CHAPTER THIRTEEN
-:- PENNY -:-
Sunday evening, and it’s been a very busy day.
I thought it was supposed to be a day of rest, but I’m not sure anyone told the MC that.
With training in the morning, then the men going to church, which apparently is an important meeting they all have about the club and all the club businesses, of which they have a few.
I met a lot of new people, which was great.
The women I was surprised got along well.
I saw no sign of drama, and it was a relief because when the men went into their meeting I was thinking, now is the time they’ll all start having nasty comments and jabs.
But nothing! They all got around the kids, watching, playing, and talking.
It was simply joking, and if I had to describe it, sisterhood.
Blake had everyone belly laughing when she described Mav trying to calm her down after she saw a giant spider in the living room.
According to her description, it was as big as a small dog and was after her ankles.
It jumped at her, and her shrieking had Mav running into the room and chasing the spider under and around the furniture.
I can’t even describe what she is telling us, but all this happened with Mav buck naked and covered in soap suds as he’d run from the shower when he’d heard her screech.
That, of course, set everyone into a reminiscent mode.
Eden laughs. “If we are talking about naked moments, Silver was getting frisky when the doorbell chimed. I’m sure he’d forgotten he had no clothes on, and he stormed to the door, and the mailwoman stood holding out a parcel, but her eyes were not on Silver’s face, I can tell you that much.
” We all laughed, but she continued, “Silver placed a hand over his manhood and said, ‘Hey, my face is up here, and I charge for anyone looking at my dick.’ Well, that had the poor woman scurrying away, and Silver coming back into the house, but it sure dampened the mood.”
“Meat lets everyone see his dick. But if anyone touches it, or he allows them to touch it, he’ll need to get himself a new one.” I, like everyone, look at Star, and you know she’s holding up a knife that glints in the light. Damn, I reckon she would do it!
“I’ve seen Wings' dick on more than one occasion,” Amelia adds dryly, and she has a smirk on her face. “It’s a nice-sized one, too. But honestly, when it was purple it didn’t look so good.”
Purple? Why would his dick be purple? Blake shook her head at me, indicating that I should not ask. I just put the question to the back of my mind and think I’ll ask Ruger about it later if I remember.
“My Denny…” Sandy starts, “was always either naked or touching his dick. I’m not sure if it’s a problem or a man thing, but even in his pants he was always moving his dick around.
Said it got uncomfortable, so he’d have to adjust it.
” Smirking to myself, I flick my eyes to Nyx who is holding her hand over her mouth, eyes wide, which tells me something is coming.
I look back at Sandy who continues, “Can you imagine having this thing swinging around in front of you, and underneath if we count their balls. But instead of your boxers holding them in place they trap it all in different positions, balls one way, dick another. We could call it dick strangulation.”
Now, the room breaks down into uncontrollable laughter, and Sandy keeps giggling at some memory or other, but when she opens her mouth to say more, Nyx places her hand over Sandy’s mouth. Stopping her in her stride, I think, but the sparkle in Sandy’s eyes tells us all she knows what she’s doing.
Before anything else can be said on the topic of dicks the men enter the common room, and Ruger comes over to me after picking up Arabella from the small bed in the corner of the playpen. “Come on, Babe, let’s go home.”
Lincoln walks over and grabs Arabella, crooning, “Come to Uncle Linc for a minute. Best Unc you’ll ever have…” and walks away with her while Ruger places his hands on his hips, dropping his head. But I can see the smile on his face.
Jo stomps over to Lincoln and leans in whispering something into his ear.
He shakes his head, but turns and walks away, leaving Jo with a frown.
I’m not getting involved. “Get Arabella, Ruger. We need to go now.” I don’t wait for him to respond.
I pick up all our gear and head for the door.
Turning, I see Ruger taking Arabella from Lincoln, who kisses her cheeks, which makes her giggle loudly.
But he’s right behind me as we get to the SUV ready to leave.
After we have Arabella bathed, fed, and settled for the night I have a glass of wine while Ruger has a Jack Daniels whiskey. Sighing because it really has been a long day. I sip my wine and then turn to Ruger. “I’m going for a shower, then bed. Will you lock up?”
“Of course. Don’t I always, Babe?” Ruger gives me a cheeky wink, and I shake my head with a smile on my face.
It doesn’t take long for the steam in the shower to have me relaxing and sighing while I drop my head back slightly and close my eyes.
The shower door opens, and I know it’s Ruger.
It’s time we took our relationship to the next level.
I have to admit I am ready and want this to work so badly.
A lifetime with Ruger I think at this time, just isn’t long enough.
The steam envelopes us and creates this feeling of intimacy we’ve not had before, but we’re finally coming together, and it feels special.
Standing under the water, Ruger’s hands take the shower wash, rubbing it onto his hands before gently sliding his hands over my back, shoulders, arms, and then lower.
The sensation has my nipples tightening, and my core clenching.
This is a new feeling to me, unlike any other I have had before. It’s exciting, raw and ours.
Ruger’s hard body presses against my back while his hands run over my stomach, breasts, tweaking my nipples as he does so, and sliding down to my most intimate area. I open my legs, giving him permission to continue without speaking out loud.
I can feel Ruger’s excitement pressing against my lower back and know he’s not going to hold back. Turning in his arms, I look into his eyes and convey exactly how I’m feeling, or I hope he sees that.
I lift a leg and wrap it around his hip, the best I can. Ruger smiles, lifts me so my legs wrap around him completely, leaning me against the shower wall as he does. “You ready to be mine, babe? Once we have done this, I’ll never let you go.”
“I’m ready, and I’ll never let you go either,” I reply, and that is all it takes for Ruger to nudge into me gently, all the while looking into my eyes.
I’ve felt nothing so intimate. The act has a profound feeling of connection between us.
It is a moment I will never forget, a turning point in our relationship, and one I will always cherish.
The gentle motion increases with our desire and Ruger holds me under my butt cheeks, all the while whispering how much he loves me, loves my body, my sass, and that I’ll always be his, and he’ll always be mine.
When we explode together, I see stars after a moment of blackness. I honestly thought I was going to pass out with the intense pleasure this orgasm brought.
Leaning my forehead on Ruger’s shoulder, I take deep breaths to get myself under control. Ruger chuckles, “Well, Babe, that was fuckin’ amazing, and I reckon we need to finish this shower and try again in bed.”
“Yeah…you have all the best ideas,” I giggle as I unwrap my legs as Ruger slides out of my body. Amazingly, the man is still hard, and how he’s doing that after such an explosion I don’t know. But I can’t say I’m disappointed either.
The night is long, but full of passion, whispers of love, and promises we give. I feel myself drifting to sleep and know it’s not going to be long before I have to get up for work, but I sigh contented for the first time in a long time.
Five hours later, I’m at work feeling tired out I admit, but things need to be done, and I have a note on my desk stating I’ll be interviewing Holt’s sister this morning. I hope she’ll be perfect for the job or I’ll have to get back to Alf who I’m told has been put on hold for the time being.
Looking up in surprise when my office door opens, and Jo walks in, with a laptop case in one hand and a large notepad under her arm. Now, I’m not sure what is going on here, but the stern look on Jo’s face has me keeping quiet for the moment, though I lift a questioning eyebrow.
“I’m going to work from here for now. I’ll take that table over in the corner.
” Jo sets up the table that I use for organizing paperwork, but I don’t use it often so it’s not really a problem to me.
“I’m sick of everyone spending more time with my brother than I get.
So, I’m here and I’ll be making sure I see him. ”
“Oh, okay,” I reply, but then can’t help but comment. “You know I hardly see Lincoln, don’t you? He’s always upstairs in the main security office, not down here.”
“Well, I’ll work an hour as I do at the clubhouse, or at home, and then I’ll check what he’s doing. I always move after an hour because sitting for hours is not good for the circulation you know.” Jo drags the spare chair over to the table and takes a seat, opening her laptop at the same time.
“Okay…” It’s all I say before the door opens and Knuckles walks into the office. “No, Knuckles…I’ve heard all about you two, and you are not bumping uglies in my office.”
Jo looks at me and then giggles, right before getting out of her chair and going over to Knuckles, who of course leans down for her to kiss him.
I groan, stand and walk out of the office.
I just can’t see them getting at it, honestly, I just can’t.
I hurry to the main security office and don’t even bother knocking.
“Lincoln, your sister has stolen the table from the corner of my office. She’s set herself up to write and then visit you every hour.
Honestly! Knuckles is now in my office, and if they start with the dirty in there, I’ll need a new office.
” I slam my hands on my hips, doing my best to look stern, but I’d love to laugh as the situation is ridiculous.
“You know I’ve got Holt’s sister coming for an interview, and I don’t want her walking into my office and it stinks of sex. ”
“Oh, fuck's sake…” Lincoln snarls, which I’ve never heard him do before, but he strides past me with purpose, leaving me looking at Arrow who is finding the situation hilarious.
“He’ll sort it, Penny. How are you and Ruger getting along?” Arrow asks, but the blush that rushes up my cheeks must say it all. “Oh, that well?”
“Shut up,” I snap, but then giggle because…really…being caught blushing is something I should have gotten over as a teenager.
My phone rings, and I take it out of the armband I wear. I’ve taken to wearing a phone armband as I keep leaving my cellphone in places and then have to go back for it. “Hello…” That’s all I get to say before a voice asks.
“Is that Penny?”
“Yes, who's speaking, please?” I ask politely because I don’t recognize the voice.
“Penny, I’m gonna kill you.” The call is cut.
My whole body goes rigid, my eyes enlarge, and I stare at the wall in front of me. Arrow notices something is wrong and stands from his desk. “What’s wrong?” he asks, stepping toward me.
“Someone just said they’re gonna kill me,” I murmur as shock runs through me.
“Give me your phone, Penny. I’ll trace the call. I’ll let Ruger and Lincoln know what’s happened. Nobody, and I mean nobody, will get to you or Arabella, you hear me?” Arrow is in front of me, and takes hold of my face, lifting my face to his. “You hear me, Penny?”
“What the fuck is going on? Why are you touching my woman?” I hear snarled, but I know I’m safe as that's my man.
Arrow explains to Ruger as Ruger pushes Arrow away from me. Wrapping his arms around me and kissing the top of my head. He tucks me tightly to his body while Arrow contacts Lincoln and Delta.
“I’ll deal with this, Penny. I’ll let you know later about what we find.
Don’t leave the building unless one of us is with you.
I’ll leave with you tonight and fuck my patrol.
It can wait until I have you safe.” Ruger kisses me gently and takes me back to my office, where Jo is sitting at her laptop as though the earlier incident with Knuckles hadn’t happened.
An hour later I’m sitting talking with Holt’s sister, Scarlett Sullivan. She is a beautiful young woman with red hair, but it’s a deep red, just turned from brown, and not the ginger red that some have. She is bubbly and smiles easily. I like her a lot.
“It’s a large building, Scarlett, and I’m not sure you’ll be able to do it all yourself.”
Before I say more, Scarlett smiles. “I’m very efficient when I work, but I’ll tell you what we can do. If you allow me to start, give me a month to see if we need more help with the cleaning, and if so, how many.”
“That would work for me. I’ll have to run it past my bosses first. I have all your details now, and I’ll be happy to give you the job.
I have to run it past, as I’ve said, my bosses before I can give you the go-ahead.
I’ll give you a call this afternoon so you will not be waiting long for our response.
But I’m happy to employ you, and I reckon they will be too. ”
Scarlett beams a huge smile at me. “Thanks, Penny. I need the job as Holt is paying for everything at the moment. I love my brother. He’s a star. We only have each other, and I don’t want to be a burden or drain on him.”
“Holt seems like a great guy. He has fit in with everyone here easily. I know the guys like him, and if he stays I’m sure he’ll get upgraded from security detail to something more.
” I don’t know that, but I can imagine it, as Holt has already made an impression on the guys who work alongside him.
I’ve heard the comments, and my opinion is based on that.
Later that afternoon, I’m more than happy to offer Scarlett the job on a three-month trial basis, but also give her a month to work out if we need more staff, and how many more.
Scarlett was excited and is starting in the morning.
I’ll have to be at work early to show her where everything is, and the rooms to leave alone.
