DARK FALL (A Back Down Devil MC Romance Novel) (16 page)

Kaity placed the condom to Erik
’
s tip. She sheathed him with her
hand, rolling the condom down, her hand barely able to grip Erik
’
s thickness. When the condom was
on, Kaity lightly ran her hand down his leg.

Erik climbed the bed and was
between Kaity
’
s legs. His
thumbs grazed her nipples and then his hands grabbed Kaity
’
s arms and put them above her
head. His hands slid up until he touched her hands. Their fingers interlocked
and Kaity felt her heart swell. That was the exact moment she knew she needed
Erik off her. This wasn
’
t
sex. This wasn
’
t a quick
fuck. This wasn't even passion. It was beyond it. Kaity knew the second Erik
thrust into her, she was going to fall for him.

No, no, no
…

Erik
’
s
hands gripped tight. He placed his cock to Kaity
’
s
welcoming body. He applied pressure and started to enter her. Kaity groaned and
told herself to shake her head.

Tell him no. Tell him to get off
…

Kaity couldn
’
t control herself. Erik thrust once and sank into
her. A second hard thrust connected his body to hers. He was as deep as deep could
be. Kaity felt herself clenching at him, warm, wet, tight, and ready to
explode. Erik lowered his face to Kaity
’
s,
his nose touching hers, his teeth gritting as he grunted. Kaity let out a shaky
breath and thrust up, wanting more.

Erik slowly pulled back and thrust
again.

It was so good.

Kaity wanted to hold him. She
wanted to claw him. She kept his mouth near hers. They randomly kissed.
Sometimes she kissed his cheek. Sometimes Erik
’
s
tongue touched her cheek before she moved her head and kissed him.

The sex was more than amazing. Even
when Kaity felt herself beginning to orgasm, it wasn
’
t enough. It wasn
’
t
just about finishing at that point. It meant so much more. With each thrust
from Erik, Kaity moaned. She was lost in him and if this was what waited for
her with Erik, she never wanted to return to reality.

“
Yes,
”
she managed to whimper as Erik
ran his nose along her neck.

He inched down more and more until
his lips ran over her right nipple. Her body tightened and tingled everywhere.
Erik grunted, fighting through the tightness between Kaity
’
s legs. She had never
experienced climaxes back to back so quickly before, at least not until Erik
rolled her nipple between his teeth. That tingling sensation mixed with the
stinging pain was all Kaity
’
s
body could handle. She curled up and opened her mouth to cry out. She managed a
weak groan before all the air was sucked out of her body. Kaity closed her
eyes. She gently bit Erik
’
s
shoulder, and he held her as she came. It could have lasted a few seconds or a
few minutes, but when it was done, Kaity fell back to the bed, trying to catch
her breath.

But Erik wasn
’
t done yet.

The thrusting continued. Kaity
’
s body moved. Her breasts
bounced. Her hands turned and found comfort gripping the sheets. She dug her heels
into the bed and lifted herself for him. He was going so fast and deep. Sweat
glistened on Erik
’
s
beautiful body. He looked slippery and sexy, smelling like man and sex. Kaity
couldn
’
t believe what she
felt next.

Another climax
…

Three in a row seemed impossible,
but it was happening. Her pussy tightened as the intense pleasure continued to
mount throughout her body. Erik then moved up, his hands holding Kaity
’
s sides, his thumbs right under
her breasts. It gave Kaity perhaps the hottest sight in the world. She watched
Erik fuck her. A few more hard thrusts and he came deep inside her. He grunted
each time his cock throbbed. Kaity felt every pulse of his release.

The next few minutes were silent as
Erik remained inside Kaity. She slowly released her hold on the sheets and had
no clue what to expect next. Part of her wanted to hug Erik and the other part of
her wanted to get him hard again so they could keep going. She
’
d never enjoyed sex so much
before. Erik was everything opposite of Brad's disgusting, drunk body plopped
on top her.

When Erik moved from her body, she
cried out again. He stood at the end of the bed and stared at her.

“
Tomorrow
we will get your car,
”
he
said.
“
It has to be done by
now. If not, I
’
ll fucking
buy you a new one.
”

Kaity struggled to sit up in the
bed. She gushed everywhere, her toes still curled, the tingling pleasure unable
to comprehend what Erik had just said.

“
Erik
…
what are you
…”

“
I
’
m taking a shower,
”
he said.
“
Alone. When I come out of the
bathroom, don
’
t talk to me.
Don
’
t say a fucking word.
You heard what I just said. I
’
m
sorry, but you
’
re a rat. I
let a fucking rat into the clubhouse. That alone could cost me my patch.
”

“
I
’
m not a rat,
”
Kaity said as her voice
cracked. She felt so exposed, sitting there naked, thinking she and Erik had
just shared something special.
“
I
helped
…”

“
Let
it the fuck go,
”
Erik said.
“
Look at me. Look at my
face. Look at my life. I
’
m
going to die seeking my own revenge. I
’
m
not going to let you do the same.
”

“
What
do I want revenge on?
”
Kaity
yelled.

“
Yourself,
”
Erik said.
“
That
’
s why you took that bullet. You want to die, babe.
So go find a way to die.
”

Erik disappeared into the bathroom
and Kaity sat in disbelief. She didn
’
t
want to believe a word coming from Erik
’
s
mouth, even if it was all truth.

She just thought for a second she
had someone to share the pain and doubt with. Someone to care about. Maybe
someone to love.

nineteen.

I
’
m just a fucking biker
…
my life is Back Down Devil
…
my blood is for the MC
…
my soul is for the open road
…
my death waits alongside me, a
passenger waiting to take over
…

The water hit Erik
’
s body and no matter how much he
turned up the hot water, it still felt cold. This connection with Kaity was too
much. And now she confessed she had been a rat for some detective who used her
and ordered her around and then fucked her whenever he wanted to.

Erik made a fist and slammed it off
the tile. He wanted to kill everything and everyone, including himself. This
shit couldn
’
t happen
anymore. Instead of thrusting into Kaity he should have been out there looking
for the person who tried to kill him. Instead of hiding in a bedroom, sharing
feelings and emotions, he should have been on his motorcycle, roaring like dark
thunder, seeking out those who tried - and failed - to kill him.

In the shower, Erik looked down at
his own body. He thought of all the places Kaity
’
s
hands had touched him. Invisible marks all over his body. His cock throbbed for
a moment and Erik gripped himself. He wanted to go back to bed and have her again.
There wasn
’
t enough of
Kaity to have. That scared him. He never used and reused a woman before. The relievers
knew their place and job. But Kaity wasn
’
t
a reliever. She was just something else. Something special.

She
’
s a fucking rat, bro. A
…
rat
…

Erik shut his eyes tight and forced
all the thoughts away. He turned the water off. He dried, dressed, and stood in
the dark bedroom. He looked at Kaity's shadowy figure. She was on her right
side, but he knew she wasn
’
t
sleeping. Yet he got into the bed next to her and put his hands behind his
head. He stared at the dark ceiling and questioned why he hadn
’
t been killed that day the bomb
went off. All of this shit right now would have been irrelevant.

The next morning Erik woke and
threw himself from the bed. He stumbled to a dresser and caught himself. He ran
his hands over his face and looked back. Of course Kaity was in the bed. She
looked at him and her eyes were sad.

Not my problem.

“
Eat
and then we leave,
”
Erik
said.

“
Erik,
”
Kaity whispered.
“
Can
’
t we talk?
”

Erik grabbed his leather cut and
put it on. He shook his head. There was no talking. There was no more bullshit.

“
Ten
minutes,
”
he said as he
stood at the door.
“
If not,
I send Blaine in with a couple other guys and they take you out of here.
”

“
Erik
…”

But he was already gone.

Erik left the room and went down
the hallway with his hands in fists and his heart feeling like it was going to
just quit. At the corner of the hall, Erik stopped and pulled his gun out. He
put it to his chin and turned around. If he shot now, he
’
d spray his brains all over the hallway to the main
part of the clubhouse.

Do it, man. Just fucking do it.

“
Yo,
brother.
”

Erik put the gun down and turned.
Blaine stood with a mug in his left hand. With his right hand he slapped
himself in the face a few times.

“
Blaine,
”
Erik said.

“
Miller
wants to talk,
”
Blaine
said.
“
Heard Gaige and Nate
saying something about information. Might be good for us.
”

“
Yeah,
”
Erik said.
“
I
’
ll
be there soon. Have to take care of something on my own first. I
’
ll be back soon though, bro. And
this shit is fucking getting settled once and for all. I
’
m done waiting.
”

“
Whoa,
whoa,
”
Blaine said.

He put an arm out and Erik grabbed
it. He twisted and Blaine
’
s
coffee mug went flying through the air. Erik put Blaine
’
s face to the wall.

“
I
’
m not fucking around,
”
Erik growled.

Blaine turned and broke the hold.
He grabbed Erik by the throat, surprising him. He walked Erik to a wall and
pressed harder. Erik gagged for a second and then Blaine started to lift him.
All air was cut from Erik
’
s
body.

“
You
want to fucking die, man?
”
Blaine asked.
“
Then die.
You really want this?
”

Erik nodded.
“
Yyyeeesss
…”

“
Good,
”
Blaine said.
“
I
’
m
sick of your fucking shit here. Got it? You think we all don
’
t want the same, bro? You think
we all don
’
t get it? Fuck
you, Erik. Fuck you, brother.
”

“
Kkkiilllmmeee
…”

Erik watched Blaine
’
s lip curl and his eyes widen.
If there was one guy who had the balls and insane mind to kill someone in the
club, it was Blaine. Maybe that
’
s
why Erik had been poking at him for so long. To get to this moment.

Erik felt himself getting dizzy.
The room spun, his body desperate for air.

“
Blaine!
”
a voice yelled.

“
Nnnooo
…
,
”
Erik said.

It came to deaf ears.

A fist connected with Blaine
’
s face, sending him spinning,
releasing his hold on Erik
’
s
throat. Both men fell to the ground.

“
What
the fuck is this?
”
Gaige
boomed.

“
Just
talking,
”
Blaine said as he
wiped blood from his lip.

“
Erik?
”
Gaige asked.

“
Nothing,
”
Erik said.

He held his throat. He tried to
stand and stumbled. Gaige grabbed him and Erik threw an elbow, almost hitting
Gaige.

“
Fuck,
”
Gaige yelled and jumped back.
“
What the fuck is wrong with you?
”

“
I
have to do something,
”
Erik
said.
“
Personal. Then I
’
ll be back.
”

“
You
don
’
t ride alone,
”
Gaige said.

“
Like
fuck I won
’
t.
”

“
I
’
ll go,
”
Blaine said.

“
No,
”
Gaige said.
“
I
’
m
going. My orders. Blaine stay here. Gather everyone else up.
”

Erik stood almost nose to nose with
Gaige. VP or not, Erik wasn
’
t
in the mood to take shit.

“
I
’
m not giving up on you,
”
Gaige said.
“
And I
’
m not going to kill you. I
’
ll ride right with you into the fire, brother. If
that
’
s where we need to go,
let
’
s go.
”

Erik walked into Gaige. He thought
about throwing a punch but instead let out a breath.

“
I
’
m leaving in ten minutes,
”
Erik said.
“
Taking Kaity to get her fucking
car. It has to be fixed by now. I want to ask those two assholes if they
remember anything else about the car auction. I can
’
t wait around anymore, Gaige.
”

“
We
’
re not,
”
Gaige said.
“
We
never have been. Time is just
…”

“
Fucked,
”
Blaine called out.
“
It
’
s
all fucked.
”

Erik looked back at Blaine. Blaine
nodded and smiled. All was right between them now. They were brothers, their
bond deep for the MC.

Erik nodded back at Blaine.
“
Yeah, it
’
s all fucked.
”

Erik stepped forward and one of his
heavy boots stepped on a piece of Blaine
’
s
coffee mug. It made it
pop
sound and Erik kept walking.

Ten minutes later, Erik sat on his
motorcycle. Gaige was next to him. Their engines were fired up, rumbling into
the beautiful morning.

And speaking of beautiful
…
the door opened and Kaity came
walking out. Her hair was still a little messy from sleep and sex. She ran a
hand through her hair, tossing it back. It fell forward right away. The sight
drove Erik
’
s heart insane.
He knew if he kept Kaity around everything would get worse. Someone would get
hurt, definitely. If she was used to sleeping in her car, running and hiding,
then that
’
s where she
belonged.

Erik handed Kaity his helmet. She
took it and stood there for a few seconds.

“
I
don
’
t have time,
”
Erik said.

Kaity nodded. She put the helmet on
and then leaned in and kissed Erik
’
s
cheek. The unexpected move made Erik close his eyes. He swallowed down the
emotion that came with the kiss. He then felt Kaity
’
s lips to his ear.

“
I
’
m not mad at you,
”
she said.
“
I never will be.
”

Kaity got on the motorcycle and
without a signal, Erik took off. The engine roared, the sound bouncing through
the lot. Gaige hurried right behind him and they headed to the shitty auto
garage to solve some problems.

The ride felt like an eternity.
Erik didn
’
t need to tempt
himself into thinking about the regret of his decisions. He regretted most of
the things he did the moment they happened. Like not killing himself before he
met Kaity. Or not killing himself this morning. He regretted hiding his
feelings for Kaity and the urge to send her away. He regretted allowing his
body to fight through the pain and injury of the bomb. That would have been the
honorable death. To go down by being murdered
…
that was the way to do it
…

Erik turned down the road that led
to the auto garage. The shithole place was mostly hidden. He stopped and Gaige
came right up next to him.

“
Get
off,
”
Erik said after
killing the engine.

Kaity climbed off.

“
What
’
s the
…”
Gaige started to say.

Erik got off the motorcycle and
walked toward the open garage bays. He heard Gaige finish his question but
ignored him. There was no real plan. Plans were worth shit. This was about
action.

Jack stepped from the garage bay,
wiping his hands. His face was still beat up and swollen from their previous
encounter.

“
Hey,
”
Jack said.

“
Came
to check on the car,
”
Erik
said.

“
Oh,
yeah. That
’
s good to go,
man.
”

“
Who
is it?
”
Willy
’
s voice boomed. He rolled out
from under a car and sat up. His eyes went wide.
“
Oh.
Hey there.
”

“
I
told you to call me when the car was done,
”
Erik said.

“
Just
finished it,
”
Jack said.

“
Well,
yesterday we did,
”
Willy
said.
“
Got caught up in
other shit and I wanted to take it out for a test drive.
”
Willy walked toward Erik.
“
Hate to have her take it without making sure it ran
perfectly."

“
Fixed
that window?
”
Erik asked.

“
Of
course,
”
Jack said.

Erik grabbed Jack by the shirt and
pulled him close.
“
I also
wanted to know if you remembered anything else about that car auction.
”

“
The
car auction?
”
Willy asked.
“
Come on, man, we told you everything.
”

Erik looked at Willy but didn't
loosen his grip on Jack
’
s
shirt.
“
Wasn
’
t sure if some details slipped
between the cracks. You two seemed balls deep in family issues.
”

Willy hung his head.

“
There
’
s nothing else,
”
Jack said.
“
I swear on it.
”
