He helps me clean up half an hour later and I walk him to the office door.

“I’ll see you tomorrow,” Wild whispers, leaning in and brushing his lips against my cheek.

My breath catches in my throat and I can feel a blush creeping up my cheeks.

I wanted him to kiss more than my cheek.

“See you,” I manage to get out and he grins at me, squeezing my fingers before he turns and heads out the back door of the club.

I watch him go, my head a mess of questions and doubts. The only thing that I know for sure?

I am so screwed.

ChapterFive

Wild

I’ve been waiting three days to ask Bristle out. It would feel like an eternity, but luckily I get to see her every day, so it’s not all bad. I’ve been bringing her dinner every night and trying to win her over, trying to earn that second chance.

If I can just prove to her that I am a good guy, that she really can trust me, then I think her walls would all come down and we could be together.

I’ve seen those walls crumbling little by little over the last three days, and that’s part of the reason why I think tonight is the night to finally ask her out on a date.

I already know that she has tomorrow off because we talked about our schedules last night. I’ve been talking to a few of my brothers in the MC about the best places to take her. It’s supposed to be nice out tomorrow, so maybe we could go for a ride on my bike.

I’ll admit, I’ve been looking forward to having her wrapped around me while we cruise down the road.

I nod to some of the bouncers at the back door of the Pussy Parlor as I head inside and straight for my girl. She’s in her office, her fingers clacking on the keyboard as she works. Her brow is scrunched and she looks adorable.

“I brought pizza,” I say as I close the door behind me.

She looks up, those big blue eyes meeting mine and I can see that she’s happy to see me. No matter how hard she tries to hide it.

I’m starting to wear her down. She’s starting to trust me, to want me as much as I want her.

“Pepperoni?” She asks and I grin at her.

“Of course.”

She clears off a space on her desk and I set down the box between us, opening the lid and grabbing her a slice.

“Thanks,” she says, taking a big bite.

She hums around the bite and I smile to myself. She does it every time she eats something that she likes and I’ve started listening for it now.

“How’s MC life?” She asks me and I tell her a bit about our meeting the other day and some of the club’s members.

I want her to like my brothers and to feel comfortable with the Club. In this town, they’re the good guys. Besides, once she’s mine, she’ll be spending more time around them and the clubhouse.

Our meeting the other night had been about the new crop of dirty cops that just joined the police force here in Valor. We’re not like most Motorcycle Clubs that people have heard about or seen on TV shows. We uphold the law and make sure that crime stays down in this town.

We’ve been having to keep a close eye since before I joined the Men of Valor MC. I had thought that we had gotten them under control, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

I push those thoughts away, not wanting to scare or worry my baby girl.

I ask her about the strip club and she tells me that she’s caught up on invoices and the weekly schedule and now she just needs to tackle vendor payments.

“Thanks for dinner,” she says as she helps me clean up the leftover pizza.
