Magenta: The day my mom took up with Black Reign was the worst day of my life. She became ol’lady for their president. I became another whore for the club to push around. To hurt. And they all loved to hurt me. Especially Handlebar. I didn’t conform, didn’t obey like they thought I should. I fought them at every turn because death was preferable to living this life. Beaten, downtrodden, I was about to be given to yet another man. This one, however, was the scariest man I’d ever seen. He was intent on having me on his own turf and I wasn’t sure I would survive.
Sword: The second I saw the slight young thing being beaten by that ogre of a man, something inside me I’d thought leashed broke free. A demon better left in check reared his head and I knew she would be mine no matter what. I got her, but she came with bigger problems than I was prepared to deal with. Not that it mattered. I’m Bones MC. We don’t give up and we protect our own. Even against The Devil himself…
***WARING!*** Bones MC has no pussies. These men are rough around the edges and fight as hard as they love. You can expect violence -- some that may have triggers -- and smoking hot sex. If either is something you object to, you should pass. Otherwise, expect a HEA and a man who always satisfies his woman.
EXCERPT!
She was in Sword’s arms. In a
ridiculously small bed. Fully clothed in his shirt and sweatpants. At some
point, she’d sprawled out on top of him, her hair tangling them together like
silk bindings. One of his big hands rubbed soothingly up and down her back in
comfort. That hand seemed to span the entire width of her back as he moved it
over her skin lazily.
Magenta remembered him sliding into the
bed with her, wrapping her up in his arms as they’d talked. Their conversation
spun through her mind like a carousel. Did she believe everything he’d told
her? She wanted to. Though she knew better, Magenta decided she’d believe him
until he misplaced her trust. Didn’t mean she’d do it blindly though. Maybe she
should lay it all out for him.
“You’re fine, girl,” he murmured
sleepily. “We got an hour before we need to get up.”
“You know, if you’re trying to make me
give up information on Black Reign, I’m more than happy to do it without you
making me empty promises. Just promise you won’t make me go back, and I’ll tell
you everything I know. That’s the only promise I want
or need.”
He sighed, as if disappointed. “I just
want another hour,” he grumbled. “Fine. Magenta, I promise I won’t make you go
back. Think I said that earlier. Now, go back to sleep. You can spill it all
later.”
“You’re kind of a grumpy bear when you
wake up, aren’t you?”
Again, he grunted, but tightened his
arms around her.
“What are you going to do? You left a
man in the clubhouse so you can’t just blaze.”
With an exasperated grunt, Sword
rolled them both, maneuvering so that he lay sprawled on top of her, his arms
still wrapped around her. He nuzzled her neck, his lips grazing her skin in a
soft caress. “Hush now. I need this last hour.” He didn’t stop moving his mouth
over her neck.
“Stop,” she whispered, even as she
lifted her chin and tilted her head to give him better access. What was wrong
with her? Was she going to let him take advantage of her? God, her body had
suddenly come alive! Shivers coursed through her, and she realized that, for
the first time in her life, she was welcoming a man’s touch.
“I will if you want,” Sword said, even
as he licked her flesh with one swipe of his flattened tongue. “Seems like you
don’t know what you want. You didn’t push me away. Instead, if I’m not mistaken,
your little nails are diggin’ into my back like you’re trying to hold me to
you.” He sounded drowsy. Sexy. Like he was her lover waking her for morning
sex.
“I -- I don’t know…”
“It’s OK,” he said between nips and
scrapes of his teeth. “I’m not gonna take too big a bite out of you. At least
not here or now.” He let his lips wander from her neck to her collarbone and
back, never venturing into forbidden territory but arousing her like she’d
never been before. “When we go to confront Black Reign, you’re staying here
with Trucker.”
“You’ll need every man you have,” she
breathed out, scarcely able to form a coherent thought beyond the fact that she
wanted to cradle his head and push him to her aching breasts. “Crow will
annihilate you if you don’t. In fact, call in help. He’s trying to lull you
into a false sense of security before he springs whatever trap he has ready.”
“I promise you, the four men we’re
takin’ into that clubhouse will be better equipped to deal with that entire
club than Crow will be to deal with the four of us. But, you’re right. We
called in reinforcements last night. There will be some friends of ours coming
to help. Should be here in a little over an hour.” He shifted his weight off
her just a little, just enough for her not to feel trapped. Then he laid his
head on her chest and kissed the swell of her breast. “So I’d like to get my…”
he raised his head to look back over his shoulder at the clock on the wall next
to them, “fifty-four minutes.”
“Yeah. So would me and Viper.”
“If you guys need to get a room, you
should have said something instead of staying out all fuckin’ night ridin’.”
“You two shut the fuck up. I’m
determined to get my ‘fifty-four minutes’.”
“Fifty-three now, bro. Shut up your
own damned self.”
Magenta didn’t know what to think or
say. Lying with Sword like this was too intimate for strangers, but, strangely,
not uncomfortable. All kinds of things went through her mind. Like if the
others expected him to have sex with her right there. Did he expect that? If
she gave in and embraced the sensations he kindled, would he humiliate her like
Black Reign did? And what about Trucker? If everyone thought she’d given in to
Sword, would they expect her to service them as well?
“Just relax,” Sword whispered. “No one
is gonna hurt you.”
“You keep saying that.”
“You need to hear it.”
“Does me hearing it make it any truer
than if you never said it?”
There was a long silence, and Magenta
thought he’d dozed off. Then he lifted his face and kissed her throat, blazing
a hot trail to her lips where he lingered a moment before pushing off her and
getting to his feet. “I’ll wake you before we leave,” he whispered. “Get some
more sleep. It will be a long ride home.”
With that, he hopped
up onto the bunk above her. Immediately, Magenta felt his rejection like a
brutal punch. Realistically, she knew she couldn’t have it both ways. She
either wanted his touch or she didn’t. She was scared. Had voiced her
reservations about how safe she was with him. He’d responded with the only
option open to him.
