The Gentleman Biker Chapter 68: GABRIEL
It would've been fun to see just how far she'd go, but I'm a bit skeeved out by the fact that she had no idea what she was doing. I extricated myself from her hold and got her settled back against the pillow. "Go back to sleep, baby. Here's your lamb." She grabbed her pet and settled down again, out cold but still holding my hand.I laid next to her long enough to make sure she would stay in bed, and it wasn't long before a new fear crept up on me unannounced. What if she'd walked towards the stairs? Would I have heard her even with the door open? Would she even have known there were stairs there? I guess I have to look up the dangers of sleepwalking now in order to keep her safe.Just one more thing to add to the list that keeps growing now she's mine. I didn't think it was real, the warnings the guys have been giving me. Lyon calls it preparation for things to come when you get tangled up with a female, especially a little innocent like her. The fact that most of those guys seem to h

"Anything?" I spoke into the headset in my ear as I walked through the crowd."No, we're still following these three." Calhoun wasn't here. We were hoping for one last go-round before the big sting. Hoping that maybe he'd lead us to his boss or some other higher up in the organization since they use these things like recruiting centers.A pretty good crowd had turned out for the rally; it looked like most of the town's people were here, with a whole lot of out-of-towners. The sounds and scents of the bikes made me long for mine that had been parked at home now for months. I should've brought it with me, seeing as I was coming to take over a bike club, but it wouldn't have fit the image I was trying to portray.It's still good that I'd done that, though, because some of my dad's guys were still operating under the delusion that I'm nothing more than an educated idiot who doesn't know the first about this kind of life. And then there were the ones with questions, questions we'd overheard

"Where's your boy?" Mancini and I had left the others behind to get back here once we realized what was happening. The question was pretty much rhetorical after overhearing what we had. I had a pretty good idea where he'd be. The same place I would be if I were in his position."I'm pretty sure he went after Calhoun," Garrett answered."And none of you went with him?""Uh!" He looked around at the others."It's not necessary; I'm sure he'll be back soon," Wolf answered, as stoic as ever."Bet!""Having flashbacks of Arizona Lyon?""Stay out of my business, Hanky boy." Though if that Ivy League, military-trained brother pulled off what I did in the desert, he'd gain my respect. Not that he wasn't well on the way there already; the guy is solid as they come, if a little turned around right now, but what perfectly good man doesn't end up that way when he gets tangled up with a female?"Masters, Summers and Mallory took their teams to follow the three we IDed. We'll hear something as soon

It's never a good thing to be in kill mode while stateside. It's never happened before. I've had moments of intense anger, and there were times when I wanted to shoot an idiot or two for being what they are, but always my control would take the upper hand and keep me from going over the line. Not today.That gut-deep fear I'd felt when I realized Calhoun had her in his sights will probably stay with me for another week or so. But that fear was nothing compared to the ice-cold rage that followed as I made my way to his place. He'd come too close; it was him who'd crossed the line, he who put himself in danger of me.I'd been willing to let the law handle it, no matter how much the others poopooed the idea. I saw it just Lyon not trusting anything to do with the government since he's always going on and on about some gripe or the other where they're concerned. Besides, Mancini's wife is a Fed, for crying out loud.So when they jokingly made reference to planting his body like a tree stum

I've never killed another human being in cold blood; that's not my style. I believe in the letter of the law, and due process, at least I always have until roughly a little less than an hour ago. I always found it weak in others to handle things in this way. The renegade, maverick, anarchist, any one of a million things I used to call them.Now I understand. You see, always before, my clients were just that, clients, a job, nothing more. Although I afforded everyone their human rights, it was never personal. Once the job was done, that was it. I never had any interest in their lives beyond that and never looked back.Now someone had gone after what's mine, had come too damn close to her, and I can't let him live. Not when I know what could've happened to her if he'd gotten his filthy hands on her. Just thinking about it, it's all I can do to let him live long enough to give me the information I needed to get out of him.The feeling was so natural it was almost surreal. That killing ins

My legs were shaking when I stood up to go to him, my eyes never leaving his. I was mesmerized, captivated, I think, as I went to him. There was something new in the way he looked at me this time, and a million thoughts went through my head though I couldn't tell you one of them.That all changed, though, when he studied me without speaking for what felt like hours. His eyes flicked over my head while his head didn't move. "Excuse us, Chantal." He reached for my hand and took me from the room. I only had a chance to look back at Chantal questioningly and maybe a silent plea for help before she disappeared from view."My pet...." Not that her presence could save me from whatever he was about to do, which from the looks of it, was nothing good for yours truly."Later!" I got the feeling that talking was not the best thing for me right now, so I kept my lips shut until we reached his room, well, our room now, and he closed the door. I felt like the child who'd been sent to the principal'

That was more anticlimactic than I'd expected it to be. All the way back here, I imagined myself yelling at her loud enough to put the fear of hell in her so that she'd think twice before ever putting herself in danger again. So how did I end up falling into the trap of her eyes once again? The more I fight against what Lyon and the others keep preaching, the more it seems like I'm in a losing battle with myself.Every man is different; at least, that's the argument I keep giving myself whenever they go on one of their spiels about their women and what I have to look forward to. I can't see myself being what they are or what they claim to have become after getting hitched. Why would I change so much because of one little female who barely reaches my shoulder and looks as if she's afraid of me half the damn time?But after this, I think I'm beginning to see some of what they've been claiming in the works, and I'm not sure how to feel about that. I don't need anything or anyone disruptin

I didn't see Gabriel again that night, not even at bedtime, which for some reason, made the whole situation feel worst. It had only been a few nights since I'd started sleeping next to him, but that night, I couldn't get comfortable enough to sleep without the warmth of his body next to mine. I've never been so miserable in my life; not even his scent on his pillow was enough to soothe me.I barely slept a wink because I kept getting up to see if he'd returned feeling empty each time I saw that he wasn't there. The longer that went on, the emptier I felt inside. I've known him only a short while, but already it felt as if I couldn't live without him, and the silence was killing me almost as much as the distance I felt growing between us as time went on. I wanted to go apologize to him wherever he was but was too afraid to face him lest he says something that would hurt my feelings.That feeling of emptiness gnawed away at my insides, and I felt more alone than I ever have before. It fe

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
