Todd hadn’t had many moments of contentment in his life but for the first time for as long as he could remember Izzy and Ulises made him feel it.
Chapter Twenty-Eight
Ulises held Todd’s hand as Izzy drove Ulises’ car. They were in the backseat together. He’d told Izzy he could take his bike, and he would drive on his own. Todd would have had fun on the ride. But Izzy wanted the three of them to be together. Especially after bonding but also after they’d told him about the red truck.
“Talk Daddy into taking you for a ride later,” Ulises took his seatbelt off and scooted closer to Todd, laying his head on his shoulder. He felt needy for reasons he couldn’t explain. Bonding made him want to snuggle.
“I’ll take you out, sweetheart. We can watch the sunset together.” Izzy’s eyes softened when he met Ulises’ gaze in the rearview mirror. “And I’ll hold you when we get to the club.”
Ulises relaxed, knowing Izzy would gave him what he wanted.
Todd kissed the top of his head and put his arms around Ulises’ shoulders, pulling him closer. “When we get back to work, I’ll make cinnamon rolls.”
Ulises put an arm around Todd. “I like your love language.”
Todd chuckled. “I like yours too.”
Ulises met his gaze. “What’s mine?”
“Making sure I have fun. And making sure Daddy gives me equal time.”
Oh. Right. Ulises probably did do that. He just wanted Todd to do all the fun things Izzy had done with him in the past. Like take him on a motorcycle ride.
Ulises lay against him again. “You’re a Dragon Skull now. You have to ride a motorcycle.”
“What if I want to ride on my own?” Todd’s gaze went to the back of Izzy’s head.
“I’ll get you a bike, sweetheart. One that fits you. And I’ll teach you how to ride so you can get your license.”
“Seriously? Just like that? No protests about safety.”
“I’ll teach you.” Izzy wouldn’t worry about Todd’s safety on a motorcycle. He was the best with motorcycles in the entire club. Not only did he know a lot about them, but he had a lot of connections. He’d find the perfect fit for Todd. “I’m not going to let anything happen to you, sweetheart. I promise.”
At least Izzy realized he couldn’t keep them in a bubble. Ulises feared he’d try. But motorcycles didn’t scare Izzy.
It was amazing how good he felt. He wasn’t as tired as usual. Most days he woke up fatigued, having to force himself from bed. The feeling never left him. But it wasn’t there anymore. Maybe it was Easton’s drugs. But Ulises wanted to think it was bonding with Izzy and Todd.
Izzy parked at the back of the lot and shut off the engine. He turned in his seat. “Ulises, make sure Todd knows the rules.”
“So there are rules for everyone. Unwanted advances, touching, and even sometimes looking is a no-no. Basically we want it to be a safe space and we all have to help maintain that.”
Todd seemed surprised. “That’s…amazing. Not like other clubs I’ve been to.”
They started across the parking lot and headed inside. “We started charging a fee at the door for nonmembers and that’s been pretty lucrative. But I think the main thing we’ve found out is how many people come to a middle-of-nowhere biker club because they feel safe. We have a way of quantifying that now with literal dollars.”
“Boys come looking for a good Daddy. In the club they don’t have to worry about someone taking advantage of them.” Izzy pulled Ulises to his other side part way through the walk when the people entering the club ahead of them slowed down.
Ulises didn’t pay attention until Izzy went on alert.
Izzy growled. His hold tightened.Steer clear of them.
They were familiar. Ulises recognized one of them from the club. His name was Cain. He was always trying to fuck the Dragon Skull alphas. It was as if he were trying to either ruffle feathers amongst the family or trying to find a permanent home. But no one fucked their way into the family. That wasn’t how the Dragon Skulls worked.
It took Ulises a moment to figure out where he’d recognized the other guy. The dating app. He was BossMan7.
Cain turned and gave them a cold smile. “Daddy. I see things are going well for you. Two boys at the same time. Impressive.”
Who is he?Todd asked.
