Five minutes later, the floorboards creak as he comes back. “Here.”
“You brought me coffee, in bed? Damn, Northport you are upping your game.”
“I made it just how you like it.”
I took the warm mug from him, testing it.
“You did.”
“Breakfast is up,” Tank bellows from downstairs, breaking the moment.
“Better get out of bed, princess,” he seals my fate with a quick, hard kiss and a slap on my ass as I get up.
“Neanderthal.” I return the smack with a wink as I enter the bathroom. “And by the way… I hate PDA. Keep your hands and lips off me in public. I have a rep to maintain.”
“Well, see about that, Savvy…”
“What the hell,Savvy?” I check myself out in the mirror. My eyes are sparkling. My skin has a rosy glow.
My heart feels giddy and light, like a balloon going up and up in the sky. I want to float on this high and never come back down to Earth.
CHAPTER 8
“What?You obviously wanna say something. Let’s have it out?” I growled, dropping the two fifty pound barbells in my hands.
Tank grunts as he finishes his squats.
Our eyes lock in the gym mirror.
“It doesn’t feel right. We need another angle. That girl is too nice for this MC shit.” His thick finger pikes me in the chest.
“She’s lying her ass off right back. She told me she’s from Texas. I grunt,” towering over him. He might have more meat but I have the height advantage.
We’d both been dating Brandi and Savvy for a few weeks. Lines were past burry. I’d lie my ass off if asked directly by my men, but Savvy was beginning to feel like my legit girl, not just revenge.
I slept in her bed more than mine.
My tongue’s tasted every square inch of her body and yet… I haven’t claimed her as mine.
“What happened to Danny needs to be answered. Period. But not like this… with you toying with her like that.”
“I like her, too. A lot. But she’s still our enemies blood. Her father my rival. I will find out exactly what she knows about her father’s Club… when the time is right. “What’s up with Brandi anyway… you gonna hit it and split it when we go back home?”
“Are you?”
“I haven’t slept with Savannah… yet. We’ve just mess around.”
Tank’s eyes widen in disbelief.
“I’m still not sure how to play things. Once I cross that line…”
“Brandi… she’s the woman I wish I met back home. She thinks she’s with someone with real prospects. I feel kinda bad about lying about well everything, too. I know how ya’ feel. But I’m fucking her good.”
“Nah, bro. She’s using you right back.”
“Yeah, probably. Maybe someday when you get your head out of your ass I’ll tell her what’s up before we go back to Santa Fe. She can decide then if we’re still hooking up if she wants to come with.”
“It’s kind of hard to hate Savvy. Especially when her fire is so damn sexy. I forget what it’s like to have a woman just like you for you… the Club girls are just patch chasers.”
