Fierce Betrayal: A Dad’s best friend/ Age gap romance (L.A. Ruthless Series Book 3)

Fierce Betrayal: Chapter 32



I roll out of bed, planting my feet on the solid wooden floor as I realize I’ve overslept. I stayed in Lucia’s bed until after four because I couldn’t tear myself away from her. I wish I could wake up next to her every morning, and to my surprise it’s not because I want to fuck her every second of every day—although there is that. But I want to be a part of every bit of her life. I imagine Matthias climbing into bed with us and chattering about dinosaurs or superheroes and it brings an unexpected smile to my face.

I’ve never thought about having kids of my own. It’s not that I’d decided not to have them, but I’ve never met anyone I wanted to be attached to for the rest of my life before. But now there is Lucia and the thought of her pregnant with my baby inside her brings out something primal in me. Not to mention the kid she’s already got is pretty fucking awesome and I’m as much in love with him as I am with his mother.

I pull on my jeans then run my hand through my hair and sigh. The sooner we tell Alejandro and Alana about us, the better—though hiding in the shadows was fun for all of two days, now I want the whole fucking world to know that she’s mine.

She’s not in the kitchen when I go to check, or the den. The house is eerily quiet and it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. I open the back porch door and hear Matthias scream and my heart races in my chest. I run toward the sound but when I get to the edge of the yard, I see him with Lucia and my father. He is clinging onto my father’s leg while Blue stands beside him wagging his tail. I feel a rush of relief quickly followed by anger at Harvey.

Matthias is scared of dogs and that asshole has his old hound running around here.

I look at Lucia wondering why she’s not putting a stop to this and I notice she is smiling as she looks at her son and my father. I look back and watch as Matthias gingerly reaches out his hand and scratches Blue behind the back of his ear, and that old dumb dog stands as still as a statue and lets him. My father bends down and whispers something in the kid’s ear that makes him smile. Then he lets go of my old man’s leg and steps closer to the dog. He is hesitant at first, but Blue drops his head slightly, allowing Matthias to pat his fur. If there’s one thing my father has done right in his life, it’s train that dog. He is the most obedient mutt I’ve ever come across.

I lean against the tree, my arms folded across my chest as I watch the scene before me and Matthias slowly grows braver with each passing second. When Blue lays down and rolls onto his back, the boy squeals with laughter and drops to his knees to rub the dog’s belly.

Lucia laughs too. Fuck she is beautiful when she smiles like that. She walks toward Harvey and wraps an arm around his waist before giving him a soft kiss on the cheek. He nods politely but then he steps away from her and she steps back too, as though she is hurt by his rejection. A pang of guilt gnaws at my chest. He’s not rejecting her, simply keeping his distance because I warned him to stay the fuck away from her and Matthias. She is so fucking hard to stay away from though. They both are. Like little magnetic rays of sunshine.

I walk over to them.

“Jax,” Matthias shouts. “Blue is letting me rub his belly.”

“He sure is, buddy.” I crouch down and ruffle his hair. “You want to come for a ride with me and your mom?”

He looks up at me, huge brown eyes shining with happiness. “Can I stay with Harvey and Blue?”

“Harvey might have things to do, Matthias,” Lucia replies.

“I got all the time in the world,” my father says but then he looks at me, knowing he should have kept his mouth shut.

“Can I stay with Harvey, Momma?” Matthias asks.

Lucia opens her mouth to reply, but then she looks at me instead, and now the three of them stare at me waiting for my response. My approval.

“Please, Jax?” Matthias asks.

“Can I trust you to stay here and look after him?” I ask my father.

“Sure. We’ll be right here in the yard playing fetch with Blue.”

I suck in a breath. “It’s your call,” I say to Lucia.

“If he won’t be a bother, Harvey,” she says with a smile.

“Not at all,” he smiles back at her. “This kid is the best company I’ve had for a long time.”

“Then of course you can stay.” She leans down and kisses his head. “But you behave and do as Harvey says, okay?”

“Okay. Thanks, Momma.”

We walk away, leaving Matthias and my father to play with Blue.

“That was incredible the way your dad did that,” she says as she smiles at me, her eyes sparkling in the sunshine. “Matthias was so scared when Blue licked his hand, but then your dad just really calmed him down.”

“Yeah? Well he always was good with animals.”

She reaches for my hand and squeezes it in hers. “Thank you for letting him stay, Jax. I know that wasn’t easy.”

“He’s your kid,” I say with a shrug and immediately feel like a complete jerk.

“Of course, but I know that you’re just looking out for us both,” she replies, taking no offense.

“You want to come for a ride with me? I need some exercise.”

She bites on her lip and looks up at me through her long dark lashes—my cock throbs at the sight.

I slide my arm around her waist. “I wasn’t talking about that kind of ride, or that kind of exercise, Angel,” I growl.

“I know,” she purrs, “but my ass is kinda delicate this morning. I’m not sure a ride in the saddle is going to help matters.”

“Well, that’s a damn shame, because I was looking forward to having a reasonable excuse to have you pressed up against me for an hour or two.”

I almost forgot that her ass would be tender after our adventure in the barn, but the memory of her tied up and spread wide open for me while I spanked her with my belt makes my cock weep. She presses her body closer to mine.

“Well, I don’t want to ride your horse, but I could definitely be persuaded to ride you.”

“Lucia,” I warn as I look around to make sure there is nobody who can see us before I palm her ass in my hand. It fits perfectly. She fits perfectly.

“Jax,” she breathes. “Please take me to your bed and fuck me.”

“Fuck,” I groan. She knows how much I love it when she asks me for what she wants. “Do you have any idea what you do to me?”

She glances down at the outline of my hard cock in my jeans. “I have a pretty good idea,” she giggles, then chews on her lip again.

“Then you’d better get your fine ass in the house. Now.” I slap it lightly and she bites down on her lip and groans my name. Fuck! Me! This woman is going to be my complete and utter ruin.

I lie back on the bed and watch her peel off her clothes for me. Mine were off within ten seconds of getting into the room. She has the most beautiful body I’ve ever seen, with soft, sensual curves and fullness in all of the places that make my cock throb in appreciation. I take my cock in my hand, stroking the shaft as I stare at her. Pre-cum beads on the top because she makes me so fucking hard and desperate to be inside her. When she’s completely naked she grins at me.

“Get your ass over here, Lucia,” I growl.

“You’re so bossy,” she giggles as she approaches the bed.

Reaching up, I grab her hand and pull her down on top of me. “You have no fucking idea, Angel.”

I fist my hand in her hair and crush her lips against mine, pushing my tongue into her mouth and tasting her sweetness. She moans softly and the sound vibrates through my bones. I pull back and she gasps for air.

“You said something about riding me?” I arch an eyebrow at her.

“Did I?” she purrs.

“Yes. So slide that hot pussy of yours onto my cock right now, because if you make me wait any longer for you, I’ll be forced to bend you over the end of this bed and fuck you into oblivion.”

“Jax,” she groans, “that sounds so freaking hot though.”

“Later, Angel. Make me come first and I’ll reward you for being my good girl.”

“Yes, Sir,” she purrs as she shifts her hips back, rubbing her wet pussy lips over me.

I grab hold of her hips, pulling her down onto me but she jerks away, grinding her pussy on me instead. “Patience, Jackson,” she teases me. “Maybe I should tie you up?”

“I’d like to see you try, Angel,” I flash my eyebrows at her.

“Hmm?” She flutters her eyelashes at me.

So she wants to play? “I can wait.” I loosen my grip on her hips. “You keep on rubbing that sweet pussy on me and we’ll see who caves first?”

“Okay.” She flashes her eyebrows at me. “You’re on, Decker.”

She goes on rolling her hips over me and my cock throbs. I grind my teeth. Who the fuck am I kidding? I am desperate to be inside that sweet pussy right now. I know exactly how silky, hot and wet she will feel when I bury myself in her. I slide one hand between her thighs and rub her clit. She arches her back and groans softly.

“You like that, Angel?”

“You know I do,” she hisses.

“Yeah and you know it’ll feel so much better when my cock’s in you too.”

“I know,” she groans and bears down, grinding her hips until I’m coated in her juices.

“So slide onto it, baby.” I rock my hips up, nudging at her opening and she places her hands on my stomach, her eyes locked on mine as they burn with fire.

“Jax,” she purrs and my balls draw up into my stomach. I love the sound of my name on her lips when she’s about to lose control.

I reach up and grab her hair, pulling her down with my free hand while I keep working her clit with the other. I press my lips against hers so I can tongue-fuck her mouth the way I want to be fucking her pussy. She’s going to win, isn’t she? I’m going to fucking die if I don’t get inside her soon.

Our bodies bead with perspiration as we grind against each other. I’d call it dry humping except that Lucia’s pussy is dripping wet and she has soaked my cock with her cum now too.

“I really need inside you, Angel.”

“Then do it, Jax,” she groans. “I want you to fill me with your huge cock. I need you to fuck me real hard, cowboy. My pussy is desperate for you.”

Dirty talk now, too. She’s going to fucking kill me. But if that’s how she wants to play. “I know, baby. I can feel your cum dripping all over my cock,” I growl as I rub soft circles over her clit. “I’m going to stretch your tight little cunt wide open when you sink your hips onto me. It will feel so good when I’m inside you, fucking you hard the way you like it. Won’t it?”

“Yes,” she whimpers.

“So just slide onto me and then I’ll take care of you,” I plead with her.

“Just fuck me. Please?” she moans.

I grab onto her hips just as she shifts them slightly and we move together; I drive into her as she positions herself at the perfect angle, neither of us caring any longer who held out the longest because it doesn’t matter. Later if she asks, I will insist it was a tie, but right now all that I care about is this sweet pussy gripping my cock for dear life.

She sits up, rolling her hips over mine as she sinks deeper onto me, then she looks down at me through her dark lashes, her eyes almost black with desire.

“Oh, God!” she breathes as her wet heat soaks me.

My cell starts ringing loudly in my ear and I glance at it on the nightstand. I usually keep it on silent but I’m expecting a call. I pick it up and glance at the screen and my heart sinks when I see Alejandro’s name on the screen. I press the button to end the call but I must be distracted by Lucia fucking me or my fingers are too slippery with cum, because I press the answer button instead and it goes straight to fucking speaker phone.

“Hey, amigo.”

Fuck!

I clamp my hand over Lucia’s mouth—she looks at me wide-eyed as she presses both of hers over mine and shakes her head. She’s going to come. Her father is on the phone and his little princess is about to come all over my cock—and my girl is not quiet.

I fumble with the phone and it almost slips out of my fingers. If I just end this call he’ll worry there’s something wrong. But I can’t speak to him while his daughter is riding me like she’s about to win the Kentucky Derby.

“I’ll call you right back. Just … busy…” I manage to grind out the words before I press the right button and cut him off.

I toss the phone onto the floor and a few seconds later it beeps to signal he sent me a text message instead.

I move my hand from her mouth and she moans my name so loudly it vibrates through the entire house. I thank Christ there is no-one home because our secret would be out. I forget all about the phone call from her father as her pussy squeezes around me and I am so close to the edge I feel it pulsing through my entire body.

But I need more.

I flip her over onto her back, pinning her wrists beside her head as she looks up at me with a huge post orgasmic smile on her face. “I love fucking you, Angel,” I growl as I nail her into the bed until I can’t hold off any longer and I fill her with my cum.

We lie in bed, Lucia draped over me and our bodies pressed together as we catch our breath.

“I need to call your father before he sends a drone down here to see what’s going on,” I say as I trail my fingertips over her back, making her shiver.

“Don’t go,” she says as she buries her head into my chest. “Call him from here. I’ll be quiet.”

I press a soft kiss on her forehead. “As much as I would prefer to stay in here with you for the rest of the day, I can’t speak to him while you’re dripping cum onto my leg, Angel. Lying to him is one thing, but doing it while your naked body is pressed up against me is another.”

“I suppose you’re right,” she says with a sigh. “I need to check on Matthias anyway.”

I tap her on the ass. “Come on. Let’s get up.”

She rolls off me and climbs off the bed and I can do nothing but stare at her as she picks up her clothes from the floor. She catches me looking and blushes.

“What?” she whispers.

“You are fucking beautiful.”

“Jax!” Her cheeks turn an even deeper shade of pink.

“It’s true,” I say as I jump off the bed and slide my arms around her waist. “You need to learn to accept a compliment, Angel.”

“Then thank you,” she whispers.

Iwait until I am far away from Lucia before I call Alejandro back.

“Hey, amigo, Sorry about before,” I say as soon as he answers.

“What the fuck were you doing? You sounded out of breath.”

“Nothing. Just sorting the horses,” I lie.

“Nothing or sorting the horses?”

“Does it matter?”

He starts to laugh. “You were fucking someone weren’t you?”

“No.”

“Is Shannon available again?” He laughs harder.

“Alejandro.”

“Okay. I hope you’re still keeping an eye on my daughter and grandson while you’re sorting the horses.

Fuck! If only he knew. “Of course. They are my number one priority.”

“How are they anyway? I tried Lucia’s cell a few times but it was off.”

Double fuck! Any second now, he’s going to realize what we were both doing.

“Can you tell her to charge the damn thing and call me back?”

“I will.” I breathe a sigh of relief. Of course he’s not going to suspect anything, because the idea of me fucking his daughter is unthinkable to him. I’m going straight to hell for what I’ve done to her these past few days. “Is everything okay?”

“Yeah. We got the guy who tried to run Lucia off the road.”

“You did?”

“Yeah. So you three can get your asses back here as soon as possible.”

“Who was it? Why did he go after her?” I frown as I think about the reason we’re here at the ranch. I’d almost forgotten there was a far more serious motive for me bringing Lucia here than simply fucking her senseless.

“Some kid. We’re holding him for now and I haven’t had a chance to question him yet,” he growls and I know he actually means that whoever it is will be tortured into speaking. Alejandro is skilled at making people talk. Not that the stupid fuck doesn’t deserve what’s coming to him. “You want me to wait until you get back?”

“Yeah,” I snap. I want to watch him die myself.

“I’ll send the plane. It can be there tonight.”

“Yeah.” I swallow hard. “Thanks.” Tonight? That means our time here is over. What if this doesn’t work back in LA? What if being here at the ranch allowed us a freedom that we just won’t have when we get back?

“Jax?” Alejandro snaps and I realize he’s been talking to me but I was too lost in my own thoughts.

“Yeah, sorry,” I stammer.

“Can you tell Lucia and get her to call me?”

“Of course,” I say, snapped from my daze.

“Great. I’ll see you both by morning then?”

“Sure.”

“You don’t sound too thrilled about getting back here?”

“I am,” I answer a little too quickly.

He’s quiet for a few seconds. “Once this is all sorted, maybe you could take a few weeks vacation and go back for another visit?” he offers.

“No. I’m good. I’m looking forward to getting back. I’ll see you soon.”

“Good. I’m looking forward to seeing you all.”

“Bye, amigo.” I hang up the phone.

I am looking forward to seeing him too, and Alana and the twins, but I am not relishing telling him about me and Lucia.

Iwalk into the yard to find Lucia, but before I can search for her, I see Matthias and my father sitting on the old wooden bench. Each of them holds a glass of lemonade while Blue lies at their feet.

I don’t mean to eavesdrop, but I hear my name and I freeze.

“Are you Jax’s daddy, Harvey?”

“I sure am.”

“Why doesn’t he call you Daddy? Or Papi?”

My father sighs and I wonder if he’s to going fob the kid off with some lame ass excuse. “Because I’m not a very good dad, Matthias,” he says.

“Why not?” Matthias looks up at him all wide-eyed and innocent. “You make me laugh.”

My father laughs at his response. “Ah, well. That’s a good thing, isn’t it?”

“Why aren’t you a good daddy then?”

My father draws in a deep breath before he speaks. “I didn’t used to be a very nice man.”

“I think you’re nice,” the kid says sweetly.

“Why, thank you,” my father ruffles the kid’s hair. “But back when Jax was little like you, I was mean and not much fun at all.”

“Why?”

I wonder when my father is going to tire of Matthias’ constant questions, but he goes on answering them. Even the difficult ones. Even though Matthias doesn’t always understand what he means, he tries to explain it in a way the kid will get most of it.

“I don’t have a daddy,” Matthias says and his little voice sounds so sad that it breaks my heart.

“I know. Some of us don’t,” my father agrees.

“I’d like a daddy though,” he beams as he swings his legs on the seat.

“You would, huh?”

“Yeah. One just like Jax.”

“Well, you couldn’t go wrong with a dad like my Jackson. He’s the best kind of man there is.” My father wraps his arm around the kid and they sit in silence as my heart feels like it’s going to turn into a puddle of mush. What the fuck is wrong with me?

“Hey,” Lucia sneaks up behind me and slides an arm around my waist. “Don’t those two look cute together?” She nods toward my father and her son.

“Yeah,” I say, the word sticking in my throat.

“I took them some lemonade but then Matthias told me I could go back inside. I felt like I was being dismissed by my own four-year-old,” she laughs softly. “Is everything okay, Jax?”

“What?” I blink at her.

“You seem distracted.”

“Oh yeah. I just spoke to your father. He found the guy.”

She sucks in a deep breath. “He did? Who is he?”

“I don’t know yet. He’s holding him until I get back. He’s sending the plane for us now, so we should pack up. We’ll need to leave in a few hours.”

“Oh.” She looks as disappointed as I feel.

I pull her back so we’re hidden by the house and wrap my arms around her waist. “I have loved every second of being here with you, but we have to go home, Angel.”

“I know.” She places her hands on my chest. “I was just starting to love it here. Your aunt Molly is so nice. Matthias loves the horses and he’s even conquered his fear of dogs. I’ll miss it.”

“That’s all you’re going to miss?” I arch an eyebrow at her.

“Well, I won’t have to miss you, will I?” she purrs and my cock stands to attention. I swear she has a direct line to him.

“No, Angel.”

“Nothing is going to change is it, Jax?”

“We have to tell him. I can’t lie to his face, Luce.”

She smiles at me. “I know, but not as soon as we land though?”

“No,” I shake my head. I’ll have much more pressing matters to deal with, such as torturing the cunt who tried to run my girl off the road.

“I’d better tell Matthias we’re leaving,” she says with a sigh.

“Tell him we’ll come back in the fall,” I say, brushing her hair back from her beautiful face.

Her eyes widen in delight. “Will we?”

“Yes.” I lean down and press a quick soft kiss on her lips and then I have to pull away because whenever I have my hands on this woman I want to carry her to my bed and get a part of my body inside her.
