Her expression softens. She touches the handlebar like it’s something precious. “The one that brought you to me.”
Fuck, I love my woman.
“Come on,” I grumble, pulling her to the truck with one of my huge hands wrapped around her soft, round upper arm. “We need to hit the road before I bend you over my ride.”
She giggles. “We’re not taking the bike?”
I stop, frowning down at her. “Babe, it’s cold. I need you to stay warm. This is not like our first night. There’s no rush.” I open the passenger door, help her climb up into the cab. Getting handfuls of soft curves and letting my fingers linger on any part of her I can get. My lungs fill with her scent. Eyes feast on her beauty. “And I have a surprise for you,” I lean to kiss the tip of her nose. “I you behave.”
I don’t miss her raising a sassy eyebrow as I round the truck and slide into the driver’s seat. “A surprise?”
I nod, grinning like the incarnation of evil I am as I start the engine, the cage rumbling to life. “When we come back home.”
Destiny insists. “What kind of surprise?”
I just wink at her before turning my gaze to the windshield and pull out of the garage, heading for the compound.
“Rahel, I’m not playing with you.”
I steal a glance her way. Fucking adorable. And so goddamn fuckable with her arms crossed over her fucking perfect tits, her eyes wide with curiosity, chewing on her plump bottom lip.
“Gonna take you to the dream realm, baby. Where our souls found each other before our bodies did.” I reach over and squeeze a thick thigh. “
Her breath catches, and I don’t know if it’s from my words or my touch. I’d like to think both… “That’s possible?”
“Yeah, baby.” I glance at her, fucking loving the wonder in her eyes.
“To… tonight?”
“Tonight, little one, I’m gonna show you everything.”
I squeeze her full, soft flesh again, and she shivers in what I feel through our bond is anticipation. Fuck, yeah.

Our compound is about twenty minutes outside of Carmel. It’s a huge property we bought back in the eighties. There’s the main clubhouse building, a few cabins spread out on the vast piece of land for brothers who want their own space, a massive garage for our bikes, and it’s far enough from town that we don’t have to worry about neighbors hearing shit they shouldn’t.
Destiny’s anxiety spikes again as we pull through the gates.
“Rahel…”
I squeeze her fingers, giving her warmth. “I got you, little one.”
I park in the dirt lot by the main building. We can see and smell the delicious aroma of the barbecue’s smoke rising from the back. I come around to help my girl. She’s so small compared to me, even in her high-heeled boots. I could tuck her into my pocket. Fucking take her anywhere. Always with me…
“Viper!”
Zeke’s voice booms across the yard. My brother appears around the corner, grinning like a fucking idiot.
“About time, man. We were starting to think you weren’t gonna show.” His eyes land on Destiny, and his grin widens. “And this must be the omega who finally tamed your grumpy ass.”
“Destiny.” I keep my hand on her back. “This is Zeke. My MC brother. Ignore everything he says.”
“Rude,” Zeke chuckles, offering a hand to Destiny. “It’s nice to meet you, sweetheart. But you’re way too pretty for this ugly bastard.”
Destiny laughs, and I feel some of her tension melt off.
Zeke claps me on the shoulder. “Come on, everyone’s out back.” He returns his attention to Des. “We been dying to meet the woman who got Viper to actually smile.”
