend. Maybe I need a day to recoup before facing the work week,” I grumble while throwing him a glance over my shoulder.

  “I’ll wear you out all over again baby if you don’t get a move on. I don’t want to g
o to work either, but we have a full day today.” Shit how could I forget. Mondays are always filled to the brim with students coming in for lessons and then they have rehearsal and recordings that they do.

  Hell, I’d even convinced the guys they should do a music video. It’s not like it would be hard for them to do; it’s a matter of simply putting their heads together and coming up with a location, theme for the video, and then filming it. I have several videos of them from their gigs that they don’t know about.

  Closing the bathroom door behind me, I lean against the door for a brief moment to wake up a little more. I’m definitely not a morning person. Who would be after spending an entire weekend having wild monkey sex the way we had? A normal person would call into work today to recoup. But not Tanner. Nope he’s all bright eyed and chipper.

  Sighing, I make my way over to the shower and start the water. I let the water heat up before climbing in. As I lean my head back letting the water rain down on me, I moan as it hits my sore muscles. I don’t think I’ve ever been this sore before. My body feels like it’s been through a 10k marathon.

  Yeah, a 10k marathon of sex galore with a sexy as fuck man who is all yours.

  God my libido just won’t shut up where Tanner is concerned.

  Well duh. Who would? That man is sex on a stick who needs to be ridden six ways to Sunday and back again.

  Shaking my head, I grab my loofah and soap it up in order to wash my body. As I run the soap along my body I moan as I touch the v between my legs.

  Damn I need more of him.

  I close my eyes and let my mind bring an image of Tanner forward as I let memories of this past weekend play in my head. Dropping the loofah, I run my hand down my body to my core until I find my clit. Circling it I think of Tanner’s tongue twirling around the little nub while he stares at me.

  Moaning, I move my fingers further down to my core and sink a finger deep within my pussy. I’m about to come when a hand clamps down on my wrist stopping my progress.
