She scowls at me playfully. “And don’t pay attention to his gibe. He can talk the birds off the trees, this one can.” Dakota laughs. The sound of her laughter has every fibre in my body at attention. All I want to do is pick her up from her chair and make her mine right here and now on top of this table.

“I’ve noticed that,” she quips with a grin at Julie, and then shrugs. “But don’t worry, sugared words won’t get anywhere with me.”

“You hear that, boy? I think you have just met your match,” Julie jokes as she pats Dakota’s hand playfully. “Well, enough talk. Let’s get your order in, as I’m sure you’re hungry.”

When Julie leaves, I see that Dakota is still holding a smile on her face as she looks at me. “You keep surprising me,” she says with a shake of her head. “You have this whole bad boy persona going, but then you chat up older ladies, you pull out chairs like a gentleman, and you order enough food to feed a regiment.”

“I’m hungry, okay? I haven’t eaten the whole day,” I say teasingly, but it’s the truth, as I didn’t want to leave Dakota during the day where I didn’t have an eye on her. I thought about texting one of the others to bring me something, but the minute I had the thought, I decided against it, as my anger immediately rose to the front when I thought of one of them near Dakota.

“Well, you’re going to eat now for a whole week,” she teases, which has me as hard as iron, looking at her twinkling eyes and her voluptuous lips.

“Nah, you think that’s a lot, you have to see Goliath eat,” I say, and she raises her eyebrow.

“Goliath? Is that your dog?”

I throw back my head and roar with laughter. How appropriate. I must remember to tell the guys. “No, that’s one of my brothers,” I say when I’m able to talk through my laughter. I haven’t laughed like this in a very long time. It looks like my woman brings me happiness.

“Oh, I’m sorry,” she says, raising her hand to her flushed cheeks. “Maybe you should tell me their names so I don’t make a fool of myself again.”

“Well, let’s see, there is Goliath, who is a real Goliath, big in every way. He has the biggest heart.”

She smiles at that comment. “Is his name really Goliath, or do you guys call him that because of his size?”

“Nope, that was the name given to him when he was born,” I state. “There is Blue, who is away now, as he’s a musician, and a good one at that. Blue is the entertainer among us. There is never a dull moment when he’s close.”

Her eyes widen, and then her hand is over her mouth. “Do you mean Blue Strada?”

At her excited question, I frown. “Yes, why?”

“Oh, I love his music. I actually went to see him play once,” she says excitedly, which has me wanting to tear Blue asunder. Motherfucker better not come anywhere near her or I’ll have his head for lunch. Just then, our food arrives. Dakota gasps when she sees the mountain before me.

“It’s even more than I thought. Are you really going to eat all of that?” she asks, surprised. I nod. “Where do you put it all?” I smile, as there isn’t an ounce of fat on my body. Because of our constitution, we burn calories faster than the normal human.

“Careful or I might just eat you.” Her cheeks burn as hot as the sun, only now realizing what I just said. My cock is so hard that I must move slightly on my chair to try to relieve some of the pressure. Shit, if I’m not careful, I’ll burst a vein in the poor bugger. Trying to relieve some of the sexual tension between us, I continue to present my brothers.

“There is Frost. When you meet him, just ignore his sullenness. If you ever see Frost smile, then you know there is something wrong with him. Ever since we were kids, Frost has been a moody bastard, but he will have your back every time.” Dakota smiles as she takes a bite of her steak.

“Hawk is our man when it comes to finding things. I swear he can find a pin in a pile of nails.”

“You all have very unique names,” she says with a frown.

“Yep, but those were the names given to us when we were born. Let’s see, there is Gunner, and you will never meet anyone who can just chill as he does. Sometimes you forget he’s around, with his stillness, but don’t take him for granted. He sees everything.”

“I like the way you talk about them,” she says with a wistful tone in her voice that has me again wondering about her life.

“Family for me is everything, and they are all my family. I would die for any of them.” That isn’t just a statement. We will live together, but we will also die together if need be. “This one you will definitely find strange,” I tease. “Fang.”

She bursts out laughing. “Sureeee,” she quips. “Now I know you’re teasing me, and here I was believing what you were telling me.” She shakes her head in amusement, which has her sweet fragrance wafting around me.

“I’m not teasing. Fang is real.” Fang is a mean son of a bitch. He doesn’t take prisoners. If anyone threatens our pack, he is the first one there to put an end to them. “And he is as loyal as you will find. Then we have Dixon. He can get information out of people that sometimes no one else can. People just open up with him.”

She frowns. “How many are you?” She pushes her empty plate away. That is something I like—she ate everything on her plate. It looks like my woman has a healthy appetite, which pleases me. I don’t want my woman to starve herself because of looks.

“We are ten in total. There is still Dash, who can fix anything, and I mean anything.” Dash looks at problems in ways no one else does and comes up with the most amazing solutions. “Finally, we have King. King is the Wolverine MC president and a just leader. He goes over and beyond for his club and his men. You will meet King first; he can be intimidating, but don’t worry, he doesn’t bite.” Only when provoked, but I won’t tell her that.

“You’re very presumptuous, aren’t you? Who said I want to meet them?” I frown. Of course she will meet them. We will live with my brothers. There is no way she won’t be meeting them.

“You will like them.”
