“Who the fuck gave you a gun?” He jerks back. Then looking at my ensemble with a smirk
I tuck the gun safely back in its hiding spot. “You can blame the Viking oaf over there.” I nod my head toward Alexander. “Make yourselves comfortable, I guess. Pardon my absence as I make myself more presentable.” I curtsy sarcastically. I stomp my way to the bedroom, but Alexander beat me to it.
“Need some help?” He sits on the bed, leaning back, taking in my braless and sweatpants clad form.
“From you? No thanks. Next time you want to bring a group of men into my house, give me a heads up. I’ll be dressed better.” I wink, finding one of my bras to put on and taking off the sweatpants throwing back his way.
He yanks me from behind and settles me into his lap. “I don’t share.” He plants a kiss on my shoulder, “Ever.” He nips hard, marking me.
“At least with a heads up, I could have put on a bra orbetterpants.” I strip off my shirt. He can deal with aslightpunishment.
“I mean, could go without. I won’t have a problem.” He trails a finger across the top of my breasts, sending goosebumps down my arms.
“When I was at the door, I didn’t have pants on. But I’m definitely more comfortable without a bra. I can keep flaunting them, if that’s what you want?” My bratty comment earns me a twist to the nipple.
“Keep talking,” he growls. “Don’t forget one thing, Little Cub.” He punctuates each word with a kiss on each of my breasts. I reach behind his head and scratch his scalp with my nails. He’ll be putty in no time.
“What’s that?” I get a strong whiff of him, his woods and peppermint scent. Such a strange combination, but it works for him.
“You belong to me.” He peppers more kisses along my shoulders, easing himself back up. Getting up and placing my feet back on the floor. He looks at me with those damn breathtaking baby blue eyes.
“Uh huh, you may have mentioned that. But one thing,” I smile at him, batting my eyelashes.
“And….” he says, inches away from my face.
I grab his leather cut and pull him to me, claiming his lips for a hard and fast kiss. “You belong to me, Alexander.” I’m dying to climb this man like a tree, if it wasn’t for the other men in my home who I have no interest in being here when I do.
“There’s my wild cub.” He waits for a moment, admiring the view. “Get dressed before Rawlings comes in and your walls suddenly turn red.” He leaves me standing there, my thoughts racing with ideas.
I rush to put the bra on and find a sweatshirt and jean shorts, then trot my way into the living room.. “Alright, I’m guessing this is about tonight’s festivities.” I lean against the tv stand. “Also, did you really need an entourage, Rawlings?”
Rawlings rolls his eyes. “Don’t get yourself in a twist.” He scuffs before continuing, “Now, you’ll walk in with Matthew, someone not well known as part of the club. Matthew will enter with you. Joaquin and Alexander will enter on their own to scope out your boss. Once that happens, one of the prospects will make a scene where Sheldon is escorted out, and we’ll take it from there.” He leans onto his knees, reaching into his pocket for a cigarette. He slowly puts the box back into his pocket when I give him a death glare.
“So essentially, do my normal day job?” That seems easy enough.
He grins as he leans back. “Exactly.”
“Can I ask what you plan on doing with Sheldon once you have him?” My curiosity peaks.
“You really want to know?” Rawlings sneers out.
“Kinda why I asked.” I respond.
“We’ll convince him to leave the city and cut all ties. If doesn’t work..” He trails
“Then violence.” I finish. He taps his nose.
Rawlings runs his hands down his thighs before standing. “You are the first line of defense.” Rawlings tilts my chin up, and I can hear Alexander growl.
“Rawlings, kindly take your hand away before there’s blood on my hardwood floor.” He withdraws his hand.
“And this required all of you to show up at my house?” I ask.
Rawlings just shrugs. “Yes and no. Joaquin’s here to finally install security cameras and Matthew usually helps him.” Alexander gets up and wraps his arms around me from behind.
I tense. “And Rawlings is here to make sure I don’t kill you in the process…”
“I figured you would fight me on this.”
