Why hadn’t he told me he wasn’t coming back?
Fuck. I was a mess.
I had been trying to run away from him for months now, to keep him at arm’s distance and now I was pissed off he wasn’t coming back?
“You okay?” he asked, breaking me from my spell.
“Yeah…sorry. Totally spaced on you.”
He smirked. “Yeah you did. Morena is coming soon, so I’ll just chill out until then. You go and do what you gotta do.”
I smiled over at him and took our empty plates back to the kitchen. It was hard to believe Chains would be a father soon. I knew he’d be a great one, he was a strong protector for Shauna, always had been…even when he denied that he liked her more than he should.
Taking the plates into the kitchen, I rinsed them off and stacked them in the dishwasher before heading back to my room. At least one threat was going to be eradicated. Neal was going to end his life here, just like it always should have been.
I passed by Maree, heavy into the paperwork and stopped at the door. “You getting ready for your next adventure?”
Maree chuckled. “I need to teach you how to do all this.”
“No thanks,” I laughed. “I’d rather just pull the beers. But Shauna was looking for something to do. Maybe we could train her up, yeah?”
“That’s a great idea,” Maree said. “I’ll talk to her tomorrow about it.”
“Give me a yell if you need me, I said. “I’m going to go and lay down.”
Maree waved me off, busy with her paperwork again, and I headed down the hall. Once I was inside my room, I locked the door and headed to my bed.
Savage
“He in there?” I asked, looking over at the boys standing guard at the shed. The ride from Limerick had been hard, rain pelted us from every direction and I was in need of a hot shower. Hawk nodded, looking over at the shed and back at me. “What’s the plan?”
“Thinking of stringing him up until Chains has the chance to use something on him to end his life. Ace would be all too happy to help with that, I think.”
“We all would, brother.”
“Go inside, tonight’s going to be a big one.”
I nodded and headed for my room. The clubhouse was already bustling with the news of a big announcement coming which had called all of us home. It had been almost two weeks since I last spoke to Shona, and I fucking couldn’t wait to get her alone. I’d made plans over the last week, and I intended to prove to her that she was the one for me. That I would do fucking anything to keep her in my bed.
I knew she wanted me. I knew it. I just needed to get her to see it was a good idea first.
I managed to slip past the multitude of bikers I hadn’t seen in a while and headed into my room. I stopped in my tracks when I saw who was asleep in my bed. A smile spread across my face when I looked upon her beautiful blonde hair splayed out over my pillows, her breasts pushed up and out of her tank top. The way she wore that thing even when they never stayed tame, I didn’t even know why she bothered. The sheet was pulled up to her belly button as she dozed heavily.
Perfection.
What bothered me was the fact my door was fucking unlocked. She knew I hated that shit when she was in here.
I dropped my bag down softly and moved over to her, smoothing a lock of her hair out of her eyes. She twitched slightly, but didn’t wake up.
God, she was beautiful.
I got up and moved into the bathroom to have that shower I had been dreaming about the entire ride home. Stepping under the hot spray after peeling my clothes off me, I warmed myself up. My cock wasstirring at the image of her in my bed. It had been aching for her for too long now.
Once I was done, I wrapped a towel around my waist and walked out to find her still asleep. That woman could sleep through a goddamn hurricane, and I loved her more for it. She stirred as I watched her and I could see her breathing changing, signaling she was about to wake up.
Her eyes opened slowly, and she jumped up when she saw me. “My god, Niall, you scared the shit out of me.”
“Clearly.”
