Walking up to Gage with a new pep in my step, I fisted my hands in his kutte and jerked him to me, and then I returned the favor and kissed him silly.
Catcalls and wolf whistles came from the guys.
Pulling my lips away from his, I marveled at the dazed look in his eyes, and then I warned, “If you ever hang up on me without me being able to tell you I love you right back I will gut you.”
Letting him go, I patted his chest then headed to the SUV to ride with Collins.
It wasn’t until I was sitting inside the SUV beside Collins and about to close the door when I heard Gage yell out, “You mean to tell me you love me?”
Looking into his eyes where he still stood, I said, “With every breath I take.”
Then I closed the door. I laughed while Collins was giggling.
The rumble from the bikes caused Collins to squeal in laughter and I knew I would never do anything that would stop her from squealing and her face lighting up with pure excitement.
And what I loved about all of this was that it wasn’tGuns N’ Rosessinging the song that was on repeat. It was Gage’s voice that rolled out of the speakers.
When we’ve been to the clubhouse with Gage numerous times, I always thought that there had been a lot of bikes. But seeing this many? Holy shit.
There had to be at least over a hundred bikes.
Climbing out of the SUV when it came to a stop, I helped Collins out as she took in all the bikes as well.
“This is definitely going to be a biker party.” She said with laughter in her voice.
Gage stepped to our side after he backed his bike in the line with the others.
He offered his arm to Collins and then winked at me.
Fifteen minutes later, we were all gathered outside in the courtyard with Pokémon decorations and platters of food sat out on long tables.
The number of bikes wasn’t even close to how many people had dropped whatever they were doing to get here in time.
Cam whistled to get everyone’s attention, and then the music was stopped.
Powers nodded then said, “Today started out with giving someone that is near and dear to all of us a day to remember for however long we had her light on all of us. But thankfully, and because one of our brothers did something monumentally huge, something where there are no words for, this party changed into something else. So, Collins, can you come over here, please?”
I released my hold on her as she walked to Powers.
“Today we are celebrating that the treatment for Collins worked. Her latest scan shows no cancer cells.” And that was when everyone whooped with excitement.
Then Skinner called from where he stood, with Harlow in his arms and their daughter standing at their side. “And if she needs another transplant, I’ll be there.”
There wasn’t a dry eye in the house after all that was said.
Collins stayed at our sides as she hung out with Laci, Chelsea, Rosa, Hailey, and Wren.
However, when I walked to the tables to get a plate of food, I noticed Gage was talking to Collins and then he showed her something, and then I watched her nod, and then she threw her arms around him.
I started to head their way until I stopped myself. Even though I wanted to know what they were talking about, I let them have their moment.
Because according to what Gage said, we were his, and he was ours.
The man I had been introduced to as Asher; I don’t think he realized that the look he had sent to a young girl had gone unnoticed. Seeing his jaw ticking and the fist around his beer bottle tightening when some other man had sat down beside the young girl?
That was the look of a possessed alpha man if I have ever seen one. Sure, I’ve seen that look from the brothers of Wrath MC and even from Gage, but none of them has been quite like this look.
She was gorgeous in a girl next door kind of way. And the girl sitting beside her. Now that I’m getting a closer look at her, she resembles Asher. Perhaps that’s his daughter? Maybe?
