Summer Storm: A Satan's Fury MC Novella (5 page)

Usually riding calms me down, but there was an eerie stillness to the night that had me on edge. I knew in my gut that something wasn’t right. Just as I turned into Allie’s neighborhood, my three prospects whipped past me. They were chasing several of Tony’s crew, which meant they’d spotted them near her house. Fuck. I could feel my pulse racing through my veins as I imagined what could have happened if they hadn’t been there. In a matter of seconds, I was off my bike and pounding on her front door.

Allie

“K
ane?” I asked.
He was the last person I expected to see, and I didn’t know what to make of the intense look he had on his face. “Uh, what… what are you doing here? And how do you know where I live? What’s going on?”

“Nothing. Nothing… I, uh, I just needed to see you,” he said in a rush, trying to sound nonchalant and failing miserably. He stood there staring at me, relief clearly flooding his face. I could tell he was holding something back, but I was in such shock, I didn’t even care. I had to will myself not to reach out and touch him and prove to myself that he was really there. As thrilled as I was, though, I was equally baffled by the expression on his face. I had no idea what to think, but I was glad that he was there… whatever his reasons were. I had been on edge since my conversation with Tony, and there was something about seeing Kane’s face that made me feel safe.

“You want to come in for a drink or something?” I offered.

“Sure. You got a beer?” he responded as he walked into the room and closed the door behind him.

“Yeah, let me go grab us one. Just make yourself comfortable,” I said before turning towards the kitchen.

When I returned, he was sitting on the sofa, his eyes glued to me as I walked over and handed him the cold beer.

“Is everything okay, Kane?” I asked again as I sat down beside him.

He looked over to me and said, “Yeah… everything’s fine now.”

“Well, good. I guess,” I replied with a confused nod. “So, do you want to watch a movie or something?” I asked.

“I could watch something,” he said with a slight smile. I was relieved to see him start to relax.

I picked up the remote and started flipping through the movie channels, trying to find something I thought he might like. I got flustered because I had no idea what to pick, so I finally gave up and handed it over to him. “Here, see if you can find something.”

He scrolled through several channels before stopping on some old thriller I’d seen several times before but couldn’t remember the name of. “Is this the one where the boyfriend goes nuts and tries to kill her family?” I asked.

“No idea, but it has Mark Wahlberg in it, so it can’t be all bad.”

As we watched the movie, I nervously fiddled with the label on my beer bottle. The butterflies in my stomach went wild every time I looked over in his direction. I still wasn’t sure what had brought him over, and I was feeling a little insecure.

“I’m glad you’re here. It’s a nice surprise. I’ve, umm… I’ve been thinking about you,” I confessed.

“Is that right? And what exactly have you been thinking about me?” he asked with his eyebrow cocked high.

Color rushed to my cheeks as his attention turned to me. “Just… you know, it was nice getting to meet you after all of our messages. I was relieved that you weren’t some psycho just trying to get into my pants.”

“No one said I wasn’t trying to get into your pants, All-Star.”

“Oh, really?” I asked playfully. I was teasing, but a part of me was curious to see what he would do.

“Yeah… really,” he whispered. A thrill shot through me, and I couldn’t stop the mischievous grin that spread across my face.

He brought his hands up and rested his palms against my cheeks, slowly brushing his calloused thumb across my skin. He looked at me for what seemed like an eternity. Damn. There was something about him that made my body tremble with need, and having his body so close to mine was enough to send me over the edge. I watched in wonder as he lowered his perfect mouth down to mine, kissing me softly… so gentle and sweet. His scent circled around me, a mix of cologne and fresh leather. Just being close to him enthralled all of my senses.

I couldn’t resist him, even if I wanted to. His pull was too strong… I was falling for him, and there wasn’t a damn thing I could do to stop it. As soon as I brought my hands up to his chest, the kiss changed, becoming more intense and heated. Goosebumps swept across my flesh as he delved further into my mouth, exploring every inch with his tongue. His fingers dug into my hips as he pulled me closer to him, forcing a light moan to vibrate through my chest. The bristles of his beard lightly scratched against my skin as he took complete control of the kiss. My body ached for him, burning for more as he claimed me with his mouth. My hands began to roam over his chest, gliding over the bulging muscles of his abdomen. I wanted to touch his bare skin, feel the heat of his body pressed against mine. I couldn’t wait any longer. Without thinking, I began to tug at his vest, pulling it from his body. He took it from me, carefully setting it over the back of the couch. Once he turned back to me, I reached for the hem of his t-shirt and pulled it over his head. Once it was off, our hands became frantic, quickly removing the clothes that separated us. In just a few seconds, I was wearing only my lace bra and panties. My lips curved into a smile as I looked over to his clothes thrown haphazardly on the floor along with my pink satin bathrobe and nightie.

“Kane?” I whispered. I couldn’t stop staring at him. My eyes traveled along the lines and curves of the muscles of his chest, marveling at all of the tattoos that marked his body. I loved how he stared at my almost naked body with lust-filled eyes. I watched in eager fascination as his chest slowly rose and fell with each tortured breath he took. I could hear a faint growl escape him as his mouth settled over mine. We both sunk deeper into the cushions of the sofa as his hands slowly eased behind my back to release the clasp of my bra. As the fabric slipped away from my body, I felt his lips glide across my skin to my breast. Lust consumed me as the wet heat of his mouth engulfed my nipple and began to gently suck. He broke contact momentarily as he pulled back slightly and his strong arms repositioned me on the couch, his hard body moving to cover mine. His mouth resumed its heavenly torture of kissing and nipping the delicate skin of my neck. As he settled between my thighs, I rocked my hips, grinding against him as I tried desperately to find relief for the throbbing that was building up inside me.

“Steady, All-Star,” he whispered in my ear. His hand slowly slid between our bodies as he said, “I’m just getting started.”

He traced his fingers across my panties, teasing me with his light caresses. Pushing the fabric to the side, he slowly slid his finger into me. He twirled and flicked his fingers inside me, tormenting me with the motion of his hand.

“Is this what you want, baby?”

As I let my legs spread farther open for him, he growled, “That’s it, baby. Give it to me.”

His thumb circled around my swollen clit, drawing out my pleasure. As he found my g-spot, I held my breath, the muscles in my body quivering uncontrollably. I was still soaring in ecstasy when I felt my panties being ripped from my hips. The cushions underneath me shifted as he reached over for a brief moment to his clothes on the floor. I lifted my head just long enough to watch him slide the condom down his long, thick shaft. Then, a look of satisfaction crossed his face as he settled back between my legs and positioned his cock at my entrance.

“You ready for me, Allie?” he panted. “You want me?”

“God, yes!” I moaned.

He smiled appreciatively before his face took on a look of determination. He was struggling to control his lust that much was clear.

He clenched his jaw before lifting my hips and making one forceful thrust deep inside me, filling me completely. For a moment, I worried that I wouldn’t be able to take much more, but he remained still until my body was able to accommodate his invasion.

“Mm, damn, you feel so fucking good,” he growled. He slowly began to move, each thrust deliberate and powerful. I rocked against him with every stroke, trying to take him even deeper inside. His gaze burned into me as he brought his hand up to my neck, his fingers gently caressing my throat.

“This body is mine, Allie. All of you is mine, and I’m not letting you go.” The intensity of our connection was there in his eyes, and there was no denying that I felt it, too. I had felt it from the moment we first spoke.

“Yes…please…” I groaned in pleasure, reassuring him that I felt the same way. I was lost in the waves of carnal sensation he was giving me, the fullness of his body inside mine. His eyes never left mine as he increased his rhythm, each thrust more demanding than the last. My inner muscles clenched around him as I felt another orgasm building inside me. “Oh, God! Don’t stop!” I pleaded.

His punishing pace never faltered as his body continued to crash into mine. I’d never felt such an intense mixture of pleasure and pain. It was so intoxicating that I was finding it difficult to even breathe. His very touch sent me spiraling out of control, and I knew I would never be the same again. I wanted to remember everything about that moment… to focus on how incredible he felt, but it was all just too much. I couldn’t stop my treacherous body from seeking its ultimate high. I let out a strangled moan as my orgasm took over, my body jerking beneath him. I wrapped my legs tighter around him as the jolt of my release drove him to find his climax. A sublime sense of satisfaction rushed over me as his growl echoed through the room. His body trembled and the muscles in his abdomen grew taut as he finally came deep inside me. Tremors of pleasure wracked his torso as he lowered his body down onto mine, pressing my breasts against his chest. He looked down at me reverently as our shallow breaths mingled in the air between us. I felt so close to him in that moment, I never wanted it to end.

His breathing began to steady as he slowly started to lift his body from mine. I wanted to wrap my arms around him and keep him close, but I hesitated. When he noticed my reaction, he paused to stroke my cheek and whispered, “I meant what I said. I’m not letting you go.” Then, without another word, he stood and headed for the bathroom.

I was slipping on my bathrobe when he came back into the room. Without saying a word, he reached down, grabbing his clothes from the floor. A devious smile spread across my face as I watched him slide his jeans over his hips.

“Like what you see, All-Star?” he asked playfully.

“Hmm… yeah. You could say that,” I said as I smiled and ran my fingers through my hair. This man definitely knew how to get to me. Trying to change the subject, I asked, “So… why did you really show up here tonight?”

“I just wanted to see you… make sure that you were okay,” he told me, pulling his shirt down over his chest.

“Why wouldn’t I be okay?” I asked.

“You looked worried earlier today when your brother called. Couldn’t get it off my mind,” he confessed.

“Yeah, well,” I said as I tightened the belt of my bathrobe. “I was right about Tony. He’s in some trouble.”

“Did he say what kind of trouble?” he asked.

“He needs money…
a lot
of money,” I replied with a heavy sigh.

“What kind of money are you talking about, Allie?” he asked with a mix of concern and anger in his voice.

“Twenty-five thousand dollars.”

“And what exactly did he want
you
to do about it?”

“He asked me to get it for him, but I don’t have that kind of money. I’ll have to go to the bank and see if they’ll give me a loan or something,” I told him. Just the thought of the whole situation overwhelmed me. I could barely afford to pay my own bills. How was I ever going to be able to pay off that kind of debt?

“Have you really thought about this?” he asked as he crossed his arms over his chest.

“He’s in trouble, Kane. I have to do something to try and help him. I’ve never seen him like this. He’s seriously desperate. What kind of sister would I be if I didn’t even try to help?”

“Allie, do you really think giving him this money is going to help him?”

“No idea, but he said these people were going to kill him if he didn’t get it.”

“Who says they aren’t going to kill him either way? Can you really trust him?”

“I don’t know… but he said they might even come after me!” Just saying those words sent chills down my spine.

“Fuck that. I’m not taking any chances with you, Allie. You’re going to come stay with me.”

“What?” I couldn’t even comprehend what he was saying. My mind started running a mile a minute, and I couldn’t think of a logical response.

“We’ll sleep here tonight, but in the morning, we’re going to my place,” he demanded. “I’m not going to let anything happen to you.”

“Kane… that’s not necessary. Tony wouldn’t let anything happen to me.”

“If your brother had your safety in mind, he wouldn’t have brought you into his mess. He should have protected you and left you out of it.”
