Dillon: A Wings of Diablo MC Novel by Lake, B. (rosie project txt) 📕

Wire, you move fast and the loyalty that you have with all these different groups of people is inspiring to say the least."

I look behind me for a second to see the rest of the guys that had decided to fly back with me waiting in the doorway. Watching my back and supporting me in every way that they could.

"Yeah, my family is good to me. What about Keeley? Any word?"

"The doctor says she could wake up at any time. Her brain activity has picked up and the swelling has gone down significantly, but there is no timetable."

I nod my head before walking out of the waiting room and into my woman’s room. There are less tubes now and the one that was in her mouth is gone. Her lips are chapped, but at least I am able to feel her lips against mine. I kiss her softly and silently pray for her eyes to open. Of course they don’t, but I still have hope.

"Hey princess, you wouldn’t believe it if you saw it. They all came out for me. I'd thought that I needed to prove to them that I was still the man that they all could depend on when they never stopped depending on me. I got our baby back, Lily is fine. She’s a little shaken up, but our girl is so strong." I swipe some of her hair behind her ear. Keeley is so beautiful and even if she isn’t speaking, I can imagine what she would be saying.

I hear movement behind me and sure enough, Lily and Marko have taken a seat and are looking at me. Lily smiles big at me.

"What are you laughing at little girl?" I joke with her.

"You said I was strong." She says proudly.

"You’re stronger than anyone I’ve ever met other than your mom." I move over to her and pluck her out of Marko’s lap. I spin her around once before I cradle her like a small child. "But not strong enough to get away from my tickles." I start tickling her. She laughs and tries to pull away, her body bucking and twisting in my grasp.

"Lily?" A soft cracking voice stops me from spinning my baby around. When I look over my shoulder, Keeley’s head is slowly moving from side to side, but her eyes aren’t open yet. I put Lily down and run to Keeley’s bedside.

"Key, you with me babe? Keeley?" I caress her face not wanting to jar her more than I have to.

Her eyes flutter for a second before piercing gold eyes focus on me.

"Dillon?"

I press my head down to hers, there is nothing that I can do to stop the tears pooling in my eyes. I knew she would come back to me. There was never another fucking option. Either she would come back to me in life or I would follow her in death. Our love is just that damn strong.

Keeley

Everything hurts. My eyes refuse to open, but even through my closed lids I can see the sun blaring in the room. I take a deep breath, but my ribs protest the movement. I force myself to go back to sleep. Just a little more and I’ll be okay to wake up.

A loud tinkling giggle floats into my mind.

Oh … my Lily. Anger and fear consume me in that instant. The last time I had heard Lily she was crying and screaming out for me in pain. They took my babies. The bastards had forced their way into my home and stole her from me.

Another giggle reaches my ear and now I’m even more confused. Am I dead? Am I stuck in a dream? She’s not here. I know she isn’t so how can I be hearing her laughter. I will my eyes to open, but it feels like a two-ton weight is sitting on top of my body. I lift my fingers slowly and one by one I feel them lift up. My fingertips graze over a starchy material—sheets.

When I hear Lily laugh again, I feel my head turn in the direction of the sound.

"Lily?" I can’ t recognize my own voice, but realize that the sound of Lily laughing is gone.

I can feel my heart galloping in my chest. Maybe it is all a dream or I’m hallucinating and when I call her out, she goes away. I’ll stay quiet if it means that I can keep hearing her.

Large rough hands touch my face, but they feel different from the men that were touching me before. These hands feel like they have worked every day of their lives, but they are still gentle and safe.

"Key, you with me babe? Keeley?"

Dillon, oh my love. If my soul could fly free and entwine with his right now, I would let it. I love this man; he accepts me with all he has, and I feel the same for him. I thought that I wouldn’t be able to forgive him after all he had done back at the clubhouse, but I realize now that I was just scared. Scared that he would change into a man that I didn’t know and stop loving me the way he once did, but it only took one fall on his ass to get him back on the right path. I can say for sure that this man loves me just the same as he always has. Dillon is my entire world and I’m so happy to hear his voice.

Again, I try to open my eyes, but this time when I do I feel them opening. I blink furiously trying to get my eyes to adjust and once they do the first thing I see is the dark eyes of my love. His beard is almost fully grown in, with bruises and cuts on his face, hair too long and a mess, but he’s here with me.

"Dillon."

He presses his head down to mine, and I can feel the relief and
