I chuckled. “Shit, it’s just a black eye.”

“I’m glad you find this amusing.” She opened the glass door.

“Where are you going?”

She went to close it, but I stopped her.

“Sugar, don’t walk away from me.”

She raised her fucking middle finger at me and grabbed a towel on her way out of the bathroom. This behavior wasn’t okay with me. I turned off the water, took my towel off the hook, and stomped after her.

“Woman, I said don’t walk away from me.” I grabbed her by the arm and spun her around to face me. A breath hung in my lungs at the sight of tears rolling down her face. “Sweetheart.” I wrapped my arms around her.

She buried her face in my chest. “What if you were shot? Killed? Chopped up into a dozen pieces?”

“I wasn’t and won’t be.” I understood what was bothering her now. She’d already lost her mother. Her father wouldn’t talk to her because of me. My sweet girl was afraid to lose me too.

“I don’t have a lot of people in my life. You’re it, aside from my dad, brother, and Mickey. I love them, but you’re…” Her voice trailed when she kissed my chest.

“I’m what?” I backed her up to the bed.

“I can’t live without you. I know it’s crazy to say after only a few weeks, but it’s the truth.”

I lowered her to the bed, then climbed on top of her. “You’re not going to lose me, baby. I’m a Knight. We’re unkillable.”

“Unkillable? Is that a real word?”

I kissed her soft lips. “Yes. Don’t question your man.”

“Matt, I’m not doing well being in the dark.”

She didn’t need to tell me. I could see it plain as day on her lovely face.

“All I can tell you is we were making the streets safer.”

“That’s not enough. Safer from what? From who?”

My girl wouldn’t stop until I gave her more. Well, I couldn’t. I kissed down her throat, scooting my body down hers. I stopped at her breast and licked her perfect pink bud.

She arched her back. My Sugar loved to have her nipples sucked. “Sex won’t make me forget. You’ll only be delaying the inevitable.”

Ignoring her, I drew on her firmly and slipped my fingers between her warm, wet folds. They slid in and out, getting drenched in her cream.

“You’re cruel.” She ground against my hand. “But so irresistible.”

Pride swelled in my chest. Making Eve happy was what I lived for, which was crazy as hell. Before her, my club and brothers were all that mattered.

I released her nipple. “So are you, baby. I want to fuck you bare tonight.”

She stilled. “You do? Why?”

I snorted, getting between her thighs. “Why? Because I don’t want anything between us.” The tip of my cock teased her entrance. “Feel that? Just imagine how fucking amazing it would feel to have me come inside you.” I kissed her. “Come on, baby. What do ya say?”

“I’m on the pill. I just thought you didn’t go without a condom.”

“I didn’t before you. But you’re mine, Eve. I want you in every way.”

She grabbed my ass, spreading her legs wider. “Take me, Matt.”
