Secret Mayhem (Back Down Devil MC #4)(36)

Grunting, Shay put a hand to the back of her head and let her suck on him. Her legs were spread and breasts bounced as she moved back and forth on him. Her small mouth felt tight and warm. It reminded Shay of her *. Gently, he started to thrust at Ava. He couldn’t take his eyes off her lips on his shaft, but when he did and caught Ava starting up at him, he gritted his teeth and shook his head.

“Fuck, love,” he whispered. “This never happens so quick… but… damn…”

Shay curled his hand tight around Ava’s hair. She moved faster and faster, bringing him right to the edge. When Shay felt the first spurt of his orgasm, he hissed. Instead of stopping and accepting Shay, Ava kept going. She kept moving and sucking, taking him again and again, savoring his taste.

When she finally took her mouth from his cock, she sat up and grabbed the sheet from the bed. She wrapped it around her body and stood. Ava licked her lips and smiled.

Shay wanted to say something, but his thoughts were scrambled. This chick was stealing a piece of his heart he didn’t know existed.

Damn…

“Are you going anywhere today?” Ava asked as she sat on the edge of the bed, the sheet around her body, eating what technically was now her second breakfast.

Shay collected himself and said, “There’s a fight tonight.”

“A fight?”

“Yeah. We fight. A lot. It's good money and a great way to burn off some anger. We need to keep the Lost Men happy. They need a good fight. And I want you there with me.”

“Where?”

“Wherever I am,” Shay said. “I won’t lie, Ava, it’s rough. Lots of guys and girls. Blood. Sometimes people get killed. Emily's best friend was killed at one of these fights.”

“What?” Ava asked. “And you want me to go there?”

“It’s safer than being here. I can see you and protect you. I just want you to… to realize what this all is. It’s not a game. It’s not for fun. It’s my life. We don't get the chance to plan for a future. We only get right now, Ava. This second. This moment. You’re with me, but you don’t have to be. Once this is all done, you'll be free to do as you please. I would never hold you hostage here.”

Ava stood and walked her plate to the dresser. Shay wished the damn sheet would fall off her body. But that would only tempt him even more.

“Are you asking me to stay here?” Ava asked.

“I don’t know what the f*ck I’m asking,” Shay said. “When I come into this room and see you sleeping in the bed… it’s good. Okay? And the day you took off…”

“That wasn’t good?” Ava asked with a smirk.

“It’s no joke,” Shay said. “You want to see some chopped off fingers? You want to see what my car looked like after it blew up? You want to see pictures of Erik after that bomb went off?”

Ava shook her head. “I’m sorry. I was just… I don’t know. Shay, I’m right here. I’m present with you and I’m okay with that. If that’s okay with you.”

“The fight is later,” Shay said. “You have to stay close to me. I’m not trying to scare you, I just don’t want you wandering away.”

“Do the others go to these?” Ava asked.

“Like I said, Emily’s best friend was killed at one. But that was an attack on us. We got our revenge for it.”

Ava nodded. “I’ll be wherever you want. I can't let any of the Lost Men hurt me, and no one can learn my secret..."

“What you need to do right now is drop that sheet and finish your breakfast.”

Ava blushed as she opened the sheet and let it fall to the floor. The rest of the day was spent naked and back and forth between the bathroom and bedroom. The whole afternoon passed until it was time to get ready. They got dressed and left the room for the first time since breakfast.

Shay had Ava wait at the bar while he went into the meeting room where Griffin was going over the details of the fight with Miller. There was a stack of cash on the table.

“Are we betting?” Shay asked.

“Yeah,” Griffin said. “We’re betting on the Lost Men.”

“Might as well make a little cash from all this,” Miller said. “We’re going to need it.”

Gaige appeared in the doorway and looked at Shay. “Got a second?”

Shay bumped fists with Griffin and then left the meeting room. Shay and Gaige walked further down the hall.

“Everything solid with Chief Jerry?” Gaige asked.

“Yeah. Just needed some information.”

“On what, man?”

Shay motioned to Ava.

Gaige raised an eyebrow. “Really?”

“For her protection,” Shay said. “That’s all. It’s been a long road for the club, Gaige. This will be ending soon.”

Gaige smiled. “You really think that?”

“No,” Shay said. “But a guy can hope.”

“The only hope we have is in a bottle and between our woman’s legs.”

“Spoken quite like Blaine,” Shay said.

“What about Blaine?” a voice asked.

Blaine ran a hand through his hair. With a cigarette between his lips, he smiled.
