Shadow Beneath The Stars (Demented Devils) MC Maya
The wind howled, cold and furious, as it whipped across my cheeks with a relentless speed. I flung my purse onto the seat of my old, beat-up 2005 Camry and shoved the keys into the ignition with such force that I feared they might snap off in the keyhole. Anger boiled inside me at the thought of Barbra getting the promotion instead of me. I had worked my ass off for months, sacrificing my free time and dedicating myself to the patients who came in every night just to prove to Marco that I was ready. And yet, here I was, watching someone else take the opportunity I deserved. Screw this...I cranked the engine, and it barely started, the battery in desperate need of replacement—something I couldn't afford. As usual, I could barely scrape together enough for gas for this piece of junk, and now I was facing the prospect of a new battery too.Interning never pays well, but what was I expecting? A job? I rolled my eyes as I clicked on the left turn signal, steering toward my rundown apartm

Panic engulfs me as I sprint across the rickety wooden bridge, my heart pounding against my ribcage like a war drum. The tires of my car screech to a halt, and every rational thought evaporates—there's a man sprawled near the water's edge, and he’s fighting for his life. My breath comes in jagged gasps as dread coils tightly in my stomach, twisting like a vise.As I close the distance, the sight plunges a knife into my gut—his torso is a canvas of despair, deep, seeping wounds marring his skin, tattoos swirling like tortured souls. A gaping hole in his abdomen spills crimson onto the grass, pooling around him; it paints a horrific picture that turns my stomach.“Sir?” I shout, my voice cracking, strained with fear and urgency, but deep down, I know he can’t hear me. My entire universe condenses to the rhythm of his labored breathing—slow, ragged, each gasp a desperate plea for survival that resonates deeper than my frantic heartbeat. I press my trembling fingers against his neck, pray

I slammed the accelerator, tearing out of the park where I had found the stranger. He lay twisted in the back seat, a wound gushing blood that seeped into my upholstery like a sin I couldn’t wash away.What am I doing?My thoughts screamed at me to ditch him, but my heart betrayed me, urging me to save him. The conflict roiled inside me, a tempest of fear and desperation. I glanced in the rearview mirror—nothing but empty road. The car that had once pursued us was just a fading memory, vanishing around the bend as I peeled out of that hellish place.I took a shuddering breath and veered onto the main road, gravel crunching under tires that protested against my frantic escape. My heart thundered in my chest, a manic drumbeat that matched the chaos in my mind. Adrenaline surged through me as my hands trembled on the steering wheel, coated in red—a visceral testament to my choices, to the blood that now stained my scrubs.My breath came in jagged gasps, each inhale a reminder of the

My eyes slowly adjusted to the harsh light flooding the room, and panic gripped me as I scanned my surroundings—nothing looked familiar. Then I saw her. The woman sitting across from me, her fingers nervously twirling around a white coffee mug, felt like an enigma wrapped in mystery. Her tousled blond hair framed a face that was both beautiful and haunting, but it was her eyes—those mesmerizing blue pools—that drew me in. They widened with surprise, a flicker of something deeper swirling within as she noticed I was conscious.But it was the dried blood caked beneath her fingernails that sent a chill down my spine. What the hell happened?“Where am I?” I croaked out, my voice rough and foreign, struggling against the fog clouding my memory. Each word felt like it tore through the haze, but the images remained elusive, dancing just out of reach.She set her cup down with a deliberate calmness and leaned toward me, her body taut and coiled like a spring ready to snap. The golden tan

I hurriedly slipped my scrub top over my head, the fabric clinging to my skin as I jammed my feet into my shoes, heart racing. Gripping my purse tightly, I stepped into the living room, only to find Armando sitting up on the couch, cradling his abdomen with his left hand, his head resting heavily against one of my fleece pillows.A wave of unease washed over me. How could I leave him here, vulnerable and alone, while I went to work? The gravity of the situation pressed down on my chest, making it hard to breathe. I couldn’t shake the discomfort gnawing at me. Three days ago, I had pulled him from the brink, cleaned him up, and now here he was, my savior turned burden. I let out a shaky breath, hovering over him, torn between compassion and fear. Suddenly, his eyes fluttered open, and those hazel swirls locked onto mine, sending a jolt through me—like electricity sparking in my core. He was breathtaking, the kind of handsome that made my stomach lurch like a schoolgirl’s first crush

I slammed the car door shut, heart racing, as panic clawed at my chest. I drove like a madman towards the ATM, desperation fueling my every movement. Armando’s money felt heavy in my hands, a lifeline wrapped in shadows. I deposited the cash and barely managed to pay the water bill—thank God I had just enough for electricity too. A wave of relief washed over me, but it was quickly overshadowed by the weight of Armando’s presence looming over my life now. My mind screamed in chaos. Would we even make it out alive? Just then, the panic hit me like a tidal wave. It wasn’t supposed to happen here—at the ATM, of all places. White dots erupted in front of my eyes as I gripped the steering wheel, knuckles white with fear. I fought to breathe, forcing myself to inhale deeply, letting the rush of air fill my lungs while the pressure twisted inside me. What was I going to do with him? The reality crashed down: the other gang knew about me, and now I was trapped in this mess, shackled to

My phone rang, slicing through the tension-filled silence while Maya was in the shower. I knew I shouldn’t answer it; every instinct screamed at me to ignore it. But the thought of leaving it unanswered gnawed at me like a festering wound. I had charged it earlier when Maya was away, a small flicker of hope in an otherwise darkening world.Jake’s name flashed on the screen, and a wave of dread washed over me. My stomach churned with anxiety, but this was my crew, my responsibility. I couldn’t let Rico’s shadow cast a pall over us.I slid my finger across the screen, and Jake’s frantic voice crackled through the line. “Armando? Is that you?” His breath came in quick gasps, sounding almost muffled as if he were hiding in a quiet room, wrestling with his own fears.“It’s me,” I replied, steeling myself for whatever grim news was about to surface.He exhaled sharply, a mix of relief and panic. “Thank god you’re alive. Where are you? We can come get you.” Jake had always been the mor

He pressed his lips against mine, a soft yet electrifying connection that ignited something deep within me. The kiss was an unspoken declaration, a spark that blazed to life before I even had a chance to comprehend it. Armando was unlike anyone I'd ever encountered; there was a wildness to him that both thrilled and terrified me. When he finally revealed that he led a gang trafficking drugs, it felt like the ground had shifted beneath my feet. Shock coursed through me, leaving me breathless. What was I supposed to think? I shot a glare at the clock, its red digits glaring back at me in the stillness of the night. Past midnight. Time felt suspended as I turned to face the door, where Armando lay sprawled on the couch, his presence a heavy blanket over my thoughts. The taste of his kiss lingered on my lips, a haunting reminder of our encounter. A slight smile crept onto my face, unwelcome yet insistent, as memories whirled in my mind. His hands had gripped my cheeks with such urgenc

I had been drowning in a storm of secrets from Armando for days, a suffocating weight that pressed down on my chest. The moment I threw up that morning—a violent expulsion that felt like the world crashing down around me—I knew: I was pregnant. Everything about me was shifting; an insatiable hunger clawed at my insides, and my clothes began to tighten like a noose, suffocating any sense of normalcy. At first, I fed myself lies, blaming it all on gluttony and neglecting the gym—self-delusion wrapped in denial. But that day with Brenda shattered my facade. I found myself standing in Bonners Market in Phoenix, heart racing as I clutched a pregnancy test like it was a ticking bomb. Brenda’s laughter echoed cruelly in my ears, her judgment sharp enough to cut through my fragile resolve. But I had to know the truth; ignorance was a poison I could no longer swallow.Two agonizing weeks had passed, my period a ghost taunting me from the shadows. It hung in the air, a grim reminder of my unrav

Demetri sat across from me, fingers entwined tightly as I leaned back, tension crackling in the air. “You wanted to talk? Then speak up,” I bit out, my jaw clenched, trying to mask the storm brewing inside me.“I know where to find Reaper,” he said, his voice steady but laced with a hint of hesitation. “I’ve heard he likes to take the underground sewers to avoid detection.” He turned to face me, but his eyes darted away before they could lock onto mine. I knew why. The guilt and discomfort hung thick between us like smoke; he was tangled up with Maya, my girl—the one I had let myself fall for, body and soul. A knot of rage twisted in my gut at the thought of him taking what was mine, using her like some disposable toy.“I honestly don’t care where to find Reaper anymore,” I shot back, my voice low and dangerous as I pushed myself up from the table. “I’m done with this whole search for him.” I moved toward the coat rack, the weight of my jacket feeling like a shroud as I fought against

As I stood there by the kitchen sink, a mug of steaming coffee trembling in my hands, the truth crashed over me like a tidal wave: Armando was a player. I should have anticipated it the moment his childhood girlfriend sauntered in, flaunting her skimpy outfit while I was right there beside him. A lump lodged in my throat, and the storm of anxiety mixed with fury surged within me, only intensifying when Armando’s eyes finally locked onto mine.The raw anger that flickered in his gaze sent a jolt through me; I could feel his rage boiling beneath the surface. The happiness Demetri had ignited in me was like a fire consuming him from the inside out.“I can’t believe this,” he spat, his voice laced with pain and disbelief. “How long?” “Few weeks,” I mumbled, lifting the mug to my lips, the scalding liquid searing my throat as it went down. The muffled voices of my mother and father fluttered in from the dining room, their casual banter a cruel contrast to the storm raging inside me. I s
Shadow Beneath The Stars (Demented Devils) MC Armando
I loathed the man behind me—the coward who abandoned Maya and her mother, choosing to play the part of a doting father to Reaper and that girl who looked so much like her. He was a fraud, a spineless traitor, and I was determined to expose him for what he truly was.Maya had no idea her father was still alive, lurking in the shadows like the coward he was. It broke my heart to think about shattering her world with the truth, but she needed to open her eyes and see him for who he really was. I knew she would despise me for it, but I’d rather her spit venom at me than remain blissfully ignorant while that bastard hid behind a facade.“Take a left here!” the old man yelled, his voice barely cutting through the roar of the engine that vibrated beneath us.I obeyed, yanking the handlebars to the left with a reckless thrill, the bike nearly tipping over as I fought for balance. Every inch of me was on fire, ignited by the adrenaline and fueled by the rage simmering just below the surface. Th

I knew it was a colossal mistake to bring Maya’s father here. Armando just had to assert his dominance, dragging the old man into this mess without a second thought for Maya or her mother. As always, he operated by his own rules, a tyrant within his crew, and I was merely a pawn in his game. But when it came to Maya, I couldn’t stand by and let things spiral out of control. I prepared myself for chaos the moment we arrived.I watched as Armando shoved Maya’s father onto his bike, settling in beside him with a practiced ease. The old man seemed oddly at home on the machine, as if he’d spent a lifetime riding—like he had never known a day without it. I could be imagining things, but there was a calm confidence about him that gnawed at my gut. “I’ll follow you,” I shouted over the roar of the engine as Armando revved it and tore out of the alley. As I climbed onto my own bike, I exchanged a knowing glance with Jake. His eyebrows were raised, mischief playing at the corners of his mouth.

I zip up my bag and set it next to the door, the tension thickening in my chest as I move toward the kitchen. I settle into a bar stool, the cold steel biting against my skin, and wait for Demetri. The hallway thrums with distant sounds, a symphony of life that feels worlds away from me.Adriana glides into view, draped in a light pink robe that sways gently around her form. Her hair is pulled back into a loose ponytail, strands cascading softly around her shoulders. My heart races, not from desire, but from the dread pooling in my gut.She greets me with a smile that doesn’t quite reach her eyes, leaning in to plant a kiss on my lips—soft, familiar. But it feels hollow, a gesture stripped of warmth. “Good morning,” she whispers, her breath brushing against my skin as she wraps her arms around my neck, the intimacy of the moment stinging. As her hand travels down my abdomen, nudging at my groin, my body betrays me, stirring in response despite my mind's frantic warnings. I can feel i

When I awoke, the early morning light sliced through the window like a whisper, stirring a haze of dreams from my mind. The warmth behind me pulled me deeper into reality, and it took a moment for the memory to crystallize—I wasn’t alone. Demetri was here, nestled against me in my bed. A smile danced on my lips as I wrapped my arms around myself, pulling the covers tight against my skin, shielding the heat of my body from the cool air. I turned slightly and felt him there, all of him pressed against my back, the undeniable evidence of his desire pushing insistently against me like a force of nature. My heart raced as I allowed myself to sink closer into his warmth, the intoxicating heat between us igniting every nerve ending. But this blissful cocoon was destined to break. The faint sound of footsteps creaked softly on the carpet outside my door, a harbinger of reality intruding upon our sanctuary. My mother was home from wherever her night had led her, and my chest tightened at

Just the sight of Armando ignited a fierce anger within me, stirring a reckless impulse to lash out. In a fit of defiance, I texted Demetri. My fingers flew across the screen, a careless flirtation fueled by my memories of that electric kiss we shared one fateful night. I could still feel how his body had entwined with mine, how the moment had stretched longer than necessary until my mother’s abrupt interruption shattered our world.I sent off the message and slipped my phone into my purse, my heart racing as the last police officer exited the hospital. A cute cop named Roland handed me his card, his blue eyes glimmering with unspoken promise. “We’ll have a patrol car parked outside in case any of the Reapers Crew decides to return,” he said, his tone reassuring.“Thank you. That makes me feel a bit safer,” I replied, forcing a smile while my insides twisted. As Roland turned back toward his cruiser, I couldn’t shake the conflicting emotions. I huffed and stepped onto the sidewalk, th

She didn’t look at me the same way anymore, and I knew it was all my fault. The torment I put her through still clawed at my insides, but that wasn’t even the worst of it—Adriana hung over me like a specter, a secret she would never know. The guilt twisted like a knife in my gut, but right now, I had bigger fish to fry: finding Reaper.I followed Demetri outside, the cold air biting at my skin, when I saw the first patrol car creeping into the deserted parking lot. A chill ran down my spine. This was only the beginning; I could feel the storm brewing. The way the car rolled in made it clear they were suspicious. An investigation was inevitable, and I knew all eyes would land on us—sitting ducks in this godforsaken hospital parking lot, exposed and likely caught on camera.Anger simmered beneath my skin, igniting something primal as I kicked the stand out from under my bike. The engine roared to life, a feral growl that drowned out my fears. I shot after Demetri as he peeled out of the
