The Last Riders - First Four Votes (59 page)

Knox’s hand slid into the front of her swimsuit as he began to rub her pussy. “Still sore?” Knox asked his mouth going to her neck.

“No,” Diamond moaned.

Knox undid the swimsuit top that was too small and was cutting into her flesh.

“Knox give me my top back,” Diamond protested, feeling decadent as she sat half naked in the hot tub.

Knox threw it over the side of the hot tub. “It’s too small. I could see your nipples anyway.” His hands continued to play with her while his lips teased with tiny kisses.

The opening door was lost on Diamond as his finger began plunging inside of her. She lifted dazed eyes when she heard a noise at the side of the tub. Rider was removing the towel he had wrapped around his hips and his hair was wet, so he must have taken a shower.

“Mind if I join you?” Rider asked, staring at Diamond’s naked breasts.

“No,” Knox said.

“Yes,” Diamond groaned as Knox thrust another finger deep within her while sucking on her neck. His free hand took a breast in his hand, lifting it out of the water. Rider slid into the tub, moving towards them.

“Knox?”

“Relax, lean back against me,” Knox coaxed.

Helplessly, Diamond leaned back against Knox’s chest, exposing even more of her breasts to Rider’s gaze. Diamond’s hips twisted on Knox’s fingers, trying to bring herself to a climax at the same time that small whimpers escaped her.

“Shh… baby, we’re going to take care of you.” Knox’s fingers searched deeper, but still didn’t fill that aching void that wanted his cock.

When Rider’s lips dropped to her breast, sucking a nipple deep into his mouth, Diamond almost jumped off Knox’s lap, but his hand on her pussy held her still. Rider’s teeth bit at her nipple, turning it into a hardened nub. When he removed his lips, his fingers squeezed tightly as his mouth went to her other breast.

“Feels good, doesn’t it?” Knox asked.

Diamond didn’t answer and Rider took his mouth away, each hand now torturing her nipples until she reluctantly admitted, “Yes.”

“Good girl,” Knox murmured against her throat. Rider removed his hands, going to sit on the side of the hot tub. His cock wasn’t as large as Knox’s, but was wider. Diamond watched as his hand began sliding up and down the length while he watched Knox bring her to the brink of an orgasm.

Knox stood up and Diamond shivered as the cool air hit her hot skin. With a hand on her back, he pushed her down until her hands rested on the side of the tub by Rider.

“Hand me a condom.” Rider reached over, grasping inside a drawer at the side of the tub and then handing Knox the requested condom.

“Knox, let’s go upstairs.” Diamond tried to regain what little sanity she had left as she heard him tear open the condom and put it on.

“Diamond, this isn’t going to wait until we get upstairs,” Knox said as he notched his cock against her opening.

Knox’s cock slid deep with a hard shove of his hips. Diamond tried to arch up, but Rider’s hand on her back held her still as Knox’s hands grasped her hips for leverage to pump his hard length inside her. Diamond groaned as she felt the metal balls of his piercings rub against the sensitive flesh of her pussy.

Grabbing the side of the tub to prevent herself from falling, Diamond stood as Knox fucked her while Rider’s hand slid up and down on his cock. Diamond couldn’t help watching as a pearl of liquid escaped the head of his cock.

“You want his cock?” Diamond didn’t answer Knox, her desire was rising to the extent where she was losing control, driving her to do what before would have been unthinkable.

Then she felt Rider’s hand in her hair, tilting her head until his cock was within reach of her mouth. He stopped moving her towards, playing with her hair as he left the decision up to her.

Diamond opened her mouth, sliding his cock in. A hiss escaped Rider as she began to suckle his cock.

“Fuck,” Knox said as he surged against her. “Suck him hard. He likes it when you use your tongue.” Diamond followed his instructions, liking the taste of Rider and his gentle hand in her hair. Having him in her mouth made her feel naughty with Knox pounding into her from behind. Every fantasy that Diamond had played through her mind as both men moved within her. Rider’s legs splayed wider and Knox lifted her, making it easier to reach his cock without straining her neck, enabling her to take him deeper.

Her fingers went to his balls, stroking them while her tongue played with the head of his cock until she felt Rider take her hair in his hands and push her down further. Diamond began sliding her mouth up and down on him while her tongue teased the silky flesh. She felt his cock tighten just before he groaned his release into her mouth, gripping her hair tightly. When he finished she raised her head as Rider slid back down into the water, his mouth going to her nipple.

“Did you enjoy making Rider come?” Knox asked, thrusting high within her.

Diamond hesitated, but eventually admitted the truth to herself and them, “Yes.”

“You going to make me come now?” Knox grunted.

“Yes,” Diamond moaned.

“Then push that pussy back on my cock.” Diamond began moving back on him as hard as he was fucking her.

“God, it’s making me hard again watching you two fuck,” Rider moaned against her swollen nipple

“Once is all you’re getting tonight. You want pussy, go find one of the other women,” Knox said through gritted teeth.

“Damn. If you change your mind, let me know.” Rider pressed her nipple against his teeth, using his tongue. The tiny nip of pain rose her passion to an orgasm that had her moaning. Rider, feeling her shudders from climax, slid out of the tub and wrapped the towel around his hips before hurriedly leaving.

“I’ve got to find Jewell,” he said as he left.

Diamond groaned as she felt Knox thrust inside her, jerking as he came, driving her into another orgasm that she was afraid would make her pass out. She leaned her head on her hands that gripped the side of the hot tub, shaking.

Minutes later, reality returned with a rush of shame and recriminations. Diamond scrambled over the side of the tub, picking up the towel and wrapping it around her body. Her hands went to her hair, pushing the tangled mess from her face.

“Oh God, oh God. I did not just do that. I did not just do that!” Her voice was getting louder each time.

“Fuck.” Knox took off his condom, stepping out of the hot tub. “Calm down, Diamond.”

“That’s easy for you to say; this is normal for you. I don’t do shit like this. I am going to lose my license, and I just had sex with two men at the same time.” Diamond had never had an anxiety attack, yet she knew that was exactly where she was headed because of letting her attraction to Knox undermine everything she had worked for years to accomplish.

“You’re not going to lose your license.” Knox tried to reason with her, but it was a lost cause as she started to run to the bathroom for her clothes.

Knox grabbed her around the waist, picking her up and putting her wiggling body over his shoulder. Leaving the room, he went through the gym and up the stairs.

“Have you lost your mind; you’re naked and I am, too,” Diamond screeched.

Knox didn’t stop, just continued through the kitchen where Evie, Raci and Bliss stood with their mouths hanging open. As he carried her through the living room Winter, Beth, Razer and Viper turned from the bar to watch as he continued through the room and up the steps. Diamond buried her face in his back.

“I’m going to kill you for this, Knox. So help me, when you let me down I’m going to kick your ass,” Diamond threatened.

Knox stopped in the hallway, opening his door and carrying her into his bedroom. He stood her wiggling body on the floor by the bed.

“You going to calm down?” Knox asked.

“Fuck you!” Diamond screamed.

“That’s it.” Knox sat down on the side of the bed, pulling Diamond across his lap.

“What do you think you’re doing?” Her bottom was smacked with a large hand.

“Ouch.” Diamond said, hitting his leg with her fists.

“Are you going to calm down so that we can talk?”

“Go to hell!” Diamond tried to bite the side of his leg.

“Woman, you’re going to regret that.” His hand smacked her ass twice more. The swat on her bare bottom stung.

“You bastard.” Swat.

“I’m going to make you eat your nuts!” Swat.

“I’m going to be the one that pulls the switch when they fry your ass.” Swat. Swat. Swat.

“Got any more smart-ass remarks?” Knox’s clenched jaw showed his temper was under control, but he wasn’t going to put up with her hysterics.

“No.”

Knox lifted her up, sitting her on his lap facing him with her knees on the bed beside his hip. His hand buried in her hair, lifting her head so that he could hold her eyes with his own. “You ready to talk?”

“Am I going to get spanked again if I say no?” Diamond asked mutinously.

“Diamond...”

She drew in a deep breath, managing to get her riotous emotions back under control.

“Better?” he asked, a glint of amusement appearing in his eyes. “That’s some temper you have.”

“Yes,” Diamond answered both questions with one word.

“So I take it you were freaked out about Rider?”

Diamond threw him a look that doubted his intelligence.

“Careful, Diamond. How did I know that it would freak you out? You could have said no at any time. Do you think I wanted that from you?” Knox asked, obviously worried that she might have felt pressured.

“I didn’t think at all,” Diamond admitted.

“That’s the point; you enjoyed it. Don’t start that crap about feeling guilty for something that was what you wanted. We all enjoyed it; it was fucking great. I’ve never seen Rider get hard so fast.” Knox’s fingers went to her breasts, playing with her still red nipples.

“I shouldn’t have done it. It was crazy! I don’t act like that, Knox. I don’t fuck around with a lot of men. For me to have sex with you while blowing Rider is scaring me.”

“Diamond, you’re just letting go. Your body has demands that you’ve been pushing down, afraid to let loose. I’ve never seen a more uptight woman than you. Don’t feel bad about letting your sensuality loose; explore and find out what you want out of sex, experiment a little. You did admit you enjoyed taking Rider and me at the same time.” Diamond turned her face away, but Knox had her turning back to face him. “Don’t be ashamed of finding pleasure doing new things.”

“I’ll try.” She didn’t know how successful she would be, but it had happened and Knox was right, it had been great.

“Cool, then if you want him to join us again, he will. If you don’t, he won’t. It’s up to you.”

“Okay. But I already know I don’t want to do that again,” Diamond said, looking him firmly in the eyes.

“Whatever you decide to do, Diamond. I aim to please.” As Knox’s head dropped to the nipple he had been teasing with his fingertips, Diamond’s arms circled his thick neck, her hand turning so that her palms could lay flat against his bald head. The ball of his tongue’s piercing pressed against her sensitive nipple, sending a renewed sense of desire through her clenching pussy that was aching to be filled as if they hadn’t just fucked less than fifteen minutes ago.

Diamond felt Knox reach for a condom from his nightstand then he turned with her still on his lap until she lay on the bed with him between her thighs. He took less than a minute to expertly slide the condom over the piercings on his cock.

“I’m on the pill.” Diamond arched as he slid his covered cock into her warm pussy.

“I never fuck without a condom. I’ve already broken one of my rules for you,” Knox said, surging within her. His head went to the spot he preferred on her neck, right under her ear. She didn’t understand what he was talking about, however she lost track of their conversation as he began to fuck her.

She had wanted to feel his naked length inside her, but liked that he kept himself protected. Diamond gasped as she lost herself to his passion, returning to the place that only Knox could take her. She let her recriminations and doubts leave her, determined to spend the rest of the night in Neverland.

Tomorrow, reality would arrive soon enough.

K
nox dropped
her off at her apartment before the sun rose the next morning. She climbed off his bike, pausing before going to her apartment.

“Come here.” His arm went around her waist. “I’ll watch until you’re inside.”

“Okay.”

“Later.”

Diamond nodded her head, stepping away from his warm body.

She went up the short flight of steps to her apartment. Putting the key in the lock, she unlocked the door and turned on her lights then turned and waved to Knox, who waved back before leaving. Diamond went inside her apartment, locking the door behind her and then stared around the white, emotionless room.

She realized then that there was no going back to the vacuum she had turned her life into. Knox had awoken the emotions of desire she had buried deep within her that day she had caught her father cheating on her mother.

Going into her bedroom, she took off her clothes and went into the shower. She let the water get warm as she turned around and caught sight of her body in the full length mirror she kept on the back of the bathroom door. Her breasts and neck had faint marks Knox had left behind. He hadn’t been rough and had never caused her any pain, but the marks seemed to reinforce the possession he had taken over her body.

Turning away from the mirror, she got into the shower, hoping it would wake her up. She hadn’t slept much this weekend and she had a feeling it was going to be a long day.

T
he motorcycle drove steadily
up the mountain road, taking the curves at maximum speed. He passed Rosie’s bar on his way back to the clubhouse and the patrol car beginning to pull out of the parking lot. Seconds later, he saw the flashing blue lights in his rear view mirror. Slowing down, he pulled carefully off the road.

He turned off his motor as he watched the sheriff get out of his car. The thought struck him that he was walking slower and his face had become more lined since the last time he had seen him just last week.

“What are you doing out so late?” The sheriff greeted him with the gruff question.

“Couldn’t sleep.”

“Knox just passed ahead of you; something going on that I need to know about?” The sheriff always tried to stay alert to possible trouble involving The Last Riders.

“No.”

The sheriff stared at him silently, patiently waiting for more information.

“Nothing’s going on. Knox took his woman home and was going back to the clubhouse,” he explained, knowing he would worry.

“Anyone I know?” he asked curiously.

“Diamond Richards.”

The sheriff whistled. “Never would have guessed that one.”

“You’re looking tired.”

“I am. I’m a deputy short.” The sheriff sighed, raising his hand to rub his eyes. “When Cash asked me to come up here and check on Beth and Lily, I never expected to stay this long.”

“I know.”

“Rach wants to travel. Lost one wife not listening to what she wanted, don’t plan on getting another divorce in this stage of my life.”

“She won’t divorce you, maybe stop cooking for you, but she wouldn’t leave you.”

“I asked Lucky, if I retired, if he would take over,” The sheriff said, looking up the dark road ahead.

“What was his answer?”

“He told me to shove it.” The sheriff didn’t try to hide his disappointment at wanting to turn the reigns of the sheriff’s office over to someone he could trust.

The sheriff turned the conversation back to the reason he had made the stop. “Penni stopped by to see us; she was pretty upset about you calling her to jump on her ass.”

“She doesn’t need to be going to parties, and she damn sure doesn’t need to take Lily with her.”

“Go home and go to bed, Shade. You’re looking tired yourself. You’re not going to find what you’re looking for on this mountain road.” The Sheriff turned to walk away, but then turned back “And slow your ass down.”

“I will. Night, Dad.” Shade started his motor, pulling out onto the road.

“Night, son.”

D
iamond stayed
busy the next two weeks, going over the list of names that Beth, Lily and Winter had given her at the wedding. They had told the truth; the list was overwhelming in the number of men Samantha had intimate contact with. They had even made a separate category for those names she had a brief relationship with.

Several of the men had moved out of town, became married or could care less that Samantha had been murdered. The woman had no friends that she could find and Diamond was becoming increasingly worried that she wouldn’t be able to come up with a viable alternative suspect to switch the focus off Knox.

She stared out her window that faced the back of the church and provided a view of the parking lot. The sight of the church never failed to bring feelings of guilt about her relationship with Knox.

She had spent every night of the last two weeks either in his bed or hers. He would wait until dark and pick her up on his bike to take her to the clubhouse or he would knock on her door and they would stay at her apartment for the night. She refused to allow herself to think about the time he was at the clubhouse without her.

She got up from her chair and went to her window, lowering the shade so the image of the church wouldn’t be staring at her accusingly.

As she returned to her desk, her cell phone rang so she looked at the caller ID. Sex Piston was calling her. Diamond didn’t answer, dodging her sister yet again. She hadn’t been able to bring herself to talk to them since that disaster of a dinner.

She sighed, making her mind up to go over tomorrow night and face them. She would apologize and paste one of her fake smiles on and then stand by them with gritted teeth as they married.

Her cell phone rang again. Picking it up, thinking this time it might be her mother, she saw that it was the Commonwealth’s Attorney calling.

“Hello?”

“Di, this is David.

“What can I do for you this morning?” Diamond was dreading further bad news on Knox’s case.

“We’re dropping charges on Knox. The official autopsy and toxicology reports finally got back from Frankfort. Apparently, Treepoint needs a new coroner because he missed the mark on this case.”

“What did the autopsy show?” Hope had Diamond clenching the phone tighter in her hand.

“Samantha Bedford had a genetic kidney disease. The coroner said it was unbelievable that she had lived as long as she had with the shape they were in. I talked to the grandmother; none of the family or Samantha had any idea that she was sick.

“Besides that, the doctor said the hit on her head wasn’t hard enough to kill her, that her kidneys shut down. Even if we can prove the assault on her, which led to the trauma to her head, a good lawyer would get him off because of her condition. You’re an excellent lawyer, so I’m not going to waste the state’s money until we can prove without a doubt it was Knox she had the altercation with. Our office is going to drop the charges.”

“Thanks for calling me. I’ll give Knox the good news.” Diamond couldn’t hide her excitement.

“Don’t get to complacent, Di. If I can find some way to prove he was the one that caused that head injury, I’ll prosecute him for involuntary manslaughter.”

“Understood.” Disconnecting the call, Diamond was elated that Knox wouldn’t be facing a trial in the near future, but she continued to be worried he would have the specter of Samantha Bedford hanging over his head until they did find out who she’d had a fight with after Knox left her that day.

She pushed in Knox’s phone number.

“Yeah?” Knox answered with his grumpy voice.

“Where are you at?” Diamond tried to tone down her excitement, wanting to surprise him.

“Having lunch at the diner with Razer and Viper.”

“Can you come to my office when you get done, I have some good news.”

“Be there in five; we’re done here.”

“Okay. Bye.” Diamond could hardly wait to see his reaction.

She walked into her front office, smiling at Holly. “You can go to lunch.”

Her secretary returned her smile. “I take it you’re having a good day.”

“The best.” Diamond couldn’t restrain herself, she hugged her startled secretary.

“Want me to bring you something back?” Holly offered.

“No thanks. I might not be here when you get back. I’ll lock the door if I leave,” Diamond told her.

“Okay. See you tomorrow then.” Diamond nodded happily, going back into her office. A few minutes later, Knox came in. Diamond ran across her office, throwing herself into his arms.

“The Commonwealth’s Attorney’s office dropped the charges against you. Samantha had a genetic kidney disease that was the cause of death.”

Knox’s arms squeezed her. “What?”

Diamond nodded her head. “It’s true. Even if they find evidence of an argument between you, which they won’t,” Diamond added hastily, “they would have to do involuntary manslaughter and that would be hard to prove unless someone actually saw you inflict the injury on Samantha.”

“It’s over?” Knox asked, relief filling his face.

“Yes, I’m still going to try to find who attacked her because I don’t want that hanging over your head, but you’re free now.” Diamond didn’t try to hide how happy she was for him.

Knox twirled her around in a circle before putting her back on her feet.

“Want to go back to my apartment and celebrate? I don’t have any cases this afternoon.” Her arms circled his neck, leaning her body against his while her hand went to the belt at his waist. Knox’s hand grabbed her ass, pulling her against his hard body.

“Have you lost your fucking mind, Diamond?” Sex Piston’s voice from the office door had Diamond stepping away from Knox and turning to face her sister.

“What are you doing here?” Sex Piston never came to her office.

“I came to see why in the hell you haven’t returned any of Ma’s and Pop’s calls. Now I see why. You’re giving them shit while you’re screwing that fuckwad.”

“Don’t talk about him like that, Sex Piston,” Diamond snapped angrily at her sister.

Sex Piston’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “You’re taking up for him? You’ve been fucking him after throwing up your high and mighty morals to me for years. I don’t think so, bitch. You’re letting someone fuck you that I wouldn’t let touch me.”

“Shut up.”

“Why? You don’t want to hear what I got to say? Too fucking bad, I’ve put up with your shit for years.” She nodded to Knox. “If you’ve been fucking him, then you’ve done Rider, too.”

Diamond turned white, taking a step away from Knox. “What are you talking about?”

“They’re the welcoming committee to The Last Riders. They double team the women that are joining the club. He tell you how the women become members?”

“Like pop’s club; you become a member’s old lady or fuck buddy.”

“Don’t tell me you’re that fucking stupid. None of those women belong to any of the members, they are members.”

“How do they become members?” Diamond looked towards Knox. His face was impassive as he listened to Sex Piston talk about The Last Riders.

“There are eight original members. The women that want to join fuck six out of the eight. When they’ve accomplished that milestone, they go get themselves tatted with the date they got their final vote. Now isn’t that too sweet?” Sex Piston said harshly.

Diamond was deathly afraid she was going to pass out.

“You been to one of their Friday night parties?” Sex Piston asked.

“What?”

“It’s their weekly fuck-fest where they swap sex partners and decide if any new women are going to become members.” She nodded her head. “I heard that he has a regular smorgasbord every week.”

For the last three weeks they had spent Friday nights at her apartment while they had spent the weeknights at his room at the clubhouse. Diamond felt sick.

“If you didn’t make it to one of their Fridays, then he has no interest in you joining. You’re less than those women; you’re just a temporary fuck.”

“Get out.” Diamond had heard enough from her sister. Sex Piston’s mouth closed with a snap. Throwing both of them dirty looks, she stormed from the office, slamming both doors as she left.

“Is it true?” Diamond asked.

“Yes.” He made no attempt to deny any of Sex Piston’s accusations.

“All of it?”

“Yes.” As he stared her straight in the eyes, the true depths of her humiliation hit home.

“Even the part about me being a temporary fuck?” Diamond braced herself for his answer.

This time his answer was slower, but Knox was always bluntly honest. “Yes.”

“I see.” Diamond walked to the door, opening it. “Please leave.”

“Diamond.” She held up her hand, halting any words he may have spoken.

“Leave.” Knox hesitated a minute longer before leaving without looking back at the devastation he had caused. Diamond went to the front door, locking it then went back into her private office. She picked up her cell phone and called Holly.

“Hello?” Holly answered.

“Take the rest of the day off,” Diamond said, trying to keep her voice steady.

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

“All right. Thanks.” Diamond disconnected the call then threw her phone against the wall before going to sit behind her desk on shaking legs.

Tears blinded her eyes as she stared at the empty doorway, hoping he would come back and make it all right between them. She began praying that it wasn’t really the way Sex Piston had described. That he had cared for her, at least in a small amount. That his big body would come back and explain everything away, or say that none of it mattered, that he had come to care for her. Anything… she would take any explanation from him…

Her tears flowed faster as the doorway remained empty.
