“Then,” he says, “all you have to do now is love me back.”
I rise up on tiptoes and kiss him again. This is the taste of the man I love. The man I’m going to love for the rest of my life. He makes everything worth it. “I can do that.”
His hands roam my body and before I can stop myself, I’m pressing my lips to his with a greater need than I’ve felt before.
He groans deep in his throat as his thumbs hook the waistline of my pants, tugging ever so slightly. As my body heats and my heart races for more, he pulls back, but only to look over his shoulder.
Just as I think he’ll deny me, that it’s utterly insane to want him after what just happened, he tugs my hand, says “Come here,” and leads me to a short hallway.
Before I can look around or question anything, his lips are on mine.
He presses my back against the wall and his fingers drift up my shirt. His touch is both demanding and gentle, both sides of this man I love. He takes from me in a way that fills me with a deep need for more. I could never have enough of this man.
Hips press against mine and his tongue sweeps against mine before he nips my bottom lip and then murmurs for me to turn around. It’s a heady feeling, when desire takes over and I give in to it, doing everything he tells me.
“You’ll be quiet, my naïve girl,” he tells me as he unbuckles his pants and then pulls mine down. “Won’t you?” he questions at the shell of my ear, sending delicate shivers down my spine and pebbling my nipples. The head of his cock plays at my entrance and I would agree to whatever he demanded.
I curve my back for him as I nod my head and answer, “Yes, Declan.”
In a single thrust, he’s inside of me. The quick sting of sweet pain and impending pleasure force a gasp from me. As I brace myself against the wall, he fucks me relentlessly. It’s all too much too fast and yet at the same time, I need more.
I need all of him. As if answering my unspoken desire, his left hand sweeps under my shirt and bra, cupping and kneading my breast. He pinches my nipple at the same time that he nips the curve of my neck. The pleasure rises and it takes everything in me to be as quiet as I can be as he fucks me with a hunger I’ve never felt before. Murmuring how I’m his good girl and that he loves me.
DECLAN
“One rat down…the rest of them need to go too,” I mutter to my brother as we drive along the gravel road to an old house by the river. This place used to be an escape, a rundown shack in the middle of nowhere. No one would find us here when we were kids. We were trying to figure shit out without going back home where our father was waiting and slowly killing himself with alcohol.
Until we did get found. A cocky smirk lifts my lips as I take in the dilapidated place. “My first arrest happened right there.” I point to the cracked concrete front steps, remembering how scared I was and knowing that the cop only lived another month after those cuffs were locked around my wrist.
Carter puts the car in park and Jase pipes up from the back seat, “Good times.”
Rough chuckles from the four of us fill the cab of the car.
They’re quickly silenced as my phone pings. “They’re almost here,“ I tell my brothers, reading the message from the tracker on the back of the detective’s car.
I knew he wouldn’t be able to resist. So we used Nate’s phone to respond to the waiting messages. Detective Mauer is expecting an exchange tonight. He’s planning on arresting Nate and me and helping Nate get out of the mess he got into. He said he’d give him a deal. This isn’t a plan to take us down, it’s a plan to get Nate out. Too bad for the good detective, Nate is already dead and Mauer’s about to join him.
“How many are with him?” Carter asks.
“He’d be stupid to come without back up, even if he thinks it’s just Declan and Nate.” Daniel answers.
It’s not enough to get rid of one bad apple, so to speak. That cop who arrested me years ago came down for a drug bust and stumbled on something bigger. He had to go, but no one else was involved. Over time, that changed. Like the shit we’re dealing with now. There were six total. The first two were Scarlet and Nate. Next the female cop N took care of who was working with Nate.
