Biker Bound: The Lost Souls MC Series by Ellie R Hunter Page B

Slade back at the club was off the scale.” She laughs.
    “Oh that, that was nothing. He was just being polite and friendly.”
    “How long has it been since you had male company?”
    I didn’t need any time to think about my answer.
    “The last time was when I was with Billy.”
    “Oh God, no wonder you were about to combust earlier,” she laughed.
    “I’ve been busy with Zachery. I haven’t had time for myself in a long time,” I admit.
    “Then please stay, get to know me so I can babysit and you can have some freedom,” she continues, laughing.
    I actually like the sound of that, not palming my son off on someone so I can go out but the thought of getting to know someone well enough to share my life with and finally having the time to have a friend.
    “I like the sound of that,” I smile.
    Before we know it, the time slips away and the day turns to evening. Alannah offers to cook us dinner and I accept. Zachery has been on his best behaviour today and fell asleep in my arms shortly after dinner. He stayed asleep in the car back to the motel and even as I got him out of his seat and into the room.
    After I was showered and about to climb into bed, I noticed the air-conditioning was in good working order again.
    Did the manager actually fix it after my earlier complaint or did Slade have something to do with it?
     

Chapter Seven
     
    Slade
     
    To say I was pissed last night that I didn’t get to see Kristen was a fucking understatement.
    Her flirting banter yesterday had me harder than I have ever been before, it took hours to get her out of my head. It did occur to me I could relieve myself in one the club girls but the actual thought of doing that repulsed me. In a strange way I didn’t want to taint my fantasies about Kristen in that way.
    If she wants me to tempt her to stay I have no problem doing that. I will tempt her so bad she’ll put down roots in this town and never leave.
    “You okay brother?” Sparky asks, “You’re staring into space pretty hard.”
    “Just thinking,” I tell him.
    “About the girl?”
    “She has a name you know, and I was thinking where the fuck is Linc and the guys? I’ve got shit to do and places to be,” I lie.
    “We’re early brother, they won’t be long, what’s this really about? You haven’t been yourself in a while.”
    “I appreciate your concern but I’m just fine.”
    Most of the time I forget about Billy, but then he’s forefront in my mind and I remember she has his kid. Then I remember they weren’t an item but then she turns me on so fucking much I forget everything.
    I feel his hand on my shoulder as the thunder of bikes pull up behind us.
    There is no one around for miles and we can do business in peace.
    About fucking time I think to myself swinging my leg over and off my bike. I don’t really do a lot at this point apart from act as backup in case any trouble occurs.
    Everyone greets everyone from each club and then Linc’s boys get on with transferring the weapons to their bikes.
    “Run into any trouble on the way down?” Cas asks Linc, lighting up a cigarette.
    “None, the ride was pretty smooth.”
    I can’t be bothered to listen in to their chit chat today or any other day to be honest. I don’t usually feel comfortable around them and today is no different. I don’t say anything to my brothers because it is only my personal opinion and they have never turned on us.
    “Is that Kristen girl still about?” Linc asks.
    My neck nearly cracks as it whips round so fast. Why the fuck would he want to know about her? More importantly, how the fuck does he even know about her?
    “I wasn’t aware you met her old man?” Cas says, casually.
    “She arrived as we were leaving last week, nice rack on her and her fierce mouth. Christ, I’d soon put that to good use,” he jeers.
    It is my next movement that I will look back on as the moment my life changed forever.
    Maybe it helps that I’m not as bonded with our supporting MC and
