Lust? Yearning? I wasn't sure but I would take it all.
“Yes,” he replied, kissing me gently one more time, “I'll be there. I mean, if you can cook, that is.”
I laughed out loud.
“You don't have any idea what you're in for, mister. I can cook almost as good as I can ride.”
“Oh, yeah?” he asked, his smile widening.
“Yeah.” I lifted my chin defiantly. “Don't be late.”
Nodding his head, he laughed as he began walking away from me, Pete following close behind.
“You got it, cowgirl. I won't be late.”
“Good. See you tomorrow.”
I tried not to skip and do cartwheels as I walked across the street to my apartment. There was that damned teenaged giddiness taking hold of me again. I had a date with Crow. And I was tickled about it.
CHAPTER NINE
Steak. Potatoes. Beer. I was going to keep the meal simple and meaty. Just like Crow.
I spent the day shopping for everything I would need, and later found myself at the mall shopping for new lingerie. Crow had shredded my best pair of panties the other night, and I couldn't escape the desire to turn him on like that again. He was amazing, charming and dangerously handsome and I couldn't help but wishing I was meeting him under different circumstances. The MC life was in my blood, and it wasn't surprising to me that I was completely enthralled with a man like Crow. He was strong, confident and quiet. Not to mention the way he looked when he was on top of me, thrusting his amazing cock deep inside of me. I was certain the night would end up with him in my bed again, and as excited as I was to be able to cook for him, I was much more aroused by the anticipation of what would come later.
I returned to my apartment around five in the afternoon, everything I needed tucked into my backpack, including a few pairs of new, lacy underwear and an enticing black negligee that I was secretly hoping Crow would rip from my body later. I had never had anything ripped off of me before, but I had absolutely adored the feeling of that last night. There was something totally savage and primal about it, that I couldn't stop thinking about it. The pull against your skin just before the cloth gave way. The richly satisfying sound of the cloth shredding. My pussy throbbed just imagining it.
As I was parking my bike, Pete rounded the corner, walking away from the door of my apartment. I was instantly on edge - there was something I just didn't like about like this guy, even without the past I shared with him.
He saw me and walked right over to me.
“Hey, Krys. I came over to let you know that Crow is going to be a few minutes late tonight.” he said, as he waited for me to turn off my bike and take off my helmet.
“Oh. Is that so?”
“Yep. Club shit.”
“Okay,” I replied, nodding and attempting to walk around him. He stopped me in my tracks.
“You sure we don't know each other?” His face was so close to mine, I could smell his rancid breath.
“I'm sure,” I said curtly.
We stared each other down, and I was determined not to let him see through my ruse. I looked squarely into his eyes, challenging him silently.
“Okay,” he replied. “If you say so. But I could swear I know you. Your eyes...there's something about your eyes...” His voice trailed off and he began walking across the street.
Without replying, I walked away and climbed the stairs to my apartment.
My skin burned, feeling his eyes peering into me from behind.
Once I made it to my apartment, I took a deep breath and did my best to forget about Pete. There was something really evil about that guy, but tonight I was going to forget him. I wasn't going to let him ruin my one night with Crow. Things were moving fast, and I didn't know how much longer I was going to get with him. I was determined to enjoy every inch of him while I had him.
As much as I wanted to deny it, I knew I had to face reality and admit it to myself - there was no way Crow and I could ever end up together. Even if the case worked out somehow, he would never be able to forgive me for lying to him. He had opened up to me, and I knew he felt uneasy about that. If he knew I was a cop, he would feel so betrayed. I had come to the sad fact that there probably wasn't any way this would ever work out in our favor, and that fact alone had me wanting to make tonight as special as it could be. At least we would have the few memories together before everything goes to hell in the next day or two when Crow finds out who I really am.
I wasn't so sure that Pete was going to be the one to figure it out, but at the end of the case, no matter how it turned out, Crow would find out who I am. And that will be the end of it. Because how could he ever trust me again? I felt humbled that he had chosen me to open up to, to find some escape from the life with, if only for a moment or two. He seemed genuinely relaxed, open and...happy. Yes, he seemed happy when he was with me.
I suppose that only made it worse, though.
Pushing all the negative thoughts aside, I reminded myself of my promise to just be in the moment tonight, and take a few stolen hours to enjoy each other. He didn't need to know it was probably going to be the last time.
I spent the next few hours cooking and cleaning. Time got away from me, and I rushed to get the table set and change my clothes before Crow arrived. He wasn't late at all, as Pete had said he would be. I heard the deep roar of his bike, and when my doorbell rang, I took a look around to make sure everything was in it's place. I had set the table earlier, with salad and bread waiting for us, the steaks were warming on the grill, and I had a classic rock station playing in the background. Flames flickered in the windows from the few candles I had lit, and the lights were dimmed just enough so that when the sun set in about an hour, the light in the room would fade naturally.
Taking a deep breath, and adjusting the simple, scooped neck tank top over my hips, I opened the door with a smile.
Flowers. Slick-backed hair. And those punishing velvet blue eyes, framed by the feathery fringe of his dark lashes – all of which I quickly realized I was in no way prepared for.
And he still had his cut on, the black leather slung over his broad shoulders like a second skin.
I melted as he held the white daisies out to me, bowing his head and taking my hand and kissing it all at the same time. Speechless, I drank in the luscious feel of his lips burning my hand, and as he turned it over to kiss the inside of my palm as well, I sighed with delight.
“Come inside,” I whispered, pulling my hand away from his warm mouth reluctantly. “You're giving me goosebumps.”
The crinkle of his smiling eyes told me he was in a fairly good spirits, and I felt my shoulders relax in relief. I wasn't sure what his mood would be like, after the scene with Mr. C. But it appeared I had nothing to worry about. My plan to forget about everything and have a wonderful time might just be a possibility after all.
The deadbolt clicked loudly as I locked us in, and I turned around to offer Crow a beer.
Before I could utter a sound, he had pushed me back against the front door, his lips eagerly descending on mine. I kissed him back just as feverishly, throwing my free arm around him, and cradling the daisies in my other hand. I pulled him into me, meeting his passion with my own. Undulating against me, his hips ground into me and I felt him harden against my thigh as his mouth longingly devoured mine.
I moaned into his kiss, surprised by the immediate intensity, but completely welcoming of it. I had missed him, craved him, yearned for him the last few days. In spite of the intensity of everything going on around us, the chemistry between us was explosive and undeniable. Judging by the heat coming from his throbbing cock, he felt exactly the same way.
His lips trailed down my chin and he began nibbling at my neck as he pushed his body against me impatiently.
“I missed you...” he murmured, “the taste of you...” I sighed and buried my fingers in his soft, damp hair. The minty, soapy, leathery musk of him invaded my senses as my breasts swelled under his assault when his lips reached the edge of
my shirt.
“Crow,” I whispered, watching him nibble at my soft flesh, “let me put these flowers down.”
“Screw the flowers.” He ripped them from my hand and tossed them on the floor as his mouth captured mine again before beginning his trail down to my breasts once more. With both hands free, I wrapped my arms around his muscular frame and pulled him into me. His lips and teeth dug into my flesh, his hot tongue licking my hardened nipples as he pulled my heaving breasts from the top of my shirt and devoured them, roughly kneading my tender skin. His hands pulled my shirt off, my breasts spilling out into his warm hands.
He sank to his knees and began deftly unbuttoning my jeans. Awkwardly, I stepped out of my boots and he pulled my pants down over my thighs swiftly. After stepping out of them, I stood in front of him shaking with emotion and yearning, wearing nothing but my new pair of panties and complete bliss as I watched him look up at me, softly caressing my thighs with his rough fingertips, as his eyes raked across my exposed body.
“I made dinner...” I stumbled over my words, and as they escaped my mouth, they sounded as if they came from someone else.
Mesmerized, I gazed into his eyes, lost, alone and yet completely familiar and at home there. He smiled gently at my words, his eyes lighting up with desire.
“I want dessert first,” he whispered softly. His warm breath caressed my center, warming the transparent lace stretched across my moistening sex. His mouth engulfed me, his tongue working against the cloth, scraping across it with his teeth, capturing my throbbing clit through the lacy fabric and biting it gently and then harder, until I was crying out, my moans echoing through the hallway as I buried my fingers in his soft curls and pressed his mouth into me, my hips pushing against him, begging for more.
He rose suddenly and before I knew what was happening, he had lifted me over his shoulder and was carrying me past the kitchen, down the hallway and into the bedroom. When I landed on the bed, he was on top of me. Fully clothed, his cut rubbed roughly against my bare breasts and the promise of heavenly pleasure rubbed hard against my thigh.
His mouth smashed against mine as he kissed me deeply, roughly, deliciously. His breath quickened, and so did his pace. He stood up and began quickly removing his clothes.
He was a god in front of me - his thick, ropey muscles were covered in perfect, tan skin. Dark hair flowed down to his tight tattooed chest covered by coarse hair that trailed down to the most magnificent cock I had ever seen. I couldn't help but be spellbound every time I saw this man naked. He demanded undivided attention. And I was almost ready to give it to him.
“Wait.” I stopped him, as he started to come towards me, his hard cock at rapt attention between his legs. “Wait?” He looked at me, confused and curious.
“Your cut.” I said, trying not to crack a smile. “Put it back on.”
His laughter roared through the apartment, but after looking at me for a moment, he shook his head and retrieved it from the floor.
“Alright, alright...” he smiled down at me, descending on me with the tight black leather vest framing his perfectly sculpted abs, “the lady gets whatever she wants.”
His brought his lips to mine, but stopped short of meeting them. Playfully, he looked down at me, his charm melting every cell in my body.
“The lady gets what she wants AFTER I get dessert!” His lips brushed against mine lightly and he leaned back, gripping my panties with both hands, as my pussy quivered in anticipation. The cloth pressed against my hips hard before it ripped from my body, leaving a thin, red line on my ass.
My eyes fluttered and my head fell back at the first touch of his mouth. His tongue slid inside my lips and into my center, licking, tasting and fucking my welcoming sex. My legs widened and snaked around his shoulders as he moaned into me, ravishing my flesh with his hungry mouth. I pulled him into me as waves of pleasure poured over me. All thoughts fell from my mind, as I relaxed into his gorgeous assault and lost myself in blissful abandon.
His soft mouth worked against my tender clit, pushing me to the edge, and then pulling me back before I could find my release. He teased me, back and forth, harder and lighter and then faster and slower, over and over until I was thrashing on the bed before him, my naked body open and splayed out before him, begging him not to stop. His fingers slid into my slippery center, fucking into me harder and harder as his strong, full lips sucked on my engorged clit. I came against him in convulsing waves of blissful release, my voice crying out into the night as he held onto my hips, his strong fingers fucking into me until my hips softened against him.
He crawled up to me, kissing me gently as I lay below him, melting under his spell.
Quivering beneath him, I wrapped my legs around his waist and he entered me smoothly. Rocking into him, our bodies began moving together, urgently reaching for a shared pleasure, searching for that primal, savage connection that can only be found in such raw moments. Sliding into my clenching pussy, his cock swelled and his thrusts grew stronger and harder as I softened below him, submitting to his hungry need by opening to his sweet assault.
I looked up at him, his hard face turned soft and beautiful in the throes of his passion. Faster, harder, he fucked into me with skillful precision. The determination and strength he possessed only added to my need for this man. The raw masculinity that poured off of him made him the most irresistible thing I had ever come across. Tightening my legs around him and grabbing onto his leather, I held on for what seemed like hours as he continued burying his hard cock into me, fucking me in every direction and from every angle he wanted to. Moaning and pressing up into him, blissfully opening up to him, I begged him to fuck me harder and deeper. Slamming into me, he grew still and his engorged cock twitched inside of me.
The sun had set, and rising outside of my window, the light of the full moon spilled into my room, shadows dancing across Crow's cut and tattooed skin as the wet warmth of his passion poured into me. I sighed below him, my body melting into the bed, completely spent and blissful, the smell of leather, sweat and sensual musk filling the air.
CHAPTER TEN
The sound of the shower woke me up. It was still dark out, so we couldn't have slept more than an hour or so. I had never fallen asleep so peacefully in my life. Crow was solid and real. And he reminded me so much of my past. I felt so completely at home in his presence. I felt protected when he was around, and that was what was the oddest thing of it all. I didn't need protecting, I could protect myself very well. It was some vague sense of safety that was missing when I was alone, and when Crow was around, it wasn't missing anymore.
I heard the shower stopping, and smiled to myself at the thought of a very naked Crow standing wet and dripping in my bathroom. Stretching under the covers of my bed, I sighed, hoping he would let me lick the drops of water from his skin when he returned. I knew at some point we would have to get up and actually eat the dinner I had prepared, but none of that seemed important now that we were already in bed.
Softly and quietly, he returned to the bedroom. I felt his presence before I opened my eyes to drink his deadly sexiness. The glint of silver caught my eye and I tried to focus in the dark. Crow was standing at the side of the bed, deliciously naked, with his hair wet and dripping around his shoulders. My eyes blinked as I took in the medallion around his neck.
It was large, silver and very familiar. My police badge.
I jumped up off of the bed and our eyes locked. For the faintest second before his rage set in, his blue eyes flashed with pain. He looked at me questioningly, and as I stood there as naked as he was, I found myself unable to form any words at all.
My heart sank when I realized my fairy tale ending had come and gone.
My shoulders slumped in defeat, and I looked at him sadly.
“I'm so sorry.”
“You're sorry?!” He stormed over to me, and the anger in his eyes shook me to my core.
“You're a cop? Why are you fucking me and cooking me dinner, if you are a mother fu
cking cop? What the fuck is going on?”
“Crow, wait – just listen. I can help you.” What the hell was I talking about?
“I don't need your help! Cops don't help, they just fuck you over. And lie.” The look of disdain on his face was like a slap to mine. I started to come to my senses a little. How did he find my badge, anyway? I had it tucked away in a suitcase under my bed.
“And trick you into thinking they want other things too, apparently. If you're supposed to be undercover, you've done a really awful job. Sleeping with the suspect? Is that allowed? Are you going to put that in your report, Krys? Oh, wait, I bet Krys isn't even your name, is it? Stupid me. I can't believe I fell for your act.”
The words hurled into my face like a hail storm, and I took each blow like an arrow to the heart. He threw on his clothes quickly, as I stood there watching him helplessly.
“I'm so sorry. Please listen.” I begged, watching him put on his boots and slide his cut back over his shoulders.
“I didn't want to lie to you, Crow. I love -” I stopped abruptly, realizing I was just about to profess my love to a man who was looking at me like he could murder me at any second.
“You what?” His voice was eerily quiet as he leaned into me. “Did you say love? What a joke. This has all been a complete lie. I told you things I wouldn't say to anyone, and you made me believe you actually cared. Fuck you.” He looked deep into my eyes, his rage boiling off of him. “That's definitely not love.”
He threw the badge on my bed and stormed out of my bedroom. As I followed him down the hall, visions of him throwing me over his shoulder and carrying me to the bedroom flashed in my head, and my heart broke into pieces.
When he reached the door, he turned to me and pinned me against the wall.
“There's three reasons I'm not killing you. One, because I know my MC hasn't done anything illegal. I know you didn't find a fucking thing, whatever it was you were looking for. Next, because you are obviously really awful at your job and I feel bad for you. You almost had me there for a bit, but what kind of undercover cop leaves her badge on top of her towels in the bathroom cabinet? You might want to find another line of work.” He pulled back, looking at my naked body that he had just been tangled up in ecstasy with. “And last, because you were a really good fuck. With a pussy like that, I should have known you were too good to be true.”
