Surviving, One Day at a Time (Demented Revengers MC: Quitman Chapter Book 2)

by Vera Quinn

  I move closer to Gage and I turn and take his face in my hands and kiss his cheek softly. Before I know it, Gage has me turned on my back and his body is half way over me and his mouth descends on mine.

  At first it is an innocent soft kiss on the lips, but when he licks across my mouth and I open for him and his tongue enters my mouth, he deepens the kiss. He has a minty taste mixed with wintergreen. Our tongues tangle and he dominates me while he is enslaving me with his loving caresses. My palms are beginning to sweat, but I move them to his leather vest and pull him to me. I feel butterflies in my stomach and I know my panties are wet from this one kiss.

  I hear him groan and I horrified. Did I do something wrong? I try to push him away. His mouth leaves mine and I am breathless. “Did I do something wrong? Did I hurt you? I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to. I told you I didn’t know what I was doing.”

  “Babe, you did everything right. Those weren’t groans of pain, only want and need. You taste so damn good. I’m going to undress and get under those covers with you so we can sleep. Is that good with you? No more kissing for tonight. I am already rock hard for you and I can only be so good.” Gage sounds breathless and that is good because that is exactly what I am. I want more. I want something. Sleep is not what I want.

  “That sounds good. My heart needs to slow down. You taste good yourself, and that kiss was so good. I want more, but I know you’re right.” Gage has gotten up and he is undressing. When he gets down to his jeans he hesitates.

  “Just so you know. I don’t wear underwear, so you are going to see my cock and it is hard. I just wanted to warn you before I drop my jeans.” Dear baby Jesus. This man is going to kill me.

  I turn over the other way and I feel him dip the bed down as he gets in bed. I hear him laugh and then I feel him behind me as he pulls me into his arms. I feel his big cock poking me. I move away a little, but I turn into his arms and he pulls me close. We get sorted out and comfortable as we can be and it feels natural. It feels like I have always belonged here. “Goodnight, Gage.”

  “Goodnight, babe. Get some sleep before my cock decides to not be good tonight.” He half turns and turns the night lamp off. How did I get so lucky? I am so comfortable and I feel completely safe for the first time in a long time.

  Lil

  It has taken Katie and me most of the day to decorate the tree and house. We did some baking while we took care of the house so I am bringing cookies with us to the clubhouse along with some more decorations I know we will need. There’s not many bikes out front, so I know most of the brothers are busy somewhere. There was a couple of cars out there so I know some of the club girls are here. We’ll see how this goes. I’ll just keep an extra eye out for trouble. DaVine and Dizzy are here and they are the two worst. “Katie, let’s get this done so we can get home and I can start dinner.”

  Katie grabs the cookies. I already warned her about lifting anything. I get the box out of the back of the truck and we make our way in. I spot Zig Zag at the end of the bar with Dizzy, DaVine is pouring herself shots. Looks like she is starting early today. I walk up to the bar and Katie follows and puts the cookies down. I walk over and set the box on the floor beside the tree in the corner. I see DaVine has noticed us and she takes another shot and slams the glass on the bar and makes her way from behind the bar over to us. I can tell she is already on her way to being drunk.

  “You’re the bitch Shine is fucking now, aren’t you? He’ll come back to me. There’s no way you can handle the man he is. I will be his old lady.” DaVine is slurring her words.

  “Get your drunk ass away from us and stay away, or I’ll have Jethro bar you.” I won’t put up with her mouth.

  “Mrs. Uppity has spoken. Really, Lil? Your man is not going to bar me. He likes what I can do with my mouth too much.” DaVine is way too drunk. She knows better than to mouth at me and to lie on Jethro. This will not go well for her. I know Jethro doesn’t cheat.

  “You just made your worst mistake. Jethro will throw your drunk ass out for spewing lies about him.” DaVine may be drunk but she moves up beside Katie before I can stop her. What she does next shocks everyone. She grabs Katie by her hair and tries to hit her, but Katie surprises the hell out of me. She knocks DaVine’s hand down and pushes her back against the bar by her throat.

  “I don’t know you or why you think you can bully me. I may be quiet and not good in crowds, but I have always had to take care of myself. If you touch me again I will kick your ass out of this clubhouse. Are we clear on that?”

  Zig Zag has moved over by DaVine and is standing there in case it gets out of hand. “Shine has decided he wants me and I want to give it a try, so leave us alone.” With that Katie lets DaVine go. Zig Zag takes DaVine by the arm and I nod for him to take her out. Jethro will deal with her later. I am amazed Katie does not seem affected at all until she winces and I know those quick moves hurt her ribs.

  “Are you okay, Katie?” She’s nodding her head, but I know it caused her pain. I smile at her. “I think you are going to fit in here just fine. You handled that in just the right way.” Katie smiles back.

  “Are you sure? I didn’t want to make anyone mad. Shine asked me to be his and I agreed. I’m not going to let anyone interfere with us. I want to fit in here.” Katie doesn’t know just how happy she has made me.

  “Thank you, Katie. DaVine overstepped and the brothers will take care of her. You are family now and I know Shine is over the moon happy. Never let a club girl run over you. I was worried you couldn’t handle this life, but you just showed me you can. Now, let’s get this finished so we can get home.” Yes, Katie is family now and that is the best Christmas present I could get.

  Chapter 13

  Shine

  Katie has been here almost two weeks and she is a more than I could have ever hoped for in an old lady. It’s Christmas Eve and today we went ahead and moved all of Katie’s stuff in the apartment over the barn. I want her in my house but we are taking it one step at a time. As long as I know she is mine, that is all that matters. After the altercation between them at the clubhouse, Cap banned DaVine. That’s not a headache I have to worry about anymore. Katie starts work right after New Year’s. She’s already doing housework for a paycheck, but her farm duties start then. Not that she hasn’t been attached to the animals already. I picked up her two perfect Christmas presents this morning. It’s a big surprise. She gets one tonight at the clubhouse and one in the morning at Lil and Cap’s.

  Katie finished her first semester of college and is already pre-enrolled for the next one. We got her fixed up with another old truck. She had her pick of the extra vehicles Cap and Lil had and she picked the oldest truck they had. She said it had character.

  All the brothers are getting restless and our stomachs are growling with the smells coming out of the kitchen. The clubhouse is festive with nearly everyone here. Lil and Katie have been cooking for three days. Lil finally comes out of the kitchen and waves Cap in to get the bird out of the oven. All the brothers make their way to the table. Cap sets the turkey in the middle of the food table and makes his way back over to have his say at the head of the table.

  “We have had a good year this year. Everyone is healthy and we haven’t lost any of our loved ones. We’ve added Katie, so everything is good. We are expanding our territory and our businesses are prosperous. All in all, a great year. Thank you ladies for doing a great job on our meal. Let’s eat.” Cap grabs a plate and everyone follows him. It was a great meal. The ladies cooked, so the prospects clean.

  After everything is cleaned and put away we make our way over by the bar and the tree. It’s full of presents. Lil makes sure everyone has at least one for tonight and one for in the morning. She’s our own Santa. Katie’s present for here, I took care of.

  Everyone has a gift wrapped present in front of them, so I take the envelope out of my pocket. I try to straighten it, but it really doesn’t matter. I hand it to her and she stares at it. I th
ink she will love it, but now I have doubts. She is going first or my nerves will kill me. “Katie, you get to go first.” Katie is still kind of shy, so she looks to me and I nod my head. She rips the envelope open and she gets the biggest smile on her face.

  “You got me a puppy. Thank you. I’ve never had a pet of my own before. I’ve never been in a situation that I could take care of one.” Katie has tears in her eyes.

  “Katie Bug, are you okay? I didn’t mean to make you cry. I will get you something different if you want me to.” I just wanted to make her happy. She loves Lil’s pets.

  “These are happy tears. I have a home so I can take care of a dog of my own. When can we go to the shelter to get it?” She likes it.

  “They won’t be open until Monday. You can pick the one you want. I paid all the fees. You just have to find the one right for you. I thought it would be better that way.” Katie comes over and sits in my lap with a big smile on her face. My baby is happy. She stays in my lap most of the rest of the night until it is time to leave. Everyone else opens their gifts and we celebrate, but after a couple of hours the club girls start to arrive and I know it is time to take my baby home. I want to go home and curl up with Katie in her new apartment.

  Chapter 14

  Katie

  My life has changed so much in a few weeks. I have a new family, an apartment, a job, and a boyfriend. I am truly blessed. Tonight, I am hoping Gage and I finally make love. We have been sleeping in the same bed since my first night here, but besides a few heavy make out sessions, we have abstained. It didn’t feel right considering we were in someone else’s house. Plus, I am very nervous. What if I am not enough for him? I have no experience with men. He says he values my innocence and will wait as long as I need, but I want to really belong to Gage. Lil explained to me that is how a biker truly claims his woman and I want that so bad. Gage is so sexy and when he kisses me I lose all my senses. I have never felt that way before, much more and I may internally combust with the want I have for him. It’s more of a need now.

  I see the drive for my apartment up ahead and I feel the butterflies in my stomach. It is cool out tonight but when I am sitting behind Gage on his bike so all I feel is his warmth and my nervous anticipation. Gage parks the bike and helps me off and finally breaks our silence.

  “Babe, you know you have nothing to be nervous about, right? I mean, if all I do is hold you in my arms all night long that is perfectly fine. I am not pressuring you for anything. I said this goes at your own pace and I meant it.” Gage is always so thoughtful. His kindness and the way he shows me every day he cares for me is why I have fallen in love with him.

  “I know, Gage.” I look at his oh so handsome face, and I want nothing more than to jump him right here. Instead I let him know exactly how I feel about him. “You have been so kind to me, and patient. You show me every day how lucky I am to have you in my life. I’ve fallen in love with you. I know it seems fast, but my Grammy told me if I ever find a man that I could never imagine not having in my life every day then tell them. Tomorrow is never promised and you never know when today is your last chance. So Gage Lawson, I love you.”

  Gage pulls me into him and crushes me into his chest. “I love you, too, Katie Walton. I love you so much.” With that he picks me up bridal style and carries me up the stairs to my apartment. I fish the keys out of my back pocket and hand them to him. He sets me down long enough to unlock the door and pushes it open and then he picks me back up and carries me in and toes the door shut.

  He carries me straight to our bed and lies me down and takes my shoes off. Then he toes his off and takes his cut off and lies it across the back of my rocking chair beside the bed. He joins me on the bed and takes me in his arms. I enjoy the feel of his strong arms around me and my head is on his massive chest. I run my hand down the front of his shirt and then stick my cold hand on his impressive abs and he jumps from the coldness of it.

  “Damn babe! Your hand is like ice.” I rub it all over his stomach and chest, warming it.

  “I would say I am sorry, but I’m not. You are my own personal heater.” His body feels so good under my hand, but it has nothing to with my body temperature.

  “I’ll be whatever you want me to be.” With that his mouth consumes me. He is in control of me as our tongues tangle. He leaves me with no control over my own body. I am leaning into him and want as close as I can get. I feel his hands lifting my blouse over my head and then he is unclasping my bra. I want it gone. He’s sucking slowly on my tongue and my nipples have hardened. I so want his mouth on them. I whimper with the want for his mouth, but he reads my mind and trails soft kisses from my lips to my neck and finally to the nipples that want his attention. He sucks softly then teases me with soft tongue lashings, alternating between the two.

  “Babe, you are so damn beautiful. Are you sure? We can wait.” If this man does not quit talking I am going to lose my mind. I already can’t think of anything but wanting him.

  “I want you to make me yours. I need you inside me. Please.” I’m rubbing myself up against Gage and I can’t seem to get close enough.

  “You don’t know what hearing you say that does to me. I’ve wanted you since I first laid eyes on you.” Gage is kissing his way down my belly and unsnaps my jeans. I try to help him get them off by wiggling my hips. They are finally off and Gage stands up and takes his clothes off. I see his cock and I am instantly shocked. He is pierced and he has a tattoo on his pelvic area. I start laughing when I make out what it says. “A man does not like to hear his woman laugh when she’s looking at his cock. Something funny?”

  I can barely stop laughing to answer. “Your gateway to heaven. Really Gage? You could have gotten a picture or have it say something cool.” He smiles.

  “I was drunk off my ass and only eighteen. I thought it was cool. Con has one that says cockman. I think mine is a little better.” Oh crap. He’s right. I’ll never look at Con and not be able to think about it and laugh.

  Gage makes it back up in the bed beside me and the minute his hand touches me all the laughing is gone. My body is on fire for him. “Babe, are you still a virgin?” I can’t say anything. I just nod my head yes. “There’s no way this is not going to be a little uncomfortable. Do you trust me?” I nod my head yes again. “I need the words, babe.”

  “Yes, I trust you, but I want this more than anything. Please.” I see the concern in his eyes.

  “Anytime you need to stop or want to stop say so. I will be as gentle as possible, but it is going to hurt a little.” Gage is being so sweet and tender. I pull him to me because I just can’t wait anymore. I kiss him softly on the lips and suck his bottom lip in my mouth as he opens for me.

  I’m not sure I am doing it right, but I can’t get close enough. He groans and takes over the kiss, deeper and dominating. He’s towering over my body, laying between my legs. Just when I think I will have to pull away for air he kisses the side of my face down to my tip of my nipple. When he takes it in his mouth I squeeze my thighs together, but he doesn’t stop. He’s sliding down my stomach and kisses my belly button and slides lower. I start to sit up, his hand keeps me down. He is looking at me with lust in his eyes. “Lay back, babe. I’m going to make sure you’re ready for me.” He kisses further and he’s between my legs. When his tongue swipes across my clit, my back comes off the bed. I can’t believe what Shine is doing to me.

  I am horrified but I don’t want him to stop. I need more. Something is happening to my body. There’s something building. My legs are having spasms and my insides are clenching. Noises are escaping me.

  “Babe, you taste so good and you are so wet.” He licks across the tiny bud and slides his finger inside. He repeats it and then he has two inside me. I’m pushing down on his fingers. He sucks my clit in his mouth again and then he is up and reaches for his jeans. He has a condom and has it on in no time. “Are you sure, babe? Once I’m inside you, I don’t know if I can stop. I want inside your pussy so bad.” I look at his c
ock and it looks huge.

  “Please. I need you.” That all it takes. He is back in between my legs and I feel his cock at my entrance as he pushes slowly in. I need him now. I am about to lose my mind. “Now, please.” He pushes all the way in and I feel the burn and the pinch of pain when he bottoms out. He goes completely still. The pain doesn’t last very long. He starts to kiss me and I can’t help but to wiggle and he took that as his permission to slide out and back in. Better. I push up and that was all it took for him to take over.

  “God, babe. You feel so damn good. So tight. I don’t know how slow I can go this time. I need you too much.” With that he slides back out until only his head is left in and then slowly slides back in. Damn. That feels great.

  “Faster, Gage. I need you to go faster. Please, go faster.” He looks in my eyes to make sure and he sees I need more. He sets a pace pulling almost all the way out and sliding back in. I wrap my legs around his back and pull him as close to me as I can. He rotates his hips and I feel something mounting inside me. I am meeting his every thrust. We are both covered in sweat. He brings his hand in between us and starts massaging my clit and that’s all it takes. I feel it. Spasms and contractions. I am scratching his back and when I finally release I shout out his name. “Damn, Gage! Yes! On my god, yes!” I feel Gage letting go as he reaches his own release.

  “Katie, I love you! Oh shit!” He thrust for two more strokes and relaxes. He rolls me over to the side to keep his weight off of me. “Are you ok? Did I hurt your ribs again?”

  “Only in a good way. I love you, Gage. I never knew it could be so beautiful.” He pulls me in his arms and hugs me. Then he gets up and I thought I did something wrong. He sees the look on my face.
