The Biker's Rules 20 The universe is against me
***POV - Melaena I jump onto Alejandro’s back, falling over his head onto his lap. He tickles me and I eagerly roll away to sit next to Kiara. He tosses me a huge sandwich and says, “Here, I made this for you.” I take a big bite, chewing slowly with closed eyes, and let out a small, contented groan since I’m starving and this sandwich is amazingly delicious. Silence falls over the group and when I open my eyes, everybody is amusedly staring at me. “What? I’m hungry, okay,” I mutter and point at the bread in my hand, “and this is utterly divine.” I look into Alejandro’s teasing eyes and say, “You should think about opening a restaurant or something.” His eyes change, suddenly looking sad, although he keeps smiling. “I’ve put it on hold for a while,” he says softly, looking over to where Noah is talking on the phone, and I wonder what he means by that. I now also watch Noah … he seems worried or sad … maybe both, his free hand running through his deep red hair. He’s definitely of
The Biker's Rules 21 The truth finally told
***POV - Melaena I’ve never been to satan’s hide-out … aka Damion’s house. Not once. Never been allowed, or invited, for that matter. Kiara and I baptized it the ‘hell-house’ in our minds. And now I look at the breathtakingly beautiful two-story in awe. It’s mainly constructed out of limestone, with lots of glass, separated by iron and wood. It almost looks like a modern take on a mountain cottage, complete with a chimney and everything. It’s only bigger and L-shaped with a hipped roof. I slowly gawk at my surroundings while I walk on a pathway edged by green shrubs, colorful blooms, and shining lights. I think we need to find another name for this … it’s more like heaven than hell. A forest surrounds it, the trees forming dark silhouettes in the moonlight. On one side is a little wooden dock with a large pond; misty steam evaporates from the water, creating a magical atmosphere. Hundreds of fireflies drift like stars over the surface and it looks like a fantasy fair
The Biker's Rules 22 Listen to your heart
***POV - Melaena For a while everybody just sits silently, processing what we heard. Hayley got up and disappeared into the kitchen. I’m leaning back against Damion’s chest, his one hand absentmindedly stroking my arm. My nails are digging into the upholstery of the couch. “Did our father kill our mom?” Jackson asks and he looks so cool and calm like he’s been doing the SF Chronicle sudoku. How can he be this unaffected? I close my eyes … I don’t want to hear anymore … especially not this answer if it’s a ‘yes’. I can still remember bits and pieces of my parents, but I would never have thought for a million years that they were gang leaders. Well, I was only 10 when mom died, but still. “No, your dad has his flaws, but he truly loved your mother and you more than anything. We’re not sure who killed her, but they suspect that Harry did it out as retaliation. Additionally, it’s also conjectured that he was behind the car-bombing … but there’s no proof. Personally, I think
The Biker's Rules 23 Trying something new
***POV - Melaena "See anything you like?" He walks up to me and I bite my lower lip. If I have to be truthful … yes yes and yes … and add another yes … maybe a hundred more. But being truthful right now is not in my best interests … what do the intelligent people always say … never be too honest – always remember straight trees are cut first! And I don’t want to get cut tonight … it might just be painful. He cocks his head to the side when I don’t answer but just keeps on staring at that sculpted chest. Why does he have to be so darn perfect? He puckers up a smile and a blush rush to my cheeks as I quickly turn away feeling mighty embarrassed for being caught drooling. But in my defense … his body is just insane. "Maybe you should get cleaned up too. I'll put some clothes for you on my bed." He walks to the cupboard and drops the towel, exposing his blessedly naked bums of steel. I know he did it on purpose … damn, this man is not shy, and with a body like that, why shoul
The Biker's Rules 24 Beach walk
***POV - Melaena I wake up clinging to a pillow that smells like Damion and I take a deep breath, enjoying the familiar fragrance. I roll onto my back with a big smile and open my eyes slowly, not wanting to let this dream end. "Good, you're up.” I look lovingly at the guy sitting on the side of the bed. This really is a great dream. “I was getting tired of your snoring." I jump up when reality hits me, pulling the covers with me. I look around frantically. And just like that, the dream ends and the asshole is back. “I don’t snore!” He laughs and then hands me a cup of coffee. I eagerly take a sip of the hot beverage. If I ever needed a cup of coffee it would be right now. "You drool too, little angel. Probably from dreaming about me naked." His nickname for me somehow always makes me feel special like I belong to him somehow. Well, at least it's 100% better than 'babe'. "Gmf!" I snort, but he's not far from being wrong about my dream. “I see you still wake up
The Biker's Rules 25 Twenty questions
***POV - Melaena I know it would probably cause a revolution or the next World War if this was a real date. I slip my phone back into my pants. Damion looks at his phone and reads the messages and before I can say anything he shakes his head laughing. "They gave permission it seems as long as I keep my pants on. Yet, they said nothing about your pants needing to stay on.” I choke on some spit and start coughing viciously. He just laughs and takes my hand again. “So what's your answer?" He looks straight into my eyes and catawampus, I do want to go on a date with him, but not until he decides what he truly wants. "Maybe, but before we date, let's play 20 questions ... to get to know each other a little better," I throw the bone out there, hoping to get him to open up a bit. "Huh?" He looks down at me as a small wave splashes over our feet and I condemn those eyes of his. "Favourite TV series?" I ask to get things going. "I like GOT and Criminal Minds. You?" "Vam
The Biker's Rules 26 The experiment
***POV - Damion "What are we making?" "Stirfry." I pour her some wine and then we talk and laugh while cutting veggies and cooking rice. I always love to cook and mom showed me how to be skilled in the kitchen. She leans over the pan, fanning the scent towards her nose, sniffing deep, her eyes closed. Then she looks at me with a wicked smile, one that awakes my sleepy little man at once. "Extremely hot and he can cook. Maybe I should just marry you right now. We can always work on the attitude problem." "Be careful what you wish for, little angel." My eyes move over her body and land on her lips. She's blushing again and it drives me crazy. I take a sip of my water trying to cool down a little. I'm leaving for London in a few hours and I want … no need to spend as much time with her as possible. It’s getting harder and harder for me to focus on all the reasons why I should keep my distance. "But seriously, is there anything you can't do?" "Mmm, I can't sit st
The Biker's Rules 27 Bad boys fall the hardest
* ***POV - Damion Her dead phone suddenly rings, it must have dried out, and she picks it up to look at the caller alert, and then she puts it on speaker. "Hi, Kiara, how are you?" "Good, but when are you planning to get back? Ur bros are driving me insane. What do I tell them?" "Tell them to fuck off!" I butt in, giving my unrequested opinion. "Excuse me?" Kiara sounds surprised, probably because she didn't know I was listening. "Never mind him. Damion is being a dick as usual." She sticks her tongue out at me and I pull a face back. "He's a pain in my ass." "M.e.l." I draw out her name. "D.a.m.i.o.n." She does the same adding some sarcastic attitude. "What's up with you two?" Kiara asks. "Nothing," she answers too fast, cause something is definitely going on. I just can't let the opportunity to tease her pass me by. "We kissed. Now she's acting out." She looks at me as if the living-dead ate my brain. I’m sure she's seriously considering killing
