“It can’t happen again, darlin’. When I take you to the clubhouse, you don’t just up and disappear. We have rules regarding the women—”

She laughed. “Does that include the sweet tarts?”

“As a matter of fact, it does.”

“Oh. And how about the mother of your children?”

Her comment made it clear that Mandy had told her that we had a child together. “Definitely,” I said without hesitation. “When I have one.” I could tell that Leo wanted to say more, but she didn’t. “The only child I have with Mandy is in her head, darlin’. The woman has a screw loose.”

“Are you saying you don’t have a son with Mandy? She was just here...”

“Yeah, I saw the bitch. But that’s not what I want to talk to you about.”

She stopped backing away only because she bumped into the file cabinet. I rushed forward and trapped her in the prison of my arms before she could move. She caught her breath and stared up at me.

“Okay, what do you want to talk about?” She licked her lips nervously. “I already said I was sorry for leaving the clubhouse.”

“That’s not good enough, Leo. In my world when our women do something stupid and reckless—” The fire in her eyes revealed that she didn’t like what I was saying. “—we punish them.”

“Punish!” she snorted with disbelief, and then she laughed. “That’s ridiculous! This isn’t the eighteen hundreds, Eagle. If you touch me—”

She caught her breath when I leaned into her, letting her feel all of me. “I’m touching you now,” I growled into her face. I made sure my hardening dick was nestled right against her mound.

“You...you know what I mean.” Her words were barely above a whisper.

“Well, news flash, darlin’, there are ways to punish you with touch that won’t hurt but will drive you mad.” I gave her time for those words, and their subtle meaning, to sink in.

Her eyes widened when she figured it out. I tucked her hair behind her ear and watched her eyes dilate with awareness. “I would never hurt you, darlin’. But if you pull a stunt like that again, you will suffer. If you haven’t figured out that you’re my woman by now, I’ll just have to work harder at proving it.”

I leaned in and put my mouth against her neck, nibbling softly at the silken flesh there. Leo shivered against me, and her hands clutched at the front of my cut. A whimper escaped her, and she tilted her head in a silent invitation for me to keep going. With pleasure, I thought, sucking at a spot right beneath her ear.

“I came here with the intention of tanning your ass, but your apology saved you from that. Next time I won’t stop.” I pulled back to meet her eyes. “Do you have any questions?”

“If I’m your woman, does that mean we’re exclusive?”

I was a little offended that she had to ask, but I figured that Leo must know enough about MCs by now to know that some brothers weren’t monogamous. I, however, was a loyal fuck when I was in a relationship, and it was time to accept that I was in one with Leo. I wanted her. No one else. And I wanted to see where this went with us. I liked what I saw between Wolfe and Ella, and Bear and Val.

I knew Leo was waiting for my response, and finally I said, “So fucking exclusive that you’ll think my dick has taken up permanent residence inside your sweet, tight pussy.” I heard a knock at the door, but I ignored it. I kissed her, and it wasn’t soft or sweet, but it showed Leo exactly how intense my feelings for her were.

She moaned and kissed me back, opening her mouth to me so our tongues could dance. The taste of coffee and something minty on her breath turned me on. There was a second knock at the door, which I ignored again. I knew it was one of my brothers, and they could fucking wait. I ground my dick against Leo, wishing we were alone and I could have my way with her.

“Give us a fucking minute!” I growled loudly at knock number three. I glanced over at the door, which had a square window at the top, to see Mac’s ugly grin as he watched us. I looked back at Leo to see a beautiful flush on her cheeks, her eyes glossy and her pink lips wet and swollen. “I’ll come by for you after work and we’ll go for that ride I promised you.”

“So it’s safe for me to go home?” she asked, revealing that she hadn’t been home from wherever it was she’d gone after she’d left the clubhouse.

“Where the fuck were you, by the way?”

“My parents’, and before you ask, I usually don’t answer my phone when I’m visiting them.”

I released a deep sigh, not happy with that information.

“No more Maniacs?” she asked.

I nodded, not willing to go into club business. “No worries.”

“Goddamnit, Brother, I gotta take a piss!”

We both burst out laughing. I reluctantly moved away from Leo and unlocked the door for him. “What the fuck is wrong with the restroom out there?”
