Risky Secrets Page 8

  She had to be alive. Tom dreaded the thought of finding Jayne dead. It was possible that this was all a ruse to get him up here and that bastard had already done away with her. The idea sent chills through him. “What if she’s—?”

  “She’s not,” Keith quickly corrected. “Don’t even think that. Jayne’s his insurance that he’ll get the money from you. It’s a hostage thing.”

  “But sometimes things don’t go as planned.” Tom couldn’t help but think what would happen then.

  “Jayne’s going to be fine and so are you. I promise and you need to trust me. I think I see something. Keep quiet.”

  The road suddenly broke open into a clearing in the middle of the forest. This was the main camp. Keith froze for a minute. “This is it,” he muttered. There was a large building situated in the middle, and from there the rest of the buildings scattered around it throughout the property. “She could be anywhere.”

  “What are we going to do when we find her?”

  Tom’s question was valid and Keith wasn’t sure how to answer it. He didn’t really have a plan. “If the guy is reasonable at all, he’ll take the money and let her go. You have the money on you, right?”

  “Shit,” Tom replied. “I left it in the truck. I’ll go back and get it.”

  “Be sure to come back.” Trust was a two way street, and Keith wasn’t sure that he trusted Tom anymore. How many other secrets did the man have hidden?

  “Of course I will. You don’t think that I’d run off on you, do you?” Tom sounded hurt by Keith’s suggestion. “I wouldn’t do that to you or to Jayne.” Tom stood fast in front of him. “I’ve made mistakes, Lord knows I have. But I wouldn’t leave you here to take care of this on your own. The money isn’t that important to me to put someone else’s life in jeopardy.”

  “I know. Just get the money. We don’t have to time to get into all of that.” Tom was ticking him off. He watched as Tom walked out of his sight back in the direction of the truck.

  Keith waited patiently for Tom to return and when he did with the package containing the money in his hand they continued on their search. “Listen for anything out of the ordinary,” Keith directed. “She’s here somewhere.”

  Chapter Thirteen

  The cabins were numbered, and wading through the tall grass, Keith entered each with caution, finding nothing. But the note had said that Jayne would be here unless the asshole who kidnapped her was keeping her at another location.

  “Do you see that?” asked Tom. He pointed ahead of him down towards what once was a pond, but now looked more like a marsh. “That cabin down there. That’s a light.”

  Tom was right. It was indeed a light shining through a window. “I’ll be damned,” Keith said. The adrenaline cut in. This was it. He reached for his gun and flicked off the safety. “Stay behind me and don’t do anything unless I tell you to,” he ordered.

  They advanced across the clearing down towards the pond, minding each step they took. Keith’s heart felt like it was going to burst out of his chest as he peered into the window where the light had been coming from. She was there. Jayne was there on the floor tied up! He listened as she spoke.

  “How long are you going to keep me tied up? My wrists and ankles hurt. I can hardly feel either of them. You need to loosen the ropes.”

  “Nice try, but I don’t think so, lady.” The man moved close to Jayne and squatted down to her level. “Tell me, do you write those dirty books from experience?” He reached down and touched Jayne’s hair. “I bet you’re a real wild one.”

  Keith was ready to explode. That fuckwad had no right to lay his grimy hands on Jayne. He wanted to bolt through that door and wrap his hands around that bastard’s neck. He felt his finger on the trigger of the gun as he poised it high in front of him through the broken window. One clean shot was all he needed to take him down. There wasn’t any other way to go about this, and he realized it now.

  “What are you doing?” whispered Tom. “Is that the plan?”

  “Shut up,” Keith barked. He’d said those two words a little too loud. The man looked up quickly and before Keith had a chance to do anything a bullet whizzed past his head. Keith ducked down by the side of the cabin. He grabbed Tom by the arm. “Get down.”

  “Hello, boys,” shouted the man. He laughed heartily. “I wasn’t expecting you to show up so soon.”

  “Keith?” yelled Jayne. “Tom?”

  “We’re here,” Keith replied. “And we’re not going to leave without you. Are you okay? Did he hurt you?”

  “I think I’m fine.”

  He glanced at Tom. “She’s not hurt.”

  “Enough with the pleasantries,” said the man. “Toss the money in through the window. That’s what I’m here for. Not too smart, are ya, buddy, to screw with the Leone brothers. Did you think they wouldn’t come after you?”

  “Never mind any of that. Release her. Let her go and you can have the damned money,” Keith said.

  “It doesn’t go like that. I’m the one here with the fucking power. You do as I say and not the other way around. Got it? I’ll blow the bitch away if you try anything sneaky.”

  Keith didn’t doubt the man’s words. “The money, Tom.”

  “What if he doesn’t hold up his end of the bargain?” Tom asked.

  Keith shook his head. “It’s all we can do. He’ll kill her.”

  “I’m waiting. The money or she gets it,” yelled the man. “I’m not kidding here, boys.”

  “Give it to him,” Jayne said, her voice quivering. “Give him what he wants and get me the hell out of here.”

  “You’ll not harm her?” asked Keith, looking for reassurance. “You’ll let her go?”

  “Sure thing. Give me the money and she lives.”

  Keith took the package from Tom and tossed it in through the window. It landed on the floor with a thud. “That’s it…take it.”

  “There’s a little more to it than that.”

  Both Keith and Tom looked sideways to see the man standing before them outside with his gun pointed directly at them. “What the fuck? You have the money. What else do you want?” Keith backed up two steps with his gun in his hand and bumped into Tom who now stood behind him.

  “I have to kill him. Step aside and it’s done and over with. You get the girl. I get my man and the money.”

  “That’s wasn’t in the deal,” Keith explained.

  “Why would you want to protect him anyway? He’s nothing more than a thief and a liar.” The man looked amused as he spoke. “The Leones want him dead. I’m not leaving until the job is done. I’ll go through you if I have to.”

  Keith felt Tom’s hand on his shoulder. “Take Jayne and go. Neither of you deserve what I’ve put you through.”

  “This is a waste of time. Fuck it, I’ll kill you both and the girl,” spat the man. He lifted his gun higher and pressed the trigger.

  Keith had seen the man’s hand move first. He knew that this wasn’t going to end well. In a flash he fired the gun and dropped to the ground, pulling Tom down with him as the man’s gun shot up in the air as a bullet ripped through his chest.

  “Oh my god! Keith? Tom?” yelled Jayne from inside the cabin. “Help?” she screamed.

  ****

  “What happened?” Jayne asked as Tom freed her from her restraints. She was extremely shaken. It took some help to get her to a standing position. She ached all over from head to toe. “Is he gone?”

  “He’s dead. I killed him,” Keith answered. “I didn’t have a choice.”

  “We’ll call the police and explain what happened,” Jayne replied. “They’ll take care of it.”

  That was the last thing Tom needed to deal with. The police most certainly would not understand, and he was likely to end up in jail. He wasn’t going to jail. Not in this lifetime.

  “No police.” Keith tucked the gun back into the waist of his jeans. “Get the money, Tom. We have to get out of here pronto.”

 
“But…” Jayne continued.

  “But nothing. There are things you don’t know about. When we get back to my place we’ll fill you in on everything, and I think it’s best that it comes directly from Tom.”

  “What about him?” Tom asked.

  “We’ll leave him here. It may be months before anyone finds him.” Keith started to walk out of the cabin. “It’s late…I’m tired, and I want to go home.”

  ****

  Jayne stood in Keith’s kitchen with a cup of coffee firmly planted in her hand as she listened to Tom as he told his story. Her initial reaction was to freak out at him and demand that he never come near her again. She didn’t do any such thing of course. She considered him a friend and possibly a little more. “I don’t know what to say. I mean, we make mistakes and some are bigger than others.” This was her way of justifying what had gone on earlier that night.

  “I’m going to leave Pine Bluff,” Tom said. “I think it’s best.”

  “None of us are doing anything yet,” Keith interrupted. “No one knows anything about tonight other than the three of us. If you rocket out of town it might make people suspicious.”

  “I have to head back to the city anyway. The book’s almost completed, and my time here is coming to an end,” Jayne explained. “That was the reason I came up here, and my work is practically done.”

  Jayne placed her empty cup on the kitchen countertop. Things were coming to an end. She felt half-crazy considering what she’d been put through. “Keith, would you take me home?”

  “Sure,” he replied.

  “And would you both stay with me tonight? I can’t fathom being alone.”

  Both men nodded.

  Chapter Fourteen

  The hot steam from the shower only helped to heighten Jayne’s senses as she felt her body being pressed between Keith and Tom. When she’d asked them to stay the night with her, secretly she hoped to find herself in bed with them again. She felt safe with them and secure. They’d saved her and even though it had been Tom who had brought this upon her and Keith, she’d found it in her heart to forgive him.

  Jayne pushed back against Tom’s cock as she felt his hardness press between her buttocks. With him massaging her shoulders under the spray from the shower and Keith kissing her as he slid his hand down between her legs, she felt like she was taken to another world.

  “Oh, god,” she cried out as she felt Tom enter her from behind. She bent over slightly as Keith now held her in his arms as she leaned into his strong chest. She was thankful for keeping a supply of condoms nearby because even when it came to shower sex, she played it safe. “Fuck me,” she murmured. “Fuck me deep.” Her clit was on fire, and she couldn’t resist reaching down to stroke it.

  “Let me.” Keith dropped to his knees in front of her. He spread her legs enough to allow him access to her pussy as Tom fucked her in a slow rhythmic motion. Jayne quivered as his tongue lapped at her clit, replacing her fingers. The combination of his tongue action along with Tom’s cock sliding in and out of her was too much for her to handle as she felt her knees quake as her first orgasm ripped through her. “That’s it,” Keith urged. “Let go and enjoy it, baby.”

  She did.

  ****

  Keith stood at the end of Jayne’s bed stroking his thick cock. He’d already positioned her so that her ass stuck up in the air as she bent over the edge of the mattress looking back at him with a coy look in her eyes. Tom had already fucked her wet pussy, and he intended to do the same. Fucking Tom was also an idea. Hell, he’d have them both!

  Jayne wiggled her ass slightly. His cock throbbed harder as he reached out and grabbed one of her ass cheeks. He liked a woman with an ample ass. He liked his women with meat on their bones. He was reminded again of how curvy Jayne was. She had tits that begged to be fondled, and he grinned as he spotted Tom doing just that as he positioned his cock, aiming at Jayne’s mouth.

  Keith moaned as he eased into Jayne’s pussy. She gripped him tight as he pushed deeper, her moans stifled by Tom’s cock as she sucked him. Keith knew how to please her. He wanted to make her come as she milked his cock with her wet cunt. “That’s it, push back on my cock,” he said. He closed his eyes and pulled back a little before pushing in until he was balls deep inside her. Her hotness engulfed him. This was where he wanted to be…inside her.

  The three of them glided along together in one fluid motion. Keith locked eyes with Tom as he reached forward, lowering his right hand between Jayne’s legs to toy with her clit. She rocked her hips a little, reacting to his pleasurable touch. It was obvious that he was achieving what he’d set out to. She groaned louder, and he felt her pussy clench around his cock as she came. Coming so close to death with a gun practically shoved in his face by a madman, Keith felt more alive than ever before. Every one of his senses felt as if it had been set on fire. His cock ached and throbbed as he sped up, plunging in and out of Jayne. “Come inside me,” she begged, pulling away from Tom’s cock. “I love it. Fuck my pussy nice and hard.”

  How could he not? Hearing Jayne’s demanding him to do what he loved to do to her caused his balls to draw up. He tossed his head back and looked at the ceiling as he released inside of her.

  ****

  Tom watched eagerly as Keith filled Jayne’s pussy. When Keith pulled out of her, he guided Jayne onto her back and spread her legs wide. He spread her pussy lips with two fingers and with his other hand manipulated her clit. She’d come once already, but he was going to get her off a second time.

  “Whatever you’re doing keep it up,” Jayne said. Her tits heaved with every breath she took in. Tom looked up to see her biting down on her bottom lip as she played with her nipples, squeezing them.

  He slid one finger inside her and then another before he followed it with a third. He withdrew his fingers from her and licked them up and down. He lowered his head to replace his fingers. He ran his tongue up and down her slick folds and then paused as he massaged her hard clit.

  Jayne held his head in place with both hands. She rocked her hips and pushed her pussy, smashing it against his face. “Eat my pussy,” she begged. “Lick me. Tongue fuck me, Tom!”

  There was something intoxicating knowing that Keith had just fucked and laid his seed where he was now. It was a shared intimacy of sorts. Tom reached down to jack his cock. When he felt a hand brush his away, he smiled. Keith.

  ****

  This was crazy…in fact, it was totally insane, but Jayne didn’t want it to end. Sex with these two guys was the best, and she loved how they catered to getting her off. And Tom. What he was doing to her now left her totally breathless…almost.

  Jayne ran her fingers through Tom’s hair as she rode his hot and uber talented tongue. Her pussy ached and her clit throbbed as he played with her. It also didn’t go unnoticed to her that Keith was sucking on Tom’s cock. Watching them together was totally scorching. She liked to see them together, and it thrilled her even further to be part of it. She closed her eyes as she felt orgasm number two take over. This was a night she wouldn’t soon forget many reasons.

  ****

  It wasn’t long after the sun had risen that Keith was the first to awaken. He slipped out of bed, doing his best to not wake Tom and Jayne. It had been an unusual night for all three of them. Things were getting complicated between them, and he wondered how the lines of friendship were being blurred. There was something inside of him that had been stirred. He cared about both of them. That was evident, as he would have taken a bullet for them. Luckily the events of the previous evening had played out differently in their favor. There was still the matter of the dead man up at the abandoned camp. Whenever someone found him, and it would happen eventually, the police would become involved and there would be an investigation. He didn’t think anything could be traced back to them. It was unlikely that the Leone brothers would say anything. After all they’d been the ones who hired the guy in the first place. With their unscrupulous activities, it was Keith’s guess that they’d
want nothing to do with the law even when it came to getting their money back. That was something that needed to be discussed with Tom. Just because that guy that the Leones had sent to Pine Bluff was dead didn’t mean that the Leones wouldn’t try to recover their money. He’d have to speak to Tom about that.

  By the time Tom and Jayne joined him, Keith had managed to cook breakfast for all three of them. After they’d finished, it would be the perfect time for him to bring up the previous night’s events and how they were all going to move on from that.

  ****

  “I’m heading back to the city tomorrow,” Jayne said. She lifted her mug and sipped her coffee. “I think it’s best given everything that’s happened.” A chill ran through her as she envisioned the man who had kidnapped her lying dead in the woods. No matter what he’d done to her, she hated the thought of killing anyone. She may not have pulled the trigger, but she was just as involved as Tom and Keith. They shared this between them. It was their secret. “I’ll finish my book when I get back. There’s very little left to write.”

  “I think we need to talk about what happened,” Keith added. “A man is dead. There’s nothing we can do about that. It was either him or us. I think we can all agree on that.”

  Jayne nodded and so did Tom.

  “We have to put this behind us. Tom, I think you should send the money back to where it came from,” Keith suggested. “If you keep it, those guys will never give you any peace. I’m pretty sure they won’t give a fuck about the dead guy, but they won’t stop until they get that money back.”

  “I’ve already decided that would be the best thing to do. I shouldn’t have taken it to start with,” Tom agreed. “I can stress how stupid it was of me to do that.”

  “I’m glad that much is settled.” Keith walked to the kitchen sink and placed his dirty dishes in it. “It’ll be a fresh start for you. That’s a good thing.”

  “Maybe you two should come back with me?” Jayne tossed the idea out there for the others to ponder. Putting distance between them all and Pine Bluff seemed like a good idea. She would head back on her own first, and they could come down to the city a couple days after so it wouldn’t arouse any suspicions. “There isn’t any need to give me an answer right away. Keith, you have my number.”
