She leaned in closer and whispered, “Did you orgasm?”
I nodded and flushed red. “So many times. It was truly magical.”
Jenny clapped. “I'm so happy for you, Rachael. But isn't this guy a criminal?”
I thought about it for a moment. “You know, I'm not actually sure. He's apart of a motorcycle club and that's really all I know.”
“You need to be careful, Rachael. I don't want you getting hurt.”
I looked down at the floor. “I think I'm falling for him.”
“I can't believe it. My Rachael lost her virginity and found love all in one night. This must be one hell of a guy.”
“He really is, Jenny. I can't wait for you to meet him.”
“Well what are we waiting for, let's go out and celebrate.”
“What time is it?” I checked the clock on the microwave and it was only eleven in the morning. “Don't you think it's a tad too early to go out.”
Jenny laughed. “You're probably right. How about tonight then.”
“I'm supposed to be seeing Ace tonight.”
Jenny pushed me. “You dog. Can't keep your hands off him.” All I could think about was Ace taking me from behind in the shower, pounding me into oblivion.
“I have tomorrow night off work so we can get drinks then.”
Jenny smiled and hugged me. “It's a date.”
I left her in the kitchen and went to my bedroom. I felt like a stranger in my own house. I'd only been gone a short while but suddenly all the stuffed animals lining my bed felt a little immature. I pushed them off and plopped down on the bed. I stared up at the ceiling with my hands behind my head.
What happens next?
My conversation with Jenny made me realize that I didn't know much about Ace. He was so kind to me and saved my life—but I saw him gun down that Mexican and who knows how many other people he's killed. Could I really love a man like that?
“Yes,” I said out loud. My eyelids felt heavy and my body sunk into the comforter. I was completely exhausted from last night. So many things happened. I closed my eyes and pictured Ace spreading my legs and thrusting into me. I smiled before drifting off to sleep.
Chapter Fourteen
Ace
Rachael clouded my thoughts. How was I supposed to get anything done when I couldn't stop thinking about her?
I drove to the MC fantasizing about our time in the shower. Her lips over my erection, taking me in her mouth. It was so erotic. I was falling for her—falling for her hard. But was I the right guy for her? I lived in a dark world and she was so bright. The last thing I wanted to do was extinguish her. The restaurant was the perfect example—one night with me and she almost died. If she stayed with me, how much longer could she survive? I could protect her but something always goes wrong. I couldn't take that risk with Rachael. No matter how much I wanted to fuck her brains out.
What the fuck am I going to do?
I pulled into the parking lot of The Burger Joint. A line was forming outside and it was barely noon. Apparently, business was booming. Maybe Rowan was right about opening up a second location. I went inside the restaurant and through the back door.
Zane was sitting at the bar, reassembling his gun and Maverick was nursing a beer. Girls and members from other charters were passed out on the floor. The prospect, Myles, had two girls snoring on top of him. Must have been some party last night.
Zane left his guns alone and slapped me on the back. “God damn, Ace, it's good to see you're okay.”
“Thanks, Zane.” I shook his hand.
Rowan was sitting at a table going over some papers and nodded to me.
“Where's Hammer?” I asked.
Maverick pointed to the meeting room, taking a sip of beer. “He's pretty stressed out.”
“Aren't we all?” I replied.
I opened the door to find the Dark Steel table covered in guns. Hammer was going over each one, making sure they worked. “I'm
