“Aunty Bella!” Maddie comes racing toward me almost knocking me down as I enter the front room where all of the women are sitting. I reach down picking her up as she wraps her arms around me in a warm hug. I love this girl, the genuine love she has for people astounds me. “Hey little lady, how are you?”
“I’m good. You look tired. And Roger said he was going to throw out Lennon’s bear because he dropped it, and it was dirty. He can’t, I told him he can’t.”
I place a kiss on her cheek and smile as I put her back down on the ground. “I thought I heard you telling someone off. Where is the bear now?”
She grabs my hand and drags me into the kitchen, pointing at the bear on the counter before she turns to Roger and scowls at him. Poor guy. Six-foot one trained killer and he crumbles when Maddie yells at him. The kid has everyone wrapped around her little finger.
“Tell you what, why don’t we stick the bear in the machine on a delicate wash and see if we can get him clean?”
“Thank you, Aunty Bella, you’re the best.”
Giving Roger a quick smile, I grab the bear and then head into the laundry room with Maddie watching my every move. “Aunty Bella, where’s Uncle Killian?”
“He’s at work with your Dad and Uncles.” I look down at her, and see her brows knitted together, “what’s up little lady?”
“Mommy and Daddy said Dan and Roger have to stay at school with me. I heard Daddy say to Mommy because she won’t let me stay home that Uncle Killian is making them stay with me.”
I crouch down to her level, “and you don’t want them there?”
She gives a quick look behind her, then leans forward gives a little shake of her head, and quietly tells me, “no. The other kids are mean to me. They said I’m stupid and a baby coz I have to have them with me. It makes me sad.” Small tears fall down her face and she quickly tries to wipe them away. Grabbing her hands, I pull her closer to me. “Listen, those kids are being mean, because they are jealous. You have two giant guys who will do anything for you. And they will always be around to protect you. I know it’s not fun sweetheart, but I know that your Daddy and Killian wouldn’t make them stay with you if it wasn’t important. I know it’s hard, but I need you to ignore those mean kids at school. Can you do that for me?”
She lets out a big sigh, then looks at me and nods. “I’ll try.” I wrap my arms around her, pulling her in for a hug, when a shadow catches my eye. “Aunt Bella is right about it being important sweetheart.” Maddie jumps and pulls away from me a little, turning to see Killian standing in the doorway. “How about I get Roger and Dan to not stay so close, so other kids don’t always see them?”
Walking over to him he kneels and she places a kiss on his cheek, “It’s ok Uncle Killian, I understand. I’m gonna find Mommy and Daddy.”
“Er, Mad’s maybe go see Uncle Finn in the front room. Your Ma and Da are busy.” Killian shouts after her as she takes off through the kitchen. Turning back to me I raise an eyebrow in question. He chuckles stepping toward me and forcing me against the washing machine. My fingers make quick work of the buttons on his jeans as he sucks and bites on my neck. I give him a gentle push then spin him so he’s now resting on the washing machine. Dropping to my knees, I pull his jeans down his thighs the veins pulsing on his hard cock, pre-cum dripping from the end, “Mo Chroí… this wasn’t quite what I had in mind.” I look up at him from underneath my lashes and smirk, he hisses when I circle my tongue around the tip letting the salty taste linger for a moment, before I reach forward and wrap my lips around his cock, taking his entire length until he hits the back of my throat. I bob my head up and down a few times, before grazing my teeth along his skin. His hands move to my head, twisting my hair around his fists. He lets out a groan as my teeth catch and I gently tug at his Prince Albert piercing. “Mo Chroí… fuck…” I smile as I suck his cock like a lollypop, pushing him to the back of my throat until I gag, then pulling off and doing it again. His hands grip tighter, as I move faster and faster. The saliva dripping from my mouth, I alternate between using my tongue and grazing with my teeth. I grip his thigh with one hand while I use my other hand to pull up my skirt. I slip my fingers into my panties and circle my clit, I’m so fucking turned on right now. I slip two fingers into my pussy as I let Killian pull my head all the way down his shaft and hold me there. I pump my fingers in and out as I feel tears leak from the corners of my eyes, and Killian’s cock pulses as he releases his cum into my mouth.
I do my best to swallow as much as I can, but he pulls me off, giving me a chance to breathe. Taking in a couple of breaths I wrap my mouth back around his cock, licking and sucking, cleaning every last drop of cum from his dick.
My breathing becomes rapid, and my pussy clenches, my stomach tightens, and I can’t hold it any longer. Killian grips my hair tipping my head back and slamming his hand over my mouth to stifle my cries as my orgasm rips through me.
Chapter 11
I watch as her mouth parts ever so slightly with each breath she lets out. I love nothing more than watching her sleep. I know she’s not been getting much sleep lately, and I know that it’s my fault. I toss and turn so much it wakes her. She asks me how I’ve slept, and I always say good… she knows I’m lying. But how do I tell her I can’t sleep, because when I do all I see is Da’s face, the disappointment clear as he shakes his head. Then Rory steps up… he tells me I’ve failed. That I’m failing them all. The moment I wake is the moment he tells me he sent Nora away because he doesn’t trust me to protect her or his babies. I’m afraid to sleep because in my sleep is when my fears come to life.
Not wanting to disturb Bella anymore, I pull on some joggers and head to my office. I down a glass of whiskey then pour myself another before leaning back in my chair. These last two years have been a shit show. Da was right, I’m just kidding myself, I’m not fit to rule this Syndicate.
I reach into the drawer and pull out the letter from Rory, reading over the last couple of lines:
Despite what you might think, leading does in fact come naturally to you. This Syndicate is yours it’s meant to be yours. As your brothers we’re just your partners, we’re there to support you, to stand beside you when you need it.
We have our own paths to lead, and yes, we are always going to be part of the Syndicate, but there will be times that our paths will simply run alongside yours, rather than on the same one as you.
Trust us, and more importantly trust yourself. You can do this; you should do this. It’s time for you to take the lead and let the rest of us take the paths we choose to take.
“What the hell did you see brother? What did you see that I don’t?” My phone vibrating on my desk pulls me from my wallowing. I sigh when I see who it is. “Benji, what’s going on?”
“I’m sorry to call you so late Sir.” Our contact at the dock stutters out, I can hear the nerves in his voice, and I know I won’t like whatever he’s about to say. “It’s fine, just spit it out.”
“The boat arrived as expected. But when I checked the containers as I usually do, the first two were full, but all the ones after them were empty. I checked all of the container’s Sir, all seventy-six. Sir… only two of the containers are full, the rest are completely empty. The shipment. It’s all gone.” I nod into the phone. He can’t see me, I know he can’t. “Sir?” I hang up without responding. There’s no point. I was expecting some of the shipment to go missing, we’d planned for it, accounted for it. But all of it. I don’t understand how this could have happened-we arranged for the shipment to be moved in stages, fifteen containers at a time. The ship was due to dock at twenty-one ports, a mix of weapons and empty containers to be loaded. We had two hundred containers loaded only seventy-six were to be loaded with weapons. Only six people knew the details. Myself, Connor, Benji and three people from the Bratva. I know it wasn’t me or Connor. I’m pretty sure I can trust Benji… that leaves the Bratva. I shoot off a text to Maxim to let him know. I throw my phone on the desk then roll my neck letting the tension roll through me as it cracks. But the rage continues to bubble up inside of me.
My glass shatters as I slam it against the wall, “FUCK.”
“Baby?” I startle as Bella enters my office. “What’s wrong?” I shake my head looking around my office, then back at her.
“Did I wake you?” I hold out my hand for her. Pulling her into my lap as she reaches me.
