"Morning, Pol." I greeted, walking into the kitchen. "I weren't expecting you this early." I told her, pouring myself a cup of tea. She watched me for a moment as I sat opposite her. "I've come to warn you, Evelyn." she told me, her voice low. "Warn me about what?" I replied, my own demeanor frosting over. "Tommy knows about you and Michael. I don't know how much he knows, but he knows the pair of you have been fucking about." she told me, her voice cold and the look in her eyes told me she wasn't bluffing. "Right, and what does Tommy think he's going to do about it?" I questioned, sipping my tea. "I don't know yet but you've been fucking him as well, haven't you?" she asked and I finally looked away from her. "You've always needed too fucking much from a man. You were head over heels with John so he placated you for a while, but even when he was around your eye would wander. The gypsy blood in you is too strong for one man to appease." she added, a sympathetic tone edging into her voice.
"I'm a fucking mess, Pol." I whispered, fighting back tears and I knew the cocaine in my system wasn't helping. "Michael is so kind and loving and gentle and I really fucking needed him. But Tommy is so raw and reminds me so much of John and I really fucking needed him. And I know it's fucking wrong, Pol. I fucking know and I couldn't keep away from either of them." I poured out as hot tears streaked my face. Polly looked at me for a moment before sighing. "You're right, you are a fucking mess but we are going to sort you out." she told me, looking at me sternly.
"Tommy has sent Michael to stay with the Golds until this all blows over so that's one less distraction and you and Tommy are going to stop using each other to feel something, you understand?" she told me, her eyebrow raised as I nodded obediently. She nodded back firmly, finishing her tea and standing. "You're a good girl, Evie, and a good mother. Act like it." she told me, pressing her lips to my head before exiting the kitchen and leaving the house.
An hour later I was making my way to the gym to watch Bonnie train, my heeled shoes tapping against the road. I let out a muffled scream as a hand went over my mouth and I was pulled into a nearby alley. My panic subsided when I saw who my assailant was. Bonnie Gold gave me a cheeky grin as he removed his hand from my mouth. I lightly slapped his arm and shook my head slightly, fighting the smile on my lips. "Now, Mr. Gold, it's not proper to be pulling unsuspecting girls into alleyways." I chided, mockingly. "I just couldn't help myself, Miss Shelby." he smirked before pressing his lips to mine. I smiled against his lips, wrapping my arms around his neck as his went to my waist.
My heart sped up slightly as Bonnie pressed my back against the wall and deepened the kiss. However I was left pouting up at him once he pulled away. "What?" he chuckled, his arms still around me. "You've been very gentlemanly, Mr Gold." I said, narrowing my eyes at the gypsy boy. "You say that like it's a bad thing." he grinned, tilting his head slightly. I tilted my head slightly to match his, looking up at him for a moment before pulling from his arms. "Here, I was thinking you were a proper gyspsy man." I said in a teasing tone before going to walk away. I gasped as he grabbed my wrist, forcing me against the wall and his hand going between my legs. I gasped as I felt him touch me through my underwear, my eyes meeting his as he pressed his body into mine to keep me against the wall. I moaned lightly as he massaged me through the thin fabric, resting my head back against the wall and keeping eye contact with him.
My breath quickened further when he found his way into my underwear, my body flinching slightly at the feel of his skin against mine. Bonnie captured my next moan in his mouth, pressing his lips against mine. My hand knotted in his hair as I felt my climax building, his lips not leaving mine as he pressed his finger inside of me. My body arched into his and he left my lips to trail kisses along my jaw and neck. A few nibbles at my sensitive skin pushing me over the edge and climaxing around his fingers. He held me firmly against him as he stroked me through my orgasm, my head buried in his chest to muffled my sounds of pleasure and my hands tensing in his hair and in his coat.
Bonnie kissed my head as he removed his hand from me, I pressed my lips to his before leaning my head back against the wall to catch my breath. He kept his eyes on mine as he popped his fingers in his mouth, licking them clean and watching me before pressing his lips to mine once more. I could taste myself on his lips and this made my body cry out for more, my hips involuntarily pushing themselves into his. His body pushed forward, meeting mine and forcing my butt back against the wall. He broke the kiss, pressing his lips against my forehead before looking down into my eyes. "You are an extraordinary woman, Evie Shelby." he told me, a smirk on his face. "And you are an extraordinary man." I replied and pressed my lips to his once more. "Let's get you to the gym before King has both our heads." I smiled, reluctantly pulling from his arms.
"You're late." King shouted across the gym as we walked in. "Sorry, King, my fault. I needed Bonnie to do something for me." I replied, looking slyly as Bonnie who gave me a grin and a wink before going over to King, stripping as he went. "If your brother wants me to train him, he needs to be here on time, Mrs Shelby. I have plenty of other lads I could be working with." King scolded as I made my way over as well. "You want him to be a boxer or a fucking errand boy?" he added as I leant against the windowsill. "It won't happen again." I dismissed, shooting King a look that told him to drop it and we both focused our attention on Bonnie.
"Put some fucking effort into it, the fight's in two days." Maine shouted at Bonnie and I crossed my arms, watching him move. "Get used to the reach. Get used to the long arm on him." he added as I turned to see Tommy approaching, leaning against the windowsill with me. "You're here again." he commented, lighting a cigarette. "He asked me to." I countered, my eyes going back to Bonnie. I silently wondered if Polly had given him the same lecture I had had that morning. We stayed in silence for a few moments before Tommy pushed off the windowsill and left. I turned my head slightly to watch him leave and when I looked back at the ring, Bonnie was watching me. I gave him a reassuring smile which he returned before going back to the man in front of him.
"My good luck charm." Bonnie smiled as I walked into the changing room. I smiled back at him, walking confidently over to him. "You're looking good." I smiled, looking down at his wrapped hands. "I'm feeling good." he responded, grinning as he pulled me into him. I pressed my lips to his, his arms going around my waist and pulling my body closer to his. I deepened the kiss, my body on fire from the cocaine and having his body close to mine. I pulled away from him after a few moments, smiling up at him as my body screamed for more. "Gotta save some of that energy for the fight." I told him, pressing my lips to his jaw. "I have plenty of energy for you and the fight." he replied with a grin on his face. "I'll hold you to that once you've won." I told him as we heard someone coming down the hall and we reluctantly pulled away from each other. Aberama looked between us as he came in. "Should you be in here?" he asked, frowning. "I'm just waiting for my brothers." I replied, sitting down on the bench as he came to lean against the wall. Bonnie sat down next to me and a few moments later, we heard more people approaching.
I looked up as Arthur, Tommy and Finn entered. "Bonnie, boy. Here we go, boy." Arthur said as he walked in, pouring some snow into his hand as Bonnie stood. "Bring out that fucking tiger, eh. Go on." Arthur told him, holding out his hand. Bonnie looked at Arthur for a moment before his eyes came to mine. "Tiger is already out." he said, his eyes going back to Arthur. "Fair enough." Arthur grinned before swallowing the powder in his hand and turning back to Tommy.
"Bonnie." Aberama said and Bonnie went over to him. I stood, going over to Tommy, Arthur and Finn. "How is he?" Tommy asked, keeping an eye on the Gold men. "Confident." I replied, "I think he'll do well." I added and the boys nodded. "Been caged up too long, brother." Arthur called before leaving. I glanced over at Bonnie, his eyes already on me and he gave me a wink before I followed Arthur out. "If the women are gonna have fun, so am I." Arthur declared as we walked back down the hallway, Finn and Tommy behind me.
