Breathe. These were the words I had been waiting to hear. My entire chest felt warm from the emotions that were running through me. He leaned down and picked up a small bandana that was an identical match in design to the vest. “I had this made for you. A lot of the other ol ladies wear them on rides and around town. I thought you might like it.” He seemed so unsure, which was very much unlike Rider. It pained me that he would think that I wouldn’t love something he gave me. I did like it, I liked it a lot. I didn’t want to make him squirm any longer than necessary.

I reached up and took the bandana from him. “Rider, I love this. Will you help me put it on my wrist?” His lips did that slight upturn on the one side when he was secretly pleased with himself. He helped me put the vest and the bandana on and then everyone converged on us. I don’t know if putting the vest on was their signal but the moment that leather hit my back, I was surrounded by all the other ol ladies in attendance. They all shared their congratulations and welcomed me into the fold. I looked over my shoulder to find Rider and he was surrounded by a sea of black vests.

Once the excitement around us died down, I found Rider waiting over on the side watching me. Our eyes connected and he gave me a small wave. I walked over to him and planted a big kiss on his lips. This was the happiest Christmas I could remember in a long time and it wasn’t even Christmas day yet. I gave him a little twirl in my outfit with the vest. “How do I look?”

He growled. Literally growled. I found that sexy. He grabbed my hips and pulled me flush against him. I could feel his hard length rub up against me. “Does that answer your question?” I laughed and he leaned in and bit my bottom lip. “You look so good wearing my vest. I know the plan was to stay here for a few hours but now I’m thinking we should get out of here and head home.”

I snorted out a laugh and couldn’t stop myself from raising my eyebrows to convey that I felt the same way. Within a few minutes, Rider had us saying our goodbyes to everyone and we were out the door. We never gave anyone else at the club another thought. We were too busy wrapped up in each other.

Rider

I was on cloud nine. Since I had lost my sister and mother, I hadn’t celebrated Christmas. I had previously avoided most of the festivities and just holed up in my house, ate Chinese food on Christmas Day and only went to mandatory club events. This year was different, I had Rayleighn and Colton. I went from doing nothing for Christmas to going to every festive event Rayleighn had suggested and surprisingly I had loved every minute. We visited Santa, drove around looking at Christmas lights, decorated Christmas cookies, made a gingerbread house, and made snow angels in the front yard. Being sucked into Rayleighn’s quest to have the best holiday season ever was how I found myself on Christmas Eve at an outdoor ice-skating rink watching Rayleighn and Colton slide around on the ice together. While I had put my foot down on not skating, I was having a great time watching them and seeing them laugh and smile.

Rayleighn was wearing her bandana. She hadn’t taken it off since I put it on her wrist the night before, and if I’m being honest, I had to keep adjusting myself in my pants if I looked at it for too long. That possessive side of me flared up every time I looked down and saw it on her tiny wrist. When we came home last night and made slow, sweet love to each other with her only wearing that bandana, I had to force myself not to come too fast. She was mine and now the world knew it when we stepped out together. It was not only a sign to her how committed I was to us but a sign for the world and anyone in town who got near her. I had lived in this town forever so most people knew me between either growing up, my business, and the club.

The only thing that could rain on my parade right now was her asshole ex-boyfriend. Griz had found out that the MC in Oregon had welcomed him back but couldn’t elaborate on how or why. While he wasn’t a part of the MC he was a friend to them and if he asked for a favor they wouldn’t have a reason to deny him unless it was something very unreasonable or unusual. Griz and I both met with Prez and he agreed that they wouldn’t do something that would jeopardize their relationship with area clubs for him. I understood all of that but a part of me wondered why they had welcomed him back at all. From our brief encounter, I found him to be a sleazy con man who tried to intimidate women into bending to his will. Maybe I was just too close to the situation to see him as anything else.

When Colton got his fill of ice skating, we got him loaded up in the truck and headed back home to start the Christmas Eve rituals before Santa could make his appearance and leave presents under the tree. It had taken Rayleighn a full day to tell me how she celebrated Christmas and Christmas Eve. She was determined to make each Christmas memorable and fun for Colton and while I thought it was a little over the top at first, I had quickly gotten into the spirit as we planned everything. The idea of him waking up and being so excited had me anticipating the big morning.

We were only a few blocks away from the house when I noticed a white van a few cars behind us. I had seen a similar one parked near the ice rink and it caught my attention now. I watched it in the rearview mirror, going slow and staying several cars back. As we got closer to the house I missed our turn. Rayleighn said my name to get my attention and I glanced over at her.

“You just missed the turn.”

I didn’t want to alarm her if it was nothing, so I shook my head. “Sorry babe, I was thinking about things and got distracted.” I made a quick u-turn and kept watch in the rearview mirror. The van continued down the road and in the other direction. As it passed us, I tried to get a look at the driver, but they had sped up and it was a blur of black windows. I purposefully left the turn blinker off and turned down the street to the house. I saw no more signs of the van as we weaved our way down the street and parked in the driveway. Maybe I was just being paranoid since I had been wound so tight, on high alert for weeks now. It gave me a nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach and one thing I’d learned over the years was to never ignore that feeling.

I shook it off, not wanting to put a damper on the Christmas spirit, something I’d probably come to regret.

Rayleighn and I spent two hours after Colton went to bed wrapping last-minute things from Santa and placing all the gifts around the tree. I was also instructed to eat some of Santa’s cookies and drink the milk. I was stealth enough to hide her presents under the tree without her knowing. Tomorrow was going to be a big day for all of us. Once the stockings were filled, we finally slid into bed, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. I wanted my alone time with her. I didn’t mind sharing her one bit with Colton but everyone else could fuck off. I didn’t care if it was Christmas or not because what I wanted from Santa was her hot pussy wrapped around my dick tonight.

I had been giving her heated looks all evening letting her know exactly what I had in mind for tonight. She would giggle when I wrapped my arms around her while making dinner and then when I had trapped her in the laundry room and kissed her senseless while Mrs. Lopez explained to Colton why some elf he had needed to go back to the North Pole. I had stared at her swollen lips for the rest of the night, knowing that I had been the cause of it. Now that we were finally in bed, I was going to have my way with her. When she slid her body under the covers with me, I pulled her flush against me. I had learned a lot about Ray over the last few months we’d been together and one of the things I learned she loved was to cuddle in bed.

I held her in my arms and slowly started kissing her neck, then I made my way up her neck to her ear where I licked the shell of her ear and whispered, “I love you.” She squeezed my hands wrapped around her midsection and pushed her body harder up against mine, wiggling her ass against my now hardening dick. I swore to myself that I was going to take it tonight slow but when she started rubbing up against me all bets were off. I couldn’t hold back, when she showed me affection and initiated more contact, it lit a fire inside of me.

I had never wanted anyone as much as I wanted her. I had never told other women who weren’t related to me that I loved them, so when I said them, I meant them. She was everything to me, and when we were together, I did my best to convey my feelings even if I wasn’t the most vocal person. Her whispered voice broke me out of my thoughts. “I love you too. I’m thankful everyday that you saw me that night.”

I unraveled my arms from around her and gently laid her flat on the bed. She was wearing one of my black t-shirts with the garage logo on it and some black lace underwear. She was so fucking sexy. I pulled the shirt up over her stomach and kissed a line up it. I pushed the shirt above her chest and latched on to one of her hard nipples. I could tell she was already turned on because she wouldn’t lay still. She was squirming trying to find any friction between us. I loved seeing her like this. I was still wearing my boxer briefs as I ground my hips into hers. She could feel my hard length through her soaked underwear. I put my hands in hers and raised them above her head, holding them there while I kept grinding into her. “More Rider. I need more,” she moaned out.

That was it for me. The dam on my restraint completely broke. I let go of her hands and slid down her body, going straight to her panties. I ripped them off, shredding the thin lace on the sides and throwing the scraps of fabric to the floor. I pushed her legs further apart to make room and dived my face into her folds. I dragged my tongue through her slit, in one long lick. Her hands instantly flew to my hair and began twisting and pulling it between her fingers. I continued slowly, long licks up her slit and then I pushed my tongue as far inside of her as I could and swirled it around.

Her legs started to tremble, and she bucked her hips off the bed. I knew my baby was getting close to coming. I retreated and slid down to the foot of the bed and shoved my underwear off. When I stood up, her eyes were locked in on my hard cock. I held it at the base and squeezed so she could see the bead of precum on the head. Crawling back up the bed, I covered her body with mine. I pressed a soft kiss to her lips and then I reached down between us and pulled my cock through her folds, soaking me with her wetness. Then in one swift movement, I thrust my full length deep inside of her.

If I was a better man, I would have given her time to get used to my size but the feel of her wrapped around me after I had waited all day for this, I couldn’t hold it back. I began stroking in and out of her. As I worked up a rhythm she began to moan my name over and over in a deep, breathy voice. She was close and I picked up my rhythm, leaning forward to touch her clit, rubbing circles with my thumb. Her moans turned louder and she began coming around me. I kept up my steady pace, thrusting in and out of her as she rode through her climax. I wanted to milk all of the pleasure out of her.

I loved the look she got on her face as she came. Seeing her face was better than anything else I knew, including riding my motorcycle under the summer sun. When she came down from the high of her orgasm, I flipped her over and thrust back inside of her. I slapped her ass and then grabbed it with both my hands thrusting in and out of her bringing my hips fully to her body. I wanted deeper inside of her. This was heaven and I never wanted to stop. As I continued thrusting inside of her, I knew she was getting close again. “Touch yourself, baby. I’m almost there.”

Her hand went from the bed to her clit and I could feel her fingertips brushing up against me. I kept up my relentless pace until I felt her spasm around me and her legs shake. Her hand fell beside her on the bed and she laid flat on her stomach breathing deep, moaning my name as she came. That’s all it took for me, the moment I knew she was coming I released myself into her while my hands roamed all over her back and ass. I loved this woman. I loved her more than I ever thought I could love someone. This was us together. It was real, rough, and fast—just like us.

I gently pulled out of her, leaned down and moved her hair to the side, and kissed her neck. She lay there unmoving but smiling. I walked to the bathroom and got a warm wet towel. When I got back to the bed I cleaned her off and helped her get back up in the bed. She threw on my shirt and got back under the covers. I laid behind her and she curled into my chest, settling in for the night. I wrapped my arms around her and before we drifted off to sleep, I whispered, “Merry Christmas baby. I love you.” In her sleep-filled voice, she whispered back, “Love you forever.” And just like that my chest tightened with all the emotions I felt of loving her and having her in my life.

Rayleighn

I loved Christmas and everything about it. This year hadn’t been as stressful on the financial front because Rider refused to let me pay for half of Colton’s presents. He was insistent about providing for us. If it was up to me though, I wouldn’t have had him get a thing. Colton had come out of his shell so much with Rider around. He loved having him around all the time and he was a great fatherly influence to him, which I felt a young boy needed.

It took two hours for us to open our presents and clean up the mess. Rider and I sat back together on the couch and watched Colton play with his new toys. I was sitting there twirling the gold heart necklace that Rider had given me as a present. I had given him a black leather pocket journal that I had stamped with the MC logo on the cover. He was always writing notes down on scrap pieces of paper and I thought it would be nice for him to have it all in one place. Plus, it was small enough that he could carry it around with him on his motorcycle if he wanted.

We had a busy day planned, but I was trying to soak up this moment before the day got too crazy for us. I loved leaning into his strong chest knowing he was there supporting me. My fingers wouldn’t leave my necklace and he noticed. “You like it, baby?”

I smiled at him. “I love it. It was too much, though. You’ve done so much for me. I didn’t need a present.”
