Chapter 11 #3
“Widow and one of our prospects.” Widow was one of the older brothers who I had no doubt wasn’t thrilled about spending a week away from his ol’ lady, Frankie, and her boys, but he’d be there without a single complaint.
He’d dedicated his life to the club and never failed to be there when the brothers needed him.
I felt his time at the Manor with Kiersten and the others would be no different, and he would see that things continued to run smoothly.
“They should be here by noon tomorrow. I’ve talked to them, and they both know the expectations. ”
“Oh, okay.” She swallowed hard, pushing back her emotion as she told me, “I’m sure they will do fine.”
“They will, and we’re only thirty minutes away so if you need anything...”
“I’ll be fine. It’s just been really nice having you here.”
When Lynch realized Kiersten was upset, he stood and said, “I think I’m gonna give you two some time to talk, and I’m gonna call it a night.”
“You don’t have to run off.”
“Yeah, I kind of do.” Lynch took a few steps, then turned back to Kiersten and said, “I did want to ask you about something.”
“Okay. What’s on your mind?”
“You know how you’ve done all this research on how marijuana helps people with pain and stuff?
“Yeah?”
“You ever heard of it helping kids with cerebral palsy?”
“To be honest, the research is pretty limited, but what has been done has shown that it help with pain control and the reduction of spastic movements and seizures. Why?”
“My sister’s kid has a hell of a time with it.
Reece is just eleven years old, and she’s so weak and her muscles are so stiff she can barely walk.
There are a lot of kids out there who are in much worse shape.
They’re in wheelchairs or bedridden, so she’s lucky that she’s able to get around with a walker.
” There was no missing the anguish in Lynch’s voice as he explained, “But if she just had something to help with the pain... .”
“I’m really sorry she’s having to deal with this.”
“Yeah. Me, too.” Lynch ran his fingers through this hair. “These people you donate your stuff to, how does that work?”
“It’s usually someone I know or a friend of someone like you and your niece.
I look over their diagnosis, and if I think I can help, I reach out to them.
Nine times out of ten, they jump at the chance to get some relief, and so far, everyone I’ve been working with has shown improvement.
” I knew Kiersten had been helping others, but I had no idea just how much she’d been doing until now.
Kiersten smiled as she asked, “Would you like me to reach out to your sister?”
“Actually, I would.”
“Okay, but is she going to be open to the idea? Cause there’s a lot of people who think negatively about marijuana use.”
“At this point, I think she’d be willing to try anything. They both would.” Lynch reached into his pocket and pulled out a card. “My sister’s name is Hannah. Here’s her number and address. I’ll let you know that you’ll be reaching out.”
“Okay. I’ll give her a call tomorrow afternoon.”
“Thanks, Kiersten.” Lynch turned his attention to me as he said, “Let me know when you’re ready to head out tomorrow.”
“Will do.”
Once Lynch had walked back over to the guest quarters, I looked over to Kiersten and my chest tightened as I watch the light of the fire dance across her beautiful face. It amazed me that she had no idea just how incredible she was. My voice was strained as I told her, “You’re awesome.”
“No, far from it, but you’re sweet to say so.” She got up and walked over to me, then sat down on my lap as she asked, “Is it bad that I don’t want you to leave tomorrow?”
“I’ll be back before you know it.”
“I know, but I like being able to see you every day.”
“You know how important these first few runs are gonna be. It’s important for me to be there, otherwise I’d stick around for a little longer.”
“Does that mean I’ll see you when you get back?”
“Absolutely, but I’m not gone yet.” I smiled as I told her, “We still have tonight.”
“Bells and whistles?”
“You can count on it.”
I reached up, slipped my hand around the back of her neck, and pulled her close as I pressed my mouth against hers.
Her lips were warm and soft, and each swirl of her tongue made the blood rush straight to my cock.
Her lips parted in surprise as I fisted her hair in my hand and gave it a soft tug.
I ran my tongue across her open lips before delving deep into her mouth.
The kiss was urgent, full of need and uncontrollable want, and all her little whimpers and moans spurred me on even more.
When I couldn’t take it a moment longer, I stood and lifted her into my arms and carried her back to her place.
As soon as we’d made it inside, I lowered her feet to the floor, and when she looked up at me with those lust-filled eyes, I’d never seen a more beautiful sight.
She placed her hands on my chest, lifting up on her tiptoes as she pressed her lips to mine kissing me with a hunger that matched my own.
And just like that, I was completely lost in her—the scent of her hair, the feel of her heart beating against her chest, the taste of her skin.
I felt like my entire world was centered right there with her in my arms, and I never wanted the feeling to end.
I took her hand and led her into the bedroom where I savored every moment I had left with her.
