Along Came a Demon (Shadow Demons 1): A Bones MC Romance
Along Came a Demon: Chapter 7

By the time they got to Alex’s suite, Merrily was trembling, not all of it from fear. Whatever happened over the next couple of days — or hours — she would handle because she did have faith in Alex. Whether or not they continued their relationship, Merrily was certain he would protect her and Rose, no matter the threat. Breaking into Giovanni’s system had proven to her just how many resources these guys had.

Before she’d devoted all her time to having and raising Rose, she’d gone to camps for gifted high school students and seen for herself what all was out there. She’d been exposed to high-tech equipment, the latest developing software, and military-grade encryption, especially once they figured out her talents. None of that compared to what these guys had. That “project room,” as they call it, was a geek’s paradise. The computer system they’d had her working with was a wet dream. She doubted anyone outside government had anything remotely close to what they were rocking. These guys could do whatever they wanted. That included keeping a single mother and her small daughter safe. She’d believe in them because they’d proven themselves already. Especially Alex.

This time, Alex took an elevator straight to his suite from the project room. He’d started kissing her long before the doors opened, and she’d done her share of kissing back. Alex shrugged out of his shirt, urging her to do the same. He didn’t say a word, just ran his hands and lips over each expanse of skin she revealed.

Their breathing was ragged, Merrily’s as well as Alex’s. It seemed she lost her mind every single time he touched her. Part of her said it was too fast, that he was too good to be true, but her heart recognized him as the man she’d forever want above all others. His body told her he felt the same, but Merrily tried not to read too much into it. It might be the truth, but she was intelligent enough to know that Alex was a worldly man. Even if his body said one thing, his mind might resist. Didn’t mean she wasn’t giving him every opportunity to come to his senses if the need arose.

Right now, however, she just wanted to take comfort in his touch. She wanted him working her body with that magnificent body of his. The hold he had on her, both his brawny arms wrapped tightly around her body, was possessive. The stubble of his face scraped over the tender skin of her breasts, and she cried out. All of it was so wonderful, so erotic and beautiful she knew she’d found heaven. However long it lasted, Merrily would take it.

Alex seemed to love handling her, placing her exactly where he wanted her whether it was above him, facing away, or securely under him. She knew she loved that he could. He was so strong and powerful, his muscles heavy and large, she never failed to feel tiny next to him. That blatant show of strength was a mighty turn-on for her. In her mind, it meant he was powerful enough to protect what he claimed as his own. For whatever reason, he’d claimed her and Rose. Merrily was certain of it.

She was on the verge of a momentous discovery about herself and her predicament, but the pleasure soon rose above everything else. Reflection could wait. What she was experiencing currently was mind-scrambling. Her body was on fire! All of it, every single ounce of pleasure, was all because of Alex.

“God, Merrily,” he panted as he rose above her. “Need you so fucking much!”

“Then take me,” she whispered. “Anything you need is yours.” She wrapped her arms around his neck, meaning what she said. If he needed, she’d provide. Just as he was providing for her.

With a ragged groan, Alex sank into her, his cock a hot, pulsing, living thing inside her. The heat threatened to sear her to the bone. It had been like this the other times as well, but this seemed more… intimate? Something she couldn’t name. Nearly like it was their first time together, though, by now, they knew each other’s bodies well. He gazed into her eyes, his blue ones piercing and intense and so lovely she was mesmerized, unable to pull her gaze away even if she’d wanted to. He was telling her something. With his eyes. With his body. Something he didn’t seem to be able to voice. His brows were drawn together almost in confusion, as if he couldn’t quite grasp the situation.

“I…” He swallowed. “Merrily…”

She threaded her fingers through the hair at his nape and pulled him to her for a kiss. She tried to pour all her gratitude and budding feelings for him into her kiss. Merrily absolutely wanted him to know she didn’t consider this payment for him protecting her and Rose. Even if he saw it as such, she didn’t. She’d give herself to him over and over, as often and as much as he needed, simply because he needed. If he got to the point he no longer wanted her… Well. She’d figure that out when the time came.

Once he took over the kiss, he thrust his tongue deep, licking over and over. He tasted like mint and musk and man. Though he pinned her tightly to the bed with his big body, his arms didn’t loosen their hold. He still had them wound around her like he was afraid she’d escape. Not that she minded. It was just one more thing she loved, one more thing to make her feel safe and cherished.

The driving rhythm Alex set was jarring. Hard and rough. Merrily found she needed rough. The more he kissed her, the harder he fucked her. The harder he fucked her, the more Merrily found herself responding. Her fingers dug into the muscles of his back, clawing with each jolt of pleasure she got. It wasn’t long before her climax approached, and it promised to be nothing short of explosive, unlike anything she’d experienced thus far.

Her breaths shallowed. Her body tensed.

“Now,” he growled. “Come on my cock, my Merrily.”

With a shriek, she did. Her body spasmed out of control. She thrashed in his arms so hard he seemed to have trouble containing her. Likely he was afraid of squeezing her too tightly. Instead of reprimanding her, however, Alex praised her. She wasn’t exactly sure what he said because of the intense roaring in her ears, but his tone was clear. At the peak of her orgasm, she clamped down on him so that he threw he head back and yelled to the ceiling. Merrily felt his cock jerk inside her as he held himself buried deeply inside her. At once, she felt the hot jolt of his seed hitting her inside, the thought so erotic it triggered another orgasm for her, though not as powerful as the one she’d just experienced. It was as if her body wanted more of him. Wanted his entire essence.

When he collapsed atop her, his breathing as ragged as hers, he finally loosened his hold on her but didn’t let her go completely. Instead, he rolled them so that she lay sprawled over him, then pulled the duvet over them. They lay in silence for a long while. So long, Merrily had started to drift.

“My Merrily,” he murmured. “What am I going to do with you?”

She wasn’t sure if she was supposed to answer. Normally, she’d figure it was a rhetorical question. Now, she had a pressing need to convey to him.

“You never answered my question the other day,” she said, not meeting his gaze. He stilled beneath her, cupping her face in both of his hands so she had to look at him.

“What’s that, baby?”

“I asked you if you’d break my heart.” She met his gaze steadily, though inside she knew she would shatter if he answered wrongly. “When a powerful man such as yourself takes a woman not his equal, he tends to use her and throw her away because he’s either looking for a woman more suited for a wife, or because he’s already got a wife. If that’s the case, he just needs a woman to do things his wife won’t. Is that what you intend? To use me and throw me away?” When his expression flared to anger, she hastily continued. “Because, if that’s your plan, I’m okay with it, but I want to know up front. I’ll be perfectly honest with you — and this is only because you promised to be honest with me, not any attempt to guilt you into any kind of relationship — I’m growing to care for you very much. If it’s not reciprocated –”

He cut her off with a kiss that started out rough, but quickly turned tender. Languid sweeps of his tongue coaxed her to kiss him back. She was helpless not to. Alex’s hands threaded through her hair once again. He seemed to have this need to dominate her, even when he was being gentle. Always, he seemed to control her movements. Which, Merrily admitted to herself, she found hot as hell. There was never a time he pressed her to do something her body wasn’t completely ready for, even if her mind was a little hesitant. Even then, he managed to get her so crazy for him she just let her body take over.

When she relaxed once more, Alex ended the kiss gently before holding her gaze with his. “I’m not using you, Merrily. I won’t lie and tell you I’ve never used a woman for my own pleasure before, but they always knew the score.”

“Why me? I’m nothing but baggage to you.” Saying it out loud hurt her, but Merrily plowed on. “I’m not in any way your equal in life. Your circle of friends will always see me like Victoria did.”

Now, he just looked pissed off. “Oh, come on, Merrily. You know better than that.” He swatted her ass for good measure, which made her yelp. His lips quirked before he resumed his scowl. “The only reason Victoria treated you the way she did was because you were playing the part of a servant. I’m one of the richest men in the world. All of us are. Some of them, like Giovanni, don’t venture into the public, but those of us who do are so far above everyone else we could give a shit what they think. Everyone wants our favor. To do that, they can’t earn our displeasure. No matter what they think of you, they will never disrespect you where I will ever learn of it.”

“Look, it’s not so much about me. I just…” She took a deep breath, again fighting back tears. “I don’t want to embarrass you.”

He looked at her like she’d grown two heads. Then chuckled.

“What? It’s not funny!” Once she voiced her outrage, Alexei gave in to a full-bodied laugh until tears streamed from his eyes down his temples. “Let me up. Now!” Merrily tried to push off him, but Alex was having none of it. He simply rolled them until he pinned her beneath him once more. Despite her irritation, Merrily couldn’t help but feel a thrill at being helplessly trapped.

“Okay, okay! I’m sorry,” he soothed. Then he ruined it by burying his face in her neck and continuing to laugh.

“I’m less than amused,” she groused. “I don’t see anything so damned funny!”

“You? Embarrass me?” Another snort of laughter. “Baby, I’ll be the one embarrassing you because I’ll be glued to your side, never letting another man so much as glance your way without me giving him killing looks.” He wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, then grinned down at her. Then his gaze drifted lower to her jutting breasts. They were small but proud, the nipples puckering as if to tempt him.

“How would that embarrass me?”

Alex seemed distracted by her chest, turning his head from side to side as he viewed her, as if considering which peak he wanted to devour first. Merrily wanted to be outraged, but instead, she subtly arched her back. Just to see what would happen.

With a growl, Alex dove for her right breast even as he held the left one in a firm grip. He found the nipple of that one and pinched firmly until she cried out from the conflicting sensations. He flicked her other nipple with his tongue before biting gently at the same time he pinched the other.

“Ahh!” Merrily nearly screamed. She wasn’t sure if it was pleasure or pain, but she knew she’d just grown wet for him in a rush. “Sweet God! Alex!”

He said nothing, merely wrapped his free arm around her like a vise while he continued to suck one breast and knead the other. There was nothing gentle about it either. Surprisingly, Merrily found she loved this side of him. Loved riding the edge of pleasure and pain.

When he lifted his head, there was intensity and lust like Merrily had never witnessed in him or any other man. No one had ever looked at her like he did. He pushed himself up so that he knelt in the V between her legs, her thighs draped over his.

“So, what are you going to do to me?” The question came out throaty. More of an invitation than a demand to know.

“Fuck you,” he said without hesitation. “Hard.”

Lust hit her hard and she cried out, her hands going to her own breasts. She pinched them like he had even as she spread her legs wider, inviting him to take what he wanted.

“Fuck!” The expletive was whispered as he watched her manipulate her nipples. “That’s it, my Merrily. Pinch them. Pull on those needy little buds.”

She did, following his instructions as he watched.

“Have you ever made yourself come in front of someone?” God, he was dirty! And she was following him into a pit of lust so deep she’d never dig her way out.

Merrily shook her head. “I have a feeling I’m about to.”

The cocky grin he threw her was almost more than she could take. The man was seriously sexy. And wicked. Deliciously wicked.

“Keep working your tits,” he said, his hand dropping to his cock. That big fist curled around his impressive shaft, stroking lazily. “Keep your legs spread wide. I want to see how wet you get.”

Merrily obeyed, tugging and rolling her nipples with increasing roughness. She loved his gaze on her while she touched herself. The harder she pinched, the heaver his eyes became. She got the feeling he needed to do this to her himself but was unwilling to mistakenly hurt her. After several minutes, Merrily was unable to keep her hips still and didn’t try. She thrust her pelvis at him, lifting herself off the bed as she continued to play with her nipples.

Her cries mingled with his rough growls as they moved together. She, thrusting her chest and hips at him; he, working his cock over her. His cock was hard and angry, the tip a deep purple as he stroked himself. Merrily wondered if he’d come on her or simply thrust inside her and empty himself there. She honestly didn’t care which as long as she got to watch his face as he released. She loved the way his neck muscles corded and the veins stood out starkly as he strained to hold himself back. When he came, it was even better. The look of ecstasy on his face was enough to turn her on all over again.

She spread her legs wider, pulling her knees up to leave her pussy completely vulnerable to him. He could see everything. Could see how wet she was for him.

“Look at you,” he whispered, his eyes glued to her quivering sex. “My innocent little wanton.”

“Not so innocent.” She cupped her breasts tightly, lifting them to drag her tongue over one nipple. “I have a kid.”

He chuckled. “Just because you have a child doesn’t mean you’re not a sexual innocent. I’m willing to bet every single thing I’ve done with you — other than penetrative sex — is a first for you.” His cock pulsed in his fist. A pearly drop of pre-cum beaded the tip. “There are so many things I’m going to show you. So many things I’m going to do to your little body.”

“I’m on fire, Alex,” she whispered. She slid her hands down her body to her sex, parting the bare folds so he could see her entrance. Trailing one finger around and around, gathering moisture, she moaned, rubbing her clit in a slow circle. Heart pounding, hands shaking, she lifted her finger to his mouth.

“Vixen,” he hissed before engulfing her finger in his mouth, sucking hard and swirling his tongue around the tip. “Mmmm.” He thrust his hips, his cock fisted tightly in his hand. “When I fuck you, my Merrily, it’s going to be hard and fast. You ready for that?”

In answer, she dipped two fingers inside her. Then three. “Give me everything you’ve got, Alex. Fuck me hard and make me come.”

“Not until you make yourself come. I want to watch you rub your little clit. Want to see you fucking yourself with your fingers.”

“What if I wanted to rub my clit with your cock? Would you let me touch you, too?”

He growled, scooting closer to her. His cock was long and thick. When he let go of it, his dick lay on her belly, nearly reaching her belly button. Pearly drops painted her skin with each pulse of his member. Merrily couldn’t help herself. She dragged her fingertip through those drops and stuck her finger in her mouth, tasting his very essence.

“Fuck!” he bit out. “So fucking hot!” He put his hands on her hips, holding her gaze as she played with herself.

With shaking hands, she used one to rub her clit while reaching for his cock with the other. Could she really do this? More than anything, in that moment, she wanted this act. She wanted to be the girl who did things like this with her man. And Alexei Petrov was definitely her man. She gripped his cock, trapping it between her palm and belly. She moved her body so she jerked him off like that, reveling in the leaking pre-come with each stroke.

“You’re going to be the death of me, woman. Get on with it!”

Sweat broke out over his body, his breathing coming in ragged pants. Beads of sweat dripped from his brow to her belly and breasts, yet he still let her play. Rigid muscles stood out over his torso and arms, veins growing with every second his body was tense.

He pulled back, urging her to do as she’d suggested earlier. When he nodded, she eased back until the head of his cock tucked against her clit. At the first touch against her swollen clit, Merrily trembled. A gasp escaped her as she continued to move and rub, masturbating herself with his dick. Up and down she let it slip, letting it glide with a mixture of her moisture and his. The sight of them together, of his cock and her bare pussy together, was erotic as hell. She looked up at him helplessly, not understanding her body’s reaction. All she knew was that it felt too good to stop.

Over and over she rubbed, her heart pounding, her body out of control. Cries came from her lips as the pleasure and pressure inside her increased. An orgasm was just out of her reach, so close yet she was unable to catch it. She rocked her hips, tossing her head from side to side as she masturbated on his cock head until the slit in the center engulfed her swollen clit. The pleasure was instantaneous. And explosive.

Merrily screamed, a long, loud wail. Her body wasn’t her own, but a writhing mass of nerves that only wanted Alex’s cock. Wanted his body inside hers, mastering her, taking everything she had to give him and returning it tenfold.

The second the pressure started waning, the contractions in her lower body easing, Alex gave a brutal yell, gripping her hips and flipping her over. He pressed his hand across her upper back, forcing her upper body down even as he pulled her hips up so she was on her knees, her ass in the air. In one swift, brutal thrust, he entered her, his cock forced inside her body past the muscle inside her pussy until he was buried deep, his body flush against her. One arm slid around her waist as he clamped her to him in a brutal hold. Then he began to fuck her.

Short, sharp snaps of his hips plunged his cock deep. That didn’t seem to be enough for him. He bent one leg, gripping her ass with both hands, his fingers digging into her flesh as he continued to fuck her. He pounded out a hard, staccato rhythm, sweat landing on her back with every smack of her ass against his belly.

“Fuck!” He threw back his head even as he pulled her against him harder and harder, meeting each pull of her hips backward with a surge of his hips forward. They slammed together almost violently. Merrily was along for the ride. She knew she’d feel this later, but right now, it was more pleasure than she’d ever dreamed of.

Finally, Alex must have taken all he could stand. He pulled her legs back so she fell to her belly. Without ever leaving her body, he lay on top of her, pumping into her with a furious frenzy. He yelled as he humped her, fucking her harder than she’d ever dreamed. Then he froze just before slamming into her one last time, his cock pumping seed deep into her. Alex bellowed to the ceiling, a brutal, primal sound that hurt her ears. But she found herself responding in kind, their yells mingling in the vast room.

The second Alex collapsed on top of her, Merrily whimpered, her orgasm still making her pussy tingle. She still pushed her hips at him, even pinned as she was, needing that last little bit. Alex reached around, finding her clit with his fingers, and tugged as he thrust inside her again. This time, when Merrily came, her vision blurred, and she was dizzy. With one last, ragged scream, she went limp beneath Alex, knowing she’d never been so completely sated in her entire life.

And… she was completely, totally, head-over-heels in love with Alexei Petrov.
