“Yup, you’re definitely something,” I agreed.
Slick winked and took another bite of chicken. “This I can see myself doing forever,” he murmured as he relaxed on an elbow.
Funny enough, despite the fact I’d only met him yesterday, I could envision the same.
Drake
He picked up his phone, not paying attention to who was calling, as he gazed at a spreadsheet in front of him.
“Drake, any of your guys near Black Hawk?” a woman asked him, and Drake took a few moments to pin the voice down.
“Dana, what’s happening?” he questioned, hearing the urgency in her tone.
“Jace and Arturo are pinned down in Black Hawk. Dylan has already left with Davies, and they’re calling for back-up. They’re on Quarry Road. They were watching a warehouse there. Jace reported at least ten members of Venomous Fangs have opened fire on them.” Dana’s soft voice was harsh with worry.
“I’ll call Rage and get Axel on the allies. If anyone’s close, we’ll ride. I’m hitting my bike now. Tell Dylan,” Drake replied, rising to his feet.
“Thank you, please hurry. Jace and Arturo aren’t heavily armed. It was an information-gathering mission,” Dana begged.
“Let me get off the phone and set Axel in motion.” Drake cut the call.
He bolted from his office and found Axel in the rec room.
“Call Rage first and then the allies.” He paused. “Hawthorne’s has two men in Quarry Road, Black Hawk. There are some warehouses there. They were watching them. At least ten Fangs have Jace and Arturo pinned down,” Drake announced as he hurried past.
Axel lumbered to his feet and was moving to his office by the time Drake flew through the doors.
Slick
He was loving this. Good food, great conversation, and a pretty girl. Summer was ticking all his boxes. Which is why when his mobile pinged, he glowered at it. What now? Couldn’the have one fuckin’ lunch without someone needing him for something. He ignored it, and then it sounded again.
“Sorry, honey, looks like this might be urgent,” Slick murmured as he pulled his phone out. He willed his face not to respond to the message on it as he read it twice and shoved it away. “Summer, an emergency’s come up, one of my brothers. I’m sorry, sweetness, but I need to cut this short.” Slick held regret in his voice.
“Is this the thing women do on bad dates when they have a friend call them away?” Summer asked sweetly and nibbled her lip.
His cock twitched. He wanted to nibble that lip. “No honey, honest, this is an emergency. All the brothers are being called in,” Slick replied, cupping her cheek.
Summer gazed into his eyes. “It’s okay if it is that thing, I guess I am not exciting enough for someone like you,” she muttered, her gaze lowering.
Slick felt like he’d been hit with a sledgehammer. “Like me?”
“All masculine and alpha. I’m rather a mouse,” Summer replied.
Slick saw the self-doubts and cursed. Talk about bad timing.
“Forget that bullshit. You’re perfect. And I am going to spend my days making sure you know it. This is a genuine emergency. Can we do dinner tonight?”
Summer wanted to say yes. Slick could see it on her face, and then a shadow crossed it, and she shook her head.
“I can’t, Slick; I’m sorry,” she whispered.
“Then I’ll bring breakfast tomorrow morning and lunch, too,” Slick said, getting to his knees.
Summer bit her lip again, and Slick couldn’t stop himself. He leant forward and stole a soft kiss from those rosy, tempting lips. Summer looked shocked and then kissed him softly back. Therewas no tongue action; it was just a gentle peck. But Slick’s cock went rock hard.
“I can taste strawberries,” Slick murmured.
“My lip gloss,” Summer replied.
