The Gentleman Biker Chapter 60: GABRIEL
"Garrett, send a team to the hospital.""On it." He left the room to go take care of that while Lyon and Mancini made some calls of their own. Everyone was in fast mode now that we had more to go on, but one thing tortured me as I tried to keep up. He said he'd found her himself; what does that mean? A cold finger of dread ran down my spine at what those words could mean. I was more worried about that than I was about the man who'd entered her mother's room at the hospital since there didn't seem to be any danger there. All the stranger did was sit and watch her, so I got the feeling that maybe he was a friend, someone she knew. But how did he know she was there? And what, if anything, did he have to do with what was going on with Silla? Who is he? Where did he come from? And why had neither woman ever mentioned him?I watched him leave on the screen, his face still hidden beneath the cap, but with the technology we had to work with, it shouldn't take much to find him with what littl

"One more thing before I go. Don't cry alone again without me there to comfort you." I didn't wait around for her response but left after one last look at her; all snuggled up in bed. She looked so small there, and for a moment, it gave me pause. How the hell does someone like me handle something that delicate? The thought, instead of swaying me, only made me want. Time to get the hell out of there and away from her before my thoughts get ahead of me.I stood outside her bedroom door, trying to outwait the shaking in my hands. What had I just done? I hadn't meant for things to go that far when I went in there; my intentions were only to make sure that she was okay. Now I'm not sure how I feel about this new development. Sure I do; I'm scared shitless. There are about a million reasons why I shouldn't be doing this, a thousand things that could go wrong, and I imagined all of them. Still, something in me knew that there was no way to go back over the line we'd just crossed without hurt
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 62: SILLA
"Change!" That's the greeting I got when I met him on the stairs landing as soon as I walked out of the bedroom. I guess he'd left sometime before I woke up to go back to his room to get cleaned up. Since I now saw him through new eyes, his beauty was not lost on me. Not that he wasn't always hot, but now there was an added sparkle in his eyes that I hadn't noticed before.I also saw his gruffness in a whole new light. It no longer seemed to come from a place of annoyance, at least it hadn't last night when he ordered me to go back to sleep before hauling me into his arms. But now, I'm back to being unsure. Did he even remember what we'd said to each other last night? His attitude seemed completely different from the man who'd whispered such sweet nothings to me in the dark. The man who'd held me in his arms with such loving care all night.Nope, he was back to being his surly self. No good morning, how are you? No sweet smile, not even a kiss hello. I don't think he even looked at me
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 63: GABRIEL
I heard her footsteps coming towards the door I'd left open. I knew it was her because beyond my training that keeps me aware of my surroundings at all times; I'd somehow become attuned to her every movement. Not for nothing, but I've spent a good portion of the day, more than I could spare in fact, trying to figure out why her.She hadn't done anything earth-shattering, we've barely spoken two sentences to each other, but from the first time I laid eyes on her, she'd burrowed in, deep under my skin. I thought love called for more than that. That there was some kind of build-up to the main event. That's how I've always been able to protect myself from falling victim in the past.I had in mind the kind of woman I'd choose to settle down with somewhere down the line in the very distant future. I don't have an ideal woman, I don't believe in it, but for sure, I expected to be caught by more than a beautiful face. I can't even say that that's all there is to it either because the truth is,
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 64: SILLA
I lived off of that cute little nickname for a good five minutes, letting the pleasure wash over me as I imagined myself as Bambi with the big eyes. Then I wondered if he saw me as an adorable little kid and let that gnaw away at me for the next five. I need a life. These last few weeks of inertia have taken their toll, obviously, and my brain has been turned into mush.We drove around in silence for the next little while, and I don't think I breathed even once in that time. And though my head was turned to the window as if taking in the passing scenery, I couldn't recall a single sight if my life depended on it. I was very pleased, though, that he'd taken time out of his busy schedule just to drive me around, probably feeling guilty for shooting down my every request.I thought at this stage in a relationship, the girl is supposed to get her way in all things. At least that's what it looks like with Chantal and her Wolf. As slick as those two are about sneaking around, I've been privy
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 65: SILLA
It was nice driving around in silence with my hand held safely in his as we both got lost in our own thoughts, my heart still warm from his promise. Surely that means there will be a tomorrow for us. I felt giddy all of a sudden as my mind conjured up any number of escapades, some of them X-rated.It's the being closed up for so long, with newfound freedom just beyond the horizon just waiting to break out, that has turned me into a brazen hussy, I'm sure, but more and more lately, my mind has taken to drifting off into the gutter especially now that he's sleeping in my bed. If only I could do the things that Chantal keeps instigating me to; that girl.Even though I know that she herself is still quite the virgin, to hear her talk, you'd think she'd had ten kids and could run any brothel on the Las Vegas strip. The stories she likes to regale me with about her and Wolf's escapades are enough to make me jump poor Gabriel on sight, but according to her, I might have to make the first move
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 66: GABRIEL
"Bruh, damn, what the fuck? A goat?" Lyon shook his head and sneered at me with scorn. "You couldn't keep your balls for at least a month?""Shut up, and it's a sheep, for your information.""Same thing. What the hell are you doing with it now?"I should probably feel embarrassed about the situation, but I'm too tired to give a good damn. Silla and her damn sheep had taken what little energy I had left with their sheer existence. I'm not sure which out of the two of them is the bigger headache.I'd opened a door I hadn't even known existed by letting her bring the lamb home. I'd forgotten all about her testing me and am still not sure that that's what's going on here, but I'm pretty sure some of the stuff she'd done this evening was to push my limits."Silla's asleep, and the damn thing won't stop crying." I'd escaped to the office late at night, thinking no one else would be there, but I'd forgotten what I'd learned about these guys' work ethic. Lyon, for all that he's never served, i
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 67: GABRIEL
Thankfully they turned their attention back to work and left me the hell alone so I could focus. I was so focused that I didn't even realize it when they left one by one. Even the lamb had fallen asleep in my lap after chewing through everything within its reach.The place felt emptier than usual and way too quiet, which was always my preference in the past. It took me a second to realize what the problem was; I missed her incessant chatter. Instead of working, I sat there staring blankly at the screen with a stupid grin on my face as I recalled her antics with her new pet.She's such a delightful mix of alluring siren and bashful virgin. One seducing me while the other calls forth every protective instinct I have.It's almost scary how much I'd changed for her, or maybe that's not the right way to think of it, but see it more as she's brought out things in me I didn't know were there. I for damn sure never expected that I'd one day find such pleasure in something as silly as watching

The Gentleman Biker Chapter 174: GABRIEL
This is insane. I thought I had it under control, but I didn’t expect the night to be like this. It wasn’t because of all the people that were here in the arena, though it had to be at full capacity, which was around two hundred and fifty thousand people, give or take about ten. No, what was bothering the hell out of me was the fact that my girl was in the middle of this shit. I didn’t think it would bother me this much, especially since I knew that there was no danger here, that the whole tunnel thing was the only thing going on, and the other players had already been taken down, but I couldn’t shake it off. I had this feeling like the feeling you get when someone has you in their crosshairs, but you don’t know which direction they’re in. It could be a case of transferred anxiety because Lyon has been ranting and raving since he got here about some shit going down. It was hell trying to hide my thoughts and feelings from Silla, who was happier than I’d ever seen her. Part
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 173: GABRIEL
Lieutenant Morgan was more excited about the tickets than even I expected. She was so distracted that that excitement led to her being the one who invited me to tour the tunnels. I didn’t have to use my well-rehearsed speech to talk her into anything. It was so easy I almost grew suspicious until I remembered that this was just like the woman I know. She had no reason to suspect me of anything, and with my clearance, she’d see no issue letting me on site. But as we walked and talked, I couldn’t shake the feeling that someone else seemed to know her as well. Namely Lyon’s daughter. But how was that possible? I’m pretty sure the kid never met her in the flesh. While she talked about how excited her kid was going to be I was looking around for anything that would give any indication that there was more going on here and saw nothing. Not that I didn’t believe Lyon, I did, but that’s how good the operation was. We hopped into a golf cart, and she drove deeper into the tunne
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 172: GABRIEL
“Where did you go? Did you have fun?” I tried not to sound too much like I was grilling her, but Flanagan and Quinn had me a bit paranoid with the things they’d said about their women and the shit they got up to. Not that I expect Silla to do any of those things; my little innocent is too sheltered for that. But there are other issues at hand. Like the fact that I’d only just started to convince myself that with Sam out of the picture, she was no longer in any danger, plus the fact that the mess I’d just waded through was geared toward kids, so she wasn’t in any real danger here. But I don’t know why I get the feeling that the guys are holding something back. I think Lyon might have told them to ease me into it, which begs the question of just how much worse it can get. I still have no idea what it is that they want me to do in the tunnels or even if I’d actually get the chance. Just because I’m military doesn’t mean they’ll roll out the red carpet, especially if they’re using
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 171: GABRIEL
I guess Flanagan was wrong after all because the places the women drove to just seemed to be the usual tourist traps. They did take a little detour on the way back, but it seemed to be a more scenic route, something anyone might do when visiting a new place. It can’t be overlooked the fact that the mountains here are some of the most beautiful in the country. “I guess they did only go for a joyride after all.” I made the distinction out loud when I saw Flanagan and Quinn mapping the route they’d taken. “It’s good that you think that.” “What do you mean?” “Not sure yet; I’ll let you know when we figure out what they’re up to. I have to get this information to Lyon.” He reached for his phone while I went back to what I was doing, feeling at ease for the first time in hours since she left. Every once in a while, one of my boys would make a sound of disgust from across the room, but since I’d already given them the option to bow out, which they all refused, I saw it a

“What’s wrong boss? Something bothering you?” Mace asked me quietly as I watched the door where the women had just left. “No, it’s not that.” I couldn’t give him an answer because I didn’t know what it was that was making me twitchy about the whole thing. I wasn’t sure if it was my natural sixth sense or my new overprotectiveness where she was concerned. It didn’t help that Lyon’s men didn’t look too settled either at the idea of their women going joyriding in the middle of an Op. Maybe that was it. This whole situation has left me feeling more bereft than my first firefight. I’d rather dodge bullets in the desert than deal with this evil shit that I’d been pouring over for the last few hours. How anyone could deal with this shit day in and day out and not lose part of themselves is beyond me. It's only been a few hours, and my skin is already starting to crawl. Now, I’ve always known that men can be evil monsters; I’ve seen some of the worst they can do to each other, or
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 169: Mouth
Shit, blast and damn. How do I leave her behind without hurting her feelings? She’s so dang innocent; I was sure a rebuff, though not meant to be one, would hurt her feelings. Was I ever this innocent? No, but some of my new sisters used to be when we first met, so I know the signs. I was thinking hard about a plausible excuse when she clapped her hands across her mouth and looked at me like she’d committed a crime.“Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean… I just got so relaxed with you two; it’s like we’ve known each other forever. I didn’t mean to overstep; I’ll just go back to the room and leave you two alone.” She rambled off the words before starting to walk away, and both Kelly and I had to stop her. Okay, this one might be more sheltered than the others, and it almost broke my heart. Over the last couple of years, I’d come to recognize the signs of past trauma in women, and she had a boatload. “No, you didn’t overstep. I was just worried about how your man would r
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 168: GABRIEL
This is happening. Things have been moving really fast in the last few days and the honeymoon was over. True to his word, Lyon had sent in a crew, or squad as he calls them. Two couples, the men seeming just as anxious as I was, having their women close to this shit. I wasn’t sure how we were supposed to do this, keeping the women in the dark, I mean. But I needn’t have worried because Quinn and Shane knew exactly what they were doing when it came to that part of the Op. Silla, I was happy to see, was only too happy to make two new friends, and these women must’ve taken classes or something because they had her hooked in no time at all. I’d barely seen her interactions with Chantal back at the house, but it was good to see that she played well with others. There was no cattiness among these women and I couldn’t help but notice the difference between these two, Arianna and Kelly and Nikki. It’s been days since I even thought about her, but I guess I figured one headach
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 167: GABRIEL
I looked these people up when I had a chance, and I have to say, Lyon and his kid do get around. I wouldn't have pegged him for the type, but then again, what do I know? Silla was all but jumping out of her skin with excitement ever since I mentioned their names, but I have to count that as a plus since it kept her even more in the dark about what was really going on. I brought my boys up to speed on things later that night once she'd knocked herself out after playing Rodeo Queen on my dick. At least the news knocked the disrespectful smirks off my team's faces, and they switched gears from sticking their noses in my shit and got down to the business we were there for. "I'm only telling you now because it's been finalized on their end. When Lyon called earlier, it was just an idea they were playing around with, but now, apparently, it's a done deal. Here's the thing…" I filled them in on what Lyon had shared in his latest phone call, i.e., the fact that this Ryder person's past con
The Gentleman Biker Chapter 166: Gabriel
Penance, it has got to be. I can't come up with any other reason for me to be dealing with this mess right now. I've always prided myself on being at the top of my game in any given situation, but this shit has thrown me for a loop. For what has got to be the first time in my adult life, I find myself in a situation that I'm not completely in control of. Right now, I should be focused on the job; nothing is more important than that, at least there didn't used to be. But now, even with the danger I was sure was here, given the Intel we'd collected so far, all I could think about was her. And not even in a sexual, I wanna jump her bones every time I see her kind of way, but more like how can I put her in my pocket and keep her safely away from all this shit type of thing. It's not something I expected, not to this degree anyway, and no one ever told me that these things could happen, and if they had, I'd have said not to me. But I am living it, so it's real, and that brings me back t
