He shook his head, his eyes wide with worry.
“Yeah, I know that, but what the fuck are we supposed to do? Make a deal with those motherfuckers? Run?”
“No,” I groaned.
“There is only one thing we can do; go back and fight. They’re not going to beat us down so easily.”
“Yeah but they’ll do some damage,” I said.
“Each of you knew what was at stake before you were patched in.”
“I don’t regret it. I just want to keep everyone alive. I want our MC to continue thriving. I want those ballsacks to fuckin’ leave us alone!” I wanted to kick something. I could feel the rage pumping through my veins.
“We need to get back. Bolt needs us in numbers.”
“Yeah.”
“Tomorrow. Morning. We head back.”
I nodded. Drax was about to walk away and that was when I remembered. I hadn’t given it thought yet because I didn’t think I needed to, but some decisions would have to be made. Quickly. Was I going to leave her behind?
“The chick. Her name’s Allegra,” I spoke up. Drax stopped in his tracks and turned to me again.
“That’s rad,” he said and almost smiled again. “She any good?”
“Yeah, she’s great.”
“You can just tell with the sassy ones, can’t you? When they let their mouths run like that. Great in the sack.”
“Drax, I had to rescue her tonight. From a guy who was trying to kill her.”
He looked confused. A dark cloud came over his face.
“Why would someone try to kill her?”
“Jealous ex. Something like that. I don’t know the full story yet but basically, she’s on the run. Has nowhere to go.”
“So what are you trying to tell me here?” he asked, focusing his eyes on me. Challenging me to actually say the words. He knew this was uncharacteristic of me. Maybe he couldn’t believe it either.
I cleared my throat.
“Maybe we should take her along with us.”
He raised his brows. “You fuckin’ shitting me?”
“No. I’m not. This guy could find her tomorrow and kill her.”
“And why should I fuckin’ care?” Drax growled. “I have a Club to save right now.”
“Yeah, but it’s somebody’s life,” I replied, trying to keep my voice even.
“Yeah, somebody you want to fuck. You want to keep fucking?”
“That is not what’s happening here. I don’t really know this chick.”
“So she could be lying to you about her ex. This guy who attacked her?” Drax asked.
I let my shoulders droop and nodded. “Yeah, I guess she could, but I’m willing to take my chances with her. I just want to take her somewhere safe where this guy can’t reach her.”
Drax was glaring at me with his bloodshot eyes. I could sense he’d had too much to drink already. He cursed under his breath and then scrunched up the can of beer and threw it to the floor.
“She’s your fuckin’ responsibility,” he hissed.
“Yes.”
“We ride in the morning. No delays.”
I nodded.
I watched him staggering a little as he walked away from my door. I waited till he was safely inside his room and then stepped back into mine.
I wasn’t sure how long I’d been talking to Drax, but by the looks of it, it seemed like Allegra had drifted off to sleep.
She lay under the covers, her body softly rising and falling. She looked peaceful.
I wanted her. I wanted to rip those covers off and pick up where we left off. I wanted to feel the warmth, the stickiness and tightness of her pussy. My cock throbbed just at the thought of those perfect tits. The taste of her sweet nipples. I wanted every inch of her in my mouth.
But she was asleep and I didn’t want to wake her.
What the actual fuck?
Why did I give a fuck?
She was in my bed because I wanted to fuck her. So why was I letting her sleep? Why did I just convince Drax to let me bring her with us?
She didn’t even want to give me the full story. Drax was right—it was very likely she was lying to me about everything. What was she really running from?
I had all these questions in my head.
I knew our ride would have to be postponed indefinitely.
I knew we were headed back to a war zone and it could get dangerous.
I wasn’t going to sleep tonight, but I was glad at least she was.6AllegraI woke up and it was morning. I didn’t even know when I fell asleep. The last thing I remembered was lying in this bed, worrying, tearing up because I didn’t know what to do. Because I was tired of running and trying to hide. I was so afraid last night. I thought this was it. Billy was going to get his hands on me.
But this morning, I sat up in bed and found Flash getting dressed. It didn’t seem like he’d been up for long. Had we spent the whole night together? Sleeping beside each other in bed?
