“We already established you’re the dull one, Con.”
He snickered as he pressed his lips to my forehead. Together, we stared out onto the living room where the Sinners were congregated, some eating, others drinking, most of them talking and if not talking, then arguing.
“I-I think,” I whispered, “these guys might have been my family and I didn’t realize it.”
“What gave it away?” he whispered back.
“They missed me.”
“Of course they did.”
“No, I didn’t think they would.” I released a breath. “I didn’t even think Savannah would.”
“You were wrong about that too, weren’t you?”
“I was and I’m glad I was wrong. But don’t tell Kat that.”
His chuckle came from the heart. “I won’t share your dirty secrets with anyone.”
“Enough of the filthy secrets and the filthy lies, hmm?”
“Only the filthy truth for us,” he agreed with a gentle squeeze of his arms.
“Do you want to do something crazy?”
“Something crazier than a house party on a Wednesday?”
“They’re an MC. They don’t work regular schedules.”
“Apparently.”
“Don’t be a product of a capitalist society, Conor.” I tutted.
“God forbid,” he mocked. “Okay, something crazy. Hit me with it.”
“Have you met Indy?”
“Yeah.” He quieted. “Ah. You want to get inked?”
I swallowed. “I’m wearing your brand.”
He reached around us and rubbed his fingers over the cameo on my hand. “You are. You want me to wear yours?”
Tilting my head back against his shoulder, I whispered, “Property of Star.”
He chuckled. “Where do you want it?”
My nose crinkled. “I’d say your ass cheek but then Indy would have to see it and your tush is mine.”
“Where then?”
“Somewhere your brothers won’t see it if you work out together.”
“I don’t care if they take a jab at me—”
“I care. I don’t want anyone to mock you for it.”
“If they don’t see it, how will they know who I belong to?” he drawled, but his tone was dark, deep. Like hot silk that poured over my skin, making goosebumps pop up and sending whispers of sensation coursing through my nervous system.
