“I know. These men are complicated.”
“But so hot.” Eva burps.
“Now that, we agree on, sister.” Clark clinks his glass with hers.
“Do not tell Tate that I said that.” Eva’s eyes go wide, and we laugh.
“I think Tate would go all possessive man on you if he heard you speaking about other men.” I wink at her.
“Oh, maybe I should try it. We like rough sex,” she adds.
“Okay, Missy, I think you need to be cut off.”
“Oh, rough sex can be so fun,” Clark adds.
“I agree.” I high-five him. “Besides having sex with Thorin and not including what the fuckers did to me, I have had sex with three other people, and it was nice. Not off the charts like it is with my man, but good. One liked it rough and opened my eyes to the darker side of sex, so I explored it. Knowing Thorin likeI do, I know that he will be more than willing to try things with me.” I wink, smiling slyly at my friend.
“You are one lucky bitch to have a man like that. He is hot, intense, my kind of man.” Clark grins.
“Well, find your own, you whore.” He bounces his eyebrows, making me giggle.
“I plan to. It is a shame that no man in the club likes dick. Mine is so pretty.”
I look at Clark. “Did you just say that your dick is pretty?”
“I did. I have been told many times that I have a nice dick.” He shrugs.
“It is because they wanted to get laid, man,” Rocky jokes.
“Fuck off, man.”
I watch as the two men banter, smiling at their good-natured vibe. They are like brothers who do not share blood. Skyla has told me about their past, and I love that they all had each other.
“She has passed out.” Skyla nods her head at Eva, who is slumped in her seat.
“I will text Tate to come and pick her up,” Rocky says, fishing his phone out of his pocket.
He types out a text, dropping the phone onto the table next to him. The three friends look at a sleeping Eva, smiling. The love that they have for each other makes me jealous that I never had that.
My family was shit, so I never felt love until I met my ex, and look how that turned out. He used my neglected heart to use me, to hurt me. It was the club who made me see what friendship, brotherhood, and a made family looked like, and it mended a part of my heart.
“I love what you all have,” I blurt out, causing three sets of eyes to look at me.
“We are a found family, from broken bloodlines, babe. We all went through something shitty that no kid should, but we got through it with each other,” Skyla tells me.
“What she said. Our stories are different but bad all the same. Same with you, honey. What happened to you was horrific but look at you now. You are strong, feisty, and sexy as fuck,” Rocky adds.
“And you have a found family of your own, plus a man who will literally kill for you,” says Clark.
He is right; the club are my family, and yes, Thorin would kill anyone who hurts me. Hell, he already has.
“Do not let her man hear you calling her sexy,” Skyla jests, easing the suddenly deep conversation among us.
“He is testy when it comes to people using endearments for me.” I laugh.
“I like that in a man,” Clark swoons.
“Oh, we definitely need to find you a man with a touch of darkness and possessiveness in him,” I inform him.
