Page 32 of Ride with Zane

“Ouch.” I guess that’s what people see in us. “We’re more than that with values and rules.”

“Respect, Honor and Courage.” She smiles. “I read them on your tattoos, I shamelessly admit I know nothing of this world.”

I hold out a hand for her. “More than those three but they are the main ones.”

Her eyes stop on my jacket. “Will I have one too?” She pulls me closer.

“You know what’s the meaning of you wearing one?”

“That I won’t freeze my bones while riding with you?”

I burst out laughing and kiss her. “A jacket is more than that. Is a silent warning that you’re mine.”

“Am I?”

I lean to her ear and bite her earlobe. “You tell me, Princess. Are you mine?” She shivers and I have my answer. “Let’s get inside.”

It's still early and everyone is sleeping for sure. They had a busy night chasing whoever scared her.

“It's huge,” she says . “I've never been here.”

“No one can come close here, unless it is with one of my brothers or upon invitation.”

“So they're living here?”

“No, Princess. We use it to take a break, relax or use my office. But it happens to spend the night over here when we get wasted or have something important to deal with. Don’t worry we do have plenty of bedrooms upstairs.”

We get inside and she takes her jacket off.

“I'll take you on a tour later. Do you want some coffee?”

She fans her hands on her hips. So fucking sexy. “What about making breakfast? I have counted at least six Harleys outside.”

“Yep, and the kitchen is up there.” I point on the other side.

Cooking with her is something new for us and I don’t recall having done it with Caroline either. I have never seen anyone so happy in the morning and her happiness is so contagious.

“It's not Sunday, isn't it?” asks Di, still sleepy.

“Good morning, Di, I'm afraid not.”

“Then why are you making us breakfast?” She pauses seeing Ashley. “Oh, got it. Morning, Princess.”

“Good morning, Di.”

“Better go back dressing up. I'll wake the boys too.”

“I'm starving,” says Mac, wearing just his boxers with Mickey Mouse on them.

“Mac, we have guests.” I snap, making him freeze. Di and Ashley burst out laughing, looking at his embarrassed face.

“Spread the word the breakfast is ready and wear some pants. I don't need to see you naked in here.” I shout.

When they all show up, I can sense Ashley's nervousness. I introduce her to my whole family. Bonnie and Silky came here too so I haven't missed anyone.

“So, Rock, is she your 'ol lady?” asks Doc.

“Oh yes,” I admit, biting into her delicious pancakes.
