“Thank you for giving me a second chance, Georgie,” I murmur.I see the surprise light in her eyes, but it’s her smile that draws me in.Right before I can kiss her again, Scorpion opens the door to his room, zipping up his pants.One of the club whore’s follows behind him.“Are we all partying?”she asks as she slips under Scorpion’s arm which is propped on his door frame.She’s completely naked and I’m distracted by the way my woman stiffens in my arms.Motherfucker, this isn’t how I wanted to introduce her to the club.
“New rule for the club,” I growl at Scorpion.“Club whores wear clothes when they’re around old ladies,” I growl.
Scorpion steps forward, hands in his pockets, smirking.“You’ll have to bring that up for vote, I suppose.Daisy, go get dressed.We’re done.You can see if one of the other guys wants a bed warmer,” he says, keeping his eyes focused on me and Georgia.
“She’s yours?”Daisy says, looking at me.
“She is.You were told to go get some clothes on.Do it,” I order.I can already tell what Daisy’s game is by the way she’s looking me up and down.
She puts her hand on my shoulder, completely ignoring the woman in my arms.“You don’t have to slum it with a cursed prude who lives in town Prez.I know exactly how to keep you happy.Ask Scorpion.I can take you to heaven,” she says.I know she’s trying to talk sexy, but for me, at least, she’s failing miserably.
Georgia knocks Daisy’s hand away and growls at me.Let me down,” she orders me, showing me that fire inside her again.
“Fuck no.You and I have plans.”
“If this is the life you lead and you have her in your bed, I don’t need to be here,” Georgia grumbles, already moving around, trying to get down.I tighten my hold on her, not letting her escape.
“Scorpion, do you know if this club has rules in place for how club candy is allowed to treat the old ladies?”
“Not sure, Prez, but every club I’ve been a part of know that old ladies are treated with respect.”
“Does it seem respectful to you, Daisy that you are propositioning me knowing I have a woman, and that woman is in my arms while you stand there completely fucking naked and calling her bullshit names?”
“I didn’t know?—”
“You obviously don’t know shit.Georgia is my woman—my old lady.I can’t speak for my men, but my dick belongs to her and her alone.Now back the fuck up, donottouch me again and if youeversay that shit or anything about my woman again, you are out of this damn club.Do you understand?”
Daisy stands back immediately.She nods her head yes, but immediately fucks up by speaking.“The club will never accept her.The whole town knows she’s a witch and curses everything she touches.”
“Scorpion?”
“Yeah, Prez?”
“Make sure Daisy’s shit is packed up and she’s out of here before I get out of bed in the morning.”
“You can’t do that!”she screeches.“The men won’t let you!”
“I can and I have.Go pack your shit, Daisy,” I growl.
“This isn’t over,” she stomps off and I roll my eyes.“Christ, this club is fucking chaos.It’s been running unchecked for way too long.Do as I ordered, Scorpion.Then, tell the men to meet me for church in thirty minutes—everyone is to be there.Mandatory.”
“You got it,” Scorpion says, giving me a shit-eating grin.“Glad to meet you, Georgia.If Griff lets you out of his bed long enough to have breakfast in the morning, we’ll talk then.”
“Thanks, uh … Scorpion,” Georgia answers blushing prettily.
“Damn,” Scorpion says, shaking his head as he opens my door for me.I already know he sees in Georgie what I do.Too bad for him, I’ve already laid claim and I’m not letting her go.
I grin at him but go inside without further comment.I use my back to close my door and take a deep breath as I look down at the woman who I am completely gone for.“Finally, we’re away from the circus.”
She lets out a laugh.“I think circus is an understatement.”
I slowly lower her to her feet, leaning into her and pressing my lips against the curve of her neck, before moving close to her ear.“You’re driving me crazy, Georgie,” I whisper.“I want you so fucking much.I know that was ugly out there, but I’m not playing with you, baby.”
“I think I’m starting to believe that,” she confesses.
“Thank God,” I exhale releasing some of the tension I’ve been feeling.
I watch as she looks around the room, her nose crinkling up adorably.“This is your room?”
