look
forward to. According to what he heard, Kaleb was meeting Zoey and V at
Moonshiners later, and Zane had invited himself to tag along. He wasn’t going
to miss his chance to corner V again. It seemed that might be the only way he
would get to spend some time with her.
    He
didn’t bother her that morning like he wanted to, mainly because he knew how
skittish V was. She reminded him of an abused animal. She wanted to trust, but
she wasn’t quite to the point where she would open herself up yet, but she was
noticeably getting better. She needed space. And after Zane managed to get her
to commit to allowing him to pursue her, he figured he’d back off. A little.
    He
found it amusing that she still wanted to reiterate that whatever this was
between them was just sex. Sex with her was certainly on his agenda because
what red blooded man wouldn’t jump at the opportunity to have V wrapped around
him like a fucking blanket. Shit, Zane had never known anything quite like it,
and he wasn’t about to let go of it if he had a say in the matter.
    “Awww,
shit. Another one bites the dust.” Sawyer’s sarcasm broke into Zane’s thoughts.
He glanced over to see his brother smirking at him.
    “What
the hell are you talking about?” He dared to ask the question.
    “Fuck,
bro. You’re sitting over there grinning like a fucking girl in love.”
    Zane
glowered at his brother, but then he broke into a smile. It was harder and
harder to get irritated with his brothers at this point. He had just missed
them so damn much while he’d been in the hospital. He had enough anger and
hatred boiling deep in his gut from the assault that he couldn’t find it in him
to let anything else get to him at the moment.
    “Do
you really want to go there?” Zane questioned, laughing. “I’ve heard some
stories about you and a pretty little Sheriff’s daughter that we could relive
if you’d like.”
    Sawyer’s
eyebrows darted downward, a frown replacing his smirk. There was clearly
something going on between Sawyer and Kennedy Endsley, but Zane only knew as
much as he’d heard from his brothers and Beau, which honestly wasn’t much.
    “Are
you planning to return to work soon?” Sawyer redirected the conversation,
clearly wanting to change the subject.
    The
question caught Zane off guard, and he tried to get a read on Sawyer’s
intentions. Did his brother want him to go back to work? Was Ethan having problems
managing the shop while he’d been away? He hadn’t heard anything, but that
didn’t mean they weren’t keeping secrets from him. But this was also exactly
the opening he needed.
    “I’ve
been giving that some thought.”
    Sawyer’s
eyebrow cocked as though he was waiting for the rest of Zane’s explanation.
    Zane
hadn’t prepared for this conversation yet and he had a hard time finding the
right words... “I want in on the resort.” Well hell. That wasn’t what he
had in mind.
    “What
do you want to do?” Again Sawyer asked the question while Kaleb looked on.
    “Don’t
know. What do you need me to do?”
    “I
thought you liked being a mechanic,” Kaleb interjected, frowning before he
continued. “Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s terrific that you want to be
involved in the resort, actually. We never thought to talk to you about it
because you always seemed married to your job.”
    Married
to his job? That was funny.
    Yes,
Zane enjoyed working on cars and trucks, but that hadn’t necessarily been his
long term goal. As the youngest Walker, he’d had to fit in with his brother’s
goals because Walker Demo had been started long before he was old enough to work.
    With
Travis being ten years older, the oldest of them all, Zane didn’t have much of
a say in what he started out doing. Not that he hadn’t enjoyed it. Being a
mechanic had been all he needed, but thanks to the recent road bumps he’d
stumbled over, he was ready to move forward. And it wasn’t like Ethan didn’t
have some buddies who would be able
