Avery

He was avoiding me.

Not ignoring me but definitely avoiding. He kissed my cheek anytime we were in the same room, which wasn’t very often. He was polite but he couldn’t hide the distance in his eyes when he looked at me.

He was gone. I could tell. Whatever he had seen in that room or thought he had seen had changed the way he felt. And it stung. It stung so much it was like a knife carving out my heart. But I couldn’t blame him.

Me having a crazy psychotic ex-husband hadn’t been what he had signed up for. As long as he was there for Parker that’s all that mattered.

Or at least that’s what I kept telling myself as the days passed.

It was worse somehow this awkward politeness between us than anything else I had been through. And then there are the club girls. Girls who I knew I shouldn’t be jealous of that hung off his every word and touched him every chance they got. I hadn’t seen him get freaky with anyone but I wasn’t stupid. I had grown up here so I knew how things worked.

    Truth Tattoos.It was time for another one. It had been time for another one for weeks. My body was covered in them, bright, colourful ones that women loved.My own personal story of violence and death.Sure they were beautiful but wasn’t death beautiful? In its own macabre way?Who was I kidding? Death wasn’t beautiful. I only told myself that so I could sleep at night. I had been telling myself that every day since I had first squeezed a trigger and ended someone’s life. Snuffed them out like a candle flame. That had been during conflict. A war where I wasn’t even sure who my enemy really was.Now I knew who they were. It was a different type of war now, sure, but it was still a battle. Of sorts anyway.Pushing open the heavy door, I scanned the large shop front. My eyes squinting. Usually, this place was a hubbub of activity. The sound of the tattoo gun filling the air with its whirl, but today it was quiet. No one sat in the chair by the window. And there was no sign of the man

    Cali Drumming my fingers on the worn wood of the table by the corner, I let my eyes scan the bar around me. My eyelashes fluttering against my cheeks. The room was almost full. But then that was to be expected on a Friday night. There couldn’t be many places to party in a town like this. Maybe one or two bars at a push. And it seemed like Cooks was the place to be if you were a leather wearing biker or the women that gravitated towards them. I was neither, but I had to admit I liked the atmosphere. I enjoyed watching people I had since I was a child, and there were plenty of people to watch here. Each one of them with their own hidden story for me to untangle. I liked the mystery of it all. I had always been good at reading people ever since I was a child. It was something I prided myself on. Again I drummed my fingers on the wood just inches from my beer. He was late. Glancing at my watch, I frowned. He wasn’t just late; he was really, really late. Over an hour, to be exact.

    TruthSomeone said my name, and my eyes flew open. The woman with the eager mouth instantly forgotten as just for a second, my eyes met those peeking out beneath pinky-purple curls. She looked shocked for just a second, and then she schooled her face into neutral indifference, but I knew she had seen me. My cock, still firmly in the club girls mouth, jumped and twitched. Swelling even more. She made a sound in the back of her throat that told me she thought it was for her. And I wasn’t about to tell her otherwise. No woman, even one as desperate as the one sucking me off, wanted to hear that it was another woman that had gotten you so excited. It was a sure-fire way of getting your dick bit off. And I liked my dick firmly attached.Even more so now that she was here. The bright-haired angel from earlier. I wasn’t even going to question how she knew Gemma. I didn’t really care. “You like that baby?”“Did I say you could stop…” glancing down at her. I felt myself go limp. My cock

    CaliGemma was super lovely, but she sucked at being a hostess. If it hadn’t been for Gent, a name that made me smile. The same man who had been tattooing my ass, we wouldn’t have gotten back to her tiny apartment. Or she would have tried to drive, and we would have ended up wrapped around a tree or in a ditch somewhere. ”Gem?” I said her name quietly from her half-open bedroom door. In answer, she turned, snoring softly as she rolled over. It was useless. She wasn’t going to wake up. I had been trying on and off for the last half hour. Not that I could blame her. She was going to have one killer hangover when she finally opened her eyes. The girl could seriously put back shots.She couldn’t handle them, but she could put them back. Still, I couldn’t wait. I didn’t want to miss my bus. I would just have to leave without a real thank you and goodbye.,I had expected a lot of things coming here, but her kindness hadn’t been one of them. It was unexpectedly sweet. And I hated leaving

    Truth“What do you want to do now?” Leaning across the table, I let my eyes flick down her body. I wanted her to be clear on what I wanted to do next, but I was going to take a leaf out of Gent’s book and be a gentleman and let her make the next move. It didn’t mean that I didn’t want her to know that my ultimate goal was to get her under me.Or on top of me.Either way was fine by me. Better than fine, actually. Even the thought made my dick twitch in my jeans.She cocked her head to the side as if she was studying me. The smallest of teasing smiles played at the corners of her mouth. “I thought you were meant to be showing me a good time?”I blew out a breath. My cheeks puffing and eyed her with new interest. She was going to keep me on my toes. I could already see it. “Oh, I would be showing you a fucking amazing time right here and now if I thought I could get away with it.” I lowered my voice, leaning over the table slightly. I crooked my finger at her. My eyes crinkled as she s

    CaliHe was sweet, in a darkly dangerous way. At least he was sweet to me. Sweet and attentive. But there was another side of him, I was sure of it. A darker side that I caught glimpses of when he spoke to his friends. Truth was a very confusing man.Multifaceted, I was betting you could know him for years and not really know him at all. Not that I could ever scratch the surface. I only had until Monday. Not enough time to learn all his secrets. And I was betting there were a lot of them. “You daydreaming about me beautiful?” His fingers brushed over my arm, a feather-light touch that instantly caused goosebumps to erupt. Blinking, I turned my face up to him. A smile playing over my lips. “Sorry, I zoned out there for a minute, didn’t I?” I hadn’t heard a thing he had been saying for the last few minutes. Not one single word.“And missed all my best chat up lines.” He joked easily, and I laughed. His fingers made another pass up my arm, and I had to force myself to concentrate on hi

    TruthI did need to get her out of here. And out of that tiny mini skirt. All I could think of was how round her ass had looked framed by the emerald green thong when I had first seen her. I wanted to know what underwear she was wearing tonight. Would it be a thong again or something more modest? Not that it mattered to me. I was going to take a bite out of that peachy ass no matter how she had covered it. I just had to sort out some business first.Glancing behind me, I studied her quickly. Relieved to find her exactly where I had left her. My cut at the back of her chair was a clear warning to anyone who had thought about making a move. “You doing ok there, brother?” Wicked, my brother glanced up from his pint to study me. His face was serious, but he couldn’t keep the smirk that was tugging up the corners of his mouth. “Or have you crashed and burned again?”Gent had obviously told him the story.Assholes.The pair of them. “Of course, I haven’t,” I smirked right back at him. “S

    Cali“I don’t know how to…” I trailed off as I stared at the bike in front of the bar. It was one of several parked there. All large with shiny chrome. They were looked after. Very well looked after. They looked more well cared for then anything else on this street.Truth turned. His eyebrows raised. “You don’t know how to ride?” The corners of his mouth quirked upwards. “But your shirt…” the innuendo was evident in his teasing tone. I blushed. “I was hoping you were a pro…”My eyes narrowed.“Shit, I didn’t mean for it to come out sounding like that.” Truth back-peddled quickly. Reaching for me, he wrapped his arms around my shoulders. “I was just teasing.”“I know.” “Good and to answer your question. You just get on and hold on tight.” Strong fingers tilted my chin upwards so he could catch my eye. “I mean real tight, Cali, you press your body to my back and hold on like your life depends on it. Which it kind of does.”“You have been drinking….” it sat wrong to me that he wanted to

    Gent“Baby.” I stared down at her face as she blinked her eyes awake, confusion making them cloudy.I had sat by her bedside for hours, worrying and not able to do anything but wait. The doctors said she was okay, that her burns were just superficial but I couldn’t help but worry.“Baby, it’s ok.” I smoothed back her frizzy hair. The usual silky strands were singed. She would have to have it all cut off, but it was a small price to pay.Panic ripped across her face as she struggled to sit upright, her eyes wild.“Bobby...”Gently, I forced her back against the pillows. My touch was light, but she hissed in pain anyway. “Gem, look at me. Bobby is safe. Parker got him out.” She visibly relaxed, all the fight leaving her as she relaxed back. Tears sprung up in her eyes. “Thank god. He’s a good boy. Brave. Even when Young….” She trailed off. Her bottom lip started to tremble. “Young Blood?”“Dead. You don’t have to worry about him anymore. You and Bobby are safe.” I wanted her to believe

    GentMy hand raised to those behind me as a lanky figure detached itself from the looming industrial buildings flanking the road that surrounded the gates of the Black Aces compound.Parker was hunkered down, with something clutched in his arms. My heart stuttered to a stop as he looked up at me with wide, terrified eyes. Stepping away from the body at my feet, I rushed over to him. “Parker.” I reached for the baby in his arms, and he shied away like I was a threat. I let my hand fall to my side as Ruin came up. His face troubled.“Hey, son, it’s ok. You're safe now.”Finally, recognition flickered to life in Parker’s eyes. “Ruin?”Ruin folded the boy into his arms. “Right here, Parker. Right here. You’re safe now, I promise. Give the baby to his dad. Are you hurt?” Ruin was talking in a rush of words. But somehow, Parker understood them. Bobby was passed over to me, and I wasted no time in checking over his tiny frame. He looked unharmed, but I was still going to make Young Blood h

    GemmaThe sound of a gunshot echoed from the darkness, making me jump. In my arms, Bobby let out a wail. I clutched him closer to my chest. My hands reached up to cover his tiny little ears.“It’s ok, it’s ok.” I wasn’t sure who I was speaking to. Him or me. But it was a mantra I kept mumbling in the back of Young Blood’s car.I had expected him to take us out of town and fast when he forced us from my tiny flat. So it was a surprise when he pulled up in front of the Black Aces compound.The man on the gate, someone I didn’t recognise, had seen the cut on Young Blood’s back and waved him forward with a friendly smile. Just one brother welcoming another. He didn’t see the gun until too late. Young Blood shot him without warning. There was no other sound but that loud boom. It echoed in the empty road. But it gave me hope. Surely someone in the clubhouse would have heard it. They would have realised that something was happening and they would be ready. They would help Bobby and me. “

    GentSome son of a bitch had set fire to my shop. There was no way it was an accident. The smell of the accelerant was strong even after the fire department had doused the flames. Someone had purposely set fire to my livelihood. The business I had spent years growing. All those memories were gone. And it was my only source of legit income. Income I needed to support my family.Gemma and Bobby were my family. She would be worried about me. I had told her that I would check in as soon as I knew what was going on. With everything going on, I hadn’t managed to text her.Pulling my phone from my pocket, I frowned down at the screen.She hadn’t replied to any of my earlier messages. She hadn’t even opened them. A niggling unease settled in the pit of my stomach. There was no reason for it, but I couldn’t deny it.“You have insurance, don’t you?” Truth had obviously misunderstood the look on my face. “Yeah, of course.” “Then why do you suddenly look constipated?” As usual, nothing much g

    Gent“Fuck.” Gent moved quickly. Using his much wider body to shield me from view. Not that it mattered now, they had all seen. We must have been so engrossed in each other that we hadn’t even heard them arrive, let alone knock on the door and make their way into the garden when we didn’t answer. “Get dressed.” His fingers closed my blouse over my naked chests. It didn’t seem to matter to him that his jeans were around his ankles and his bare ass on display. Gent thought about me first. Just like a gentleman. His lips brushed over mine, and for a second, I forgot the audience we had in the garden as I wrapped my arms around his neck. Someone outside wolf-whistled loudly, and I ducked my head into his chest as he laughed. “Dressed, Gem.”He stood there as I righted my clothes, his eyes never leaving me. And it was only when I had pulled my panties into place under my skirt that he finally turned. “You guys are assholes.” With a sigh, he unlocked the kitchen door. Letting them all f

    GemmaI now knew why they called him Gentleman, and it had nothing to do with his almost old fashioned respect for women. Although I was pretty sure that had a lot to do with it.No, Gentleman was called Gentleman because he always made a woman cum, numerous times in my case. “You look lost in thought?”His voice made me jump. Turning in my seat, I let my eyes drift over him. His dark hair was still wet from the shower, his jeans gaping, but it was the bare chest that made my mouth water. I continued to stare at him. What was it about a shirtless man holding a baby that made my ovaries ache?Gent’s smile grew. It was like he could read my thoughts. “See something you like?”I nodded eagerly. “A shirtless man holding a baby? What’s not to like?”“So it could be any man? As long as he was shirtless and holding a baby?” One dark eyebrow wiggled suggestively. Laughing, I tilted my chin. I tried to hide my teasing smile from him. “I think I like you the best, though.”Gent stalked towar

    Gent Gemma tried to hide it. But she was afraid. It wasn’t that she said anything out loud. She didn’t need to. After living with her for so long, I knew that look on her face. When Gemma got frightened, she got fidgety and quiet. And I fucking hated it.Hated that she was scared again. This shit was meant to be over. I had promised her it would be over if we came home. Fucking Young Blood had played us all. Acted like a friend and a brother so he could betray us, and he had made me out to be a liar.I had promised her she would be safe.Shaking my head, I cocked my head to the side. Listening to the quiet sound of Gem singing Bobby to sleep. She couldn’t hold a tune to save her life, but she always did it. “Gem?” Silently I padded to her bedroom. I knew she would be over Bobby’s cot. She would be finishing her song even if the lad was asleep. It was just what she did. Slowly she turned, a small uncertain smile playing over her lips. “Hi.” She whispered. “He’s asleep.” She said i

    GemHe had proposed.With his dick in my mouth, he had bloody proposed. Like I would take him seriously asking at such a moment. Not that I would take him seriously anyway.It was much too soon for that. Even if we had been living together as friends for a year. It wasn’t like it had been anything but a platonic relationship. We were growing closer, and I had feelings for him, but that didn’t mean we should run away and tie the knot. I had a sneaky suspicion it had more to do with the fact that all of his friends were settling down rather than him wanting to spend his life with me.Glancing at him from beneath the curtain of my hair as I wiped down one of the dusty sides in what used to be his tattoo parlour, I studied his face. He was frowning down at something in his hands. Like the wad of crumpled up paper, he was holding held bad news.“Everything ok?” It seemed like an eternity until he smiled at me. A beautiful flash of white against the dark whiskers on his cheeks. “Yeah, ev

    Gent“So you and Gem?” Ruin was trying hard to sound casual. Trying and failing. Slowly I turned to him. “What do you mean?” I knew exactly what he meant. He was worried about me sliding into the role of daddy to his half brother. He also seemed to have forgotten that I was the one who had watched Bobby come into this world. “Rumour has it you two are a couple.” There was no hesitation in his voice this time. “That you have moved in with her.”Moved in? I frowned. Sure, I had spent every night there with her body against mine, driving me insane. But seeing as she wouldn’t let me do anything but kiss her, I wasn’t sure if I could say we were a couple. I wanted to take things to the next level. And she was dragging her heels. Something was holding her back. I just didn’t know what it was. “I stay there sometimes.” I sipped my beer non committedly. Truth was, I didn’t even want it. “That’s all.” None of this was any of their business. It was none of the club’s business what went on b
