“Dex,” the other one says before Dante can gift him with an alternate road name.
A third guy walks up behind them, and Dante holds up his hand. “Z, didn’t think you were coming.”
He slaps his brothers on the back. “Couldn’t let them ride alone.”
The first two study my cut and VP patch before giving me a nod.
Z—whose patch also reads VP—offers his fist for a bump. “’Sup, VP?”
“Where’s your prez?” Murphy asks Dante.
“Around. You just walked in. Business can wait. Have a drink. Or a girl,” he suggests, nodding at one of the bunnies edging in closer to us.
Z walks off with a tiny blonde, but the other two ignore the girls.
We’re interrupted by another Iron Bull member, Luck. “You guys hanging here?”
“Yeah, man. Romeo told our prez there was room for us,” Murphy answers.
“Right. Rebel’s been pacing all night, waiting for you to show up,” he says, leading them away.
This must be the deal my father wants more information about, but for now, I hang back and act like I have no interest.
Dante’s attention is drawn to Karina. “I think our girls need a break,” he says to me.
Instead of walking up to them, he crooks a finger at Karina. As soon as she sees him, she grabs her sister’s hand and hurries over.
“Hey, baby girl,” he murmurs, wrapping her up in an embrace that makes Kadence gag.
She playfully touches my hand, and I yank her close, burying my face against her neck. “I’m all sweaty.” She giggles and pushes me away.
My arms tighten around her. “I know, I like it.” I take a quick lick of her salty skin, and she squirms.
“Having fun?” I murmur against her ear. Her body relaxes against me, and my hand finds its way to her ass.
“Yes.” She jerks her chin toward Dante and Karina. “I could do without watching my little sister get molested by the big man-beast, though.”
Dante—who must have exceptional hearing—glances over and smirks at Kadence. She smiles sweetly at him, and he laughs.
We follow him back to one of the couches in the center of the room. Karina crawls right onto Dante’s lap, and he looks happy as fuck to have her there.
Kadence glances at me as if asking if I want her to do the same. I sling my arm around her shoulders to keep her right where she is.
One of the girls drops off a drink for Karina and asks me what we need.
“So, New York?” I ask, tilting my head in the direction the newcomers disappeared. “How’d you lure them all the way down here?”
Dante drills me with an intense stare before answering. “Friendly visit.”
His way of telling me to mind my own business.
Well, fuck.
Social time gets cut short when Romeo returns to the room. Blaise and Bolt disappear into the chapel with Romeo and Dante. A couple guys from both crews follow. Plenty of guys are left in the clubhouse for me to be concerned about our safety. Maybe this is some sort of magical couch in the Iron Bulls MC’s compound, though, becauseno onebothers us. Usually an unattended female in a room full of bikers is in for an ass-grab, or at the very least, a bad pick-up line.
Not even the two outsiders who received all the attention when they showed up earlier bother us.
Karina’s face brightens as a guy in an Iron Bulls cut approaches us. “Hi, Luck.”
