Dagger (Devil's Fury MC 4) Page 7
Dagger moved closer and reached out with his free hand to tweak my nipple. I gasped, a little zing shooting through me. My clit started to throb and I wanted his hands on me. No, I wanted more than that. I needed him. The sensations swirling through me were nothing I’d ever experienced before, and I didn’t want the feelings to stop.
“Spread those legs, hermosa.”
Only Dagger had called me beautiful. More than once now. No one had ever said that to me before. Not even my parents. My mother had often told me how I should improve my looks if I ever wanted a husband. Now I had one, and he seemed to like me just as I was. I felt a tremor rake me from head to toe as I parted my thighs. Dagger groaned and yanked on his cock harder.
He trailed his fingers from my breast down my belly until he brushed the hair between my legs. My cheeks warmed again. I’d heard the women talking about waxing and shaving down there. I hadn’t been brave enough for any of that, but I’d found a pair of trimmers in the bathroom cabinet and had cut the hair really short. I only hoped whoever had left them wouldn’t want them back. I’d hidden them in my room after I realized I liked the shorter hair.
“So wet.” He parted the lips of my pussy and stroked his fingers over my clit. I cried out, my body going tight. Everything inside me clenched, and pleasure rolled over me. “Christ! Never had a woman as responsive as you, princesa.”
I whimpered, feeling nearly breathless from anticipation. I knew he was far from finished with me. If that had been a small taste of what I could expect, I eagerly awaited the rest. I spread my legs farther, inviting him to do as he pleased with me.
He swirled his fingers over my clit again before easing one inside me. Dagger curled it a little as he withdrew, and it was the most incredible sensation I’d ever felt. He did it again. And again. When he added a second finger, I nearly saw stars.
“I’m close to coming just watching you. Feeling you.” He worked his fingers in and out of me faster and harder. Before I knew what was happening, I’d come again, this one even stronger than the last. “Need you to take the edge off, solo te necesito a ti.”
“Santiago, please…”
He pulled his fingers free and knelt on the bed next to me. “You deserve more, dulzura.”
“You can take more time later. Right now, I just want… you. I want all of you.” I took a breath to steady myself. “Make me yours, Santiago. In every way.”
He covered my body with his, and I felt his cock brush against me. Dagger shifted his hips and slowly pushed into me. It burned as he stretched me, yet there was a hunger inside me that demanded to be filled. I lifted my hips, trying to pull him in deeper. He chuckled and kissed me, his lips and tongue dominating me. With one hard thrust, he entered me. I cried out and my body tightened, but the sharp burst of pain quickly warmed into so much more.
With my hands bound, I couldn’t reach for him, couldn’t hold on. He started thrusting, his strokes long and deep. Every time he bottomed out, he ground his pelvis against me, creating friction against my clit, making me beg for more.
“¡No pares!” I cried out, not wanting him to stop. I needed everything he had to give.
He growled and powered into me. It felt like I was electrified as I came again, my muscles clenching on his cock. He gripped my hip with one large hand, taking what he wanted. I felt the warmth of his release as he came inside me. My body trembled and I felt as if I were gasping for breath. As he withdrew from me, I realized he was still hard. I hadn’t known it was possible for a man to remain in that state after having an orgasm.
Fire lit his gaze as he flipped me over, then lifted my ass in the air. He drove into me again, taking me as if he were possessed.
“Mine!” Our bodies slapped together as he did as I’d demanded. Claimed me. He spread my ass cheeks and my heart stuttered a moment, worried he’d try to take me there, but he didn’t. “Need you to come again.”
I didn’t think I could. I felt wrung out. Dagger proved me wrong. He slid a hand down between my legs and worked my clit as he fucked me. He not only made me come again, but he pulled another two orgasms from me. My legs were barely holding me up when he started thrusting faster. He grunted as he came again, slamming into me again and again.
When he stilled, I heard his breath saw in and out of his lungs. I felt a little dazed, thoroughly used, and a million other things. I’d have to analyze my emotions later. I only wished I could see his face. Had this been enough for him? He’d said his ideal relationship would be with him, a woman, and another man. I felt as if I’d robbed him of that, of his future happiness. I closed my eyes and tried to picture Jared here with us.
I’d thought I would feel disgusted, or unsure. Honestly, the thought of the other man here, watching what Dagger had done to me, only made me ache. I didn’t think I could handle any more, my pussy was already sore, but my clit throbbed again. Maybe when Dagger returned with Luis, we could discuss our relationship again. Or more importantly, discuss the possibility of asking Jared to join us.
Dagger ran his hand down my spine, then leaned over, our bodies still joined, and pressed kisses along my shoulders. “Eso fue increible!”
It made me feel warm inside that he felt that way. It had been amazing for me, but I had nothing to compare it to. Dagger was the first man I’d ever wanted. Sex hadn’t been a concern for me, especially since having Luis. I’d have been content to never pair off with anyone, but Dagger had proven how wrong I’d have been. Anything that felt that amazing should be enjoyed as often as possible.
He withdrew from my body and got the keys, unlocking the cuffs. He gently rubbed my wrists and crawled back into the bed with me, pulling me against his chest. I went willingly, still trying to unjumble my thoughts. I felt the stickiness between my legs and realized we hadn’t used protection. He’d said he got tested regularly and was clean, and he wanted more children. There was a moment of panic before I realized that if we’d just created a child, I would love him or her with all my heart.
“What happens now?” I asked.
“What do you mean, corazoncito?”
I nibbled at my lip, trying to figure out exactly what I wanted to ask. “If I said I would be willing to try a relationship with you and Jared both, how would that work?”
He went completely still, only the thump of his heart making a sound. I worried I’d said something wrong, but then he started stroking my arm. Dagger took a breath, and another. It felt like forever before he spoke, and I knew he had to have been weighing his words. “I’d have to talk to Jared. He was pissed when he left here. It’s possible he wouldn’t want to be a part of this.”
That was true. He’d been angry when he slammed the door. “But what if he does?”
Dagger shifted us so that we lay on our sides facing one another. He cupped my cheek before running his fingers through my hair. “I’d make sure he understood it could be a one-time thing. If it was too much for you to handle, I wouldn’t ask you to keep him in our bed. You might be married to me, but if we included Jared in this relationship, you’d be married to him too. Maybe not on paper, but he’d be your husband just as much as I am.”
Luis would have two dads. It wasn’t conventional, but Jared had been sweet, and Dagger had proven to be willing to do anything for my son. I couldn’t imagine two more perfect men for the task of raising Luis. I didn’t know if I could handle both of them at the same time. And what would people say when we went out places? For that matter, what if their club didn’t like it?
I heard a door slam and scrambled under the covers. I didn’t know if people always dropped in unexpectedly, or if Dagger had merely forgotten to lock the door. Whatever the case, he reached for his underwear and pulled the boxer briefs on. He’d barely managed to cover himself before Jared entered the room. He froze inside the doorway, his gaze on me, then Dagger. I didn’t know what he was looking for as he studied Dagger, but his gaze swung back to me and he moved farther into the room, not stopping until he was next to the bed.
I bolted upright, clutching the sheet to me. What the hell? Did he seriously think Dagger would hurt me? On purpose? “What? Why would you ask that?”
Jared’s jaw tightened and something flashed in his eyes I couldn’t quite discern. I wasn’t sure if he was worried about me so much as he was pissed that Dagger had slept with me. “He can be rough. I heard the two of you went out tonight. You didn’t have to sleep with him as payment for dinner, or whatever else the two of you did while you were gone.”
I blinked. I was not only offended for myself, but for Dagger as well. I saw my husband’s shoulders tense, and knew he’d felt those words as if they were actual blows against his body. I reached for him, placing my hand on his shoulder. My left hand. Jared glanced down, saw my ring, and it seemed as if every part of him tensed.
“You’re fucking married?” he demanded as he focused on Dagger again. “So that’s it? I get pissed and walk out, so you marry the next convenient person?”
Dagger stood so fast the mattress sprang up and toppled me over. “I should beat the shit out of you for that. Take it back right fucking now! Zoe isn’t anyone’s second option. If you’d stuck around, all three of us might have ended up in this bed tonight, but no. You got bent over what I said and ran off like a little bitch.”
Jared sucked in a breath, then it was like he just physically and emotionally deflated as his head dropped, his shoulders hunched, and any fight he might have had left him. “I didn’t mean to disrespect your wife, Dagger. I came to apologize to you for running out earlier. It was a shock to find the two of you together in bed.”
I could only imagine how he felt. Even if the two of them hadn’t been exclusive, they’d still been together. Maybe Jared had hoped it would become more. It was clear he was hurting right now.
“I think the two of you need to talk,” I said. “Um, Jared, could you turn your back? I need to get dressed.”
Dagger turned toward me, braced his hands on the bed, and kissed me softly. “We’ll go in the other room. Why don’t you shower, then you can come join us? I think this might be a discussion for all of us.”
I nodded, and kissed him again. I pulled him closer and whispered in his ear, “I’ll accept the both of you, or at least try. He’s hurting and I feel partly responsible.”
He gave a nod and pulled away. I watched him put on his jeans before walking out with Jared. He pulled the door shut behind him, and I scurried out of the bed and into the bathroom. After taking the world’s fastest shower, and putting on some clothes, I braided my hair and tried to prepare myself for whatever would happen next.
I only hoped I was ready if Jared wanted to be part of our relationship. I’d opened that can of worms by telling Dagger I might be willing to take that step. Now it was time accept their decision, whatever it might be. He’d said we could try being together once and see if I could handle it. I had a feeling it would crush Jared to be kicked out after that one time, but I was grateful Dagger had given me an out.
I took a breath to steady myself, then went to find my men.
My men? Shit. I was already thinking of Jared as mine, as well as Dagger. Guess I was jumping in with both feet, and I’d just hope it didn’t blow up in our faces.

Jared
My mind was reeling as I tried to process everything. Dagger and Zoe were married. I knew they couldn’t have been legally married at the courthouse in front of a preacher because there hadn’t been time to get through all the red tape. But still… the fact he’d agreed to marry her still hurt like a bitch. Had he even thought about how it would affect me? Had he cared?
Sure he said if I’d stuck around all three of us could have ended up in bed together, but was that really the case? We’d talked about sharing a woman before, but not once in any of those discussions had we talked about getting married. How would something like that even work?
It felt like the room was closing in on me as I waited to hear more from Dagger, and possibly Zoe. I wasn’t running this time. I’d stay and listen, see what they had to say. But it didn’t change the fact they were together, had slept together, and I hadn’t even known about it until I’d walked in and found them in bed. Dagger hadn’t so much as taken the time to send me a text or try to call me. That didn’t exactly make me feel as if they wanted me to be part of their lives. The opposite, in fact. I felt like I’d intruded on them. Now Dagger felt like he owed me an explanation, or maybe it was more that Zoe was encouraging it.
I couldn’t remember ever feeling this fucked up or confused before. I clenched my hands so I wouldn’t rub my chest, where my heart lay aching. We’d never really said how we felt about each other, but I’d known for the last few weeks I was falling for Dagger. I just wasn’t so sure he felt the same about me. Especially now.
Chapter Seven
Dagger
Jared sat on the couch, his head in his hands as he stared at the floor. I’d never thought he’d find out about my relationship with Zoe by finding us in bed together. Even if we hadn’t been exclusive, I knew that had to have hurt. It was a dick thing to do. Next time, I’d make sure I locked my fucking door. At least then I could have prepared him better.
I honestly didn’t know what to do right now. Zoe had said she might give it a try, having a relationship with both of us, but I was concerned after Jared’s reaction both now and earlier. I didn’t know if him being a Prospect would cause issues with a long-term relationship. As long as he didn’t fuck up, I knew he’d eventually patch in, but for now I outranked him. He’d still know more club business than Zoe would, but I didn’t want it to cause problems between us. It hadn’t in the past, but we hadn’t been committed to each other either. Bringing him into my marriage as an equal could cause issues.
“You said you came to apologize,” I said. “Let’s start there.”
Jared sighed and looked up at me, regret clearly written across his face. “I shouldn’t have left the way I did. I know there are times you aren’t the Dagger I’ve been intimate with, that you have to be the Dagger who’s a patched member of Devil’s Fury. It hasn’t come up before when we weren’t around the club. It was wrong of me to walk out.”
I sat on the coffee table, facing him, and tried to think of what I wanted to say. Yeah, he’d pulled a bitch-ass move, but he wasn’t some pussy-whipped guy who’d want to sit on the sidelines either. He might not be as dominant as I was, but he wasn’t a pushover. In fact, I knew Jared could hold his own in a fight. But like it or not, if we were going to have a relationship with Zoe, he wouldn’t be the one in charge. If he couldn’t handle that, then I needed to know now.
“I get it. I really do,” I said. “But if you wanted something long-term with me, pulling shit like that wouldn’t fly. There will be times I give you an order as a member of this club, and other times I might give you an order that has nothing to do with Devil’s Fury and everything to do with me trying to keep you and Zoe safe.”
He held my gaze. “Me and Zoe?”
“She’s not sure if she can handle being with two men, and I don’t want to force that on her. If she wants to give it a try, then you’d have to go into it knowing it might be a one-shot deal. Without getting pissed or acting like a bitch if she says she can’t do it, that she just wants me.”
Jared shifted and I could see the spark of hope in his eyes. “But she’s willing to try?”
I nodded. “Yeah. Which brings me to another matter. I need to leave in the morning to get Luis. I’ll be gone at least a week, possibly longer. I don’t like the idea of leaving Zoe here alone. Would you be willing to either come check on her, or stay in the guest room so she has someone here when the club doesn’t have you doing shit?”
He rubbed his hands up and down his thighs and glanced away. I knew it was asking a lot of him. I’d had no intention of requesting Jared keep an eye on Zoe, but since he was here… Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut and asked someone else. I�
�d thought since he was familiar to Zoe, and he’d been nice to her before, maybe he would be the right choice. It seemed I may have been wrong. I could have flat out told him to do it, but that’s not what I wanted.
I caught sight of Zoe in my peripheral vision and held my hand out to her. She came into the room, took my hand, and I pulled her down onto my lap. Jared looked at her, and I could see he was undecided on what he should do. Right now, Zoe was the most important person in my life. I may not have chosen her as my wife, but that’s what she was just the same. With some luck, I’d already planted a baby in her. It had been shitty of me to take her bare without getting tested again, even though I’d gotten the all clear in the last few weeks. I should have protected her better, but I couldn’t deny I’d loved being inside her without a barrier between us. I’d never done that with anyone.
Zoe had promised to keep my secret, but if Jared ended up being a part of our lives, he’d need to know about my past. I wasn’t sure how he’d react, or if he’d end up blabbing to my brothers. I didn’t think he would, but I couldn’t be certain, which was part of why I hadn’t said shit to him about it yet. Wasn’t his business. That would change if he became a permanent part of my life with Zoe.
“We’ve talked before about having a woman as part of our relationship,” I told him. “And while we weren’t exclusive, if you decide to pursue something with me and Zoe, I’d have to ask you not to fuck around with anyone else. I won’t put her in danger if you can’t fully commit.”
“Can I have time to think about it?” he asked.
Zoe leaned into me and I tightened my hold on her. “Of course. What about the other thing? You willing to check on Zoe or stay here with her while I’m gone?”
