She was already getting in over her head, so she was afraid she’d give all of herself to him, and then when he got sick of her, she’d be broken.

Chapter Fifteen

Gunner watched as she thought about the move. It was a no-brainer, and her things were probably already moved in. Striker tended to act fast.

He didn’t like the shadow of sadness on her face and couldn’t imagine what she was thinking.

“Jana?”

She looked up at him and nodded.

The air rushed from his lungs in relief. He knew she would be living at the club no matter what, but it would be easier for him if she came peacefully.

“You won’t fight me about staying in my room?” he asked.

“No.”

“Good girl. We have time to talk about everything later. I can see you’re unsure about some things.”

“Yes.”

“I can’t wait to ask this. We’ve been interrupted every time I’ve tried to ask. I need to know now who the fuck Mick is and what he is to you?”

Jana smiled. “Mick is my friend. She’s another nurse in the ER.”

“She?” Gunner asked.

“Yeah. Her real name is McKinley, but she likes to be called Mick.”

Another level of tension left his body.

“Let’s get you home and into bed.”

“It’s not even noon.”

“Yeah, but you’ve been hurt, and I’m sleep-deprived. Don’t you want me holding you while you sleep?” He smiled at the blush that covered her face.

“Yes.”

“Let’s get you out of here.”

Sharp stood up. “I’ll check with the nurse.”

“Thanks, man.” When Gunner turned back to her, he caught the blush on her face darkened and grinned. “What?”

“He was sitting there when we … you know … were making out.”

Gunner laughed. “Yeah. For one thing, we were just kissing. My hand would have been down your pants if we were making out. I’ll demonstrate it to you later. Besides, we’re not a modest bunch, but you’ll get used to it.”

Sharp walked back in, and the nurse followed with a wheelchair.

“Here you go, Jana. You know the drill, so I won’t go over everything. You’ll still have to be taken to the entrance in a wheelchair.”

“Yes. I remember.” Jana smiled. “Thank you, Jessie.”

“No problem. Call if you need anything, and I hope I’ll see you again.”

Jana smiled. “Yes, you will.”
