I had, it had never felt this good. She fit me like a glove. Shaking my head, I tried to dispel the thoughts invading my mind and took off like a bat outta hell.
We reached the Silver Saints compound a little less than an hour later. Once inside the main garage, I shut off my bike and helped Bridget to her feet. As she swung her leg over, she lost her balance and went tumbling into my chest.
Son of a bitch. Riding with her wrapped around me had made me hard as fuck but when she was pressed against my front, I thought my dick was gonna burst through my damn jeans. She looked up at me with wide, deep blue eyes, her pink lips slightly parted, and her skin flushed. I could too easily imagine how she would look after being thoroughly fucked and I shoved her away quickly, trying to get some control.
I hadn’t kidnapped her to make her my plaything. I didn’t roll that way—she was simply leverage for the swap. I had no intention of corrupting Pierce’s innocent little princess, no matter how tempting the idea was. The last thing I needed was to jeopardize the plan by getting involved with her. Besides, I reminded myself, she’s too damn young for you. I was old enough to be her motherfucking father.
After removing her helmet, I grasped her arm and towed her behind me to the clubhouse. “Do what I tell you, keep out of the way, and you’ll be headed home to your palace as soon as your asshole father does what I want,” I explained as we walked.
We entered through a side door so I could take her down the hall to my office without parading her through the front room. Just the idea of anyone else leering at her had my blood boiling. I was so intent on our destination that I almost plowed into Cat when she stepped out of the kitchen.
Cat looked Bridget up and down before turning to me with a curious and slightly disgusted expression. “That Pierce’s little princess?” she asked.
“Bridget,” I corrected, surprisingly irritated at Cat’s description and attitude. “Don’t want any of the other girls or old ladies hassling her.” I gave Cat a hard look. “I’m putting you in charge of her.”
Cat narrowed her grassy green eyes and pursed her lips for a moment, but simply nodded.
“Making the call to Pierce now, then I’ll put her in my room.”
Cat’s eyebrows practically went through the roof, and Bridget made a muffled noise that I didn’t take the time to interpret. Cat clearly thought I’d lost my mind, and I didn’t completely disagree with her. Yeah, it was a stupid fucking move but while I would trust my brothers with my life, I didn’t trust them with Bridget.
I stepped around Cat, effectively dismissing her, and continued dragging Bridget to my office. Inside, I slammed the door shut and walked her to a worn couch pushed up against the left wall. “Sit.” When she obeyed without question, I nodded and went to sit at my desk.
My eyes strayed to Bridget as I dialed Pierce’s number. She was gazing around the room, her eyes more curious than apprehensive. Her reactions to everything were throwing me off kilter. I’d expected her to be terrified and to throw a spoiled tantrum, not to be so damn cooperative.
“Whaddyou want, Mac?” Pierce grunted when he answered.
“Same thing I wanted the last time we talked, jackass,” I snarled.
“Well fuck off. Haven’t changed my mind and I’m not gonna.”
“How about a trade?”
“Ain’t nothin’ you got that I’d ever want, Mac.”
“That’s where you’re wrong, Pierce,” I sneered smugly. I put the phone on speaker and pointed at Bridget. “Say hello to Daddy, princess.”
She blanched and stared at me as she answered. “Um, hi Daddy.”
“WHAT THE FUCK?” Pierce roared. Bridget flinched, but I just smiled maniacally. “I will fucking kill you, Mac.”
“Relax, Pierce. I have no intention of hurting or violating your perfect spawn. I’m suggesting a straight up trade. Bridget for the motherfucker who put my guy in a coma.”
Pierce didn’t say anything at first, the only sound his heavy breathing, as he tried to calm his temper. “It’ll take me some time to find him—”
“One week,” I snapped without letting him finish. “You don’t have him by then, your little girl will have to earn her keep around here.” I hung up before Pierce could get in another word.
Bridget’s eyes were wide as she stared at me.
