“Yeah, little bitch. You wanna talk shit? Can’t do that too well with my fat cock in your mouth, can you?”
Ash roared with laughter, making me want to strangle him. “This is not my fault, Rhodes. You heard the way he was talking to me.” He sucked in a sharp breath. “Fuck, use your teeth again and you’ll regret it.”
“All those people over there know I’m in here, dicking you down like the dirty cum slut you are.”
black tank he was sporting, which had a neon orange silhouette of a woman’s body bending over. She had a bunny tail and ears, and the word beneath her read #fuckbunnies.
As I looked, I caught a glimpse of Misha and realized he was wearing huge goggles. Fucking massive, bug-eyed...
“You boys didn’t tell me we had a guest,” she said with a flirtatious smirk. “What’s your name?” Two low-pitched growls were her answer, and I smacked Talon on the arm. “Don’t be rude!” I leaned around him and waved. “Hi, I’m Palmer.”
Just when I thought they had maybe a shred of humanity in there—doing what they did for that kid—they go and kill a man because he smelled like horse shit.
I slowly looked up at Misha who wasn’t looking at Tal, but down at me. He lifted a brow, as if to ask me the question I was already asking myself. Are you going to allow this?
Talon turned to find me glaring at him. “What?
“Oh hey, Bun-Bun,” he said, opening his arms like I was going to just snuggle on in there like a bug in a rug.
She hit the ground hard, the liquor nestled in her cleavage spilling all over her as she sucked in gasping breaths, trying to regain the air I’d knocked the fuck out of her.
“Don’t let me catch you trying your whore shit on what belongs to me again, or next time I’ll slice your nipples off and wear them as earrings.” Oh my fucking gods, did I just say that? I threw my head back and cackled at the mental image.
“All of them are off-limits!”
Next thing I knew, Talon was hopping the bar and picking me up, wrapping my legs around his waist. My hands sank into his red hair, and his blue eyes twinkled with desire and mischief. “I’m harder than an over-toasted slice of bread right now, Bunny,” he purred into my ear and rolled his hips, demonstrating his point.
If you don’t want murder here tonight though, you better tell all these motherfuckers that you’re mine.” Tal leaned back, bringing a hand up to fist my hair. “Is that what I am? Yours?” He leaned in and licked my lips, causing them to open on a gasp. “Aren’t you?” I challenged, darting in and nipping his bottom lip. Grinning maniacally, Talon spun around so he was facing the crowd. “Exiled dick is off-limits!”
Later, I want to eat your pussy for like eighty-six minutes. Pencil me in.
“You just told the entire fucking world that my dick belongs to you,” Rhodes sneered, getting in my face. I rolled my eyes.
“Yeah, Daddy. Introduce me.” The drink that Rhodes had just taken promptly sprayed out of his mouth,
“I’m just saying, he needs to blow some steam off. He is wound up. Look at the veins in his arms popping out.” They were totally bulging. I didn’t know what that had to do with me though.
The ghost laughed. There was something so familiar about the sound, but I couldn’t place it. “Fight him.”
He sounded exasperated, like he was finally seeing me for the first time. A complete wild card that no man or beast would ever control.
“And you!” Ash roared, pointing a finger at Rhodes who was warming up in the ring. “Of all the possible opponents!”
“I told you not to wander off, kukola.” I shivered at his words. “I’m already looking forward to making sure you don’t do it again.”
As it was, I was having a time trying to keep my damn demon under control.
“She’s crazy, Misha. I don’t know how else to say it. I didn’t trust her before, but she is honestly certifiable.
“You know the rules, man. You get in the ring? You fight. I’ll go easy on her, how about that?” The urge to punch him in his handsome face was strong. So strong.
Why are you doing this to yourself? She isn’t gonna stay.”
“She won’t stay. It’ll end up being too much. We’ll end up being too much.”
At the end of the day, we have each other and that’s it.
Oh, little doll, you’ve been such a bad, bad girl.
Rhodes was an absolute beast in the ring,
Palmer never should’ve shown up wearing bunny ears—something more aggressive was much better suited. Like a tiger or a bear.
“She makes me crazy.” I felt for him, because I was starting to feel the exact same way.
“She’s got that crazy look.”
“What the fuck?” he growled at us, accusation flaring in his eyes, like we’d known she could fight like a ninja.
Rhodes brought his hand to his mouth, and when he brought it forward, there it was. First blood. The little doll had drawn first fucking blood. The two of them were on their feet now, staring absolute fire at one another. “How’s the lip feel?” she taunted. He was done going easy. Using a burst of his enhanced speed—which was technically against the rules—he quickly landed a hit.
She grinned though, showing off her bloody smile, and I groaned. “Fuck me, that’s hot,”
Their punches landed at the same time, knocking both of them stupid. “Fucking idiots,” Ash rumbled, white-knuckling the rope now.
My demon woke up, zeroing in on Palmer. I needed her to shut the fuck up.
“Well, they certainly know how to feed the boys around here, don’t they?” he muttered, dropping his hand and righting himself so he could stand on his own. I was still staring at him like a dumbstruck idiot; I couldn’t seem to stop myself. He was just so... pretty. I’d never seen a man look anything less than rugged and rough. This one was almost feminine with his soft facial features, the high cheekbones, and slightly slanted eyes. His long, red hair fell in waves well past his shoulders.
As much as I thought I was over my past, the fear that had been instilled in me for years sprang to life. My laugh served as a spark to start the wildfire of my PTSD. My ass hit the floor first, and the next thing I knew, I was covering my head with my arms and trying to make myself as small as possible—which, given my size, was a fucking joke.
He stared off into the distance, deep in thought. How does a man look so pretty?
His legs were swinging back and forth,
Heat raced up my neck. I was a big guy, I always had been.
“Your laugh... It’s pretty great. Anyway, see you tomorrow.” Then he slipped out of the door, leaving me in a state of total fucking chaos. Talon became my first friend in that moment, and he didn’t even know how much he boosted my confidence with one conversation. That was Tal, though. He had big feelings and he loved hard.
“Who the fuck am I killing tonight? Give me a name, big guy.” Misha’s shoulders seemed to drop, which confused me. Clearly, he could handle himself, but I would always have his back. “Hey, what’s wrong, Mish?”
“You don’t get to just walk away from me. I said I was sorry. You just— You make me so crazy. I see the way guys look at you, and all I want to do is gut them because you’re mine. You’ll always be mine!”
He cupped my cheek. “I’ve waited so long for you to say that.” I felt his cock press against my stomach. “I know you want me. I want you so bad it hurts me, Palmer. Tell me you want me, that you want to feel me. That you want me to be the only man to know what your body feels like.”
I didn’t fight. I didn’t want to fight. All I wanted was whatever he wanted. He was happy and so was I.
“They’re obsessed with me, Slade. You didn’t account for anyone else becoming as obsessed with me as you are.”
