I don’t fucking know!

I pull through the gate and vehicles pull in behind us. I look in the mirror and see my face is red with blood. One of the fuckers had steel knuckles, and it got me on the forehead. Paisley is unhurt besides her road burn.

I open my door and step out, and I reach in and pick Paisley up. Everyone surrounds us. It’s like a fucking dream; why the fuck are they going for her? I explain what happened, and I carry her inside the clubhouse. Guilt is eating me alive, because this is happening because of me.

Paisley

I can tell that guilt is eating him alive, but I won’t allow him to feel that way if I can help it. The person who attacked us is obviously crazy.

Myra, another ole lady, is cleaning my road burn. Liam should have been treated first because of his head wound, but he wouldn’t have it. He is glued to my side.

Kyle walks into the room and throws Liam a pair of keys. “Go to the mountains and hide out, the caretaker is stocking everything as we speak. We are going to find this fucker. In the meantime, you guys need peace.”

Myra finishes with me and goes to Liam. The cut isn’t that bad, but head wounds always bleed the worst. I grip Liam’s hand, and hope blooms in my chest for the first time in a while.

I can’t wait to get away from everything and just relax.

If only it were that simple.

Paisley

We got to the cabin a few hours ago. I am sitting on the edge of the bed with Liam on his knees in front of me, his head in my lap. My hand is running gently through his hair and down his back. His body softens, under my hands, for the first time in a long time.

It seems like, even in sleep, his whole body is hard and waiting for anything. I think being in this house in the middle of nowhere, under a different name, we cannot be found.

“You okay, Liam?” I whisper. I bend down and kiss the back of his head. His hand tightens around my hip, just holding me.

“I am fine, Baby.” He sighs loudly, his head burrowing between my legs, and I laugh because his nose is right at my crotch now.

“Baby.” I laugh and he laughs right along with me.

He shakes his head once again, and I open my legs, laughing even harder. Liam raises his head, smiling for the first time since everything happened.

I reach out and touch the side of his face. “Now that is my Liam.”

His face softens, smiling at me sweetly.

“I love you, Liam.”

His hand rests on my cheek and mine on his, before his forehead leans against mine. “I love you too, my baby.”

I know I will never tire of hearing those words. Every single time I hear them, I get butterflies. I know, deep down in my heart, that God has made him for me. Liam is meant to be mine. He is my whole heart, and I pray that everyone finds the kind of love I have. I wish everyone had this happiness; maybe the world would be a better place.

“Baby, I want to fuck you but I think I need to sleep and I want you to hold me.”

He nods and gets off the floor, and he strips down. I could fuck Liam twenty-four and seven, but I just want to sleep and feel safe. Liam is the kind of guy who radiates protectiveness and safety. I know that he would do anything to protect me and, even today, I knew he was coming for me. He was right behind the van and I knew, the moment we stopped, he was going to get me.

I pull the comforter back, sliding down the sheets, and close my eyes, relaxing. My body sinks into the bed, which rubs against my road rash, making me hurt.

“You in pain, Baby?” Liam asks me. I crack open one eye only to see him stark naked, and his dick is pointing in my direction.

“I am just a little sore, today has been a crazy day.”

Liam looks down at the ground for a few seconds, and I hate that he feels this way. I shouldn’t have said anything. I don’t want him to feel any guilt at all. “Baby, don’t you fucking dare blame yourself!” I tell him once again, and he looks at me and rolls his eyes.

My mouth opens in shock that he would roll his eyes at me. “You didn’t just do that,” I hiss, pretending to be mad, wanting to draw him out of this mood. I turn onto my stomach and lie with my head on the pillow, and he crawls into bed with me and smacks me on the ass.
