Shade's Fall
Page 63

Lily swallowed. She really didn’t want to know. “Do you use what’s in the bag?”
“Occasionally. Not since I’ve been in your bed, though.”
“As long as it stays that way, I don’t need to know what’s in the bag,” Lily said stiffly.
“Lily, occasionally I’m going to want to smoke a little. It’s legal in Colorado now,” Shade said with a twisted smile.
“When it’s legal in Kentucky, we’ll talk about it,” Lily said huffily.
“Hell will freeze over before pot becomes legal in Kentucky. There are some counties that still aren’t allowed to sell alcohol.”
“Well, I guess you’ve got a long wait,” Lily teased, running up the steps. Shade laughed, running up behind her.
Lily opened the door, going inside where several members were already standing around with beer or a glass of liquor. Lily went upstairs, watching as Shade tossed his bag to Cash.
Lily smiled down at Shade as he started up the steps. “Are you sure you don’t want to stay down there?” Lily teased, leaning over the rail.
“Oh, I think I know exactly what I want right now,” Shade teased her back.
Lily skipped down the hallway to their bedroom door. She saw the bedroom across from hers had the door open. Raci was bent over the side of the bed while Train powered inside her with his cock. He had her breasts in his hands and was pinching her nipples until her breasts stood out from her chest. Her face was filled with ecstasy as Train kept pounding into her from behind. Raci then reached between her thighs, moving her hand back and forth.
Lily turned away, embarrassed at herself for watching even for a second when a few short weeks ago she would have been hysterical at the sight of them having sex.
Shade’s arm went around her waist, studying her face. She tried to hide by turning away.
“Don’t be embarrassed. They left the door open so that if anyone wants to watch, they can.”
“I don’t want to watch.” Lily broke away, opening the bedroom door and going in with Shade right behind her.
“Are you sure? You seemed pretty interested.” Shade’s amusement was obvious.
“I’m sure,” Lily said, taking off her shoes. “Leave me alone. I need to get changed and eat my dinner before the downstairs turns into the bedroom across the hall.”
Shade held his hands up in the air before throwing himself down onto the couch.
Lily showered quickly, pulling on a soft pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt and then pulled her up into a ponytail.
“Ready?” Lily asked after putting on her shoes.
“Yes.” Shade got to his feet, following her to the door.
Lily opened the door a small amount, peeking out.
“What are you doing?”
“Making sure they’re finished. How long does it take?” she asked, looking back at him.
“Are you asking me how long it takes Train to fuck? How the hell should I know?”
“Shh… they’ll hear you,” Lily snapped.
“Move and I’ll look. The way you’re going, all the food will be gone and Rider will be fucking Evie on the table.” Lily moved aside, letting Shade open the door.
He opened it wider. “The coast is clear,” he said mockingly.
She cast him a worried glance. “Shade, they really don’t have sex on the tables, do they?”
 
 
Chapter 28
 
Lily ate her dinner while Shade watched her, laughing at her silently. Over the last few years she had known Shade, she hadn’t realized he had a sense of humor; a warped one, but he still had one.
Lily helped Beth and Winter with the dishes, trying not to blush when Viper walked into the room and threw Winter over his shoulder, leaving with her yelling at him to put her down. She winced in sympathy when she heard a loud whack from the other side of the door.
Beth took the dish from Lily, placing it in the dishwasher. “You doing okay with everything?”
“Yes.” From the hesitant expression on Beth’s face, she knew what subject she was referring to.
“Lily…”
“Not tonight,” Lily said hastily.
Beth sighed. “All right. On a brighter note, the bathroom is finally done and they laid the carpet, so Razer and I are going to spend the night in our new home.”
“I know. Jewell told me they delivered the carpet today.”
Lily dried her hands before going to the refrigerator. Opening the door, she reached inside and took out a bucket of Champagne on ice with a ribbon tied around the bottle. Turning, she handed it to Beth. “I wish you many years of happiness, sister.”
Beth took the Champagne bucket, her eyes watering. “Lily, I couldn’t have asked for a better sister. I love you.”
“I love you, too.” The women hugged.
Razer got up from the table, throwing down the cards he had been dealt. “Ready? I’m done with these card sharks. If I don’t leave now, Cash will be riding my bike tomorrow.”
He walked to Lily, pulling her close for a hug. “Thanks for the booze, lil’ sis. Thanks for the green, Shade. We’ll see you guys Sunday.” He grabbed a squealing Beth into his arms and Lily rushed to open the side kitchen door for them.
“You’re joking about the green, right?”
Razer winked on his way out the door.
Lily shut the door behind them, throwing the dishcloth at Shade.
He caught it midair. “What did I do now? Did I say anything about you giving booze to your sister?” Before she could say anything, he added, “I know, I know. It’s legal.”
Lily went toward the living room, taking a few steps forward before she realized she hadn’t escaped upstairs early enough and now the party was in full swing.
“I don’t think that’s legal,” Shade said from behind her as they watched Jewell giving Rider a blowjob while Train was sitting behind her, smacking her on her bare bottom.
Lily walked sedately to the steps, determined not to run. She almost made it through the crowded room before two stunning blondes, one short and petite and the other long and leggy, descended on Shade with smiles of welcome.
“We’ve been looking for you. Jewell said the kitchen was off-limits, and your room. What’s up? We’ve missed you, Shade. Hook us up with a room and give that flogger of yours a workout. The last marks you put on us are gone, we need a refresher.”
Lily didn’t think the woman would ever shut up, each sentence more damning than the last.
Lily’s fantasies, which had been burgeoning, withered and died.
“You can have the third bedroom on the left; no one is using it anymore.” Lily spun on her feet, heading back toward the kitchen. Shade caught her within a few steps, lifting her up into his arms, and then carried her struggling body back to the steps.
“Shade?” one of the blondes tried again.
“Cash!” Shade snapped.
“I’ll take care of it.” Cash ushered the women away from Shade, giving him room to pack Lily up the stairs.
Lily tried to get away as soon as they were away from the steps. When she saw she wasn’t going to get away, she froze in his arms. As soon as the door closed behind them, he set her down on her feet. Lily hurriedly moved away from him.
