Revenge (15 page)

Eva had a feeling she didn’t want to hear the rest. For
the most part she liked to think Hardy and Rose’s relationship was solid. What
she was witnessing was telling her otherwise.

“Rose? Are you okay?” Angel asked.

The humor left Rose’s eyes, and all that was left was
pain. “Yeah, I’ll be fine.” For several seconds no one spoke. “Ten years ago
Hardy started to act differently. He was spending more time at the club and
rarely came home. Sex was a chore to him. He stopped wanting to have anything
to do with me. So, I decided to spruce things up. I put on the sexiest,
sluttiest outfit I could find, and I went to the clubhouse. No one stopped me
as I made my way toward Hardy’s room. No one knew what was happening, and
neither did I until I opened that door.” Rose took another large gulp of wine.
“I watched him fucking one of the sweet-butts that hung around the club at the
time.”

Angel gasped while Eva just felt sick. This was not
something she wanted to be hearing. All of her illusions about Rose and Hardy
were flying out of the window.

“Yeah, that’s right. He cheated on me with a fucking
slut who slept with all the club members.” Rose chuckled. “I left his ass, and
he came crawling back to me, not giving me a chance to really leave.”

“What happened? I mean, you had to take him back
because you’re together,” Eva said.

“I did after he begged and begged. No one at the club
knows what happened. I stayed away for the longest time. I wouldn’t talk to
him. We lived in the same house, but I wouldn’t talk to him or let him touch
me. Then, we started talking, and he apologized. He begged me to take him back.
Hardy wouldn’t leave me alone. He wouldn’t divorce me. For days he’d beg me to
take him back, to talk to him at every chance. I caved and started talking to
him. I’m not happy with my weakness. Slowly, we started to get back together.”
Rose was crying harder. “The bitch turned up three months later pregnant with
Hardy’s kid. Everything we’d been building was torn from us because she came
back for me. I wondered if I was even supposed to be giving Hardy another
chance. I mean, what kind of woman takes a cheating asshole back?”

Eva looked at Angel.

“I don’t know.” They both answered in unison, neither
knowing what could be the right answer.

Eva felt for the other woman. This sudden revelation
was more than she could stand. Rose had been hurting for years, and she’d never
known.

“What happened?” Angel asked.

“I can’t have kids, so I offered to be the mother to
the kid providing she stayed away,” Rose said. “She didn’t make it. Seven
months pregnant she got into a car accident, killing herself and the unborn
child instantly. I’d gotten the nursery ready, read all the books. I was happy,
or as happy as I could be. This is the anniversary of a lost dream.” Rose
raised her glass for them to join in.

Angel had tears streaming down her face. Eva swallowed
down the lump.

“I’m celebrating everything I’ve lost, and I’m tired
of doing it in private. Hardy is with me most of the time, but as usual the
club comes first. Well, guess what, secret is out,” Rose said.

For the rest of the day, Angel and Eva comforted Rose
as she sobbed and laughed, mourning her life. They took her up to be around the
kids. Watching Rose with their children, Eva’s heart went out to the woman.
Today’s revelation just went to show how little she knew about some of the
members.

Angel left with Lash when he came to collect her,
taking her son with her.

Hardy arrived with Tiny. By the time her husband
turned up, Rose was back to crying. The moment Rose saw Hardy, she started to
attack him.

“I fucking hate you!”

“What the fuck?” Tiny asked.

“Don’t,” Eva said, placing a hand on him. “This is
between them.”

“It’s over, Rose. Ten years now. You’ve got to let it
go or let us adopt.”

“You hurt me,” Rose said.

“I know, but I love you. There has not been another
woman since. You own me,” Hardy said, picking her up in his arms. The other man
looked tired. The cracks in their marriage had been long in coming.

****

Closing the door behind Hardy, Tiny turned to his
woman.

“Tate picked up Simon an hour ago. She wanted to
murder Hardy over what happened,” Eva said.

“I don’t doubt it. How did Angel take the news?”

“How did you know?”

“Hardy told me when he turned up with a red face from
Rose slapping him. I’ve never known her to be like this.” Tiny banded an arm
around Eva’s waist.

“They kept secrets from the club.”

“It was personal secrets. I didn’t need to know that
Hardy had cheated on his woman. It sucks.” Tiny led her into the kitchen where
the remains of
Rose’s
drinking lay.
“Makes
me wonder if she danced because he liked it or to make him jealous.”

“They’re a complicated couple.” Eva moved out of his
arms to put the bottle in the recycle trash can and clean up the glass. “Are
you hungry?”

“Yeah, starved.
Have the kids eaten?”

“Yep, they’ve eaten and they’re settled for the night.
Rose calmed down a little when we got her to help. I’ve never seen a woman so
desperate for a child before.” Eva started to make him up a sandwich.

He watched her working, feeling the need to fuck her
come over him. It had been a long day, and all he wanted to do was
sink
inside her warm cunt.

“Lash said Angel came here?”

“We were talking about the club. She likes Gash,
thinks he’s a nice guy.”

Tiny chuckled. “It took four sweet-butts to calm him
the fuck down. I kid you
not,
they were going in and
out of his room, taking turns.”

“Did you get anything done today?” Eva asked, turning
the conversation to a more serious matter.

“We’re working toward taking out Gonzalez.”

“What?” Her eyes were wide as she handed him a sandwich.
Tapping his leg, he waited for her to sit down before he started to eat.

“Whizz came up with a plan. I’ve never seen him like
this. It’s like he’s his old self. He got a plan, and we’re working to put it
into effect.”

“You’re not going to keep me in the dark about this,
are you?” she asked.

Tiny had learned his lesson the hard way. “No, I’m not
going to keep you in the dark. We’re thinking of taking him out in the town
hall. Inviting him to a fake wedding and when there is some commotion, Butch is
going to slit his throat while we take out his men.”

“What have you learned to make you decide this plan?”
Eva nuzzled his neck.

“For as many men that Gonzalez has favors owned to
him, there are the same
number
of men who hate his
guts. Whizz has got several of the men in agreement. We take him out, and
they’ll back off. Also, your father phoned me. There’s a group of men who want
to take their businesses back from Gonzalez. Gonzalez went to them offering
them a better deal and then took what they had, hurting them. Women started to
turn up dead as he took what they weren’t prepared to offer. Girls, boys, and
women, they were all found dead at some point. Men are no long prepared to take
the fall for a man who won’t do shit to help anyone. They want him gone, and
they’ve sided with us. We can start to get ahead. Gonzalez has fucked with too
many people to get where he is, and now they want him dead.”

The news had given
Tiny
hope
of getting rid of Gonzalez faster than he originally planned. With more men on his
side, they had a better chance of surviving.

Eva ran her hand up and down his thigh. “My father
didn’t call me.”

“This was strictly
business
.
He’s been helping the club to get back on its feet ever since Gonzalez came
into our lives and fucked it up.” Eating his sandwich, Tiny tried not to think
about how close her fingers were to his cock.

“What about Butch? What’s he got to do now?”

“No word on Butch. He hasn’t heard from Gonzalez since
Patricia and the planned raid, nor has he gotten any more orders. We’re
expecting him to call and give some news out about one of you. In return, we
get some more details on the men close to Fort Wills. We get the men close to
us out of the way, and we can go to the next step.”

“This is dangerous,
Tiny
. I
don’t like it. If the men knew you were putting Butch in danger, there’d be
problems.”

“Once this is all over I’m going to tell the men. I’m
not going to let Butch take the fall for my mistake.” He pushed his plate away
and turned to her. Eva rested her head against his chest, her gaze on his.

“What are you thinking?” she asked.

“Do you have to guess?” He slid his hand from her
waist up to cup her breast. “Why do you have to keep wearing jeans?”

“I almost fell down the stairs while carrying Miles. I
doubted you’d be happy with me if I hurt our son or daughter.” She moaned as he
pinched her nipples.

He loved it when Eva wore the flimsy bras. They didn’t
do much in the way of covering her body from his touch. Slowly, he released
each small button holding her shirt together until she was bare for him to
touch.

“Do you want me to stop?” he asked.

“Stop and I’ll shoot you.”

“I love it when you talk dirty to me.” With his other
hand, he turned her head to the side and started to kiss her neck. She
shuddered, arching up to his touch.

“Please, Tiny. I need you to fuck me.”

“Tell me exactly what you need,” he said. “Don’t leave
a single detail out.”

“I need your cock inside me.”

“In where?
Your mouth?
Your cunt?
Or your ass?”
The pain
intensified as his cock thickened. There was nothing he hadn’t done to her in
the last few years. He knew every inch of her body, had spent hours learning
what she liked, how best to touch her to bring her to orgasm. Tiny knew her
neck was one of her most erogenous zones. If she wasn’t in the mood, all he had
to do was stroke and nibble her neck to get what he wanted.

“I want you in my mouth, Tiny. I want to suck your
cock,” she said. Releasing her body, he pushed away from the counter and stood.

“Get on your knees.” He wasn’t the kind of man to deny
his woman what she wanted. Unbuckling his belt, he pulled out his cock and
stroked the length. “Do you want this?”

With Eva on her knees, she nodded her head. “You know
it is.”

“Come and take it.” She shuffled forward, placing her
palms on his thighs.

“You may need to sit down, Tiny,” she said, warning
him.

“I can take your mouth. Get me ready and I’ll fuck you
so hard you won’t be able to walk properly for a week.”

“Only a week.”
She gripped the base of his shaft, working from the root to the tip then
down again. Gritting his teeth, he fisted his hands at his sides to stop
himself from taking over and forcing his cock down her throat.

Eva licked the tip, flicking her tongue across his
slit. His pre-cum leaked out, and he watched her swallow down each droplet as
it appeared.

“Do you like the taste of
my cum
?”
he asked.

“Yes,” she said, moaning.

When he was in control of his mind and body once more,
he reached out to wrap the length of her hair around his wrist. She opened her
lips and took more of him inside.

Once she had the tip of his cock in her mouth, he
thrust a little more, desperate to feel her mouth over all of his cock.

She moaned, and the vibration ran up his shaft.

Watching his cock disappear inside her mouth turned
him on more as her moans increased and deepened. “Fuck, baby, that’s it. You
know how to take a cock in your mouth. Fuck yeah.”

Eva released his cock to slide her tongue down the
long vein down the side.

Several times she licked across the vein before
swallowing him down.

“Fucking shit,” he said, growling the words out as she
took him to the back of her throat.

When she started to gag, Eva pulled away and repeated
the motion until she stopped licking and simply sucked him into her mouth. Her
head bobbed in his lap.

Minutes passed as she brought him close to orgasm.
When he could no longer stand the feel of her lips around him, he tugged on her
hair, drawing her up to her feet.

“I want inside you.”

“Don’t you like me sucking your cock?” she asked.

“You know I do. There’s nothing I like more than
having your mouth on me.” He kissed her lips, not caring if he could taste
himself on her tongue.

Lifting her up onto the counter, he tugged at her
jeans, cursing her taste in clothing. “From now on you need to start wearing
skirts.”

She chuckled, lifting herself off the counter so he
could slide the jeans and panties off her.
