Six

Mackenzie

Sitting back at my desk I try re-arranging all the files scattered across the black glossy surface trying to think of anything else besides what just happened out back. Holy fucken shit I’m so keyed up right now I think if he even breathes in my direction right now, I would probably jump him. My cheeks heat, tingles dance down my spine as my thoughts race thinking that’s the second time he has given me an orgasm in the past forty-eight hours and hasn’t asked for anything in return, I bite my lip remembering his sweet delicious promise for tonight. I’m so consumed in my thoughts that I jump a little at the sound of Grayson's deep voice booming across the room.

“Mick what are you doing down here?” 

I snap my eyes up when it finally registers what he said as I see Mick walking through the glass front doors. My body locks and freezes wondering what the hell he is doing here, I bite my lip worried he noticed I took all my stuff with me this morning and I’m worried he may cause a scene.

“Hey King” he lifts his chin in greeting “I need to speak to my sister for a minute,” he looks straight at me “Step sister,” I mumble under my breath before forcing a smile on my face as I push to my feet.

“Sure, why don’t we go outside,” I say as casually as I can muster as I make my way past him heading straight out the front doors knowing he will follow me.

“What the fuck Mac?” he spits out as soon as the door shuts behind him and I turn to face him on the footpath, I can see the anger as plain as day now that no one else is around and maybe coming out here wasn’t such a good idea.

“What’s wrong?” I act like I don’t know what the hell he’s talking about.

“You too fucking good to live with me?” he starts to pace running his hands wildly through his hair and I wonder why the fuck he’s acting like this and I’m not sure what to say to his question without firing him up even more. So, I just shrug my shoulder. I think that was the wrong thing to do when he grabs me by the arm and begins to push his uncut dirty nails into the top of my arm.

“Shit, let go of me” I grit out gripping his hand and bending it back the other way to get him to release me. “Piece of shit don’t ever touch me again,” I push him off me making him stumble back a step and that’s when I notice how wild his eyes are.

Shit is he high?

“Are you fucking him?” he grits out as spit flies from his mouth. I take a step back as the anger in his words hits me in the face. Oh, fuck no, you have got to be kidding me right now. Is he bloody jealous? Disgust runs fast and hard down my spine as bile rises in my throat.

“That’s none of your business. Just go home Mick and don’t come back,” I go to storm past him not wanting to be anywhere near him right now. I knew he was screwed up but this is just messed up I think just as Grayson comes out the doors with a hard look on his face.

“Stupid bitch” Mick spits out at the same time and before I can pass him he swings out and smacks me straight across the face I hiss out against the sharp sting but before I can kick his ass Grayson shouts out “Son of a bitch,” pure rage pouring off him in waves and in a blink of an eye he knocks Mick on his ass in one swing “Get up you pussy, you think you can touch my woman and get away with it you stupid son of a bitch.”

Shit, rubbing my face I quickly race in front of him, putting both my hands up before he kills Mick.

“I’m okay,” I repeat over and over till I get his hard eyes on me, blowing out the breath I didn’t realise I was holding when he wraps his arms tight around me and his eyes soften scanning every inch of my face.

“You’re coming home with me,” he gruffs out not asking but telling me and all I can do is just nod my head against his hard chest feeling his hard breaths start to even out at my agreement.

“Stupid slut, spreading your legs for that piece of shit" Mick groans out trying to get to his feet but my man has other ideas as he kicks him in the guts knocking the wind from him again.

“Piece of shit, one more fucking word and I will end your miserable fucking life,” he grunts his muscles tensing ready to kick his ass again.

Turning around in Grayson’s hold I look down at Mick writhing like a worm in pain on the ground and nothing but disgust runs through me.

“You ever come near me again you won’t have to worry about him kicking your ass ‘cause I’ll do it myself you got me you waste of space,” I spit out about to take a step forward but my man has other ideas and pulls me back into his warm chest and grunts turning back into his hold I look up into his smokey green eyes that are swimming with so much possessiveness that a whole new feeling races through me. Reaching up I cup his cheeks running my nails back and forth through his five o’clock shadow.

“I’m okay” I say again trying to reassure him, holding me firm to his chest he bends and kisses the top of my head, and my hands slide to the back of his neck at the movement, letting my nails tease the hair on the back of his neck before slipping them back around his waist. Leaning back, I lock eyes with him again, wincing a little in pain when he rubs the pad of his thumb across my cheek. I try to hide it but his nostrils flare and his jaw clenches. So, I guess I didn’t hide it very well. His eyes narrow on Mick again above my head who’s still whining and moaning in pain on the ground, he goes to move me out of the way but I wrap my arms tighter around his waist, just as Phoenix and Tanner pull into the carpark.

“What’s going on brother” Tanner calls out getting out of a big black SUV.

“This piece of shit thought he could lay his filthy fucking hands on my woman,” the vibration of his gruff voice penetrates every cell in my body, squeezing my thighs together as a dull ache begins to build and it only gets worse when Grayson whispers in my ear “Soon Princess,” running small circles on my lower back with his hand is not helping my situation at all right now either and if his low chuckle is anything to go by he knows exactly what he is doing to me.

“What the fuck,” Phoenix spits out snapping me back to reality, shit I thought Phoenix and Tanner were still inside but they must have raced off somewhere. I know they are still trying to track down their latest jumper.

“You hit your fucking sister you piece of shit,” Tanner growls out.

“Step” I mumble

“What was that babe?” Grayson asks.

“I’m his step sister his dad married my mum, but they got divorced about 2 years ago, but his father still cares about me,” I mumble the last part and I wonder if Grayson even heard me. I feel his lips on the top of my head before he mumbles that we can talk about it later and I just nod into his chest before I feel warm hands grab me from behind and start to turn me into a warm comforting embrace.

“Come on sweet girl let’s get you inside and let the boys work this out.”

“Okay Mrs King,” I murmur into her neck as my cheek begins to throb.

“You are now part of this family so no more of this Mrs King crap it’s either mum or Tanya that’s it.”

Nodding I can’t stop the soft laugh that slips up my throat.

“Mum take care of my girl,” Grayson says worry lacing his tone.

“I’m fine I promise. It was just a shock I didn’t expect it that’s all,” but he just grunts still not impressed.

“Come on sweetheart let’s get you some ice,” Tanya says I smile when I feel his lips hit the top of my head before his mum leads me away.
