“Yes. I’m taking out any f**ker related to Gonzalez. He’s got people on the force, and there’s a couple of pimps hanging around. Torturing Donovan revealed he’s keeping several girls and pimps at Jerry’s old place.”
She gasped, pressing a hand to her lips. “Does this man have no f**king respect?”
“No, he doesn’t. This is what I’m talking about, Lex. He’s got to be stopped otherwise there’s going to be a lot more of our women in the hospital.” He stepped and looked down at his feet. “Judi’s in the hospital because of this f**ker, and thinking of her broken and beaten like that, sucks.” He shook his head, annoyed. “I can’t let another woman go through what she went through. Ripper’s by her side, and I know he won’t be coming with us this coming week. He’s staying behind. Can you imagine us without Curse, Pussy, even myself?”
“Devil?”
“No, you don’t understand. When it comes to you, baby, I can’t think straight. You mean that much to me, and Gonzalez knows it. He wants shit done by me, and all he has to do is threaten you.” He stepped back up to her. Devil ran his fingers through her hair, locking the strands around his fingers.
“Then you’ve got to make sure he doesn’t know what hold he has over you.” She touched his cheek, feeling the roughness from the day’s growth.
“He already knows what kind of hold he’s got over me, baby. It’s now up to me that I make sure he doesn’t get a chance like he did this morning.”
The mention of this morning had her drawing in a breath.
“Don’t mention this morning,” she said, pulling away from him.
Devil still held her hair in his hands, so there was no chance of her getting away. Staring into his eyes, she saw the depth of his emotion. On the outside, Devil was this rough, hard biker, yet on the inside, when no one was watching, he was this tender man. His heart was bigger than anyone she’d known, especially when it came to the club and her.
“Do you know I wasn’t even tempted to kill him,” Devil said.
“You can’t say that. I saw your finger on the trigger, Devil. You can’t lie like that.”
“I’m not lying. I’m telling you the truth. I wasn’t tempted to kill him because I knew you would die. Don’t get me wrong, Lex. If he didn’t have you then I’d have shot that bastard in the face.” He tilted her head back.
With his free hand, he ran a finger over her lips.
The tension in the room changed. The air became almost charged.
“We shouldn’t be doing this,” she said.
Her body grew hot from the slightest touch of his fingers.
“Why? This is going to be our last chance for some time. I’ve got a lot of plans,” he said.
She knew there was a risk that he was going to die.
Running her hand up and down his chest, she tried to think of a good enough argument as to why he shouldn’t do it.
“I wish there was something I could tell you to stop this. I don’t want you to put yourself at risk or for you to get hurt.”
He tugged on the strands of her hair, pulling her head back.
“I’ll always be here, and I’ve made sure you’ll be protected if this doesn’t go my way. You’ll want for nothing when you’re with me.” He ran the back of his knuckles against her cheek.
“I don’t want you to tell me what I can have even if you died, Devil.”
“When you were pregnant with Josh, I had no choice but to think about life without you.” He caressed the rounded curve of her stomach. “You told me that I’d have to love our child, but I knew I wouldn’t be able to bear looking at a child, even mine, who killed you.”
When she first heard Devil mention that he couldn’t love any child who killed her, she’d had an issue with it. She couldn’t handle the stress of worrying about if he could love their child or not.
“Come with me,” he said.
Lexie followed him out of the office and up the stairs toward their room. No one stopped them as they passed. All the men were sipping at beers. There were no parties going on, their somber faces showing the risk that they were all under. The drugs were no longer present, and the sweet-butts had been sent on their way until it was safe.
None of the men paid them any attention. After she followed Devil up to their room, he pulled her inside, pressing her against the closed door.
His lips were on hers seconds later. He thrust his tongue inside her mouth, going across her lips then sliding in deep.
She moaned, loving the taste of him as he exploded on her tongue.
“I f**king love you,” he said, muttering the words against her mouth. Tugging at his shirt, he had to pull away so that she could rid his body of the material.
Scoring his chest with her nails, she moaned as he tore her shirt open. Buttons sprayed either side of her as he tore the fabric from her.
Lexie wore a plain white lace bra with a matching pair of panties.
“Fuck, I love you in this set.” He dragged the straps of her bra down her arms. Her tits spilled out of the top. Devil reached around behind her to unclip her bra.
Wrapping her arms around his neck, she cried out as he picked her up banding his arms around her waist. His lips were on hers as he turned her toward the bed.
Devil placed her on her feet at the base of their bed. The lights were turned low enough for them to see each other.
He pushed her skirt down her thighs. She stepped out of it as she tugged at the button of his jeans.
“I love you, too,” she said.
Within seconds they were naked. She stared at the rock hard length of his cock. He stood out, hard, proud, and the tip was leaking pr**cum.
Gripping the length, she ran her thumb over the tip, watching him growl.
Sinking to her knees, she stared up the length of his body. “If this is going to be our last time together until all of this is over then I want it to be memorable.” She leaned forward, sliding her tongue over the tip. The taste of his pr**cum slid across her tongue.
Closing her eyes, she moaned around the taste of him.
“That’s it, baby. Fuck, you’re so f**king perfect.” He stroked her hair, running his fingers through the length. Devil held the back of her head as he pumped in and out of her mouth.
She sucked him in deep, loving the feel of him hitting the back of her throat. “You’re so f**king sexy taking my cock.”
Swallowing the tip down, she closed her eyes and simply allowed herself to feel what he was doing.
