Sins of a Bad Boy (The Original Bad Boys Book 1)

by Naomi, Soraya

  In the time he had left on this earth, he was done fighting their bond. It was a useless war with himself, and the time had come to forgive the past and start over together because being apart shattered them both.

  He came up behind Ivy and folded his arms around her waist. She rested her head back against his chest as he whispered, “I’m done fighting us, Ivy. I’m sorry about pushing you away. Your disappearance proved to me that I need to let go of our past because I can’t let go of you.”

  Ivy turned in his embrace and the cloak fell to the floor, leaving her in a white dress.

  William continued, hoping she wouldn’t deny him. “I don’t know what I would do if any harm came to you.”

  “But you’re harming me with this distance…with your new girlfriend,” she said whisper-soft.

  “She meant nothing. I was stupidly trying to cope and get over you. I won’t see her ever again.”

  “Has she been here?”

  “No, Ivy. She hasn’t been in my bed. I couldn’t…I just couldn’t do that.” He wanted to steer the conversation back on course. “I don’t want to live in anger. I’m still mad about how you handled Eva’s birth, but I promise to get past it. Eva and I need you in our family. Ivy, I was terrified that you had been hurt, and it nearly gutted me.” His hand started to rub circles over her back. “We still have that inexplicable bond. Ours is a connection that can never be severed. Even though you can’t see me, you’re always aware of my every move.”

  Her hand came up to stroke his beard.

  “I want you to stay here with Eva and me. You belong with us. Forget the boy that kidnapped you a year ago. I want you to get to know the man that I’ve become. Please forgive me too and come back to us. “

  “Oh, William. I’ve already forgiven you. I was simply waiting for you to give me another chance. I’ve wanted to start over for so long.”

  Then William couldn’t hold back any longer. He wanted to take what he owned. He lowered his head and pressed a soft kiss to the edge of her mouth, which she responded to eagerly.

  Taking it slow was far from their minds. Ivy spun around and continued to sweep her tongue inside his mouth as he yanked her dress down her body.

  “I want you completely naked,” he growled and easily tore the fabric of her panties with one hand.

  Together, they stumbled to the dinner table, and William leaned his ass against it. Ivy’s palm traced down the row of buttons on his dress shirt, but she was as impatient as he was, so she ripped his shirt open, and the buttons clanked on the floor.

  While William hurried out of his shirt, Ivy swiftly unfastened his pants. There was no hesitancy in her movement, except when she slowed to feel her way around his clothes and body, which made her touch even more intimate. William reveled in how focused and passionate she was. Ivy was a warrior who didn’t let anything keep her from her goal.

  She kneeled down as William gripped the edge of the table, taking his slacks with her, and raked her nails up his thighs.

  Then she took the base of his cock in hand and wrapped her lips around the head. She pumped him as her head bobbed, and he was immediately rock-hard.

  William dropped his head back and closed his eyes as she hungrily sucked him, but he wanted to watch her. He sifted both hands through her curls and cupped the back of her head, rolling his hips and shoving his cock down her throat. Ivy’s nails grazed his balls, and he had to stop fucking her mouth if he didn’t want to blow his load before they even got started.

  “Up.” He pulled her up with one hand still in her hair.

  They rotated and William boosted Ivy onto the table, sliding her to the edge. Then he hooked his arms under her knees, pressing them toward her chest while he leaned forward to slant his mouth over hers.

  “I missed you,” she said, constantly caressing his face, neck, and shoulders.

  William realized that Ivy mostly used touch and hearing now, so he decided to talk more while he worshipped her body to make sure she knew how much he desired her.

  “You’re so beautiful spread out on the table, Ivy.” He kissed his way down her throat, rubbing his hard cock alongside her wet pussy. “I’ve missed you too.” He bit her nipple, and her back arched off the table.

  William nudged the head of his cock inside, and then he drove in. She was spread wide, his arms hooking her legs back, and he was kissing her brutally. Repossessing his Ivy.

  “God, you feel too good wrapped around my cock.” He raised up into a standing position, holding Ivy’s ankles draped over his chest as he hammered into her.

  “Yes, William. Harder!” she panted.

  William kept roaming his hands down Ivy’s legs, making sure she felt him everywhere. He ran his palm down her stomach, then touched the place where he entered her, the place where heaven began and ended.

  He took a deep breath, crazy with lust for Ivy. Then William lifted her up and kissed her, their teeth clashing as he carried her to the back of the sofa. He quickly pulled out of her, turned her around, and draped her over the back on her stomach. And he sank into her pussy again from behind, burying his cock deep while both of them made soft groans and moans.

  William watched his cock disappear into her pussy while he rubbed her ass cheeks. Then he spanked her once, twice. Pushing his cock in to the hilt. Then another thwack on her ass as she mewled with pleasure. His palm came around her stomach and down to her clit so he could rub her. His hips made circles, straining. She moved her pussy against his hand while his cock slammed inside her, and the couch cushion muffled her moan when she shattered around his cock, whimpering and shuddering uncontrollably.

  His climax followed close behind as he bottomed out, and his balls tightened when his peak exploded in his groin. He expelled a low, throaty groan and collapsed on top of Ivy.

  “I’ll fuck your ass later today,” he uttered and was rewarded with a smile.

  William pulled out of her, took her hand, and led them to the other side of the couch to lie down together.

  William lay down first, and Ivy draped half of her body over him when she settled onto the sofa as well. He held her close to his chest and entangled their legs.

  “I love you,” she said softly in her husky voice, and a fierce longing fissured through him with an almost painful prickling.

  He clasped her face with both hands and tilted her head back, seeking a thorough kiss. “I love you too.” And even though she was blind, she managed to look straight at him with her luminous blue eyes.

  CHAPTER 58

  Ivy

  The hole in Ivy’s heart shrank when William finally gave them another chance. There wasn’t a moment when Ivy hesitated.

  As she’d waited for salvation that entire cold night in the park, she’d only thought of William. While their relationship had been unpredictable and messed up from the start, he was the man that couldn’t escape her memory. She didn’t want to be apart from William, not ever again. She’d already forgiven him everything that had occurred in their past. And if he could forgive her, then she wouldn’t walk away from him.

  With that choice, her life changed for the better. Her family, which had consisted of only Sean and herself for so long, expanded with Eva, William, Silk, and Julia on the day she moved in with William.

  Julia moved to an apartment one floor lower, and after Ivy hinted to William that she wanted Sean nearby, Sean also moved into the high-rise. And now, Sean worked as a bartender in the gambling club as well.

  As William and Ivy adjusted to their new life together, William acted very agreeable, granting Ivy’s every request. However, in typical William fashion, he also became fiercely possessive and protective of her. She detected it in how he would bark orders and demand to know where she was every second of the day. And he absolutely forbade her to go outside alone. It was a challenge, but she learned how to handle him, although sometimes she just needed to do what she wanted. That quality in her would never change. So when she did defy his orders – making him livid – Ivy a
lways remembered that the night she slept in the park had terrified William, so she obliged him. Furthermore, she believed that his protectiveness would lessen when they both became more accustomed to her condition.

  Fortunately, taking care of Eva became easier every day, and William’s apartment turned into Ivy’s first real home. William had promised to never change anything about the interior to make it easier for Ivy to maneuver around, and it was. Nowadays, she could stroll around it with Eva in her arms without bumping against tables or objects left and right. Also, to help Ivy to adjust more quickly to her blindness, William hired a private teacher that worked with her three times a week. And he absolutely refused to allow Tim close to her again.

  So slowly, yet happily, Ivy conformed to her new life. The life she’d aspired to for a long time. She realized that both she and William were glad to have this third chance, and they worked hard to build trust, though at times, they still argued when one found it difficult to trust the other. Therefore, they learned to compromise. When William would come home late, Ivy would be annoyed. But then he told her that she could come downstairs anytime she liked, so she started to visit the gambling club on random nights. The second she arrived, one of the employees would tell William, and he would be by her side to help her. He was always there for her, and his devotion only deepened her feelings.

  And although William treated Ivy like a fragile piece of glass, Ivy got that he was still a ruthless businessman with Silk, but he was less merciless without Charles, and that thrilled her. She knew that William hid certain business matters from her, which was especially apparent when she’d walk into his office and everyone would get quiet, but she understood him better now. She accepted him as he was.

  Ivy never would have believed that William Kade would be such a dedicated father and partner, but it was fruitless to oppose the strength of his affection. When William loved, he did so with all that he had. William expelled her solitude by always talking to her and touching her because he understood that she lived in perpetual darkness, and anytime she needed it, he lived up to his promise of being her eyes.

  ****

  Most days, William returned to their apartment several times during the day to play with Eva, and today, he was home early when Ivy got back from the market with Sean.

  The elevator opened, and Ivy felt her way out of it with the cane scraping the ground in front of her.

  “Julia?”

  “Julia’s in the kitchen. I’m here,” William announced. “I’m on the couch with Eva.”

  “Did you miss us?” Ivy teased and counted five steps ahead to reach the coffee table. There, she deposited the cane and grocery bag to inch around toward the sofa.

  “Always,” he replied in a soft tone.

  “Is she awake?” Ivy asked as she sat down, recognizing William’s fresh soapy scent.

  She felt the cushion move as William scooted next to her. “No, she’s asleep. I’m cradling her on my chest and rubbing her back like she loves.”

  Ivy imagined seeing her little baby with reddish-brown hair in a cute pink dress, lying on her stomach on her daddy’s chest. “You’re spoiling her by having her always sleep in your arms. Do you want me to take her?’

  Ivy felt William’s lips press to hers, and the back of the couch dipped when he leaned back again. “No, I want to hold her like this. You come here too.”

  Ivy reached out to touch William’s side and realized that he was holding open his arm for her to cuddle against them. She snuggled into him, feeling relaxed. Simply content. She’d finally found shelter in the arms of her savior. William had saved her for the first time when she was eight years old, then he’d been her captor at eighteen, but in the end, he’d become her savior again.

  Eventually, their mistakes were what brought them together. They led to a love that shouldn’t have been, yet it was alive.

  Their mistakes brought them together. Their sins tied them together. Their love bound them together.

  EPILOGUE

  William

  Three years later

  Life. The journey always continues.

  William’s existence, which had been devoid before he had his family, wasn’t in the least anymore.

  In the past, he’d always needed a goal, and he’d lived being concentrated on that goal. When he was young, surviving was his goal. Then, after he met Charles, fighting and building his empire were his goals. But now, he only focused on himself and his family, who made him feel complete. Satisfied. Truly at ease. And every day, he reveled in going home to his baby girl and wife.

  William and Ivy married in a small, intimate ceremony in a church up north. While William had never even pondered marriage before he met Ivy, Sean had informed him that Ivy used to sneak into churches when she saw there was a wedding in process. So naturally, William arranged for a splendid church with a painted domed ceiling as their venue. The church had an impressive atmosphere and perfume, even when one closed his eyes, and that’s why William knew it was the perfect location for Ivy. Sean gave Ivy away, and she appeared to be an angel in white. She’d not opted for a veil that would hide her curls, because she knew William preferred to see her hair. That day when she officially became his was one he’d treasure always. Their souls were sealed in an official bond until death do them part.

  At long last, William Kade was at peace with his position in love and his position in life. A man that came from nothing, ended up with everything.

  As far as business went, Silk and William were now the proud owners of the Loop’s most notorious gambling club. Silk handled most of the administrative work, and their manager handled the operational business, leaving William to simply oversee everything and spend most of his time with his family.

  Apart from his business dealings, William’s days were filled with taking care of Eva and Ivy. And that fulfilled him. He and Ivy went out to dinner every night and visited different restaurants frequently – William still couldn’t believe how much Ivy could eat.

  William also still fought sometimes, but not professionally. He sparred with Silk every week, and he occasionally accepted invites from establishments to fight, but his days of needing to vent his emotions as William the Unconquerable had been over ever since a certain auburn-curled beauty had conquered his heart.

  But although William had found peace, his life wasn’t always quiet and simple. When someone endangered his family or his business, William was as ruthless as always. There were still times when he needed to use force in his club, and he didn’t hesitate to drag cheating players to his office and deal with them accordingly. And Silk, still the same rogue that he always was and the godfather of William’s child, was there to assist anytime, and in any way, William needed him to.

  Thankfully, William’s business life wasn’t so daunting anymore, because sometimes, living with Ivy proved to be difficult. She would have moments where her blindness distressed her. However, William had read that discussing the reason for her sadness with her was the best approach, so he talked her through things, even when it ended in a fight. In turn, a fight also meant makeup sex, and Ivy was a little vixen when she fucked him in anger, something William would never pass up.

  As time went by, Ivy was growing more beautiful with age and so was Eva, who was becoming her mother’s spitting image. William worshipped his baby girl, who now also had reddish-brown curls and talked his ear off often. But Eva also loved walking and running and would race out of his sight if he didn’t watch her like a hawk. He knew that if he had trouble keeping up with Eva, it must’ve been ten times more difficult for Ivy. So whenever Ivy ventured outside, there was always a guard following her without her knowledge. William wanted her to have a sense of freedom, but he’d never risk her safety, or Eva’s. He also ensured that he’d be notified immediately whenever Ivy entered the gambling hall so that he could go to her. His obsession with his wife didn’t upset him anymore – he just made sure everyone knew she was his.

  ***

  A
s William ascended to their apartment, he could already hear Eva singing in the living room, and when she heard the elevator mechanism, she screamed, “Daddy!”

  “Is that my favorite baby girl I hear?” William asked as the door opened and he stepped inside.

  “No!” a little girl with disheveled curls and dressed in a light yellow dress, who barely reached his knees, ran to him.

  “No?” he teased.

  “I’m your only baby girl,” she said, jumping into his arms as he scooted her up and scrunching her cute, tiny button nose.

  “That’s not true. Mommy is my baby girl too.” William kissed her soft cheek.

  Her eyes widened. “I’m your favorite? You love me more than Mommy?”

  “Yes, but don’t tell Mommy; it’s our little secret.”

  Eva smiled from ear to ear and brought her tiny finger to her mouth as if her father had divulged the biggest secret in the world. She was ecstatic to share this with her daddy. “Shhh…”

  “I heard that.” Ivy’s voice came drifting from the hall.

  “Busted,” William said with a smile, winking at Eva.

  “Oh, shit,” Eva blurted.

  “What did you say?” Ivy reprimanded. “Don’t say that.”

  “Daddy and Uncle Silk say it alllll the time,” Eva defended herself in all seriousness.

  William smirked and Ivy frowned and then scowled at him. This woman was oddly in tune with him and could sense his every reaction.

  William nipped Eva’s chubby cheek once more. “Don’t say that. Okay, baby girl? Daddy shouldn’t use those words either.”

  Eva shrugged and wriggled to be let go. William put her down and let her rummage through her toy chest in the corner where dolls and animals were rapidly tossed out onto the floor.

  “I told you to mind your cussing. She repeats everything these days,” Ivy chided William.

  He folded his arms around her and kissed her temple, smiling. “I apologize. I won’t cuss in front of her anymore.” And he kissed her mouth. “You look beautiful.”
