HER CHOICE
SARAH BALE
CHAPTER ONE
A moan works its way up my throat as Tool pounds into me from behind. We’re outside, and the humid Georgia air makes my skin damp with sweat. Holding onto the tree, I arch into Tool.
“Harder,” I rasp.
His hands dig into my hips as he gives me exactly what I want. What Ineed. Goosebumps break out across my skin as I shatter. His pace doesn’t stop. In fact, he thrusts into me harder, grunting out my name until he finds his own release. Being with him is bliss, even if we’re out back, hiding, so no one knows what we’re up to.
He pulls out and curses. “Shit. The condom broke.”
Looking over my shoulder, I see him holding the condom, and I bite back a frustrated sigh.
“I’m on the pill.”
He tosses the condom into the wooded area behind us and smacks my butt. “Good to know. Just in case, take this.”
His pants are around his ankles, and he pulls them up, tucking away his cock, before reaching for his wallet. He pulls out a few twenties, waving them at me. I’m trying really hard not to be offended…
“What’s that for?”
“The morning-after pill.”
I roll my eyes. “How considerate of you,Tool.”Emphasis on tool!“But I don’t need your money. I can buy my own shit.”
“Are you mad at me?”
“No.”Yes. Maybe.“Tool, what are we even doing?”
He actually groans, stepping away from me. “Here we go.”
“Care to explain that comment?”
“You chicks always get clingy and want more than I can offer.”
We’ve been doing this for weeks now—sneaking around behind everyone’s back to have quickies. At first, it was exciting. I’ve always enjoyed the forbidden side of things, but that’s a whole other story. Now? Now it makes me feel like his dirty little secret. And I don’t like that. I’m no man’s secret, and I deserve more than this.
“I’m only asking what we’re doing.”
“Having fun.”
I hate that we’re having this conversation while I’m naked, but I turn to face him, crossing my arms over my chest.
“You said that you didn’t want the others to know what was going on until the auction was over. It’s been months now, and yet here we are, still running around behind their backs.”
The Devil’s Regents MC was going to hold an auction for one girl who was rescued from a human trafficking ring with me so that she could lose her virginity on her own terms. Allison is the sweetest person ever, and it shocked me that she wanted to do something so bold. All the single guys at the club were interested because she’s just too cute for words. Tool was one of those guys, though there was an undeniable attraction between the two of us. He admitted that he was attracted to the idea of her, which is the only reason that I even considered sleeping with him.
As for Allison, I knew she had eyes for Ice and Ice alone. Now that they’ve finally gotten their heads out of their butts and gotten together, I had hoped that Tool might do the same. That he might look at me and realize that we have a good thing going. Or the start of something good. Looks like maybe I was wrong.
He’s the opposite of any man I’ve ever been attracted to before. My type is usually tall and lean, not tall and so muscular that he could give a WWE wrestler a run for their money.Certainly not someone with dark hair, who looks like he could be a villain out of the books I read my infant son. It was his blue eyes that caught my attention, though. They’re an unusual shade that stands out against his tan skin. And right now, they’re staring back at me with unease.
“Machelle, I told you I don’t do relationships.”
“I know.”
“So, are we good, or does this need to end tonight?”
