Bridgette was just finishing up the last of her work for the day when she got an alert on her burner phone. She was putting away the rest of her files when Kane walked into her office at the house in town. She tried not to think about the attraction she was feeling towards Kane. Instead she thought about what she still had left to do and nearly everything else she could focus on rather than the hulking man that seemed to occupy more space in her brain by the second.
The sun was beginning to set and dinner would be ready in 30 minutes. She knew that they would be finishing their conversation after she got Sammy to sleep. She didn’t know if it was a good idea for them to even consider crossing any lines until all of this was settled. Just the thought of talking about it had her nervously checking the time. As she was putting the last of her files away Kane’s phone began to ring. Hmmm.... it would seem things are finally going to pick up a little bit as far as Margo and Kane are concerned.
A/N: Its going to start getting real steamy between these two from this chapter on! ;)Later that night the two were sitting in the dining room. She knew that they were about to have a conversation that she didn’t feel prepared for. She sighed and eyed him warily for a moment. She didn’t know what to say or how to bring up the subject. She nervously fiddled with her glass of water as she tried to think of something.“Well,” Kane began with a nervous chuckle. “Now that we’re going to talk about what’s happened.... I don’t know where or how to begin.”“Thank god I’m not the only one.” She whispered. “Look, I don’t want things to be awkward just because we kissed…”
A/N: The rest of the scene picks up here. Let me know what you think. As Kane's lips latched back onto hers, silencing her moans, he vowed that he would take all of her in every way he possibly could. His cock was throbbing as his mind clouded over. In his head were only the feel of her lips against his and thoughts about sinking into her over and over again. The taste of her lips alone left him wanting more and more. With that thought in mind he grabbed her by her thighs and held her as she wrapped her legs around his waist. Margo’s eyes went wide when she felt Kane’s cock through their clothes. He opened his eyes when he felt her stiffen up. He took in the slightly afraid look on her face. He rested his forehead against hers and walked them towards the living room where he sat down with her in his lap on the sofa.
Bernard paced up and down in his home office as he looked at the text message on his burner phone. A growl of frustration escaped his lips as he glared at the offending message. He was tired of the constant excuses and hearing that another promising lead had become a deadend. Day after day, week after week, year after year it was the same thing. The one time he had been close to finding her and she up and disappeared. It wasn’t long and he was yelling and cursing as he stormed out of his office. One of his maids was unlucky enough to pass him in the hallway. Bernard simply grabbed her and threw her over the railing. The maid screamed in terror as she fell from the third floor and landed with a sickening thud on the white italian marble floor.Members of his staff stood there gaping in horror as the maid laid almost lifeless on the ground. Blood seeped from where her head struc
Bridgette hung up the phone and turned wide eyes towards Kane who was leaning against the counter in the kitchen staring at her with worried eyes. He could tell by the concerned tone of her voice that she was worried about the phone call she had gotten.“What happened?” Kane asked, looking at her with concern.“Call Dex. Something has happened and Athena quit. I don’t know what happened but she is bringing a boy with her … Kane, she’s in danger….” She whispered, looking up at him in fear.“Did she say what happened?” Kane asked, coming to stand next to her.“Just that we need to meet. She said something horrible happened and that she was quitting and going to be bringing a l
“We’re already starting the process of creating a paper trail and new identities for the both of you. Your paperwork will be ready in a few hours as well. We don’t want you to worry about anything else right now except for the part that you’re going to play in convincing them that he will be out of town for a while.” Dex said, smiling gently at them. “How do I know that all of this will work? That we will be able to get away?” She asked, playing with her fingers. “Because I help people get new identities all the time. People, who like you, have no choice but to run. “ Dex said with a reassuring smile. “Athena?” The young boy asked, looking up at her in confusion. “Who are these people?” “The woman over there is a friend of mine. Remember how m
“Do you want us to go inside with you?” Kane asked, worried that she might fly off the handle.“No. Whatever happened isn’t good. We can’t draw attention to Marco being with us either. Just stay here with him.” She said, getting out of the car and slamming the door shut.“She looks mad....” Marco whispered as he unbuckled and leaned forward watching her march into the school with a scowl on her face.“Yeah… It probably wasn’t a good idea to let her go in alone….” Kane mumbled.When Bridgette walked inside the office she was surprised to find Ms. Willson, Mrs. Anderson, Mr. Jefferson, Sammy’s new teacher, and a very angry looking parent all waiting f
Bridgette didn’t stay around to watch the rest. She stormed out of Ms. Willson’s office, slamming the door behind her. As soon as her eyes landed on the woman all thought left her mind. She pounced on her raining down punches on the screaming woman’s face. She was seeing red as she screamed at her. Her rage blinding her to everything else around her.“How dare you fucking hit her!” She screamed between punches. “How dare you hold her in place and let someone hit her!”The police were so surprised it took them a moment to realize what was happening. A very angry parent had seen a teacher put their hands on their child and even encouraged someone to hit her. They could understand her anger towards the woman but they still needed to break up the fight.“
“I’m pressing charges. You know as well as I do she instigated the whole thing. Those other girls would have never taken it further than pushing and shoving. I don’t know what she said and I don’t care. I don’t know how her mother is raising her but it’s definitely not the right way. Sammy has always been taught not to harm others but at the same time I don’t want her to be seen as weak and let others walk all over her either.”“Okay. You’re free to go.” He said, handing her a card. “If you have any questions this is my number.”“Thanks.” Bridgette said, taking his card and going back to the car.When they pulled up to the house Bridgette panicked for a moment before Kane’s hand on her arm
Thank you for reading. I know a lot happened and there will be more to come. I promise that plot points and questions will be answered over time. Just hang in there with me as I am working on the next book in the series. The next book will be up soon with more romance, mystery, and intriegue. Bernard will be back with his villianous ways and Margo will be making some appearances here and there as the story follows new characters but helps you understand Bernard and the motives behind what is taking place. This book will be more villian centered than the first one. So look for book 2 of The Devil's Knight's MC Series: The Devil's Prey.
After a few more rounds they fell asleep wrapped up in each other’s arms. Kane rolled over in his sleep reaching for Bridgette but frowned when he found her side cold and empty. He sat up and rubbed the sleep from his eyes. He looked around the room and sighed at the quiet. Kane climbed out of the bed and slipped on his underwear. He padded down the stairs in search of Bridgette.Kane went to the kitchen and noticed that the coffee maker was off. He frowned and went to the office thinking that she could be there or in the bunker. When he saw that the desk was in place he began to worry. On top of the desk was a note written in Bridgette’s messy handwriting. Tears stained some of the paper causing the ink to run and smudge a little.Kane,
“I have for a long time.” Kane whispered, crossing over to her.Bridgette stood there in shock staring up at him. A deep blush spread across her face as she swallowed the nervous lump in her throat. She blinked a few times before realizing that he stood directly in front of her. She sighed as his hands threaded into her hair, holding her still as he pressed his lips to her’s.Bridgette moaned into the kiss as she wound her arms around his neck. She stood on the tips of her toes and pressed into him as he nipped and sucked her bottom lip. Her heart pounded into her chest as she lost her senses to him. He was constantly invading her mind and even though there were more important matters to deal with her mind thought only of him.In her foggy haze she barely registered him picking he
Kane returned two hours later with an annoyed Mary in tow. Her jaw was hanging open as she took in the large house on the familiar property. She turned wide accusing eyes on him a moment later as her mouth began to turn down into a frown.“Are you fucking kidding me?” She growled angrily. “This is where you’ve been?”“Just shut it and come inside. We have a lot to do and not much time to do it.” He said, climbing out of his truck.“Don’t order me around, you ass!” She huffed as she followed him to the front door.To her surprise he entered the house without knocking. She scurried in behind him with wide eyes. She couldn’t believe how massive the house was or how warm and

“Hey,” Dex said, coming to stand next to him.“Hey. Did you guys get everything sorted out?” Kane asked.“She’s dragging her feet and I can’t say that I blame her. She doesn’t trust anyone except Bridgette.” Dex sighed, running a hand through his hair. “I don’t know what to do…. We can’t expect Jess and Machine to take her in. They have the kids so their hands are full.”“I might have an idea….” Bridgette whispered, stepping outside to join them.“What are you thinking?” Dex asked, raising a brow.“Can you call your sister?” She asked, turning her eyes towards Kane. 
“Jess, I need you and Machine to take the kids and keep them safe.” Bridgette sighed.“I thought that they were safe here.” Machine frowned.“They were.” Kane said, still mad that she had put herself in danger again.“What happened?” Jess asked.“That bastard managed to get to an informant and his family. Long story short, their dead and they were under federal guard.” Bridgette sighed.“But what does that have to do with the kids?” Machine asked.“It means that if he can get to them while they’re under federal protection then he can get to me and it won't
“Bridgette, you need to stop and think about this!” Kane yelled, following her through the house.“There’s nothing to think about.” She said with a stoney face as she made her way down to the bunker.“Why won’t you stop and listen to me?” He argued.“Because you’re just going to try and talk me out of this and there’s nothing you can say to change my mind.” She said, starting up the computers.“Goddammit! I don’t want to lose you! I can’t go through that again!” He yelled.“You’re not going to lose me, but you are going to have to trust me!” She said, turning to face him teary eyes. &
Bridgette sighed and leaned against the railing as she thought about how crowded her place had suddenly become. The cold air blew across her skin reminding her that she hadn’t worn a jacket or shoes. She closed her eyes, savoring the quiet as the wind whipped her hair around. She didn’t mind the chill or the numbness in her appendages. Her mind was elsewhere as she stared out at the early morning sky.“Bridgette….” Kane sighed, opening the door with a fresh cup of steaming coffee in his hands. “What are you doing out here in the cold?”Bridgette didn’t turn to look at him as he watched her worriedly. She took a deep breath of air and sighed, watching the warm air float out on the early morning breeze. She tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and nibbled on her bottom lip.
