LUST: A Bad Boy and Amish Girl Romance (The Brody Bunch Book 2) (24 page)

O
h
, this girl. Laurel. She didn’t have any idea what she was in for, standing in the doorway like she was Catwoman, giving me that sexy, red-lipped smirk.

She had no idea that she was turning me on in ways I hadn’t felt in fucking
years
. And she was gonna pay for it.

Box of condoms in my hand, I turned toward her and devoured her with my eyes. Those beautiful legs; that perky little ass; breasts just perfectly sized to fit in my mouth; that gorgeous, swan-white neck I couldn’t wait to bite; and most of all those lips, full and red. I wanted them smashed on mine; I wanted to see them around my cock.

Laurel looked down at the condoms in my hand and raised an eyebrow, her smirk growing. “Just sliding straight for home, huh? No warming up the engine for you?”

Slowly, shoulders squared, I walked across the room toward her, keeping my gaze locked on hers. Her smirk faded with every step, melting into a curious, startled heat. I stopped just in front of her in the doorway and leaned my tall frame over her face.

Hot breath on the side of her neck, I said, “Get on the couch.”

Laurel shivered and let out a breath. “W-What?”

“I said, get on the couch.”

She looked up and met my eyes, and I could feel it was a test. A challenge. She was looking for something. After a few moments, she blinked and moved past me obediently, sinking down into the faded black leather.

I closed and locked the green room door, aware that Laurel was watching me with hungry eyes. It only made me harder for her. When I moved back to the couch, I stopped in front of her for just a moment, enjoying the view of her face hovering so close to my dick. There would be time for that later, though. There was only one thing I wanted right now.

My lips swallowed the gasp of surprise she let out when I dropped to my knees to press them up against her own. Our kissing quickly became heated as we tried to devour one another, and her hands grasped at my shirt, desperately trying to pull it up and over my head. Instead of helping her, I pushed her against the couch with one hand and used my other to fumble for the fastener on her tight black jeans.

Her kiss was so hungry, and as hard as I pushed against her she kept pulling me closer. Her passion turned me on in ways I hadn’t felt in a long fucking time, causing my cock to ache against the jeans confining it.

Her pants finally open, I pulled away from her mouth long enough to wriggle them off her beautiful legs and become a pool of fabric on the floor. My lips returned to her flesh, causing her to writhe and gasp in response. She wanted this as much as I did.

I kissed my way up her body until my lips were on hers again and one hand firmly kneading her breasts. Laurel bit my lip and ran her hands down my body until I could feel them near my dick, trying to get my jeans open.

I swatted Lauren’s hand away with one of my own and shifted my hips out of her grasp. I squeezed her left tit tightly in my hand until she let out a little squeal against my mouth.

“Not yet,” I said in a low growl against her lips. “I’ll take my dessert first.”

The look in Laurel’s eyes set me on fire. She smiled, her lips still red from both her lipstick and my kisses. Without another word I leaned back on my knees and wrapped my hands around her slender hips, reaching underneath to cup her perfect ass. I brought my face close to her pussy while my hands rubbed and enjoyed her flesh. She moaned and wiggled under my touch.

I yanked Laurel’s panties down over her ass and thighs, holding back just enough to ensure that the delicate fabric held together. She was all too happy to help me get them off her ankles. With one last aching kiss, I pushed her back into the couch before making my way back down to the sweet prize between her legs. Her folds were neatly manicured, with a tiny tuft of pale blonde hair that matched the style on her head. I felt my dick throb at the sight of it; a perfect little marshmallow on top of a sundae. Out of the corner of my eye I barely noticed the dark ink of a tattoo against her thigh, but next to the perfection that was her pussy, I didn’t care enough to investigate further.

From outside the room in the club, the teen hardcore band began their set, smashing into a sloppy, old-school cut that rattled the walls. It was good timing, too. As soon as my mouth lowered onto Laurel’s gorgeous pussy, she started crying out loud enough that everyone in the bar would have heard her otherwise. But now her voice saying my name was just part of the din, and the mixture of hearing the two made me rock hard and eager to take this beautiful woman completely.

I lapped at her folds like I was starving, sinking my tongue inside her before adding two thick fingers along with it. Her hips bucked against me as they massaged inside her, and when I felt them bottom out completely, I bent and licked at her sensitive clit with flat, even strokes. Laurel’s whole body tightened up in pleasure, grasping at the hair on my head, pushing my face harder against her aching wetness.

I sucked at her clit until she came hard on my fingers, her body writhing, pulsing underneath me. Gently I thrust them between her wet, sensitive, lips a few more times, enjoying the feel of her post-orgasm trembles. When she was finally still, I slipped my fingers out and cleaned one off with my mouth.

The other, I offered to her. Laurel smiled as I leaned up toward her on the couch, her hair already a mess, eyes and skin glowing. She took the finger I put to her lips without hesitation and sucked. I groaned as the sensation raced down to my dick, begging to take its place.

“You’re a dirty girl, aren’t you?” I said against her ear, so she could hear me over the music.

Laurel’s smile was wicked. She pulled my face down into a ravenous kiss, and ran a hand down my body, squeezing my dick hard enough to draw a groan from my throat.

“Why don’t you fuck me and find out?” she said.

If that wasn’t a solid invitation, I didn’t know what was. I growled at her to remove her shirt while I stood up and all but tore off my jeans, finally releasing my diamond-hard cock from the confinement of pants and boxers. My body mass was put on the old fashioned way—no juicing for me, and no loss to my virility that went with it. Laurel’s eyes widened as they devoured the sight of my cock, eight inches long, but thick and solid. I gave myself a few strokes and watched her lick her lips.

“Lay back,” I said, gesturing with my hand. “Open up those sweet legs.”

Laurel didn’t hesitate. She stretched out her beautiful body on the black leather couch and dangled one of her legs on the tall back, beckoning me. Her pussy still glowed with wetness from her orgasm. As I rolled on a condom, she reached down with her fingers and gently massaged her clit. The very sight of that made me swallow hard. I needed to get inside this girl. Now.

I climbed on top of Laurel and rubbed my cock up and down her wet slit, teasing, as I leaned over and took her breasts in my mouth one at a time. She melted under my touch, her head rolling as if she were no longer in command of her muscles, yet her hands seem to have a mind of their own. They grasped at my shoulders, pulling me forward, begging me to enter her. Cock in one hand, I positioned it at her entrance and leaned up over her face so I could watch her expression the moment I pushed inside.

“Fuck me,” she begged. My response was to push my cock into her pussy only a few inches, and her mouth opened in sweet surprise; women were never ready for the girth I had for them. Her back arched and head swung back at the sensation, and as it did I brought my mouth down to the skin on her neck and began to suck and nibble until I couldn’t take it anymore. I sank my teeth into her neck just as I drove the rest of my length into her wet core.

Laurel nails dug into my back as my cock filled her, her hips bucking up to meet me as they took my every inch. Her pussy felt incredible, and so did the way she lapped at my skin with her tongue and teeth, the way she grabbed my hair and my ass to drive me deeper inside of her. While the heavy sounds of hardcore rocked the walls of the club, I fucked Laurel against that couch until I was almost to the edge.

Without warning, I pulled out and lifted myself out of her arms. Her eyes flew open, and she made a soft sound of objection against my ear as my cock left her body too soon.

I put one hand around her neck and turned her face so I could growl right in her ear, “Turn around.”

Laurel shuddered under me and obeyed, twisting her body until she was on her knees, arms braced on the couch’s arm. She looked back in eagerness, ass wiggling an unspoken invitation to return. I held her hips still and sunk my face into her slit again, lapping up the wetness my cock had brought out. Her taste was a sweet nectar that I needed one more draw of before I continued. As soon as I satisfied myself with that, I moved back to my knees behind her and, in one fluid motion, drove the entire length of my cock inside her pussy so hard that she collapsed on the couch until her face was on the leather.

Even over the music, I could hear Laurel screaming my name as I fucked her from behind. Her pussy felt so incredible, her body so warm and perfect. I hunched over her like a dog in heat and held her close to my chest while I thrust inside her, and she turned her face to meet mine, her breath pulsing against my skin.

When her strained whisper told me she was about to cum, that was all it took to send me over the edge. Arms wrapped tight around her body, I drove deep into Laurel as her pussy muscles contracted around me, pulling us both into sweet oblivion. She milked me into the condom at the same time she shuddered underneath me. I didn’t realize it until later, but it was the first time I’d ever cum at the same time as someone else.

We lay there, bodies soaked in sweat, panting like wolves as the hardcore song died down and the muffled sound of the crowd cheering came through the walls.

Laurel nuzzled against the side of my face and let out a little laugh. “I hope they’re standing, because you deserve the ovation.”

I
t felt
like I had been kissing Noah for years, and I still didn’t want to stop.

The feel of his rock-hard body pressed up against mine made my skin light up like a sky full of fireworks. He grinded against me as I leaned on the driver’s side door of my rental car, his big hands cupped around my jaw. Our lips were swollen and my lipstick was gone hours before, but it was like we couldn’t pull away. His bulge pushed promisingly against my still-sensitive pussy, and it took everything I had not to beg him to fuck me right there in the parking lot. But I wouldn’t stop myself from pushing my hands up inside his shirt to touch his taut muscles again. Skin molten-hot under my fingers, Noah groaned into my mouth and bit my lip between his teeth.

“You’re a hungry little thing, aren’t you?” he said in a breathless growl.

“Are you complaining?” I replied, running the tip of my tongue across his lips.

Noah laughed low and sexy. He rubbed his denim-clad erection hard against me. “Not yet.” His kisses devoured me like a tidal wave. “You have to come back tomorrow.”

Cocking my head, I said, “Do I? You think you fuck good enough to be bossing me around, huh?”

The smile fell from Noah’s face, and for a second I panicked inside that I had pissed him off. Instead, he reached one of his big, tattooed hands down between my legs and sawed it mercilessly against my pussy. My body nearly collapsed under his touch. I gripped hard on his strong shoulders and pushed my hips up to meet his hand.

Noah leaned down. His lips hovered right above mine. “Are you complaining?” he whispered.

That rebel part of me wanted to lie to him, but I couldn’t. He stared at me with his hard, blue eyes, daring me to challenge him. Daring me to say anything to stop him. His fondling was making me wet all over again, and I whimpered before I could help it. Noah’s smile was wicked and victorious.

He kissed me and sucked my bottom lip, rubbing purposely with his fingertips over my clit, pushing harder and faster for just long enough to make me moan into his mouth. As soon as I did, he pulled his hand away, and suddenly, it was all I could do not to beg for it back.

“Tomorrow night?” he said again.

I nodded, biting my lip. “Tomorrow night.” Gripping his shirt tight, I pulled myself up to his face for another deep kiss. “But I gotta go get some sleep. My boss will be pissed if I’m late again.”

Noah went quiet for a moment, searching my face and body. He wasn’t stepping away. I swallowed against a tight throat, nervous—what if he asked to come home with me? I couldn’t bring him back to the fucking hotel… but in that moment, I wasn’t sure I could have told him no.

I let out a quiet, relieved breath when he finally began to step backwards. Fingers entwined in mine, he pulled away until only our hands were touching, and then they finally fell apart as well. There was something almost sweet about it. “Well, you’re definitely going to need your rest, sugar.” The way he ran his thumb across his lips when he said it made me shiver.

“I’ll see you tomorrow night,” I said with a nod. “Promise.”

Noah smiled. He gave me one last longing look, winked, and turned for his big black truck. I waited until he roared down the empty highway and out of sight before getting into my car and starting back to the hotel.

The city was quiet and dark, a perfect soothing drive after the heated evening. The night clerk at the hotel lobby desk gave me polite nod as I passed for the elevators. I sent Steve a text to let him know I’d made it back safe, but didn’t give him any details—no doubt he was asleep, anyway.

Cranking the shower’s temperature up as hot as I could stand it, I washed off not only the sweat and grime of the club, but the smell of my incredible sex with Noah, as well. Just the thought of his name sent me into the stratosphere, and suddenly I could feel his hands all over me, his hard chest pressed against mine, his big, hard dick driving into me until all I could do was scream his name. I leaned against the shower wall under the stream of water and brought myself to another rocking climax with my own fingers, thinking of Noah and wishing they were his.

It wasn’t until I fell into the soft hotel bed, completely spent and halfway to sleep, that rational Laurel actually made another appearance in my mind. Through the cloud of lust that seemed to exist around Noah’s image came her shrill, but honest, voice.

You may have just fucked a murderer.

I
t was
a good thing I’ve never had to learn to keep a regular schedule. It made things easier when all I wanted to do was lay in bed all morning and dream about the tattooed chest and hard dick of a certain rock god—especially when I’d been up half the night riding that dick.

No sooner had my sleepy fingertips wandered down my belly when a knock came at the door, followed by a sarcastic Spanish accent. “Oh, lady, I have your room service!”

The image of Noah in my mind washed away like a cloud of smoke and I growled to myself. “Goddammit, Steve.” Then, louder, toward the door: “Gimme a fucking sec!” It took me a moment to find a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. Steve stood outside in the hallway holding a giant tray stacked with food from the morning breakfast buffet. Suddenly, I didn’t feel so mad.

“Oh, in that case, yes, come in,” I said as I opened the door for him.

Steve scoffed and walked past me to the tiny circular table in the far corner. “ ‘Hey, thanks Steve! You’re a real pal, bringing me breakfast after I spent the night getting drunk and having fun at a show without you.’ ”

I laughed at the way he tried to imitate my voice. “See, we’re so good together, you know exactly what’s in my heart. I don’t even have to say it.” I dove straight for the plastic cup of black coffee and drank heartily, then reached for the bacon.

Steve settled in one of the big plush chairs with a round back and took a steaming lid off a plate of waffles. “Got fucked, huh?”

Mouthful of bacon, I could only glare at him. How the hell could he tell? I’d showered—this mop of blonde mess was legitimate bed head.

Steve just laughed. “That
was
the plan, wasn’t it?”

“That wasn’t my plan!” I insisted.

Steve waved a hand at me as he searched for a packet of syrup. “Eh, don’t sweat it so much, it’s a job. The important thing is you made contact, and just in time.”

“Just in time? What’s that supposed to mean?”

Dramatic as ever, he had to wait till I asked. Steve got a cocky grin on his face and pulled out his smart phone. He tapped around on the screen a few seconds before he handed it to me and went back to his waffles.

A video interview began to play. The reporter was from Roc Press, one of the larger music outlets in the nation; I vaguely recognized him from some exclusive interview he snagged a few years ago with a front man accused of hiring a hitman for his own wife.

Guess this guy had the right connections for exclusive interviews, because I did not expect to see the man he was interviewing: Duke Rogers, lead guitarist of Cut Up Angels. Noah’s lead guitarist. Tall and lean, with a baby face and soft, blonde hair, Duke had a different kind of charisma and attractiveness than his singer, and for years, rumors had flown that the two men hated each other behind the scenes.

Suddenly, those rumors seemed pretty fucking likely.

“I’m sitting here today with lead guitarist and back-up vocalist Duke Rogers, speaking for the first time since the tragedy at Sun Fest. Duke, thanks for being here today. I know it’s been a trying time for your band.”

Duke shifted in his chair, but his face never changed. He always seemed to wear this same half-ugly smirk, like he didn’t take anything seriously. It didn’t sit right in my gut. “Thank you for having me, Bryan,” he said in his thick, drawling New Orleans accent. “It’s been a nightmare, that’s for sure.”

“Now, we have to get this out of the way first,” said the interviewer, reading off some papers. “To clarify, you are still unable to directly address what happened at the Fest, correct?”

“That’s correct,” said Duke with a nod. “Under the legal instruction of our record label.”

“To recap for those viewers who somehow haven’t heard, a festival-goer, now identified as Richard Williams, was killed during the set of Duke’s band, Cut Up Angels. Williams made his way around security team members and climbed on-stage, where he was assaulted by lead singer Noah Hardy and pushed off-stage. He later died as a result of his injuries.” The interviewer turned from the camera to look back at Duke. “What
can
you tell us about this, Duke? What are you going through right now?”

“Like I said, Bryan, I can’t say a lot,” said Duke with a modest hand wave. “I can tell you that the band is dealing with all of this the best they can. But I have to take a different approach with how I deal with it.”

“Care to elaborate?”

Something in Duke’s voice made me feel nervous. Without taking my eyes off the phone, I found the seat across the table from Steve and lowered myself into it.

“Bryan, I’ve decided to embark on a solo career. I love my band and what we’ve achieved, but who can say what the future holds now? None of us know what will ultimately happen to Noah—legally or otherwise. I’m an artist. I have to look out for my craft,” said Duke.

“That’s my favorite part,” said Steve from across the table, mouthful of waffle. “You can practically see him smelling his own farts.”

“Shhh!” I hissed.

“Does this mean the rumors of Cut Up Angels breaking up are true?” asked Bryan.

“I can’t say what’s going to happen to the band,” said Duke. “I can’t see the future, and we are still under contract for the time being. But like I said, I’m just trying to be true to my own vision. I’ve been thinking about this for a while and it seems the universe has laid open this path for me.”

Ugh, did anyone actually
believe
this douche? Did he believe himself?

“It’s difficult not to see this timing as you abandoning your band at its time of need,” said Bryan, a surprising challenge I didn’t expect. Yet there was something so scripted in how their exchange was delivered that I couldn’t swallow it. Would not be the first time a rock star had used a softball media contact to make himself look good.

“I’m sure plenty of critics will have things to say about that,” said Duke. “They have never shied away from telling us what they think about us, about Noah—about anything. I can handle what they dish out.” He took a pause like he was gathering courage, but again, it all looked too perfect. “What I can’t handle, though, is betrayal from within. And that’s why I have to strike out on my own.”

“Betrayal? By whom?”

Duke sighed. “I can’t get into details, Bryan. Suffice it to say I am just damn tired of certain members of this organization passing the buck and inventing insane delusions and stories instead of taking responsibility for their actions.”

“Inventing stories?” I said. He had to be talking about Noah—but what story? Steve just shrugged at me with raised eyebrows while he chewed.

The interviewer tried to get Duke to elaborate, but it seemed like the guitarist had said all that he had planned to say on the subject. The rest of the interview was basically a promotion for Duke’s new project, as-yet-unnamed, but with the polite reminder that he was one of the key songwriters of Cut Up Angels. It was another dig at Noah, whom most people assumed had little to do with anything but the vocals. A glance at their liner notes told otherwise, but Duke was clearly far more media-savvy than any of us had realized.

I sat back in the chair and listened to Steve eating. Something dark and dreadful was brewing in my gut.

“So,” he said, “thoughts?”

I shrugged. “What we get has to be big enough to overshadow that exclusive. That was a hell of a get.”

“My first thought, too,” said Steve, scooping eggs into his mouth. “Will it be?”

Noah. When I used to think of him, all I saw was concert footage, publicity photo, or paparazzi flash bulb versions of him. But something was different now. I felt his breath, his hands, his lips. I saw him in the mosh pit. It was disorienting. It was making it difficult to think clearly about my job.

I cleared my throat before I answered Steve. “Yes. Look, a man is dead, and there’s practically no question Noah Hardy killed him. The question now is why, and we’re going to figure that out. And then
Slipstream
is going to publish it before anybody else in this fucking industry has a clue. I’ve gotten in with Noah. It’s just a matter of time now.”

Steve grinned suggestively. “Yeah?”

“Hell, this Duke announcement probably helps us. Every other rag will be busy trying to speculate on that bullshit.”

“And while they’re distracted, we kick ‘em in the dick with the first exclusive words of Noah Hardy about being a goddamn murderer.”

“
Alleged
,” I said with a sarcastic wag of my finger. “Press ethics, dear Steve.”

“Right, alleged,” he said. “This is seriously going to send your stock through the roof, Laurel.”

He meant well, but Steve was cutting open old wounds that instantly sent poison through my mood. “Shit, it better, or else I’m gonna be serving you coffee at the lobby Starbucks by next year.”
