Scott broke into our conversation. “Ladies, as much as I’d love to shoot the shit with you, I’ve got business to get back to. Harlow, this conversation is to be continued but for the moment, I’ve got one of my boys watching you so you’ll be safe.”
“What do you mean, you’ve got one of your boys watching me?” I was so not used to the way Scott did things and I was struggling to get my head around it.
“I mean, if you look outside, you’ll see one of my men on his bike guarding you. Anyone tries to get to you, they’ve got to go through him first and he’s not an easy fucker to get past. You go out anywhere, he’ll be following you.”
“Damn. I need me a caveman like you,” Cassie said, and I didn’t fail to notice the breathlessness in her voice. Oh, good Lord, she was sucked in to the Scott Cole bossy charm.
I shooed him. “Okay, fine. Got you. I’ve got my own personal bodyguard. Thank you. Now, go and leave us girls to talk about you.”
He shook his head in a ‘what the fuck am I getting myself into’ kind of way. But then he pulled me in for a kiss and smacked my ass before he began walking out of the room. “Get some sleep, babe. I’ve got plans for you tonight.” And then he was gone and my skin was tingling with excitement.
After we heard the front door close, Cassie turned to me and shrieked, “Fucking hell! Spill the beans, girl.”
We spent the next hour over coffee and cake while I caught her up on what was happening between me and Scott.
“So, you’re together now?” she asked.
I shrugged. “He was pretty clear that he wants me in his life, but you know what? For once in my life, I’m just going with the flow and not forcing something. I don’t know him that well yet so I want to take my time working him out.”
“And are you worried about this threat that’s been made? It sounds scary; like do you really want to get involved with someone who brings that type of stuff into your life?”
“I know I should probably be running the other way but I’ve seen Scott in action and I believe that when he says he can keep me safe, he’ll keep me safe. And, I’ve lived my whole life picking guys that I thought were the better option. I’ve always gone for the men who I thought were the good guy. And, they all screwed me over one way or the other. Scott might be a biker and be involved with trouble but he’s shown me so many other sides to himself that are worth something more than anything those other assholes gave me.”
“Yeah, you can’t always judge someone by their outwards appearance can you?”
I smiled mischievously. “Well, Scott’s pretty hot to look at... I’d say you’d be right to judge him as the guy most likely to give you an amazing orgasm.”
“Oh my God. I need to know more!”
I got up from the table. “We need more coffee for this.”
Cassie was grinning at me like a mad woman; talking men was one of our favourite things to do. I laughed at her and sent a message of thanks out to the universe for blessing me with the best friend a girl could want.
Chapter 23
Scott
“Scott.” I turned at the sound of my father’s voice. We’d just finished meeting with the club to plan our next move. Nash had shared his findings with us. He’d discovered that Black Deeds owed close to half a million on their porn production company and that they were struggling to pay it off. It seemed that their drug business was the only way they were currently able to meet their monthly debt bill. That was why they were so hell bent on keeping Blade out of it. Our goal now was to hit them where it hurt; we just had to come up with a plan to do that.
I stopped and waited for him to catch up to me. “What’s up?” I asked him when he got closer.
“I want you to come with me to see Blade. We need to bring him up to speed.”
My immediate reaction was to decline but I thought about it for a minute. I came to the conclusion that I’d prefer to be involved in this meeting to make sure that Dad didn’t agree to something that wasn’t in Storm’s best interest. “You want to go now?”
Dad’s face flickered surprise for a moment. “Yeah. He’s at his warehouse; I’ll meet you there.”
I agreed and he left. As I was walking to my bike, Harlow called me. “You okay?” I answered it.
“Yes, but I just wanted to let you know that I got a call from Lisa. She’s upset because some of the girls have been bullying her today. I’m going to go and see her at school and make sure she’s alright. Is that okay with you?”
“Babe, already told you, you want to help Lisa, you go right ahead. Anyone with a problem about that answers to me.”
She was quiet for a moment. “Okay,” she replied, softly.
“Let me know if there’s anything you need from me, otherwise I’ll see you tonight. I’ll be over at about nine o’clock to pick you up.”
“Okay,” she breathed into the phone and it made my dick jerk.
“And babe, cover up because I’m putting you on the back of my bike tonight,” I promised before ending the call. Christ, just the thought of her on my bike, pussy tucked in close and arms around me, made me hard.
“What do you mean, you’ve got one of your boys watching me?” I was so not used to the way Scott did things and I was struggling to get my head around it.
