Big Bad Wolf: A Bad Boy Next Door Second Chance Romance

And she ‘ Emmy's friend.
“I'm Claire. Your assistant told us to meet you here. Are we in the right place?”
“Of course we are!” Behind Claire is Tess, the girl who looks like she's never heard the words trying too hard. “Hey Ace, thanks for the invite. That was totes nice of you.”
I look behind them, hoping to see Emmy. She is nowhere to be found.
“Of course,” I say, keeping it cool. “Glad you could come.” Not asking what I really want. I invited them here to keep the game of cat and mouse going with Emmy. I don't think my ego can handle her running without first giving me a chance to catch her.
Landon begins pouring the girls drinks, and my jaw clenches. My heart pounds. I want to ask. I know I can't.
Thankfully, Tess is my motherfucking savior.
“So, Emmy's on her way.” Tess's words are as bubbly as the champagne she is drinking. “She just got a voicemail from the doctor at the hospital where her sister is. She knew it would be too loud in here. She'll meet us in a sec.”
“Her sister is in the hospital?” I ask, leaning forward.
“Well, yeah. I mean, that's the only reason she's here in Vegas,” Claire says in a non-nonsense way.
“Is her sister alright?” Landon asks, finding a seat next to Tess. I can already tell he'll be into her. She’s moldable, the exact sort of woman he prefers.
“Not really,” Claire says. “Her sister is in a coma. I mean, all you'd need to do is ask her three questions about herself and you'd know that.”
Rubbing my jaw with the back of my hand, I realize I've only focused on one thing when it came to Emmy: her perfect pussy.
“Oh, there she is,” Tess says pointing through the crowd.
Landon, McQueen, and I all turn to look, and so do half of the men in the club.
Emmy would be a knockout in anything. But in this skintight, wine-colored dress she is everything. She's been poured into that fabric, and I want to drink her up as she comes toward me.
“Fuck, your girl is looking fly,” McQueen says.
Claire gives me a hard look, her eyes flicking back to Emmy. She's trying to piece things together, and I can tell that Emmy has kept her cards close. I fucking love that about her. I don't need some woman who can't keep things behind closed doors.
As Emmy walks up to me, giving me a cool once-over, it's clear she didn't tell her friends much of anything.
“Emmy.” I stand so I can stop her from sitting down. I don't want to talk to her here with everyone listening and watching.
I want her in ways no one else can see.
“Everything okay?” Landon asks, his English accent making him sound more sincere than I would sound if I posed the same question.
“It's fine.” Emmy shakes her head, giving Claire and Tess hard looks of annoyance. I love that Emmy has worn minimal make-up, her hair is loose and hanging around her shoulders. I smile, noticing the tips are still wet, as if she literally stepped out of a shower and came out tonight.
The other women here are nothing like her. Everything about them is forced. Emmy isn't trying to make an impression. She’s just herself. And that is more than enough.
“Really?” Claire asks. “Is everything honestly okay?”
“Yeah,” Emmy says, brushing her off, accepting the flute of champagne McQueen hands her. The women on our periphery look Emmy up and down, see her as competition.
She isn't their competition. This woman has already fucking won.
Now if I could just make that clear to her.
“The voicemail from the doctor was from hours ago, when we were at dinner. I just hadn't checked my phone.”
Claire and Tess give her sympathetic nods and drop it. In those simple looks, though, it is clear these girls are important to Emmy. She trusts them.
I won't let my boys hurt them.
On my phone I send a quick text to McQueen, Landon and Jack.
Me: Don't fuck with Emmy's girls. I mean it. Okay?
I watch as McQueen and Landon look down at their phones, type quick responses.
McQueen: Got it, boss-man.
Landon: We’ll behave.
Knowing that’s dealt with, I take Emmy by the hand, and pull her up. The music is loud, the drinks are being poured, and I'm ready to fucking put my hands all over this woman.
And never let her go.
EMMY
So in the past twenty-four hours I've seen Ace act like a confident prick in the hallway, a reckless lover in the bedroom, and a dominating ass in the elevator.
And now, on the dance floor, I see him as a hungry, desperate man. A man who wants something that he's scared he won't get.
Scared he won't get me.
I swear those fucking eyes are going to be my demise.
And in this moment, with hundreds of people around us, with music vibrating off the walls, with his arms snaking around my waist, I want him to wreck me.
I want to be ruined.
It's so loud on the dance floor I can't hear myself think, can't hear his whispered words. Can't remember why resisting him will make me happy.
I know that earlier I walked away because I didn't want to be used, didn't want to be Ace's plaything. But right now he isn't in control. He isn't in the power seat.
I am.
I know that I'm what and who he wants. As I run my hands through his hair, press my lips against his ear, breathing in and out, I know that right now he isn't in charge the way he wanted to be in the elevator.
Right now I'm driving this racecar and I want to take it around the track at 150 mph. I want to be chaos and I want to crash.
The voicemail from the doctor said that if Janie doesn't wake within the week they’re going to take her off life support.
I don't want to think. I don't want to talk.
I just want to escape.
My hands find their way to Ace's waist, slide down the front of his pants, where his throbbing rod is waiting for me.
People are everywhere. We've moved to the center of the dance pit where everyone moves cheek to cheek, asses grinding against the hard cocks behind them. Men and women have their mouths on one another, have their hands rubbing against glistening skin, and smoldering eyes greedily watching the heat of the night.
It is a fucking orgy waiting to happen.
But I don't want an orgy. I want Ace.
I want him now.
His eyes close, the music sinking into our skin, lights flashing around us, confetti falling from the ceiling as the DJ—Jack—spins the club into a frenzy.
My hands press against the hardness in his pants but it's not enough. I want more. I want everything.
“Ace, I need you. Now.” In his ear I whisper words that are truer than he knows. Somehow he hears me and silently takes my hand, pulls me through the crowd.
He doesn't take me back to his table.
Instead, he takes me away.
We don't talk. What words would I use?
I'm using you so I don't feel the fear clawing its way at my heart?
I'm using you so I can pretend my past isn't tumbling to the present?
I'm using you because I don't want to be alone?
I can't say those things.
So I say nothing at all.
He leads me to a dark room down a hallway, past the restrooms and past the bar kitchen and past the noise.
He leads me to a closet, switches on a dim light, and I see that the room is filled with shelves of liquor. He finds a bottle of whiskey, unscrews the cap. Takes a long pull that I know must burn his throat as he swallows.
I take the bottle, drink. I want to be set on fire.
I want to be consumed by a blaze.
His eyes are on me and I lock mine on him. The electricity of the club bounces through the walls.
But the electricity of what I feel with Ace right now is deeper, longer. More. What I feel right now is a mixture of heartbreak from the phone call and desire for what he is going to do to me.
What I feel right now is alive.
And that is so much better than turning to ash.
“Fuck me, Ace.”
“Are you okay?” he asks, his eyes searing into mine. He can see my pain, read my hurt. It is good of him to ask.
But I don't want to answer because I don't want to lie. Not to him.
“Just do it, do me. Please.”
I beg him. And I am not ashamed.
I beg him. And I am not afraid.
I beg him. And he answers.
ACE
Emmy is broken, but she wants me to rip her open. I don't know what’s behind those gorgeous blue eyes, but I know enough to not ask any more questions.
She isn't looking for a friend, a lover. She's looking to run.
I have no problem driving her get-away car.
I pull up her dress so it wraps around her waist. Her pussy is bare and a smile crosses my mouth for the first time all day.
It’s impossible not to feel like a million bucks as I take in the fact that no panties cover that perfect mound of hers. The door to the stockroom is closed, and I push her against it, crash my mouth on hers. The heat grows, and so does my cock.
She unbuckles my pants and they fall to the floor. My cock escapes my boxers as she slinks her hand around my hardness. She moans at the sight of it, the feel of it, the same way she did last night. I love knowing that one look at it gets her wet.
“You make me so hot,” she says as my fingers find her opening. I lift her leg up, and my other hand begins to softly finger her folds. She wasn't lying about getting hot and bothered—she's already dripping.
I press two fingers in her, fucking her faster as I slide them in and out. She clings to my neck as I touch her. The feel of her heat makes me so hard, makes me want to fuck her until she can’t see straight.
My thumb finds her round nub and her clit throbs as I press against it, and as I add pressure her breath catches. She arches her back in pleasure.
“Ohmigod,” she groans against me. I press harder; add a third finger, and that causes her to grip my arm. Her pussy is so nice and tight, and I just love how much she grinds against my hand, clearly loving every second that I am inside her.
But I need more.
Pulling my hand from her wetness, I rip down the top half of her dress so her tits fall out, and they are so fucking perfect, her nipples hard and her areolas so round and aroused.
I devour those beautiful breasts with my mouth. I kiss her milky skin as she heaves herself closer to me, as if she doesn’t want any space between us.
My hands massage her globes, I lick her nipples, suckle her perfect skin. I pull her higher against the door. She wraps her legs around me, my cock right under her. I pull on a condom and then ease her onto my massive thickness.
Her eyes are wide open, meeting mine in apprehension. I can tell she wonders how this will fit, even though last night she learned that she can manage her way over my massive cock.
She gasps as I fill her. And I fill her good. I fill her up as I bounce her fucking perfect pussy against my dick. I’m not taking this slow.
This woman asked me to do her, and I don’t do anyone halfway. Especially not Emmy Rose. I’ll do Emmy Rose exactly as she wants.
Her perfect tits hit one another as I thrust harder and harder and harder, my balls slapping against her skin, and I can tell she loves it as she moans in pleasure, as my hands slap her round ass, holding onto her as I take her against the door.
Her tits are fucking bouncing in my face and I want to lick them, come all over them. I want her to titty-fuck me, and I want to spill my seed on her breasts and I want to come again and again and again.
So we do.
“Fuck me, Ace. Ohmigod, fuck me hard.”
I knew she would want more once she had me.
Women always do.
I fuck her against the wall just like I said I would. I pull out before I come, knowing she wants the feel of my warm seed on her tits.
She gets down onto her knees so my cock is at her breasts, and I pull off the condom. She tugs at my hardness, my come spurting all over her chest as she moans in ecstasy.
I know she wants a taste of me, a fucking mouthful, because her head meets my tip, and she licks me as I come again. She pushes my cock in her mouth and swallows as I come.
Looking down at her is a fucking miracle, her mouth filled with me as I thrust deeper in her. And she likes it. I watch as one of her hands slides between her legs. She rubs herself good as I make love to her mouth.
I don’t know what’s better, her tight pussy or her warm mouth or watching her touch herself. It’s a fucking dream.
And when I finish, I know she wants more. She stands, her legs still parted, her juice all over her hand. She presses a wet finger to my mouth and I suck what’s on it off. She tastes so sweet and so good, like a fucking honey pot.
I flip her pretty little self around, ready to pound her from the back, knowing women like it this way, their pussies loving the way my massive rod hits their g-spot when I thrust into them.
I know Emmy is no different—in fact she is gonna like it more than anyone before her, because this girl is wild in a way I know comes from depriving oneself for far too long. No one is getting deprived tonight. Tonight, everyone goes home fucked and full.
One look at her round ass, and I feel my cock grow again.
I roll on another condom and tug her legs farther apart, her back arched and her ass the only thing I see.
I could take in this view all fucking day, it's so perfect. I push myself into her pussy as her hands and elbows lean against the door for support.
My hands cup her breasts as I thrust into her over and over again. I ram myself into her nice and hard and I know she likes it. She fucking loves it.
“Yes, yes, yes, Ace,” Emmy screams, asking for me. So I give it to her. “Ohhh yeah, fuck me Ace. Don't stop. Ever.”
And then she loses her words, loses her breath. Because as she comes, with me pounding her gorgeous body from behind, her entire being crashes, then resurfaces, as the orgasm passes.
I pull out as I begin to come, tear off the condom so I can come on her perfect ass. I came in her mouth for her—I’m coming all over her ass for me.
I’m staking my claim on Emmy Rose and she needs to remember.
I shoot my seed onto her flesh, liking the way I’m making my mark.
She won't fucking forget me now.

He takes a paper towel, wipes my ass clean. I don't mind having his come on me, but the fact that he tries to clean me up feels sincere.
He may be a womanizer, a player, but at least he didn't treat me like a piece of meat any more than I just treated him.
“That was amazing.” I catch my breath, pulling down the skintight dress and attempting to adjust myself in the top half of the designer gown.
“Amazing? Anything else? Because I hate to break it to you baby, but amazing is pretty standard.”
Ace pulls up his boxers, his slacks. His chest is bare and the tattoo on his collarbone, the bone yard remnants, beg me to come closer. To ask questions. But I don't. Ace can't handle them, probably never has.
“Don't be an ass,” I say, my chest heaving as I try to regain control of myself. It feels impossible. I'm exposed.
Maybe I shouldn't have let him fuck me when I was upset. When I was broken.
But Lord knows if I only fucked when I was put together, I'd never get off.
“Do you always use guys like this?” Ace cocks an eyebrow at me.
“And here I thought I was getting fucked by a man.” I smirk, wanting to tease. Knowing that when I do, all traces of my vulnerability are tucked away.
Ace shakes his head, rubs his hand across his neck.
“You are fucking unbelievable, Emmy Rose. You know that?”
“Shush,” I tell him, pressing my finger to his lips. I don't want to go there with a guy like Ace. He isn't saf
e. He’s dangerous.
I need secure. Or better yet, I don't need anyone. I've never needed anyone before.
“I'm taking you out tomorrow night,” he tells me, completely catching me off guard.
“I work tomorrow.”
“So? I own this fucking place.”
I shake my head, not wanting to admit how much I like it when he speaks to me that way. He isn't asking to take me out—he’s telling me.
I wish I were able to give in to that sort of authority. I wish I was the kind of girl in a position to get swept up—but I’m not. I’m the sort of girl with a sister in the hospital, who needs to be responsible because there’s no one else here to pick up the pieces.
If I let Ace sweep me away, I'll never land on my two feet.
I worked my ass off to put myself through college, and I’m working my ass off now to keep my sister alive, so I don't think it’s cute when he tells me I an brush off work. I can't brush off anything.
“Why didn't you tell me you were Ace Royalle last night?” I asked, taking me turn at keeping him on his toes.
“I told you I was the Boss.” Ace runs his hands over my shoulders, taunting me with his touch.
“You lied to me.” My words are hushed, and I don't know why I am even still in this back room. I came here to fuck him, and I did, and now I should go. Now I should walk away and never look back.
“Would it have changed anything if you'd known?” he asks, taking hold of my chin with his hands. His thumbs stroke my cheeks and I feel my face lean into his hold. “Does it change anything now?”
“No,” I whisper. “I don't care who you are. I'm not going out with you regardless.”
Now I am the liar. I blink and then look away, not trusting myself to look in his deep green eyes.
“Why not?”
I will myself to look up. Biting my lip, I exhale, then say the opposite of what I mean, “Because you’re everything I don't want.”
“That's where you're wrong Emmy. I think I’m exactly what you want, and you know it. That's why you ran earlier—you're scared.”
“Don't talk like you know me.”
But why does it feel like he does?
