back or shaking his hand with a warm welcome, and he couldn’t fathom this being the same group he’d met such a short time ago that seemed in staunch opposition of accepting outsiders. And when it came to Brett holding a seat at the table, he couldn’t have been more proud.
Emotions roiled within him, but more than anything, he wanted to get back to Brett’s apartment and be alone with her. He grew impatient as he stopped to talk to Rafe, Zeke, and Rocky. “Did you guys see this coming?” he asked.
“I had an inkling,” Rafe told him.
Rocky rolled his eyes. “Dennis asked me what I thought while he stayed at the clubhouse. We talked a lot about it, and about what the Silver Suns needed, and we came to the conclusion that you were probably the man for the job. These guys need someone to believe in. They lost the man they followed blindly, they just found out they had a traitor in their midst, and they’ve hit rock bottom. You know our operations, and you know them well enough to start delegating tasks based on who they are and where they’ll be useful. And your relationship with Brett will help cement you in.”
Ethan supposed he couldn’t argue. “What about Corey? Is he alright with this?”
Rafe nodded. “We wouldn’t have let the vote go through if he wasn’t. You’ve proven yourself here. Stop asking questions and enjoy it.”
And that made more sense than anything. Ethan could analyze this all day, try to decide if it would really work, but he didn’t need to waste his time. He’d told Brett they would work everything out somehow, and for once in his life, everything seemed to be working out in his favor. They only thing he needed to worry about was making Brett happy. That would be the biggest challenge.
She stood outside waiting for him, wearing the most beautiful grin and looking remarkably sexy in the Devil’s Flames cut. As he approached she asked, “If you’re my club brother now, does that make our relationship incestuous?”
Ethan barked a laugh and shook his head. “No, I think it’s more list stepsiblings. We’re not actually related. Which is good because I want to take you home and play with you right now.”
“What am I, a toy?” she asked, feigning offense. But he saw the way her pupils dilated at the idea.
“Only if you want to be,” he retorted, draping his arms loosely around her waist. “The question is, do we go to my place or yours?”
She wrinkled her nose. “I’ve got files spread out everywhere at my place. Our best bet is your place.” Ethan didn’t need to hear it twice, straddling his bike and cranking it into gear while Brett climbed on behind him. The feel of her arms wrapped around him, her chest pressed against his back, had his excitement surging, and he drove quickly back to town and his apartment.
He tried to remain patient, since she was still moving a little slow, but once inside, he pressed her against the closed door and took her mouth eagerly, devouring her and feeling her anxious response deep in his chest. His cock hardened instantly and he grinded his hips against her, letting her feel the evidence of his desire. She arched her back, pushing against him and groaning in response.
He could smell her arousal, and he slipped his hand between her thighs, feeling the moisture already soaking through her jeans. It drove him wild, and he stroked her through the material, reveling in her tiny mewling noises as she rubbed against his hand. Her fingers gripped his shoulders, already pushing at his cut and then tugging on his shirt until he impatiently stepped back and tore it over his head.
He shoved her cut down her arms and pulled her shirt and bra off in one yank, dipping his head to taste her pert nipple. She moaned loudly, tracing her fingertips down his spine and raising goosebumps on his skin. He shivered with delight, raining kisses over her chest and back up her throat until he captured her lips again, drinking from her and letting her draw from him.
She hissed in a breath, and he knew he needed to be gentle. Her ribs were still bothering her, but in this moment, he couldn’t control his need for her. And she seemed to be in a similar frenzy, pushing him back but then taking him by the hand and all but running across the
