Free Night Sky (Satan's Sinners MC Book 3) by Colbie Kay Page A

what the fuck is wrong with me? I can't be friends with her. Every time I'm around her, I wanna touch her or kiss her. My cock grows hard just thinking about all the things I wanna do to Ever.
    Thinking about pushing her into the wall and sinking so deep inside her, it takes away everything from both of us. Sad thing is, I know it would take every bit of the pain, anger, and hurt that both of us have left. It would be gone, just like that. I can't fall back into her though, if I did and she decided to leave again, I wouldn't survive it a second time.
    To say it's been awkward would be an understatement. When she’s around, I have to push the whores off of me, which isn't making them very happy. Ever and I smile and wave at each other, but it’s mostly in passing, we haven't even been able to stay in the same vicinity for any certain amount of time. The sexual tension is suffocating and I'm a broody sonofabitch. I am pretty confident in saying that we both of us are feeling it, along with everyone else that's around us
    If we’re in the same space for any length of time, she stays on one side of the bar, talking to the girls or playing with the kids, while I stay on the other.

    Here I am again at the pool tables, watching her and waiting for Daphne to show up to meet with Hanger. She looks beautiful today, with her hair down and wearing an oversized gray sweater with a black skull on it, paired with black leggings and black boots. She has that smile on her face that I fell in love with, as she shakes from laughter at the kids.
    She is holding Damien, Hanger and Zoey's son, and it pulls at my heartstrings every time I see her with them or holding one. I can't help but to think how great of a mom she would’ve been to the kids we were supposed to have.
    The clubhouse door opens and in walks Daphne. She spots me and walks right over while smiling and waving. I sneak a look at Ever to see if she is watching, not hoping she will be jealous, just that this is really uncomfortable between us.
    Sure enough, she is, and she has a dumbfounded look to her and I’m pretty sure I will be doing some damage control later. Right now though, I have club business to take care of, so I pull out my pen and paper, asking Daphne if she is ready to do this. She gives me a nod so I lead her towards the hallway. I get one last look in at Ever and she is furious, with eyes glaring and biting the inside of her cheek. She always did that if she was pissed or irritated about something.
    We get to Hanger's office and I knock on the door, then we stand waiting for him to come answer. When he does, he ushers us inside and we both sit in the seats across from his. He goes behind his desk, taking his seat, then starts speaking and signing, “You must be Daphne. It's nice to meet you.”
    They shake hands before he asks, “Do you know why we are here today?”
    He doesn't let me miss out on anything as he signs her part of the conversion.
    It's nice to meet you too, Hanger, and I have an idea so why don't you tell me? Before you start, I want you to know that I will listen to what you have to say, but I'm not making any promises.
    “I understand.” He leans his chair back before adding, “It seems my brothers, Hunter and Writer, think you might be interested in doing some business with us.”
    I jump in, We've been coming to your shop for the last year and we’ve brought in a lot of money for you. We could bring in so much more if you do this deal with us. Hanger relays to her what I had to say, and I can see the wheels turning in her head.
    Hanger starts in before she has a chance to say anything. “It's a win-win for the both of us.”
    She finally responds. How is it a win win? I’ll have to give up a piece of my business to a man. I did this on my own and I told myself I would never be dependent on any man again. Then here you come, wanting a piece of it.
    “Daphne, I don't wanna take anything. The business will still be all yours. I
