Ace of Spades (Underground Affair Series Book 1) (31 page)

“But Lucy didn’t pay you and she knows you’re a stripper. That was never a problem before, right?”

“No, but her parents flipped out. The way they looked at me, like I was the lowest form of scum. I never regretted stripping, it always made me feel good. I liked the attention but right now I feel like a dirty sleaze. I told the Chief I would transfer out of our house tomorrow.”

“Wait, so what exactly happened with Lucy then?”

“I did the right thing, I broke up with her. I know how much her parents mean to her, I didn’t want her to have to choose so I chose for her.”

“The right thing? If she is half as miserable as you are, then I’d say it was definitely the wrong thing.”

“She’ll move on and find someone else, someone who…”

“Someone who will never love her as much as you do?”

“Declan, please. I need you to be my friend, not lecture me.”

“Alright. Jenna, grab me a glass, Darling.”

Jenna walked over and handed Declan a glass. Declan poured himself a drink, refilled Ace’s glass and hung his arm around his shoulders as he joined him for a drink.

Luke opened the door to his room, his stomach was flip flopping. He wasn’t sure if this would be his only chance to have Shane in his bed so he wanted it to be something he would never forget.

“I uh…I have condoms here.”

Luke went over to the drawer and pulled out two strips of condoms and lube.

“I have these, are they alright, which do you prefer I use?”

“Luke, calm down, ok. You’re making me think you’re a virgin.” Shane laughed which in turn caused Luke to chuckle.

“I never did this before, I, I mean with someone like you.”

“Like me, huh. You must be talking about my ornate cock.” Shane gave Luke a wink and the two of them started laughing again.

“You know what I mean, Shane?”

“I do. It’s just that I’m the same person I was before I won my first Championship and unless I am in that cage, I am the same as you or anyone else. I’m just a regular guy who loves sex and pizza.”

“Regular and sexy as hell.”

Shane reached his hand up and rubbed his thumb across Luke’s lower lip and then kissed him. Then he walked Luke over to the bed, pulled down the comforter and climbed in, pulling Luke in with him. Shane wrapped his giant arms around Luke and kissed his neck and rubbed his hand across his chest.

“Let’s just go slow, relax, ok? Do you want to talk?”

“Talk? You don’t want to…”

“No, I want to, believe me but I want you to relax so you can enjoy yourself.”

“It just occurred to me that I don’t know what you like. I never even asked if you would bottom for me. If you’re not good with that, if you prefer to top then its ok, I’m a switch. I just wanted to make love to you.”

“Just so you know, I’m nervous too.”

Luke looked up at Shane.

“You’re still nervous too?”

“I am. Would you believe I changed my underwear three times? Yup, three times for them to get pulled off in seconds and dropped to the floor.”

“You seem so level, so calm.”

“I am anything but that. You should see me before a fight, I am a total mess. Declan, he always grounds me. Honestly, if it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be who I am today. Dec is one of the few people I know who genuinely loves me and would do anything for me. He has gone through a lot of shit with me in my personal life.”

“Do you love him too?”

“Yes, but why does it sound like you are asking in a more than friendship kind of way?”

“A little jealous, I guess.”

“Jealous? I told you Declan is straight.”

“I meant that he is so close to you.”

Shane didn’t want to continue talking about his and Declan’s relationship nor could he ever imagine trying to explain it, sometimes it was hard for him to even figure out.

“Well right now you are very close to me and I wouldn’t mind you being even closer.”

Shane reached down and began tugging at Luke’s cock. Luke reached for the lube and then positioned himself so he could slip his fingers inside Shane to loosen him up. Shane leaned up and kissed Luke.

“Shane, I’m going to say this now, I am not going to last long. I’m so excited right now just touching you that my cock actually hurts.”

“The first time is always the fastest. We’ve got all night and you, my hot friend have at least eight condoms to use.”

Luke’s eyes almost popped out of his head but then he gave Shane the most adorable, devilish grin. He kissed his belly and then his cock before removing his fingers and reaching for the condoms.

“I feel like a kid on Christmas morning.”

“Then I suggest you open your present, roll it on and then get playing.”

Luke could barely roll the condom on he was so excited and nervous.

“So uh, want me on my knees?”

“I prefer you like that on your back so I can see your face while I’m making love to you.”

“Oh, ok.”

Shane laid there while Luke kissed him from head to toe, stopping at his lips, neck and nipples. Then he kissed his way back down his belly and teased his cock with his tongue before aligning himself with Shane’s hot ass and pushing his hard cock inside him, never taking his eyes off of Shane’s as he continued to push until he was fully seated inside him.

“You ok? You’re so quiet.”

Shane never had an emotional connection like he had with Luke. It scared him. Right now he was feeling so much more than just pleasure.

“You feel so good inside me.”

Luke loved hearing that and with that said, he started to really move and the more he got Shane moaning the faster he moved. He was trying to hold out as long as he could but when he saw Shane jerking himself off and begin to cum, he let go and came too. He pulled out and then crawled up the bed and kissed Shane. They were both sweaty, sticky and exhausted.

“So what’s it like to have sex with Hartless?”

Luke looked into Shane’s eyes and whispered, “Fucking hot.”

Shane smiled.

C
HACE AND KYLE HAD
worked through the night. The killer was one step ahead and no matter how many clues, numbers or victims he had left behind, they still couldn’t seem to get that break they needed to catch the sick creature who had now killed nine innocent women.

“Chief Manning has Detectives St. Paul, Donovan, Sawyer and my lil bro Travis coming in for this meeting with the FBI today.”

“Yeah, I also heard he has Little Miss Sunshine coming in with her forensic team. I can’t wait.”

“Chace, you need to get that woman out of your system or she will make you go insane.”

“Pfftt…I am not letting her little hands or her smart mouth touch any part of my sexy body.”

“Tell me, did you picture her hands caressing your body or was she doing it with her mouth when you put together that last statement?”

“Shut the fuck up, Kyle. That woman is the last…”

“Hello!”

Chace looked up and there she stood,
that woman
.”

“Good morning, Chloe.”

“Doc.”

“I just wanted to drop off these files for you to familiarize yourselves with before our meeting later on today.”

“Thank you, Chloe.”

“Yeah, what he said.”

Chloe put her hand on her hip, tilted her head and gave Chace a dirty look.

“Detective, you are by far one of the rudest men I have ever come across.”

“He’d be in a better mood if he wasn’t pulling an all-nighter with me and was able to get some…”

“Kyle, shut up.”

Chloe chuckled.

“I don’t think it would matter, I can’t imagine anyone wanting to go home with you unless they were highly intoxicated.”

Chace gritted his teeth and his upper lip curled up as if he was going to growl.

“Tell that to the three women I had devouring up this beautiful body of mine the other night. I could nail any woman I wanted to, sober women included.”

Chace dropped the file on the desk and walked out. If he looked at Chloe for one minute longer he may have strangled her.

Kyle leaned over and whispered, “Those women, they were all intoxicated.”

Chloe covered her mouth and giggled.

Ace was up early, actually he never went to bed. He drank until he felt numb. Declan got one of the manager’s to drive him home, since he himself had quite a bit to drink. Ace decided he needed to shower and then head over to the firehouse and file his papers for a transfer. He knew it wouldn’t be an immediate transfer so he planned to see if he could get a leave of absence until the transfer went through.

Lucy needed to talk to Ace. She didn’t care what her parents thought, she loved him. She decided she would go to the house under the pretense of picking up her things and see if she could change his mind.

Ace stepped into the shower and stood there under the hot steamy water for a few minutes just trying to relax. Suddenly the shower door opened and Lucy was there…naked.

“Lucy, you can’t…”

“Ace, please don’t make me go, I…”

“We can’t do this.”

“I know you love me and I love you too.”

Ace stood there with the water beating down on him. He couldn’t take his eyes off of Lucy and that was becoming a growing problem, a problem which was causing his brain to freeze up leaving him to think with his other head.

“I, I do love you but…”

Lucy leapt at Ace. She jumped into his arms and any thought he had of sending her away flew out the shower door. He kissed her so hard, then he lifted her up and Lucy wrapped her legs around him and he rested her back up against the shower wall and slammed his hard cock into her over and over until they were both exhausted and now sitting on the floor of the shower in each other’s arms.

“Yesterday was the worst day of my life Ace, promise you won’t ever leave me again?”

Ace just sat there. He didn’t know what to say. He was sure nothing had changed and her parents were still horrified and angry. Ace cleared his throat as he tried to stand up from the shower floor.

“Unless your parents have had a sudden change of heart…”

Lucy sprung up from the shower floor and grabbed Ace by the wrist as he tried to step out of the shower.

“No, I know you love me. I know you do.”

Ace turned and pulled Lucy into a hug.

“I do love you, so much, Lucy. It’s because I love you so much though that I can’t…”

“Please, please…”

Ace pulled back and held Lucy’s hand.

“Your parents are your world. I never had that and I see the special bond you have with them. I can’t break that bond. I don’t want you to turn your back on your parents. I know that you would end up hating me for it.”

“You could be my family now, we could have one of our own. You’re my future. They will just have to be my…past.”

“They are your present, I’m your past now and there is someone out there that is worthy of you to be your future, Lucy.”

Lucy pulled her hand from Ace’s. She couldn’t hold back the tears anymore.

“You were going to propose, you love me. Why are you doing this to us?”

Ace was a bit shocked that Lucy knew he was going to propose.

“I was going to propose last night.”

“I accept.”

“Lucy you know your father would kick my ass if I married you now. He hates me. He feels betrayed and humiliated. When your brothers finally get a flight back and find out what went down at the wedding, they will come beat the crap out of me too. Thank God their flight home was cancelled or I’d be in ICU right now.”
