There’s a glint in his eyes as he looks at me over his shoulder that makes my stomach bottom out. “It’s not a waste. I have a feeling that I’m really going to like having you on the back of my bike and that I’m going to be taking you home from now on.”

Any argument I might’ve come up with is immediately drowned out by the engine starting. I feel like every part ofme isvibrating, even my teeth.

Good Lord, this bike feels like the world’s largest vibrator. Annnd, yeah, that is not something I should bethinking about rightnow. Especially when I’m plastered to the back of the man who has been starring in a lot of my fantasies.

“You ready?” he yells over the growling engine.

I nod my head shakily as I grip his abs that are somehow even more solid than I’ve imagined.

Oh boy! This is going to be a long ride.

Holy fuck! I’m surprised that I managed to get us here in one piece. Trying to concentrate on driving as Bri’s fingers run up and down my stomach was nothing but pure torture. The only thing that kept my head on straight was thinking about how she would get injured if I fucked up and crashed my bike. But damn it was hard….among other things. Getting off my bike isn’t going to be pleasant by any means.

I park my bike in the back lot and kill the engine. The silence almost seems deafening in the late hour. Edge’s shop is the only one on the street currently open, making the whole town feel oddly deserted.

I look over my shoulder and see Bri biting down on her plump bottom lip, making me inexplicably jealous for some reason.

Jesus, I need to get a grip where this woman is concerned.

“How you doin’ back there?” I ask roughly, still staring at her lips like a fucking creep.

She shakesher heada little before giving me a wobbly smile. “I’m good.” Her voice is a little squeaky, but I guess that’s normal after her first bike ride. And I know that it’s her first ride on the back of a bike. I may or may not have ordered all of the guys to make damn sure that they had a car or truck when they were driving her. For her safety, of course.

I tap her left thigh with my hand. “Just swing off the same way you got on, again, holding onto my shoulders for balance. Your legs are probably going to take a minute or two to adjust.”

She gives me a jerky nod before dismounting. It takes even morewillpowerthan it did driving here to not crack a smile at how clumsy she is right now. I even have to reach out and catch her arm above her elbow before she falls. Even in the darkness, I can see how red she is.

“Thanks,” she mumbles while looking at the ground.

“No problem, Darlin’," Isay as I get off and turn to my saddle bags. I adjust my pants quickly before retrieving her purse. I haven’t sported this much wood since I was a fucking teenager. This woman is going to be the death of me. Or cause permanent damage to my dick from my zipper pressing against it so much. Maybe I should start wearing sweatpants more often. “I’ll walk you to your door,” I state as I place my hand on her lower back. Ya know, to make sure that I can help her if her legs are still shaky.

“You don’t have to do that,” she says as she walks with me to the outer door of Edge’s shop. “I’m fine once I get through this door. And you’re probably busy or want to get home,” she mumbles.

I shake my head and give her a smile. “Nah, I’m actually going to go in and annoy Edge for a bit. This works out perfectly since you have a key to the back door to his shop.”

She gives me a side-eyed look and shakes her head. “Has it ever occurred to you, to not annoy people?”

“Where’s the fun in that?” I scoff. “Life is meant to be enjoyed at all times. If not, what’s the point?”

She pauses with her key in the lock and raises an eyebrow. “And who told you that?”

“My pops has always been big on having fun and not dealing with unnecessary bullshit.” I give her a winning smile, “Obviously, I took his life lessons more to heart than Jax has.”

She nods her head. “Jax is very intense and slightly terrifying.”

I snort. “Terrifying? He’s like a big ol’ teddy bear.” I give her a look. “Plus, you didn’t seem too terrified when yelling at him.”

She gives a little shrug while unlocking the door. She looks over her shoulder while walking through, humor shining in her eyes. “It’s kind of hard to be scared of someone who is verbally getting their ass handed to them by a pissed off teenage girl.”

“Touché,” I chuckle as I follow her inside.

We both stop at the door to the shop and she uses her key to unlock the door. She pulls it open but stops me from going in. “Under no circumstances is Edge to know that I let you in.”

I tilt my head like a dog. “Why?”

“Because once you inevitably piss him off, I don’t need him being mad at me for letting you in. You’re on your own buddy,” she quips.
