Chapter 19
Laura
I woke up the next morning feeling groggy but surprisingly well–rested. Talon’s arm was draped over my waist, his breath warm on the back of my neck.
As the fog of sleep cleared, thoughts of yesterday came flooding in confronting Craig, watching him get thrown into the back of an SUV, knowing he was likely dead by now, or at least wishing he was A wave of emotions hit me relief, guilt, anger, happiness. But mostly I felt an overwhelming sense of freedom. For the first time in years, I didn’t have to be afraid
I turned in Talon’s embrace to look at him. He was still asleep, his face peaceful. I studied his features the strong line of his jaw, the growing length of his thick black beard, his long wispy eyelashes. How could I have gotten so lucky!
As if sensing my gaze, his eyes fluttered open. A slow smile spread across his lips as he looked at me.
“Morning, angel” he murmured, his voice heavy with sleep.
“Morning. I replied with a grin, as a mischievous thought crossed my mind.
I began trailing kisses down his chest and abs as I moved lower beneath the sheets. I could feel his body responding, his muscles tensing in anticipation. I felt a chuckle rumble through him when I reached his cock, already half–hard with morning wood. “Little minx,” he groaned as I eagerly took him into my mouth.
He shifted to give me better access, his hand winding its way into my hair. I swirled my tongue around his tip before taking him in deeper, loving the way he throbbed, hardening fully in my mouth.
“Fuck, Laura,” he growled, his hips bucking slightly.
I hollowed my cheeks, sucking harder as I bobbed my head up and down on his shaft. He gasped, his grip on my hair tightening as I relaxed my throat and took him in fully, to the hilt.
I picked up the pace – I wanted desperately to make him come undone with my mouth, to feel him release into my throat. But with one swift movement, he had me flipped onto my back, pinned under his piercing green gaze.
“No fair,” I giggled, wiping my mouth with the back of my hand. “I wasn’t done.”
He shifted to hover over me, a feral look in his eyes, caging me in with his muscular arms. “You’re in
For
now.
I giggled and wriggled, but he held me down effortlessly. His eyes blazed with hunger as his lips crashed into me, his tongue seeking mine in a deep, passionate kiss that left us both breathless.
I ached for him, my pussy slick with desire as he pinned my knees up by my head and focused his attention between my thighs
I arched my back as his tongue found my clit, circling it with expert precision. He held my legs firmly in place while he devoured me, alternating between long licks and small flicks that had me squirming and moaning beneath him. My hands tangled in his hair as he pushed two fingers inside me, curling them to hit that perfect spot.
“Oh god,” I breathed, my hips bucking against his face.
He growled against my core, sending shivers through me. His free hand moved to my hip, holding me down as he continued his delicious assault. I could feel the pressure building, my muscles tensing as I neared the edge.
“Please, Talon,” I whimpered, my hands clutching the sheets.
He chuckled darkly against my skin, the vibrations intensifying the sensations. “Please what, angel? Use your words.”

I need you inside me,” I begged, “Please, fuck me”
With a growl, he surged up my body and captured my lips in a searing kiss as he buried himself inside me in one smooth thrust. We both cried out at the sensation. He stilled for a moment, resting his forehead against mine as we savored the feeling.
“Fuck,” he groaned. “you feel so good wrapped around my cock.”
He began to move, gripping my hips, slamming into me at a punishing pace, and 1 felt myself climbing toward the edge
“That’s it, angel,” he murmured, his eyes locked on mine. “Come for me.”
His words sent me tumbling over the edge. I cried out his name, spiraling into waves of pleasure as he found his own release. With a deep groan he pulled out, spilling his seed on my stomach before collapsing to the bed beside me in a breathless, twitching heap.
I trailed a finger down my belly, bringing it up to my lips for a taste. “Guess your pull–out game is stronger than I thought.” I giggled teasingly, planting a kiss on his cheek before hopping to my feet and running for the shower.
It wasn’t long before he stepped in behind me, joining me under the hot spray. As the water cascaded over us, he wrapped his arms around me, nuzzling into my neck. I leaned into him, savoring the feeling of safety and contentment
“So,” he murmured, his lips brushing against my ear, “what do you wanna do today?”
I turned in his arms, looking up at him as I considered the question. It felt weird to have no immediate concerns or threats looming over us.
“Honestly? I kind of just want to stay in bed all day and watch movies. Maybe order some pizza later.”
Talon grinned, pressing a kiss to my forehead. “That sounds perfect, angel.”
We finished our shower and got halfway dressed. He was obviously trying to kill me, wearing nothing but dark gray sweatpants slung low on his hips. I was swimming in their matching hoodie. His eyes lingered on my legs, a smile tugging at his lips while we made our way downstairs.
As Talon made coffee, I curled up on the couch and scrolled through movie options on my phone.
Just as we were about to make our way back to bed, we heard someone walk in the front door. Jake appeared in the doorway, running a hand through his disheveled hair.
“Morning,” I said hesitantly, “everything okay?”
“Just got off the phone with Shadow. They finished their interrogation.”
I swallowed, my stomach clenching. “And?”
“He’s dead,” Jake said bluntly. “Shadow sent me a recording of the final act, that sick fuck… in case you wanted to watch.”
“No,” I replied meekly. “I think I’m good on that.”
“Probably for the best. It’s a fucking bloody mess. But he spilled some interesting information first.”
Talon’s hand found its home on the small of my back. “What kind of information?
Jake glanced between us before continuing. “Turns out Craig wasn’t working alone…. he had help. Someone on the inside.
One of our ownL
I felt Talon stiffen beside me. “Who?” he growled.

“Where is he?” Talon asked, his voice low and dangerous.
“That’s the thing.” Jake said grimly “No one’s seen him since yesterday. It dider’s show up for work this mening, His phone’s going straight to voicemail
“So, he’s a snake and a bitch. Talon growled. “I’ll find him.”
“What are you going to do to him?” I asked quietly.
Jake’s expression darkened. “We handle it. Club style
Talon nodded in agreement, his body tense with anger.
“Tonight,” Jake continued. “Church. Ledger’s gonna round up the guys”
Talon spun on his heel and headed for the stairs, but I was hot on his tail. I had questions, and I wanted answers.
“Sorry, angel. I need a raincheck on our movie date,” he said, trading his sweats for jeans and pulling a t–shirt over his head
“What exactly did Jake mean by “club style?” I asked as he sat on the edge of the bed to lace up his boots
Talon paused, his jaw clenching as he considered how much or how little he should tell me. He turned to face me, his green eyes intense.
“There are some things about club life that.. well, it’s better if you don’t know all the details,” he said carefully. “Just know. that we have ways of dealing with traitors and threats to the club.”
A chill ran down my spine as the implications of his words set in. “You’re going to kill him.” I said quietly. It wasn’t a question.
Talon nodded grimly. “Most likely. Or he’ll be marked as a traitor and ran out of our territory.”
“Marked?” I murmured.
“Visibly, and permanently.. with a branding iron. Lets other MCs know that he’s not to be trusted. He’d live out the rest of his days as nothing, nobody,

“Laura,” Talon said softly, kneeling in front of me. “I know this isn’t easy for you to hear. But this is part of the life. The club, our brotherhood it’s built on two things. Loyalty and blood. Club law is clear- betrayal will be punished. The prospect was well aware of that, so now he pays the price”
