“I can’t win with you!” he snapped and shook his head. “You are impossible.”

“I wanted you to ask me because you wanted me to be your girlfriend, not because you felt like I made you.”

“Women,” he huffed. “All they do is mind fuck you. This is why I don’t do relationships!”

“You’re not in a relationship,” I pointed out, and glanced at the closed door. I was surprised not one of the guys had come in, given all the yelling. “So you’re safe Jax. You don’t have to have your mind consumed with relationship problems.”

“You know what, fine!” Jax stormed away from me. “I’ve got an endless line up of women who won’t whine at me to be my girlfriend,” he screamed over his shoulder.

“Don’t worry Jax, I won’t be asking you again,” I spat at his back as he opened the door. “We aren’t friends either.”

Jax growled at me before slamming the door behind him, hard.

“FUCKING WOMEN!” he roared outside the closed door, and I heard something being thrown before his heavy footsteps disappeared.

I hated men. No, I hated Jackson.

That was a lie. The whole reason I was this worked up and angry was because… I cared for him. Stupid, selfish bikie he was.

Chapter 24

Jax

I wasn’t known for having great control on my temper; when things were getting to me, I would just let it out but when it came to Amber, I couldn’t.

So I was permanently in a bad mood.

The boys were over my answers, sick of my bad attitude. I knew that, but it still wasn’t stopping me from taking my frustration out on anyone that got in my way.

Amber wanted strings. I didn’t do strings. I didn’t do relationships and I sure as fuck didn’t do girlfriends.

So, how could she ask the two things of me I was incapable of giving? To top that off, she was flat out ignoring me.

Didn’t help I was ignoring her too though.

I ignored the fact that she made me go crazy. I tried to ignore her the other day when she was in the garage working on one of her dirt bikes, wearing only a bikini top and shorts. Why she was only wearing that was beyond me; I guess it had something to do with the weather.

Then I did my very best to ignore her at school, even when she wore clothes that showed off every inch of her body.

I don’t think she realized she did it. Showing off her figure like that.

She basically had boys drooling over her.

But her reputation kept them all at bay.

Then when she wasn’t torturing me at school, or at the place I am forced to now call home, she was at the clubhouse because one of her idiot brothers brought her.

She had taken a shine to the prospects. Maybe because she knew their names and didn’t just bark orders at them.

I caught her confronting Luke when one of the club girls ended up going after Cole instead. I didn’t know Amber did feelings, or cared about anyone but herself, but she proved me wrong yet again.

Just like she proved me wrong when I thought her and I were on the same page about where we were heading.

I didn’t do girlfriends. Surely she should have known that?

Did my reputation say nothing to her?

I glared down at Adam as he worked on the motor.
