Gage smiled, understandingly. “I understand that. However, I’m pretty sure that everyone else has already figured out the truth. He might even have some suspicions. You really need to talk to him very soon, because if he finds out from some other way besides from your mouth, things could get ugly.”
“I know. I will find a way.”
Gage patted my back and went back outside to help the kids with the murals.
Andrew called in later that evening, after the kids had gone to bed. He reported that he had “found” some records on a district attorney’s computer about Alan Duggers. There had been three separate occasions when Alan Duggers had been brought up for some charges, including conspiracy to commit murder. However, the charged were dismissed when some witnesses had “disappeared” without a trace. All the evidence that would have been presented in court also happened to disappear. Without witnesses and without evidence, all of the charges had been dismissed.
The question was who was helping him? Was it the district attorney? Was it law enforcement? Or was it both?
Gage told Andrew good job and that he should continue searching to find out any additional information. Andrew said, “Be careful guys. This man is very dangerous. From what I can tell, he isn’t just involved in land and real estate schemes. He seems to be very much involved in money laundering and perhaps drugs. Watch your backs.”
The news made me even more jittery than I was before. “Maybe I should just give in. A man like this wouldn’t think twice about hurting my babies. I can’t have them hurt.”
Gage said, “That, of course, is your choice. But even if you moved the kids to another location, we would stay here. We will take this man down one way or another before he hurts another person. He will continue his dirty deeds, hurting more and more innocent people until someone puts a stop to his actions. We are those someones.”
I smiled and nodded. “I have faith in you.”
Magnar had been listening in on the conversation. “I won’t let anything happen you, Mom, or any of my brothers and sisters. I will destroy anyone who tries.”
I couldn’t chastise him for being out of bed. He was an adult. However, his words scared me.
Lucian approached him. “We are here to protect everyone, too. I’m glad you love your family and you would protect them. However, you have to learn to control your emotions. When emotions get involved, you aren’t able to think clearly and you can’t control your actions. That could put you and your family in even more danger.”
Gage spoke up. “We’ve been talking. We think that you would make a great addition to our security team. When this is over, if you want to join, we would love to have you.”
Magnar’s smile split his face. “That would be awesome,” he said.
Lucian cautioned him. “You will have to do a lot of training before you do anything. Part of that training is learning out to control your emotions, especially your anger.”
Magnar nodded, his grin never fading.
I decided to head to bed. I hugged everyone, and left Magnar to talk to the other men. After all, as much as I thought of him as my baby, he was a man now.
Later that night, Damian came into my room again.
“Damian, we really need to talk about something. There is something I have to tell you,” I said.
“I know,” he said. “Ember I am so sorry that I never came back like I promised I would. I am so sorry that I didn’t find you when I got out of the Army.” His voice sounded very sad.
“I understand and it’s water under the bridge,” I said. “But we need to talk about something else.”
He smiled at me and leaned in to kiss me. “I know, Baby. We can talk in a bit. But first…” and his lips captured mine.
This time the love making was ferocious. He turned me over on my stomach and lifted me to my hands and knees. He licked my pussy and clit until he was sure that I was drenched and ready to receive his massive cock.
He quickly slammed his spear into me, burying it to the hilt. I moaned loudly as the tunnel walls wrapped themselves tightly around him.
My nipples rubbed against the sheets, as he pumped in and out of me, each time, embedding his cock deep in my body.
My body was trembling and a storm raged inside of my body. The air around us was electric, and I could swear that I saw tiny sparks of static cause by the friction between our bodies.
He was moaning and panting for air. He gripped my hips tightly and moved in and out of my pussy.
It didn’t take long before the familiar tingles started to form and grow exponentially. He drew his shaft all the way out and drove it into me, and I cried out.
“Damian. Oh, Damian, Heavens.”
I felt as though a volcano was exploding inside of me, and wave after wave of molten lava erupted, coating him with my liquid heat.
