The Heaven Hill Series Chapter 292
Dalton pulled into the gas station at the corner of Porter Pike and Louisville Road for three reasons. He needed gas, he desperately wanted a cigarette, and he was nervous as hell to ask Liam for a leave of absence from Heaven Hill. Truth be told, he was wavering, wondering if it was really the smartest decision he'd ever made.Getting off his bike, he stuck his debit card in the gas pump, selected his fuel grade, and filled up. Fuck, his shoulders were tight; hell, his whole body was tight. He had no idea what he was doing, all he knew was worry. Worry that everything could be pulled from his hands before he even got a chance to enjoy it. That must be what other men waxed poetic about; why they protected the women they loved with their lives. Thinking of losing them was scary, pushing them away was dumb, but watching them grow to hate you? He rubbed his chest. That hurt like a motherfucker.The gas pump kicked into the off position as he finished topping the tank. He hung up the n

Dalton tapped a beat that only he heard against his jean-clad thigh. Nerves caused his stomach to clench and a slight sheen of sweat to pop out on his forehead. He'd been waiting for what felt like a year to get a one-on-one meeting with Liam. While their pres was accommodating, times had been busy, and he hadn't wanted to press his luck. Especially because of what he wanted to ask. Liam could easily say no, and he hoped being patient would get him some leeway with the man so many of them looked up to. He needed this favor like he needed his next cigarette. If he had any hope at all of helping his uncle, he needed time, and right now, that was a precious commodity.The shop was busier now than it had ever been, fuck what his dad thought. Their client base was strong, and they'd been getting by legitimately for a long time. They didn't have to have their hands in everything because they made damn good money doing things their own way."Dalton, c'mon in." Liam walked through the club
The Heaven Hill Series Chapter 294
There were few times in her life when her dad had sent her a text that said…Dinner tonight. Don't miss it.Usually it was when he or someone else had an announcement, or it was because he was missing his nuclear familial unit. As far as she knew, nobody had an announcement, so it had to be that he was missing everybody. The older he got, the more sentimental he got. Mandy had to admit, she was missing her family too.In order to keep her secret, she'd withdrawn herself from everyone, because she was so scared of someone finding out or slipping up and telling them. Doc Jones had told her it was a self-preservation technique. If she didn't want to answer questions, the easiest thing to do was avoid the people who would ask them. It was a shitty way to be, and she knew it, but right now peace of mind was the most important thing to her.There hadn't been any other time she could remember when she kept this kind of information from her family, but she wasn't yet sure how she and D

Tired didn't even begin to cover the pure emotional and physical exhaustion Dalton felt. Last night he and Deacon had gone all over creation looking for Samuel, but had come up empty-handed. He was sick of this. All he wanted was to spend his nights and days in the company of the woman he loved, but he knew it was a danger he couldn't risk. Today, he was going to some of the places he knew Samuel liked to frequent in Warren County. But damn if he wasn't frustrated.For a year, he'd noticed changes in his uncle. He'd been secretive about the places he went late at night, and he always had a wad of cash on him. For a while, Dalton thought he had a girlfriend and was waiting until the time was right to introduce her. Eventually though, the truth had come to light. In the end, it'd taken him almost four months to figure out what the fuck was going on. It wasn't until he'd heard the conversation in the hallway of Wet Wanda's that he'd known for sure his uncle was in trouble. Since that da

She'd looked beautiful. Pregnancy agreed with her in a lot of ways. Even though he had seen the tension around her face, he'd also noticed the way her T-shirt pulled tight against her breasts, the way her skin glowed in the sun. Dalton wanted nothing more than to follow her as she'd given up her place in the drive-thru line. His hands ached to touch her, his ears wanted to hear her voice again. It'd been weeks since he'd heard her speak, longer than that since he'd touched her. He physically ached with the wanting.Last night when he'd gotten back into town, a part of him had wanted to be as close to her as he could be. With the dark of night covering him, he'd driven over to her apartment building and watched her window for hours. He'd relived moments they'd shared together in his mind. Memories were the only things that kept him going these days. They kept his head above water and the depression at bay because he was damn tired of wanting something he couldn't have.There was an

Dalton was vibrating with fury as he pulled up to the trailer on the lake. The dwelling had seen much better days, but it still provided him with shelter whenever he needed it. It had been the only home he'd known as a young kid, and it was one of the most important places in his memory bank. As they always did, memories assaulted him of that night he and Mandy had sealed the deal in this trailer. She'd given herself over to him and told him he was good enough for her.What a crock of shit those words had ended up being. He'd done the one thing he'd promised himself he'd never do. He disappointed her, not been the man she needed, and he had a suspicion that before this was said and done, he'd never get the chance to be that man again. He didn't deserve the chance. He knew that. There was no telling what he'd have to do to help the man who'd helped him as a kid. He knew his days were numbered, expected he'd go down in a blaze of glory, and he was okay with that.Taking the steps two

Mandy laughed, bringing her arms around her stomach. "What did you tell him?" she asked Tatum, still giggling. Her younger sister was something else. She'd gotten the best parts of them all; feisty, spicy, head-strong, and fiercely loyal. Mandy noticed for one of the first times how grown-up she looked. Gone was the shoulder-length bob cut she'd worn for years. In its place was longer hair, worn curled, as silky looking as anything that could be done in a salon. The makeup was darker now too, more professionally done, in colors that suited her. Looking at her fingernails, Mandy also noticed Tatum sported a manicure—something she wouldn't have been caught dead having a few years ago. It wouldn't be long until Tatum would be ready to leave the nest and maybe bring home a man of her own.Mandy could remember being her age and being so in love with Dalton she couldn't see straight. Not much had changed. Except now that love was twisted up in anger, and she hoped at some point she could h
The Heaven Hill Series Chapter 299
Dalton wasn't sure what he was doing here. He hadn't even realized this was where he'd decided to come until he'd parked his bike in the extra space next to Mandy's car. His bike had chosen its own way there, and it had gone home. He was as much a nomad as his brother these days. That was becoming more clear to him every single day of his life. But this woman, she represented so much of what he needed in his life. She was the air he needed to expand his lungs, the rest he needed at night, and the blood he needed pouring through his veins.He was so fucking tired. Tired of worrying about other people, denying his feelings, and most of all, tired of lying to himself. He needed her like he needed his next breath. Denying their need of each other was doing nothing but hurting them, and for one night he didn't want to hurt anymore. He was raw after talking to Samuel and trying to figure out how they were going to fix the problem he'd dragged all of them into.More than anything, he need
