Heart, who just took a sip of his beer, coughs when the beer comes out through his nose from the sudden laugh he chokes on.
Norie starts to pat my VP’s back.“It’s okay, Heart.You don’t have to use the second-thousand-hand wannabe blowup doll.I’ll buy you a brand-spanking new one.Best not to spank it, though, or it’ll be a one and done deal.”
“Stop,” Heart croaks.“Fucking hell, woman, you’re too much.”
“I know.”Norie’s face falls and her next words are hushed, but I catch them anyway when she says, “It’s what they all say eventually.”
Is this related to what Sevrin mentioned?People taking advantage and then dumping her once they’ve had enough?I shouldn’t care.On the other hand, it doesn’t feel right.Which reminds me of something else I’ve been avoiding.
“Norie,” I grunt to make her eyes collide with mine as I get to my feet.“We’re heading back to the clubhouse.Swade wants to talk to you.”
She gets up and says, “But do I want to talk to him?”
“I couldn’t give a rat’s ass.You’re going to talk to him either way.”I reach for her elbow, but she anticipates it and quickly moves her arm.
Whirling around, she gets right in my face.“Stop acting like my elbow is a steering wheel.I can move on my own accord, thank you very much.”
A smirk tugs my lips.Like I said, this woman doesn’t have the needy attitude, though she definitely has an attitude.
Letting some of the lust seep into my voice, I let her know, “You might move on your own accord, but you like me taking the wheel when my cock is inside you.”
Her cheeks heat, pupils dilate, and those lush lips part.I know she’s thinking about my cock deep inside her sweet pussy.Reaching for her throat, I curl my fingers around her neck and pull her close.
My lips brush her ear when I whisper, “Do you miss feeling sore?I might have been busy handling club business these past few days, leaving you to sleep alone in my bed, but I meant what I said.You.Are.Mine.”
Her breath catches.“You’re annoying.”
I give her throat a little squeeze, enough to make her gasp.“Admit it.”
She swallows, and it’s thrilling to feel how she leans into my grip.“Fine.I miss the good sex.Doesn’t mean I like you.”
A chuckle flows from me.“You like a part of me.It’s a start.Now, time for you to put that sweet pussy on the back of my bike.”
I move my hand to the back of her neck and guide her toward the door.
“Moving your grip from my elbow to my neck isn’t progress,” Norie grumbles.
Once we’re outside and it’s just the two of us, I keep my voice low when I tell her, “I need for you to find out if Swade knows about Gilpin.”
“My first response would be...he would never.Then again, he lied to me about something so freaking crucial.Though, I don’t think he’d let anyone fuck with the brewery.You know very well why he brought you guys in to push Bitchy Bitch out.She was going to rip his company to shreds by demanding half with the divorce.You guys handled it and managed to keep it in his hands.He wouldn’t fuck it up.”
“We need to be sure,” I press.
She huffs out a dramatic sigh.“Should I change into an all-black outfit?”
I frown and wonder, “Why?”
“The blood,” she states with a hint of “duh” in her tone.
An involuntary snort leaves me.“I kept Gilpin alive, didn’t I?”
Norie shrugs.“Time is ticking away for that asshole.He messed up big time.I seriously hate liars, but stealing from people you consider friends?What’s the whole point in being a part of a brotherhood when you stab members in the back and then look them in the eye with a smile on your damn face and be all happy and shit?I don’t get it I couldn’t do it...shit.I’d break out in hives if I did.The thought alone is enough to freak me out.”
“Greed I’m guessing.Though, you never really know what goes on in a person’s head.A prime example is how I earned my road name.”
“Do I want to know this story?”she mutters under her breath.
It’s time to tell her this part of my life to let her know where I stand when it comes to women.
