CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE

DC

His office door stood open and I walked into my old man’s office thinking I’d find him hard at work, but he wasn’t. He was sitting with his elbows on his desk and his face in his hands.

What the hell?

“My Viking?” I asked softly as I slowly walked up to him.

When he looked up his eyes were red and loss was written clearly in them.

“What happened? Come on, baby, talk to me.” I waited with a churning gut for him to tell me who we’ve lost.

“Come here, little bird, I need you in my lap.” He held his hand out to me and I went to him. I sat down in his lap and threw my arms around his neck, holding on tight.

His kiss was soft and loving and made my heart ache with love for this big hard man of mine.

Pulling away I looked up into his golden eyes and waited.

“Kid is leaving us.” He said quietly and my body jerked with shock. It was very obvious that my man was hurting, badly. He was losing his best friend. “He’s taking over the Cape Town chapter, as VP at first but he will be their President by February.”

I almost sighed with relief but I kept it locked inside and searched his eyes before I nodded. “You want him to go but it’s going to be hard to say goodbye.”

“I do, and it is, but he’s the best man for the job. I know what his life was like growing up under Flash and Esther Warne and let me tell you it was hell incarnate. There’s shit I can’t talk about, things were done to him as a kid that warped a part of him. But he overcame it to become the man he is today. He lives our motto, Heart, Honour, Honesty and Brotherhood every single day. I’m going to miss him, little bird, so fucking much.”

I drew in a deep breath then let it out slowly.

“Okay, let’s look at it this way. You’re honouring Kid by supporting his appointment as VP to the Cape Town chapter and not only that, you’ve got his back when he takes over the presidency. That’s big, my Viking, not just big it’s huge. Have you ever done it for one of the other members of the club?”

He shook his head slowly.

“And there it is. He’s the only one worthy of the support of the National President of the Iron Dogz MC.” I leant up and planted a soft kiss on his lips. “And just think, baby, we can visit him often and he can visit us as well. Cape Town isn’t that far away. A few hours by plane but if we’re road tripping then it’s going to take us a little while because there are so many places I want to visit along the way.”

His smile started small but it grew to beam from his beautiful face. “Can’t wait to hit the road down to Cape Town with you on the back of my bike, little bird. We’ll take our time; see whatever the hell you want to see on the way down before getting to the mother city. As soon as this shit with Murchison and the old bitch is handled we’re hitting the road. From here down to Cape Town then up the coast to Durban and back home again.”

My mouth fell open and it took me a few seconds before I could say anything. “That’s not a quick trip, My Viking, it would take us around a month or so, maybe longer if we’re visiting clubs on the way.”

For the first time in weeks his eyes sparkled with excitement, well, except for when we were making love that is.

“I’m thinking two months would be ample time for us to do the touristy thing and handle club business at the same time. I need to visit the clubs and I don’t want to do it without you. I need you with me, baby.” He suddenly looked nervous. “And it could be our honeymoon trip if you say yes. Will you think about marrying me, little bird?”

Will I think about it? It’s all I’ve been thinking about for a very long time. I had been under the impression that he was happy to carry on the way we were. I wore his patch and ink but he never really pushed for more.

“I’ve been thinking about it for a while now, my Viking. And I don’t have to think about it any longer. I think a loooong road trip as a honeymoon will be absolutely perfect. I know we won’t be on our own but once we close the door to our bedroom it will be only us. So, my answer to your question is, I’ve thought about it and yes, yes I’ll marry you.”

His eyes glowed as he dropped his head down to mine and sealed his lips over mine. We kissed, hard, wet and deep.

“Thank you, little bird, I swear on my life you’ll not regret your decision. Now we need to celebrate.”

He surged up out of his chair, threw me over his shoulder and raced through the building and up the stairs to our room. As he ran with me bouncing on his shoulder, his big hand clasped over my ass and his fingers over my pussy whistles and cat calls followed us but I didn’t care. We were on our way to celebrate.

I was marrying my Viking and I knew very soon after we would seriously start trying for a baby.

My man had been slow to change but I stuck in there and finally I had all of him. Every single part of him belonged to me now.

He was mine.

Forever.

Face/Noe

Friday Night

It had been a hectic week. Not only had Dizzy, one of Kid’s club brothers, moved into our house with him but I had been training with DC and Alien every single day. I was ready, so damned ready and so was DC. Her fight was one she had been looking forward to for a while because the bitch she was fighting had been spreading rumours about how DC was too old and a has been. The bitch was in for a rude awakening tonight.

I hadn’t heard from Murchison the entire week. I knew he was watching us closely and to keep him thinking I was doing the job Kid and I would be moving to the clubhouse after the fight.

Our time together was running out fast and I was enjoying every single moment I had with him. As promised he had taken me shopping at an adult store and my eyes had been on stalks at the things he had loaded into our basket. Dizzy strolled along behind us chuckling every time I gasped or gaped at the merchandise displayed on the shelves.

The only thing I had been adamant about were the butt plugs...a hard no for me. No way was he sticking that up what was meant to be used as an exit only. But the bastard convinced me to try a wand like thing that wouldn’t stretch my ass - much. I agreed but only if he was going to join in the play. What was good for the goose was good for the gander as far as I was concerned. Right?

I thought Dizzy was going to die of laughter as we argued back and forth.

“Fuck...I never thought I’d be standing in an adult store watching my boss arguing with his woman about stuff to stick up their asses. This is fucking priceless. Never going to forget this...never!”

“Fuck off, Dizz.” Kid snarled as he added whatever the hell that thing was to the basket. And just like that he gave me access to his ass. Just the thought had me wide eyed and nervous. And excited, so damned excited.

Just thinking about it had me tingling. Again.

My wandering thoughts was jerked back to the present by voices outside the door.

I’d been warming up and my skin felt heated but not yet sweating and I was sitting on the steel table in the dressing room waiting for Alien to come and wrap my hands. I shifted to get a more comfortable position. Dizzy, who was leaning against the wall grinned knowingly. Ass.

My pussy was sore and my ass cheeks weren’t too happy with me either.

Kid had pulled out all the stops last night. He’d introduced me to so many things the last week but last night he wanted to play with my ass and I finally gave in. Had I known that he was going to give me pain and pleasure at the same time I might not have agreed. A sore ass when I’m about to fight definitely wasn’t ideal.

But thinking of last night had my breath speeding up and my heart beating a tattoo in my chest.

When I had walked out of the bathroom after my shower he had the bed covered with towels then he’d restrained me on my belly on the bed, my legs stretched wide and my arms tied above my head. He drizzled scented oil over my back and massaged it into my skin from the tips of my fingers down to my toes. He missed not a single centimetre of skin. Talented fingers stroked down between the globes of my butt, gently spreading oil down my crack and over my pussy, cupping it and sliding back and forth a few times before sliding down my inner thighs. Sliding back up my body his hands slipped beneath me and stroked over my boobs, his fingers pulling on my piercings before sliding away. Doing it over and over.

But every time he returned to my ass cheeks and my crack working the warm oil into my skin and every now and then sliding a finger just inside my ass while his other hand played with my pussy. Sliding the bar over my clit back and forth, back and forth. I kept lifting my hips begging for something, not even sure myself what that something was.

But he knew. He knew exactly what I needed. The next time I lifted he slowly slid the big lube covered dildo he had bought into my pussy while something else was slowly pushed into my ass. I felt full and nervous and excited. I couldn’t stop the moan when whatever was in my ass started vibrating. The vibration drove me crazy as he fucked the dildo into my pussy, harder and harder. Pushing it in deep he left it there then slid an arm under my hips and lifted them high. I was raised up on my toes and elbows with my ass up in the air. He slid cushions underneath my body and moved them around until he was satisfied. By this time I was almost mindless from the vibration and the dildo stuffing my pussy. When I felt him move into the space between my wide open legs I shuddered. My whole body quavered.

There was a sort of whispery, whistling sound and then the thin leather straps of the short handled flogger hit my ass. He didn’t stop when I jerked and moaned. It hurt and it didn’t hurt. It was weird because every time those thin leather strips hit the sensitive skin of my ass they caused pain that was immediately followed by pleasure as the thing in my ass vibrated and he slowly slid the dildo in and out of me. He spread the stripes over both ass cheeks and every now and then over my filled and aching pussy. My juices flowed from me like a damned river.

I moaned softly when he eventually dropped the flogger right next to my head and started stroking his hands over my cheeks, soothing the pain and the heat. He had flogged me hard enough that I knew it was going to leave marks. And I was okay with it because they were his marks. His hands left my heated cheeks and I held my breath as I waited for the next step.

My head was turned to the side and he was suddenly there, his hand stroking his hugely engorged cock.

“Look at my dick, baby, look how much he wants you. Watch as I cover him in oil. This oil has a bit of a bite to it so it’s going to make your pussy tingle when I take it. Not in a bad way, it will add more to the experience, I promise.” His voice was low and intense as he stroked up and down his now glistening cock.

All I could do was blink, I had lost the ability to speak.

Moving out of my line of sight I felt the bed depress between my spread legs and his hands settled over my calves and stroked up over the back of my knees, my thighs and up over my cheeks. They lingered there, stroking and gliding and slipping down to tap my pussy before moving away.

He moved closer and I felt the heat of him against my thighs and core.

The dildo was slowly pulled out of me and then his cock was right there at my weeping and gushing entrance. He slowly pushed inside and I whimpered at the sensation of his piercings sliding inside. And the tingle he was talking about started right away. It felt fucking awesome. I was so sensitive every single touch had me lifting my ass for more and more and more. And I got more because the vibrations from the wand in my ass kicked up to what felt like high and both of us moaned. He could feel it on his cock through the walls of my pussy and ass.

And then he started moving. Not slow. Not easy. But heavy and hard and so damned deep. Between the vibrations in my ass, his cock ramming in and out of my pussy, his fingers playing with my clit and his skin rubbing over the stripes on my ass I was gone. All I knew was that I needed to come and I was using the limited movement I had to rock my hips on the cushions and lift my ass.

With a deep growl he curled his body over mine, both of his hands coming down beside my shoulders and started fucking me in earnest. My body moved with the force of his thrusts and the bed swayed and bucked beneath us. His cock slammed inside me and with every single thrust his lower belly moved the vibrating wand in my butt. The sensations were overwhelming and I felt my orgasm approaching like a huge rogue wave. It grew and grew until it overtook me and the walls of my pussy spasmed and clamped down on his cock and my ass clenched tight around the vibrator as I came in a rush of wet that the gushed past his cock and out of me, streaming down my thighs.

Growling almost continuously Kid shoved himself deep inside, his teeth clamping down on my shoulder and his hugely swollen cock jerking hard as he came. His come joined the tide rolling out of me and when he moved his hips in a few shallow thrusts squelchy wet sounds rang through the room.

“Fuck, angel-eyes, you squirted around my cock when you came. It was the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me. And just listen to how wet you are, so very fucking wet. And I did that to you, I love it, I fucking love it.” He murmured.

The vibration in my butt turned off but he didn’t move. He lay over me and gave me his weight and because of all the pillows he had stacked underneath me I could handle it. And I wanted his weight, needed it.

He slowly pushed himself up but didn’t take his cock out of me. I shuddered when he withdrew the wand out of my ass and dropped it on a towel on the floor next to the bed. Only then did he withdraw and more fluid rushed out of me and down my legs.

He gave a soft pleased laugh as his hands smeared our combined come up my thighs and over my ass cheeks, rubbing us all over my ass and down over my pussy.

“I would love to stay here staring at my pretty little pussy. It’s all red and swollen and this delectable ass is red, swollen and glowing with my stripes and both are covered in our come. I could stay here all fucking night but I need to clean my angel-eyes.”

He murmured almost as if to himself before he spoke directly to me.

“Lay still while I untie you and then we’re going to shower. Your ass is going to be tender tomorrow but I’ll take care of it after our shower. My marks will be on your body for a day or two but the tenderness should disappear by tomorrow.” He softly kissed the dimples above my ass and both ass cheeks then pulled out the cushions underneath me and moved away to untie me. He massaged my arms and shoulders and then my legs to get my circulation going then lay down beside me. I still had little tremors racing through me as he softly stroked my skin.

His voice was a hoarse whisper when he looked deep into my eyes. “Next time you get to be in charge, you can tie me down and handle the flogger and the wand. I want you to give me what I need like I gave it to you tonight.”

My breath stuttered and I could only nod, because I so wanted to do it to him and watch him lose his mind. And he will lose his mind. I would be making sure of it.

I stopped reliving the best night ever when the dressing room door opened and Alien and his entourage walked in. My personal life was immediately shoved behind a locked door in my head. I needed the soft out of the way for what was about to happen.

And because I’ve had a lot of practice locking my personal life away it was easy.

I was looking forward to taking the slut apart.

Alien finished wrapping my hands then stood between my spread legs and looked into my eyes. He did that silently then nodded. “You’re ready. Go out there and take what you need. We’ve been given a tiny bit of leeway but not much. You may hurt her, and even do enough damage that she will never climb into the ring again, but no killing. The directive comes from the boss. We have eyes on us tonight, Face, so no deaths. Okay?”

I nodded in agreement. There was a lot I could do without killing her. A hell of a lot.

Even though I would have loved to have Kid beside me I knew his club came first and he was with his president, guarding his back. The big man was with his old lady as she prepared for her fight. Kid had explained they would be in her dressing room until it was time to take their seats to watch the fights.

It sucked, but it is what it is. It’s not like he was my old man or anything.

At least I had Dizzy with me in the dressing room. Over the last week I got to know the always smiling man but his eyes hardly ever joined in that smile. There were demons hidden behind those pretty hazel eyes and his dimpled smiles. I idly wondered what had put them there, but I would never ask. That would be intrusive.

Alien tapped me on my back and I slid off the table and he took me through some moves to keep my muscles warm and supple.

“Alien, it’s time. Delia is about to walk in.” A deep voice warned us. “Good luck, Face. I have some money riding on the outcome of this fight, babe, give it to her good.”

Alien shook his head with a smile. “You’ll be making some pennies tonight, Skel. My girl is going to take that bitch apart.”

My smile was small as I nodded and bounced in place. My hair was slicked back from my face and all my piercings had been removed. I already knew a hit to the face was going to be damned painful because there were some exposed nerve endings in the scars. But I wasn’t worried. Prison had been good for several things, and one of them was being able to take pain. Actually more pain because although Murchison trained me with pain it wasn’t aimed at permanently disabling me. It took a while and a lot of fights before I made prison my kingdom. Or should I say Queendom?

Yes, I liked that. My Queendom.

And Delia was about to find out why I was the Queen.

Dizzy held my robe and I slipped my arms in and let him tie it around me. It was silky and black with Phoenix embroidered in gold across the back. A flaming phoenix in yellows, reds and gold was embroidered underneath my name. I was fighting in black lycra shorts and a black sports bra. No names on either.

My tattoos peaked out of my waistband and the legs of my shorts, the phoenix on my right hip and a sugar skull with a very ornate crown on the left. I had them done soon after I got out of prison, Pixie’s work. On my right upper arm was a grey scale rose with the names of my family and crew hidden in the petals and leaves. Underneath it was the date I went in and the date I was released. Underneath that was a blank headstone...once my enemies had been taken care of it would no longer be blank.

While I had been in my head the bitch had apparently walked down to the ring and I had somehow missed it. I never even heard her music or the announcer’s voice.

Now I was listening. I tilted my head as I listened to the voice announcing me and grinned.

“All the way from Cape Town! We have Phoenix!”

My music roared out of the sound system and filled Underground with Godsmack’s song Say My Name. I had chosen it on purpose.

By the end of the fight they would all be saying my name. No, they would be shouting it.

I followed Alien out of the dressing room. My hood was pulled up over my head and the red, yellow and gold mask of flames I always wore covered my face. The only part that showed were my eyes. Tonight was the night the Phoenix would drop the mask and unveil who she really was.

No one out there knew what was about to happen except those closest to me. My girls had wanted to be with me but I’d persuaded them to wait until I was on my way to the cage before they came out to take their seats.

Of course they didn’t bloody well listen. They suddenly appeared dressed in tiny red dresses and danced ahead of me. Leading me to the octagon inside which the Savage was waiting.

I suddenly needed to be with them, I pushed past Alien and joined my girls and we danced down the aisle of screaming and shouting men and women.

Shrugging out of my robe I threw it to Cuba then stepped through the gate into the cage and stood with my arms thrown wide as the song wound down.

Snapping my hands to the top of my head I dragged my mask off and threw it to the side of the cage as the last ‘Say My Name’ rang through the air.

In the sudden stunned silence I pointed at Savage and screamed. “Say My Name!”

Her face went from confident and full of bravado to shocked and fearful. I was overjoyed to see the fear in her eyes. She knew this would be no ordinary fight. I was here for a long overdue reckoning. She was about to suffer and she knew it. But she was a fighter and controlled her fear as she rolled her shoulders and prepared to take me on.

My girls started chanting Face, Face, Face and the Iron Dogz took up their chant.

The ringmaster walked around the outside of the cage and his deep voice calmed the noise down to a dull roar as he went through the introductions.

“Tonight is a very special night. The Phoenix decided to reveal her identity here, in our ring. We say welcome to Face, all the way from Cape Town. She will be fighting one of our regular fighters, Savage.” He turned and looked at us. “Give us a good fight.”

Nothing about give us a good clean fight, no, just a good fight.

The bell rang and it was on.

It was no longer Delia the traitor standing across from me, it was the fighter known for her savage attacks. I rolled my neck and waited for her to make the first move. I didn’t have to wait long.

She came at me with a flurry of kicks and punches. Some of them hit but most didn’t. I was fast and moved out of her range. Being taller than her with a longer reach was going to play well into my plans. I immediately started laying the groundwork, peppering her thighs and hips with solid kicks and several hard hits over her abdomen and chest.

The bitch kept on coming for my face, obviously trying to open up one of the scars but she didn’t have enough of a reach, plus I never let my guard down. I was sweating and it dripped off the ends of my hair that had long since lost the gel I had slicked through it to keep it out of my face. The raggedy ends hung over my forehead and eyes and I flung my head to the side to shake it off.

Savage was bleeding from several cuts to her face. Her eyebrows, her nose and her lips dripped blood onto the canvass. And unlike a sanctioned match no one stopped the fight. We’d been tested and were both clean so the blood was allowed to flow freely.

I had her bleeding, and now I was going to break her. Bit by bit, piece by piece.

I started with the left forearm. One kick, it took only one kick for her to scream with pain and clutch at the arm with her right hand. I didn’t step back or stop, I immediately went for her left leg. I knew the strength of my kicks and I ran from the far side of the cage jumped and flew through the air. Twisting in mid-air my entire body was committed to my target. My feet landed on her thigh and lower leg at the same time. The bones audibly snapped like little match sticks. The force of the kicks had her flying backwards and she fell screaming in pain to the floor.

Throwing my head back I screamed my rage to the heavens then jumped up and at the last minute changed my trajectory. Instead of caving her chest in I landed with my feet on either side of her body. Raising my right foot I slammed it down on her throat, bent down and dragged my fingers through the blood on her face, getting them good and covered.

Still bent over her I kept my eyes on hers as I dragged my blood covered fingers over my scars, painting one half of my face with blood, her blood. She whimpered in pain and fear and passed out as I straightened but stayed standing over her.

Throwing my arms out wide I dropped my head back and screamed.

“Say my name!”

The chants started immediately.

“Face, Face, Face, Face.” It carried on and on while I stood over my vanquished enemy.

Stepping away from her still body I waited as the gate opened and Alien and Grizzly climbed inside. They were followed by medical personnel who immediately headed to Savage.

Alien and Grizzly raised my arms high overhead as they paraded me around the inside of the cage.

Suddenly my girls were right there with me in the cage and music thundered as they danced around me. Going to their knees in front of me they bowed down then raised their hands high with huge smiles on their faces.

And the song? When Legends Rise by Godsmack. I couldn’t stop myself from joining them. We had done this so often on our rooftop it just felt right. And dancing to Evvie’s choreography I led them out of the cage in a victory dance.

Now that the fight was done I no longer wanted to hangaround and it seemed the guys wanted me out of there as well.

Looking at the faces around the cage I found Kid standing with his president and the rest of their club. He looked at me with a strange look in his eyes. As I watched he lifted his right hand and tapped two fingers over his heart.

I don’t think anyone else saw him do it. But I did and it meant the world to me.

I should have ignored it, not allowed it to affect me, because not long after everything changed. And not for the better.
