I swing the iron and don’t stop until there’s nothing but pulp left.

I don’t feel any better for it.

I haven’t seen my Mother in over a week and I’m too afraid to ask where she’s gone.

By the time we make it back to campus, my bum is numb because Kaiden definitely took the scenic route, stopping to load up on chocolate for the girls, and I wasn’t complaining one bit. My cheeks actually hurt from smiling so much on the back of the bike, and I think I’m officially converted.

Judging by the shit-eating grin on Kaiden’s face, he knows I love it too.

“So, any chance of Saint letting you keep this bike?” I ask him, running my hand over the seat once he’s pulled up outside my old halls of residence and hopped off the back.

“Nah, babygirl. This is Saint’s pride and joy. He’d never part with it.”

My jaw gapes. “He lent you his actual bike?”

“One of them, yeah. But I happen to know this is his favourite.”

“Wow. He must really like you.”

“I think he really likesoneof us, and he’s got no reason to try to impress me.”

I shake my head at Kaiden’s continued insistence that the Hallowed Saint’s Pres has a crush on me for want of a better phrase. He’s probably just not used to people standing up to him. Kaiden seems bemused by the whole thing, and I can’t help but wonder if it were Axel, would he shoot Saint for looking twice at me. I shudder at the thought.

Kaiden holds out the bag of chocolate which he’d stashed down the front of his jacket, and I exchange it for my borrowed helmet which he hangs over the mirror. At least now the leather trousers make sense. That journey would have been hell in a satin dress, even with my thick-soled boots and biker jacket.

“You good?” Kaiden asks.

“Yeah. I should probably head in. Thanks for…well, everything.”

“No need to thank me, babygirl. Just keep the pants and wear them again for me sometime.”

“You’re incorrigible.”

“My dick’s incorrigible,” he retorts with a wink.

I shake my head. “You’re too much.”

“My dick’s too much, you mean.”

“Just stop with the dick jokes, or we’ll be here all day.”

“My dick can go?—”

I silence him by pressing my mouth to his.It’s just a kiss.

Yeah, but a kiss in public where word can get back to Axel.

A kiss is fine. No one died because of a kiss, Odile.

Kaiden immediately capitalises on my moment of weakness and deepens the kiss, getting handsy with my ass. He grinds his pelvis into mine until I’m panting and ready for round two. Someone whistles, causing us to pull apart.

Jeez, we were practically dry humping in broad daylight right in front of the campus dorms for anyone to watch. And judging by the small group of lads standing by the door, watching us intently,anyonewas enjoying a free show. A bit too much.

He grins ruefully at me. Shameless, as always.

“I’ll miss you, babygirl. Take as long as you need, but stay on campus, yeah? And let me know if you’re going out or anything.”

“So I’m answering to you instead of Axel now?” I demand wryly. “Swapping one captor for another?”
