Heaven's Hell [Brac Pack 13] (11 page)

“Cock blocker,” Murdock mumbled as he kissed Heaven then followed Maverick.

Heaven smiled at his mate before padding into the bathroom. He disrobed for a shower but stopped when he caught his reflection in the mirror. His hand eased down and across his stomach. Even the scar was gone now thanks to his ability to heal. He cupped his balls and lifted them. Heaven looked down at this flaccid cock and sac. He was still a man, regardless to what they had done. Thank fuck they didn’t neuter him.

“To hell with it. I’m not going to worry about it.” Heaven turned the shower on and got under the spray. He stood there enjoying the water raining down over him. The heat relaxed his muscles.

“Now that is one delicious looking sight.” Heaven smiled at the deep, sexy, and jack off-worthy voice. He moved aside as Murdock climbed in behind him. Hands roamed up and down his back, making his skin tingle. Heaven palmed the wall as his mate explored him. His body felt like the great expedition as Murdock’s hands traced every line, touched every ridge, and kissed every nook and cranny.

His breath hitched when Murdock spread his cheeks apart and sucked at his skin. Heaven’s head rolled on his shoulders at the feel of his mate’s tongue licking his hole.

He whimpered when Murdock stood, but it was short-lived as a thick cock entered him. Heaven’s nails scraped against the wall as Murdock took him from behind.

Pieces of him shattered and ran down the drain as Murdock thrust harder. He caught a chill on his skin as his mate dug his fingers in and lifted him from the floor. His skin pimpled at the erotic act. All Heaven could do was palm the wall and enjoy the ride.

“Come for me, baby.” Murdock growled behind him, his thrusts turning into slams. His mate bit his shoulder and Heaven shouted as his seed painted the wall. His cheek hit the tile as he turned to putty.

Murdock wrapped his arms around Heaven and pulled him away.

Heaven reached behind his mate’s neck and held on. Murdock hitched his hips a few more times before grunting his release. He walked them both out just as they were. He laid Heaven on his hands and knees on the bed. Oh, God, his mate was still hard.

Murdock pushed his knees apart while he stood behind Heaven and hammered into his hole. Heaven clawed at the sheets. He mewled and hissed his pleasure as Murdock took him back to heaven.

“Fuck, I can’t seem to get enough of you.” Murdock reached under Heaven and grabbed his shaft that had come back to life.

Heaven bit the sheets as his mate pumped his hand to the rhythm his hips were setting. He growled when he felt the tingle shooting up his spine.

“Holy shit, you can screw.” Heaven fell forward as memories assailed him. He had said that before. He said it when they first mated. Murdock! “I remember,” Heaven cried out.

“Shit,” Murdock shouted as he came in Heaven’s ass. “Hell of a time to get your memory back.”

Heaven bucked as Murdock’s hand squeezed his cock. He came all over the sheets then fell forward. “Hell of a time.” He panted.

Heaven and Tangee set the desserts on the table as Murdock, and the others that had joined them from the Den, ran around with the smaller children at the rec center.

“Damn, these are good,” Tangee said as he bit into a cupcake.

“You’re not supposed to eat them. They’re for the bake sale.” Heaven rolled his eyes as he walked back outside to get another platter of cookies.

He stopped at the back of the SUV, tilting his head back and enjoying the warmth of the sun on his face. It was a little chilly out, but not enough to run Heaven back inside without appreciating the life he had now. He may have been kidnapped, experimented on, and forgot who everyone was for a moment, but he was alive and back with his mate. That’s all that mattered to Heaven.

He shoved his hands into his back pockets and closed his eyes.

Heaven took a deep breath and felt the peacefulness wash over him.

“Is everything okay?” Thomas asked as he walked out of the center and jogged down the steps, joining Heaven at the back of the truck.

“Yes.” Heaven sighed. His peaceful reprieve was over, but that was okay. He grabbed a platter and handed it to Thomas as he grabbed the last boxes of cakes. “It looks like we baked enough for an army.” He chuckled.

“It’s all for a good cause.” Thomas joined him in laughter as they made their way back inside.

Heaven felt a little queasy but didn’t mention it. Murdock would only insist he go home and lie down. Heaven was tired of lying down.

He looked over at Murdock helping the little ones draw pictures, a wide smile on his face. Heaven studied his mate for a moment, feeling all the love he held for his man tightening in his chest. If he had lost

Murdock or if he hadn’t been found, Heaven wasn’t sure he would have wanted to go on.

“You look so sad,” Caden said as he approached the table. “Are you in pain?”

“No.” He smiled at Caden. “I was just lost in thought.” Heaven arranged the baked goods and then joined his mate over at the craft table.

“Hey, beautiful.” Murdock leaned up and kissed Heaven on the cheek. He knew his mate was holding back because of the children.

He smiled. Murdock may be holding back on his kiss, but the lustful glances he was giving Heaven weren’t something he could hide. “Are you feeling okay?”

If Murdock asked him that one more time, he was going to duct tape the man and shove him in a closet somewhere. Heaven knew Murdock cared, but the question only served to remind him continuously of what he had gone through. “I’m fine.” Heaven ran his hand over Murdock’s beautiful head of hair before walking back over to the baked goods table.

* * * *

“Yes, Murdock, Yes,” Heaven cried out as Murdock lined his cock up and pushed the head past his ring of muscle. He chuckled when Heaven growled at him. “You better give me all of that.” He rocked his hips, letting the head rock in an inch and then slide back out. “And what are you going to do if I don’t?” Heaven pointed to his mouth. “You see these lips? They won’t be going anywhere near your cock if you don’t fuck me properly.” Murdock slammed forward, stretching Heaven’s legs apart as he watched his cock being sucked in by Heaven’s body. It was a wondrous sight. He reached down and cupped Heaven’s balls, rolling them in his hands as he pulled back and then thrust forward repeatedly.

“Now you’re cooking with grease,” Heaven shouted as he kicked his legs back and forth, his ass rising and dropping as he became unglued. Fuck if his mate wasn’t hot.

He ran his hands over Heaven’s smooth pelvis bone and then grabbed his mate’s cock. Murdock loved the feel of the silky skin as he stroked it to his rhythm.

“That’s right, get me off,” Heaven shouted as he thrust his hips forward, helping Murdock jack his cock off. Murdock growled, thrusting harder as Heaven cried out and filled his hand with warm seed.

Murdock grabbed Heaven’s hips and pounded his tight little ass.

He could feel his release coming as he stiffened and then shouted to the ceiling. His body jerked a few times with mini aftershocks and then he pulled free, rolling to his side and pulling Heaven into his arms.

“Oh, crap.” Heaven bolted from the bed, running into the bathroom with Murdock hot on his heels.

Murdock grabbed a towel and wet it, wiping Heaven’s face when he finished tossing his cookies. “Are you okay, baby?”

“Yes!” Heaven snapped and then began to cry. “No,” he wailed.

Murdock knelt beside him, pulling Heaven into his arms as he closed the toilet seat and then flushed it. “It’ll be okay.”

“How? We don’t even know what’s wrong with me.” Heaven sobbed into Murdock’s chest.

“I don’t know. It has to be okay, right? I mean, we have each other, everything else we can work out,” he said softly as he rested his cheek on Heaven’s head. “Everything else we can work out,” he repeated.

Heaven sat in Maverick’s office feeling like his world was crashing down around him. He knew he had bad luck. All the events

leading up to this had proven it, but pregnant? His brain felt like a broken clock that ticked away on the same number, never getting anywhere and stuck on stupid.

“How?” Murdock asked the doctor. His mate’s complexion had paled. Was that a good thing? Heaven wasn’t sure of anything anymore. Was he going to be a mother or a father? God, their child was going to be so screwed up over that unclear fact.

Their child.

Heaven’s hand went to his flat abdomen in a protective gesture.

Could he carry?

“Without exploratory surgery, I can’t tell you.” Murdock growled. “No one is opening Heaven up. Never again.”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to. If he carries, then the pup will be delivered Cesarean section. There will be no other way.”

“Yeah, because I sure as hell ain’t shitting him out,” Heaven blurted out then smacked a hand over his mouth. His brain was misfiring again. This just could not be happening to him. Was he a monster in a former life to be dealt such an unlucky hand this time around?

“What’s going to happen to him?” Murdock asked the doctor.

Heaven looked over at the physician for an answer to the very question he was just thinking.

“Hell if I know,” the doctor admitted exasperatedly. “He’s a man.

A man that was experimented on. The pregnancy could go many ways. I can’t even guarantee a gestational period. It’s going to be a wait and see game unfortunately.”

“Well, that’s reassuring,” Murdock snapped.

Heaven shot up and out of Maverick’s office to Nero’s office across the hall. He made it to the bathroom just in time to donate his cookies to the porcelain god. A wet washcloth wiped his face as the toilet flushed.

“Come here, baby.” Heaven cried as Murdock pulled him into the shelter of his arms. “Shush, we’ll work this out.” His mate rocked him back and forth on the bathroom floor.

“Am I going to be a mother or a father, Murdock, because my brain is still out on that decision?”

“You’re going to be his or her parent. Now, come on, let’s get you to bed.” Murdock pulled Heaven to his feet.

Heaven walked numbly beside his mate, allowing Murdock to guide him wherever. His brain had shut down, unable to cope with what was happening to him. A pup? He was going to have a pup?

Murdock’s pup. Heaven fell to his knees on the steps as the thought occurred to him that he and his mate had made a baby. A little being that was going to share in both their traits.

“I have you, baby.” Murdock picked him up in his arms and carried him to their bedroom.

* * * *

Okay, I’m not going to panic.

People had babies all the time, right? It wasn’t anything new.

Hell if it wasn’t.

Murdock paced the barn in a maniacal way. He was going to be a father.

A father.

Crap, what did he know about raising a pup? Heaven was still one himself.

Okay, no need to panic.

The doctor would make sure Heaven was taken care of medically.

Fuck, Doc was just as baffled as he was. What good was the old coot to them?

Murdock bit his thumbnail as he paced around haphazardly. The horses snorted and backed away. Was it going to be a boy or a girl?

Would the babe be healthy? How the fuck was Heaven going to

breast-feed? Murdock slapped a hand to his face as he pulled it down.

Fuck!

Okay, no need to panic.

It was just a babe, right? A harmless little babe. A babe that pooped and peed, upchucked, and slobbered all over everything.

No need to panic.

Murdock grunted as he ran into the wall. Heaven was pregnant, and he was going to be a father.

Okay, panic.

Maverick laid the blueprints on the hood of the SUV. “Okay, team one is going to infiltrate the basement and work their way through the duct system. Team two will come in from the north side of the building and secure the perimeters. Team three will take out communications. Are we all clear on the objective?”

“Late night James Bond movies?” Tryck asked. “I thought we were just going to kick the front door down and start kicking ass.”

“I’ve had about enough of your smart-ass mouth. Are you challenging me for the Alpha position?” Tryck snorted. “Hell no. Do I
look
like I want to shepherd over a bunch of misfits with midgets as mates?”

“You’re about five seconds away from getting your ass kicked. I still owe you one for eating my Fudgsicle.” Maverick snarled.

“Your name wasn’t on it,” Tryck snapped back.

“Can we get this over with? I have a nauseous, crying, and bloated mate to get back to,” Murdock snapped.

“Fine,” Maverick growled.

“Fine,” Tryck snarled.

“Let’s move,” Tryck snapped.

“Five seconds away,” Maverick warned.

“Okay, fine.” Tryck stopped in his tracks.

Heaven’s Hell

“Let’s move.” Maverick stormed away.

Murdock rolled his eyes as he followed the men through the woods and to the lab where his mate had been held and experimented on.

The sight of the building boiled his blood. The promise to make everyone pay came surfacing back the closer they came to it. The need to obtain Heaven’s medical records was bouncing around somewhere in his mind, but he wasn’t concentrating on that.

Murdock stalked toward the front of the building and shot the guard with his gun mounted with a silencer, not even breaking stride.

He was a shifter, used to dealing with the enemy with teeth and claws, but he was too enraged. The gun in his hand was going to deliver their deaths. He pulled the door open and shot the two men in the reception area, still not breaking stride as he made his way down the hall.

The place wasn’t too secure. They were probably convinced nobody knew about them therefore they were lax in normal protocol.
