Chapter Nine

One week later

 

Elena squealed as she ran away from Pipe while he was running toward her. She wore one of his long shirts, and earlier that day he’d taken her to the lake by his cabin. The last week had been like living another life to Elena. She’d split her time among the shop, her home, and Pipe’s cabin. The picnic for the celebration of Penny and Rage’s baby was tomorrow, and she was spending the whole day with Pipe.

He’d become part of her world, and she loved being with him. He made her laugh, feel special, and within one week she’d had a great deal of fun.

“I’m coming after you, baby,” he said, shouting out.

She glanced behind her, and saw that he was advancing on her. Screaming, she picked up her pace, running away from him.

He captured her around the waist and carried her toward the lake. She tried to get away even though she wasn’t trying all that hard. Pipe carried her into the water, and the sudden shock of the cold made her gasp as he let her go.

Elena went under the water, and she broke the surface laughing, and turned around in the water looking for Pipe. He was nowhere to be seen, and she started to panic.

“Pipe?” No answer.

“It’s not funny! Come out!” She yelled at empty space.

Pipe grabbed her around the waist, and pulled her down.

This time when she broke the surface, she shoved him hard. “Don’t fucking do that, you ass. I was worried.”

“I’m a damn good swimmer. Did I worry you?” he asked, circling her.

“No!”

“You’re lying, little girl.”

“Yes, I was worried you could drown, and I don’t like the thought of you drowning.” The best moments of her life were the ones with him. She loved being with him, and when she was away from him she thought about being with him. It was a constant. The feelings that he was inspiring inside her scared her.

Wrapping her arms around his neck, she smiled at him.

“I’ve spent many summers here, baby. I know this entire lake just like I know your body. I know what places to touch to drive you wild, and I’m going to keep doing that.” He gripped her ass, moving between her cheeks to touch her pussy.

She gasped as he touched her pussy. Elena only wore a long shirt, and she wasn’t wearing any underwear.

“Tomorrow you’re at your brother’s place?” he asked.

“Yes. I’m going to leave my window open. I’ll leave at around ten. The club shouldn’t go crazy before then.” He had sneaked into her window twice this week, and each time he’d kept her up late at night. She told Sarah about his visits, and her friend had started to get worried, as she was becoming attached to him.

It was more than becoming attached. She was having feelings for Pipe. The man known for bashing a person’s head was making her fall for him, in a big way.

“I better fuck you so any guy who tries it on with you tonight, you’ll remember who you belong to.”

“I know who I belong to, baby.” They hadn’t gone a day without having sex, and even though she was sore, she didn’t want to miss a chance to be with him.

He was about to say something else when someone called his name.

“Pipe!”

Elena tensed in his arms, and he moved her behind him. Glancing over his shoulder, she saw a man she didn’t recognize.

“What is it, Shawl?” Pipe asked.

“Saint’s back at the clubhouse, and he’s got some of his brothers with him. He wants a meet about the next planned fight.” Shawl glanced at her, and sighed. “She’s going to have to go.”
