Free Biker Born: The Lost Souls MC Series (The Lost Souls Series Book 4) by Ellie R Hunter

weak, find out why she ran off before you give up on her. That’s if you haven’t already, her shift finishes in an hour.”
    With that, she’s gone and sitting on Micky’s lap as they sit around the kitchen table.
    Not allowing myself to think it over, I grab my keys and walk out. I don’t bother telling anyone where I’m going, Flo can fill them in.
    All the way to the diner I ride fast and hard, more to keep my attention on the road than on Rayna. I have a tendency to overthink things, this time I am not going to over think her, if it works, good, if it doesn’t, I’ll move on. I’m not doing this half in anymore though, we’re either together or we’re not.
    The car lot is empty when I pull in and park by the door. Flo said she had an hour left till the end of her shift. Getting here in a half hour, it leaves another half hour till she comes out. I’m prepared to wait for her though, making myself comfortable on my bike, I wait.
    With luck on my side, she finishes early on account there isn’t any customers in and blows out of the door in a blonde whirl.
    I see her surprise at seeing me here for a short second but she quickly covers it with coldness.
    “I thought I heard a bike pull up a while ago, have you been waiting all this time?” she says, digging around for her keys in her purse.
    “I wanted to see you but I didn’t want to interrupt you while you were working.”
    She slowly looks up and waits to see why I am here.
    “I wanted to apologise to you for what I did, I…”
    She cuts me off with a wave of her hand and speaks herself.
    “I understand why you did it, they guy was being a jerk. I have my reasons for why I left but it didn’t mean I didn’t want to see you again. I would have come to you but with you not coming in, I thought I’d messed us up. Whatever it is that we have anyway.”
    Fuck, she’s cute when she babbles on.
    I move towards her and close the distance between us. Tucking her hair behind her ear so I can see her face, I grip her chin to get her full attention and tell her what I have to say.
    “At the moment I have nothing to offer you apart from myself, I can only say sorry for letting you be in that shed on your own. I should’ve got our drinks but I’m not sorry for what went down after because I’d do it again if anyone apart from me touched you. It’s not in me to let the people I care about get hurt and not do anything about it.”
    “You care about me.”
    It wasn’t a question.
    “Yeah, I do. I want you to be mine and only mine. We’re staying in town permanently and I want us to be together and maybe one day you will tell me your reasons for leaving that night, you don’t have to now, but one day.”
    There I’ve said what I want, now it is up to her.
    “You sure took your time, Mark Blake,” she laughs.
    She leans up on her tip toes and kisses me before I can speak. Wrapping my arms around her, I kiss her back matching her hunger for our need to touch each other again.
    “Flo’s already with Micky so I’ve got the place to myself tonight. Do you want to come back to mine?” she asks, pulling away too soon.
    “Sure.”
    I release my hold on her and take hold of her hand.
    “It’s not far from here, you can follow me,” she says.
    “No.”
    “No?” she questions, raising her eyebrows.
    “I mean, ride on the back of my bike with me. I’ll bring you back to get your car in the morning,” I clarify.
    A smile creeps across her face and she leans up to kiss me again.
    “What makes you think you are staying till morning?” she teases.
    “You just agreed to be mine so I’ll be waking up with you as many mornings as possible.” I say, making it fucking clear where this is going.
    She doesn’t need any enticing to get on the bike and when her legs cling to my thighs and her arms wrap around my waist I know for sure I have made the right decision making her mine.
    The only drag is telling Michael our news and I hope for both our sakes that
