of such sweet passion that it almost broke my heart. I could feel him holding back, his desire to be gentle with me fighting with the growing desires of a man. His cock throbbed hard between us and I pressed my body into him, kissing him back fervently, wanting to somehow let him know how much I needed him, too.
CHAPTER THIRTEEN
Ryder
Rock music poured out of the windows of the clubhouse as we roared up. Dozens of my brothers, all wearing Gods of Chaos cuts, were streaming in and out of the door, while others were outside, bottles of beer and whiskey clutched in tattooed fists, standing in a circle and cheering on whatever was going on inside. I could n’ t see through the crowd, but I knew what was there. I groaned as I took off my helmet, shaking my head to warn Sam that it might not be so pleasant.
“ Wha t’ s going on ?” she asked.
“ Riot. Slade. The y’ re fucking idiots ,” I said.
“ What are they doing ? ” The sound of a loud smack echoed through the trees, followed by a loud raucous cheer from the crowd.
“ Bleeding, probably ,” I replied, shaking my head. “ You can see for yourself. Come on . ” I grabbed her hand, pulling her through the crowd.
When we broke through, Riot was pinned to the ground and Slade was sitting on top of him. They were covered in dirt, their bare chests streaked with blood and mud. Huge smiles stretched across both of their faces, as they beamed at each other through blood-stained teeth.
“ Looks like we got here just in time for the after-fight make out session ,” I said, just as Slade jumped off Riot, grabbing Rio t’ s outstretched hand and hoisted him up to his feet. They hugged, patting each other on the back hard, and then threw their arms around each other and walked out of the circle. Another raucous round of cheering erupted from the crowd as they parted to let them pass through. Slade reached down and scooped up a helmet at his feet that was overflowing with crumpled cash. Victoriously, he held it up over his head as he passed by.
“ Hey, Ryder ,” Slade said, grinning.
“ Hey, Slade. You win today ? ”
“ Sure did, brother !” he replied.
“ I let this mother fucker win !” Riot said, his cheek smeared with drying blood. “ I ca n’ t stand the sight of his little girl tears when he loses ! ”
“ Yeah, yeah, you fucks are insane ,” I said, turning to Sam. “ You want another drink ? ”
“ Sure, a beer sounds great ,” she replied, as the crowd began thinning out, everyone spreading out around the various bikes parked in front of the house or going inside.
I glanced down at her, and felt my heart skip a beat. Those fucking eyes of hers were going to kill me if I did n’ t get a fucking grip on myself.
I reached down, quickly brushing those full, perfect fucking lips with mine. She tasted like salt, and I felt my cock swell as I kissed her again.
If I had n’ t been so hyper-aware of everyone around us, I would have done a hell of a lot more than kiss her. But I did n’ t. I stopped. Turned. Left her there.
Like an asshole.
CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Grace
I looked around as Ryder walked inside, feeling completely at a loss with what to do with myself.
I spotted Cherry and Tiff on the porch, leaning against the railing, and I walked over to them. Tiff smiled and Cherry squinted her eyes, her gaze traveling from my head to my toes.
“ Well, well, well ,” she slurred, her eyes bloodshot and watery ,“ if it is n’ t Sleeping Beauty ! ”
“ Sam ,” I said. “ You can call me Sam . ”
“ Sam? Did you remember who you are then ?” Tiff asked, excitedly.
“ Oh, no ,” I said, looking away, wishing that I had .“ Nothin g’ s come back. Ryder and I just decided I needed a name in the meantime . ”
“ Ryder and I ?” Cherry snarled. Her lip curled and she looked
