"Do you recognize any of these numbers?"

Meredith looked at the numbers that Tyler had written down on a piece of paper the next day, trying to remember the numbers she had used in her investigation. She pointed at one. "This one looks vaguely familiar. They were all disposable prepaids, I'm sure. I had them written down in one of my notebooks. It would be in my desk if I remember correctly."

They went to the room that housed her stuff. She made a beeline for the desk and reached into the bottom drawer, pulling it out of the wood structure. Reaching inside, she engaged a lever and a false bottom opened, revealing some paper work.

"That's pretty hot that your desk drawer has a false bottom," Tyler grinned. "Means you're mysterious and dangerous."

"If only," she giggled.

Going through all the information she had, she pulled out a small black book. "This has all the phone numbers I used. Let's see."

She went through them as he looked over her shoulder. "There," he pointed. "Th

    "Meredith, I'm surprised you called me so soon."The next day she was in Doc Jones' office, breathing deeply and trying to control the emotions that had plagued her all night. "I was too, to be honest with you.""What happened?""You cautioned me about trying to find who did this. You told me that I may not like the answer and that it may bring up other things. I foolishly thought you were just being overly cautious," Meredith explained, tears already coming to her eyes.In the past eighteen hours, she'd tried to stop the emotions. She had tried to stop the crying, but she just couldn't. She couldn't deny the depths of the feelings she had for Tyler and how it had broken her heart that she'd left him."I take it you found out something that has been difficult for you to comprehend?""What we talk about here is privileged, right? You don't discuss this with other people?"Doc Jones took her glasses off and sat forward in her seat. "I'm bound by federal patient confidential

    Tyler took his hands from the door and ran them down her body."I told you I wouldn't let you run away from me," he told her again."I know, and I'm sorry I ran," she whispered.Her eyes were still closed and that bothered him. "Open your eyes and look at me."She followed his order, and the look there stole her breath. It was so intense that she wanted to close her eyes again."Keep them open," he instructed her. "Look at me, see what I'm telling you."The only thing she could do was nod."No matter what happens or what we find out, it's not going to change how we feel about each other. We have to promise this to each other. I know that it's not going to change how I feel about you, and I think you feel the same. We can't let outside forces change the way we live our lives. There will always be outside forces if we let there be."She knew that he was right, everything about what he said was the truth. Couples faced challenges every day and they didn't run from them. Th

    Hours later, the two of them lay tangled up in the sheets of his big bed. A cold front had moved through, bringing with it a steady rain that pelted the tin roof of the farm house. Because it was older, it was also drafty. Laying together, sharing body heat under the covers seemed to be the best way to spend the rest of their day.Meredith sighed as she entangled her leg with his and scooted closer to the warmth of his body. She lifted her head as she raked her nails across his stomach. "What are we going to do about William?"That question had been on the tip of her tongue the entire time they had been here together, but she hadn't yet wanted to break the spell they seemed to be under.His large hand grabbed hers at his stomach, stilling the motions she made there. Turning it over, he brought the palm up to his mouth and brushed a kiss there on the delicate skin. "I put a passcode on his phone that I can get into. Right now, the only thing we can do is wait and see if he continu

    "You think Rooster will help us?" Tyler asked as he and Liam sat outside the Sheriff's office downtown."I think it's worth a shot," Liam answered.They were taking a huge chance, sitting just off of the historical downtown area of the square, their bikes parked at an angle on the street. Every officer that came out wearing the brown of the Sheriff's department gave their bikes and their cuts a once over. Liam was pretty sure that everyone knew who they were. The two of them sat in silence, watching each officer that came out of the building. When they noticed the red head of the man they wanted to see, Liam whistled and motioned for him to come on over."To what do I owe this pleasure?" he asked as he walked over. The loose-hipped way he walked belied the turmoil he felt inside.Liam took off his sunglasses and leveled his old friend with a stare. "We need some assistance for old times' sake."Rooster didn't like the sound of that, in fact it caused sweat to break out on his

    "I've got the information you need."Liam had suspected it would take a lot longer than a few days for Rooster to obtain what they wanted, but he had really come through. "Where do you want to do the drop?" he asked through the cell."Our old hang out." With that, he ended the call.Liam hung up and motioned for Tyler. The two of them were on repo duty with the wrecker, and it would be the perfect excuse for them to leave. "Rooster just called. He's got our information. In a few minutes, act like you got a text with a tip on a car. We need to head out towards Richardsville."Tyler nodded and a few minutes later did exactly what Liam had asked of him."We're headin' out," Tyler called out to William, who waved before they left with the wrecker.As they rode out to the old Garvin bridge, Tyler pulled his bottom lip in between his teeth."You nervous?" Liam asked."It sounds weird, but yeah, I am. I'm nervous that I'm right, and I'm nervous that I'm wrong. How crazy is tha

    Meredith sat in shock as she watched a video of the night of her attack. In the envelope there had also been a USB Drive. She hadn't been sure she had wanted to see what it held, but knew that after all the other incriminating evidence they had viewed, it had to be something big. Someone had been in the bushes that night filming, they had heard her scream for help and hadn't come to her rescue.Denise choked back sobs as she held onto Meredith's hand beside her. "Let's turn this off," she pleaded."No," Meredith stopped her. "I have to see this. I have to see what he saw while he heard me screaming for help and didn't come to my rescue. I need to know what kind of a bastard he really is.""I've seen enough," Tyler whispered, getting up from the table and making his way to the other room.He had a seat on the couch, putting his head in his hands. Most of the information they had received had been text messages and voice mails that detailed the planning of her attack and set up t

    Thanksgiving"Are you going to be okay doing this?" Tyler asked as he and Meredith got ready for the big Thanksgiving dinner with the club."I could ask you the same thing, as well as Liam and Denise. Things are going to be fine," she assured him.Thanksgiving dinner was a huge tradition with the club. Given that so many of them came from broken homes, a lot of members wouldn't have a place to go for the holidays. So the club provided the traditional meal."Are you sure you don't want to go visit your family today?"Meredith shook her head. The love she saw amongst this group of outlaws was more than she had seen in her family in a long time. "No, the only thing my dad's going to ask me is if I've decided to put the college education he paid for to use again. My mom will just sit there and nod. I'd much rather stay here."Tyler didn't have family, so he didn't really understand the dynamic. "If you say so.""I do."They made their way into the dining area of the clubhou

    Meredith screamed along with the other women who surrounded her. She wasn't exactly sure what it was about a man playing guitar that women loved, but it was downright sexy. Never had Jagger looked more at home than he did up on stage. She really couldn't believe this was the same man who was scared to death of the curse of the skull cup. She'd heard him humming and singing to himself a few times, but she'd never known his voice was so rich. As the crowd began to surge closer towards the stage, Tyler wrapped his arms tighter around her body. No one was getting in between the two of them, no one would separate them. She put her hands over his and squeezed, showing her appreciation of the fact that he wouldn't let anyone encroach on their space.The fact that she was even in this crowd, not freaking out, was amazing. After Jagger's set, she turned around and motioned for him to bend down so that she could talk into his ear."I'm thirsty," she shouted.Her voice was hoarse, and he ha

    The temperature in the cab of the truck was downright frigid as Remy drove to Tyler's house to drop off Addie first. Tatum refused to meet his gaze and that flat out pissed him off. If she was going to give herself to another man and then have the balls to sit in front of him like this, she should at least have the decency to meet his eyes when he looked at her."Am I going to have to explain to Tyler why I'm dropping you off at one in the fucking morning?" Remy glanced in the review mirror of the truck, looking back to where Addie sat in the extended cab."No," she shook her head, looking about as tired and unhappy as he felt. "He's at the clubhouse. He and Mom had planned to stay and they took Caelin with them."Well, thank God for small favors, because the one person besides Liam he didn't want to face off with tonight, was Tyler."You're lucky I don't call him and tell him where the hell you've been. How could you let her go up there with him?" he questioned her, the irrita

    Tatum's heart beat through her chest as she followed Gavin upstairs to a much quieter part of the house. Her mouth was dry – the result of her nerves, or the alcohol she'd consumed – she wasn't sure which. Her hand gripped Gavin's tightly, but she knew it wasn't because she was excited, it was because she wanted to yank on it, and stop him from leading her into the empty bedroom. Part of her wanted to put a stop to it, the other part wanted to go through with this so she could throw it in Remy's face. Those stubborn traits she'd inherited from her dad were alive and well tonight.She glanced over her shoulder, spotting Addie pulling out her phone and making a call. The worried look on her friend's face told her all she needed to know. Addie was probably calling in reinforcements and her time had suddenly become very limited."You feelin' good?" his deep voice questioned in her ear, causing her hair to stand up and goosebumps to appear on her arms. This time it was different than wh

    Remy was in a piss-poor mood, had been since the night of the Christmas party and everything that had gone down with Tatum. He bit off the head of anyone foolish enough to ask if he was okay. He'd been eating lunch by himself, and overall had been a miserable fucking loner. Even right now, while everyone else was partying their asses off, his big date was being in the gym and beating the ever-loving shit out of a heavy bag. It was the only thing that seemed to calm him the last few days.Hearing his fists connect with the bag felt good, even if it was muted by the gloves he wore. His arms burned, his shoulders and back ached, his chest heaved, and sweat poured down his forehead and into his eyes; making them sting. The sting felt good though, because it distracted him from the guilt he felt for the way he'd treated Tatum. And that guilt was pressing down on him like he was trapped under a thousand-pound boulder.He'd felt every emotion on the spectrum since she'd walked out on him

    Tatum's blue eyes took in the party-goers around her. In different parts of the room, she could see members of her graduating class, some kids that were now seniors, and a few college kids. God, this had never been her thing, she'd never found high school or college parties worth anything to her. She could see everything that went on at them and more, at the club parties. Plus, this was a mob mentality – everyone here went along with everyone else, and it was so boring. Nobody had any individuality. Normally, she'd have tossed the invitation in the trash can and not even thought twice about it. She would have spent the night at the club's New Year's party and have an actual good time with her friends and family.Tonight though, she was on a mission."Do you see anybody?" Addie asked as they surveyed the room.Tatum took a drink from the bottle of Strawberry Boone's Farm she carried in her hand. It was the bottom shelf stuff, guaranteed to get you loaded in the least amount of tim

    Tatum had never felt anything like the all-consuming lust that blasted through her as soon as Remy grabbed her hip and pulled her deep into his body. She'd thought she had but damn, she was wrong. Her fingers grasped at his shirt, trying to ground herself in the feelings, when she felt his bare palms slip up under the hem of her dress. The sharp intake of breath, and the way he nipped at her lip indicated he'd discovered she'd worn a thong."Fuck, Tate," he moaned as he pulled his lips from hers.She almost cried as he abandoned her lips and smeared his mouth down her neck. She felt the sharp nip of his teeth down to the core of her body. It caused her nipples to tighten further against the lace of strapless bra, and before she knew what she was doing, she was rubbing up against him."Please, Rem," she gasped out when she felt one of his hands on her ass venture back over her hip, and closer to the wetness and heat she felt between her thighs."Has anybody touched you?" he grow

    He knew the second she walked in, just like he'd known when she'd entered the bakery. Even seven shots of Pappy in, he could feel her, he knew she was there by the way the hair on the back of his neck stood up, the goosebumps he got on his arms and the way his dick stirred to attention. He wasn't sure what kind of hold Tatum Walker held over him, but it was strong, maybe dangerously so, like some sort of Jedi Mind Trick he'd never be able to resist. And dammit if his hand didn't shake as he took his next shot."Too much for you?" Drew asked as he noticed the slight tremble of the other man's hand.How did he tell the man sitting beside him, he was hard up for his little sister? Easy. He didn't."Nah, I'm good, but I gotta hit the head. Be back."Plan number two when plan number one didn't work? Run and hope she wouldn't follow. As much alcohol as he had consumed, he wasn't sure he could push her away this time. After all, he was only a man and he wasn't immune to the way she lo

    He should have brought a date. Those were the first words Remy thought when he walked through the door of the clubhouse. It hit him like a ton of bricks, and all he wanted to do was turn around and head back to Cash and Harper's. Normally, he lived at the clubhouse, but he'd had dinner at their place tonight. He could relieve the babysitter watching Maddy, and he wouldn't have to worry about keeping his guard up.Couples were paired off, which meant anyone without a plus one would be inevitably thrown together. Looking up, he saw mistletoe was hung randomly around the room. Shit. Since he was the youngest, he seemed to be one of the few without a woman on his arm. Sure as the world turned, he'd find himself thrown toward someone tonight.Gazing around the room, he didn't see Tatum and for that he was extremely thankful. He'd been able to avoid her since the day at Harper's bakery, but it'd hadn't been easy. Not that she'd gone out of her way to be around him but they were in the sa

    Remy told himself to slow down as he grasped her neck, hauling Tatum closer to him. He cautioned his lust-drunk body not to make a fool of itself. He warned his libido not to let this go too far. They were in the middle of the bakery, in the middle of downtown. Anyone could walk through that door from some dumbass off the street, to her brother, to her dad. But he couldn't stop, couldn't force his hand not to trail down her body and grasp her tight ass in his fingers. He wanted desperately to pull her lower half into his, wanted to shove his thigh between her legs and feel the heat he knew would be there. His tongue was forceful as it made its way into her mouth, testing how far she'd let him go.Turned out she'd let him go as far as he wanted to.His brain tried to warn him that this was progressing too quickly. It was getting too out of control, too fast. If he didn't watch it, he'd be picking her up and putting her ass first against the nearest wall. He was losing his mind, losi

    Son of a bitch. Something in the way Tatum's gaze met his made him think he'd said those words loud enough she could hear them. But fuck, she looked amazing. Even more than she usually did. Tatum had been gorgeous for a long time, but with her hair in this new cut, she looked sexy, and almost… sophisticated. But this was Tatum. She'd never fully be a lady, not really. She didn't do dresses unless she had to, she didn't do caked on makeup, and she could hang with the guys – no matter how raunchy it got."Do you like it?" She asked again, this time looking much more unsure than when she'd started out. Very slowly, she ran her fingers through her hair, giving it a tousle.Remy cleared his throat, not sure how honest he wanted to be, but at the same time knowing he couldn't help but be honest. If he lied to her, she would know, and it would do nothing to help the situation they seemed to always find themselves in. The two of them always seemed to be either pushing or pulling at each ot
