Devil Takes His Innocent Page 14

  “You love me?”

  “Yes, angel, I believe I do. And I’m sorry I made you ever doubt your importance to me. Now don’t go expecting me to express my feelings all the time. It’s not who I am. Just remember this moment and how I feel about you the next time I piss you off. Deal?”

  “Deal,” she said, smiling for the first time since coming around.

  “You do realize you just made a deal with the Devil himself?”

  “I think I can live with that.”

  “You have little choice, mate. I have no intentions of allowing you out of my sight again.”

  “Sorry to interrupt this loving moment, you two, but, Devil, I think we should get these girls home,” Viper suggested, now no longer glowing. “This environment is doing nothing for Nikki’s state of shock.”

  “Understood,” Devil replied, lifting Gabby as he stood. “What’s the plan with Saul and his men?”

  “Chaos and I’ll deal with them. You two look after the women,” Judge stated.

  “We’ll see you both back at the hotel,” Devil said to his brothers before giving the yawning Gabby a gentle squeeze. “Come on, let’s go home. You need to rest.”

  “I’m fine,” Gabby replied.

  “Angel, you may be a nurse, but for the next few days you’re a patient. Even if it’s just at home with me.”

  “Mmmm, playing doctor and nurse, I like the sound of that,” she said with a glint in her eye.

  “Behave yourself, woman, otherwise this doctor is going to have to take drastic action. Your backside might require a special dose of my medicine.” He whispered the warning in her ear.

  “Being bad is beginning to sound a whole lot more inviting,” came the cheeky reply from Gabby as she snuggled further into his body.

  As both Devil and Viper moved toward the door, carrying the women, they were stopped by Chaos. “With both of your permissions, when I return to the hotel I will come up and check over both the women?”

  “Thank you, my friend,” Viper responded immediately. Looking over both Nikki and Gabby, he nodded in agreement with whatever Chaos was seeing.

  Devil wasn’t so compliant. His blood should have healed any of Gabby’s injuries. Displeasure and worry sat in his heart. “What are you two seeing?” Devil asked, knowing both Chaos and Viper had the ability to gain a sense of others’ moods and well-being through sight.

  “Your tattoos are so pretty,” came the drowsy comment from Nikki.

  “Thank you, sweetheart. I like them,” Viper responded, smiling down at Nikki.

  “What’s she talking about, tattoos? I don’t see any on him.”

  The large fae moved closer to Devil and Gabby. He bowed his head before saying, “It’s a pleasure to meet the woman who has had this guy chasing his tail. I only hope I can find my place in your friend’s life as Devil has in yours. Now please don’t fret over what Chaos and I have indicated. We just believe that it would be a good idea for Chaos to check over your babies. His magical blood makes him the doctor amongst us.”

  “What’s he talking about, Devil? A place in Nikki’s life? And what babies?”

  “Nikki is Viper’s mate. Only a mate of a fae can see their skin markings,” Devil said, brushing some hair away from Gabby’s face, smiling down at her. “And as for the babies, I think it’s his way of saying you’re pregnant.”

  “Pregnant? How?”

  “As a nurse, I would hope you would know the answer to that. But if you require me to explain it, how about a little show-and-tell a bit later, once you’ve had your checkup?”

  “Not how it happened, but I will hold you to that promise,” Gabby replied. “How do they know I’m carrying babies, when I had no inkling that I was even pregnant?”

  “As a fae and warlock, both Viper and Chaos’ blood contains magic. While their magic differs, the foundations are the same. All life emits energy. They are able to see every living thing’s life force, including our unborn babies.”

  “Babies?” Gabby muttered to herself before looking at him. “Are you all right with that?”

  “While I would generally loathe the idea of sharing you, angel, these babies are a part of you. I will love them as I do you.”

  “Say it again.”

  “I love you, Gabby.”

  With a sigh she laid her head on his shoulder and said, “Take me home, Devil.”

  Chapter Eighteen

  Gabby felt like she was going to implode. Her whole body was feverish, her clothes rubbed against her sensitive skin, and her heart felt like it was trying to escape her chest, hammering on her ribs. She wasn’t ill, though she knew the cause. He sat beside the bed, his gaze piercing her soul. As he took in her body, he left a trail of goose bumps in his wake. She needed him, desperately, but still he remained in his chair.

  “Please, Devil, do something,” she begged.

  “Not until Chaos has checked you over,” the infuriating man replied.

  Not liking his response, Gabby’s fingers took it upon themselves to wander. They hovered over her pebbled nipples, still covered by one of Devil’s t-shirts. The sensation had her arching off the bed. The usually soft material appeared rough, teasing her nipples, exciting them further. The whole time her gaze never left Devil’s.

  “Pinch them.” She did, gasping at the new sensation. “Now twist them, pulling them at the same time.”

  Following his order, Gabby’s backside shot off the bed. With each pull, a tingling ran through her whole body, its final destination her pussy. Its current level of sensitivity was like nothing she had felt before. Her legs fell apart, opening under the blanket. Her pussy was inviting its partner to join with it. Juices ran between her cheeks as her clit poked from between its protective lips.

  Still she continued to pull, twist, and squeeze her hypersensitive nipples, sending her higher and higher. Moans escaped her as her orgasm drew closer. Small spots of light began flickering behind her now closed eyelids, indicating her completion was near. The only thing that would have made this experience better was if Devil would touch her.

  Touch her he did, but his words had her orgasm retreating slightly, hanging in limbo. Pulling her hands from her nipples, he said, “Chaos is here. That orgasm is mine and mine alone. You will not come until he has checked you over thoroughly and given us the okay to play. Do I make myself clear?”

  “Please, can’t you just ask him to come back in a while?”

  “No, angel. Yours and the babies’ health must come above pleasure. Now be a good girl and behave yourself and I’ll reward you later.” Before Gabby could respond, a knock sounded at the door. “Come in, Chaos. We’re ready for you.”

  Gabby forced her body to return to the mattress and closed her legs. In her effort to try to maintain some level of modesty, her orgasm decided to remind her how close it was. As she snapped her legs together jolts of electricity ran through her, tickling every nerve ending. Of course Devil was no help. As if sensing how close she was, he brought her hands up to his mouth and nipped each fingertip, adding to her euphoric pain. The rat then went back to conversing with Chaos, as if her discomfort meant little to him. Thankfully, Chaos showed some mercy.

  “Okay, Gabby, this won’t take long,” he said, sending her a sympathetic smile. “I just want to have a proper look at the babies’ life force, the energy they are emitting. I’m going to lower this blanket slightly, if you could lift the t-shirt, exposing only your stomach.”

  “What are you looking for?” Gabby asked, lifting the material off of her stomach.

  “Any weakness in their life forces. From what I understand, your body took a nasty beating. I’m just making sure the babies didn’t suffer any damage.”

  “Wouldn’t my blood have healed them as well?” Devil asked.

  “Their own vampire DNA will protect them once they are born, but right now they are barely the size of peanuts, relying solely on Gabby for everything they need. I’m trying to establish whether you gave Gabby enough blood to cover al
l three of their injuries.”

  This had Gabby worried. Her impending orgasm was forgotten for the moment. She held her breath, desperate to discover her babies were okay, wearing no trauma from her earlier ordeal. Minutes seemed like hours as Chaos’ gaze ran over her stomach slowly, taking in every inch below her naval.

  Finally he spoke again. “You have two healthy and strong babies residing within you, Gabby. Congratulations to you both,” Chaos said, bowing slightly before leaving without another word.

  “They’re okay?” she asked, still unsure she had heard the giant man correctly.

  Devil smiled. “Yes, angel, they are perfectly healthy.” Suddenly his smile disappeared. “Now, I do believe we have some unfinished business.”

  Those simple words had her pussy pulsing, her mate and orgasm suddenly the only two things in her mind. She tossed the blankets off fully and scrambled to remove the t-shirt. Devil’s eyes darkened. The mere sight of him had her pussy gushing, demanding satisfaction. Still he stared.

  Suddenly his body leaned over hers. His face was so close that his breath tickled her cheeks, whispering across her lips. They parted, offering themselves as a willing sacrifice to his pleasure, but it would seem he had other ideas.

  “You were a very good girl when Chaos was here, but you cannot avoid your punishment for trying to tempt me before we got the all clear.”

  With that said, Devil began rearranging the pillows. She found herself being carefully positioned, facedown so her stomach lay over the pillows, her legs apart. Her backside was in the air, while her head rested on the mattress. Her pussy wept, knowing exactly what was about to come. Her heart jumped with joy.

  The first smack stung, causing her to cry out, as did the next few. By the fifth, heat radiated through her backside to her pussy. As her spanking continued, her cries went from those of pain to those of ecstasy. The sting was forgotten as her orgasm blossomed. His hand found the back of her thighs. She pushed her backside out further, begging for more. She was so close. Finally her completion came when his hand slapped her pussy, sending her orgasm screaming throughout her whole body. Every nerve ending sang in rapture. As she came to, her body still shook with aftershocks.

  “That’s it, come back to me,” she heard Devil cooing over her. Just the sound of his voice had her ready for more. “Are you ready for me?”

  “Mmmm,” she moaned.

  “Not good enough. I guess I’ll have to check for myself,” he said as he eased her over onto her back. Something traveled from her anus to her pussy. What she thought was a finger turned out to be something else altogether. “Damn, woman, you taste good enough to eat. And we will revisit that idea, later. Right now, my cock needs to be inside you.”

  Stalking up her body on his hands and knees, Devil positioned himself over her. His gaze fell into hers, and she was lost in the promise they held. She felt his cock at her entrance, prodding, but not entering. He seemed to be waiting for something. What, she had no idea, but she lacked the patience he obviously had. Lifting her backside off the bed, she tried to engulf him.

  “Oh, angel, you please me,” he said before he lowered his mouth to hers.

  So caught up in the erotic kiss, her backside lowered back down on the bed of its own accord. As soon as that happened, Devil thrust into her. Throwing her head back, her lips came away from his. He continued to pound into her, grunting against her shoulder on each entrance. Her body was carried higher toward sweet oblivion. She reached for it, pushed along by his carnal taking.

  “You better be close, mate. All your teasing has me ready to blow.”

  “Oh yes, yes,” she cried.

  A slight pinch at her neck threw her from the pleasure zone momentarily. As soon as Devil began drinking from her, pulling on that sweet spot that was her mating mark, she was lost again to the sensation. Soon enough she found herself falling over the edge to euphoria. Fireworks exploded behind her eyes as her whole being floated.

  Something wet touched her swollen pussy and tender backside. It drew her from her haze. Devil stood over her, gloriously naked, tenderly cleaning her of their joint fluids. Tossing the face cloth onto the floor, he gently lifted her, positioning her onto the pillows. Her man of action was once again showing her how he felt about her. No words had the power to lighten her heart as his caring touch did. She had come to realize that the words she had craved could be more easily falsified than actions. And this man’s actions told her he loved her.

  “I love you, Devil.”

  “I know, angel. Now go to sleep. You need to keep your strength up for our babies.”

  “Will you hold me?”

  “Of course. I just need to rid us of this cloth,” he said, holding up the face cloth once again. “And get you a drink of water.”

  “Hurry, please. I don’t want to fall asleep without your arms around me.”

  “Demanding, aren’t we?”

  “I learned from the best.”

  “Watch it, mate, otherwise my hand might be revisiting that ass of yours.”

  Loving the idea, but knowing her tender backside wouldn’t be able to handle it, she suggested, “Maybe tomorrow.”

  “I’ll keep you to that,” Devil promised before exiting through the door to the bathroom.

  Gabby was pleasantly surprised at how alert she was feeling after everything that had happened over the last few hours. She had been kidnapped at gunpoint and nearly killed by a concrete wall. Yet here she was safe, pregnant, and happy with the man she loved. Her only worry was for her best friend. She hadn’t seen Nikki since she had been carried from the lift by Viper. Gabby doubted he would hurt Nikki; neither Devil nor Judge would have entrusted her into his care if that were the case.

  “What’s put that frown upon that beautiful face?” Devil asked, walking back toward the bed.

  “I was just thinking about Nikki, wondering how she was.”

  “She’s going to be fine. Chaos confirmed that she had gone into shock, but Viper won’t allow anything to happen to her.”

  “So he truly is her mate, then?”

  “Yes.”

  “And he’s the one known also as Conquest, correct?”

  “Yes,” Devil replied.

  “Will Nikki be one of his conquests?”

  “His greatest and last. Though I suspect Nikki won’t fall as easily as his past conquests. Even Rome fell a lot easier than I think Nikki will.”

  “She’s been hurt before, Devil. Badly. I won’t have her being hurt again.”

  “I know, angel. We must trust in the fates and Viper and Nikki’s mating bond to guide them, as it did us,” Devil said, smiling as he crawled back into bed. “And have no fear, Viper is a slightly better listener than I. He won’t need to be told as often to see what an amazing woman he has in front of him, before recognizing what he has. And if all else fails, I have a makeshift boxing area set up downstairs. I will make him listen, if need be.”

  “It’s her mistrust in men that will cause the hiccup in their relationship.”

  Pulling Gabby back into the curve of his body, with his hand laying gently on her stomach, Devil said, “I have no doubt they will have an interesting story to tell their children and grandchildren, just as we have one to tell ours. Now let us sleep together as we plan on continuing throughout our future, in each other’s arms. And let our friends’ story unfold the way it’s meant to.”
