“You like it when they struggle?” she asked, her voice dripping venom. “I’ll play with you. Not that there’s much to play with,” she said as she looked at his cock.
He growled and released me as he launched himself at the woman. I didn’t know who she was, but she seemed to be able to take care of herself. I scanned the area, wondering where she’d come from, when I saw a bunch of bikers storming toward me. When I saw Wraith, I started crying and ran for him.
“Rin!” he yelled as he came closer, then his arms were going around me and I let the sobs loose that I’d been holding back. “Baby, I’m here. Are you all right? Where are you hurt?”
“I -- I’m fine. The blood is from the car accident. I’m a little sore, but I think I’m all right. They tried to hurt me, but I didn’t let them.”
He cursed and shrugged off his cut, then pulled his shirt over his head. He put his tee on me, pausing before he covered my breasts, and I heard him curse. I looked down and saw bruises in the shape of fingers forming on the breast the guard had squeezed. Wraith pulled his cut back on over his bare torso, then tipped my chin up.
“Who touched you?” he demanded.
“The guard in the conference room. Then…” I looked over where the woman was fighting the man who’d tackled me to the floor. My eyes went wide when I saw her pull a deadly-looking blade and stab the man right between the legs.
“Seems Montoya has that one taken care,” Ryker said from behind Wraith. “Give me Rin and go after the guard. I know you need to handle it.”
Wraith pressed a kiss to my lips, then passed me to Ryker. “Go with him, baby. He’ll keep you safe while I take care of things here.”
“No, Wraith… Come with us,” I said.
“Not yet, sweet girl,” Wraith said, his jaw firm and his gaze determined.
“I’ll come with you,” Rocket said, materializing next to Ryker.
“Please, baby,” Wraith said. “I need to take care of this. I need to know for certain they aren’t coming for you again, and while I trust my brothers and everyone who came to help, I need to handle it myself. I’m sorry, Rin. I told you I wasn’t a nice man and you deserve better.”
I blinked back tears and reached up to place my hand on Wraith’s cheek. “You’re an honorable man, Wraith. And I love you.”
I saw him swallow, his Adam’s apple bobbing, then he kissed me hard and ran toward the conference room.
The man Montoya had cornered was screaming as she ripped his stomach open and… I turned and retched on the floor.
“Okay, enough excitement for you,” Rocket said as he and Ryker led me away.
“I’ll make sure some of the others come inside to help clean house,” someone said, but I didn’t recognize them.
It was freezing outside and my bare feet hurt from being on the icy ground. Rocket sensed my dilemma and lifted me into his arms, carrying me to a truck that was parked at the curb.
“When did those get here?” Ryker asked.
“I figured we’d be going out the front, so once I cut through that grate, I sent a text to the Prospect waiting with the trucks to bring one here. I didn’t think Rin would be going home on the back of a bike,” Rocket said.
“Good thinking,” Ryker said.
“I have my moments,” Rocket said.
Rocket eased me down onto the backseat of the truck, and the heat blasting from the vents felt really, really good. I held my hands out toward them and inched closer. I worried about Wraith as I looked over at the building. I knew he could handle himself, especially with all the backup he seemed to have, but I didn’t want this to come back and bite him in the ass. If he went to jail because he defended me, I didn’t know what I’d do. Having a baby was scary enough, but having the man I loved locked up in prison? I wasn’t sure I could handle that.
“He’ll be fine,” Rocket assured me.
It felt like we waited forever, but at the same time it almost seemed like time had stood still, and when Wraith came out of the building, he was covered in blood and bits that I didn’t want to try to identify. He paused outside the truck and placed a bloodstained hand on the window. I rolled it down, shivering as the cold air blew into the truck.
“I’m going to head back to my bike, then get cleaned up at home. Someone will stay with you until then, all right?” he asked, watching me closely.
“Okay.” I wanted to ask what he’d done inside, but I wasn’t sure I wanted to know. A piece of what looked like brains was stuck to his shoulder, and I refused to even look at the rest of the gore clinging to him.
“Rin, look at me. My eyes, not my body,” he said.
My gaze locked with his.
“You’re safe, baby. Joe Banner, and everyone else in that building, have been taken care of. No one is ever coming after you again. Got it?”
I nodded.
He turned to Rocket. “Get her home safely. I’ll get someone to drop some clean clothes by the clubhouse for me and I’ll clean up there.”
“You got it,” Rocket said.
Rocket and Ryker both rode back to the compound with me, a Prospect I’d never met behind the wheel, and when we cleared the gates, I breathed a little easier. It was amazing that a place I’d hardly seen could feel like home. But that’s how I felt as we entered the gates and the Prospect driving pointed the truck toward Wraith’s house.
Someone had left a change of clothes on the coffee table for me, and I picked them up and went straight to Wraith’s bathroom. At first the hot water felt good, and loosened up any tight muscles I had from the accident, but eventually it started to cool. The dried blood cracked and slid down my body in chunks, swirling down the drain. Head wounds always bled a lot. What was left made the water turn pink as it slowly liquefied. I scrubbed at my skin, wanting to wash away the touch of those men, not stopping until I’d rubbed myself raw. The water was turning so cold my teeth were starting to chatter. The shower door was jerked open, and I screamed until I realized who was with me.
“Easy, baby,” Wraith said. “It’s just me.”
He pulled me from the shower, turned off the water, then helped me dry off. He held up the clothes and I shook my head, reaching for him. I tugged at his cut, until he removed it, then I tried to pull his shirt over his head. The cut was spotless, and I wondered if he’d removed it when he’d dealt with the men at town hall.
“Sweet girl, what are you doing? You should see a doctor and rest. You still have a cut on your forehead and who knows what other injuries you might have. You might need stitches.”
“I need you, Will. Please. I need…” I didn’t know how to put it into words. I didn’t care about the cut on my head, or anything else right then. What I needed was to feel like I was his again, to replace the horrible events of the day with something good.
Understanding filled his gaze and he nodded, then stripped out of his clothes. Wraith picked me up and carried me into the bedroom. I noticed the door was already shut, but after he laid me down on the bed, he went and locked the knob.
His touch was light as he caressed the bruises on my body. “I’m sorry I didn’t protect you better.”
“It’s not your fault, Will. None of this was your fault. My half-brother was an evil bastard, just like those men today. You’re not responsible for other peoples’ actions. Only your own.”
“I slaughtered them,” he admitted. “Made them scream and beg for mercy. I didn’t end their lives quickly.”
“You weren’t in there very long,” I said.
His gaze narrowed. “Rin, you were waiting in the truck for almost an hour.”
I blinked up at him. “But it felt like minutes.”
“Maybe you’re in shock,” he murmured and he started to back away.
“No!” I yelled, reaching for him and latching onto his biceps. “Don’t leave me.”
“I’m not leaving,” he said softly. “Tell me what you need, Rin. I’ll give you anything you want. Whatever will make you feel better.”
/> “Touch me,” I said softly. “Touch me and make me forget.”
He used light, sweeping strokes to caress me from my neck to my knees, his lips leaving a trail of kisses along my body. He licked at my nipples and took his time, making me feel cherished and important. In that room, tied to that chair with the men leering at me, I’d felt like trash. Here with Wraith, I wasn’t a common whore, a body to be used. I was his, and I had value other than a price for someone to fuck me.
My body warmed under his expert touch, and soon I was begging him for more.
“Please, Will.”
He moved farther down my body and I spread my thighs to give him room. He lapped at my pussy, then parted the folds to tease my clit with his tongue. I fisted the bedding as he licked and sucked, driving my need higher. He breached me with one finger, then two, as he lavished attention on my clit. He gently bit the nub and it was enough to make me come. I cried out his name as I twisted and thrashed, wanting the feelings to never stop.
When my body started to tremble as he licked at my clit some more, I knew that I wouldn’t be satisfied until he was inside me. In every part of me. I needed him to claim me thoroughly, to wipe out every bad memory.
“Will, I… I need you to do something for me. You may not like it.”
He came up over me, and I felt his cock brushing against me.
“What is it?” he asked. “Want me to stop? We don’t have to go any further.”
“No, it’s not that. I need…” I licked my lips. “I need you to take control.”
“Control?” he asked slowly.
“Yes. I need you to… I need you to claim me, to not hold back. You need to be forceful, even though I know you don’t want to, and you might need to tie me down at one point. I need to purge all the bad memories, Will. I need you to replace them with good ones. I trust you not to hurt me.”
“Claim you,” he said. “What if I scare you?”
“If I can’t handle it, I’ll let you know.”
“How?” he asked.
“A safe word?” I asked, thinking about some books I’d read. “Rabbit. If I say rabbit, then you need to back off and let me get my bearings.”
He nodded. “I can do that.”
I leaned up and kissed him, my lips softly brushing his.
“I trust you, Will. I know it’s just you and me in this room, and that you won’t let anything or anyone hurt me. Not even you,” I said.
“I need to get a few things.”
“I’ll wait here,” I said.
He got up and covered me with a blanket before he pulled on a pair of jeans and left the bedroom. I was a bit nervous, especially the longer he took to return, but he came back a while later with a small tote bag. I couldn’t tell what was in it, but I hadn’t lied to him. I really did trust him and knew he’d never do anything to hurt me. Not on purpose anyway. He’d caused me emotional pain before, but I hadn’t exactly stuck around for him to explain things so he wasn’t entirely to blame.
Will jerked the blanket off me and stared down at my body.
“Are you sure you’re ready for this?” he asked. “What we’ve done so far… it’s mild compared to what I’d like to do to you. I’ve held back because I didn’t think you could handle it, not with your past.”
“I’m sure,” I told him, and I meant it.
“All right.”
Will set the bag down and removed his boots, shirt, and jeans. I didn’t remember him putting boots on, or a shirt, and wondered if he’d had them in the front of the house. Had he left the house to go get the supplies he’d brought back? I eyed the bag again, curious about what was inside, but he drew my attention back to him with a snap of his fingers.
Will pointed to the floor at his feet.
“Kneel,” he commanded.
My heart started racing as I climbed out of bed and knelt at his feet, looking up at him and waiting for my next instruction.
Chapter Ten
Wraith
Christ! I couldn’t believe I was about to do this. I’d wanted to handle Rin with care, but she’d asked for more. Yeah, I’d pinned her under me that one time, but I’d felt like a complete ass afterward. If this was what she needed, to be used, to be claimed by me, then I’d do it. And when were done, I’d let Dr. Myron examine her and I’d have Zipper ink her. No more playing around. She was mine, and I wasn’t letting her go. Not now, not ever. She’d sealed her fate when she’d said she loved me. I should have said the words back, and I would when the time was right. Seconds before I murdered a group of men hadn’t seemed like the right moment, and this wasn’t it either.
She stared up at me from where she knelt at my feet, and I stroked my cock. Yeah, I was fucking hard even though I was at war with myself for what I was about to do. I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t pictured this, though. I’d wanted it, craved it, but no way would I ever have asked her to give over this much control to me, not after all she’d suffered.
She licked her lips as her gaze dropped to my dick.
“You want this?” I asked, still stroking my shaft.
“Yes.”
“Yes, what?” I asked. If she was going to throw out things like safe words, I wondered just how far she was willing to go.
“Yes, sir,” she said, her voice breathy as her eyes dilated.
Oh hell. It was turning her on, which just made my dick even harder. My naughty little girl.
“Lick it,” I said, pointing the head of my cock toward her mouth.
Her tongue flicked out and she lapped the pre-cum off the slit. I hissed in a breath as her little tongue darted out again to lick up more.
“Open.”
Her jaw dropped and I fed her every inch of my cock, not stopping until she’d taken all of it.
“That’s it, baby. You like my dick in your mouth, don’t you?” I fisted her hair as I thrust in and out. My hand tightened. “You’re going to take it all, aren’t you? Every damn inch, and you’ll swallow every drop of cum I give you. Because you’re my good girl, right?”
She hummed, and the glazed look in her eyes told me I wasn’t scaring her, just making her hot. Her nipples were tight little buds and I knew just what I’d do with them.
I thrust harder, going deep, but she never gagged and didn’t try to pull away. I shoved my cock into her mouth again and came, grunting as my release spurted into her hot little mouth. She sucked me dry and when I pulled out, she lapped up the rest from my shaft and around her lips. Such a little tease. She’d be using that tongue again at some point.
“Sit on the edge of the bed. Legs spread. Hands behind your back,” I said.
“Yes, sir,” she said and scurried to obey.
I reached into the bag and pulled out some nipple clamps that had a thin sliver chain running between them. Her eyes went a little wide as I clipped them into place, and she moaned as I tugged on the chain. With her legs spread, I could see her pussy clench and I smiled, knowing she wanted me as much as I wanted her.
“You want me to claim you? To mark you as mine?” I asked.
“Yes, sir,” she said softly.
“Spread your legs wider,” I said.
She parted her thighs more and I started stroking my cock again. Her lips parted and I could hear her ragged breathing as she watched me get myself off. It didn’t take much as I locked my gaze on her slick pussy and thought about how wet she’d be when I fucked her. I started coming and I let my cum spray across her breasts, down her belly, and the last drops landed on her pussy.
Even though I’d come twice, I knew I could go a few more times. I felt like an eager teen who couldn’t get enough. I moved in closer and pointed to my dick.
“Get me hard again. No hands, just your mouth.”
“Yes, sir.”
As tall as I was compared to her, all she had to do was lean forward and open her mouth. She took me inside, sucking long and hard until my cock started to stiffen. When I was fully erect again, I pulled free of her mouth.
“Crawl up the bed and place your hands on the headboard. Wrap your hands around the spindles,” I said. “Ass in the air.”
She gasped and scurried up the bed. But she’d forgotten one thing.
I kneeled behind her and my hand cracked down on her ass. She yelped and looked at me over her shoulder. I spanked her twice more.
“Forget something, baby?”
“Y-yes, sir.”
I reached into the bag again and pulled out some faux fur-lined cuffs. I fastened her to the headboard and waited a moment to see if she’d panic, but she didn’t. Gripping her hips tight, I thrust deep into her slick pussy. I rode her hard, our bodies slapping together. She was so fucking hot and tight, and incredibly wet. I’d almost go so far as to say she was wetter than she’d ever been with me.
I reached between her legs and parted the lips of her pussy. I kept stroking in and out of her and I could tell she was getting close.
“Ready to come, sweet girl?” I asked.
“Yes, sir.” She moaned. “Please, Will. Let me come.”
I pinched down on her clit and slammed into her harder. “Now, Rin! Come for me.”
She screamed as her pussy clenched my cock and her release coated me. I took her harder until I shot load after load of cum into her. If she weren’t already pregnant, that damn sure would have made it happen. My breathing was ragged and sweat slicked my skin. I ran my palm down her spine and felt her tremble under my touch.
“You okay, baby?” I asked softly. “If it’s too much, if I’m being too rough…”
“No!” She looked at me over her shoulder. “Keep going, Will. We’re not done. You haven’t claimed all of me yet.”
I looked down at the temptation of her ass and fuck if I didn’t start getting hard just thinking about getting to fuck her there. I grabbed some lube and worked on loosening her up so I wouldn’t hurt her. I took my time, enjoying the sounds she made as I worked my fingers in and out of her. My cock was still buried in her pussy as I prepped her, and I felt it twitch and jerk in her tight channel. Yeah, I was more than ready to fuck her again.
When I knew she was ready, I pulled out and spread her ass cheeks wide. Placing the head of my cock against her tight little hole, I slowly pushed inside her. Rin moaned and her back arched as I went deeper.
