Fuse's Hold by E.C. Land (world of reading TXT) 📗

shirt, keys, wallet, and shit from Pitch Black before climbing in behind the steering wheel. It didn’t matter to me. I’d been shirtless as I walked out of the warehouse since my only thought had been getting my woman out of there away from someone who’d hurt her.

I’d seen the fear in her gaze and knew she’d shared this with Tyres. I also had confirmation when he’d given a quick jerk of his chin, letting me know they had her.

Pulling out of the parking lot, Chains and Tyres in front with Pitch Black and Breaker, the rest fall in behind me. My brothers knew where I intended to go after the fight and headed in that direction.

When I’d told Breaker about my plan about taking Lyrica for a tattoo after the match, my brother thought it was a good idea. Even though I could sense he felt like an ass for shooting his ol’ lady down without thinking it over first. He just didn’t want to put Ly and me through more if we didn’t have to which I understand more than anything. We look after our own.

Evidently, when he’d taken her to his room and fucked her, he found out not only was she pregnant with their second kid, but she’d finally told him she was scared he didn’t want her anymore. That she wasn’t enough. How the woman got that in her head is beyond me. Breaker can’t seem to shut up about his ol’ lady.

Maybe my brother just needs to take her away for a bit, just the two of them. It might actually do the two of them some good.

I’m not into the whole bitch talking like my cock is turning into a pussy, but rather I’m thinking of stuff I’d do for Lyrica in a way to fix us. Like I’m doing now.

While waiting for my match to start, I’d sent Jasper a text telling him he and the guys needed to stay open tonight. I’d have Jasper work on me as Noé did his work. Robby would most likely end up working with one of the other guys.

I’d had Jasper draw something up a while back and I waited to get it done as I wanted it to be done when I knew for a fact my woman would agree to be mine.

It doesn’t take us long to get to the tattoo shop and I park the truck right in front. Turning the key to shut the engine down, I twist in my seat and take in the sight of Ly. When I’d asked her if she’d been ready to go see Noé, she’d agreed and something in her eyes flickered. It had been as if life came swarming back into her.

I couldn’t be more thrilled about this and I intend to make sure that light stays in her eyes.

I open the door on my side, hop out, and round the front to move toward her door. Ly already has her door open when I get to her and is turned for me to lift her out of the seat.

Giving Lyrica a grin, I set her on her feet and wrap my arm around her shoulders, keeping her tucked in close to me. Once inside the shop, Ly is nearly yanked out of my arms by the men she worked with here.

“Swear to fuckin’ God, woman, you do that shit to us again and we’re burning shit to the ground until we see your ass again.” This coming from Robby.

“You’re not allowed to close us out of your life,” Jasper mutters.

“You’re like our fuckin’ sister and from now on, if your ass isn’t here in your chair when it’s supposed to be, I’m coming after you myself,” Noé snaps. Out of all three of them, I didn’t think it would be him to make that threat. I figured it’d be his partner, Jasper, who did it.

Those two are comical on a good day but seeing them bicker and yell at each other is something I’ve missed. They’re hilarious when it comes to their arguments. Now with the two of them and Robby, they’re all facing off together with Ly, expressing their dislike for her not allowing them to come visit her.

“Um,” Ly starts.

“Don’t you um us, missy,” Robby grumbles and pulls her further into the shop. “Now you’re gonna tell us what the fuck is going on with you? Then you’ll tell me what you want pierced. I know you mentioned a couple things you wanted, and we’ve already done two of them.”

There’s my answer to who pierced her clit. I don’t know whether to be pissed about this or grateful, considering it’s now mine to enjoy playing with when I eat her pussy.

Fuck, just the thought of doing that causes my cock to stiffen.

“Um,” Ly murmurs again.

“Robby, she’ll get to that in a bit. Fuse here is getting a tat and so is Ly,” Lynch says, speaking up.

“What? You’re finally getting a tat?” Robby asks.

Lyrica looks from me, then back to him and nods. “I don’t know what I want, though,” she whispers.

“I do,” I mutter and pull out the drawing I’d snagged before leaving the house of the fairy and phoenix embracing in the fire. I see Lyrica’s eyes widen at the sight of the drawing when I show it to Noé.

“That’s some sick shit,” Noé says, taking the drawing from me. “Ly, you did good on this.”

“Um, thank you,” she murmurs softly.

“Come on, let’s go get you started. I wanna freehand this shit. You good with that?” he asks, taking Lyrica’s hand.

“Of course I am. I trust you to not screw something up when it comes to free handing.” That’s my woman making it known she wasn’t scared.

“Here, man, we’ll get you started as well since I know what you’re getting,” Jasper mutters.

“Appreciated.” I knew my tat would take him a while to do.

“Well, shit, who am I gonna be working on?” Robby grumbles.

Grinning, I shake my head. He’s a piece
