Bikers and Tinsel

Prologue

Muff

“You’d make a cute Santa,” Serenity grins, skipping along beside me.

I give her a foul look, to which her grin widens.

“Why do you all assume that because I’ve got red hair, I would make the best Santa? Jackson is the oldest - make him do it.”

“He’s too mean.”

I chuckle. “Is that what I need to be? Mean?

Serenity giggles, and hooks her arm through mine. “You don’t need to be mean, just your charming self...maybe if you get a bit fatter...”

I grin down at her. “Dream on, princess. This belly isn’t goin’ anywhere. The ladies love it, you know.”

“Hey, I thought it was all for Janine now?”

I chuckle softly. “Yeah, princess, it’s all for her, and trust me...she loves it.”

She flushes and looks away, and I know she’s thinking about the ménage I had with her and Jackson. It was a night I wouldn’t be forgetting any time soon, and, by the color in her cheeks, she wouldn’t either.

“If I recall, you loved it too...”

She smacks me on the arm. “Don’t make me regret it, Muff!”

I laugh and wrap an arm around her, pulling her close. “You’d never regret it!”

“No,” she sighs. “You’re probably right about that.”

“I don’t blame you, princess. I’m hard to get over.”

“You, hard to get over? Dream on buddy!”

I hear Jackson’s voice from behind us, and I grin, turning and hugging Serenity closer. “Don’t judge her Jack’s, she really can’t help the fact that my mouth is...”

“Careful, Muff,” Jackson scoffs, leaning forward and gripping Serenity by her shoulders, then pulling her to his side.

Serenity lets out a sweet-as-shit little giggle. “Now, now, you two, you know Jackson is my number one...”

“In real life,” I add in a teasing tone. “No one said anything about fantasies.”

Serenity laughs softly, and looks up at Jackson. “Are we almost ready to go?”

“We sure are, darlin’.”

“Let’s get this party started then!” I grin, slapping my hands together.

We’re heading up to the mountains for Christmas. After all the bullshit that went down recently with the clubs, we decided a Christmas away was exactly what we all needed. Snow, eggnog, one hell of a hot spa, and log cabins—sounds fuckin’ perfect to me. There aren’t many occasions where we all get to spend time away from the club just to enjoy our lives and our family. We’re going up alone for two nights, and then the kids will follow so we can all spend Christmas day together.

However, a group of bikers in cabins for a few days could prove to be...

Interesting.

Chapter 1

Ho’ Ho’ Ho’

Janine

“So, are you and Muff going to get your freak on the entire time we’re up there?” Addison asks, wiggling her eyebrows at me.

I smile, feeling my cheeks heat. “Well, that’s for me to know and...”

“Yeah yeah, me not to know.” She pouts.

“All that snow...I could do the old ‘Hold me, I’m frozen,’ trick.”

Addison giggles, and tosses a thick coat into her suitcase. “That’s a good one. I might try that. Cade has his cranky pants on - God knows, the man needs to get laid.”

“Who needs to get laid?” Ciara calls out, skipping into the room.

“Cade.” I chuckle.

“Oh, I think all of those angry bikers need to get laid.”

“I got laid this morning,” Serenity says, walking into the room, and wrapping her arm around my shoulder.

“Ew,” we all say, scrunching our noses.

“Well, y’all are whining about not getting laid, I figured I’d add some Christmas cheer in.”

“Are you all packed?” I ask her. “You know you can’t wear sexy lingerie up there, don’t you?”

She wiggles her brows at me. “I most certainly can...fireplace...warm biker...”

I frown. “I have a cold bed...”

They all laugh softly. “Let the man in your pants, and it won’t matter.”

I wave a hand, stepping away from Serenity and reaching into my suitcase to triple check I have my coat. “I just...he’s not pushing the issue...I know he’s being respectful, but damn, it’s getting hard to look at him and not jump his bones. I want to push it, but, God...”

“Push it for him, don’t be shy,” Ciara says, pulling on a pair of boots.

“What if he...doesn’t want to?”

They all give me horrified expressions.

“Are you freaking serious?” Addison says, throwing her hair up and fastening it with a clip. “The man strips you down and fucks you with his eyes every time you’re in the same room.”

I bite my lip. Does he? Muff and I have been going steady for a few months now, but we haven’t had sex. I wasn’t sure if it was me, or him, or if we were just not as serious as I would hope. I don’t really want to consider that, because he is my little ray of sunshine at the end of a very dark tunnel. I’ve been basically left alone, with debts to clean up and a little girl asking about her daddy. It hasn’t been easy.

“He cares, J...” Ciara says, her voice going soft. “Trust us.”

I lift my head, smiling. “I know; it’s okay. I’m sure this weekend will be the perfect opportunity for us to...”
