Piper

I snuggle closer into the warm, solid chest in front of me, loving the feeling of Cade’s arms around me. He wasn’t kidding when he said he wanted to take his time with me last night. I can’t even count the number of times he made me cum, but there were a lot. Honestly, I don’t even know how he has a hard on right now.

I lift my chin and grin at him. “Again?”

His beautiful face lights up with a devilish grin. “Your naked body against me makes me horny. My cock is always ready when it comes to you.”

I chew on the corner of my lower lip, doing my best to hide my pleased smile. I love that he always wants me, but I want to know more about him.

I trace my fingers down his toned chest. “Shouldn’t we talk some? Our relationship can’t be solely about sex—no matter how amazing it may be. If we’re running away together, I want to know what I’m getting into since I know nothing about you.”

He adjusts his head on the pillow. “What is it you want to know about me?”

Everything. But I don’t say that out loud. Guys like Cade don’t spill their secrets easily. We’ll need to build up to that point.

“For now, how about some basics? Is Cade your real name? What’s your last name? How old are you? Where did you grow up?”

He chuckles. “Damn. You a cop?”

Heat rushes to my cheeks and it occurs to me it’s one of the first times I’ve ever really heard him laugh. It’s nice.

I prop my head up with one hand as I stare down at him. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to make it seem like an interrogation. I want to get to know you.”

He stares at me and I get lost in his gray eyes. “There’s really not a whole hell of a lot about me that’s interesting. Cade is actually my last name—first name is Kevin and I’m twenty-nine.” He reaches up and traces my jaw with his fingertips. “Now it’s my turn.”

I grimace, fully aware it’s my turn in the question hot seat. “What do you want to know?”

“How come you steer clear of your father? Before that first time I met you in the bar, I staked out your place for days and checked out your social media sites. Based on a few posts I found, you seem to hate him.”

“I do hate him,” I mutter. “I hate what he stands for and how he treated my mom. He wasn’t a part of the club when he and Mom got together, so things were good between them until he joined the Disciples. After that, he cheated on her and expected her to just put up with it. When she tried to leave him, he threatened to kill her, so she stayed even though she was unhappy because she was scared. When he became president, he started spending all his of time at the clubhouse and told Mom he was tired of her shit and he gave her to his club—made her a whore for guys to use as they saw fit. They took turns raping her, and my father did nothing. It wasn’t until they nearly killed her, did my father decide he would allow Mom to leave and take me with her. I refused to have anything to do with him ever again. He’s an evil man.”

“So you let me take your cherry to get back at him? Was that why you let me fuck you?”

I shake my head. “He had nothing to do with why I let you have me. The moment I saw you, I knew you were the one.”

He cocks his head to the side. “Why was that?”

“I knew you wouldn’t be afraid of my father,” I confess. “If you had the balls to talk to me the way you did, then I knew he wouldn’t scare you. That’s the kind of man I want to be with. Someone who will make me feel safe from everything bad in this fucked up world.”

“I’ll protect you forever, Piper. You’re mine. Ain’t nobody going to take you away from me.”

When he says possessive caveman things like that, butterflies flutter all around my belly. I never understood why women liked to be claimed by a man before, until I met Cade. It’s a complete fucking turn on to know he would take the whole world on for me if I needed him to.

I lean in and press my lips to his, needing to be close to him. He obliges and sweeps his tongue in my mouth before he rolls me on to my back.

His cock slides inside me I moan and get lost in Cade once again.

After we finish showering together, I frown when I step back into the room wearing nothing but a towel.

Cade wraps a towel around his waist, beads of water peppering his chest as he struts out of the bathroom looking like a Greek God. He takes in my face and stops dead in his tracks. “What’s wrong?”

I pick up the uniform I wear at the diner and rub my thumbs over the course material. “I don’t have any clean clothes.”

He slides his finger under my chin and our eyes meet. “Looks like it’s time to take my girl shopping.”

I could argue with him, but when a man like Cade offers to do something nice, you accept it. He’s not the kind of guy who looks like he accepts no for an answer.

I nod and he kisses me gently.

Once we’re dressed, we head out to the bike to the freeway, where we ride until we come to an exit with a large mall. Cade pulls into the parking lot and cuts the engine. “We should be able to find everything you need here.”

He takes my hand and leads me through the parking lot and into the entrance of the building. The moment we’re inside, it seems every head in the vicinity turns in our direction. I’m sure we’re a sight to see together—me in my uniform and Cade looking like his bad-ass self. Women bite their lower lip as Cade passes by, and I resist the urge give them a smug smile because I’m the one who’s with him. Not them.

We cross a lingerie shop, and Cade leads me inside. “Get whatever you want.”

I stare up at him wide-eyed, unsure of what to get because I’ve never bought underwear knowing I’ll be wearing it for a specific man before. I glance around the store, and my eyes land on a garter belt.

The corner of his mouth turns up when he catches me looking at the garment. “Get it. You can wear it for me later.” He leans in and whispers in my ear, “And I’ll take it off with my teeth.”

A tingle rushes down my spine, and suddenly I’m excited. What else I can get in here to have him take off of me later?

Cade pats my ass. “Go on. The sooner we get what you need, the sooner we can find another hotel.”

We spend the next couple of hours buying all the essentials I’ll need for a life on the road with Cade. Once I have everything I need, and we’ve packed it all in a backpack and the saddlebags on his bike, we’re back on the road. It doesn’t take long for us to cross out of California and into Nevada.

A sign for Vegas sits on the side of the road as we ride by, and I say, “Vegas isn’t far. Maybe we should take a detour and get married.”

I expect him to laugh at my joke, but he doesn’t. Instead, he cranks his wrist, revving the engine, and takes the exit going North. It seems I’ve just proposed to my sexy biker, and he’s accepted, which causes my stomach to flip with excitement.
