CHAPTER TWENTY
I follow the rest of my brothers into our meeting room, where we hold Church. Sitting my ass down at the table, I place my left ankle over my right knee and sit back, waiting. I look across at Riggs.
“How’s Lexie after everything that happened last night?” I ask my brother, struggling to contain my anger at Caleb, the asshole who scared my woman into a meltdown that I almost thought she wouldn’t come out of it unscathed.
I wanted to go hunting. I wanted to skin the fucker alive for hurting her. And I hoped I’d get my chance soon.
“She’s fine. More worried about Zoe than herself, as you can imagine.” I chuckle at that, because that’s just the sort of woman Lexie is.
Further questions about what’s happening with the two of them had to be put on the back-burner, as Kick’s voice called out.
“Okay, let’s get started. We’ve a shit ton to get through today.” Kick says, as he sits at the end of the table, Tiny beside him as the VP. Kick’s eyes meet mine and Riggs’s.
“How are the girls this morning?” he asks, concern etched on his face.
“Zoe’s better. But who knows how she’ll react further down the track?” I reply, unable to erase the image of my woman in a fetal position, sobbing on the floor last night. And it’s not something I’m keen to revisit ever again.
“You know Lexie. She’s a badass. Nothing fazes her.” Riggs says, pride shining from his eyes.
“That’s true.”
“Okay,” Kick calls out over the din of the voices talking. “Let’s start with the fucker that threw the brick through Lexie’s window?”
My anger spikes when I think about how close he could’ve come to hitting Zoe or Lexie. I”m worried about Zoe”s safety, now that he knows where she is. I was hell-bent on keeping her out of harm”s way. And to bury him six feet under.
Kick levels me and Riggs with a knowing look. “Keep the girls safe. I’m assuming you’re claiming Zoe?” he asks me.
“Yes. I am,” I reply without hesitation. I didn’t believe I was ready to be tied down to Zoe until I saw her again at the gym. Her father had forbidden me to see her while she was in the hospital. I was pissed at him for keeping her away from me, but I understood where he was coming from. After all, he believed, like everyone else, that I had attacked her. And when it was proven that I didn’t, she’d already left for the rehab center, and I thought it best to leave her to get her strength back before I bombarded her with things she might likely run from.
I was so glad she didn’t. Because just the thought of being with her, of her being my ol’ lady, didn’t make me break out in hives like I thought it would. In fact, I couldn’t wait for that to happen.
“Keep Zoe at the clubhouse. And if she has to leave, either a prospect or you will tail her.” Kick orders. “We’ll go hunting soon enough. Okay, next item on the agenda, the fire at the gym. What do we know?”
“I think the bitch vet set it. It started in her business.” Ky calls out angrily.
“Do you think maybe someone set it deliberately, maybe to either frame her or hurt her?” I reply. I just didn’t see her doing it on purpose and putting not only the animals that stayed there in danger, but her livelihood.
A look of surprise came over Ky’s face, telling me he never even thought in that direction.
“Okay, keep an eye out for her as well. If she’s the one to blame for the gym going up, we’ll be there to catch her. If not, we’ll find out who is. But one thing at a time. First Zoe’s ex.” He stabs Knox with a hard stare.
The poor guy was still getting over the attack on our clubhouse last year by the fucker Jose Ramos, who ended up dying at the hands of Lily—Kick and Everleigh’s daughter. Knox had been injured when the bomb exploded at the clubhouse, and he now walks with a slight limp.
“I want you to find everything you can about the fucker, Caleb Thatcher. The prick must have something he’s hiding. I want a location if you can get it for me by the end of the week.”
“You got it, brother,” Knox replies, writing in his notebook and shutting down his laptop.
For the next half hour, we went over small matters like each business, and how they were faring, Also, that Spider’s and Snake’s patching in party was a go for tonight.
“Okay, Church adjourned.” Everyone goes their separate ways, but I head for my room. I’m pretty sure Zoe is there. I need to check in on her.
I hustle up the stairs, taking them two at a time before stopping in front of the door to my room, Without knocking, I push the door open, coming to a complete stop, as my eyes take in the scene in front of me.
Zoe, standing there with her back towards me, dropped the towel that had been wrapped around her. I couldn’t look away from the smooth, unblemished skin of her back, the full curve of her hips, and her peachy ass, the urge to take a bite was strong. Before I can act on it, I hear her gasp as she whirls around, both arms over her tits and pussy. But I saw her last night, the red curls of her cunt, peeking through regardless of her trying to hide herself from me.
“Never cover yourself in front of me, little one. I already saw everything there is to see. I even had my tongue and fingers in your pretty, tight cunt.” I growl out, coming to stand in front of her.
My words brought on a bright red blush to her cheeks, and I couldn’t help the grin that curves my lips. Despite her attempts to act unaffected, I could see how much my words impacted her. Her pupils dilated, and she was licking her lips. But the biggest giveaway was the moisture that slid down her inner thighs. I move her arms from her tits and her pussy, placing them on my chest.
“How much do you want me to fuck you right now?” I ask and trace my finger along her inner thigh, tasting her essence as I bring it to my lips. Her eyes go wide, and she gasps.
“W-we can’t. Not with Mr Boots in here.” She stammers, motioning towards the kitten on the bed. I reluctantly let her go, scooping up the fluff ball. There’s no way I’ll let this tiny little being ruin my time with my woman.
Turning on my heel, I leave our room and stomp down the hall to Riggs’s room. Rapping on the door, I wait for him to answer, turning my head to watch Zoe run towards me, wrapped in the towel.
“What are you doing with him?” she demands.
A nerve ticks in my jaw, and just then, Riggs opens the door, and I position myself in front of Zoe so that he can’t see her. I hand off the little shit to my brother.
“Take him for a while. Zoe will be back for him later.” I say, ignoring the look of surprise on his face. I take Zoe’s arm in a tight hold and drag her back to my room. Slamming the door shut, locking it.
“Hey, take it easy, caveman.” She grumbles, as I back her up against the wall, pressing my jean clad cock into her belly. Letting her feel just how hard I was for her.
“I’ll show you caveman. You’re in a clubhouse full of men, you can’t just walk around in wrapped in a towel. I won’t let anyone else look at what’s mine.” I growl. I could see by the look on her face she was ready for battle. I silenced her with a swift movement of my head, locking her lips with mine in an intense and unforgettable kiss.
It’s been a long time since the last time I kissed a woman. I would never go close to a sweet butt with my lips, not even to eat them out. Let alone kiss them on the lips. I know for a fact it wouldn’t bother other brothers, but I just couldn’t do it.
Just the thought of eating Zoe out made my mouth water. And I couldn’t wait to get my lips on her since having a taste of her earlier. When she moaned into my mouth, I couldn’t help but nip her tongue. Thinking she was going to pull back from me, I was surprised when she didn’t. I was even more surprised and turned on when she leant even more into me.
Jumping into my arms, I cupped her gorgeous ass in my hands when she wrapped her legs around my waist. Holding her steady, the apex of her thighs was opened to me, and I couldn’t wait to feel the heat emanating from her on my bare cock, instead of through my jeans.
The position I had her in wasn’t ideal for our first time, but it would have to do. Holding her up with my body, I unbutton and unzip my jeans, lowering my boxer briefs so that my painfully hard cock springs forward, like a beacon, finding its target almost immediately, as I rub the head with the piercing over Zoe’s hot tight and wet cunt. She groans, and I can’t help the tiny smirk on my face.
“You ready for me, little one?” I whisper huskily. “I’m going bare, there’s no way I want a rubber between us. Your mine.”
“So ready,” she replies, her eyes hooded with lust. I know I should prepare her first, but I’m ready to burst, and there’s just no time.
Without giving her a chance to back out, I shove my dick inside her wet channel, our groans the only thing that could be heard in the entire room.
“Fuck yes, just like that.” She moans as I stretch her walls, remaining still so that she can get used to me. “Please move.” She begs.
“Whatever you wish, baby.” I tell her, as I begin to slowly piston my hips. I almost withdraw completely before pushing in balls deep inside of her again. I notice the towel is still covering her body, and on a feral growl, I rip it from her, throwing it to the floor. With one hand on her peachy ass, holding her up, the other one wraps around her tit, lifting it to my lips, I latch onto the already hard nipple, sucking it deep into my mouth until she’s throwing her head back and moaning words I can’t make out.
“All mine.” I grunt, releasing her tit with a wet pop, trying to hold on to the last vestiges of my sanity. “Say it.” I demand.
She closes her eyes, refusing to look at me.
“Look at me.” I can see the hesitation in her eyes as she complies with my demand.
“You’re mine, little one. Never forget that. And if that asshole comes anywhere near you, I’ll kill him.” I vow, feeling her walls tighten around me. Seems my talk of murdering her ex turns my little one on. Who would have thought? She explodes around my cock in a scream.
Three pumps later, I’m releasing deep inside her on a roar of my own. Being with her is like nothing I’ve ever felt before. And I wasn’t about to let her go, especially now that I know nothing happened between me and Sin that drunken night. Now if I could only convince her not to run from me.
