Chapter 12

Rage

To keep myself from dwelling on Vikki’s absence I wandered into the clubhouse game room to waste a few hours hanging around with any Sinners playing pool. I found Colt, Ditch, and Doc at the table. It appeared Ditch had just won a bet he’d made with Colt and was holding out his hand demanding payment.

“Hand it over. I don’t have all damn day to listen to you whine. Don’t you have to get your sorry ass to the boxing gym? You work for a living, or have you forgotten?” Ditch demanded.

“Which is why I hate handing over my well-earned cash to a lazy ass like you,” Colt replied with a gleam of mischief in his dark piercing eyes.

“Always the wise guy with the big mouth,” Ditch declared. “That’s why you lost, sucker. You’re too busy dreaming up stupid asshole things to say to pay enough attention to the damn game.”

“Both of you need to grow the fuck up,” Doc said. “It’s been like playing pool with two damn teenagers whose hormones need to be calmed down. Go find some women and let loose of some of that testosterone. Pay up Colt and get to work. I can’t stand any more of your bullshit.”

“You’re just too damn old, Doc. Look at yourself in the mirror. You’ve got all that silver on your head that says you’re old. I bet you don’t even dream about women any more. You probably can’t even get it up,” Colt teased.

“Not only can I get it up higher than yours, but I know what to do with it better than you, asshole,” Doc stated as he cupped his crotch. “I can make a woman scream for more and keep her happy all night long.”

“As entertaining as this is, I came to play some pool not to listen to children argue about who’s cock is bigger. Are any of you hanging around to play some more?” I asked.

“Look who’s talking. We all heard you jump to the defense of Vikki at the meeting, and we heard rumors that you’re the one who put the idea of her becoming a prospect in Prime’s ear. I’d say you’re smitten like a little girl with a rockstar,” Ditch declared.

“Damn, Rage. Are you calling dibs on the new blood? I was thinking about it myself,” Colt revealed.

“Keep your hands and your cock away from Vikki!” I yelled.

“Don’t get your knickers in a twist, bro. I don’t poach on what belongs to others. After all, if Prime is letting in female prospects there are bound to be more coming along. I’ll stake my claim when I find one who can handle what I’ve got between my legs,” Colt stated with a grin.

“Vikki doesn’t belong to me. I just think she deserves a fair deal,” I replied.

“And a tumble in your bed,” Ditch said in a whisper, but I still heard him.

“Enough of this shit, boys,” Doc announced abruptly. “Come on Rage. I’ll play a couple of games with you.”

My mind was too preoccupied with worrying about Vikki to pay much attention to the pool table. I kept screwing up my shots until Doc became frustrated and told me to go for a walk to cool my heels and get my head on straight. I quickly took the advice and wandered out into the darkening evening.

The walk didn’t help me as much as I’d hoped. Every shadow made me consider a new way Vikki could come to harm while she was out of our reach. The cartel members were sneaky. They had to be in order to continue kidnapping young women, and Vikki was a definite target since she’d escaped them. I couldn’t believe she’d taken such a chance with her safety. By the time I made it back to the bar my anger had risen to volcano level.

The muscles in my jaw tightened and the nerve endings there began to twitch when I walked in and spied Vikki laughing and serving drinks as if nothing had happened. She’s had the audacity to come to work after fucking disappearing and not telling anyone where she’d gone. It took all my self-control not to turn her over my knee and spank her sweet ass right in front of everyone.

I stepped in behind her and stayed on her heels as she moved from table to table. I growled in her ear, “Where the hell have you been? Don’t you realize you were risking getting taken?”

She completely ignored me and continued smiling at the customers as if I wasn’t there at all. I might as well have been a ghost. My fists clenched and my face flushed. The temperature in the room went up by several degrees.

“Why did you fucking run away? Don’t you have any damn sense?” I asked.

“I’m trying to work, Rage. How about you leaving me alone and stop trying to show me why you’re named the way you are? You don’t own me just because you managed to get between my legs,” she retorted.

“You chose to do that. I didn’t force you. You asked for it. And I know I don’t own you, but it’s my damn job to protect you!” I replied in anger.

“I didn’t ask you to make it your job! I have to stand up for myself if I intend to be a Sinner! I don’t need your help or anyone else’s,” she hissed.

“Obviously you do. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be making such stupid decisions with your life. You could have at least told someone you were leaving,” I answered.

“And have them try to stop me?” she asked. “No thank you. I go wherever I please. I won’t ever let someone own me again. Not even you!”

“Why did you leave? Was being with me that bad? Did I do something to make you decide you’d be better off without us?” I demanded.

“I thought I might be for a brief minute or two, but it turns out I want to be here more than I want to leave, so I’m back. That’s the end of the story. As to how good you are in bed, I imagine you have a clue. I’m not going to make that stubborn head of yours any bigger by complimenting your cock. Go away!”

“I’m not going anywhere until I get an answer about where you went and why,” I said.

“Then, get out of my way so I can do my job. Take a seat because it’s going to be a long night,” she sassily replied.

She took a full tray of drinks off the bar and sashayed over to a table full of men in the darkest corner of the bar. She swung her hips as she moved. It had the effect of a red cape to a bull on my temper.

I fought back the anger until a large, red headed man at the table pulled her onto his lap, kissed her neck, and said, “Come home with me, sweet cheeks. I’ve got more to give you than the asshole that’s stalking your ass.”

Her reply set me on fire.

“I may have to take you up on that, but I’ll need some proof of your size before I say yes. I’m not feeling much right now,” she teased as she wiggled in his lap.

He let out a belly laugh and said, “I’ve got me live one boys! I think I may have to take her on the table so move your damn drinks!”

He began to rise, lifting Vikki as he did. She squealed and I lost control of all reason. I leapt across the space and took him down to the floor. One hand strangled him as the other pummeled his face.

One of his buddies jumped on my back. The pain shot through me like a lightning bolt. I screamed as he pounded my back that was barely healed. I let go of the man on the floor and reached over my head to tear at my attacker’s hair. A fist hit me in the gut.

Vikki was screaming. I heard her voice over all the others in the bar. She was freaking out, but I couldn’t stop the brawl now. I was all in and others were joining.

“Stop it! Help him!” she yelled. “Please, stop it.”

Suddenly her little fists were pounding on a man who’d dared to kick me in the kidneys. The man turned to hit her, and I grabbed his arm and twisted it behind his back. I heard a loud pop and knew his shoulder had left its socket. His scream broke through the mayhem and the fight stopped as quickly as it had started.

The room was in shambles. Chairs were broken, tables overturned, and glass shattered over the floor. Blood dripped from almost everyone.

Flame stood on the bar banging on a pot with a large ladle. She shouted, “Look what you’ve all done to the bar! You assholes had better start cleaning this mess up or you’ll never be welcome here again!”

“You can’t tell us what to do! You don’t own this place!” several of the men retorted.

“The Sinners own this fine establishment,” Prime proclaimed from beside her. “Flame runs it for us, and she is to be given respect. Obey her order or never return. I know who each of you are and I will personally see to it that you are banned if you don’t help restore order immediately! My men will be happy to escort you out the hard way unless you comply.”

There were grumbles yet the tables were lifted off their sides and any unbroken chair was placed around one. The brute who had manhandled Vikki found a broom and began sweeping up the glass. I went in search of a mop to clear the whiskey and beer from the floor.

“Give me that,” Vikki demanded. “You can barely move. Your face is bloody. You’re limping, and it’s obvious your back is messed up again. Why did you start this?”

“Me? I didn’t start anything. The man pawing you did. Why don’t you explain why you were allowing it and letting him think you’d be willing to screw him?” I demanded.

“Because you were being an ass and I wanted to prove I didn’t give a damn what you thought of me. I choose who I’m with and when from now on, and that includes you. I left because I didn’t like that you made me feel too much. Okay? Are you happy now?”

Actually, I was. She’d confessed that I’d made her feel something. My pride was once again intact.

“So, risking your life was the way to stop those feelings?” I asked.

“Who said they’d stopped?” she answered. “I fought that man for you, didn’t I?”

I nodded. “You did, and it made me want you more than ever. I like wildcats.”

Her green eyes blazed. I saw desire in their depths, so I added, “Maybe, I could get you to kiss the only spot that isn’t hurt.”

Her gaze instantly slipped downward. I hardened as she reached out to touch me through my pants.

“I suppose this is the spot you mean. What about your back?” she asked.

“You’re worth the pain,” I admitted.

She gasped and backed me into the broom closet. The door shut us into darkness. I couldn’t see her, but I felt her fingers against my crotch. She unleashed my cock, and her warm lips surrounded it. I moaned despite the fact that my entire body was throbbing from the beating I’d taken. My neck burned where I’d been choked but not as much as my staff was doing as she licked it from top to bottom and back again.

Her mouth slid over me and I mumbled, “Stop, sweetheart. I won’t last if you do that.”

“I don’t care,” she said as she continued her torment. “Give me all you’ve got.”

“This isn’t it,” I declared, tugging her to her feet. “I want inside.”

I reached under the skirt she wore and ripped her panties off. I tossed them away where someone would eventually find them among all the cleaning supplies.

I lifted her by her waist and commanded, “Wrap your legs around me.”

As she obeyed I rammed myself into her willing body. The fact that I wasn’t able to see her made it seem more intimate to be attached to her. I pulled out and slammed in again. She used here feet to brace against the wall and joined me in the thrusting.

She began to whimper, then bite my ear. I knew she was close to a climax, so I slowed my movements and held her hips still. I wanted her to beg, and she didn’t disappoint me.

“No, please. Don’t stop. I want to come. I need you to help me. Hard and fast, Rage. Please!”

I caressed her tight ass and gave it a pinch. She rocked forward and moved her hips in a circle, tempting me beyond anything I could withstand. Her wetness dripped down my balls and I could smell her provocative scent. All anger disappeared. The only emotion left to me was desire.

I plunged deeper and faster, and Vikki took it while squeezing her insides tightly to give me more pleasure. The woman was maddeningly good at it. As far as I was concerned she could have me whenever and wherever she wanted. I was willing to be her slave.

Her body quivered. She stopped moving and clung to my neck as her slick chamber pulsated. She cried out and I allowed her to drain me of my juices. I filled her with my cum.

Neither of us breathed for a moment. Now I wanted to see her face. I wanted to know if she was going to run again or was she going to admit there was something between us.

Slowly, her legs slipped down until her feet hit the floor. We were disconnected and I felt lonely despite the fact that she was still leaning against me.

“Are you okay?” I asked.

“Are you?” she asked in return.

“I’m great,” I replied, cradling her head to my chest.

“Then go get yourself cleaned up. Have Doc look at your neck. I’m going back to work.”

Before I knew what she meant to do, she’d opened the door and slid through it. She smelled of our intimacy and wasn’t wearing panties, yet she was returning to work filled with my essence. Damn she was perfect!
