“Please Bane, I need you inside me,” she begged.
He entered her slowly, softly, stretching her to fit around his girth. Once there, he wasn’t in any hurry, as he just wanted to prolong the pleasure for them both.
She groaned and whispered, “You fill me up inside. You make me feel....” She swiveled her hips.
Bane paused to meet her eyes. “Tell me...” he smirked. “How do you feel?”
She stared at him. Then getting the joke as rare as it was coming from him...a giggle slipped out again.
Satisfied at the sweet smile on her lips, he began stroking her more deeply.
She moaned as he filled her up time after time.
He moved slow and steady but that’s not what she wanted. She tightened her muscles and began to move her hips in a sensual motion.
He growled again and began to stroke her harder and deeper. “Is this making you happy?”
“Oh God, yes.” She moaned as her slim legs wrapped around his hard body.
Bane loved when she asserted herself, he found that this woman was one person that he did not want to control. As he felt her breath on his neck, it gave him a sense of peace, serenity, and heat all at the same time. His strokes went deeper than before and soon, he was pummeling into her. His beast was loose and this time, Bane did not reel him in.
As they inched closer to the crest of the abyss, her embracing him with her legs got even stronger as her nails scored his back.
She gave all of herself to him, as she had from the very beginning. He reveled in the trust she put in him and he vowed to never break that trust. Then he pushed her over the top and watched her face as he gazed into her eyes when she flew over. He found he would never get enough of this experience, her beauty reflected from her soul and her pure heart.
He felt the zing at the base of his spine immediately and he joined her. Filling her as he never broke the lock he had on her gaze. He held his weight above her even though he was spent. He tried to move over.
Sighing, she refused to unlock her legs from around his waist.
“Sarah, I don’t want to press on your belly.”
She reluctantly unclasped her thighs from his body.
He slumped down at her side, but grabbed her up to place her on his chest and wrapped her in his arms. “Better?”
She nodded.
They remained this way, in the quiet. This woman was rare as she didn’t seem to require a lot of talk afterwards, he still couldn’t fathom how he had deserved such a woman as Sarah. He opened his eyes, as he was startled suddenly. He felt something and paused to identify it. Tranquility? No... that was not it. This was a warmth, but slow burning, not like the heat of rage, which was something he still felt too often...he could not figure it out.
“I love you, Bane...”
Sarah’s soft, gentle voice eased over him like a cloud of that same warmth he felt inside.
Now, he had the answer.
Bane opened his mouth to say it back, to say something aloud that he never thought he would in his lifetime. Then her sweet soft snore came to his ears. He let out a breath...he would say it, someday.
A Peek into VIM #4....
Cane sat in the room Bane had led him to, down the stairs behind a damn fireplace of all things.
His brother sat across from him, remaining silent.
Cane had been reading his grandfather’s files that Bane had pulled out of a hand carved box. The more he read, the more he wondered. This life his family had led. It could have been the life of any one of the criminals he himself had tracked and put into prison over the years.
However, he refused to allow this fact to deter him from reading until the very end of the last page. He would at least honor the Jessin name by doing this one thing. When he reached that final page, he looked up at his twin. “He was a strange man,” was all he said.
Bane raised a brow at him. “I suppose to you, he would seem that way.”
“Seem?” Cane again looked down at the pages. “I think you were too close to that fire to even get burned.”
His brother said nothing.
Cane finally finished the tale his grandfather had left before departing from this earth. He again, looked up at Bane.
“We need to hunt this Pentagast and end him,” Bane stated coldly, quietly.
Cane set the papers down on the table. “I don’t end people, brother.”
“Well, I do,” came the response.
Cane stared at his almost exact image sitting across from him like a mirrored reflection. “You are saying that I should join you in hunting this psycho down.”
“You should, yes.”
Cane felt conflicted. He hadn’t planned on a brother. He hadn’t planned on sitting across from said brother who had been the most renowned killer of the twenty-first century. One who had been raised and trained by another world renowned killer from the twentieth century, no less.
“I looked into your background, Cane,” Bane stated. “You may be a better tracker than I am.”
Cane shook his head. “Not sure if that is a compliment.”
Bane as was his habit, said nothing.
“If I do this...” Cane looked into those identical eyes. “You need to promise me that we will try to take him by legal means.”
Bane scoffed. “I never repeat the same mistake.”
Cane chuckled. “And I abide by the law, while you break it.”
Bane studied him as he steepled his fingers. “Then having both sides of the same coin should accomplish the task of finding a killer that is almost invisible while using clues that are almost 20 years old.”
Cane sat back in his chair and also steepled his fingers. “Are you challenging me, brother?”
“Of course,” was all the reply he got.
Cane leaned forward and whispered, “Vengeance is mine.”
Bane’s brows rose at his use of that particular phrase.
Cane then finished with, “...saith, the lord.”
Bane shook his head as if to disagree with the verse. “It is ours to avenge and we will repay.”
Author of the bestselling, award winning Bratva Brothers and Satan Spawns/Sin’s Bastards MC Series...
I live in a small town (population495) in Wisconsin. From my deck, I can see the Mississippi River on one side and the bluffs, where eagles live and nest on the other side. I live with my husband Dave and dog Buddy. My two children are grown and I have two grandchildren. I love to watch people and that has helped me with my writing. I often use people I watch as characters in my books and I always try to give my characters some of my own values and habits.
I love to create characters and put them in a troubling situation then sit back and let them do all the work. My characters surprise even me at times. At some point in the book, they take on a life of their own and the twists and turns they create becomes the story. Of all the stories I could write, I found I like suspense/thrillers the best. I like to keep my readers guessing until the very end of the book.
