Riding Him(20)

Knox





I walk towards her slowly, each step calculated as I see her coming towards me down the bend. Violet puts on a show of acting tough all the time, but deep down she’s soft, and I just got a taste of that. She let me see a little more of her today. I don’t think she’s shown anyone that in a very long time, and I fucking love that I got it out of her, that I’m breaking down those walls.

She’s got her own weak points just like I do, and she’s managed to hit every target on me. But with her, those walls go up so hard and fast that when they’re down, I have to be careful. I have to make sure she knows my intentions and that I’m not going to do anything to hurt her. After what she just told me, I want to show her she can trust me. That I’d never betray her in any way. I could never hurt someone I love.

The thought makes me falter, but I don’t let it show. I don’t know why the thought comes as a shock because it’s all I’ve been doing with Violet since day one. Falling in love. She’s been in my every thought from the moment I first saw her. I haven’t wanted to say it out loud, because there’s a cost that goes with that. Admitting you care for someone so deeply that it turns to love is frightening. Violet has the ability to reject it and break my heart into a thousand unmendable pieces. Giving her that power scares the shit out of me, but isn’t this what it’s all about? Being willing to give your heart to someone else and hope that they don’t hurt you? I want her to trust me, so I have to be willing to do the same. I’m willing to take the risk of her breaking me because I know that never trying would be ten times worse.

I know I’d never do anything to hurt Violet. I may do a lot of shit-talking and joking around with her, but I’m not the type of guy to take something like this lightly. What I feel for her isn’t something that’s going to just up and go away. This is forever, and I want her to feel that way, too.

I close the distance between us and put my hands on either side of her neck, making her tilt her head back to look at me.

“Tonight you’re mine, Violet. Completely and in every way you can imagine. I’m not having a one-night stand here, and when we get back to the club, we’re not hiding this.”

I see the nervous look in her eyes, like she’s not sure she should want this, but deep down she does. I know it, or she wouldn't have told me the stuff she did. She gave me a piece of her. I’m going to collect each one until I have them all. Every part of her.

“I want my tags on you, and I want you patched in to the Ghost Riders. I want everyone in the club to know you’re mine and I’m yours. But even without the club, I want the world to know we belong to each other.”

“Knox, you’re asking for everything.”

She brings her hands up and places them on mine. Her eyes are pleading, and it’s as if she’s hoping with all her heart I mean what I say. It’s written all over her face, which looks even more innocent than before. Knowing what she’s done hasn’t changed shit. She still looks like that to me. I’m starting to think maybe I’m the only one who sees it. That softness that I know is there. I’ve known it all along.

“Yeah, baby. I want it all. I’ll take it if I have to, but I want you to put your trust in my hands and give me everything you’ve got.”

I see a little tear form in her eye, but it doesn’t fall. She just lets out a breath and nods.

“You break my heart and I’ll stab you,” she says, giving me a soft smile.

“You’ve got me in the palm of your hand, Violet. I’ll never do you wrong.”

I take her mouth, not waiting another second. She’s given me the green light, and I’m stomping my foot on the gas. I’ve been holding back, but not anymore. I’m taking all that she’s giving me and then some.

My hands go to her shirt, pushing it up and feeling her bare skin underneath. My cock aches in my jeans. We’ve got all night, and he’s going to get his turn when I’m good and ready.

I grip her waist and pick her up. Her legs go around my hips, and we don’t stop kissing as I carry her to bed. When I lay her down, I peel off her shirt and bra, then lean down and suck her hard nipple into my mouth. I bite down on the peak as my hands go to her jeans and I push them down her narrow little hips.

Her hands pull on my shirt, and I break away from her tit just long enough to slip it off my head. I nearly rip her jeans and panties off her legs. She lets out a giggle at my frustrated efforts, but I just growl and go back to putting my mouth on her body.

I run my tongue all over her creamy skin and work my way lower to between her legs. When I get there, she grips my hair and I look up at her.
