It will be nice for this place to just be ours. No bullshit, no drama.
“Hey, are you okay?” Aspen asks.
When she runs her fingers through my hair, her nails scratching my scalp, I groan.
“Fuck, that feels good.”
She leans in close. “I didn’t know me playing with your hair would make your cock twitch.”
“Just you touching me makes me hard.”
“So easy to please…” she says as she does it again.
“Can you two not fuck in front of me?” Panther grumbles, making me open my eyes.
I watch as Maggie slaps him across the chest. “Be nice. They are just flirting, and you know it.”
“No, I don’t know it,” he mutters.
“I don’t know. They don’t really look like the kind of people who would have sex out in the open,” Yak says, reminding us that he’s here.
Aspen tenses in my arms.
“Enough. Let’s change the subject,” I say harshly.
Panther’s eyes narrow as I begin to run my hand along his sister’s thigh.
Aspen takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly.
“Good girl,” I say quietly as our group begins to talk about the bar.
“I hate that I reacted. His comment was harmless,” she says just loud enough for me to hear.
“Yeah, but they don’t know about what we did. What we were forced to do.”
“I’m sorry.”
I squeeze her thigh. “I already told you, you have nothing to be sorry for. Now let it go. It’s in the past, and that’s where it’s going to stay. We’re moving forward, right?”
“Right.” She nods.
“Hey, do you guys need anything?” one of the sweetbutts asks as she approaches.
When we all tell her we’re good, she walks away, and Rain approaches, looking angry.
“Who turned you into a rain cloud?” Yak asks.
“Ridge, he’s being a fucking dick,” she mutters as she flops down next to Yak.
“What did he do now?” Maggie sighs.
“I was flirting, and he scared the dude away,” Rain tells us.
“You shouldn’t be flirting with any of the brothers,” Panther tells her.
“Fine, if you won’t let me flirt here, then I’ll go into Denver and head downtown. I’ll pick up the first guy in a polo and fuck him in the girls’ bathroom,” Rain snaps back.
“The fuck you will,” Ridge hisses as he comes up behind her.
