Manic, another biker in a leather vest, slid from behind the wheel and joined us.
“Be careful. She’s hurt,” Creature informed him. “Hand her to me.”
Manic lifted me with care as Creature held out his arms. All the jostling put pressure on my tender wound and bruises. I winced and Creature saw.
“You okay?”
“Just in pain,” I managed to grit between clenched teeth. I sat on Creature’s lap as Manic covered me with the blanket.
“Shit. We’ll take it easy.” He shot Manic a look.
Phyllis waved. “I’ll be over in the morning before my shift starts.”
“Thank you,” Creature replied with a tight smile.
“Don’t worry. I got everything covered on this end.” She turned and reentered the hospital as Manic shut the door.
He hustled around to the driver’s side and climbed inside. “I’ll try to watch the turns and road for bumps.”
“I appreciate that. Thanks,” I whispered, already fatigued from the short trip outdoors.
We left the parking lot, and I lowered my head, resting it on Creature’s shoulder.
“Anything I can do for you?”
“No I’m just dizzy,” I confessed. “Tired, too.”
“Close your eyes. Rest.”
I yawned, intending to shut my eyes for a few minutes, but the rhythmic rocking of the van provided enough motion to sway my body against Creature’s. Safe and warm, I drifted asleep, allowing my body the ability to continue the healing process.
Chapter 8 Creature
When Blair said Mateo Ruiz was coming after her, I nearly lost my shit. Ever since I found her bloody and beaten outside Toxic Tonic, a protective, possessive need had risen within me, and I wanted to hunt down Mateo and any other asshole who ever tried to hurt her.
I didn’t hesitate to call Maddog, fill him in about Mateo Ruiz, and insist that I bring Blair to the clubhouse. Luckily, my new pres hated bullies as much as I did. The same could be said for Manic, who overheard the situation when Maddog put the call on speaker. He insisted on driving the van to the hospital to pick us up.
