Love to my faithfuls. =)
"JOE!" Billy thundered.
Joe vaguely registered the sound of Billy charging down the hall but Joe just groaned and covered his head with a pillow.
"JOE!" Billy thundered again now yanking Joe's bedroom door open. Joe decided to keep ignoring him and pressed the pillow down harder over his head.
Billy leaned down and snatched the pillow roughly yanking it away from his younger brother. "JOE!" Billy barked. Joe groaned sitting up. He rubbed his eyes and scratched his head, an angry Billy finally coming into his vision.
"What?" Joe grumbled, annoyed that Billy had woke him up and so rudely too.
Billy tossed the pillow back on Joe's bed. "Why the fuck does my car smell like a chick?"
Joe's eyes threatened to shoot wide open at that but he shrugged acting nonchalant. Elena. He hadn't even registered last night that the car would smell like her and give away Joe's joy ride.
"Picked one up last night." Joe replied lazily.
"I figured that." Billy narrowed his eyes at Joe. "Why does it smell like her in the fuckin' driver's seat?" Joe groaned; why was Billy getting so damn worked up? It's not like Billy never had a girl with him in the mustang. Of course it usually consisted of the girl sucking Billy's dick while he drove, not the girl doing the driving. He couldn't tell Elena had been the one driving could he?
"What's the big fuckin' deal? You have plenty of girls in the car." Joe grumbled scratching at his head again.
Billy's face relaxed and he ran a hand over his bald head. Something else had gotten him worked up. Joe's gut told him it was Bones but Billy would never talk about it. Billy bent his knees and sat down at the edge of the bed. He looked at Joe over his shoulder, a grin tugging at the corners of his mouth.
"She give ya a good ride?"
Joe returned the grin and nodded. "Like ya wouldn't fuckin' believe." She'd given Joe a ride all right, just not the way Billy was thinking. Not yet anyway.
"Calm down." Elena sighed holding the phone away from her ear. More curse words and yelling echoed over the line.
"Nikolai calm the fuck down." Elena said sternly. She was the only one who could talk to her brother like that.
"It shouldn't be takin' this fuckin' long." Nikolai growled on the other end.
"Relax. The shit will get here it always does." She heard him sighing. "Overseas travel isn't what it used to be brother."
"Nothing is what it used to be." He replied. She could just picture him running a hand over his head and pinching the bridge of his nose like he did when he was frustrated. She missed him but she would never say that. It would be seen as weak.
"Things running smoothly Elena?" He inquired, finally putting his fit aside for the moment.
"I got everything under control. But those fuck ups you hired are worthless." She said recalling Slade's little outburst last night.
"Elena…" Nikolai warned.
"You want me to do things right out here then I need better men. Simple as that. Fuckin' Slade turned inquisitor on me last night about being out. He's got no right to question me like that." She would scour Boston and find her own men then she could really get things under way.
"Are they really that bad?" She could hear the frustration in his voice.
"They're pathetic morons. They don't respect me enough and trust me enough to know I'm handling business when I'm out making them as useless as the dirt on my fuckin' shoe." She practically snarled into the phone.
Silence for a few moments. He was contemplating. "You want to find your own men Elena?"
"Yes! It's about time." She almost felt like celebrating. She always gave the men her brother hired a chance but sometimes you just had to count your loses before they royally fucked you over.
"Alright I trust ya." Nikolai was silent for a few moments again before he added. "How about I send Viktor and Mikhail out?"
Elena felt a big smile creeping up on her lips. She had grown up with Viktor and Mikhail they were the only people she truly trusted besides her brother. "Then I say you won't have to worry about any problems out here…. And thank you."
"You're welcome Elena… They will be there at the end of the week. Use this time to find other men you can rely on. And get rid of those useless fuckers in any way you see fit." Elena already knew the routine and Nikolai knew that but he told her every time out of habit.
"Already on it."
She could hear shuffling around like he was moving and finally sitting down on the couch. Probably his favorite black leather couch, the same one they watched movies on together when they were younger. Before the family business was their life and moments like that were lost.
"Bytʹ Bezopasnym." Nikolai's deep voice came on the other end.
"Bytʹ Bezopasnym." Elena replied. It meant 'be safe.' It was their way of saying I love you.
Elena ended the call and got ready to march downstairs. She was looking very forward to giving Slade the boot in the ass.
"Slade you worthless bastard." She called when she reached the bottom of the stairs.
He stepped out of the dining room area and into her view, cigarette dangling between his lips. He was obviously pissed off at being called that but he kept his mouth shut. If only he had done that last night… she might've given him another week or not been so harsh about kicking his ass to the curb. Oh well.
"Thanks for the use of your shitty house but I won't be needing it anymore." She crossed her arms over her chest.
He looked rather dumbfounded. "What are you talking about?"
"My family and I have no use for you anymore. You're out of a job sweetie, not that you were any good at it to begin with." She grinned smugly.
Now he was fuming. "Listen here you fuckin' bitch your brother…" He started but she cut him off.
"My brother told me to get rid of you by any means necessary… Use your imagination on that one Slade." She smirked as he practically tripped over himself.
"That's more like it." She made a tsking sound. "If ya had done that earlier… showed me a little fuckin' respect your ass wouldn't be in this mess."
Now he look flat out terrified, he knew what her family did to people they had no use for. It was never pretty and never painless. Slade shrank against the wall as Elena advanced on him.
Joe pulled into the lot of the Four Roses, it was a hour before everyone else would arrive but Joe was in a good mood and wanted a drink. Today had been a good day. Billy had given him the day off… another reward for making good sales. When Billy was proud of you rewards followed, and these rewards let the gang know Billy was proud of Joe. It wasn't an every day event and it was one that Joe didn't take lightly.
He pushed open the door, welcoming the familiar scents of alcohol and smoke that the bar offered. Sammy nodded at Joe. "What's up man?"
Joe returned the nod. "Day off." He replied simply.
"Celebrating huh?" Sammy grabbed a bottle of whiskey and poured Joe a shot. Joe nodded again before knocking back the shot. Joe's eyes wandered around the bar. A few regulars that seemed to live in the bar were there. Baggy's sister was working tonight and she gave Joe a small smile. There was a group of heavy set men in one corner, all smoking and already drunk off their asses. Then there was her.
Elena was here. She was sitting a small table in the back. The chair pushed against the wall, her feet propped up on the table. Her fingers skimmed along the rim of a Vodka bottle while she hissed out a puff of smoke. She was wearing tight dark jeans, black boots that went up to her knees and dark green top that showed just the right amount of cleavage. Damn she looked good.
Joe wasted no time in walking over to her. Spotting Joe she grinned. He leaned over the table towards her putting both hands on it to support himself. "Hello beautiful." He purred.
"Ya following me Joe?" She teased.
"Actually you're in my bar sweetheart." She could get used to that deep voice of his. It had a way of sending shivers in all the right places.
She cocked an eyebrow at him. "Your bar? So you own a hot car and a bar? Careful Joe you might start impressing me."
Joe grinned grabbing a chair from another table and straddled it. "I know I'm impressing ya baby."
Elena chuckled, shaking her head.
Joe motioned towards her with his head. "Ya like the Four Roses sweetheart?"
Elena grinned. "Well it's the only bar around here that isn't douched up."
"I'll take that as a yes."
"Handsome and smart." Elena quipped.
"You're a sassy little thing ain't ya?" Joe tugged his jacket off and draped it over the chair in front of him.
She hissed out more smoke, smirking at him. "Ya complain' Joe?"
Standing up Joe moved to stand right in front of her. He bent down until their faces were a few inches apart. Plucking the cigarette from her lips and bringing it to his own for a drag, he hissed out smoke before whispering in her ear. "Far from it baby. It's a big fuckin'turn on." She could practically feel his chest rumbling as his deep voice passed through his lips.
She took her cigarette back making sure her fingers brushed against his lips as did. "Ya ain't seen nothing yet handsome." She purred. Her voice was naturally smooth and sultry… he was picturing that voice talking dirty, begging for more when he had her pinned underneath him. That got him tightening against his jeans.
"Ya gonna drink with me Joe?" Her fingers went back to skimming the rim of the vodka bottle. The clear liquid it held tempting her.
"I'll drink with ya sweetheart… on one condition." She caught a mischievous gleam in his eyes as he spoke.
"What's that Joe?" She took a calming drag, closing her eyes for a moment as the smoke filled her lungs.
"Well…" He leaned close to her again. "You're far too sexy to be sitting on these shitty old chairs."
She smirked. This otta be good. "Where would you rather I sit Joe?"
"On my lap sweetheart." He gestured at himself, still keeping his face close to hers.
She chuckled. "Is it gonna be worth my while?" She teased.
"You have no fuckin' idea how much baby." He didn't give her a chance to respond. He just gripped her hips tightly and pulled her out of the chair, sliding himself into the seat at the same time, then placed her on his lap. Billy wasn't the only one who liked to pull that move. He started nuzzling her neck, fanning his warm breath over her skin. "Better than that chair baby?"
"I could get used to it." Elena replied grinning. It was usually hard to impress her but she had to admit that Joe was exceedingly handsome and very charming.
She wrapped her fingers wrapped around the bottle of vodka. Handing it to him she let him take the first swig. She smoked while he drank and then they switched. She handed him the cigarette and he handed her the bottle.
It didn't take them long to get through another cigarette and leave a good dent in the bottle. Elena wiggled around slowly pushing her ass into his crotch. She couldn't resist, it was fun playing dirty with Joe. He dug his fingers into her hips letting out a long groan.
Elena grinned. "You have a very sexy groan Joe… I wouldn't mind hearing it again."
"Only after I hear yours sweetheart." Joe murmured in her ear.
"Well can ya make me groan?" She whispered.
Oh he could make her do a lot more than that. He could make her pant, whimper, groan, moan, writhe and scream. He moved his hands down her legs, easing them apart as his lips latched onto her earlobe. He ran his hands teasingly along her inner thighs before one of his hands skimmed along the crotch of her jeans. She sucked in a deep breath, pushing herself against his hand. He gave her what she wanted, pressing his hand firmer against her denim covered heat. His lips moved down her neck, giving her a bite as his hand stroked and cupped her through the fabric. She arched into his touch again. "There ya go baby. Let me hear ya." Her eyes fluttering closed as she let out a throaty groan. Damn he was good.
The bar door opened and Joe stopped stroking her, much to Elena's disappointment. Billy walked in first, flanked by Bodie and Tommy; the rest of the men following behind them.
"Holy shit!" Baggy said followed by a whistle. "Look at that incredible piece of ass you're brother's got." Billy's steely blue eyes found Joe and he smirked. Baggy wasn't lying. Even Billy wouldn't mind sampling her. Wasn't every day he saw a girl like her. In fact he was pretty damn sure he'd never seen a girl with black hair and green eyes.
"Friends of yours?" Elena asked motioning to the group of men.
Joe nodded. "Ya could say that. Billy's my brother." He motioned to the obvious leader of the group. She gave a soft grunt in response and started to get off Joe's lap so he could greet them.
"Don't get up on my account sweetheart." Billy's deep voice reached her ears. "My brother looks like he's enjoying having ya there."
Elena smirked. "He should be. I ain't the kind of girl that sits on anyone's fuckin' lap."
Billy chuckled. Gorgeous and she had a mouth on her. Joe did good. A familiar scent reached Billy's nose and he grinned. "This the girl ya had in my car last night Joe?"
Elena cocked an eyebrow. "His car?"
Billy's eyebrows slightly furrowed together. "Ya didn't know that sweetheart?"
Elena grinned. "No I didn't. But it wasn't the owner that mattered last night, it was the driver." All the men were looking at her. "And Joe gave me one hell of a ride." The men broke out into grins followed by hooting and hollering. Joe let out a sigh of relief; he'd been worried she would tell Billy she was the one driving.
"Damn Joe, ya hit the fuckin' jackpot with this one." Bodie smirked giving Joe a nod of approval.
The men made their way over to their usual table, still laughing and Billy lingered for a minute. "Come on Joe, bring ya little spitfire."
Both Darley's were having a damn good week. Billy's obvious good mood tonight was proof of that.
Elena got up, grabbing the half full bottle of vodka. "I ain't little but I don't mind being called spitfire." She told Billy as she passed him. Billy chuckled.
Joe was behind her in seconds, sitting down at his usual seat so he could tug her onto his lap.
"You a vodka girl darlin'?" Spink said motioning to the bottle.
"Practically raised on this shit." She murmured bringing the bottle to her lips taking a long pull. She'd been drinking it before she hit double digits in age. That pretty much constituted being raised on it. "Drank it more than water since I was 8."
Billy looked up at her, as he lit a fresh cigarette. He hadn't been expecting that answer. Sounded like his relationship with whiskey.
"What's your name babydoll?" Tommy questioned.
God these men really loved using pet names. She turned her head looking at him. "Elena."
"How do ya look like that?" Heco leaned back in his seat. She cocked an eyebrow at him, not sure what he meant. "Never seen a girl with black hair and green eyes." Billy hadn't been the only one who noticed that.
She shrugged. "Mother's from Brazil my dad's Russian. Other than that I ain't got an answer for ya." She knew it was a strange combination and she wasn't sure what specifics gave her these features but she never questioned it. Even her brother didn't have these features. Nikolai had a different mother, he was full Russian.
The gang seemed pretty comfortable around her and it didn't take her long to warm up to them. She'd grown up with men just like this… same raunchy conversations… same foul mouths… same tough guy attitude… everything. It was like being home again.
Elena was with the guys for an hour before she felt her pocket vibrating. She knocked back the shot she had in her hand, having finished off the bottle of Vodka between her and Joe awhile ago. She dug the cell out of her pocket answering without looking at the caller ID.
"Lo?" She thought the laughter of the men was going to make it hard to hear the person on the other end but she was wrong.
"WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?" Nikolai growled.
"What's going on?" Elena replied, getting agitated herself.
"THE SHIPMENT ARRIVED AND YOU AREN'T THERE. WHY THE FUCK NOT?"
Elena furrowed her eyebrows, pinching the bridge of her nose. "What the fuck are you talking about? Last night you were bitchin' about them not being on time." She chose her words carefully… making it sound like they could be fighting about anything not a shipment of guns.
"They're there now." He finally calmed down.
"Well no one fuckin' called me. So how the hell was I supposed to know?" He might be calming down but she was still agitated.
"I…I don't know. Just get down there. This can't be fucked up." Once Viktor and Mikhail were there and she had her two right hand men back this shit wouldn't happen again.
"On my way." Elena snapped the phone closed. All the men were looking at her with confused expressions but Billy who looked amused.
"Daddy want ya back home?" He mocked.
Elena flipped him off smirking as she stood up. "My daddy doesn't control me Billy, he tried but..." She shrugged. "He just couldn't do it."
Billy scoffed. "Ya can't be that hard ta handle sweetheart."
"You'd be surprised." She grinned. "Never underestimate a spitire Billy."
Billy narrowed his eyes, hissing out smoke. "I got no intention of it darlin'."
Ignoring Billy's last statement Elena continued. "It's been a pleasure boys." She gave a quick smile then walked out of the bar. Whatever asshole neglected to inform her was going to pay dearly. She pulled her keys out of her back pocket.
"Hold on sweetheart." Joe. She turned around, just a few feet away from her car.
"What Joe?" She hid her agitation since it wasn't directed at him.
"Ya forgot something." His eyes gleamed. She furrowed her eyebrows together, trying to figure out what he could be talking about.
She gave up. "What are you talking about?"
He didn't answer. He just pushed her up against her car, his mouth hotly claiming hers. She really didn't have time for this…but she couldn't resist giving in. One of his hands came up cradling the back of her head while the other wrapped around her waist pulling her body tight against his. His kiss was rough, demanding but with a rare gentle edge to it. His tongue ran along her lips and she immediately granted him access.
Running her hands down his back she reached his ass giving him a firm squeeze. He groaned into her mouth his tongue sliding back and forth over hers. Keeping one hand on his ass she reached with the other to tug at his hair. Their lips and tongues moved together in perfect rhythm evoking moans and groans. When they finally pulled apart Elena ran her tongue over own lips, grinning at the lingering taste of him.
"I wasn't gonna let ya leave again without kissing me first." He murmured, still holding her body close to his. She wanted more but if she didn't take care of this shipment her ass was in deep shit.
"Ya know the little hotel a few blocks down." He nodded slowly. After getting rid of Slade she checked into that hotel… it would do until she found something more permanent. "Meet me there in two hours. Room 13." She was still panting but the words came out clear. He grinned pulling her back for another kiss. They finally managed to pull apart and Elena quickly got in her car, if she didn't get out of there then she never would.
When Joe entered the bar again all eyes were on him. He knew his lips were red and his cheeks were flushed.
"Ya weren't out there very long Joe." Baggy stated.
Joe just grinned. "We ain't done yet boys. We're locking ourselves in a hotel room tonight." Cheers broke out and Billy clapped him on the back. Those two hours couldn't go by fast enough.
I got two words for you next chapter. Joe smut! Hit that review button and leave your thoughts. =)
