Fudge's Sprite: (Brothers of Devil's Comfort MC Book 4) (6 page)

“Miss me?”

“Have you been somewhere?”

A gentle slap lands on my ass, as Nick cups my buttocks, thrusting his lower hips against me. The evidence of how much he has missed me, blatant, as he gives a gentle rub. The music in the background may be loud and not suitable for the way I am being held, but this does not prevent me from looping my arms around the biker’s neck, as I snuggle closer, rubbing my nose into the base of his neck. Nick insinuates his leg between mine. Gently rubbing his thigh against the seam of my shorts

“Nick”

“I know.”

Nick continues to hold me like this for some time, and it was not until I felt a tug on the cuff of my shorts, that I came out of my musing, to find Toby looking up at me.

“I need the toilet Mama.”

“Don’t you go anywhere Nick?”

“I’ve no plans to move.”

With regret, I pull myself out of Nick’s arms, and with Amelia, I trudge off for the toilet.

“Wow, that man is hot.”

The sound of Ivy’s voice, has me turning towards the door, where she was following me in.

“I thought bikers, weren’t your thing?”

“Hey, there’s always an exception.”

“What about Dec?”

“What about Fudge?”

Never having a sweet tooth before, I think I might just becoming addicted to fudge. It has never been a secret in the club, that Nick and I are fuck buddies. At the time, my only concern had been the children, and here I was, ready to expose them to another man.

“I’m giving Fudge a chance, Ivy. No more hiding behind closed doors and the residents of Comfort Springs will just have to get over themselves.”

“And Scott?”

“He spends his spare time at Bear’s, and I’m sure, he’ll be happy that, I’m seeing one of his brothers. Come on Toby, Amelia, let’s go get something to eat.”

By the time I return to the yard, Nick is sitting with Inferno and Linc, beside him, is a selection of food, and when he spots us walking across the grass, his hand rises, as he waves us over. The beat at my throat, echoes the one in my heart, as I make my way to my own wet dream. Caramel eyes, watch every step I make. I stagger as my feet grow by a meter or two, and I have problems, placing one foot in front of the other.

When I finally reach him, Nick stretches his neck, and wraps his hand around my neck, to plant a long whisky flavored kiss on my lips. A kiss, which I reciprocated. Without letting me go, Nick pulls me onto his lap.

“Yuck, that’s gross.”

“Mama, why is that man kissing you?”

Slowly I drew away from the succulent lips, and I let my befuddled gaze fall on to my two children. It takes a moment or two, for them to come into focus. Nick’s laughter, juddered against the back of my neck, sending a hot shot of arousal to my wet pussy. Toby has come to stand between my legs, throwing daggers at Nick, whilst Amelia attempts to climb onto my knee.

“Hey Baby Blu, aren’t you glad I’m too old to get miffed at you and Dad.”

Trax’s teasing at Baby Blu, draws an unexpected response from Nick.

“Trax I’m sure you’ve got something to do.”

“I’m gone a couple of weeks, and another ones fallen.”

Twiggy was the biggest biker of the club, yet his tread was deathly silent, whilst his voice boomed over the yard, causing several heads to turn in our direction.

Unused to this kind of attention I attempt to bury my head into Nick’s neck, waiting for the ground to swallow me up. When this didn’t happen, I have no choice but to brazen the rest of the afternoon out.

“Where’s Dec?”

“He’s gone for a ride. He couldn’t cope watching as Flynn and Ivy danced.”

“May be if he wasn’t such a bore, Ivy might give him a chance.”

Nick slapped my ass as he jumped to his feet, gathering a sleepy Amelia out of my arms.

“Come on, let’s go and put these two to bed. Then we can get down and dirty. I’ve waited nearly two weeks for this.”

Nick followed on his Harley, and as soon as I pulled into the yard, his hog pulled alongside the car.  It didn’t take long for me to locate the key, and with Toby tagging behind me, while Nick carried a sleepy Amelia, we made it to the door, only to find it ajar. As I am about to push it open, Nick shoves me out of the way, as he places Amelia in my arms.

“Wait here.”             

Chapter 8

Shit, this was all I needed. After the tedious week of trying to track Tats, we had finally located him in some shack on the Bayou, outside Blue River Bend. Now all I wanted to do, was to climb into bed with Ellie and forget all about the crap that was going on. Instead of getting what I wished, Ellie and I, have come home to an open front door.

“Are you sure you locked it when you left earlier.”

Ellie’s face was full of apprehension, as she looked at me, her warm walnut brown eyes wide in a face, which has just turned very pale.

“Yes.”

With a slight nod of my head, I make my way into the house.

“Stay here.”

“Nick?”

“Get back in the car with the children and wait for me.”

Ellie, threw one last glance in my direction, before heading towards the car. The hallway looked fine and nothing appears to be out of place. The next room, I went to, was the open plan living space, again everything looked untouched. Soundlessly, I crept up the stairs, thanking whoever was responsible for laying the carpet, as it cushioned my foot tread. Amelia’s and Toby’s rooms appears’ to have been left alone. When I finally reached Ellie’s sanctuary, I am greeted with a different story. About to reach for my phone, I spin towards the doorway, when Ellie’s yell, fills the room.

“Fuck it Ellie. I thought I told you to stay in the car.”

“Oh shit Nick, what have they done?”

The room stank of piss. Drawers had been emptied, and the contents lay scattered across the floor. On the mirror, in red lipstick, a message has been left. The en-suite, has not escaped the senseless vandalism either. The contents of the toiletries lay on the floor, and up on the walls. The deep tub taps, have been switched on, and the plug left in. Water was rising to the top, slowly trickling over the edges. Powder was turning to paste as it mixed with the water.

“Ellie, go down to the car and wait for me.”

“I need to clean this up, now.”

“Car, Ellie, I’m ringing the club, and we’ll get this sorted.”

“What about Adam?”

“Adam, doesn’t need to be involved.”

“Nick, I work for the sheriff’s department. Do you really think I can keep this quiet?”

Fuck, I needed to keep this in-house, reaching for my burner, I rang Dec and explained what had happened. Several minutes later, I finally placed the burner back in my rear pocket, only to have the phone ring. The number flashing, I recognized as Inferno’s. Again, I confirmed everything that Dec has told him.

“The guys are on their way Ellie. You and the kids can’t stay here tonight.”

“That’s okay. We can stay at Eliza’s.”

Fuck that was not okay. I wanted to spend the night with Ellie, and I doubt if Ellie wanted to leave the kids.

“Ring Adam, tell him what’s happened, and then you and the kids, can stay at mine.”

“Nick?”

“It’s only for tonight. Tomorrow we’ll get this place cleaned and I’ll move in.”

“Nick!”

“It’ll only be temporary. Until we get this mess sorted out Ellie.”

As the sound of Hogs, invaded the street, Ellie glanced towards the window. A few minutes later, Inferno and Tabby were standing behind her.

“Fuck. They’ve made a mess.”

Ellie jumped, and spun at the sound of Tabby’s voice.

“Has anything being taken?”

Ellie made a dash towards her dresser, her jewelry box and its contents scattered across the top of the unit.

“It looks like everything’s here.”

“Rayven’s sat with the children. She insisted that she took the cage, and came over.”

“Thanks Quick Draw, I’ll be down in a moment.”

While we had been standing in Ellie’s room, Adam had turned up. He had taken one look of the room, and then began scribbling in his notepad, throwing questions into the room, which Ellie answered.

“Ellie, we need to pack some of this stuff up, and take it with us.”

Vaguely, Ellie nodded her head as she left the room.  Although Ellie has left, Adam continues to question us. His gaze never leaving mine. You lost out you bastard, and you are not getting another chance. I do not know, if the nod, Adam gave, has anything to do with the break-in, or if he could read my face. When abruptly he left the room.

“Any idea who’s behind this?”

Inferno’s inquiry, following on from Adams questioning, did not surprise me.

Yeah, I had an idea, and he wasn’t going to get away with it. Burglaries were one thing. This violation of Ellie’s room, was something else.

“I’ll deal with it.”

“No, we deal with this as a club.”

“Come on, let’s lock up. You need to rescue Ellie from Rayven, and we’ll leave Sundance to watch the place tonight.”

“Thanks, Tabby.”

The only acknowledgement Tabby gives, is a nod of his head as he leaves the room.

Tonight would be Ellie’s first visit to my apartment, and so she followed me, with Dec, riding up in the rear. As soon as we arrived at the apartment block, Dec gave a wave, before he rode on. Satisfied that he was not staying. I again took Amelia into my arms, who was half asleep. Toby was wide awake, and his chatter was going ten to the dozen, mainly because he was unaware of what was happening.

I live in a one bedroom apartment. Fortunately, I had a large studio bed, which the kids could zone out on. Gently laying Amelia at one end, I left her to her mother’s mercy, as I went off to find blankets. Toby was at my heels, asking questions. The only other child, I have ever been around, as young as this, had been Trax, and I do not remember him, asking as many questions.

“Do you like my Mama?”

“Yes.”

The silence lasted as long as it took me to take a couple of blankets from out of the cupboard.

“Why are we sleeping here?”

“Because we’re having an adventure.”

“Can I have a go on your bike?”

“No. Now leave Nick alone and let’s get you undressed.”

Toby threw me an exasperated look, as he shuffled over to his mother’s side, to sit on the couch and began to remove his shoes.

“Where’s my PJ’s.?”

“You’ll have to sleep in your underwear tonight Toby.”

“I’m thirsty.”

This time it was Ellie, who threw me the exasperated look. By turning my head, I managed to hide the smile, which was breaking out, and went off to the kitchen to fetch a glass of milk for the boy and made coffee for Ellie and myself.

Ellie continued to sit on the couch, her legs bent under her fine ass, as Toby lay his head on her knee, and she stroked his hair. As I flicked through the television channels, and finally came across a station, which was suitable for the boy, I gave a small prayer of thanks that I paid for the multi-channel service.

It was a Saturday night, a night, I normally spent at the club, not sat at home watching television with a kid of seven. It was a sublime experience, to watch a movie with a child. Which, was something I would not have believed, if someone had told me this is how I would be spending a Saturday night. The constant questions and interruptions, which began to slow down towards the end, as Toby finally fell asleep. The strangest thing was, I had not minded. I had enjoyed my night. Ellie, had just sat back and left us both to chat.

“Come on, he’s asleep.”

“This is crazy Nick. We could have spent the night at the house. I could have slept on the couch.”

“Don’t argue Ellie. You wouldn’t have slept, and I just have the cure.”

“Nick, I’m not in the mood.”

Throwing my most roguish smile, the one that gets me anything. I had my arms out to the woman, who slowly slid into them.

“Ellie you need to unwind and this will be perfect.”

“Perfect?”

“Perfect.”

With a gentle shove, I pointed the way to my room, before going round and checking that everywhere was locked and secure. By the time I reached my room, Ellie was there, but she had not bothered to get undressed. Not wanting to rush or frighten her, I sat on the bed and removed my T-shirt. I had already removed the Cut and boots, when we had first arrived at the apartment. Next I undid, and shucked out of the denims, sitting back on the bed once I was naked.

As soon as I was comfortable, I opened my arms to the silent woman, who tentatively sat across my thighs, as I wrapped my arms around her waist.
