Pound laughed and looked to Elvis. “It’s the dick, man. How else could I have pulled a chick like this? Right, babe?”

“Yep, it’s totally the dick.”

Getting married by Elvis while straddling my sled?

Eighty-nine dollars, plus rush booking fee and tip.

Locking down the woman of my dreams who loves me and thinks my dick makes it all worthwhile?

Priceless.

MERI

BONUS SCENE

It hadn’t been the wedding she’d always just kind of expected she would have, but it was uniquely them.

The orgasm he was teasing from her body was the… shit, she’d lost count. Pound had been an animal since they’d returned from getting married.

The rest of the club would be rolling in from Reno any minute. The two of them had hopped in the shower to get cleaned up to meet them when they arrived. However, their bodies had a different idea.

“Fucking come already, woman. I can’t hold out much longer.” He growled into the back of her neck as he fucked her relentlessly from behind.

“I love you, Joe,” she breathed.

“That’s not helping, but I know what will.” He reached around her neck and squeezed. Almost completely cutting off her oxygen. It wasn’t something Meri had ever thought was sexy or even thought about at all, but Pound made her crave it.

She’d discovered a lot about herself lately, and no one was more surprised than her. For one, she wasn’t just boring Meri. Nurse, sister, mother. There was a whole other side of her that was coming to light.

As the ripples of pleasure started coursing through her, she threw her arms back and grabbed handfuls of Joe’s wet hair. Pulling with all her might as she flew over the edge.

“Fuck, babe. Harder.”

Wait, that was her line.

Ohhh.

She tightened her hold on his hair and yanked with all her might as a silent scream of bliss left her body.

“Fuck yeah.” Joe thrust into her one last time and loosened his grip on her throat. She felt his release like a missile. He rained little kisses on her shoulder as he shuddered inside her.

The water splashed up from the bottom of the shower, but other than that, they weren’t in the flow until he spun her around and slipped from her body.

Silently, he lathered up shampoo and washed her hair. When he started sudsing up her breasts, she had to put a stop to it.

“If you don’t let me wash myself, we’re going to miss your brothers arriving, not to mention Trip with the kids. So, stop, mister, and let’s get clean.”

After she was rinsed, they switched their positions. “But I love it when you’re dirty,” he joked.

She liked his new attitude… a lot. He’d always been so serious and dry, but he had a funny side. And a sensitive side too. Meri knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that he loved her more than anything. If she asked him to give up riding or his club for her, he would. Even though he’d be killing himself slowly if he did, he’d still do it if she asked. He was extreme, just like he’d said.

It hit her how precious and rare a gift that was from a man like him. He’d given her control of his very soul. Meri was overwhelmed with what it all meant.

When they stepped from the shower, she wrapped her arms around him and looked into his denim eyes. She made vows he hadn’t asked for, but she knew his heart needed.

“I see you, Joe. All of you and I love everything you are and everything you have ever been or ever will be. I’ll safeguard anything you trust me with. Your heart, your secrets… you. There’s nothing you can ever do that will change that. I’ll always believe in you. And hear this, Mr. Blackwell, I will never push you away when I’m hurting. If you promise to not do the same, we can hurt and heal together.”
