I could tell she still struggled with the loss and the anger it left behind.
“You were pissed,” I guessed. “That’s understandable.”
“I was livid,” she spat. “I hated that there was no one to blame, and I was all alone. I didn’t have many family members and no one close. It felt like I lost everyone and everything I knew in an instant.”
I pulled her from the chair and onto my lap. “Fuck, baby. I’m so sorry that happened to you.”
“I loved my mother and brother, Balen, but my dad? He was my champion and protector, my rock, everything.” She shook her head. “Losing him completely destroyed me.”
“So you tried to escape from reality.” I did, too. But Drake wouldn’t let me. He made me throw up the pills I swallowed. I couldn’t slice my wrists. It was too much to put my dad through; he would have lost it. I gave up on suicide.
Drake became my companion after that. We settled into a routine. I took control on most days. When something happened to trigger extreme pain or trauma, he took over. When violence was needed, he became the monster. It was fitting that he earned the nickname Creature.
“I battled depression, rage, and grief all at the same time. My friendship with Bells saved me from trying it again.”
Suicide. I understood.
We almost lost her before we found her.
“Come here.” I hugged her close and then leaned back, tipping her chin up so I could stare into those perfect, pretty eyes. I’m going to kiss you. Is that okay?”
She blinked before her eyes dilated. I could tell she wanted it. Her desire was plainly written on her face. “Yes.”
My hand slid up her back, cupping the back of her neck and angling her head for better access. Her eyes closed as I watched the emotion flicker over her features, and then I pressed my lips to hers.So fucking soft.I never met a woman with smoother skin or a softer, sweeter mouth.
My tongue plunged past her lips, dipping inside, warm and wet. The thought went straight to my cock. I grew hard so fucking fast that I almost groaned. Blair’s chest butted against mine as my tongue circled around hers, naturally deepening the kiss.
I tightened my hold around her nape as my thumb feathered across her pulse. It raced beneath, and I almost broke the kiss with a grin. Her fingers gripped the front of my shirt and bunched the material of my tee. And that was when my growing erection dug into her core because she straddled my hips, grinding down once on my cock.
Fuck me.
She’s into this. Blair wants us.
I fucking wanted her too.
Her tongue swept inside my mouth, and I tugged her against me, removing the last couple of inches that separated us. My hand speared into her hair, and the kiss turned rougher, wilder. . .until she winced in pain.
Shit! I forgot she was injured.
I pulled back, my forehead resting against hers. Her breath fanned over my face as she licked her lips. I had to separate us. My body had come alive with her touch, but I had to stop it—for now.
She jutted forward like the pain didn’t bother her, but I wasn’t letting that happen a second time. I stopped her from getting closer since my hand still wrapped her neck.
“You need to heal first.”
She glanced at me through her lashes. “I know.”
The corner of my lip curled. This woman. She tested my restraint like no other ever had. I was tempted to lay her back on the table, strip her down, and feast on her pussy before I shoved my cock inside her and made her come at least three times.
My dick strained against my zipper. I’d be in pain for a bit after this. Desire and lust throbbed through my veins, building a fire that blazed with heat and need. She fucking did wicked things to my body and brain.
Every ounce of my control had been tested. She would have given in to me, and taken my dick, riding me on that chair without a care about who could have walked in on us. That turned me on even more. But I needed to do this the right way, on her terms, but also, so she understood this wasn’t a fling. Not to me. I didn’t want to fuck her until I grew bored. I didn’t think that was even possible.
But I also needed to remember she wasn’t part of my world. She didn’t grow up with an MC or bikers. This was all new to her.
Blair was the type of girl who fell hard for her man and was all in when it happened. I had to help her see that I felt the same, that I was all in with her, and I didn’t want or need any other woman in my life or my bed.
She trusted me. It was inevitable that she would be starry-eyed when I saved her life twice. But this went far deeper. This connection and attraction we felt wasn’t going away.
