The cops didn’t ask any other questions. We’ve known the chief for years, and he kept our business… well, our business.
Liv came in, visibly shaken. “Girl, you okay?”
“Will be,” she replied as her eyes searched the room, taking in all of the destruction.
“I’ll ask Cruz if the Prospects can help clean up the mess and we’ll get the girls to help. We’ll be up and running soon.” I hugged her, rubbing her back. “We’ll need to be closed for a few days.” She nodded.
“Princess, phone call.” Tug held out his phone to me. “Cruz.”
I figured and turned on the charm. “Hey, Baby. How’s the trip?”
“Don’t, what the fuck happened?” After explaining in detail what happened, he wasn’t very happy with me. “Get your fucking ass to the clubhouse, now.” He yelled loud enough; I had to pull it away from my ear.
“We’re just about done here.”
“No. Now.”
I tried to swallow my frustration, but it was difficult. “I’m fine. Everyone is fine.”
“You are not fine. You fucking shot two guys and ripped a guy’s balls off. Not to mention the Studio is fucking trashed. Like I said, get your ass to the clubhouse, now. I’m on my way. Be there in two hours.”
Blowing out a deep breath, I forced out, “Leaving now.”
“Good. Lock yourself in my damn room with my boy, and don’t fucking move.”
Rolling my eyes, I responded, “Okay.” I waited for him to hang up.
“Let’s ride,” I said to Tug, slipped my phone in my pocket, then turned to the boys. “B.Boys get Liv home, please, and lock this place up tight.”
Chapter 7—Cruz
We had a perfect run, no problems or complications… except for my girl. Dammit. I didn’t get Tug’s text until we pulled off for gas, and after that I drove like a bat out of hell. Hearing Tug replay the entire scene made my fucking blood boil. Not only was someone after Princess, she decided to take matters into her own hands. The two hour drive did nothing to cool me down. Pulling up to the clubhouse, my first stop was Tug.
“What the fuck happened?” I boomed, crossing my arms across my chest, trying to hold them back from ringing this fucker’s neck. He should have never let her go.
“Your girl kicked some serious fucking ass,” he replied, mimicking my pose.
“Why the fuck did you let her go?”
He laughed. “Have you met your girl? We weren’t gonna change her mind, thought it best to be there to protect her.”
“Fuck,” I rubbed my hands over my face. This was such a huge cluster-fuck. Nodding in understanding, I headed into the club.
“Hey, Cruz!” Buzz called from the bar.
“What?” I said walking by not wanting to hear shit from anyone.
“You serious about that girl?” His words halted me. Turning to stare at Buzz, my anger peaked.
“What the fuck do you care?” I said, narrowing my eyes at him.
Something flickered in his eyes, but he didn’t back down. “Cause I saw what she can do. She’s something.”
“She’s mine. Stay the fuck away.” He held his hands up and stepped back.
“Got it.”
“Don’t you fucking forget it!” Striding towards my room, I couldn’t help the small smirk that played on my lips. Not only does Princess have the adoration of all the ol’ timers here, now she’s got it from the Prospects, too. Damn.
Turning the handle, I found it was locked. My heart warmed that she actually fucking listened to me. Unlocking the door, I could see Princess’s back stiffen as she was down on the floor playing Legos with Cooper. “Daddy!” Cooper ran into my arms as I knelt down to catch him in a full-out run.
“Hey, Buddy. How are ya?” I asked kissing the top of his head.
“Pin… ess pay boks.” His smile was wide, and I could tell that he had fallen under her spell, also.
“She’s playing blocks with you, huh?” He shook his head.
“And Ma gives mes cookies!”
“Sounds yummy. Let’s go find Ma for minute. I gotta talk to Princess.”
After dropping him off with Ma, I found Princess lying on her back with her arm covering her eyes. “I know you’re there and pissed. I had to go and protect my girls. I’d do it again in a heartbeat,” she said, looking up at the ceiling.
Kicking the door shut and locking it, I reached the end of the bed climbing between her spread thighs. Laying on top of her and removing her arm, I crashed my lips to hers, needing to feel her, taste her, and know she was alive with me.
Princess melted into me as I took what I wanted from her. Not wasting a single second, I ripped her shirt over her head, kissing, licking, and nipping her neck and the curve of her beautiful tits. Pulling her bra away from her body, I needed to devour her. I pulled her nipples in between my teeth giving them small bites and sucking hard.
As her breath caught and the moans became deeper, my dick became painfully hard and needed to be inside her tight pussy. Kissing my way to her jeans, I ripped them quickly away from her body. The scrap of fabric she had on as underwear tore easily in my hands.
Looking down at this beautiful woman underneath me, I wanted to savor everything about her. Kissing down her body, my mouth latched on to her clit sucking hard. She set off like an explosion in my mouth, coating my tongue with her sweetness. Before she came fully down, I buried myself inside of her pumping and thrusting with everything I had.
“Condom,” she choked out between pushes.
“No. You’re mine. This pussy is mine.” She didn’t argue; instead her eyes rolled in the back of her head as her body arched up from the bed. As my dick slid in her wet heat, it took everything I had to wait to come. Screaming, she called out my name over and over again. I didn’t show her any mercy, if anything, I pounded harder.
As she came a third time, I released deep inside her body. Every part of my body shook as I felt her deep in my soul. Collapsing on top of her, I slowly rolled to the side, taking her with me.
“So, you’re pretty pissed, huh?” she asked, smiling, trying to catch her breath.
“Better now.”
“Good.” She squeezed me tight. I’d missed feeling her, shit; I’ve only been gone a couple of days.
I hated to break this up, “Diamond wants to see you.”
“Shit. I swear I didn’t start this shit.” Her voice was laced with concern.
“He just wants to know what happened and what was said. We gotta get this shit taken care of.”
Nodding, she rolled out of bed giving me an awesome look at her hot ass and making my dick hard again. We didn’t have time; Diamond was waiting.
Walking out to the clubhouse, Princess was in front. She gave chin lifts to the guys sitting around the bar. Dagger came up to her, “You okay?”
“Of course.” She shrugged it off.
“Good, can’t have your sweet ass getting shot.” I tried to contain the growl that came out of my throat, but it was no use. It only made Dagger laugh. When Princess reached behind her, grabbing my hand, latching our fingers together, I couldn’t help the smug grin.
“Princess. Get in here!” Diamond called from his office. “You too, Cruz.”
Princess held my hand into the room. Not gonna lie, it excited me that she was acknowledging us to the club. Finally.
“Sit,” Princess and I sat next to each other on the couch while Diamond sat in the chair by his desk.
“So, quite a shit storm you got going on, girl.”
“Diamond, I didn’t start this…” Princess began, shaking her head as she squeezed my hand. I reciprocated.
“I know. We gotta figure out what the fuck is going on. Tell me from the beginning.” As Princess replayed the scene, she released my hand. Hearing step by step what happened and what was said, something was off with this whole situation.
