Maybe I should have taken that as a hint that we weren’t a good match. But you know, his cock down my mom’s throat really drove the point home for good.
Huh, maybe I should thank him?
“We need to come back before the weekend. I need to get more decorations for Rica’s party.”
“What happened to what you bought?”
“I popped the confetti cannon in the cop’s face then sprayed him with silly string.” I grin.
Be still my heart, this man smiles. Like a real full blown smile!
“Damn, Joyrider, you really know how to give a man a run for his money.”
“Should have kicked him in the nuts too. Next time though.”
His face goes dark again. “There won’t be a next time. If that fucker, or anyone else puts their hands on my Omega, I’ll fucking kill them.”
“Down, Daddy.” I bite my lip. “Keep talking like that, and I might just ride you on this bike right here, right now.”
A low growl rumbles in his chest. Nick grabs the front of my shirt and tugs me forward. “Watch your mouth, little Omega,” he growls. “Careful what you wish for.”
Like, is that supposed to be some kind of threat or something? Because if he wants to fuck me right now, I wouldn’t say no.
My breath catches and I know he can smell just how turned on I am right now. He groans, letting me go.
“Get in the truck, Nova.”
“Tease,” I mutter, flipping him off before getting into the truck. Thankfully, Rica’s dress is still in here.
As we head home, I can’t stop thinking about that detective. The hot one, not the asshole who kidnapped me.
I’m not sure what he wants with my Alphas, but he’s not going to get any information out of me. Maybe he’s just doing his job, but he better be careful. Come between me and my pack, and you will pay the price. My men know what they’re doing, and now that they have the MC, they won’t be going down without a fight.
Before, I told them to leave me out of it because I’m not going down for their crimes. Now, I find myself wanting to fight for them, to make sure that isn’t even an option.
Plus, it’s not like they’re robbing malls anymore. I made sure to tell them that it needed to come to a stop when we decided to stay in here.
Shit, what if they know about Nick and his killing?
Nah. If they did, they would have arrested him already... right?
Chapter 14
Nick
––––––––
I’m used to changes in my life, never feeling settled enough to feel comfortable. I’ve always looked over my shoulder, ready to strike, needing to be one step ahead. Not just because of my father but also because of the line of work I chose for myself.
Since the passing of that waste of space, a whole lot of weight has been lifted off my shoulders, but only to be replaced with new burdens.
Seeing the state of the compound made me sick to my stomach. My father truly thought he was some sort of god's gift to the world, when in reality, he was just a useless monster who only cared about himself. The money he could get, the power he could hold and the holes he could stick his damn cock into. He didn’t care about his men. He led them to their deaths head on. He didn’t care about the people they would be leaving behind. Hell, he didn’t care about them while he was here all these years.
The children don’t even know how to be kids. I don’t think half of them have ever stepped foot off the compound, for fuck’s sake.
And the women? Most of them don’t have a maternal bone in their bodies. Not that I can blame them too much. I don’t think a lot of them really knew what they were getting themselves into when they got tangled up with the men of this MC. The only women who were ever able to leave were the sweet butts. Once you became a member’s old lady, even if they fucking hated you, you weren’t allowed to leave.
When Kane got here, he was sickened and furious. He was ashamed to be associated with this club after seeing what had become of it.
