“I’ve got ’em,” Havoc pipes up before anyone can respond and I watch Sutton stiffen.

“You okay with that, Sutton?” I ask her wanting confirmation.

“I haven’t had anything to drink tonight and we came in my car. I’ll be fine,” she says and gives me a sweet smile. I watch as Ivy leans over and whispers something in her ear that makes her cheeks turn a light shade of pink before I turn to head down the hall.

As I start to walk off I hear a conversation over at the bar.

“God, that was so hot.”

“Man, what I wouldn’t give to get a piece of that.”

I turn to see who made the comments and find the new prospects. Giving them a scowl that would kill a man on the spot, they immediately give a “Sorry, sir” and then quickly make themselves look busy wiping down the bar.

This is why I didn’t want to share her with anyone. Is this how it will always be; me wanting to kill every fucker that attempts to even glance over in her direction?

I’m trekking down the long hallway back to my room and see Blaze and Allison coming out of his room here at the clubhouse that we kept for him. We haven’t seen them since we arrived back from our long trip this afternoon and by the looks of their appearance it’s the first time they’re resurfacing to the land of the living.

Giving him a nod, “See you at Dad’s for dinner tomorrow.”

“Sure thing, apparently we have a lot to catch up on.” He chuckles then nods at Raegan over my shoulder.

“See ya later!” A giggly Raegan mimics and waves to them as we continue on to the room.

I sit her on the edge of the bed, and I lock the door before I start removing my clothes. She is still a sight to see even in her drunken state. She had all my brothers eating out of the palm of her hands tonight, and I think everyone approves of her being my woman with the way they all interacted with her. I want her to be comfortable here with my brothers before I ink and claim her with her Ol’ Lady cut. She needs to see how we are and be able to accept me, all of me, the good and the sinister.

Taking the last article of clothing off, I see she’s naked and sprawled out like a starfish in the middle of the bed with her eyes closing.

“Babe, did you want to play a little or go right to sleep?” I whisper in her ear as I lay on top of her.

Raegan mumbles incoherently, “…you better lose yourself in the music.” I can’t help the chuckle that leaves me. Placing soft kisses along her jawline down toward her neck, I reach for the bedding at the bottom where they were thrown from our earlier session.

I get situated then pull her to rest on top of me, kissing her temple. I start to feel my eyes getting heavy, and the last thought before sleep takes me under is how perfect life is at this moment and how I hope it lasts forever.

Pulling my new Harley Breakout into Dad’s driveway, I cut my bike off to help Raegan off. This bike is the newest edition to my fleet. I’ve been meaning to break her in these last few months, but club business has kept me busy. I see Blaze’s bike and Allison’s car already here so hopefully Raegan will calm the fuck down. We sent Ivy off to the airport a few hours ago with an escort and the promise of her return as soon as she can get away.

Taking her helmet off along with mine, I place them on the handlebars and try to smooth out my wayward hair with my ballcap. Raegan is fidgeting with her clothes and trying to fix her hair as well. I know she must be nervous to meet my folks, but she really has nothing to worry about. Even though I know they’ll love her, she keeps asking if she looks okay or plays with her fingers in a nerve-racking manner that makes me want to tie them up.

She looks sexy as hell wearing a long sleeved white shirt with tight blue jeans with a pair of suede boots. Her hair is done in waves with only a small amount of makeup on. I’m sure everyone we passed was wondering what this girl was thinking being on the back of a bike with a guy like me.

“Ready, Wildcat?” I ask, offering my hand to her. When we clasp them together, I can feel how clammy they are. “Don’t worry, just be yourself.”

She gives me a nod as we walk up to the front door where Melissa is standing in an apron.

“Oh, I’m so glad you two are here! I’m Melissa, dear,” my stepmom excitedly says. Dad says she’s been beside herself after hearing that I’d started dating Raegan. I’m afraid she’s going to bust out the wedding books ready to plan our ceremony just like she did with Blaze and Allison.

Christ, I hope everyone calms the fuck down and doesn’t scare her away.

Melissa immediately latches on to my woman in a tight embrace and I have to stop myself from removing her hands. What is wrong with her today? Never is she this touchy with us.

“Come in, come in.”

Melissa leads us down the hall from the front door and into the living room where we find Dad in his favorite recliner, Allison on the couch next to Blaze, and Annie is sitting on my brother’s lap playing with her dolls. Rocky is reading a book on the other end of the couch but turns our way when we enter. He smiles so big seeing Raegan, and if I didn’t absolutely love and know that he was harmless, I’d have words with him.

“They’re here!” Melissa announces.

What is going on with her?

Everyone stops chatting and turns to us. Allison hops off the couch and is the first one over to us engulfing Raegan in another embrace. Blaze is right behind her with Annie in his arms, who is reaching for my woman.
