The Damsel and the Outlaw (MisaLaVan&Bigbadvoodoodaddy)

"I'm not sure what's going to happen to Razor he has betrayed the trust of this club twice by disobeying direct orders from the hierarchy that rules this club," Markus said honestly as he looked at Ella honestly as she looked up at him with those beautiful eyes. "But Razor should be the least of your worries my dear. Your stomach is informing you that you need food and this is one time I must insist on you getting food" slowly he stood walking to the door seeing that Tiny was still stationed protectively outside the door but at a distance as not to bother or eavesdrop on the conversation Markus was having with Ella. As the door swung open Markus grinned "Ah, a member of the Goon squad" he said in a teasing manner "If you'd like to be of some assistance why don't you go retrieve some food for the Ella and I to eat. When you bring it back put it on the floor and knock to let me know you've done as I asked" Markus said softly before shutting the door to make his way back over the bed. "My beautiful little girlfriend... Meine Engel, Meine Liebe, Meine Herz und Meine Seele (My angel, my love, my heart and my soul)" he said stroking her face softly "We must get you out of this funk you're in so that you can get better... But know that I am here for you in any compacity that you need."
 
Ella blushed deeply when Markus spoke of her needing food. The truth was she didnt feel the need to eat. Sure she was hungry, but she didnt want to eat. Even with Markus here she wanted to hide, to just sink into the floor and never come back. She watched him head to the door and wasnt shocked when he spoke to someone. She knew someone was always outside her door. She wasnt sure if it was to keep her locked up or to keep her safe. Once more Markus joined on her the bed. He spoke to her in german and she picked up on a few words. She tried her best but her german wasnt that good. She blushed deeply and looked down at her hands. "I am sorry I ran." She wasnt sure if she had said it yet. She looked around the room and in that moment she missed Theo. She looked at Markus shyly. "Do you rhink Razor will forgive me for getting his horse shot?"
 
Markus smiled as he came back sitting on the bed, his hand lightly placed on her knee as he stared up at her, taking in the beauty that was Ella Hoffman. "I am sorry you ran as well my dear" Markus said honestly "But the past is the past for a reason, leave it behind so where we can look forward to a better future" he said knowing he sounded like a ridiculous Fortune Cookie or something but honestly he didn't care he was being completely honest with her. "That's a question for Razor," Markus said looking at her "Because honestly, I could care less what Razor thinks or does," he said truthfully as he took Ella's small hand into his own larger one. "It's you and I from now on baby," he said kissing the top of her hand gently with a smile.
 
Ella twisted nervusly as Markus spoke. She gave just a small nod before sitting. She didnt want to talk anymore. She looked toward her window until a knock came. She watched closely as Markus went to retrieve their food. She did her best to eat what she could. However for the most part she picked at it and pushed it around her plate. It was almost a hour before she was willing to open her mouth to speak again. "What.... what happened with my father?" Nothing more had been said about the man.
 
Markus watched the way that Ella moved around the bed. Wondering honestly if he had upset her with something he said by the way she was being quiet. Ella had never been this quiet with him not even when he had first brought her here as a kidnap victim. Looking around Markus sighed as he placed his hand on the the wound that had been seared shut on his stomach he knew eventually he'd have to get some alcohol and water to clean it up so where it wouldn't get infected that's the last thing he needed as well as the last thing that Ella needed to see from him. Soon the knock rang out in the room and Markus stood making his way over to the large oak door. Standing at the door he took a deep breath before opening it seeing Tiny standing at the other side of the hallway as if not to be seen by Ella who had only wanted Markus to be around, the only person she had felt safe around after her rape. "Thank you, Tiny" Markus said kneeling down to grab the ornate silver tray with food for both Ella and himself. After grabbing it he stood up walking back into the room kicking the door shut lightly with his foot before making his way back over to the bed where he sat down next to Ella. Handing her, her food he smiled "Eat up Ella you need your strength" he said before gathering up his food to eat.

Quietly Markus sat on the bed eating his food, the silence in the room killing him because the last thing that he wanted was for her to be upset with him after everything they'd been together. An hour passed with this silence slowly driving Markus who was a known talker absolutely mad. Opening his mouth to say something his ears were filled with her words and so he turned his head "After the beating we gave him I've heard nothing more about him. I was told though that your mother was contemplating leaving your father after the pain he caused both you and her throughout the years. It appears Widow has stepped up to the plate on that when the time comes that your mother decides to leave she is going to write Widow and then Widow is going to go to your house with Tiny and help her move out of the home they'll also be there just in case your father decides to do anything stupid they'll be there to knock some sense into him" Markus explained honestly as he looked out the window to the beautiful scenery outside. The trees swaying in the wind, the grass peeking out slightly from the thin layer of snow on the ground. Oh, how he wished he was artistically talented so that he could preserve these images in paint, charcoal or lead, like most works of art were done in that time period.

Pulling himself from his thoughts Markus began gathering up all of the dishes that they had used placing them all carefully on the silver tray before getting up to place it on one of the dressers in the room. This is when he went over to the window and stared outside of it. Taking in the scenery once again outside "I always liked to see the snow covering the ground, the sunlight glistening off the snow. At one time it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen that was until I met you" he said turning his head to look at Ella with a smile "Even now I realize that you truly are the greatest thing that's ever happened to me. With us being together officially I can't help but daydream of the life we're going to have together Ella" he said making his way back over to the bed once more only this time he laid next to her pulling her small frame to his larger one, his arm going around her waist as he leaned in and kissed her cheek gently.
 
Ella watched closely as Markus made his way toward the door. She was happy when she didn't see anyone there. Markus was the only one who made her feel safe. Blue eyes took in every move Markus made, she offered a smile as he joined her on the bed. The pair sat on the bed and ate with out a word. She finally asked about her father, hoping he was not being any more trouble for Markus. She smiled softly as he answered her, spoke of her mother. She wanted to ask more put she didn't. She watched as he looked out the window and her blue eyes looked toward the window.
A deep blush washed over her face when he spoke. "I... I never liked snow. It was to cold." She said shyly not knowing what else to say. She looked up at him as he made his way toward the bed, and joined her. Her blush only deepen when he kissed her cheek. Turning to face him she pressed her body into his. Her blue eyes closed as she just enjoyed his closeness. Her hands moved shyly over his chest as she relaxed fully into him. "Markus.... are... am I still kissable?" She asked lightly.
 
Markus heard her comments about how snow was never one of her things because of how cold it was. That was true, snow was cold and that's the reason a lot of people disliked the Winter season. Soon he was moving across the room to snuggle her to him, loving the feeling of her small body pressed up against his own in such close proximity. "Absolutely you are" Markus replied before taking her face in his hands lovingly "The most kissable woman I've ever met" as he said this he pulled her closer to him and kissed her passionately, allowing his emotions to deepen the kiss as one of his hands moved down to rest on her waist. The kissed lasted for several long moments before he finally pulled away feeling as if his breath had been stolen from him as he did so. "I love you and I never want you to leave me. I love being with you and talking to you my beautiful Ella."
 
Ella felt unwantedable, unloveable now thanks to what had been done to her. She asked if Markus thought she was still kissable. She could feel the warmth from his body washing over her. Her face heated as he said she was. Her body stayed relax as he held her face and pulled her closer. Her eyes fluttered closed the moment his lips meant her. She did her best to kiss him back with as much passion as he did her. It was several long moments before he pulled away and she couldn't stop the whimper protest that came from her soft pink lips. Her hands closed tightly around his shirt as he spoke and she shook her head. "I don't want to leave you." She kissed him this time. Just as she had the night she ran way. However this time she didn't rub, she pushed herself closer to him. Her body pressing against his in such a way she could feel every bit fo him. "Don't pull away." She whispered lgithly. She wanted to feel him, wanted to know what a man like him could make her feel.
 
Markus smiled as he felt her full pink lips against his own as they kissed again after he had pulled away. Markus couldn't even begin to remember the last time he had felt this good, the last time something as simple as a kiss had caused him to feel the way he was now. Markus knew now that this kiss would deepen, the feelings behind it growing stronger and soon he'd give in to the sexual desires he had been holding back since the day they met. Markus lifted her up placing her on his lap as his arms went around her, the entire time his lips never left her as his hand explored her sides slightly. Letting his tongue snake out slightly Markus poked at her lips hoping she'd allow him the pleasure of French Kissing her.
 
Ella was happy when Markus didn't pull back, she worried he pull away from her. Even if only out of fear of her reaction. She gasped against his lips as she was lifted into his lap. She let her hands wrap lightly around his next. His hand moving against her body made her feel hot in such away she felt she needed more. She had never felt this way before, it was such an amazing thing. She felt his tongue brush against her lips and she couldn't help but let her mouth open. She wasn't sure if that was the right reaction, but it felt right. As her pink lips parted she slid of own tongue forward to meet his. She moaned against his lips and slowly moved her hips against his. "Markus" His name came out breathless.
 
Markus couldn't help but chuckle slightly as he heard her gasp knowing that she had no idea of what he had planned for her when he transferred her from the bed to his lap. As her arms wrapped around his neck it took everything he had not to throw her down and show her the love a man could give a woman. But he needed to take things slowly not wanting to overwhelm her after what had happened to her.

After her mouth opened he let his tongue slide in as they began French kissing his hands moved from her waist to her back as he began rubbing it slightly. The two were making out like two horny teenagers alone in the woods. His name came from her lips and it sent shivers up his spine. "Ella" he whispered against her lips happily as he rested his forehead against hers staring into her eyes lovingly "Have I told you lately just how lucky I am to have found a woman as beautiful and intelligent as you who is willing to be with a man like myself," he asked curiously. "I want to show you just how amazing you are but...I'm afraid that doing so will bring back the bad memories of what happened to you and I'd never intentionally hurt you."
 
Ella happily welcomed his tongue into her mouth. She moaned at the taste of him, not fully understanding how a man could taste so good. She moaned his name and smiled when he said her name. The moment his forehead meant hers her blue eyes opens. His words made her blush, until he said that word. She pulled away slowly as he said but, fear filled her. As he spoke the words she fared hearing she simply nodded. Ella didn't know what to say, so she didn't say anything. She looked down to were her hands now resting her lap. It was a few minutes before she spoke again "I understand." She didn't move from her spot on his lap, she simply sat there. Thinking about how they could have any kind of relationship with the ghost of what happened to her. Could she ever be the woman he needed? He was handsome, and sweet and she knew he could have anyone if her wanted them. Someone not broken, someone he didn't have to fear bringing back bad memories with.
 
Markus smiled as they made out the both of them enjoying even a slice of normality after everything that had happened to both of them was actually a nice change of pace. Seeing the blush on her face he thought maybe his words got through to her but then he saw the fear in her eyes he knew that his words had only caused her pain which is not what he had ever wanted. Sure, Markus had hurt and even killed hundreds if not even thousands of people during his tenure as the leader of the Black Plague Outlaw group but Ella had never been one of those people who he had wanted to hurt. "Ella," he said softly as his hand moved from her waist to caress her face lightly, his thumb stroking over her cheek as he smiled at her "Being with you even for just the last twenty-four hours has been the greatest time of my life. I understand that what you went through was terrifying, was life-changing in ways that I will never begin to understand nor would I try to begin to do so since I'd only look like a fool. I'm here for you in any way that you need me, I will never hurt you, I will stay by your side as your boyfriend. Let you know how truly wonderful you are, how beautiful you truly are... And I will wait as long as it takes for you to feel comfortable before ever trying to make a move on you" he said leaning in to kiss her lips once more just loving the taste of her. "And if you ever need to talk about anything even if you just need someone to listen to you... I'm your guy."
 
Things had not gone well for Ella over the following week. At night she couldn't sleep, even with Markus by her side. During the day whens he was finally able to get some sleep the nightmares came. She had pulled away from everyone, even Markus. She spent most of her time locked up in her room, only coming out when Markus dragged her. She was fully shutting down, everything only made worse by the fact Markus had yet to deliver on his promise. While the man who had kidnapped her was dead, the men who had hurt were still out there. More then once she woke screaming for Markus, while fighting against his hold. No matter what no one seemed to be able to help the girl.

The sun wasn't up, yet Ella sat in the window of Markus' room. He had thought she feel safer away from everyone else. It had helped in away, but no like he had hoped. Her green eyes looked out the window and took in the horses who slept away. She looked back toward the bed happy to Markus still asleep. He had been working over time trying to find the men who had hurt her, and help her. She felt bad for keeping everyone so worried. She just didn't know how to move past what had happen. She was wrapped up in a blanket she had found laying around the room. Her head rested against the wall as she sat in the little window seat. Her mind thinking of nothing and everything at the same time.
 
Everything had gone to shit the people who had raped Ella had scattered every direction, but as promised Markus had sent his best outlaws in every direction to find them no matter the cost. But it wasn't only the outlaws under Markus who were working to find them. Markus personally rode off into a different direction every single day to find them. He was running himself ragged trying to locate the men who had caused his Ella such great distress. Sometimes he would stay awake for days on end but made sure that he was always home at night so where he could be with Ella.

Markus currently laid in his large king-sized bed passed out on the bed because of he had worked eighteen hours straight because he had gotten a good lead on one of Joren's main lieutenants who worked closest with Joren and while Markus hadn't been able to find Drako. Markus had sent his two best outlaws Tiny and Widow to find Drako the only remaining son of Ivan this was the last of the [/b]'Royal Blood'[/b] or first members of the Dark Riders outlaw group though next the others would be on Markus' radar.

Widow walked up to Markus' door she had great news she had not only found but retrieved Drako and brought him back to The Black Plague's clubhouse for Markus to deal with personally. There were more to find but this would be an amazing first step to show Ella that Markus meant what he had said about finding and exterminating every single member of the Dark Riders that had wronged Ella. Slowly she walked up to the door of Markus' room and knocked lightly waiting for an answer from either Ella or Markus to open the door. So where she could give them the great news.
 
Green eyes turned toward the door when the knock rang out. Her eyes turned toward Markus who still slept. He had been gone so long, she hated when he was gone. Some days she even begged him to stay, but he never did. Getting up slowly she wrapped herself up nice and tight before heading for the door. She opened the door just a crack to see Widow standing there. "He is asleep." Her voice was weak and horse. "Should I wake him?" She looked back toward his handsome face. If she woke him he would just leave again.

She stepped back and opened the door for Widow to come in. She head toward the bed, slid into it slowl. She crawl until she right beside big sleeping man. "Markus.... Widow is here." She laid a gentle hand on his chest. Her green eyes locked on his face.
 
Widow smiled as he saw the eyes of Ella peek outside of the cracks in the door as it opened only slightly. "Normally I would say know but this is information that I know Markus would want immediately," she said sweetly having actually gained not only respect for this young woman but having now felt a bond between them. This woman loved Markus and he loved her which meant that she had to love Ella as well though it wasn't hard to do when she got to know Ella better.

Waiting patiently she watched the door open and so Widow walked in slowly.

Markus laid asleep on the bed at first he didn't even feel when Ella crawled up onto the bed and it wasn't until he felt the small hand placed on his chest did his eyes flutter open. "What is it my love," he asked curiously having not heard that Widow was there to speak to him. As his eyes opened though he saw Widow "What is it, Widow? What is so important that you had to wake me up?"

"Drako has been found, captured and is now waiting in the interrogation room" Widow replied softly.

"Mmm you found Joren's only remaining original lieutenant," Markus said sitting up slowly "Do you want to join me my love. To watch him tortured and murdered for his crimes against you" this was something that he was personally going to take care of.
 
Ella offered Widow a soft smike, beside Markus she was the only one Ella trusted. She slid closer to Markus as he woke. She kept her hand rested on his chest as she looked toward Widow. Her words made Ella's heart race and as Markus moved she reached out for him. She didnt want him to leave. "I..." she didnt know what to say. Reaching out for Markus she shook her head. "Please.... just..." her eyes jumped to Widow before looking back at Markus, a clear sign she wanted to be alone with him.

Once Widow had gone she looked at Markus, she was careful when he spoke. "I dont want you leave me. He.... he is the last one, the last original. Will you stay now? " her eyes showed how unsure she was. "I... I will come." She said lightly.
 
Widow smiled as she saw the way Ella looked. "Don't worry Ella when you and Markus are done talking I'll be in my office," she said with a bow before walking out of the room slowly.

Markus turned around so that he could see Ella's face wanting to really get a reading of the woman who he loved more than anything. "Drako is the last of the original core of the Dark Riders," he said softly "However, there are more involved with the incident that happened to you" even after the time had passed he was never able to bring himself to use the word rape. That was exactly what had happened but the word was like poison on the tip of his tongue. "But I will stay for now. I'll send Razor, Widow, and Tiny to lead the search for the other Riders who caused you so much harm" Markus smiled as he stared at Ella hearing say she would come with him. Standing up slowly he reached out taking her hand before pulling her up into his arm lovingly. "Listen, my love, I just want you to be somewhat happier than you have been. Our life together starts today with the death of Drakoi, the last original Dark Rider.
 
Ella smiled, happy when Widow understood and gave them time alone. She hated when he looked at her like that, when he read her. She was nervus, and uneasy when she spoke. He could never say the word and it made her feel even more worthless. She had been made worthless by the rape the men had done to her. She offered a weak smile when he said he would stay for now. It meant he would leave once again at sometime. He pulled her into his arms and she looking back up at him. She offered a small smile. "I'd be happier if you would stay with me. If.... " she looked away unable to finish what she was going to stay. "I should dress." Her brusies had long since faded. Yet she never looked at herself, she didnt let Markus look at her.
 
Markus looked at Ella as they just sat there mere inches from each other. He didn't know that his fear of saying the word rape in front of her was causing her distress as well. For if he would've known that she felt worthless by him not being able to say the word he wouldn't have ever done it. When she began speaking about being happier if he stayed he smiled at her. "Listen, my love, I will stay I have no problem being around you. In fact being around you is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me" Markus said lightly touching her face carefully with the palm of his hand. Though as she cut off mid-sentence and tried changing the subject and began talking about getting dressed. "No, no Ella please finish your sentence," he said honestly. "You would be happier if I would stay with you...If I would...What? If I would what Ella" he asked curiously. "I will do anything because I want you happy. You're the first person to really cut through the heart of ice that once beat ice water in my veins."
 
Her heart raced and fear over took her as he asked her to finish. Her hands started to wrap around one another. A habit she had picked up since being locked in the cage at the dark riders. She stood and moved away from him, she was unable to even stand still as the fear took over. "If you.. stop treating me like im broken.... I mean... I know im worthless now, but I'm trying... and maybe I should try anymore." The last part was said more to herself. "I dont want to come." She said heading toward his closet. She had gotten better about locking herself awaym but from time to time the feeling came back to hide. She soon found herself in a ball in the back most corner of cloest.
 
"I don't think you're broken," Markus said looking at Ella honestly "Never once did I even consider you broken. I just knew that you would be upset and I wanted to stop from upsetting you which is why I refused to say the word of rape in front of you.

Though he watched as she ran off stating that she would in fact no be going to where Drako was being held. Slowly he walked after her that she'd locked herself away in the closet. Carefully he sat outside of the door to the closet on the floor "I just wish you could know how truly special you are to me. You've become an integral part of my life, the person who helps keeps me anchored down in pure happiness.

"I will go and take care of this monster who knew of what happened to you, torture if to all even share a properly with Ella and Markus insise.
 
Ella looked at the door hearing Markus right outside. "I dont want you to go." She said through her tears. Knowing Drako was here, even locked up, scared her more then anything. She didnt want Markus to leave, she didnt want to see that man right now. She needed time to think about everything. She didnt want to be alone, and Markus was the only one she trusted. "Please.... dont leave.... I need you." She begged him. "Markus...." she cried a little harder.
 
"I told you I wasn't going anywhere. I was going to the room to ask him where the others were, and to kill him for what he and his group did to you" Markus said softly "When it is time to find the others I have men and women who will help look for them leaving me so much time to spend with you my love just as I have been trying to do the entire time we were looking for Drako."

Markus wasn't sure that he'd never have to leave again but he knew that he wanted to do so as little as possible, to spend every moment that he could with Ella. "Ella I know that there will be times that I will have to leave in the future, I can't make any promises that I wont get hurt hile on a job. These are things that are out of my control but I'm going to come back each and every single time."
