“Saxon,” Nary cried.

“Parker,” I bit out harshly. I glanced quickly to see Parker was holding Nary back, and then I turned my attention to the old, fat man in front of me. I loosened my hold on his neck, just a little, so he could breathe, and then I snarled in his face. “You don’t know me anymore. You don’t know what I’m capable of. So you need to learn now that I never want to see your face again. I’m not only me. I’m Hawks. I have a fuckin’ army at my back, and if I can’t get to you to end your life, one of my brothers will gladly step up. I don’t like the way you spoke to my woman. She’s been through enough. What you need to understand, the man who touched her, took her from me, lost his fingers and tongue. He can’t walk properly because of the way me and my brothers worked him over. He can’t go to the cops because he can’t communicate. He’s not the first one I’ve fucked with, and he won’t be my last. If I see you again, you’ll be just another fuckhead who couldn’t keep his mouth shut.” Searching his face, I saw it. Fear. And then I smiled. “You get me.” Stepping back, I said, “Get the fuck outta here and never show your face again. You hear me, old man?”

“Y-yes,” he stuttered before he ran around to the driver side, got in his car, and took off.

Turning, I looked to my woman, who was eyeing me back with soft, sad eyes. I didn’t want her eyes sad for me. I didn’t give a flying fuck he’d come and tried his shit with us. I was older, stronger, and I was better because I had my woman at my side.

“Parker?”

“Yeah, brother?” His lips twitched. Hell, maybe he could see the hard-on I had for my woman. She’d had my back, wanted to protect me. I didn’t care how he knew I was in a mood to have my woman, but he did know, and he thought it was funny.

“Ring Pick or Billy, tell ’em we won’t be over to help cook.”

“Saxon?” Nary said, her brows raised high in confusion.

“Will do. Have a good day, you two.” Parker grinned.

“We will,” I said with a wicked smile. Nary took it in. Her head jerked back a little, still not knowing what was goin’ on in my head. It was then I stalked forward.

Her hands came up in front of her. “Saxon, don’t be upset with me. I was just trying to save you from seeing that idiot man.”

My strides ate the path quickly, and then my woman let out a squeal when I picked her up and threw her over my shoulder. Parker’s laughter was left behind as I made my way into the building and up the stairs, takin’ two at a time.

I had our door opened, closed, and locked in a matter of moments before I was stalking down the hall and into our bedroom. All while my woman was over my shoulder trying to calm me down, saying she didn’t mean for her to deal with my father. She was just looking out for me, and she thought it better if I didn’t have to face him.

I flung her to the bed. Her back hit it and she scrambled to her elbows and kept on going, “…really, you shouldn’t have to put up with him. I was trying to do you a favour—”

“Angel,” I growled out low.

She blinked, and said, “Yes?”

“What you did for me, trying to protect me, what you said, meant a shitload. You know how much I love you?”

“Yes.” She smiled, her eyes warming.

“Good. ’Cause now I’m gonna show you how much. Been holding off, wanted it to be perfect, have flowers, candles, and all that shit, because you deserve the best. But can’t hold off any longer. Wanna be inside you, angel. Wanna feel you wrapped around me. You ready to take your man?”

“God, yes,” she sighed, and I just knew her pussy would be drenched for me.

“Get naked, angel,” I ordered and pulled my tee off. It was comical how quickly she stripped. I had my button on my jeans opened by the time my woman was on the bed naked and ready.

Slowly, I lowered my jeans and boxers and kicked them off. I stood at the end of the bed, my cock still hard as fuck, while I admired my angel on the bed waiting for me. A frown marred my lips when I said, “Fuckin’ hate that it’s gonna hurt you the first time.”

“It will be worth it.Youare worth it.”

Climbing onto the bed, my woman spread her legs, and I could see she was soaking for me. Dipping in, I kissed her stomach, and she shivered. Looking up, I said, “You say the perfect things to ease me.” Kissin’ my way up to claim her mouth, she moaned. Pulling back, I admitted, “Realised, this being our first time together, it will be one to remember forever.”

Her breath came fast. “It will be.”

I took my cock in hand and swiped it against her slickness. “Always hoped to lose our virginity together and finally it’s becoming real.”

Her eyes widened. “You mean my virginity?”

Shaking my head. “No, angel.Our. Never had anyone before. I knew it wouldn’t mean somethin’ unless it was you.”

“But all those—”

“A ploy. Never done shit with them.” I kissed her neck, bit her earlobe, and added, “They weren’t you.” I chuckled. “Fuck, Nary, I can feel your heart race against mine.”
