I nod. “Sure am.”
“I’ll see you at the house. Watch your backs, see if anyone’s following you.”
“Will do, Prez,” I reply, looking out of the compound gates onto the street. I doubt Blake knows where the girls are, but if he looks closely into Hazel’s life, he’ll find out who I am, and even more worrying, where we are.
“Am I with you again?” Charity asks, looking up at me shyly.
“You’re actually asking me?” I joke, pointing to my chest.
She smiles. “I figured I might as well, don’t want to be carried off again.”
I laugh. “You know me too well.”
I step closer to her, our faces only inches away—the scent of my body wash on her skin hits me, and I love that she chose to use it, so my scent is on her. Tucking a loose piece of hair behind her ear, I ask quietly, “We okay?”
She looks away briefly, then focuses back on me. “Yeah, we’re okay,” she whispers, biting down on her bottom lip.
Wrapping a hand around her waist, I bring her in closer, ducking my head so we’re eye to eye and I have her full attention. “She means nothing to me, you have to believe me.”
She bites down on her lip again, and I hold back a groan. “Kane, you don’t need to explain anything to me. You… don’t owe me anything.”
“I know I don’t, but I don’t want you to think that what happened between us before was nothing, because, Charity, it meant everything to me. You in my arms, my lips on yours,” I explain, watching as her gaze drops to my lips. “It felt like heaven. I don’t know what this is between us”—I wave my hand between our bodies, my fingers brushing against her stomach—“but boy do I wanna find out.”
She licks her lips then, and my cock hardens even more when I catch a glimpse of her pink tongue. Fuck, I want that tongue on my cock.
“I want to find out too,” she says, her tone husky.
I swallow hard at the need that’s visible in her eyes. “I bet if I touched you between your legs right now, you’d be wet for me.”
Charity smirks then, and leans in and whispers in my ear, “I’d say you would be right.” She pulls back, winks at me, then walks to my bike and lifts her leg over it to settle herself on the seat.
“Let’s ride!” I hear Quill shout, before he takes off out of the compound with a loud roar. I watch as Bear takes off behind Quill with Hazel on the back of his machine, then turn back to my bike to follow, but we don’t go anywhere until I grab the back of Charity’s head and smash her lips to mine in a kiss that lets her know just how much I want her.
