The biker who broke fate

The biker who broke fate

Maya Chen has one goal: survive university on her scholarship and build a better life for herself and her younger sister. She works two jobs, rides a beat up Kawasaki, and keeps her head down while wealthy classmates mock her thrift store clothes. Romance isn't on her radar, especially not with someone like Dominic Blackwood. Dominic is everything Maya despises. The son of a business mogul, president of the Iron Wolves Motorcycle Club, and a notorious playboy who goes through women like they're disposable. Their worlds should never collide. But when Maya's bike breaks down in dangerous territory and she's cornered by a rival gang, Dominic and his club arrive just in time. To protect her, he does the unthinkable: he claims her as his in front of everyone. In the world of motorcycle clubs, that claim means she's untouchable. It also means she's his. Maya insists their arrangement is fake, just protection until things cool down. Dominic agrees, but his actions say otherwise. He shows up at her job. Walks her to class. Makes her feel things she swore she'd never feel. The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to remember this isn't real. Then the threats escalate. The rival gang wants revenge and Maya becomes their target. Dominic will do anything to keep her safe, even if it costs him everything. Maya realizes she's falling for the one person she promised herself she'd never trust. When violence erupts and lives hang in the balance, Maya must decide: keep running from love to protect her independence, or fight for the man who's been fighting for her all along. Sometimes the biggest risk leads to the greatest reward. Sometimes you have to crash before you can truly ride free.

Chapter: Chapter 75: Close Call
Month six hit and Maya couldn't see her feet no more, back ached something awful and her ankles were swollen like grapefruits.She holed up in that room reading whatever books the library had, going nuts while Dominic pulled extra shifts to cover what she wasn't bringing in.Tuesday afternoon the fridge was empty and the cabinets too, Dominic wouldn't get back till past nine so she threw on his old hoodie and headed to the corner market.Grabbed what they needed, milk and bread and some soup cans, nothing fancy.Girl at checkout was young and chatty, "Oh wow when you due?""Few months out," Maya kept it short."Your first?""Yep.""That's so cool, got a name picked?""Not yet," Maya lied straight through her teeth, wasn't about to get personal with some stranger.She paid cash like always and got out quick, made it maybe two blocks when this squad car rolled past real slow.Maya didn't break stride, kept her eyes forward but caught the red brake lights flick on in her peripheral.Ches

They drove for six hours straight, didn't stop except for gas they paid in cash and kept moving.Maya watched the signs change, different states, different names, getting farther from everything they knew."You okay?" Dominic asked."Yeah," Maya said. "Just thinking.""About what?""Everything we left," Maya said. "My job. The apartment. Sophie. Your dad. All of it.""Can't think about that," Dominic said. "Gotta focus forward. Not back.""I know," Maya said. "Just hard."They crossed into Pennsylvania around four. Sun getting low. Stomachs empty."Need to eat," Dominic said.
