Pulling the burgers, fries and onion rings from the bag I slid some of the food over to Ash, leaving a huge pile in front of me.

“You got her something as well, I see.” A hint of a smile tugged at my partner’s lips.

“Why would you say that?”

“I’ve never seen you scarf down five burgers from Cannon’s before – at least not with sides added to it.”

“She’s gotta eat, doesn’t she?”

“She’s only been in there a few hours, I’m sure she won’t waste away that quickly.”

“Still… We’re not complete barbarians. Besides, she’s so thin I don’t think it would take long for her to waste away as you put it.”

“This also isn’t the Holiday Inn,” he added, “We don’t offer a free continental breakfast with every stay.”

Chuckling, I stood. “I’ll go get her.”

“I suggest you take some duct tape or rope. If you think she won’t try to escape the moment you plunk her ass in that chair you got another thing coming,” he said, nodding to the armchair across the table from me.

“I have something better.” Grabbing the gun from the holster that I had hidden under my vest, I stood. “If she tries to run, I’ll shoot her in the leg.”

“Guess that would stop her. Might go against Talon’s instructions that she stay unharmed though.”

With a departing shrug, I made my way down the corridor. Approaching her door, I brought my gun up to the ready and rapped on the door. “I’m going to let you come out to eat. If you try to escape, I’ll shoot you.” Unlocking the door, I pocketed the key and turned the knob.

This was one fucking delicious burger, I thought as I took a huge bite from the juicy patty. It was a well-done patty of goodness; the burst of flavors assaulting my palate was nothing short of divine. Easily the best burger in the country – if not the world. Not like I had much experience traveling outside of the USA, my rap sheet was so long no country in their right mind would let me in.

Bringing the burger back up to my mouth I stopped in mid-bite when I heard my partner yell, “Stop or I’ll fucking shoot you!”

Fuck my life. I wasn’t sure what I was more concerned about: her escaping or Phoenix actually shooting her. He tended to be a tad impulsive at times. A moment later, she appeared, her dark hair flying wildly about as she stopped in the middle of the room to survey her surroundings. Her onyx eyes spotted the doorway – her ticket to freedom – and she launched forward.

“Nope.” Tossing the burger back onto the wrapper, I leapt over the coffee table. She was seconds from freedom when I tackled her. As we hit the hard, wooden floor I heard an oooph sound coming from her as the wind was knocked out of her from the force of my weight coming to land on her. I could have grabbed her, rather than colliding with her, sending her spiraling with me on top of her, but she needed to be taught a lesson. Trying to escape comes with consequences.

“Fucking little bitch,” Phoenix growled from behind me.

“I told you to get some rope.”

Despite being winded and having someone that was nearly twice her weight covering her, she fought under me as if her life depended on it – and it just might. Her ass wiggled and moved, rubbing against my dick.

It took a moment to secure her, she was a wiry little wildcat, but I was eventually able to grab her wrists and pin them to the floor, leaving her spread-eagled under me. The movement against my dick continued as she squirmed, attempting to free herself, causing my arousal to spike and my cock to swell, pressing against my jeans.

“Fucking stop it!” I growled, my lips close to her ear. As I spoke, I caught a whiff of her perfume. It was faint, but just enough to make me want to bury my face against her neck and take a little nibble. If she wasn’t forbidden I’d make sure she was aware of who the boss was properly.

“You’re hurting me!”

I wasn’t – not really. Perhaps her pride. Nice ploy though. “I’m going to slowly give you room to get up. But guaranteed if you try another stunt like that you’ll be punished properly.”

My jaw clenched as I slowly eased up on her. Truthfully it was a relief since the squirming under me was making it hard – in more ways than one.

Watching her movements like a hawk, I slowly rose to my feet with her doing the same. My eyes scanned her backside as she stood up. Just enough of her ass cheeks was on display beneath those daisy dukes to make my arousal worsen. Raven’s old lady sure had a figure on her. The thought of the greasy president of our rival club fucking her was like splashing cold water on my erection. Would I seriously want to put it in somewhere his dirty dick had been? Not overly. Didn’t matter how rocking her body was.

When she turned there was a look of sheer hate and defiance in her eyes as she looked me up and down, as if sizing up her opponent. She was closer to the door than I was, but if she ran again, she wouldn’t get far and as God was my witness she wouldn’t get out of that room for the remainder of her stay with us.

Her eyes shifted and her gaze settled on the door – mere feet away.

“Don’t even think about it.”
