CaliTruth mumbled the words “Will you marry me.” But I heard him clearly. Sure he had done a lot of swearing before he had said them and his fist was bloody where he had pounded on poor Young Blood for no reason. But the words had left his mouth. “Truth.” It wasn’t exactly the proposal of my dreams but it was a proposal. One that I wasn’t expecting. I didn’t even know what to say.Truth was everything I wanted in a man. But we had only been together for a few months. It was less than a year since he had walked in on me getting my ass tattooed and changed the direction of my whole life.I had never regretted that day. Not once. Not even when things had gone tits up. But we hadn’t even discussed getting married.I wanted to say yes. I really did but I couldn’t help but worry about why he was asking me. Now in Cooks of all places.“Truth you don’t have to do this… if it’s because of the baby then….” he was still down on his knees in front of me. Beer and god knows what else staining th
Fender Valentine’s Day was by far the worst day of the year. All those loved up couples. All that fake romance and phoney sentiments. What was worse was that more and more of the younger club members were pairing off, settling down. Making fucking fools of themselves over women and ruining their damn lives.My own son had started it by chasing after a woman he should have known to leave well enough alone. Sure Avery was the mother of his kid but what did that actually matter in this day and age?Hell, I probably had a dozen kids scattered around that I didn’t even know about. But no my son was all about his new family life. And Avery was taking him for a ride. I could tell. Not that Ruin would ever listen to me about it. When it came to her he had blinkers on. She was the only thing he saw.And then there was Truth. At least Cali was useful to the club. But she was still a woman who had one of my most trusted riders wrapped around her little finger. All of them were damn fools. W
Blair“You look flipping fantastic.” I linked my arms through that of my best friends as she leads us towards the non-descript, a run down bar in the middle of an equally run down street. My brother Bennet bringing up the rear. Like an overgrown wanna be bodyguard.Not that he had a chance against men like Chelsea’s dad. Now that was a man who knew how to handle himself. It seeped out of his pores. The pure masculine toxicity of him. And he wasn’t bad looking for an old guy either.I had been with worse. Hell, I had daddy issues and everyone knew it. But what could I say, I liked that Chelsea’s dad liked what he saw when he looked at me.He hadn’t exactly been subtle about it. I liked it when they lusted after me. When they kept looking at my tits like they wanted to take a bite. It was one of the reasons I had them done, to begin with. Unlike many of the older men I had been with, I was betting Fender wouldn’t just be just some beer-bellied slob pounding away on top of me. He loo
Fender She was a little girl playing a very dangerous game with me. But I could tell by her face that she was willing to take this as far as I wanted to take it. Which was all the way. If she was willing to give up the goods so easily then I wasn’t about to tell her no. I was a red-blooded man after all. And she was a very willing, very attractive young woman. And the pussy that had gripped my finger had been tight and wet. I wasn’t about to say no to that. Not tonight. Hell, not ever. But I did want to see how far I could push her. Would she tell me no in the end? We would have to finish the game and wait and see. I was betting not. Blair was a good time girl. My life was full of them. Every single club girl was like it. Out for the thrill of fucking a dangerous man. Blair was no different. She just comes from a more affluent family. A hoe was a hoe though, it didn’t matter if they were born with a silver spoon in their mouth or not. “Strip,” I ordered her before I had even p
Blair Anger bubbled up as I yanked the dress up, tying the halter around my neck before letting my long hair fall back down my back. My eyes stung with tears. I knew they wouldn’t fall because I just wasn’t the crying type. But I had never been so humiliated in my entire life.Fender had used me like I was nothing more than a piece of meat, leaving me naked and bare for everyone to see.It didn’t matter that I had wanted to fuck him or more specifically wanted him to fuck me. I was humiliated. No man in my entire Nineteen years had ever said no to me when I offered him seconds. I was good at sex. Better than good. I had been told on numerous occasions that I was phenomenal. And yet Chelsea’s dad had turned me down flat. Like whatever had just happened between us was the end of it. It wasn’t.I would say when we were finished. Not him.I always called the shots. “What the fuck do you think you are looking at?” I growled to the sea of eager Male faces.No one answered, one laughed
FenderI caught up with Gemma before she got back to the bar, my hand came down hard on her shoulder and I span her around. Making her crash into my chest.“Stop Gem.” My voice came out ragged. Out of breath like I had been running. “What the hell is your problem tonight?”Finally, her black-rimmed eyes rose to meet mine. “You’re my problem Fender. You’re everyone’s problem.”The words seemed to tear their way out of her throat. “The way you humiliated Chelsea tonight. The way you are continuously humiliating Ruin. Your a fucking shitty excuse for a human being Fender and an even worse dad.”My hand tightened on her arm, my fingers digging into her skin. It would leave a mark but I just didn’t care. Who the fuck did she think she was? Talking to me like that? “Careful now woman.” The warning in my tone was clear.“No fender I won’t be careful. Someone needs to tell you. You are a mess. Fucking your daughters friend in front of your kids … that isn’t normal. The fact you think it’s
RuinAvery was going to kill me. I knew it how late I was to pick her up. I was just hoping that she would understand my reason why. Club business sometimes ran over. Surely she of all people would understand that. She had been born into the club after all.So I was hoping she wouldn’t be too mad at me. I wanted tonight to be special. It was our first valentines night together after all. It was still crazy to me, this was our first Valentine’s Day together and yet we had a teenage son together. I had missed out on so much of their lives and it was something I had to deal with every single day. The fact that I was an outsider in their lives.I tried to get us to become a family. Because that’s exactly what I wanted us to be. A normal non-dysfunctional family. The opposite to what she had had with her psychotic but now dead ex-husband and different to the hell hole family life I had grown up with. But so far she was dragging her feet. Part of me could understand her hesitation, even i
Avery The interior was dark, candlelight flickering in the centre of each table. I didn’t know how Ruin had found this place but I was glad he had. It screamed romance and the smell of food was making my mouth water. He had done so well, better than I ever expected.The only thing that spoilt it was the fact he kept bringing up commitment. Of me being his old lady. It wasn’t even that I didn’t want to.I was so in love with him, he would probably run screaming if he ever realised how much. It wasn’t even the commitment. In my head, we were in a committed relationship. No, it was the underlying fear that he would leave me. That this thing between us was going to just be a moment for him. I was waiting for the day that Ruin got sick of my insecurities when he realised that committing to a woman with a kid, even if the kid was his. Wasn’t what he wanted.I wouldn’t be able to deal with that day if I jumped in with both feet. I wouldn’t be able to protect my heart. Or Parker’s.The mo
