“We’re keeping an eye on things, Chels,” Lucky murmurs, soothing a hand up and down my spine. “I’ll talk to the others, and we’ll see if we can’t be more diligent about everything and our surroundings. Okay?”
“Okay.” I nod, release a breath, and lean slightly into him.
Out of the corner of my eye, I glance to the other side of the room feeling eyes on us. I’m not surprised to find Lacey glaring in my direction. Blow and Nines wanted to kick her ass to the curb, but Storm and Meadow both said she probably learned her lesson and place at my hands. Still, they warned her that one fuck up from her and she’s out on her ass. No other chances.
I smirk in her direction and curl deeper into Lucky, tip my head back and smile. “Do you have anything else you have to handle right now?”
Lucky looks at me closely and cocks a brow, giving me that smirk of his. “Not at the moment, what did you have in mind?”
“A ride on the back of your bike and a trip to your house.”
“Let me talk to Nines and Blow about what you said, and we’ll see. I’m not taking chances of something happening to you, but maybe we can head to the house.” He slips both hands down to palm both my ass cheeks. I bite back a groan because I’m still highly sensitive after what he did to me yesterday.
Lucky dips his head down to rest his forehead against mine and murmurs softly for only me to hear, “You and I also need to talk.”
“About what?” The way he said this confuses me.
“I’ll tell you when we’re alone,” he answers, kisses me, and moves back. Curling an arm around my waist as he looks to Nines before asking, “Think Blow’s gonna be a while?”
Nines smirks and shakes his head. “Don’t know, but probably. Still, from what I just heard, I wouldn’t chance it. Sure, nothing’s happened, but no reason to chance it. Not yet at least.”
Damnit.
Lucky nods and pulls me tighter to his side. “Chels and I will be in my room for the time being then. If you need me, bang on the door. You hear noises . . . well . . . stay the fuck out.”
“Fucker, I’m not gonna be the one to knock on your door. I’m gonna go find my own woman and see about taking her to the room and finish what we’d started this morning.”
I can’t help but giggle because Meadow told me how Calyx had interrupted by showing up this morning. He’s still around but was giving Meadow time to finish working on a dress she was making. I’m willing to bet Nines is in for a rude awakening because Daddy Dearest is sticking around to spend more time with his daughter and not leaving them to do what he wants to try and do.
But thankfully, Lucky and I don’t have that problem. My family’s all out in Colorado. I just have to worry about whatever it is Lucky wants to talk to me about first.
CHAPTER16
LUCKY
The time has come, and I’m going to have that talk with Chelsea. I gotta know what’s going on in that head of hers. Seeing the change, I need to find out if she’s on the same page as me. That we’re doing this, and she’s not going to fight me on it.
I don’t want to fight her on it, but I will if it means she stays mine. Now that my head’s out of my ass, I’m not going back to having it the other way.
Leading Chelsea to my room, I let us in and draw her in my arms, tilting down I claim her mouth with mine. My cock jerks, but I can’t give in to what I want right now. I want more than just her body and she’s got to know it. Just like I’ve got to know what the fuck she’s thinking. What the change is in her. It’s driving me nuts because I know it happened at the house . . . after she found out about my mom.
I haven’t talked to her about family, not yet. It’s not something I like to talk about. I love my brother, but my relationship with the others is strained. It’ll stay that way too. Mostly because I refuse to ever falter to their demands. It’s why Luka took over the way he did and became the man he is.
I’m also not some pussy-ass fucker who can’t handle his own shit or take care of what needs to get done.
It’s why, after this conversation, Chelsea and I won’t be having a pussified heart-to-heart again. Doesn’t mean I won’t let her know she’s mine in ways and that she’s it for me, but I’m not gonna do this shit and talk about emotions and seem like a pussy.
Breaking my lips from hers, I let her go and move across the room, putting distance between us. If I don’t, I’ll end up fucking her ahead of having this conversation.
“What did you want to talk to me about?” Chelsea asks, watching me closely.
“You know what,” I tell her, planting my hands on my hips, seeing her eyes take on a glimmer of unease. “At the house, something in you changed. I want to know what it is and why.”
“You wanna elaborate on that a bit? What do you mean something changed in me?”
I don’t miss the way she licks her lips nervously. “Chels, you might not think it, but I know you. I’ve spent plenty of time watching you to figure you out. I know your habits. The way you bite your lip when you’re nervous. You fidget when you’re up to something. You get a smug look on your face when you pull one of your pranks. I’ll also say you get this look of innocence that isn’t innocent at all when you know you’re getting away with something you shouldn’t. You’re also the most stubborn woman I know who has enough sass it leaves me with a permanent hardon for you. Even more, you are care about those around you more than yourself and it hurts you to see them in pain. No matter what type of pain it is.”
“You think you have me all figured out, don’t you?” She scoffs, crosses her arms and in doing so pushes her tits upward.
