So I got up and showered, put on fresh clothes, and then sat on the end of the bed, wondering what I was going to do with the rest of my life.
The answers came quickly.
Live here.
Get Hayley Jade into school.
Volunteer at the hospital until I had enough knowledge to apply for a paid position there.
Keep Hawk and Hayden from killing each other.
All but the last one seemed fairly doable.
I slipped into the hallway. The clubhouse was mostly quiet, only Ice and Queenie sitting at the bar, though this morning they both had mugs of coffee in their hands instead of beer bottles.
Queenie raised a hand at me. “Morning, Miss Thang. How you doing after your little sexcapade last night?”
I widened my eyes at her.
Queenie burst into laughter. “Yeah, sugar. You’re real lucky that girly of yours sleeps so solidly. The rest of us, however…” She took a sip of her coffee, her smile no less evident in the mischief in her eyes. “Gotta say though, until you screamed his name, I thought it was Chaos you were in there with. Pretty sure you weren’t going to forgive Hawk that easily.”
I faltered, moving over to the bar and taking the mug of coffee Ice poured for me because it was the polite thing to do, even though I didn’t really like it. “Do you think I forgave him too quickly?”
Queenie shook her head, the absence of her large hoop earrings jarring, though I didn’t blame her for taking those off when she slept. “No, sugar. What’s the point in holding on to hate? That ain’t going to get you anything good. You forgave him, and look what it got you? A whole lotta orgasms.”
Ice just shook his head and stared at the bar top, his cheeks pink.
Queenie ignored his embarrassment and nudged me. “What’s your plan for today?”
“I want to enroll Hayley Jade at school.”
She choked on her coffee, coughing as she put it down. “No shit? Well, good for you. And for her. That girl needs to get out of this clubhouse for a few hours a day.” She glanced at Hawk’s bedroom door. “You talk to him about it though? He’s gotten pretty protective over that girl, and I don’t blame him. She’s real easy to love.” The tender expression on her face told me she adored Hayley Jade just as much as Hawk did.
My heart filled with love for these people. They’d barely known me when I’d arrived on their doorstep, and yet they’d taken me in and cared for me and my child when I couldn’t. I owed it to them to consider their feelings on Hayley Jade’s next steps.
“I’ll talk to him,” I promised her.
Hawk’s door opened at the same time, and we all looked over at him.
But his gaze was only for me. The corner of his mouth flicked up, and his gaze grew hot, like he was remembering what we’d done in the dark just hours ago. My pussy clenched in on itself, missing the fullness of his dick.
Hayden’s door opened mid throb.
The need there only intensified when he walked out in black jeans, a black button-down shirt, and with his shoulder-length hair messily tied back off his face with a leather band at the nape of his neck.
I felt like a deer caught in headlights. Like all of them knew how much I was turned on just from being in the same room as them.
Hawk glanced at Hayden, and his smile for me grew. “You do what I asked, Little Mouse?”
Heat flushed my face as all eyes turned back to me.
Queenie chuckled at the clear triangle of sexual tension that had sprung up between me and the two guys. “Oooh, what did he say? Do tell.”
I shook my head quickly, my face on fire with embarrassment.
Hayden watched me quietly while Hawk strode to the bar, leaning on the countertop and waiting for Ice to pour him a coffee. He grinned over the top of it at Queenie, making sure his voice was plenty loud enough for Hayden to hear. “Filled her up with cum and sent her to dickhead over there.” He jerked his head in Hayden’s direction. “Just so he’d know who her pussy belongs to.”
“Hawk!” I hissed, glaring at him. “Stop it! I was never going to do that.”
