The events of the last few days had been hard on everyone. Liam and Roni had gone to speak with their mother, explaining what had gone on with William. They had come back both red-faced and subdued. A few of the older members had decided to leave the club. What remained was a young group of men who were ready to take on a new world. Ready to make a new destiny for themselves.Tyler sat on the couch of Meredith's counselor's office, his hands between his knees. "What do you want me to say?""What do you want to say?" Dr. Jones asked.He turned his head to face Meredith. "I'm not sure that I like when she answers a question with a question."She grinned. "Sucks when someone does that to ya, huh? Remember that for when we have our own conversations."Slinging his arm over the back of the couch, he playfully pinched her shoulder."Seriously, Tyler. How do you feel?"He opened his mouth a few times to speak, but found there were no words. "I don't know. I've done many things i
Five hours later, they entered the city of Gatlinburg. It was bordering on late night, but he knew exactly where they were going. He had called a friend a few hours before to make sure that the cabin he wanted was available. Snow had started falling the closer he got to the cabin, but that was why he had made sure the truck was properly maintained. A few miles ago, he'd stopped and put the snow chains on his tires. Meredith had yet to wake up. He reasoned that she probably needed this getaway even more than he did.He parked at the cabin and was glad to see the stream of smoke coming out. His friend had obviously made sure there was heat, and hopefully there would be food because after driving all the way through, he was starving. Grabbing their bags, he took them inside before going back out to get her."Hey," he nudged her awake carefully.She snuggled deeply in his arms as he unbuckled her and carried her out of the truck. "Where are we?""Gatlinburg."She came awake quick
He was having the absolute best dream ever. His hands were tangled in Meredith's hair as she kneeled between his thighs, her lips wrapped around the erection that stood up from his body. He was directing her with gentle pressure from his hands as he slowly thrust his hips towards the warmth of her mouth.Her nails scored his thighs and the slight pinch of pain brought him to reality. Quickly, he realized this wasn't a dream. This was real life. The morning sunshine streamed through the curtains, bathing her in sunlight. It looked as if she had a halo surrounding her, giving her an ethereal look."Damn, baby," he groaned, leaning his head back against the pillows. "Can you take it deeper?"She opened her mouth wider, relaxing the muscles of her throat, allowing him to slip further in. Pulling him back out, she swirled her tongue around the head and couldn't help but grin as the breath hissed from between his clenched teeth.Tyler tried to figure out how long she had been doing t
Meredith walked into the chapel, Tyler not too far behind. The overhead bell rang and the clerk came out, a smile on his face."Somethin' I could help you two with?"Tyler reached out for her hand and squeezed it. "We were wondering what we would need to do in order to get married today."The clerk explained the process, that they would need the names of their parents, their driver's license, and their social security cards."What if I was a ward of the state, and I don't know who my biological parents are?" Tyler asked softly."That's fine. If you don't know, you don't know. Just fill out what you can."They filled out the information and forked over the cash that was needed."Do you have rings?" he asked.They looked at one another. This was something they had forgotten."We don't, but we have something that's a little more us," Meredith smiled.Tyler looked at her, the question written on his face. "Our necklaces," she explained. "And you know we could totally pl
An unusual white Christmas had descended on Bowling Green. It was a rare occurrence and even more rare that it was also freezing cold, the highs only into the teens. Inside the clubhouse, everyone was cozy and warm."Tyler, you have got to stop following me around with the mistletoe. I have stuff to do," Meredith joked good-naturedly.Jagger called from across the room. "It's only natural, I mean you are newlyweds, right?"Tyler and Meredith looked at one another, a smile they had shared numerous times since coming back from Gatlinburg. She winked at him and turned to face Jagger. "I don't know? Are we?""Damn it. The two of you are driving me up a wall. You're never going to answer that question are you?"This time Tyler grinned at Jagger. "I don't know? Will we?"Jagger groaned. "Bah humbug to you both."Denise came out of the kitchen, fanning her face with a dishtowel. "Somebody else is gonna have to go in there a while. Otherwise, I'm gonna be sick on the Christmas Tu
VOLUME THREE: LOSING CONTROL"Has anyone ever told you that you should be a male model instead of a biker?"Jagger Stone froze. That husky voice had haunted him for months. Since the Harley Drags in October to be exact. It was a hell of a story really, the way the two of them had finally met. She'd been on the back of a truck that had been outfitted with a stripper pole. He'd caught her when she'd lost her footing and taken a tumble. She had been a lot drunk and mostly naked. Since that day, he hadn't been able to get her out of his head. The few times they had spoken with each other since hadn't been enough."Anybody ever tell you it's not good to sneak up on a biker?"That same voice gave a low laugh that went straight to his groin. Never in his life had anyone affected him this way."'Sneak up on a biker' is a relative term. You didn't even have your back all the way to the door. I'm sure you knew I was here."She was right with that statement, but it wasn't because he d
Bianca sighed deeply. She wasn't used to sitting still and she was bored, even if she was using the time to study. Without a car, she had no mode of transportation, and since she had no mode of transportation, she wanted to go everywhere. Beside her, her cell phone rang, Jagger's name flashing on the screen."Hello?""Hey." She could hear the smile in his voice, see the dimple in his cheek as clear as day."I'm just lettin' you know, your car's done. I can drop it by for you if you can bring me back to the shop.""Not a problem. I'll be waiting."Quickly, she got up from her couch, closed the textbooks she'd been studying, and hurried into the bedroom of her small apartment. Noting that there was still ice on her window, she grabbed a large hoodie and a warm pair of jeans along with a pair of boots. She heard a car pull into her parking space and ran a brush through her hair before grabbing her purse and bounding down the stairs.He didn't get out of the driver's seat, so s
Wet Wanda's was bursting at the seams with patrons, and Bianca's feet were killing her. The number of people that had gathered into the small space swelled until it was over capacity. It was always this way when Jagger came out to play. Leaning against the bar, she took a breather and gazed out at the sea of people that had crammed themselves in every nook and cranny available.Her gaze landed on a group of people near the stage, all wearing the red and black colors of Heaven Hill. They had been regulars since Jagger had begun performing. It was nice to see the camaraderie that the group shared. There was never a night he performed that they didn't pack the place. She'd noticed recently there were more women coming with them. She knew that two of them belonged to Tyler and Liam, but the rest she just knew came for Jagger."Why are you shootin' daggers at all those women over there?" Jasmine asked, an all-knowing grin on her face."No reason.""Bullshit. If you like the man, why
