Redeeming Ace's Heart

by M. T. Ossler

  She must be able to read my mind.

  “Ms. Jules and I have had our issues, but we’ve moved forward. Beast, Ace, and Blaze are the happiest they been since coming here with Gator after their time in the military. I’ve known Ryder since I came here six years ago, and he was always nice to us girls. There was always something holding him back from being his true self. Maybe it was because of the guys I don’t know, so seeing him these last few months with Cesare, I mean Taz, is heartwarming. True love is a rare gift not everyone gets to experience,” Maggie finishes sadly and heads over to the back corner of the room with Jan in tow.

  I know how much she cared for my man and he never reciprocated those feelings. I’m sure it’s hard for her to see all the love around her and know you can’t have the one you desire. I wish she’ll make peace with it all one day and possibly find her own unicorn.

  “What’s holding you back with Blaze?” Gigi asks and Bella stares at her sister. She hands us the bottles to feed the babies.

  “Gigi!” she snaps at her and the guys by the door stare over at us wondering what’s going on.

  “It’s ok Bella,” Brook says and then turns to Gigi.

  “In all honesty, I’m scared shitless for many reasons,” Brook says and gets up from the couch to pace in front of us.

  “Scared about what? He loves you, isn’t that enough?” Gigi prompts her to get to the bottom of this situation. I’ve wondered myself. Brook and I have talked a little this past week that she’s been with us, I try not to pry at the things I see. It’s hard, really hard when I see the pain in his eyes when she pushes him away.

  “I don’t know if love is enough. I don’t even know what love is. The only kind of love I’ve been exposed to is my father’s. Dad is the only man to ever love me and me love him, other than that I’m at a loss.

  “The men in my world were nice and sweet until they got what they wanted, then the devil came out. They didn’t have a code when it came to women. They didn’t even respect us.

  “I want to trust Jaxson and let him in more than you will ever know. I want to love him and be loved by him. But... But what if he hurts me? What if he hurts my daughter?” She holds her head up and I’m about to speak on his behalf, to defend him, cause that’s not the type of man he is, but I stop and let her finish.

  “I’m not just talking about physically. My gut tells me he would never lay a malice hand on me, but that doesn’t mean he still can’t hurt us. If I let him into my heart and he gets hurt or worse, dies. I don’t know if I’m strong enough to get over that. I don’t know if I can survive losing him when I just got him.” I see the tears she’s holding back in her eyes and feel her words in my heart. Her breathing becomes hitched. Sam gets up and guides her back to the couch to sit.

  She loves him, but fear is consuming her. She needs to work through that shit with him.

  Before I speaking to her, I notice Dominic is finished with his bottle. Bella takes it from me and I place him on my shoulder to burp him.

  “Brook, can I give you a little word of advice.” She nods as Sam holds her in her arms.

  “Let him in. I know it’s hard to do, but let him know how you feel. I pushed Hunter away in the beginning and almost lost him. It’s not worth losing all that time to fear. He’s a good man and will do anything for you. You, pushing him away is hurting him cause he doesn’t know why. Talk to him and tell him everything, he’ll understand.”

  “She’s right, talk to him and soon,” Gigi says. Dominic let’s out a loud burp and we all laugh. I take him back in my arms, cradling him to my chest.

  “You don’t want to have regrets, trust me. I lost a decade with my love that we can’t get back because of pride and fear. It’s not worth it believe me,” Bella says and then we hear the door beep and open.

  The guys come rushing into the room straight to us, looking tired and dirty. Hunter kneels before me and Blaze next to us in front of Brook. He takes Brook from Sam’s arms as they take in our appearance, the dry tears on our faces and doesn’t like it one iota.

  Gio has Bella in his arms and Gigi by his side. He looks over at us with the same expression as Hunter.

  “Do I even want to know what’s been going on in here?” Hunter grunts as Aunt Cindy comes over to take a sleeping Dominic from my arms. Hunter takes me in his arms, I bury my face under his kutte, inhaling his scent and finally relax.

  “Girls stuff,” Bella says sassily and is about to ask what happened when Gio cuts her off.

  “You girls need to get your things together. We need to head out soon,” Gio says and my head pops up. I gaze into Hunters eyes.

  “We’re still going on our honeymoon? What about the Clubhouse?” I shout out needing some answers if not all of them.

  “The Clubhouse is gonna be out of commission for a while,” Gator says with Sam in his arms and then continues.

  “I need all the women to gather your things and keep a prospect with you. The guys and I will take the twins into Beast’s cave. We need to have a quick Church before heading out. I had Shadow contact Xavier to book us a few more rooms. Maddox has also opened his Club up to us. Maggie, Jan you will follow Maddox and his guys and stay there. No one is allowed on the Compound for the next week. Make your arrangements, we leave in an hour.

  “Now, get your asses in gear,” Gator orders and Hunter helps me up.

  “Take prospect Gears with you and Brookie. I packed the cage this mornin’, but if you need anything else go grab it and meet back here,” Hunter says and kisses me on the lips. He holds me close and whispers in my ear. “I love you, kitten. I’m sorry about our big day.”

  “Shit happens. I love you too. Did any of the guys get hurt or...?” I can’t say the word. These guys are my family and I don’t want to lose them.

  “Everyone is fine. Nothin’, we can’t handle. Now, get your ass movin’.” Hunter releases me and smacks my tushie. I yelp and grab Brook’s hand to come with me. Hunter orders Gears to follow us next door and he does.

  Outside the house, you can smell the fire as the fire trucks finish up. The backyard looks like something out of a war zone. Tables and chairs in disarray. Food and our cake on the ground. Just seeing how things went to shit so fast has me upset again. I see Cain and Patriot, from Maddox’s Club, start to clean up with a couple other guys. I’m not sure of their names. I turn away and run into my house.

  I pack another small bag and head downstairs, find Brook and Bash and then head back next door to wait.

  Bella is just coming down the stairs when we make it back over. Bash takes our bags and keys to bring them out to our SUV’s.

  Since the guys have the boys, we head to the kitchen with Sam. Bella hands Brook and me a bottle of water and pours Sam and her a shot of whiskey.

  “You girls have to have faith in our men. They will protect us,” Sam says and sighs loudly.

  “I know I have no right to say this to y’all. I’m not officially an ol’ lady, my choosing not Colt’s, sorry Gator. But, I’ve been around this Club a long time, I know these men and what they are capable of doing for the ones they love. And if I had to guess, today’s events were courtesy of the Mexican Cartel. The guys know this Clubhouse like the back of their hands and those assholes had no right coming to our turf and declaring war. The Dragons will not stand for this shit, and will keep us safe, don’t you worry about that.” Sam sounds so confident I want to believe her, but a part of me is afraid they will get to me. That those assholes will take me away from Hunter, for good.

  I feel like Brook in this matter, fearing the bad men will come for us. If I can just hide my feelings and emotions a little bit better, it will be less for Hunter to worry about.

  Before any of us can answer her, the guys come in to find us and tell us it’s time to leave. They must have taken a few minutes to themselves, because they all have new clothes on and clean kuttes. They don’t look as dirty as earlier.

  Our entourage heads out front. Val, Lorenzo, Romeo, Bash, Shadow,
Throttle, Hawk, Ces, and Ryder mount their bikes. Gator and Dusty, mount theirs with Sam and Gigi on the back. Aunt Cindy is in Gio and Bella’s SUV. Blaze is in his with Brook and Hunter helps me into ours.

  Blaze ended up buying an SUV for Brook instead of Hunter. He said, since Brook is his it was his responsibility, not Hunters. My man wasn’t happy about it, but he knew Blaze was right, so he backed down.

  It’s time to head out and start our honeymoon. Hopefully, we can put all this shit behind us and have a good time. We are staying at a resort on the beach for the next five days or so and I’m looking forward to enjoying some time away. Being able to spend all this time with Hunter before the baby comes is all I’ve dreamt about since Shadow offered this to us.

  Chapter 29

  Ace

  It’s been a couple of days since the attack on our Clubhouse. We’ve been at Shadow’s friend Xavier’s resort here on the beach and Jules and I haven’t left our room since we arrived. I’ve been in contact with Gator, Beast, and Blaze, though. Gator and Beast got in touch with Alejandro and the asshole said he had nothin’ to do with the attack on our Clubhouse. A blatant lie since we identified his third Hector and so did Sherriff Johns. Gator told him to stay far away from our territory and ports. We took this shit as a declaration of war from the bastard. Gator asked all the Clubs in Florida, Skully in Staten Island and all our allies to be on the lookout for the Mexicans. They are now our enemies, as are Satan’s Halo MC. All chapters will be with us at a moment’s notice to protect my girls. They have upped the ante on us now that they can’t get to Ces. Now, they want Sam, Brookie, and Bella. Not gonna happen. My brothers and I will never allow them to get close to any of our girls.

  Blaze is staying in a room with my sister. Shadow and Throttle are in the three-bedroom villa with them too. They are all keeping a close eye on her for me. Blaze texts me updates regularly and so do the guys. My sister has apparently been clinging to Blaze. She won’t be out of his sight for a minute. The events must have rattled her or whatever we walked in on the other day in the safe room shook her up. Don’t know and I’m not sure I want to. I trust my brothers to make sure she’s safe and that gives me some comfort. I wish she were with me, but Jules and I need some alone time after everything and especially before the baby comes.

  Beast has also been in contact with me. He’s holding down the fort for me, stepping in as acting VP to give me this time with Jules. He said he owed me and I was not about to argue with him. I asked about Bella, Shorty, and the boys. He said they are all doing good and having some fun. I’m glad. My brothers deserve this time, cause when this peaceful time is up, we have a war to fight, again.

  My phone buzzes on the nightstand next to the bed and I grab it. Jules is asleep in my arms, with her ass pressed against my cock after a long draining mornin’ of sex. Yea, I had a lot of naked acrobatics in bed, the shower, bathroom counter, and mini bar. I love how flexible Jules is from doin’ all that yoga shit. My girl’s so horny and up for all new things in bed. I shopped and secretly packed a bag especially for this weekend. Being tied up, blindfolded and playing with toys gets my girl all hot and bothered. Just talkin’ about the things I want to do to her has my engine ready to rev.

  Fuck, now I’m hard again thinking about tying her to the bed, blindfolding her, and with the vibrating butt plug like we did last night. We tried using an ice cube on the sensitive parts of her body. She liked it, I’m sure our brothers heard her cum not just next door, but down the hall. She came so hard, squirting into my mouth and all over the bed. Her body convulsed, moving all around the bed. I was afraid we may have hurt the baby. Once her breath came back to normal and her body relaxed she told me she was great, better than great. Definitely doing that again, soon.

  I revert my thoughts back to my buzzing phone and check my text.

  Shadow: Dinner tonight, Delfino’s 7. Xavier closed the restaurant for all of us. Him and Jennie, his GF, will be there.

  Damn, I’m still not ready to wear clothes and leave this room. But, Xavier did me and our Club a solid by allowing us to crash at his resort, so it’s only right. I need to thank him in person for all he and Jennie have done for us. Plus, I do need to see my sister for myself, to know how she’s handling things.

  Me: See you later.

  Checking the time I see it’s 11:55 and our lunch should be arriving in about an hour. Time for some dessert and fun with my girl. I slide away from her back, gently moving her to her back, flat on the bed and hover over her.

  Starting at her neck, I kiss down, engulfing her right nipple in my mouth and suckling hard with a little nip. She moans in her sleep, as I trace my tongue in circles around her nipple then drag it to the left and do the same. Her moans and purrs are becoming louder in the room, mixing with the music we’ve had playing. Adele’s All I Ask is playing in the background from her Spotify playlist on her phone.

  She stirs a little under me and when I look up her eyes are still closed. So I move down her body, kissing over her belly and down to her glistening pussy. She’s wet, dripping and she’s asleep. I kiss down her thighs and up the middle. Now, my kitten’s awake with wide eyes. I make my way to her pussy and place a kiss. She groans and the look of impatience in her eyes is all I need to move forward. Breaching her seam with my tongue, dragging it up and down slowly. She moans and purrs above me loud as her hand goes to my head.

  “Hands up on the headboard, kitten,” I order her. She grunts and does as I command her. And as a reward for her listening without complaint, I suck her little pearl into my mouth. My tongue goes wild altering in every direction.

  I keep one hand on her breast, kneading her nipples and with the other, I insert two fingers inside her. I work a rhythm with my tongue and my fingers and before long she’s cumming on my face.

  I work her through her orgasm with my tongue. Once she calms her breathing, I travel my way up her body ready to snuggle inside her warmth.

  She presses her hand to my chest, holding me up and away from her.

  “Blue,” she says with mischief in her tone.

  “Yea, kitten. What’s the meaning of this?” I ask, looking down at her hand. She never stops me unless she wants something.

  “I want my tasty treat, now!” she demands, and I laugh. She wants my cock. So, the next question is how bad she wants to be.

  “How pray tell did you want him?” I smirk at her and wait for her answer.

  “I want to suck on my lollipop,” she says grinning with a glint in her eyes. Now, all I can see is her lips wrapped around my cock. I’m rock fuckin’ hard and need her warmth, any warmth will suffice.

  “Get on the floor, kitten.” I get up from her and stand by the bed to help her. Once she’s up, I sit on the edge of the bed and she kneels down in front of me. Her hands glide up and down my thighs, then settle on my cock. I twitch from her touch as she grips me tight in her grasp and then strokes me. The whole time her eyes never leave mine.

  Stroking me a few times before her tongue makes contact with my head. I hiss and my breathing hitches. She smirks up at me while her tongue plays around my slit, then she engulfs me, taking me to the back of her throat. Humming, as she starts bobbing up and down on my steel pole.

  She makes love to my cock with her mouth, her moans, and purrs getting to me. Her eyes lustful and wanting more. I want more too, I don’t want to cum in her mouth unless she really wants it.

  The calls are always hers, my girl is always in control of the bedroom show. I follow her lead. That was the biggest thing to get her to understand about playing dominant and submissive. Once she understood the submissive is in control, she relinquished control of her body to me and never looked back. Her body responds to my touch and my words and I give her the best orgasms.

  “Kitten, stop!” She moans around my cock and comes up, lifting off with a popping sound.

  “I’m gonna give you two choices here, babe. One: you ride my face and I cum in your mouth before I claim your pussy. Two: you get o
n all fours and I fuck you long and hard.”

  “One.” She breathes heavily. That sure does sound good to me, either way, I’m in one of her warm holes enjoying the pleasure she has to show me.

  I lay back in the center of the bed. She climbs on the bed, on top of me, centering her pussy over my salivating mouth, and her mouth over my dick. I zero right in on her clit in unison with her as she takes my hard rod in her mouth to the back of her throat. No playing, just racing to the finish line.

  She bounces her head up and down. One of her hands holding her up and the other massages my balls as she hums around me.

  I hungrily eat her pussy, enjoying her taste while my hands grab hold of her breast. Kneading her nipples, nibbling her clit and in no time she’s cumming on my face. The second my tongue feels her cunt spasms, I blow, shooting my seed down her throat. She gulps me down a few times and then pulls off me to take a deep breath.

  Falling on her back at my side, I gather her in my arms till our erratic breathing returns to normal. The only sounds in the room are our breathing and the music playing in the background. The song changes to a soft slow beat song from Jules’s playlist. Now, Young and Beautiful by Lana Del Rey fills our ears and I turn to my side to take in the breathtaking beauty in my arms. Her hair is fanned out under her and messy. Her stunning, naked body, pregnancy belly and all laying with her chest heaving up and down pushing up her magnificent breast, perky nipples begging for my touch.

  “Will you?” she asks in a soft tone startling me away from her sexy body.

  Not sure what she’s asking me, I say, “Will I what, kitten?” I was so distracted by her body I must have missed somethin’ big.

  She peaks her eyes open, looking into mine. Hers are still glazed over from her orgasm. Giving me her pouty lip she says, “Will you still love me when I’m not young and beautiful anymore?” I laugh, is she seriously asking me this? She is, and she needs the reassurance. I can see it all too clear in her eyes. She’s afraid I won’t see her as beautiful for the rest of our lives. I need to make her see the light, her light.
