All Chapters of The Gentleman Biker: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

"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

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,

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

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

"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
