Bane Returns

by KJ Dahlen

  “Right?” Kisa laughed.

  Joey shut the door and went over to sit at the table by the window.

  Kisa followed him over and sat down to look at him. “What is Redemption?”

  Joey looked up at her. “What?”

  “Deke said ‘don’t go back to Redemption,’ ” she reminded him.

  “Oh, it is actually called Redemption House. His wife, Cassie has a few of them. They help people. The homeless, women, and children from domestic abuse.”

  She cocked her head at him. “So, do you work there?”

  “Sort of. I do a lot to help. But most all of the occupants there do.” He stared at her. “I was referred there by a friend.”

  “For the job?’ Kisa looked confused.

  “No.” He stared at her. This was it. Time to tell this woman the truth. He wondered if it would scare her away. But if so, he needed to find out now. “I have PTSD. I was over in the Middle East and things did not end well.” He lowered his head. “I cannot be in crowds or around too much drama.”

  Kisa sighed and reached out to take his hand. “Well, you seemed fine when you were protecting me from Bane. And that was REAL drama”

  He raised his head as he realized she was right. “Yeah, I never even felt rattled. Not like when he first got here. The man is scary as shit.”

  The both laughed.

  “Yeah, he is!” Kisa exclaimed. “Wow. But honestly, you looked cool and calm when you faced him down.”

  He squeezed her hand. “I promised you that I would protect you.”

  “Yes, you did and you made good on that. I’m still amazed that you left here and came looking for me in the first place. Then when I asked... You gave me that answer? No woman should be alone either?” She gazed into his eyes. “No one has ever done anything so kind for me before. Not even my own family.”

  “I don’t want you to feel grateful. That is not why I did it.”

  Kisa leaned closer over the table. “I know and that just makes it all the more significant. You want to know how I really feel?”

  Joey stared at her and gave her a nod.

  She stood, came around the table, and took his hand.

  He stood and gazed down at her.

  Grabbing his face, she raised up on her tiptoes and placed her lips over his.

  The kiss was so much better than the one they shared so unexpectedly in the van earlier. This kiss was fiery and explosive. It went on for a few minutes as they both became breathless.

  Kisa groaned and pulled away from him reluctantly. She stared at him and without a word, she pulled off her shirt. Then she removed her jeans. She only wore her bra and panties now.

  Joey stared at her for a long moment, she was curvier than he’d thought. With full breasts and long legs. He unbuttoned his shirt. Pulling it off, he exposed his chest. He was fit, as he didn’t just sit around all day on his PC. He worked out every morning. Now he felt glad he had by the way Kisa looked at him.

  Kisa swallowed hard as she stared.

  His hands went to the button on his jeans and he slowly pulled them off his legs. He now stood there in his briefs.

  She reached out a trembling hand and touched his chest.

  Joey leaned forward and brushed his lips over hers. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer.

  Joey grabbed her bottom with both as he picked her up and carried her over to the bed. He tossed her gently down and followed her. He pulled down her bra and immediately began to kiss and suck on her breasts. Kisa moaned as his lips, teeth and mouth feasted on her. He couldn’t get enough of her as he paid close attention to her breasts, licking and teasing her nipples. First one breast then the other. Her core wept as she lifted her hips and began rubbing against his cock.

  Joey groaned and his hand went to her wet core. Ripping her panties out of the way, he touched her and found her moist and ready for him. He pushed one finger inside her and felt her tightness. He added another finger and she opened her legs a bit wider. Joey kissed her again as he felt her respond to him while her body seemed to relax. He wanted even more as he paused long enough to tear his briefs off, then he was there. He slowly moved her panties down her legs.

  His cock rubbed her core coating himself in her juices before he nudged her at her entrance with the tip of his cock.

  God damnit, he never felt anything so magnificent and he hadn’t even entered her yet. No, he wanted to taste her. Sliding his body down, he lowered his head in between her legs and placed his lips on her clit. Holding her thighs apart, he flicked his tongue in and out of her, lapping her up. Her flavor was heady, and so damned sweet.

  Kisa moaned and writhed in his arms while the sounds she made spurred him on. He grabbed her ass again and dragged her further along the bed so she was now totally under his lips. He began to suck on her clit in earnest.

  She grabbed his head, his shoulders.... anywhere that she could reach. “Oh, what are you doing? Oh, my god!”

  He did not answer as he used his tongue on her again and again, causing her to arch her back and writhe with total pleasure. Finally, she reached the abyss and flew over while coming into his mouth, sobbing his name. Even then, he did not release her. Her legs were now hanging loosely over his shoulders and he continued to hold them that way while he used his fingers to bring her to another climax.

  Then he used his mouth one more time, delving deep with his tongue.

  At this point, Kisa was out of her mind with need and want. This was really happening and she could barely believe it. She didn’t know what she wanted more. To do as he did and slide her lips over his satiny skin to taste every inch of him or take him inside her. She wanted him inside her badly and she had never wanted that before from any man.

  Raising up, he stared down at her.

  Their eyes locked and Kisa never felt so connected to someone in her whole life. She barely knew him, but it felt like she had always known him. She again reached up with her hand to find his skin felt satiny under her fingers.

  He eased himself into her. She was so wet and slick that it wasn’t hard for him to do. A flash of pain came then it left completely, as he lifted her left leg, opened her wider and went deeper.

  His lips explored her neck and her mouth as he kept a rhythm that had her mindless.

  She let out a whimper and wrapped her arms tight around his body, as if clinging to him for dear life. Her right leg locked around his waist and they were more than one being. As he gazed into her eyes, she became transfixed. She realized suddenly that she had allowed him to be part of her, just at this moment. She accepted this and hoped he felt the same way as he captured her lips and they rolled in the bed, so she was on top of him.

  Kisa had never been with a man before, but she felt like this was natural and she just went with what her body wanted. She shyly rode him slowly at first as she attempted to fit him inside her. The pain dissipated and the sweet feel of pleasure took over again. He thrust upwards as she rode him. Her fingers locked on his as she pinned his hands down and used that to steady herself.

  “So can I call you sweetheart now?” he asked in a husky voice.

  A laugh bubbled out of her. “Da, you can call me sweetheart or baby, or anything you wish. But do not ever call me a bitch.”

  Joey stared up at her. “Wow, I can see you will be a challenge. But I like challenges.” He smirked.

  She continued to rise up and slam herself back down, getting more pleasure than even before.

  His eyes rolled back in his head and he pulled her down to him. Their mouths melted against each other and he throbbed inside of her.

  Kisa again climaxed and it seemed to never stop as she gripped him tightly. She had never expected this. Today had started out as the worst day of her life and now, it would end as the best day of her life. If her brothers or Aloysha found her and killed her, at least she got to really live and she did something she had wanted to do. Joey was the best thing to ever happen to her. Even though she believed that sh
e would never be able to stay with him, he would still always be the best thing she ever knew.

  Kisa felt a connection with someone that she never before dreamed existed in the world.

  Joey lunged up inside her one more time and he filled her with his seed as he kissed her again. This time it was sweet and tender.

  Kisa wondered. Is this love? Is this what love feels like? She whispered, “YA dumayu, chto lyublyu vas.” I think I love you.

  They both were breathless as their heavy breathing was the only sound in the room for several minutes.

  Finally, Joey looked over at her. “What did that mean?”

  Kisa shook her head. “What?”

  “What you said a few minutes ago. In Russian?”

  Kisa sighed. “I don’t remember. When I get emotional, I rant in Russian. Sorry.”

  He chuckled as he reached for the blanket, and wrapped her up. “Sweet Kisa, I never experienced anything so dammed beautiful.”

  She more than agreed, but she had no words to tell him that. She would keep this memory in her heart forever, she vowed as she curled her upper body against his chest.

  Kisa never felt so safe, so happy. She got to have this and she felt grateful for it, as she fell asleep against his heartbeat.

  Chapter Sixteen

  Bane stood at the window as it was an hour before sunrise. He hadn’t slept. How could anyone here sleep? He had his weapon bag on the floor beside him. His killer instincts told him, he was being hunted. It was an odd feeling, one he’d only known a few times in his life. He felt it now. But he had no fear. Not from these hunters.

  All he felt was a cold, deep rage.

  He glanced over at Sarah who was still asleep in the bed. He felt glad she wasn’t awake. He knew he wasn’t the man she loved at this moment. Heading over to the bed, he stared down at her. He hoped to return to her and the baby she carried. He knew one thing for sure. She would be a great mother to his progeny. He paused. Isn’t that the only important factor here?

  If he did not return, his child would be loved by her, raised right and be protected by his group.

  He lowered his body quietly and slowly to place a light but sweet kiss on her forehead. His eyes took in the angel of his existence, the person that had helped him to feel love, to know love. He never deserved it, never earned it, but she loved him in any case.

  He loved her as well and if he returned, he would be marrying this woman and this time, it would be real. It would be what they both wanted. He carried the ring in his pocket even now. He hoped to return and place it on her finger.

  He silently walked across the room and picked up his bag.

  “Please come back to me,” she whispered from the bed.

  Turning, he stared at her. He shouldn’t be surprised that she awoke, she had a sense of him that no other human being had ever possessed. He could only nod. He didn’t trust words just at this moment. He didn’t trust fate. He trusted nothing except for the beast in him to finish this.

  He went to the door without pausing, without looking at her. He knew if he did that, he would see that he had just left his humanity in that bed with her and his child.

  Bane went out the door as a beast, a killer with no feeling at all inside his cold heart.

  It had to be this way. If not, he might not survive.

  A loud alarm went off.

  Joey gasped and bolted up in the bed.

  “W-hat is that?” Kisa asked from next to him.

  He shook his head and jumped out of bed, pulling his jeans on.

  Kisa rose up, grabbed her clothes, and rushed into the bathroom.

  Joey finished dressing and the alarm seemed even louder.

  A pounding sounded on the door.

  He strode over and tried to open it. The handle didn’t budge.

  The knocking grew more insistent.

  He then realized he hadn’t punched the code in on this side of the door. 4040, he tapped it in.

  The door opened.

  Gator stood there. “Shit is going down. Deke wants the girl in the security room, now!” He turned and rushed down the hall.

  Kisa came over. “Klyanus’ bogami, my umrem?”

  Joey frowned and stared at her.

  She shrugged. “Sorry. I panicked. Never mind.”

  He shook his head. “Are you ready?”

  Nodding, she took his hand and they rushed down the hall.

  Nearly skidding to a stop at the open door, Joey pulled her in.

  The screens all had 4 images, or video feed on them.

  Joey blinked and tried to figure out what he was looking at.

  From beside him, Kisa was doing the same thing and then she gasped.

  Deke turned his head from where he leaned in front of one of the monitors. “You recognize them?” He stared at Kisa.

  Kisa slowly nodded her head.

  One screen showed a man beyond a fence line, he held a small Gatling gun poised at the clubhouse.

  Kisa raised her hand and pointed. “That is Maksim.” She swung her arm over to the second monitor.

  This one showed a man in a tree. He held a large weapon in his hand. A rocket launcher.

  “That is Grigori,” she stated in a shaky voice.

  The other two screens showed men in black clothing, they both held rifles.

  “Those are the men with the V tattoos,” she confirmed.

  Deke nodded. “My men are getting into position.”

  “Well, they’d better be quick,” Joey said. “The weapons they have are massively damaging.”

  “Yes, we know that,” Sam grumbled and rolled his eyes. “This ain’t our first war, kid.”

  Kisa stared at the screens while looking utterly pale.

  Joey noted this and wrapped an arm around her shoulder. “Maybe you shouldn’t be here.”

  Shaking her head, she whispered, “YA dolzhen byt’ zdes.” She swallowed heavily and tried again as her voice cracked. “I have to be here. This is...” she choked back her tears. “...the end.”

  “It isn’t the fucking end of anything, girl!” Sam growled. “Not for us it isn’t. We got Mountain, Wiley, Iceman, and Gambler going up top to take care of these fuckers.”

  Bastian and James came into the room. They both stopped in their tracks as they too, stared at the monitors.

  Zipper called to Deke, “Um... Prez?”

  Deke swung his gaze over to his IT man. “What?”

  Zipper tapped his headset. “Mountain says the rooftop door is locked or braced shut.”

  “What the fuck?” Deke growled and put on a head set. “What the hell’s going on?” he asked into the mic.

  Bastian shook his head and looked over at James.

  James bit at his lip and also shook his head.

  Joey watched them both.

  Kisa jumped as she stared at a screen.

  Feeling this startle of her body next to him, Joey then followed her gaze.

  Maksim had been shot in the forehead as a small but bloody hole formed there and he fell face first to the dirt.

  Kisa was trembling as tears rolled down her cheeks.

  “The fuck?” Deke shouted. “I told you men on my signal!”

  Then many things happened so very fast that Joey almost couldn’t keep up.

  Grigori saw his brother fall and raised the launcher up to his shoulder.

  “Fuuuccck,” Zipper muttered.

  “The hell?” Sam shouted. “Fire in the hole!”

  Then Grigori’s body bolted violently as an odd apparatus appeared in his chest, blood gushed out from the hole it caused. He looked stunned and toppled from the tree.

  “What the hell?” Deke shouted. “What the fuck are you guys doing?” he asked into the mic.

  Joey shook his head. “Nothing, they aren’t doing this.” He met Bastian and then James’ gaze.

  No one else seemed to hear him in the confusion.

  Kisa was crying but she kept still as her hands were fisted by her sides.

&nb
sp; “Boss, we can’t get through to the roof!” Wiley yelled so loudly that all in the room could even hear it over the headsets.

  Next, one of the Vory started to fire his rifle, but he only got one shot in before his body was blown off the tree he was in by a massive shot from somewhere above.

  The second Vory was firing away at the roof then fell the same way, toppled from his perch in the tree.

  Pure chaos ruled in the security room as Deke, Gator, and Sam were issuing orders and asking what was happening.

  Then suddenly—it all stopped.

  The enemy was gone as far as they could tell.

  “Fucking Bane!” Deke shouted. Then he looked over at Bastian and James with a glare in his eyes.

  Bastian said not a word.

  James however, added his thought, “You may not like it, but you gotta be glad he is on your side, right?”

  Sam and Deke simply stared at him like he had grown two heads.

  Just then, Raine and Cricket appeared at the door.

  Deke stared at her then glanced over at Raine.

  Raine shook his head. As if to say, he could not stop her from coming.

  Deke stared at Cricket. “Your uncle took out the threat. Dusty will be safe now.”

  Cricket had tears running down her cheeks. She nodded and Raine took her out of the room.

  “Boss, we got more company,” Zipper called out as he tapped his keyboard.

  They all swung their gazes to the screen to see a huge, long black limo at the gates.

  “Well fuck,” Sam grumbled. “We have the fucking king of Armageddon on our roof and now the devil is at our gates.”

  Conclusion

  Leon Vincinti walked into the main room of the Sin’s Bastards MC compound. Two huge men shadowed him with every step he took.

  Iceman and Deke along with the entire group were standing there waiting for him.

  Leon walked over to where they all stood.

  Kisa watched him. Being around men in her family for her whole life had never prepared her for the power emanating from this one man. Dressed in a tailor made Italian suit that fit him perfectly, he strode over like a panther. His eyes held an emotion that seemed unfathomable.
