The next couple of weeks were almost perfect. Ford and I were getting used to living together and had arguments here and there, but they always led to makeup sex not long after. I loved falling asleep in his arms and waking up with his erection pressing against my ass.

The morning that the girls and I were planning to leave to Vegas, Ford didn’t want to let me out of bed, holding me tightly in his arms. “Baby, I have to get ready.” I chuckled, trying to squirm out of his embrace. He’d already distracted me twice with sex to keep me in bed.

He sighed, letting me go. “Fine.” When I got out of bed, he smacked my ass, and I couldn’t help but giggle. My biker was insatiable.

When I finished getting ready, Ford walked me out to my car and loaded my bags. When he finished, he caged me between his arms against the car. “Be careful. Matteo's men may still be looking for you.”

Chuckling, I gripped his cut and pressed a soft kiss to his lips. We hadn't heard much about the cartel in the last week or so, and the last we’d heard, they were in Bullhead City. “You really think they'd try to kidnap me in Vegas? There are too many people to kidnap someone without being noticed.”

He grunted. “Yeah, well make sure to stick to the crowds. I'm gonna have Deuce and Trey follow you just to be safe.”

I groaned. “I'll be fine. You don't have to do that.” I thought it was sweet that he was worried about me, but I didn't want two bikers following the girls and me all around Vegas. Trey following me around Laughlin was bad enough.

Tucking a strand of hair behind my ear, he kissed my forehead. “Well, I'm going to. I don't want anything happening to you when I'm not around.”

I couldn't help but smile as my stomach fluttered. “Okay, old man.”

He captured my mouth with his, kissing me so fucking good that I could barely see straight when he was finished. “Now, get out of here before I take you back in the house and not let you out of bed.”

Giggling, I bit down on my bottom lip. I almost wanted to take him up on his offer, but Nina and I had organized everything, and I needed to be there. Plus, I needed some girl time after shacking up with my biker for the last two weeks. “Keep it warm for me. I'll be back in it Sunday night.”

He grinned down at me. “You better.”

After several more minutes of making out and lots of heavy groping, I finally got in the car and drove to Hannah and Meghan's. The sun had barely risen when I arrived, and Nina was already there.

I knocked on the door, and the three of them greeted me with huge smiles and voices too loud for that early in the morning. “Dee!” They all squealed before pulling me in for a group hug.

“Are you ready to get this party started?” Nina asked when they let me go.

She had what I was pretty sure was a mimosa in her hand. “Are you drunk already?”

“Girl, I plan to be drunk all weekend.”

I chuckled, and Hannah shook her head with a laugh. “Want some coffee?”

“Yes, please.” Since I'd stayed up all night with Ford having sex and slept maybe three hours, fatigue was finally catching up to me. Sometimes I wondered who was the older person in our relationship because he gave me a run for my money.

I set my bags by the door, then followed Hannah to the kitchen. “Did y'all get any sleep?”

She poured me a steaming mug. “A couple of hours. We were both too excited, especially since you won't give us any details.”

I giggled as she handed me the mug. “It wouldn't be a surprise if we told you.”

She scoffed playfully. “Whatever.” Pouring another mug, she called out, “Nina, get your ass in here and drink this!”

Nina bounced in, drunken bliss on her face. “Yes, ma'am.”

After we all finished our coffee, we loaded up Meghan's SUV and started the hour and a half drive to Vegas. I noticed the two motorcycles following us, but the others didn't seem to.

Our mini road trip was filled with laughter, off-key singing, and playful banter between the four of us. We'd booked a suite at the Wynn and opted for early check-in so that we didn't have to wait around with our luggage all day.

To say the suite was amazing would've been an understatement. Decorated in hues of cream and gold with marble floors, plush carpet, and high-end furniture, it was nicer than most of the homes I'd been in.

“Oh. My. God.” Hannah gasped. “This is just wow, you guys.”

We all gaped in awe as we took in the suite. The bathrooms had rain showers and infinity-edge bathtubs and both bedrooms had a balcony overlooking the Strip.

“Holy shit,” Meghan commented. “This place is unreal.”
