Heat flared in his eyes as he pushed in just an inch, his shallow strokes drove me wild and then he gave me another inch, repeating the move over and over again until I felt the heavy weight of his balls against my ass. “Fuck. I love how wet you are Harper. Wet as fuck and so tight,” he growled instead of finishing the sentence. He pulled out and slammed deep. Again and again.

“Again,” I urged and dug my heels into the mattress.

His hips picked up speed and he dug his fingertips into my thighs, pounding harder and harder until the bed smacked against the wall and my breasts jiggled. “Fuck, baby.” He moved like a man possessed, fucking me hard and fast.

“Gio,” I moaned the warning as my toes curled beneath my feet and pleasure started to work its way up my body.

“I feel that sweet pussy pulsing around me. You’re so close.” His hands slid up my thighs until he found my clit, both thumbs double-teamed my clit until the dam broke and my body erupted like a long-dormant volcano.

“Gio!” I cried out and the sound was loud and animalistic, blending with the sound of slick skin smacking together the perfect harmony of orgasmic bliss.

Gio fucked me harder and harder until he let out a loud roar of his own, pumping those last strokes until I was full of him and his essence. “Fuck, Harper babe. So fucking good.” He collapsedon top of me, kissing my jaw and my neck before he rolled off and brought me with him. “Never gonna get enough of you.”

Oh how I desperately wished that was true.

Chapter 17

Gio

Iwas in trouble, and I knew it and that trouble had very fucking little to do with the Blood Reapers, at least directly. It was Harper. She was… fuck, she was more than I expected. More than I could have ever anticipated a woman could be and the only thing that mattered to me was keeping her safe and in my arms.

I was in a bad way and there was only one group of men I trusted to have my back and keep my head on straight. My brothers in the MC, which was why I found myself marching into the clubhouse in determined strides after I made sure Harper made it to The Regency safe and sound. I was a man on a mission, and I would not be distracted or waylaid.

“Hiya, Gio.” Cindy stepped in my path wearing a tight, white tank top that told the whole world she wasn’t wearing a bra and a tiny denim skirt that said she might not be wearing any panties either. She pushed her tits against me and stuck her lips out in a blood-red pout. “How’s it going?”

“Fine,” I muttered distractedly as I attempted to go around her. “I’m kinda busy right now.”

She stepped in front of me again with another pout. “You owe me. I didn’t get a full night and I’m not giving up until I get it.”

My jaw clenched in annoyance at her persistence. I grabbed her arms tighter than I needed to, but I wanted to make sureshe got the message. “I get to decide if or when we have another night, Cindy. Not you.”

She pouted again and licked her lips. “But you loved the way I took your cock, didn’t you?”

Under any other circumstances that pout and the mention of her head game would’ve swayed me, but I had something more than that, an interesting woman who I had feelings forandwho handled my cock like a pro. “Doesn’t matter. I have shit to do Cindy and you aren’t on the list.” I took a step forward, this time daring her to interrupt me again.

She didn’t—wisely—and I found the guys in our meeting room waiting for church to start. I was the last one to arrive, which pissed me off, but it couldn’t be helped since I had to make sure Harper was safe first. “Well, well,” Rocky shouted the moment I walked into the room with a mischievous smile on his face.

I flipped him off and took my seat, anxious to say what I needed to say but first there was other administrative shit to deal with, including the state of the trip that Cole and Rebel were still on. “Apparently there’s some shit going on with the corrections people so they’re twiddling their thumbs waiting for Hollywood to get let go.”

Slate frowned. “They still haven’t released him?”

“Nope. It’s not his shit that’s the problem, there was a riot and now they have to clear everyone set for release. It’s paperwork but you know how the government works, in its own sweet ass time.” It wasn’t ideal or maybe it was—the longer it took, the more time it would be before I had to come face to face with my best friend and what I’d done to his sister.

Diesel nodded from his perch at the head of the table. “And what about the Blood Reapers?” he asked Slate. “What do we have on them?”

Slate nodded, sucked in a breath and let it out slowly before he gave us all a rundown. “The Blood Reapers MC is into some bad shit, and I don’t mean shit that makes suburban moms and old people clutch their bags and cross the street, I mean actual bad shit. Most of their business is with the cartel,” he began and showed photos of them meeting with three different cartel bosses. “There are no second chances with the cartels, so Viper doesn’t take any chances. One fuck up on their end could mean the end of the entire MC.”

“Good,” I grumbled. “It means they have a lot to lose.”

Slate nodded. “Yeah, but it also means we need to be extra careful unless we want to go head-to-head with the Santangelo Cartel, the Blood Reapers biggest customer.” He shrugged at my scowl. “I’m not saying it can’t be done, I’m just saying that we need an abundance of caution here.”

“We can be cautious,” I replied easily. “But we have to respond before they start thinking they can walk all over us.”

“He’s right,” Diesel answered in a serious, deep voice. His agreement surprised me, not because he didn’t always have our backs but because it was his job to be cautious. “But I happen to know that the Black Devils MC is expecting a big shipment of coke and weed.”

Hawk frowned. “That all-black MC from Henderson? Do we really want to get in the middle of that shit?”

Diesel nodded. “We don’t want to, but we have to. We take those drugs, and wegiftthem to the Black Devils MC. We won’tmake a fucking dime, but it’ll be worth it because it’ll look like the Reapers tried to cut the cartel out of the deal.”
