Campbell's Reaper: Soul Reapers #2 (12 page)

“
Campbell . . . Campbell . .
. look at me damn it.
”
The voice sounded like it was at the end of
a tunnel. It sounded so familiar, but it was hard to hear with the thump of my
heart beat in my ears.

“
Shut the fuck up,
”
Blaze yelled as he stayed
behind me.

“
Campbell . . . please
Sunshine, look at me.
”
Sunshine! That word alone had my eyes
snapping open to find the man who said it.

Tank.
“
Tank,
”
I murmured as my eyes
feasted on the very much alive man before me. He looked like shit but he was
alive and breathing. His hand held a gun with a silencer on it.

“
Let her go NOW.
”
I could hear Tank
’
s
barely contained rage in his voice.

“
No fucking way asshole. Get
the fuck out before I kill her.
”
Blaze
’
s
voice wavered on the last few words telling us that there was no way he was
going to kill me.

“
Crazy Z would skin you
alive if you killed her,
”
Tank countered as he took a step towards us.
How did he know Crazy Z was a part of this?

“
I don
’
t
know what you are talking about,
”
Blaze said as he took a
step back, dragging me with him.

“
Oh really. Your cut says
otherwise asshole,
”
growled Tank.

No more weak Campbell.
My
pep talk from the rest stop bathroom came back to me as I felt my courage
growing. I eyed Tank trying to get his attention. I moved my eyes to the right
as I slightly tilted my head. Tank never indicated that he got what I was
trying to convey until he yelled,
“
Now!
”
out of the blue. I threw my
body to the right as two pops sounded. Blaze
’
s
grip tightened as the impact from the bullets threw him backwards, bringing me
with him. As I landed on top of him, the arm around my waist instantly loosened
right as Tank was dragging me away from Blaze. Two quick pops filled the quiet.

“
Tank,
”
I cried as I crawled up his
body, burying my face in his neck.

“
Sunshine,
”
he murmured, holding me
snug against his body.  We stood like this for a few minutes before he pulled
away slightly.
“
I need to make a phone
call.
”

“
Ok,
”
I sighed as he put me down.
I wobbled a little so Tank kept one hand on my shoulder.

“
You alright?
”
asked Tank. His eyes back
to the bottomless oil pits from when I first met him.

“
Yes,
”
I said as I shook my head
no. A quirk of his lips was his only response as he sat me down on the bed.
Tank went over to Blaze, searching his pockets for God only knows what. He
stood up showing me the phone he pulled off Blaze. After dialing, Tank brought
the phone to his ear. A tear ran down my cheek as I heard Colt
’
s
voice on the other end.

“
Who the fuck is this?
”

“
Brother,
”
Tank replied.

“
Tank. Thank fuck. Where the
hell are you?
”
I
heard Colton say. Logan
’
s voice could be heard as
she yelled question after question at Tank.

“
Some shit motel two towns
over,
”
Tank said after Colton got
Logan to calm down. After giving me one last look, Tank turned and walked to
the door, opening it just enough to slip through. I heard him say,
“
I
need a clean-up crew A-SAP,
”
as he closed the door behind him.

I looked around the room taking in the
carnage that Tank unleashed in just a few minutes. Weak Campbell decided to
make an appearance as I laid down on the bed curling into a ball as I cried. My
tears were for what I just witnessed, for Tank because he would have to live
with killing two men and for Logan and myself at fear of what Crazy Z would do
next. Tank returned some time later scooping me up and carrying me out of the
room. I clung to him because he was once again my hero and I knew without a
doubt my everything.

He turned left, taking me down the
walkway.
“
I was going to get us a room so we could
freshen up while we wait for my brothers to get here,
”
he said as he walked down
the motel steps to the ground floor. He put me down at the bottom, leaving me
there as he got another room.

Once we were settled in the room, Tank
turned to me.
“
Why don
’
t
you go shower? Colton said Logan would pack a change of clothes for you.
”

“
Ok,
”
I said as the last bit of
adrenaline left my body. I swayed on my feet as dark spots crept across my
vision.

“
Whoa.
”
Tank caught me before I hit
the floor.
“
You ok?

“
No,
”
I answered. I felt the
tears starting to build as I looked him in the eyes.

“
Shh, Sunshine. It
’
s
ok,
”
Tank said, cupping my jaw.
I winced when he touched my battered cheek.

“
Fuck!
”
Tank howled through
clenched teeth. I tried taking a step back, his outburst surprising me.
“
Shit,
”
he muttered as he ran his
hands through his hair. A tear slipped down my cheek as I continued to stare at
him; at a lost to the sudden rage that radiated from him.

Tank took one, then another step
towards me. Slow and deliberate, he treated me like I was a wounded animal that
would run away at any moment. He stopped right in front of me. 
“
Sunshine,
I . . . seeing your beautiful face all banged up because of me sets me on
fucking edge.
”

“
Because of you?
”
I asked as I closed the
little distance between us.
“
You are the reason, twice
now, that I don
’
t have more wounds from
this horrible weekend.
”
He shook his head no as I stood on my tippy
toes, linking my arms around his neck.
“
Yes.
You. Are.
”
I
punctuated each word so he would know how serious I was. His gaze was distant
as he looked out over my head.
“
Look at me,
”
I said, wanting his eyes on
me. He did as I asked; showing me the thoughts that ran through his head that
he would never put a voice to.

“
Tank,
”
I paused, wanting to say so
many things. Instead, I pulled his head to mine, slamming my lips against his.
Tank stiffened but quickly gave in as I ran my tongue along the seam of his
lips. He wrapped his arms around me, hugging me to him as he opened his lips
allowing me the access I had been craving for a month. The kiss turned needy in
a matter of moments as the need to feel the other alive and whole grew.

Tank

I needed to put space between us, but
like a moth I was physically drawn to her light; my Sunshine. When her lips
found mine I knew in that moment that nothing would ever taste better.
Fuck
she tastes good. Like the first day of summer as a kid, all those months of
sunshine and fun staring you in the face.
My body, my heart would never get
enough even though my mind was screaming for me to step away. I started to pull
away but she wrapped her arms around my neck holding me in place.

All thoughts but her flew from my mind
as her tongue touched mine. Every kiss tasted better than the one before it. My
will power was for shit right now. The hunger for her grew. My hands wandered
down her back to her ass, which I squeezed twice before lifting her up.
Sunshine wrapped her toned legs around my waist, bringing her heat right up
against my cock. I moaned in response. Her legs tightened as she started to
rock against me. My hips bucked into hers with each brush of her pussy against
me. I needed her fucking naked now!

“
Tank,
”
Sunshine urged as I laid
her in the bed letting my weight sink against her.
“
Please,
”
she gasped as she continued
to rub her pussy against me chasing her release.

“
That
’
s
it Sunshine,
”
I
crooned as I shifted slightly allowing my hand to run along the top of my jeans
she wore, that were so big I had no trouble fitting my hand between them and
her skin. I found her panties wet with her wanting. Her breathy moans had me
moving her panties to the side as my fingers pushed through her folds. Back and
forth I rubbed her pussy, until finally entering her with one finger. A groan
escaped me as her pussy grabbed onto my finger pulling it deeper into her. I
added a second as Campbell
’
s back arched off the bed
and her hips moved in time with my hand.

My thumb rubbed against her clit as I
encouraged her.
“
Let go Sunshine. I got you.
”
I applied more pressure as
my lips trailed along her jaw to her ear. Campbell
’
s
movements became frantic as she pressed her core harder and faster against my
hand. Her breathing hitched as she stiffened in my arms.
“
That
’
s
it Sunshine,
”
I
murmured as I continued to massage her pussy. She shuddered as her eyes rolled
back; her orgasm overtaking her.
Fucking perfect.
Sunshine coming apart
in my arms was the most beautiful thing I ever saw. I could not wait until it
was my dick wrapped in her pussy coated in her juices bringing this look to her
face.

When both of our breathing finally
slowed, I lifted my head. What greeted me was the stuff of wet dreams. Campbell
looked thoroughly sated with her lips red and swollen from our passionate
exchange, her hair fanned out all around her as she lay motionless in my arms.

“
Go shower Sunshine,
”
I directed as I untangled
our limbs and stood. I adjusted my rock hard cock as I took a deep breath.

“
What about you?
”
Her whispered question had
me swinging my gaze back to find her eyes glued to my erection that strained
against my jeans.

“
I
’
m
good,
”
I said, adjusting myself
again. I was so horny, even my touch egged the sucker on. My dick twitched as
Campbell started to reach out to touch it.

“
Shower NOW,
”
I commanded as I took
another step back and out of her reach. My breathing heavy as I fought for
control.
Down boy!

“
Join me?
”
asked Campbell.
Fuck.
That
question never got old. I loved when she was bold like that, letting me know
she wanted me as much as I wanted her.
Damn.

“
You go,
”
I croaked. Her shoulders
slumped in disappointment as she nodded her head. I walked over blocking her
path to the bathroom as I lifted her chin, bringing her rich chocolate eyes to
mine.
“
Not
because I don
’
t want to.
”
And boy did I want.

“
Rain check?
”
she questioned as her eyes
lit up.

“
Go.
”
My non-answer not going
unnoticed by Campbell. She shook her head as I stepped out of her way. I
smacked her ass as she passed me, which earned me a squeal but got her moving.
Sunshine gave me one last look and a wink before closing the door. When I heard
the shower start I went back outside to wait for my brothers. A million
thoughts of why that, this, was wrong ran through my head.  I tried everything
to not picture Campbell naked and wet just ten steps away. I failed miserably!
