SAVAGE LOVE (A Back Down Devil MC Romance Novel) (29 page)

twenty-six.

The clubhouse would be fixed. The
prospects who had half a brain were already working on the mess Chief Jerry had
made. Ella and Beck were fine and Miller barely got out of needing surgery. The
bullet was plucked from his shoulder and he was stitched up and told he could
leave in a day or two. To Miller, that meant a couple hours.

Jerry
’
s
cabin burned to the ground. He was officially - and finally - gone for good.

The guys were standing around
Miller
’
s bed as he started
to come out of a deep trance from the painkillers. For a second he swore he saw
Griffin standing there, but the image faded and switched to Trev.

“
What
happened to you?
”
he asked
Trev.

“
Rode
them out of town,
”
Trev
said.

“
What?
”

“
Jerry
’
s guys. The black clothes guys,
”
Gaige said.
“
They came after everyone. Trev
led them on a chase. Crazy fucker stole one of their trucks.
”

“
I
had them too. Then they ganged up on me and tried beating me to death. So I
laughed each time they hit me. Then they just stopped. They had police scanners
and radios. I heard that there was a fire on the mountain and I thought the
worst for you, brother.
”

“
You
really put yourself on the line for us,
”
Miller said.
“
I want you to
have a cut. To wear the name and logo again, brother. I
’
m serious. Full-time spot at the table.
”

“
Aye,
”
Shay said.
“
We can vote right now.
”

“
I
’
m in,
”
Jace said.

“
No,
”
Trev said.
“
I
’
m
here to help. He
’
s gone,
but this isn
’
t over yet.
The club has a lot to do. I
’
ll
be there, for everyone. I have my leather cut. I have my memories. I don
’
t want anyone to forget about Griffin.
”

Miller nodded.
“
Where
’
s Ella?
”

“
I
’
m right here,
”
a voice said.

Jace and Erik broke apart and Ella
stood with Beck.

“
Everyone
out,
”
Miller said.
“
Give me some time with my
family.
”

Gaige grabbed Miller
’
s hand.
“
Saw this on the floor
…
make it right.
”

Miller felt the diamond ring in his
hand, again.

“
Come
here,
”
Miller said to Ella.

The first thing he did was pull her
down for a kiss. The second thing he did was kiss Beck
’
s little head.

“
I
’
m so sorry,
”
Miller whispered.

“
Don
’
t do that,
”
Ella said.
“
There
’
s no reason for that. It
’
s over, like you promised. I
’
m safe. Beck is safe. We
’
re safe.
”

“
There
’
s a lot to clean up. Stories to
get straight. But it
’
s okay
now. He can
’
t hurt you,
darling. You shouldn
’
t even
be here with us. It looks bad.
”

“
I
don
’
t care,
”
Ella said.
“
I
’
ll
tell the truth of who he was. I
’
m
not afraid, Miller. You make me not afraid. And that
…
that scares me. It sounds stupid
…”

“
No,
”
Miller said.
“
You make me afraid. I
’
m not even afraid of death. But
I am afraid of losing you. And Beck.
”

“
You
won
’
t.
”

Miller opened his hand.
“
So make it right, darling. With
me. Fuck all the time we lost when we were apart. We have the whole future
ahead of us.
”

Ella blinked as she stared at the
ring.

“
I
want you forever. Wear the diamond you were supposed to for all these years. Be
my wife. Be my everything.
”

“
Yes,
”
Ella said.
“
Miller, yes.
”

Ella took the diamond ring and
finally slid it on her finger. It looked perfect on her. Miller grinned,
picturing Ella wearing nothing but that diamond ring. That would be his first
order of business once out of the hospital. Then he
’
d plan the wedding Ella truly deserved. Because she
’
d be marrying a man who would
take a bullet for her
…
a
man who would offer his heart in a way he never knew how until now.

“
And
you, little dude,
”
Miller
said, letting Beck grab his finger.
“
You
’
re my wing man on this thing. I
can
’
t do this without you.
”

Beck pulled at Miller
’
s finger and bit him.

Ella burst in laughter and then
started to cry.

Miller pulled her - and Beck - to
the bed and he held them both.

Outside the room, he had his
brothers.

Inside, he now had his family.

***

Blaine sat up in his bed. A sheet
barely covered the
goods
of his naked body. Hell, when flexed hard
enough, his dick jumped under the sheet, looking like some kind of monster
ready to attack.

Fucking right, ladies. This is
monster that hid under your bed
…
now it
’
s in
your mouth
…
between your thighs
…

There was a woman curled up at the
end of the bed, sleeping. Another woman on the floor. The too
–
of course
–
were both naked.

It was just the way to live.

Sex was the greatest high in the
world. That, and the open road. Hell, the open road hadn
’
t been so much lately, with all the wars raging.
Yeah, Chief Jerry was finally put out of his fucking misery, but that meant
dick for the MC. Maybe for Miller it was all good. He
’
d get to play family now with that sweet ass, Ella.

Man, she was fucking good looking.
And those big tits
…
full of
milk
…

Blaine licked his lips.

He shook his head.

There were just so many women and
really not enough time.

Then again, what did it all mean?

Not a fucking thing.

Blaine reached over and opened the
nightstand drawer. Most people would think the drawer would be full of condoms
and sex toys and lubes and shit.

No.

There was a little diamond there.

If anyone dug deeper, they
’
d find the pictures.

Nobody got to see the pictures.

Blaine would fucking kill anyone
who tried to see the pictures.

Holding the little diamond ring, Blaine curled his lip.

A little girl used to wear that
ring.

Blaine had given it to her.

She was the most beautiful girl in
the world. Hell, only matched by her mother, and that was because they looked
so much alike.

Don
’
t
get the wrong idea
…
Blaine was a sick and twisted asshole. But he had to be. It was the only way to hide the
pain. To his the secrets of his past life.

A life when he had a wife and a
daughter. But they were killed.

Funny thing
–
they were killed because of what Blaine used to do
before he went outlaw. When he used to put on a badge and stand on the other
side of justice.

His family was dead because he
was once a cop.

Thank you so much
