Yeah, ten years.
I’m glad the fucker’s going to jail. And staying there. Same goes for his crazy bitch girlfriend. I should be glad that we learned more about Joey’s connection to my father because of our visit and garage hunting, but to have her almost killed? Not worth it.
Peterson can do his own fucking job.
We pull in front of the house and I shut off the engine. She’s been quiet all this way and I haven’t pushed her to talk. Processing everything and dealing with a fucked-up family is a lot. I’m here for her though. No chance in hell she’s dealing with this alone.
Nothing’s actually been resolved with Jonathan’s past actions, her brother ending up dead on our land, the freezing of Bridger funds. Any of it. Jonathan’s dead. So is Joey Hopkins. But Sadie’s alive and I’m going to remind her of that.
“Come on, baby.”
She looks my way and nods.
I go around the truck and open her door. Help her down. Keep my hands on her hips and her eyes lift to meet mine.
“When I want to clear my head, I go for a ride. That’s how I first met you.”
The corner of her mouth tips up.
“I was pissed about everything going on here and got on my bike. Found a random bar. Found a random woman who wanted to give me her panties.”
“You still have them, you know,” she says grumpily.
“Oh, I know. You’re not getting them back either.” I laugh. “But even if I hadn’t gone on that ride, we’d have met anyway, you know.”
She pauses, thinks it through. “Right, I was here the next morning.”
“I’d have seen you then, wanted you just as much. We were fated.”
“You, the big, brawny biker, think we’re meant to be?”
“Abso-fucking-lutely.” I close the space between us and kiss her.
She lifts her arms and circles them around my neck, tangling her fingers in my hair.
I lift her, and she wraps her legs around my waist. She’s pressed against the side of the truck and my tongue tangles with hers.
“Get a room, you two,” Austin calls from the front door.
Carly giggles beside him. Or I think it’s Carly, because I don’t turn. My focus is solely on Sadie.
I lift my head, look into Sadie’s dark eyes, ignoring Austin.
“Should we go to my room?” I ask. “I’ve got lots of places I want to kiss you.”
She smiles. “Yeah.”
My dick, already hard, presses into her core.
I don’t set her down, just turn and head up the steps. Sadie laughs, which is the best sound in the world.
“Sadie’s father’s an asshole. He wanted her dead in his grungy-ass basement. She shot him in the leg. He’s in jail. We learned more about her brother, but it’ll hold until later.”
Sadie’s looking at me as I give Austin and Carly a quick rundown of what happened. Carly’s wide-eyed and Austin’s jaw is clenched tight enough to crack molars.
Sadie kisses my neck.
“Much later.” I cut past the couple and into the house, down the hall, and to my bedroom.
