The crowd at the clubhouse began to thin out, and by 2 AM, only a handful of stragglers remained, most of them slumped over tables or passed out on couches. Trina had left an hour ago, leaving me to close up on my own.
I was wiping down the bar when I felt a presence behind me. I turned to find Talon leaning against the counter, his eyes dark. and intense as they roamed over my body.
“Ready to head out, angel?” he asked, his deep voice sending shivers across my
body
Inodded, suddenly nervous. “Yeah, just let me grab my things.”
As I gathered my tips and shoved them into the front pocket of my jeans, I could feel Talon’s eyes on me. The air between us felt charged, electric with unspoken tension. I walked out from behind the bar, coat in hand, and we headed toward the door. I felt Talon’s hand on the small of my back..
As we reached his bike, I could feel the heat radiating from his body. He handed me a helmet as he took his hair down. briefly shaking it out and running his fingers through it, and I ogled him shamelessly. I put the helmet on, and he turned to help me secure it before pulling his own over his head.
“Ever ridden before?” He asked as he swung his leg over the bike.
I shook my head. “This is my first time.”
A small smile spread across his face. “Well then, hold on tight.”
I climbed on behind him, wrapping my arms around his waist as the engine roared to life beneath us. As we rolled out of the lot, I pressed myself closer to him, feeling the electricity crackle between us as I hugged his back.
Talon took the long way back to Jake’s house, winding through dark country roads. The cool night air whipped past us, but his body was warm against mine. My hands splayed across his abs, feeling the hard muscles beneath his shirt. I fought the urge to let them wander lower.
As we rounded a tight curve, I let out a small gasp and pressed my face into his back. I felt, more than heard, his low chuckle. He reached down with one hand, squeezing my thigh reassuringly. The simple touch sent a jolt through my body.
All too soon, we were pulling up to the farmhouse. Talon cut the engine and helped me off the bike, his hands lingering on my waist. We removed our helmets, shaking out our hair.
“Thanks for the ride,” I said softly, nibbling on my lower lip.
Talon’s eyes roarned my face, coming to rest on my lips. Before I knew what hit me, his mouth crashed into mine, nearly sending me reeling backwards before his arms wrapped tightly around my waist.
I gasped against Talon’s lips, shocked by the sudden intensity of the kiss. I melted into his embrace, winding my fingers into his long hair and tugging gently as I returned his attack with equal fervor.
His tongue swept across my bottom lip, seeking entrance, and I eagerly granted it. As our tongues danced, I felt a low growl rumble through his chest. He backed me up against his bike, his hands roaming down my sides to grip my hips. I could f the hard length of him pressed against my stomach, and a soft moan escaped me.
Talon broke the kiss, trailing his lips along my jaw to my ear. “Do you have any idea how long I’ve wanted to do that?” he growled, his hot breath sending shivers down my spine.
“Probably about as long as I have,” I whispered back, my fingers reaching up to run softly through his beard.
We stood that way for a few seconds that felt like endless hours, his forehead pressed to mine, his piercing green eyes lingering on mine,

“I have to meet up with Jake,” he mumbled, finally pulling away as I heard the rumble of motorcycles making their way up the street. “That will be Ghost and Bones. They’ll keep an eye on the place while you rest,”
Talon
As the guys pulled into the driveway and cut their bikes, I watched my angel float onto the porch and up to the house. She paused briefly at the door, glancing back over her shoulder, and I gave her a wink, a smile playing at the edges of my mouth. She disappeared into the house, and I could still taste her on my lips as I turned to the guys.

“Everything quiet?” I asked, my voice gruff.
Ghost nodded. “All clear. No sign of any trouble.”
“Good” I replied. “Keep your eyes open. I’ll be back later.”
They nodded solemnly, taking up positions on the perimeter of the property. I swung my leg over my bike, the engine purring to life beneath me. As much as I wanted to stay, to follow Laura inside and finish what we’d started, I had business to attend to.
The cool night air whipped past me as I sped toward town, my mind racing. That kiss had been everything I’d imagined and The sofiness of her plump lips, the little sounds she made, the way her body fit perfectly against mine – it was intoxicating. But I knew I had to tread carefully.

When I arrived at the warehouse, Jake was already there, pacing back and forth with a cigarette hanging from his mouth.
“Took you long enough,” Jake grumbled as I pulled up. “What the hell kept you?”
I shrugged, trying to keep my expression neutral. “Just making sure your sister got home safe.”
Jake narrowed his eyes, but didn’t press further. “We’ve got a situation,” he said, taking a long drag of his cigarette. “Craig’s been spotted sniffing around town again.”
I felt a surge of rage at the mention of that bastard’s name. He was being too fuckin persistent.
“Apparently we haven’t been clear enough,” Jake said. “We need to send a stronger message
I nodded grimly. “What’s the plan?”
Jake outlined the details as we made our way into the warehouse. A group of our gearing up. The air was heavy with anticipation.
trusted brothers were already there.
