Page 3 of Knuckle's Dispute

Knuckles reaches around my body after unlinking our fingers and pulls my body back against his.His pace is brutal while he thrusts his hips faster and harder.He’s now chasing his own release and using my body to find it.

“Janessa!”he groans, pressing his face in my shoulder.

Knuckles keeps his arms wrapped around my body and holds me up on legs that aren’t strong enough to hold me.Our chests are heaving as we try to catch our breath and slow our racing hearts down.I’m still wrapped in his arms as he slowly moves us from the door of the office to the couch I didn’t even notice before now.Before helping me sit on the couch, Knuckles bends down and pulls my jeans and panties back up my legs before buttoning them again and moving to grab my shirt and bra I don’t even remember taking off.

After a few minutes, when I can finally breathe again, I get off the couch and keep my back to Knuckles.

“Thank you, Micah.I’ll get out of your way and let you enjoy the rest of your night,” I tell him, not giving him a chance to respond before leaving the office and Knuckles behind.

I got what I wanted—forgetting for a while of the shitshow my life is.Knuckles also got off and is done with me.He won’t want me to act like a clingy schoolgirl with her first crush or burden him with hanging around when he just wants to get back to his night and finding a different woman to take back to the clubhouse or wherever he chooses to fuck them.There’s no hesitation in my steps as I make my way through the bar and out into the cool night air.It’s dark out now and I really should have thought better about walking home alone in the dark.Unfortunately, it’s too late for me to change my earlier thoughts and actions.

Chapter One

Knuckles

Seven and a half months later

WALKING INTO THE clubhouseafter working at the gym all day, the last person I expected to see was Janessa sitting at a table in a back corner with Rooster, Marie, and one of our Prospects Seth.Janessa’s back is to me as I take in her long dark brown hair.With the overhead lights of the common room shining down on her, the red highlights shine bright.Her shoulders are shaking with laughter as I stand just inside the door of the clubhouse and watch her.I haven’t seen her since we were together that night in Down ‘n Dirty.I’ve either been at work or on a run when she’s been here.Not that it’s been often, but I’ve heard from others about her stopping in due to Rooster or Marie inviting her or one of the guys getting in trouble in one way or another.

For the first time in my life, I can’t get a woman out of my head.Since the night we were together, Janessa has been in my head and I’ve barely touched another woman.I can still taste her and remember the softness of her skin as I ran my hands over her lush body.I’ve never been with a woman with as many curves as Janessa, but now it’s all I want.The girls who hang around the clubhouse and flock to me at bars or wherever else I go, don’t get my cock hard any longer.Everyone has been making comments about me not being with the Slayer Slits or taking one of the random girls when we’re out to fuck somewhere.Now, she’s sitting here as if nothing has changed in her world when everything in mine has.

“Knuckles, what the fuck are ya doin’?”Tease asks me, walking in behind me and placing a hand on my shoulder.

“Why’s she here?”I ask, not taking my eyes off Janessa as Rooster looks up at me from across the room and a slow smile spreads across his face.

“Janessa?From what I hear, Seth got in some trouble when he tried to save his sister from bein’ raped at a party.Janessa is dealin’ with his case and they’ve been meetin’ over the last week since it happened,” my best friend answers me, as I watch Rooster wave me over to their table.

I don’t hesitate to move across the room as anger fills me with the thought of Janessa living her life and forgetting all about the night we shared.This shit doesn’t happen to me.Ever.There’s no way in hell I’m about to let this woman play me for a fucking fool or act as if we didn’t have the best night of our lives almost eight months ago.

Stepping up to the table next to Janessa, I watch as the smile disappears from her face and her cornflower blue eyes look up into mine.Today, with the light shining down on her, there’s a hint of purple as I watch her move her hands to cover her stomach.Her very round and large stomach.

“What the fuck?”I blurt out before I can stop myself.“You’re fuckin’ pregnant?”

“Knuckles, why the fuck are you yellin’ at Janessa?”Marie questions me, her voice hard and cold as she stands from her seat and stares me down.

“You jumped right from fuckin’ me to someone else.Didn’t think you were like that, Janessa,” I state, my voice hard and cold, almost deadly with how low it’s gone as Rooster and Seth stand from the table and move to stand closer to the woman I haven’t been able to forget.
