Hunter Hargreaves smiled from the stoop of the Devil’s Dragons bar as I parked my motorcycle and lifted Kate up off the seat. The bike groaned wearily as the ignition died. I understood the feeling.

My leader beamed with pride.

“Welcome home, Grizz.”

“Not home anymore,” I replied.

His eyebrow lifted. “So you pulled it off then?”

I shook his hand, letting him pull me into a solid hug. As we separated, I nodded. “New Orleans will treat us well for years to come. We have turf, connections, and I took care of a little competition.”

“I knew you could do it,” he grinned, turning to face my woman. “And who is this lovely young lady you’ve brought back with you?”

“Souvenir,” I chuckled.

Kate punched me in the arm while Hunter’s smile widened. “My name’s Kate. Grizz and I go way back.”

“Well Kate, any girl who can drag a sense of humor out of this hard-ass will always be a friend of mine,” Hunter laughed. “Listen, you two have had a long ride. Come in, rest up, and fill us in tomorrow morning.”

“Doesn’t have to wait,” I replied.

He met my gaze with more authority than I expected. “Take the night off, Grizz. That’s an order. Get your lady here settled in, and relax.”

“Fine. Business tomorrow,” I conceded, raising my palms up.

“Good. Now that that’s settled,” Hunter turned, holding the front door to the bar open, “Now take a damn load off!”

“Sounds good to me!” Kate piped up.

I stepped forward into the bar, unsure of what to expect. The entire Devil’s Dragons club was assembled, playing pool and kicking back beers when Victor glanced over and hushed the biker next to him.

Quiet fell over the entire club.

“Grizz just informed me,” Hunter spoke up, stepping in behind us and letting the door fall shut, “that he has succeeded in his mission.”

He came out in front and beamed with pride. “Boys… we’re going to New Orleans.”

Every beer in every hand rose up high as a cheer boomed across our headquarters. Disgruntled at the spotlight, I almost shrunk back a step, but Kate’s hand slipped into mine.

That’s right, I realized.

I’m not alone anymore…

Hunter clasped me firmly on the shoulder, turning to Kate. “You’re not pregnant, are you?”

I almost laughed when she looked offended. “What? No!”

“Good,” he winked. “Drinks are on the club tonight. Already got more than enough of that around here anyway. Last thing I need is a second pregnant woman in the club…”

“Wanna try that one again, sweetheart?”

Sarah’s voice called out from behind the corner. Hunter’s now heavily pregnant fiancé walked out to join the festivities, hand on the small of her back. She’d been growing her hair out, and it almost reached her shoulders now.

“You know I didn’t mean it, babe,” he grinned sheepishly.

“Yeah, yeah,” she scrunched up her face in mock irritation before turning to Kate. “Bikers. Bunch of assholes, these guys. But a heart of gold in every last one of ‘em here…”

I introduced Sarah to Kate, and while they were chatting, I pulled Hunter aside.

“What’s up, Grizz?”

“Brushed up with some old friends of the Dragons in Louisiana,” I grunted. “They had a bone to pick with the club. Have you ever done business out there?”

“El Paso’s the furthest east we’ve come out,” Hunter told me. “And Talon hasn’t stepped foot even this far from Los Angeles. What’s the name?”

“Call themselves the Bayou Boys. They’re a disgrace to motorcycle clubs everywhere. Or were…”

“Name doesn’t ring a bell. Did you catch a name of their leader?”

“Kate named a guy. Gridlock.”

“Gridlock?” He shook his head. “No idea.”

“That’s frustrating,” I growled. “The amount of trouble those fuckers gave me, and I’ll never know what the hell we did to piss their leader off like that.”

“Our club began the Outlaws, Grizz,” Hunter threw an arm around me. “We’re bound to step on some toes here and there. You remember all the death threats I was getting for a while there…”

“Yeah. Had to ride out into the desert and knock some heads,” I remembered. “Put the fear of God into some of them.”

“Good times,” Hunter smiled with a hint of mischief. “And that’s just the ones we were aware of. Aw hell, Grizz, we probably brushed up against dozens of thugs and clubs out for our heads, and never knew it.”

“One of life’s great unsolved mysteries, then,” I concluded with disappointment.

“You know, I’m surprised that we haven’t caught any serious heat for the fuckers we’ve been up against these last few months… we’ve been lucky to fly under the radar with all this shit.”

“Funny story about that…” I started to reply, before Kate suddenly grabbed me by the arm and started tugging me away.

“You can play with your boys tomorrow, Grizz,” Kate loudly laughed. “But after everything we’ve been through the last few days… tonight, you’re mine.”

The club laughed knowingly while Hunter raised a glass our way, a delighted smirk on his face. Sarah held his arm.

“Have fun, kids…”

I led Kate down to my room in the back of the bar, hanging a sock on the doorknob like a goddamn college kid.

Turning back onto Kate, I instantly pushed her down into my bunk. My lover giggled as I descended upon her a flurry of kisses, ripping her clothes off and tossing them aside.

She tried to even the field, but I kept her wrists pinned down every time she tried. Soon, I had Kate bare and sprawled out beneath me, squirming and complaining that I “needed to get naked too” and that it wasn’t “fair.”

“Life’s not fair sometimes,” I chuckled, holding her down with my weight while I moved to kiss her lips.

“Sometimes not, no,” she kissed me back, arms around the back of my neck. “But life has a way of making up for it…”

I lowered my face, working my way down her body. I peppered a trail of kisses along her sternum, down her stomach, into her thighs…

Without a moment’s hesitation, I hiked her thighs up over my shoulders and pressed my lips into her warm pussy. Kate threw her head back and moaned, fingers clutching into my hair.

“Damn, Grizz… you’re not waiting up for anything, are you?”

“Been long enough,” I grunted. “Too tired to fuck you last night, too long of a drive to fuck you today…”

It was true. We’d pretty much fallen straight asleep when we’d gotten to a new motel on the other side of the Lousianna border, and we hit the road in the morning without even bothering to stop for breakfast.

The long drive here had basically been totally nonstop, but we were here now and there wasn’t anything to stop us.

No vengeful ex-boyfriends…

No crazy chases through the night…

There was just Kate and myself, and the rest of the world could suck it – at least for this one night.

I flicked her clit with my tongue, my beard seeming to tickle her thighs as I tongue-fucked her. As she wriggled under me, he pushed a rugged finger into her wet pussy, fingering her just at the right spot while I sucked on her clit…

After what seemed like one mind-numbing orgasm later, she was pushing me onto my back and straddling me, unbuckling his belt impatiently.

“You’re too clothed,” she complained. “It’s been long enough…”

“Not arguing with that,” I smirked arrogantly, moving my hips to help remove her jeans.

But she didn’t bother tugging them completely off. Instead, she let them bind my shins together into some light bondage. Satisfied, she descended down between my thighs and slid her lips around my heavy cock, her eyes locked daringly onto mine.

“Oh God, Kate…”

Her tongue swirled around the red helmet of my cock, teasing me before she pushed her lips down, down, all the way down my hilt.

“Fuck…” I groaned huskily.

She drew back up, bobbing her head up and down my shaft, playing with my heavy balls in her cupped hand. She sucked me off for what felt like forever, and it felt fucking incredible.

I could have released my seed right then and there, but held my stamina and refused.

“You can get off into my mouth,” she cooed. “Grizz, you know I love the taste of your hot cum on my tongue…”

That did it.

I was not going to get off without her.

So, I tugged her up off of me, kicking off every last stitch of clothing on me before I tossed her palms up against the wall.

“Want it rough, huh?” She smirked.

“Don’t act like you don’t want it rough,” I growled, lining my cock up to her wet, ready slit. Without warning, I thrust a good few inches into her welcoming, velvety folds, feeling her tense up around me.

“Fuck, you’re hard tonight…”

“I’m always hard for you, Kate,” I murmured into her ear as I assumed the position behind her. “Just stand here and take it… take this hot, heavy piece of meat…”

“Don’t you need a condom?” She moaned.

“Not anymore. Hunter might not like the idea of another pregnant woman around the clubhouse, but I’m starting to warm up to the idea.”

“Shut up and fuck me,” she moaned.

So I did just that.

I pounded her warm, soft pussy into oblivion, my hard body pressed up against hers. I flipped her around to face me, hiking both legs up around my hips as I rolled my pelvis against hers, again and again…

The rest of the club must have heard every last loud moan out of her lips, but I didn’t give a rat’s ass.

Let them hear it, I thought.

Let them hear it all.

“Oh fuck, Grizz… I’m gonna come…”

“Do it, baby,” I commanded her. “Go on. Come on my cock, just like when we were teens. I want to feel you do it.”

“Oh Jesus – FUCK –”

Kate’s mouth gasped open as her entire body locked up, her pussy clamping onto my thick dick while I had her hilted.

It felt too fucking good.

I couldn’t help it.

She drained every last drop of my seed as I completely lost control, driving my cock as deep into her womb as I could. The feral beast came out inside me, and it forced me to empty my balls into Kate’s bare pussy.

“Did you just–”

“Yes,” I snarled into her throat, kissing deeply and passionately. “And I’m going to do it again and again, all goddamn night…”

“Oh Grizz,” she gasped into my ear, her limbs wrapped around me. “Let’s do it. Let’s just fuck all night like this… nothing between us this time…”

“Done,” I growled.

I dropped her down to the bed, both of us laughing.

If they heard any of that, I grinned wickedly to myself, then they’d better get goddamn used to it… I’m just getting started.

Possessed by something ferocious and utterly primal, I descended down upon my lover into the sheets, with a cock hard enough to last me a good few more hours of mindless fucking…
