Chapter Ten
Hawk
What the hell is she doing to my heart? -Hawk
Maggie’s silence is starting to get to me.
I expect her to try to yell at me over the roar of the bike.
I expect her to tell me to stop the bike, to let her off.
I expect her to change her mind. She does none of those things.
Instead, she clings to me and when I finally stop the bike in front of my house and reluctantly sling my leg over the side and disconnect from her, I notice her huge grin.
“Liked that, did you?” I ask cheekily and reach out to grasp her chin.
She nods enthusiastically. “So much. It’s like flying! I’ve never done anything like it! It was awesome.” Her green eyes gleam with excitement and an expression of complete awe.
I suddenly can’t help but imagine her wearing my cut, wearing my name on her. It makes me growl with possessiveness.
Her eyes grow darker. “You’re not going to change your mind, are you?” she asks tentatively and bites her lower lip.
I trace that lip with my index finger. “No, baby, you’re all mine tonight.”
With that declaration, I pick her up off my bike and throw her over my shoulder fireman style again. She squeals in delight, and I can’t help but grin.
I stalk inside and up the stairs, barely allowing her time to look around my sparse house.
It’s definitely a bachelor pad. A leather recliner and comfortable couch, a few pictures of me and the guys, some pics I’ve taken of the scenery around here, and that’s about it as décor goes.
Maybe she could add a feminine touch to it. Maybe she could…
Whoa, slow your roll, Hawk.
I lay her down on the bed gently, feeling like I’m handing the most precious cargo. She looks up at me with those big green eyes and something inside me melts.
“Can you get naked first, Hawk? I just want to watch you.”
The beast within me roars at her soft question.
“Sure, baby. I’ll give you a show.” My heart beats a fast rhythm. I’ve never been shy. Hell, I lost my virginity at fifteen to a much older woman. I’ve had a lot more women since then.
But with her, something’s different. Very different.
I slowly take my vest off and set it to the side with care.
She cocks her head to the side. “Is your vest special to you, Hawk? What does it mean to you?” she asks softly.
I snort. “You’re askin’ me about my cut while I’m undressin’ for you? I must be doing something wrong.”
She grins. “I can assure you you’re not. Just tell me.” Her green eyes sparkle with interest and I give in.
I sigh as I pull my black t-shirt over my head. “It means that I’m a part of the Savage Kings MC family, the first family I’ve had since getting out of the service.”
She licks her lips and examines my chest with desire in her eyes. “What did you have to do to earn your “cut” as you call it?”
I unsnap my jeans and enjoy watching her eyes widen. “You sure you want to keep on with this?”
She swallows. “I’m su…sure, just keep going.” I take satisfaction in the shakiness of her voice.
“We have to earn the loyalty of the members, sweetheart. That means doing whatever they ask without question.” I move closer to the bed, shucking my jeans as I do so.
“Um,” she licks her lips, “whatever they ask?” Her gaze takes in my hard cock barely confined by my boxer briefs. “Have they ever asked anything illegal?”
I chuckle. “I plead the fifth.”
I place my hands on the band of my underwear. “You ready for the last step, princess?”
Her hands reach out. “I’m ready. I want to touch.” The husky tone of her voice makes my cock jump.
I grip her hands in mine. “Nope, that’s my job. I’ll finish.”
I pull my underwear down, watching her face flush and the heat flare in her eyes. I take my cock in my hands and stroke.
“Fuck, baby, I love you watching me.” I stalk closer to her and settle in between her legs, “but it’s time for me to get you naked too.”
She crosses her arms over her chest. “What if I’m not what you want, Hawk? What if I…”
I place my hands on her bare legs and lean close to her face. “Baby, I’ve never wanted anyone the way I want you. I promise you that’s not bullshit.”
“Okay, then.”
I love the way her nose scrunches as if she still doesn’t believe me. I kiss her nose and then follow with more kisses down her neck. “I would love to see you in my cut one day with nothing else on,” I murmur.
She softens against me and rakes her hands through my hair. “Really?”
“Really, baby.”I pull away from her. “Lay down. I’ll show you.”
She lets me go and lays down with a gentle sigh.
There’s an emotion in my chest when I look down at her. My princess. My everything.
