“I don’t have any man in my life!” I state as I lift my chin, I see his shoulders relax,his eyes intense as he looks at me. He approaches me slowly, when he is but a step away, he stops, his hand lifting he holds my chin between his index finger and thumb.
“You are wrong vixen; you have a man in your life now, the only man in your life.” I can see his eyes lower to my lips and I know he wants to kiss me but then he lets go of my chin and is stepping away.
“Dream on.” I mutter breathlessly, but honestly his wordshavemy stomach knotting in excitement. “What did you mean you were leaving? Are you going to go looking for Linda?”Heturns, I notice that he has Cat’s on, which tells me that he is nearly ready to go, he just needs his t-shirt.
“Yes.”
“Wait, I’m coming with you”Hestops and then turns.
“No, you are not.”
“Look here, I told you that I wanted to be involved in finding my sister. If you don’t let me come, then I am going to go looking for her by myself.” At my words he snaps around a scowl on his face.
“This is dangerous, it’s not like going shopping.” He places his hands low on his hips as he looks at me.
“Really,” I say sarcastically, “I didn’t know that.”
“You are going to be a handful, aren’t you?” I shrug, “fine, but you have to do everything I tell you when we are out there.” At his words I frown, I’m not very good at following someone else’sinstructionsbut he doesn’t have to know that yet, I’m sure he will find out soon enough. “Nowget ready, we need to meet the others soon.”
I don’t reply as I hurry to take a pair of jeans and a clean t-shirt out of my traveling bag before I hurry into the bathroom. I hear Hawk moving around in the room as I get ready, tying my hair back in a ponytail,I look in the mirror to see myself, pulling the mascara out of my makeup bag.I darken my eyelashes before zipping up my bag. When I finally walk out, I find Hawk in the corner of the room texting. When he sees me, his eyes travel over my clad body, and I see what looks like approval on his face which for some weird sense gives me pleasure.
“Let’s go.”Hestarts making his way towards the front door and I follow. We make our way out of the cottage and then Hawk is guiding me up the path towards the main house. When we break through the forest, I see four guys standing outside the main house and all of them are looking at us approaching.
“About time, I thought I had to come down there and get you out of bed.” One of the guys quips.
“Fuck off!” Hawkmuttersand I feel his thumb stroking my lower back comfortingly. “Onix, big mouth over there is Dash”
“Hey beautiful, welcome to the family.”
“What?” I must have heard him wrong; do they all think that I’m Hawks mate? I see the men look at Hawk with a questioning expression.
“She knows but she doesn’t want to accept it.” Hawk states with a shrug which has me glancing at him and glaring.
“Well she will soon realize once you bonded there is no going back.” Another man says.
“You must really suck in bed if she doesn’t want you as a mate.” Dash states which has myangerrising, how dare they judge Hawk just because I don’t like to be coursed into things and have a mind of my own.
“For your information he is great in bed!” I state as I frown at Dash, I see him grin and then wink at Hawk. Why is it with men that it always comes down to sexual prowess?
“I’m just messing with him.” Dash says with a grin which has my anger diminishing as his light green eyes crinkle in amusement.
“Where’s King?” Hawk asks.
“Left a few minutes ago.”Oneof the guys states.
“I’ll introduce you to King later, he is our Alpha and the President of the Wolverine MC,” he then points to a big mountain of a man, his hair flowing around his shoulders as he sits relaxed on a Harley, his amber eyes taking everything in. “That there is Goliath.”Heinclines his head in greeting but doesn’t say anything.
“That one over there is Hunter and Dakota’s mate.”
“Hi Sweetheart.”Hemurmurs with a wink, as I look at the men before me, I see how very different they are from each other, but allaredrop dead handsome in their own way.
“This here is Fang, and the enforcer for the Wolverine MC.” Fang smiles, and the smile transforms his face from the dangerous looking biker to a carefree boy. Hawk points to the man standing next to Fang, “and this is Blue, he’s our entertainer.”
“Hi guys” I murmur as I continue looking at Blue, “I’m sure I have seen you somewhere before.”
“Blue is a musician, a well-known one at. . .”
“Oh, of course.” I interrupt Hawk as I realize who Blue is, “I love your music.” I hear Hawk grunt from next to me, but I don’t glance at him as I see Blue grin.
