“How’s it going Katarina how’s the new baby?”
“We’re good Todd please is that lady going to be okay?”
“They’re going to run her in and check her over. Her vitals seem fine but they’ll have to check her for head trauma or anything internal. Your husband said you didn’t see her that she was just there? Could she have already been lying there you think, like maybe she fainted?”
“I really don’t know what happened but I know she wasn’t on the ground before I hit her I would’ve seen her. I went to turn in and there she was I didn’t even see her when I drove onto the street.” She was back to being nervous.
“Huh that’s odd it’s not that dark out yet, do you think she dashed out in front of you?” He turned to study the hedge on either side of the driveway but there were no houses on either side of us so this person would’ve had to deliberately do that if that were the case.
“I don’t know, I was looking where I was going I only noticed her when I felt the impact and then I jumped out of the car. At first I thought I might’ve hit a dog or something, I don’t understand what she was doing there or how she got there.”
“Who is she?” I watched as they loaded her up in the ambulance and took off.
“We’re not sure Mr. Lyon she doesn’t seem to be carrying any ID and she doesn’t look familiar. Everyone knows everyone in this town so we’re thinking maybe she’s visiting someone in the area for the holidays my guys are going to go door to door so we’ll have something for you soon.”
“Uh huh.” My gut was kicking the shit out of me at this point.
“Colt.”
“Listen I don’t care what you say I don’t trust this shit.”
“Well I need to get to the hospital and make sure she’s okay.”
“The fuck you do you’re crazy, you’re not going anywhere let the cops handle it they’ve got it under control right deputy?”
“Yes sir as far as we can tell it was an accident we’ll wait until she wakes up and get more from her. It could be something as simple as a slip and fall or maybe she’s on some sort of medication that’s made her disoriented the possibilities are endless.”
“I hope so, what a way to spend the holiday.” She tried passing the kid off to me when the cop left but I wasn’t having it.
“You’re not going anywhere Kat we’ll wait and see what they find and go from there do not fuck with me on this.” She had the good sense to stand down after a little staring match.
It wasn’t easy but I finally got her calmed down and called her dad to apprise him of the situation. I unloaded her million and one bags and took them inside. We got dinner ready together while our little princess gabbed away at us. I think she was trying to tell her mom the shit that I’d done while she was gone the little snitch. Good thing she couldn’t really talk yet. Kat still seemed preoccupied but she fed the baby and we went through our nightly ritual of playing in the bathtub and reading her a story together before we put her to bed. I don’t know if I’ll be able to be here for my little girl every time she needs me in the future but I sure as fuck am going to do it whenever I can now. So bath time and a story before bed was part of the deal. That’s something Elena and the pothead had taught me at least. Speaking of Elena I should probably call her and let her know what was going on over here and see if Char had any of her crazy ass visions. Funny how those things never worked unless they were sticking their nose in my private shit. Nosy ass women.
“Come here baby she’s going to be fine, we would’ve heard something by now if something was seriously wrong.” She was still moping around but I knew the best way to get her mind off this shit she can’t resist my dick even if the house was falling down around us.
I undressed her and then myself before getting into bed. It was a long day and I know my girl. She’d stress about this shit for the rest of the night if I let her. I started with her feet, little nibbles on her toes she likes that shit. I worked my way up her leg until I reached her pussy then after a few teasing licks made my way back down the other one. By the time I reached her heat again I was sure she had nothing else on her mind.
“Hurry Colt.”
I sucked her nipple into my mouth biting down none too gently for some extra stimulation while she rubbed my cock up and down her wet slit. My cock was at its fullest and my balls were already tight.
“You want me hard and fast?”
“No hold me.” Damn, fine I can find my control when I need to.
Since Caitlin slept through the night now we had time for a nice long session. I could take my time and give her the attention she seemed to need. Her body had gone back to its original form there was no sign of her having given birth except for the fullness in her breasts. She wanted to breast feed until the baby was at least one year old which was fine by me because that shit is one of the sexiest things I’ve ever seen. Not to mention my newfound fondness for breast milk. Looking deep into her eyes I let her lead me into her entrance before thrusting forward. I always like that first sensation when I enter her. It never changes for me, like coming home. I rocked into her gently just the way she wanted as her nails scored my ass and her hips moved beneath me.
“You’re beautiful Angel.” How the fuck she could blush while I was fucking her is beyond me. I kissed her hard as I sped up my movements just a tad going deeper and deeper with each stroke. Her loud moans filled the air as she kept pace with me until she came hard and long her body stretched like a bow.
“I need to fuck baby.” It was my turn.
I wasn’t easy as I lifted her ass making sure to sink two fingers home while I rubbed against the piercing in her clit. Her body shook and her pussy clenched around me as I pounded my way to orgasm. Grabbing her arms from around me I stretched them out above her head and biting into her up thrust nipple came a fuck load inside her. I didn’t go down so I kept fucking, pulling out once to turn her onto her hands and knees before driving back into her. I smacked her ass hard enough to make it red and she squealed as she flooded my cock once more. And when she arched her back I reached under her for her tits and pulled as I brought her off time and again. It’s going to be a long night.
Chapter 3
“I’ll get her.” I rolled out of bed and went to get my little princess the next morning. She was making enough racket to raise the damn dead, just like her mother.
“Hey, hey, hey I’m here, what’s with you this morning huh? Did you think daddy left you, huh? Come here beautiful girl.” I picked her up out of her crib and laid her on the changing table. She was giving me the stink eye I guess I’d taken too long.
“Listen you your old man got here in plenty of time so don’t you be giving me looks.” She giggled when I tickled her belly and started pumping her legs and cooing da, da, at me. Damn if the crew ever knew how teary eyed I got every time my little girl does that I’d never hear the end of it. After I got her all squared away I took her into her lazy ass mother who was still lolling around on the bed. When she sat up to get her breast ready for the feeding I was right there front and center, this was one of my favorite parts of the day the best way to start shit off. My greedy pig went to town on the tit while I laid across the bed watching them; this too was another ritual in the Lyon house.
“I’ll get cleaned up then go make eggs while you get Miss. Piggy dressed for the day sounds good?”
“Yes thank you.” We shared a kiss over the baby’s head before I headed for the shower. I miss having Kat in here with me but with the baby mornings were no longer our own. I took a hot one and went back into the room to get dressed in my usual jeans and Henley, my winter gear. My girls weren’t in the room and I could hear them yakking in the nursery as I made my way downstairs to make breakfast. They came down minutes later just as I was buttering the toast. I put some scrambled eggs on the baby’s high chair for her to play with as I sat down with Kat. I’m very conscious of these moments, I don’t know why or if it’s natural but I take in every fucking thing and h
ang on every word. I try to give her as much time now as I did in the beginning because I didn’t want to become one of those statistics and I didn’t want her to ever feel like I was taking her for granted or some shit. She still looks at me like I hung the fucking moon, which is good for my ego and I make sure she knows her man thinks she’s hot as fuck.
“Stop looking at me like that Angel your daughter has us in her scope.” I grinned across the table at her horny ass.
“I know but you know what your body does to me in those shirts.” She bit her lip and checked me out under her lashes.
“Cut that sh…mess out baby I’ve got to go soon the shop is a mad house and the guys have been coming in earlier so I got to be there.”
“So come home for lunch.”
“Sure thing, come here.” She hopped up from her chair and came around to me. I patted my lap for her to sit. Caitlin started clapping her little hands and it reminded me of how I used to feel as a kid when I saw my own parents being affectionate with each other. As an adult I wish they’d cut that embarrassing shit out but what can you do?
“I’ll give you a quickie at lunch but tonight after we put the princess to bed it’s you and me and the hot tub. It’s been a while since I took you there.”
“Um, I like the sounds of that maybe I can try this new thing I read about.”
“What new thing, there’s something we haven’t tried?” She whispered some shit in my ear that had my cock throbbing.
“Fuck babe you can’t tell me that shit right when I’m about to head out the door.”
“It’ll keep, gives you something to look forward to.”
“I love you you little freak.”
“Love you too.”
I hated like fuck to leave them but I had to get to the shop. While Kat cleaned up the kitchen I spent some time with my Caitie bear but then it was time to go. I hate that look my little girl gives me when I’m heading out the door, like I’m abandoning her or some shit but it just makes coming home that much sweeter at the end of the day.
“What are you two doing today?”
“Wrapping gifts; we’re staying in today because daddy has a conniption fit if we go out when he’s not here.”
“Funny, so you’re staying in today good, this way I don’t have to worry about you two getting into shit while I’m gone.”
“Colton seriously you do know women drive around with their babies everyday, you can’t hold us hostage here for the rest of our lives.”
“Listen it’s the holidays there’s been a rash of robberies and car jackings in the city not to mention whatever that was out there last night. I want you in here with the doors locked and the security on it’s either that or you come down to the shop with me right now.”
I knew without looking that she was rolling her eyes at me but whatever. It probably doesn’t say a lot about me but I honestly hadn’t given the girl a second thought after we went to bed last night. I’d called Jared secretly after dinner and told him to get some of the guys on it. I needed to know who she was before I could move forward with whatever I had to do. Kat was too trusting she believed anything and everything, me, no fucking way. I had a sudden thought just as I was ready to head out the door.
“Don’t leave this house for any reason Katarina or it’s going to be your ass.”
“Yes master.”
“Smart ass, come here let me say bye to my girls.”
I kissed them both goodbye and headed out. Now that I remembered her I had some shit to do, like figuring out why the fuck my gut was sending off warning bells. She hadn’t looked familiar and I knew for a fact that she wasn’t from around here because I know just about everyone in this town and I’d never laid eyes on her before. I guess it’s true that she could be a visitor but the cops hadn’t called and said anything and I found the whole mess very strange. No one had gone door to door looking for their missing loved one. Wouldn’t someone have said something by now if she was visiting someone in this neighborhood?
I called Drake when I reached the office to see if he had anything new for me but he had nothing. There was no word from anyone, no missing person’s report either, it’s as if she just turned up out of thin air.
“What are you thinking Colton?”
“What do you mean?”
“Let’s just say I’ve grown to know how you react when it comes to my daughter I’m just making sure you’re not going to do anything crazy. I heard about your reaction from one of my men, he said you seemed very suspicious of the whole situation. For all we know this could all be innocent.”
It has been a while since he brought up any of that shit from the past, mostly because I never had anything for him when he did ask. As far as I’m concerned I do what the fuck I have to to take care of what’s mine. I’d do that shit all over again. Motherfuckers should learn to stop fucking with me then they won’t get dead, the fuck.
“I’m cool no worries.” Uh huh.
“I have my guys on it but so far nobody has called in a missing person’s report, there were no strange vehicles in the neighborhood like maybe she drove there and got lost or something so right now we’re pretty much at a lost. The hospital said they’d keep us posted, there’s no serious damage that they can find so that’s good and Katarina’s in the clear, looks like a cut and dry accident.”
“Am I the only one who finds this whole thing strange?”
“Strange how?”
“Nobody knows who this person is, she just turns up under the front wheel of my wife’s car out of nowhere?”
“Colt I have a bet going with your father that you’re not nuts please don’t prove me wrong stop watching those damn cop shows they’re making you paranoid.”
“You and the pothead have a bet as to whether or not I’m crazy, nice.”
“If it’s any consolation I said you weren’t just maybe a tad bit over protective.”
“Uh huh, well while you two have your bets going I’m going to go figure out how to keep my wife and my little girl safe from assholes.”
“Keep your nose clean son, let the cops do their job.”
“Right catch you later.”
My ass.
I did some shit in my office but there really wasn’t much that needed doing. Cy had been picking up the slack where Kat had left off and it looked like he was going to fill that spot. It was his if he wanted it I just thought he’d prefer being out in the shop building shit but hey, whatever. I never once regretted the decision to bring that old guy home with us, he was a true asset and you couldn’t ask for better. After the thing with James it had taken him a while to quit beating up on himself, but Kat had worked her magic like only she could and he’d soon been back to normal. He was more than ready to move out and get his own place but Elena wasn’t having that shit. No way she was going to give up having somebody else to boss around and I think dad liked having a partner in crime close at hand. What the two of them got up to I tried not to think about too much. The first time I caught them smoking I’d just shook my head and kept my mouth shut. After the shit he’d endured he deserved some relaxation I guess. At least he wasn’t as bad as Daniel, not yet at least.
I went out back to my crew because I knew they’d probably be of more help than the cops who I don’t trust for shit, not with my wife’s life. The boys were hard at work trying to knock shit out before the holidays. There were ten new shiny bikes lined off against the wall waiting for delivery. Since the business had grown so much in such a short period of time I’d had to hire some more help, which in my book was a good thing. Five more men had money in their pockets to take care of their families, it’s all good.
“You guys find out anything about that chick from last night yet?”
“Nope no word on the street about anyone missing and we checked the whole area.”
“I made some calls to the next town over and there’s nothing there either. You guys been checking the news? If she’s missing it might be broadcasted.” Jared was with
me on this I’d told him my suspicions about the whole thing and he wasn’t any more jazzed about the situation than I was.
“Nah I didn’t think of that.” Maybe because I didn’t think for one second that this chick was gonna end up on the six o’clock news.
“We’ll keep our ears and eyes open boss, it’s the holidays somebody’s bound to come forward looking for their missing family member soon.” Zack chimed in next, I had damn near the whole team looking into this. It might be overkill but that’s the way we did things, if one was involved we were all involved.
“Thanks guys.”
“So what are you thinking?” Jared finished shining the chrome on the last bike we’d just finished as the rest of the guys gathered around admiring our handy work.
“I don’t know yet but I do know I don’t want my wife around this shit. Her hardheaded ass gets into more shit than a little bit but now we have Caitlin to think about and there’s no fucking way…fuck hang on a minute.”
I pulled my phone and called her, I’d told her not to leave the house but I hadn’t told her not to let anyone in.
“Kat, do not let anyone in the house unless it’s family.” She knew family meant the crew and their women as well so I didn’t need to explain farther.
“Who would I let in the house Colton?”
“Fuck if I know, you expecting any packages or shit like that?”
“Not today no, I think in two days they said.”
“What are my beautiful girls doing? I think I’m coming home early for lunch the guys have shit pretty much under control here and your boy Cy took care of the books already.”
“We’re good Colt, Caitlin keeps destroying the gift wrap, and I think she’s teething because she’s getting cranky and she has a bit of a fever.”
“What the fuck?” I waved at the guys as I walked out of the shop and back to my office to get my keys.
