Page 4 of Eight Bikers' Heir

I relaxed a little and walked into the bedroom to get to the master bathroom, only to freeze at the sight of a naked woman lounging in Blake’s bed.

“Who the hell are you?” the blonde around my age shouted as she bunched Blake’s dark blue sheets over her bare chest.

“Who the hell areyou?” I snapped back, my eyes flying to the bathroom door when I heard the shower abruptly shut off.

A second later, Blake burst out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist and his shaggy black hair soaking wet.

“What’s going on?” he demanded as he looked between us, shock filling his face.

“That’s a question for you to answer! Who’s this?” I asked him, gesturing to the blonde.

Blake rubbed the back of his neck and shrugged in a casual manner.

“No one. It’s nothing, Aisling,” he said.

A cold laugh broke from me as I shook my head.

“Look, I get things have been rocky between us lately, but that doesn’t mean you can sleep with someone else!” I exploded, fire burning through me. I didn’t like being like this. Aggressive. Angry. It wasn’t me, but this was ridiculous! Why was all of this happening in one day?

Blake groaned as he shook his head at me.

“Don’t make this a big deal,” he said.

“But it is! And to think I trusted you enough to come to you for help…” I muttered before grinding my teeth. I parted my lips to shout some more, but I stopped.

It wouldn’t change a thing, and talking to him would just ruin my day even more.

“You know what? Whatever. There’s no point in us being together anyway. We obviously weren’t ever going to seriously work out because all you care about is yourself!”

“Oh, come on,” Blake scoffed.

I put my hand up to silence him before storming out of the bedroom, ignoring him calling out for me and the blonde chewing him out.

I grabbed my things and shut the front door behind me, my nostrils flaring with heavy breaths. This day sucked!

When I got in my car, I drove into town, went through a fast-food drive thru, and sat in the parking lot with a cheeseburger in one hand and my phone in the other.

At this point, I was basically stranded. I could always turn to Madison, but I didn’t want to bother her when she was busy being a mother and enjoying an amazing relationship with seven good guys.

I couldn’t even land in a relationship with one good guy!

But maybe this was for the best. There had to be a silver lining. Ialwaysbelieved that there was a silver lining in any bad situation.

My phone suddenly dinged, a new message notification for one of my group chats popping up at the top of my screen. I opened the message from one of my friends, Sara, my eyebrows lifting in interest.

Girls’ night @ Altitude tonite! Who’s coming?

Well, it wasn’t like I had anything else to do tonight. Having a few drinks and dancing the night away with some of my friends seemed like a good way to temporarily forget my troubles.

I could figure out what to do with my mess of a life tomorrow.

Me!

I sent my reply before looking in the backseat at my suitcase where one of my going out dresses was stashed in, a small smile crossing my lips.

Today was a terrible day, but that didn’t mean it had to be a terrible night too.
