“If you say it’s different because I’m a woman, I will not be responsible for my actions,” I warn him.

I watch as his lips spread into a smile.It’s a smile that looks way too good on him and one that causes a tiny quake to rock through my system.I wish to God I knew why I react to this man so strongly.If I knew I’d do whatever I could to stop it.

Immediately.

“You need a ride, Cupcake?”

“You don’t even know where I’m going,” I grumble.

“I’m still offering.”

“No.I can ask…”

“Sheila?I got the feeling you aren’t her biggest fan.Do you really want to ride in a confined space with her?”he asks…the bastard.

“Fine.But, if I take this ride, let’s make a deal not to speak to one another,” I agree, more than a little desperate.

“Whatever you say,” he says with a shrug.

I’m dying to tell him no and find another way, but I can’t.I have a meeting in less than an hour, with the Whitefish schoolboard.I’m hoping to get my foot in the door by taking a job as a teacher’s aide at the elementary school.It’s a longshot, because I don’t specifically want to pull my credentials from my last known employment.Doing that will tell my brother where I am.Doing that will tell Tony where I am too… and that’s something I do not want.

It’s been years.You think that would be a long enough time that it wouldn’t matter.Maybe it has for my brother, I don’t know.But, there’s a part of me that knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that Tony will never give up completely.

“Hey, you okay?”Noah asks and I frown looking up at him.

“Just old ghosts,” I tell him, which is completely truthful.

“Maybe you’ll tell me about them sometime,” he says, as we walk over to his truck.

“That would be hard to do, since we’re not talking to each other, remember?”I remind him, getting in the truck when he opens the door.He shuts it, muffling his laughter.I for one, am glad.I like his laugh and I don’t want to like anything about him.

Chapter8

Diesel

“You needme to come in with you?”I ask Rory.

She might be the single, most stubborn woman I’ve ever met.True to her word, she hasn’t said anything to me the whole ride here.I tried a couple of times to start a conversation, but she didn’t even look up.She just kept staring out the window.

I’m already feeling pretty fucking stupid—not to mention guilty.When I heard through the paper-thin wall that she had a job interview today, I saw a way to begin the thaw between us.I stupidly let the air out of her tire—and I know how childish that sounds.

What would I have said if she caught me?

“Oh, don’t mind me, I’m just trying to get you to talk to me so I can fuck you and get my fill of you.”

I don’t see many women going along with that—at least not women like Rory and for some reason it’s her my dick wants.Besides, if I have to hear her come one more time and not be able to enjoy it I’m going to go bat-shit crazy.That’s just the truth of it.

I’ve never had trouble with women giving me what I want.Hell, usually they fall at my feet.But, I’ve always been Diesel, a President of an outlaw club, and that kind of life attracts women—even good ones who wonder what it would be like to walk on the wild side just once…or twice.

Fuck, I’ve not been Noah in so long, I don’t remember how to be the bastard now.I never liked him to begin with.It didn’t help my case that I put Rory in her place from the beginning.It needed to be done, however.There’s not a bitch alive going to get close to my son again.I don’t care who she is.Fuck, before I left the club, I was beginning to rethink letting Dani watch him—and I actuallytrusther and Crusher.But then… that’s how fucked up I’ve been for way too long now—and the main reason I decided to leave the club.

“Thank you for the ride,” she says—instead of answering me.She opens the door and gets out.

“I take it that’s a negative about coming in with you.”

She studies me from across the seat of the truck.Her gaze is locked with mine and she’s betraying nothing on her face.She’s locked down tight.For some reason I find that intriguing.I’ve never known a woman could lock down her emotions and not giveawaysomething.Even Violet did that to some extent.She was good, but I would have caught on much earlier if she hadn’t spent a lot of her time on her knees sucking my cock.

“That’s a negative,” she says.
