I thrust harder. “I missed your text messages.” Another deep stroke. “I missed your voice at bedtime.” Another thrust. “And I missed seeing you. Being with you.” I keep fucking her until she’s begging.

And then I make her come all over my cock.

Mine.

When I finish inside her and pull out, I slide my finger through my cum and push it back inside her. “So fucking pretty,” I murmur, as she finally lets her hands drop from the headboard and sags against the mattress.

Pressing a kiss on her ass, I lie back and hold her as she rolls over into my arms.

It would have taken guts to walk in here.

Meredith is brave and badass, and I have no doubt that she will fit into my world once she gets over the initial shock.

And then there are a few details that I’ve left out.

One, I will tell her in time.

And the other, I don’t want her ever to know.

It was before her, so it doesn’t matter anyway.

“I’m glad you came here,” I say against her hair. “I know that you said it’s too early to meet Natalia, so does this mean that you’ve changed your mind and you’ll meet her?”

“Yeah, I think I need to be thrown into the deep end so I can see the dynamic going on here. No more surprises. I do want you, Nate.”

But she wants to see if she can handle my life and the fact that I have a baby.

It hurts, I’m not going to lie. I want her to love my daughter and me, but I know things aren’t as simple as that. I’m sure once she meets Natalia, she will fall in love with her, as everyone else has.

But there’s also Skull and Isla that she’ll need to accept.

And the MC.

And the fact that my brother is a part of me.

Yeah, I think I might be getting the better end of the deal.

But I know a few things. I can be faithful. I can give her anything she wants. And I can protect her with my brothers standing behind me. She’ll never want for anything, and she’ll always be treated like a queen.

“I want you too, baby. I’m not going to lie, I fucked around a lot before you?—”

“Yes, I gathered as much.”

“But I don’t want anyone else,” I say gently, kissing her temple.

She has no competition.

But that doesn’t mean she’s not going to have my past conquests thrown right into her face.

Fuck.

Three of them are in this clubhouse right now.

MEREDITH

“So, you’re a screamer, that’s good to know.” Suit smirks as I sit on the couch next to him while Nate is getting me a drink.

I don’t know if everyone told everyone that I was here, because suddenly the whole MC seems to be down here. Men, women, and children have all come over to say hello and introduce themselves. Natalia is down for a nap, though, so she and Isla are the only ones I’m yet to be formally introduced to.
