“We know that you have had a crush on Jack for years, and we also know why you stepped back, honey. That was a good thing that you did, and I know that Jack thinks so too. He was in a tough situation with having Dom, and Jack needed to focus on him. Even years after, you still kept your distance with him; I think you both needed to find yourselves before this could happen,” Tree explains.

I nod, completely understanding what she is saying.

Watching Jack from a distance was bittersweet; I loved watching him being a father to Dominic. Loved seeing him grow and become the man he is today, but it also hurt seeing women hang all over him, seeing him smile and flirt with them, wishing it was me.

I know that I had no claim over him, so I tried not being where he was. If I saw him in the street I hid in a store, or at the beach I would leave, not wanting to see him with half-naked girls touching him.

“It was for the best back then, but it seems that Jack is done waiting.” I sigh. “He told me that we will go at my pace, that he will not push me. He knows all about Christopher and what my mother is doing about the wedding. That is why he offered to come with me.”

“What do you think of him going as your plus one?” Kady adds.

Nibbling my lip again I think over her question, but it doesn’t take long for the answer to hit my brain. The need to see how my family reacts to seeing Jack at my side. To see how they will react to me having a hot plus one, a man who will treat me how I should be treated.

Vanessa and her cronies will not be happy that I will be there with a man like Jack, one who will outshine all other men in the room. They have always looked down on me, they would even flirt with Christopher in front of me, offering themselves to him, telling him that I couldn’t keep a man of his caliber.

“I want to show my family, as well as Vanessa and Christopher, that I am perfectly fine without him. That he did me a favor leaving me, because I have a man like Jack Masters at my side.”

“YES,” Kady yells, scaring the couple next to us.

“I am sorry. She has not taken her medication this morning,” I offer them. “Coffee is on me.”

“High-five, sister.” I slap my hand against hers, Tree joining in.

“I would love to be a fly on the wall at the wedding.” Tree laughs.

“Thank fuck, we are on the other side of the family,” Kady chimes in.

“Will you come shopping with me?” I ask them, and they both nod.

We set up a time and day to go shopping for a complete outfit for me. One that speaks to me and not my mother or her high-society fake friends.

This wedding will be an opportunity for me to show my parents that I can stand on my own two feet and be successful, with a support system at my back, even if they are a biker club.

CHAPTER SEVEN

JACK

The wind whips around as we ride down the highway toward Gainesville.

We are on a hunt, looking for some dumb fucking punk who took a loan from some people and then bolted so he didn’t have to pay it back. Unlucky for this sucker, Maverick found him. Now we are on our way to catch the little shit, get the money back, and give him a little beating to show him that ripping people off is not a good thing to do, especially when they have the money to pay people like the Rugged Hunters to find them and cause some pain as a reminder.

Royal is next to me, with Lennox and Silas just behind us.

Over the past few days, I have had Lilith on my mind. I even dream about her when I go to sleep, causing me to wake up with my cock hard and throbbing.

I come to images of her taking me into her hot mouth, or her riding me as I watch her big tits bounce.

She sent me a text last night, telling me that her screwed-up mother accepted her plus-one request, so I finally got me afucking date with Lilith, one I will not waste. I plan on teasing her, making her know that I want her, but I will not touch her unless she asks or begs, whichever comes first.

People see me as the quiet one of the club, next to Finan, but I like my sex dirty, and I fucking love dirty talk. Judging by the way Lilith’s eyes dilated when I told her what I wanted to do to her, I think she likes a little dirty too.

I will give her sweet and slow if she asks for it, the dirty is not a need for me.

My only need is her.

My dick thickens behind my zipper, so I try to shake off the images of Lilith screaming my name as she comes all over me.

Royal signals for us to pull off at the next exit. We all follow him, until we stop at a gas station.
