Honesty

He was the epitome of the bad boy rock star that all the tabloids painted him to be, and even though I’d only been with the band a little over twenty-four hours, I could see that the stories were accurate. He was tall with dark hair styled into his signature faux hawk, muscular arms, and broad shoulders and he was covered in tattoos that I would have loved to trace with my tongue. He was every girl’s dream and I couldn’t keep my eyes off of him. Every time I looked his way, he was checking me out. I’d had a crush on him ever since he joined my brother's band over a year ago. He looked even better now. Anytime I had been around him, which hadn’t been often, he'd always treated me like a kid, but the look he had been giving me this time was anything but; it was the hungry look of a man who knew what he wanted and would take it. I meant what I said earlier about showing him a few things.

I knew my brother would like to think that I'm innocent and naive to what goes on when they're on tour, but I'm not. It's about time that he stopped treating me like a child. I tried to honor my mom's dying wishes of graduating from college, but quickly figured out that it just wasn’t for me. I’d kept the real me locked inside for so long and I was sick of it. It was time I start living my life on my terms. Tonight was the night I would unleash the real me. Screw Jinx, if he couldn’t handle it. My big brother would just have to find a way to get over it.

I purposefully tucked myself away on the side of the stage where Linc played his bass. He was the only show that I was interested in that night. When they took the stage, the roar of the crowd was almost deafening. Dirty Affliction had been at the top of the charts for months now and every show was sold out for months to come. It didn’t take long for me to lose myself in the music. My body began to sway and my hips moved to the beat that Jinx pounded out against his skins. The deep growl of Linc's bass ricocheted through my body causing every nerve ending to come alive. My eyes stayed focused on Linc and the way his fingers dug into his bass and a deep erotic sound filled the venue. His eyes never left mine as he caressed his guitar, much like he would a lover. I couldn’t help but think of those fingers caressing me. Would they be soft or calloused from years of playing guitar? Would his grip be gentle or firm and possessive? I licked my bottom lip slowly before pulling it between my teeth and biting down. My hands slowly move down my sides and across my stomach in a slow, torturous movement. I threw my head back and lost myself in the deep growl of his bass guitar, the blood thundering through my body was almost dizzying. His honey colored eyes bore into mine as if he was reading all my dirty thoughts and a crooked grin appeared on his handsome face. I could feel my body heat under his intense gaze leaving a hot trail behind like the lick of a flame. He took a step forward and jumped up on top of the large black amplifier at the side of the stage and played to the crowd. The stage lights glistened over his body and made him look almost angelic. I took this opportunity to truly look at his tall frame and the way the muscles moved and gathered beneath the snug fitting fabric of his t-shirt. The way the corded muscles in his arm strained as his long fingers caressed the body of his guitar.

I sneaked a look at the crowd from behind the black curtain. There were so many women crowding the front of the stage and I was suddenly thankful to be in my little corner, hidden away. Most of the women were wearing next to nothing, while others flashed their tits. Some had even thrown their bras up onto the stage.

I took a step out from behind the curtain so that I had a good view of the guys on the stage. Levi was singing his heart out while all the girls swooned and sang along with his silky voice. He was a handsome guy with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was tall and lean, where Linc was all muscle. He looked like he belonged on a surf board, not rocking out on the stage, but boy, he could sing. The women were practically throwing themselves at him. Chance was on the opposite side of the stage, playing his guitar. He was shorter than the other guys, but his green Mohawk made up for the height difference. He was covered in tattoos, his lower lip and eyebrow were pierced, and he had black plugs in his ears. It was then that I noticed he had a pink bra hanging from the neck of his guitar. My brother, Jinx, was behind the band, playing the drums. His dark hair drenched with sweat and he had already stripped himself of his shirt. He had some tattoos, but not as many as Chance and Linc. He had no piercings that I knew of.

Eew! I did not just think that about my brother.

When the last song was over, I made my way through the crowd of people backstage, toward the dressing room, when suddenly someone grabbed my arm and pulled me into a dark room along the hall. I gasped, trying to get away and then I felt his warm breath against my neck and ear.

"You're playing with fire baby." I knew that deep voice anywhere. The deep rasp vibrated through my body and sent a surge of heat straight to my already pulsing core, and the smell of his sweat and cologne was almost intoxicating.

"Linc," I whispered, so soft that I wasn’t sure he heard me.

"I enjoyed that little private dance tonight. As a matter of fact, I enjoyed it so much that I'm still hard from watching you touch yourself," he said, pressing his cock against my ass. "We're all going out tonight and you're coming with us," he said, in a way that suggested it was not a request.

I nodded in agreement. There was no other place that I would rather be. If he would be there, then so would I. I knew I was playing with fire, but for once in my life, I was willing to get burned. My heart skipped a beat when he trailed his nose down the side of my neck and kissed the sensitive spot just beneath my ear. He pulled the door open; light from the hallway spilling into the room. His golden brown eyes were full of lust and promises of things to come. I felt a tingle down my spine as he placed his warm hand at the small of my back and ushered me out into the hall.

"I'm going to shower and then I'll stop by your room so we can go to the club together."

When I nodded in agreement, he turned and walked in the direction of the hotel. I pushed open the door to the dressing room where I found a mass of women lined up against the wall. I shuddered when I thought about how the same thing happened after every performance. There were so many women, ready and waiting to throw themselves at the guys in hopes that they would be the one that he would take back to his room for the night. What really turned my stomach was that, not only was my brother in this room, but under different circumstances, Linc would be in here too.

I headed back to my hotel room, where I changed into a pair of black, tight fitting jeans and a pink version of the Dirty Affliction t-shirt. I ran a brush through my hair and was just putting a fresh layer of pink gloss on my lips when I heard a knock at the door. My stomach felt like a million butterflies had taken flight as I prepared myself for what was waiting on the other side of the door. I opened the door and my heart momentarily stopped as I took in the man standing in front of me. Linc was freshly showered, his brown hair still damp. He was wearing a pair of faded jeans with a few strategically placed holes in them that gave me a glimpse of his tanned skin beneath. He was wearing a simple white t-shirt that looked like a million bucks on him. I could see every outline, every curve and dip of his muscled chest and shoulders. He wrapped his hands around my upper arms and pushed me into the room, kicking the door closed behind him. I took a deep breath and looked up at him from beneath my lashes.

"I don't care what your brother has to say, but, we're going to make an appearance at the club. Then, I'm bringing you back here, and you're going to show me all those sexy little moves that I know you've got hidden beneath your pretend innocence, because I've been watching you. I know it's in there just beneath the surface, waiting to be freed. I'm going to show you what it feels like to let go," he said before his mouth crashed down onto mine. He licked along the seam of my lips and I opened willingly to accept him. Our tongues tangled and explored each other's mouths. He pulled away and I immediately missed his lips. He led me out into the hallway, past the other doors, I was thankful that there weren’t any of the other guys in the hallway. We took the elevator down to the ground level. When the doors finally opened, we were met with a group of fans, which all happened to be women.

Imagine that.

A tall, thin blonde walked over to Linc and placed her hand on his bulging bicep.

"It's you!" She beamed.

Hello? Is that honestly the best you've got?

"Yep...it's me," Linc responded with his signature crooked grin that was known for dropping panties all across the U. S. and Canada.

"My name is Tiffany, but you can call me Tiff; all of my friends do." She batted her fake lashes and glanced over at me with a frown on her face. "I've always wanted to meet you." She looked over at me again, then back to Linc. "If you'd like some company tonight, I'm free. I've heard things about you, you know. I'd like the chance to find out if the rumors are true." She told him, giggling.

Good God how pathetic can you be? Linc politely smiled and took a step back, all the while, never removing his hand from my back.

"Well, Tiff as you can see, I'm with someone and we already have plans. It's always nice to meet fans, but if you'll excuse us, we have some place to be." Her mouth fell open, a look of disbelief covering her face. I was pretty sure that if looks could kill, I would have been six feet under. With that, he ushered me out onto the sidewalk into the cool night air. He hailed us a cab and we were on our way to meet the rest of the band.

We arrived at Club Tempo and the line to get in led down the sidewalk, around the corner. Linc laced his fingers with mine, sending warm tingles up my arm and led me toward a roped off section where a large black man stood with his arms crossed over his chest. He leaned in and spoke with the man in a voice too low to hear. The big man gave him a fist bump, stepped aside, and just like that we were inside. The club was beautiful and I could see why the guys wanted to come here. It was a new club that catered to celebrities and others in the entertainment industry. There was a large dance floor on the bottom level with red leather loveseats and tables along the sides and a bar off to the right. The second level was enclosed in a glass wall with VIP seating areas. It didn’t take long to find our guys seated in one of those areas. I didn’t miss the death stare between Jinx and Linc. I was pretty sure that there would be words before the night was over. He needed to just back the fuck off and let me live my life. I knew he loved me and he was only looking out for me, but trying to tell me who I could and couldn’t see just didn’t fly with me.

"Have a seat, baby and I'll get us a drink."

Baby.

I lowered myself onto one of the small sofas and watched him as he walked toward the bar, loving the way his round ass looked in his jeans. I couldn’t help but wonder if it felt as firm as it looked. It was thinking like that, that was going to get me in trouble if I wasn’t careful. Linc returned with a shot of Patron and a beer for each of us and sat alongside me. I could feel the heat from his body against mine and it sent a shiver down my spine and a gush of fluid to my core.

"Thank you," I told him. I lifted the bottle to my lips, taking a sip, welcoming the way the cool liquid felt going down. I loved the way he was watching me. His eyes hadn’t left my lips. "What are you looking at?" I asked him, not because I didn’t know. I was just interested in what he was going to say.

"I was just looking at those luscious lips and imagining what they're going to feel like wrapped around my cock later." I felt myself blush and there was an intense throbbing that was begging for his attention. I wanted him so bad, but there was this little voice in the back of my mind that kept telling me that I was in danger. Danger of having my heart broken. It was no secret that Linc was a man whore. I’d heard my brother tell stories of all the groupies and the fact that two, sometimes three had been seen leaving his hotel room at all hours of the night. I was disgusted with myself, but at the same time I was tired of fighting what my body so desperately wanted. I knew he wanted me too; he had made that clear. I wondered if I would be able to walk away with my heart in one piece. What was I saying? This was Lincoln McKay I was talking about. He'd never be exclusive and I had better decide what I was doing and fast because, he was making promises with his eyes that I desperately wanted him to keep.

"You seem so sure of yourself," I told him, lifting a brow, giving him a smirk.

He grinned and leaned in close to my ear and said, "If there's one thing I'm sure of, it's that you want me just as bad as I want you. If you tell me that I'm wrong, I'll back off now and I won't bother you again." As he said this, he blew his warm breath against my neck and ear. My body reacted to him like no other. I couldn't tell him no, even if I wanted to. He had my body so on-edge just from breathing on me. I couldn’t even imagine what it would feel like to have his hands on my naked body.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing, man?" Jinx scowled, looking down at us. I'd been so wrapped up in my thoughts that I didn't even notice my brother had stepped in front of us. "She's not one of your whores, Linc. I told you to leave her alone," he said, between gritted teeth.

Who does he think he is?

I jumped out of my seat at the same time as Linc, putting myself in between them. I knew where this was going and if I didn’t put a stop to it now, it could end badly. My brother had always been very protective of me.

"Jinx! Stop this right now! I appreciate that you want to protect me, but in case you haven't noticed, I'm a grown woman now. I have the right to make my own decisions. Hell, I have the right to make my own mistakes. I'm asking you to please back off. If you love me, just please back off and let me live my life," I pleaded, while pressing my hand into his chest. He took a step back and pointed his finger in Linc's face, even though I could tell he wanted to hit him. He did it for me.

"If you hurt her, I swear to God Linc, I'll kill you," he said, before storming off with his hands still balled into fists at his sides. I knew my brother well enough to know that this was not over.

That was intense.

Linc

I knew I should have left her alone. She was too good for someone like me. She deserved someone who would love her the way she deserved to be loved. I had a past and it wasn’t pretty. I had a bad reputation with women and it was one that I was not too proud of. However, the damage was done, and there was nothing I could do to change that. Just being close to her makes me higher than any amount of alcohol or any drug ever could, and believe me, I'd had my share.

"Let's get out of here." I wrapped my arm around her and pulled her close to my side. When her warm body melted into mine, I knew that I couldn’t do this to her. I couldn’t use her and then walk away. I didn’t do relationships, but I was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to walk away. I’d never been that kind of guy, and I never would be. She deserved more than the womanizing, coked out, alcoholic that I'd become. I knew it would best to walk away before we even get started. I couldn’t hurt her like that.

When we arrived back at the hotel, we rode the elevator in silence up to the fifth floor. She pulled her room key from her back pocket and slid it into the slot in the door. She looked up at me with big green eyes, a sexy smile on her face, and it took everything within me not to follow her into the room.

"I’d better go," I told her. I watched the smile slip from her face as she looked at me with confusion in her striking green eyes.

"But... I thought you were coming in?" She replied, her brows pinched together.

"Sweetheart, your brother is right, I'm no good for you. You yourself, know that. I'm sure you've read the tabloids. I have a reputation with women and that's never going to change. You deserve something better than I can offer you," I told her, feeling like kicking my own ass. Her lips curled at the corners and then into a full, beautiful smile.

"Linc, I'm not asking you to marry me; I'm just asking you to fuck me," she said, wrapping her arms around my waist, pressing her tits into my chest. I could feel her hard nipples through the thin fabric of her shirt.

Damn. I'm hard.

The angel on my shoulder was telling me to walk away, leave her alone, but the devil in my pants was telling me to take what she was offering.

Damn. The devil wins every time.

Our bodies collided and the urgency to be inside her took over. I took her mouth in a desperate kiss, demanding entrance and taking what I wanted. Our tongues tangled in a mating dance all on their own. I could tell she needed this as much as I did when she grabbed the hem of my t-shirt and pulled it over my head, tossing it to the floor, at our feet. Her hands moved to the top of my jeans where she desperately fumbled with the button. I scooped her up in my arms and tossed her onto the bed, causing her to squeal when she bounced. I wasted no time in stripping her out of her clothes. She looked up at me through her dark lashes as I unbuttoned my jeans and kicked them to the side. I crawled onto the bed, settling between her creamy thighs. She laced her fingers into my hair and tugged hard, trying to pull me closer to her. I took one of her pink nipples in my mouth and flicked the hard pebble with my tongue. Her heavy breathing and the sweet sound of her moans floated through the air like the lyrics of a love song.

"Fuck me, Linc. Fuck me hard," she pleaded with shaky breath before pulling my bottom lip between her teeth and biting down. I let my fingers trace the curve of her shoulder and down her arm, then along her hip before dipping between her creamy thighs.

"Your body is so responsive to me, baby." Pressing my body against hers, she inhaled deeply and began to squirm beneath me. I would like to have gone slow, take my time and make love to her like she deserved, but she asked for it hard and that worked for me. Pressing my stiff cock at her entrance, I rubbed my piercing against her clit, causing her hips to lift from the mattress. "You like that, don't you, baby," I teased, while continuing to coat my dick with her juices.

"Linc, stop teasing me and fuck me already!" She sounded as desperate as I felt. With that thought, I positioned myself at her entrance and thrust forward, entering her balls deep in one motion, causing her to moan loudly.

"Mmm."

"You feel like fucking heaven," I told her, while looking into her beautiful green eyes. I didn’t move for a moment because I knew if I did, I’d blow my load and it would all be over before we actually got started. She felt so damn good. I lifted up on my knees, gripping her thighs in my hands, and pulled her closer to me. She moaned beneath me as I began a constant rhythm, moving in and out of her in deep, hard thrusts. "Does that feel good baby? Is that what you wanted? You want me deep inside you?" My apa piercing and Jacob’s ladder made sex so much better for the both of us. Looking at the pleasure on her face made me even happier that I decided to get my junk pierced.

"Mmhmm," she moaned while lifting her hips with each thrust. I lifted her hips from the mattress allowing me to thrust deeper into her snug, little pussy. I placed my hand over her mound, my thumb against her swollen nub, and I began to rub her throbbing clit in slow, torturous circles. She gripped the sheet in her hands and rolled her head to the side. I could tell she was getting close by the way her body tensed beneath mine. That was good because I could already feel the pressure building at the base of my spine. I could feel her internal muscles gripping me tight like a fist.

"Don't hold back on me, kitten. Let me hear you when you come apart." Her lust-filled eyes met mine as her body began to tremble beneath me as her muscles clamp down hard on my cock.

"Linc!" She screamed, providing the final push that I needed. We shattered together. My body collapsed on top of hers and we lay like that for a moment, gasping for air as our bodies slowly recovered from our orgasm. I tucked a damp strand of hair behind her ear. She looked beautiful, laid out before me with her flushed skin and swollen lips from our kissing. Her silky brown hair fanned out over the pillow. The memory of what she looked like when she fell apart around me would forever be etched into my brain.

Fucking beautiful.

The cold hard reality of what we’d just done slapped me in the face. Not only did I not use a condom, but now that I’d had a taste of her, I wasn’t sure that I could stay away. Jinx was going to kick my ass and I deserved it. She deserved so much better than what I could give her. She deserved someone who would devote themselves to her and be faithful. We all knew that I was none of those things and never would be. I would never tie myself down that way. I was a sick son of a bitch and I should have just stayed away from her.

"I'm going to use the restroom. I'll be right back," I told her as I kissed her temple before pushing myself off the bed and disappearing into the bathroom. When I walked back into the room, she had already crawled beneath the covers and was fast asleep.

Perfect. Call me an ass if you want; I've been called worse, but this was me. It was what I did. I quickly dressed while trying to be as quiet as possible as I eased out the door and closed it behind me.
