“I want your pussy, Kelly. I want to fucking come inside you.”
She stared up me, licked her lips, and then wiped her mouth clean.
“Have I earned that, baby? Have I earned your come? I promise I will,” she panted as she slid herself back and spread her legs for me.
I ached for her. I could feel the blood pulsing through my veins and the room went black, everything except for Kelly and her milky white body that begged for my touch.
I threw myself down on top of the bed and thrust my cock inside her, watching her eyes go wide as she screamed into my shoulder. I had slowly eased myself into her before, but I was out of control this time. She brought out something inside of me that I didn’t dare show anyone. I rammed myself inside of her, harder and faster with each pump. She arched her back and moved into me each time. Her pussy was so tight that I wasn’t sure if she could handle all of me, but I didn’t fucking care. I was like an animal. I gave her more of me with each push and she just cried out for even more.
“Yes, yes, Hunter. Give me your cock, give me your come. I want you inside me.”
I was in a fury. I drove myself inside of her, deeper and harder, and watched her face light up each time. I could feel myself throbbing and I knew I was about to give her everything she wanted.
“Hunter, oh God, baby, can I come now? Please baby, I need it,” she cried out as I came into her, using the headboard to pull myself in as far as I could go. I raged on top of her, shooting every last drop of come I had deep inside her. I felt her legs shake around my waist as she came and her sweet liquid gushed out onto my stomach. Her nails ran down my back and tore at my skin until I finally dropped my body onto hers and felt her quivering beneath me.
I lay inside her as we both came back down to earth, and then rolled onto my back.
As I turned my head to look at her, she met my gaze and I stared deep into her eyes. She reached over and pushed the hair from my face as I pulled her in close and put my lips on hers.
“Never leave, Hunter. I never want you to leave.”
She let her head drop to my chest and moved her face into my neck.
“I’m not going anywhere, Kelly. Not without you,” I breathed out as I took her head in my hand. “I’m not going anywhere.”
She let out a deep and satisfied breath as she collapsed her body into me and I held her tighter than I ever thought I would hold anyone.
This was it. Both of our lives as we knew them were over.
Chapter 46
Kelly
I lay on Hunter’s chest and felt his sweat on my cheek. I opened my eyes and looked down his whole body. His perfect abs, his muscular legs, the way his thick cock draped over his left thigh. Every inch of him glistened in our sweat and I ran my hand over him as I lay there in his arms. There was no comparison to the feeling he gave me. I had never touched a drug in my entire life, but I can only assume this was what people went through. I was a true addict. I needed him, his touch. When it happened, I couldn’t think of anything else, and as soon as it was over, I wished it would start again. Even as we lay there, I wanted it again. I wanted more. I could feel my head moving up and down with every rise and fall of his chest and I buried myself deeper into him. Close was not close enough for us, and as I pushed my body into his, he only held me tighter. I felt like I was about to laugh and cry at the same time. Maybe this was what earth shattering orgasms did to a person. Whatever it was, I had never felt it before and I knew I would never feel it with anyone other than him.
“Fuck me, Kelly,” he panted as he slid his body out from under me and sat on the side of the bed. “You are fucking incredible.”
He was looking over his shoulder and smiling at me. It was a rare sight and it made me tingle from my head to my toes.
“So, Hunter, what do we do now?” I asked as I rolled on my side and rested my head on my hand.
“Well, I’ve got about five minutes before I need to fuck you again, so I guess I better find your brother some other bullshit job.”
“Hunter Donnelly. Was that a joke?”
He slid into his jeans and jumped as he pulled them up onto his body.
“Yeah, but don’t fucking tell anyone, all right? I’ve got an image to keep up.”
He did have an image. I could see the silhouette of his body standing in front of the window as he looked down on me. Every sharp angle on his massive frame blocked out the sun where he stood. He pushed his hands through his hair and slicked it out of his face. I could feel myself trembling again and shut my eyes, trying to stop it.
“You know what I mean, Hunter. How does this end?”
He sighed as he jammed his feet into his boots and buckled his belt around the tight V that sat below his abs. I wanted to have a conversation with him, but my eyes lured my brain away into thoughts of pure lust.
“It doesn’t, Kelly.”
Any humor in his voice disappeared as he walked to the corner of the room, picked up his bag, and dropped it on the top of the dresser. I heard him undo the zipper and saw him start to unpack what was inside. I felt my stomach drop.
He pulled out a pistol, jammed a clip into it, and cocked it before setting it down on the table. Next came a knife that he jammed into a leather holster and strapped to his leg. He looked at me as he came back up and made no apologies.
“This doesn’t fucking end. Ever. Even if, even when my old man finds us and I put that fucker in the ground. There is no doubt in my mind someone else will come. They’re going to keep coming and they will keep dying, but make no mistake, darling, they will keep coming.”
He crossed his arms and leaned back on the dresser.
“This is my life, Kelly. And now it’s yours too.” He reached into his pocket and pulled out his pack of cigarettes, putting one to his lips and lighting it.
I suddenly felt overwhelmed by the reality of it all.
“So how are you so calm?” I said, my voice rising more than I’d intended. “How? How can you just sit there? Shouldn’t we be?”
“Shouldn’t we be what, Kelly?” he interrupted. “Like I said, this is my life. There’s nothing I can fucking do about it other than enjoy whatever time I have left as best I can.”
I sat up and the gravity finally hit me.
“We can’t stay here, can we? We can’t stay anywhere.”
Hunter walked over to me and sat on the edge of the bed.
“We can stay here tonight. But if you’re looking for answers past that, sweetheart, well, I just don’t fucking have them.”
He put his hand in my hair and slid it down the side of my face.
“I’m so confused, Hunter. I just don’t know what I’m doing,” I said as I leaned my head into his hand.
“Yeah, well, I’m glad I’m not the only one,” he sighed as he took a deep drag off his cigarette. “Kelly, these last couple of days, these last few weeks, my world has fucking flipped upside down. I tried to stop it. I tried to outrun who I was and fight what was happening, but it was no fucking use. I am who I am and I can’t change that shit. I don’t want to. But I also know that I can’t fucking shake you. I tried. Goddamn you, I tried.”
He stood up and walked to the dresser and pulled out a bottle, “but it’s no fucking use. There is no old me or new me. There’s just fucking me and part of that means having you. Do you fucking get that?”
He unscrewed the cap and took a few swallows from the bottle and laughed to himself.
“This is so fucked up,” he muttered to himself.
“What?” I demanded of him. “What is so fucked up?”
He stared back at me through the hair that had fallen across his face and smiled.
“Language, sweetheart.”
“What? I can’t curse around here either? Well fuck you, Hunter. I’m sorry I fucked up your life!”
I swung my legs off the bed and started to stand up until I felt Hunter’s hand on my shoulder pushing me back down.
He sat down next to me and lifted my chin
with his hand.
“You’re fucking sexy when you curse, baby. Especially with no clothes on. You’re getting me hard, sweetheart.” He dipped his head down and placed kisses from my collarbone up to my neck.
“Hunter, stop,” I murmured, not meaning it at all.
“No,” he whispered plainly before bringing his eyes around to meet mine. “Kelly, you did fuck up my life, but that’s not what I meant.”
I could feel myself breathing hard as I stared into his eyes.
“So what did you mean?” doing my best to sound angry.
“I meant this feeling I get around you. It’s fucked up and I can’t explain it. It’s something I’ve never had before. I’ve been trying to kick it since I met you, and I just don’t want to anymore. I know I can’t. Kelly, I, I.”
“Hunter, don’t,” I protested. I knew exactly what he was going to say and I was terrified of what it would mean. Mostly because I knew I felt the same way.
But he just looked deep into my eyes, and once again, did what he wanted, when he wanted, and pulled me further into him.
“Kelly, I love you. I didn’t fucking think that was possible for me, but it is. I love you so fucking much.”
I sat for a moment, completely stunned at what I had just heard. I collapsed into him with my lips, wrapping my arms around him, and said the words to a man for the first time in my life, actually meaning them.
“I love you, too.”
Chapter 47
Hunter
I lay Kelly back on the bed and kissed her deeply. I meant what I just told her. I didn’t fucking understand it and the words just slipped out of my mouth, but I meant it. It came as naturally to me as anything else in my life and, as I felt her naked body pressed against me, I knew that this girl was not just some girl. She was the girl.
The way she looked at me with her beautiful green eyes, the way she stayed put and wouldn’t leave when she had every fucking reason to run, how she was just as beautiful standing there as she was when I drove my cock into her and opened her up, she was my fucking girl and I needed to accept it. There was no more fighting it and she was as much a part of me as any darkness that ran through my veins. There was no more me or her, just us. Maybe that meant we were fucked, but it was the way it was always meant to go down.
“Hunter,” she moaned into me, “Hunter, fuck me again.”
My cock started to rise in my jeans and I moved my lips from hers down to her breasts and took one of her nipples in my mouth, tracing the outside in a circle with my tongue.
She breathed out, a slow, stuttered breath.
“Hunter, fuck me, baby. I’m wet for you.”
I reached down to my jeans, undid my belt, and grabbed my cock. I was about to squeeze it inside her again when a voice called from outside.
“Hunter, Hunter, can you come here for a second?”
What the fuck, Lucas? You’ve got to be fucking kidding me, pal.
I pushed myself up off the bed and looked toward the window.
“I’m going to kill that kid. How could he be done with that barn already?”
Kelly looked up at me and smiled, batting her eyelashes and sighing deeply.
“Just go and see what he wants. I’ll be waiting right here.”
She was gorgeous. There was no way I was leaving her to go deal with whatever the fuck her little brother wanted.
“Not a fucking chance, darling. Not with you lying here like this.” I put my mouth on her again and moved my hand between her thighs.
“Hunter, just go,” she whispered as she gently pushed my hand back. “I’ll be waiting right here. All of me will be right here.”
I’m going to kill that motherfucker.
“Fuck,” I declared as I stood up. “This is bullshit. You better take care of this fucking hard on when I get back up here.”
Kelly just laughed as she lay back on the bed.
“You want me to start without you?” she teased.
I looked down on her as she slid her hand over her breasts and stomach, reaching between her legs and licking her lips.
“Fuck you,” I laughed. “Fuck you and your brother. Are you two trying to kill me?”
I couldn’t be mad at them, at either of them. They were my family now, and I wasn’t going to create a family like the one I’d suffered in when I was young. No, if I was going to create a family here with this woman, it was going to be fucking happy.
She giggled and rolled her face into the pillow before she looked back up at me, smiling. Goddamn, she was beautiful.
“I’ll be right back as soon as I get that kid locked in the barn and I don’t want you to fucking move. You lie there and wait for me. That pussy is mine. You’re forbidden from satisfying it without my help.”
Kelly took her hand away from her wet pussy and lay back on the bed.
“Don’t take too long now,” she said, teasingly.
I turned and walked out of the room, doing up my jeans and trying my best to hide the massive erection that stretched down my thigh.
I swear to God kid, whatever the fuck you want better be at least mildly important or I’m going to be mad as fuck.
As I walked down the stairs, I couldn’t help but wonder what the fuck I was doing. Forty-eight hours ago, I would have fucked her brains out as I made her brother wait outside and listen. Hell, forty-eight hours ago I wouldn’t even be at this fucking place with her, let alone her and some goddamn kid. This whole situation was profoundly fucked up, but, at the same time, it all felt right to me. Even the kid.
Even as I left the most beautiful woman I had ever seen lying on a bed waiting for me to take her, I wasn’t as angry as I fucking should be. I liked the kid. He was a fucking smart ass and a thorn in my goddamn side, but a part of me actually liked having him around.
It was the life I’d always thought I didn’t deserve. And here it was, coming to me like a gift from God.
You are fucking out of your mind, Hunter. If the lads back home could fucking see this.
But they wouldn’t see this. I was beginning to finally understand that. I may be the same fucking lowdown, murdering criminal, but I wasn’t in Boston anymore and any motherfucker I saw from that city was going to be showing up to kill me. I was the same person, but my life and the people around me had changed forever. Kelly was a part of me and the kid was a part of her. The whole family was now my people and, if I was being honest with myself, I knew that it was what I wanted. Even Grace had a place in my new life. No more Hunter Donnelly, the lone fucking wolf. I was never going to be Mister Family Man, but I was coming to terms with some blurry place in between.
What a fucking day.
“Luke? Luke? Where the fuck are you, pal?” I called out the door as I got to the front hallway.
“Hey there, Hunter boy.”
I stopped dead in my tracks and felt my hands ball into fists.
Fuck. Fuck no. Fuck No.
I knew that voice. That fucking disgusting, entitled voice.
I looked up and out the screen door. Old man Donnelly was standing in front of Kelly’s car with a knife to her brother’s fucking throat.
I’m going to pull your goddamn eyes out with my bare fucking hands, old man. That kid is my people now.
I burst through the screen door, rushing toward Lucas, when I felt a crack on the back of my head that sent me flying, face first, off the porch and into the dirt. I’d been clocked by a baseball bat before. I knew what it felt like. Some motherfucker had been on the other side of the door, waiting for me, and I should have known that.
“Hope you don’t mind us showing up like this, Hunter, but you haven’t been exactly returning my calls lately.”
I could see him walking toward me as my vision started to fade in and out.
Get up, Hunter. Get the fuck up. Now.
I started to push myself off the ground and then I felt a boot come down hard between my shoulder blades, forcing my face back into the dirt.
All right, how ma
ny of you fuckers are there?
I felt the butt of a bat come down on the back of my skull and the warm sensation of blood running down the side of my face. The last thing I heard as I passed out was footsteps coming closer and Lucas screaming into the old man’s hand that covered his mouth.
Chapter 48
Hunter
“Hey. Easy, easy, we don’t want Hunter here dying on us already. I’ve got a few things I want to talk over with him first. You alive, boy? Hey! I’m talking to you, you piece of shit.”
I could hear the old man walking toward me as I started to come to. I opened my eyes just in time to see his brown dress shoe come flying at me and connect with my mouth, snapping my head back violently.
“Stand this ungrateful fuck up. Hunter, Hunter? You with me boy, or did we hit your dumb ass too hard with that fucking bat?”
I was suddenly being pulled to my knees by two sets of arms. I felt boots go down on the backs of my legs as I was held there. I spat blood and saw it mix with the dirt in front of me. I was used to blood being spilled, it just wasn’t generally mine.
I looked up and smiled at the old man. I could feel the blood on my teeth and taste it on my tongue. I spit more onto the ground.
“Hey there, pops,” I breathed out. “What took you so fucking long? You a Sunday driver now, old man?”
He just stood there and laughed, all the while keeping a hand on Lucas’s mouth and the tip of a blade against his skin. He looked around at the crew he had brought with him. I didn’t recognize any faces. Maybe he cleaned house trying to figure out if anyone had helped me or if I’d acted alone. He should have fucking known better.
“Am I fucking crazy, boys? I’m actually happy to see this fucking puke. Look at him. What a fucking beast. It’s a goddamn shame you’ve got to go out like this, Hunter, but you have no one to blame but yourself, son.”
I stared back at him as the two fucks behind me dug their heels into my hamstrings. He was pathetic. Thinning slicked back hair, doughy body, wearing a fucking overcoat and dress shoes in the middle of the mountains. I hated him before, and I wanted to carve his goddamned heart out now. He hadn’t been able to beat on me since I was Luke’s age, and I guess the fucker was happy to see me because now he finally got his chance. He had to bring a couple of goons to do the dirty work for him, but that was par for the course with the bastard. All the evil, none of the goddamn strength. I would have felt bad for him, if I wasn’t fantasizing about pulling his teeth out with a pair of pliers.
