Angela wasn’t a meek little mouse. She was the woman of the most notorious biker enforcer. It gave her many rights, and one of those rights was getting into his space.

The man was into her in a big way, plus; she was a big deal in his world, so why wouldn’t he want some snowed-in days with her?

Finding him in the laundry room feeding the stray kittens, she melted every time she saw him tending to the babies.

“You look so hot doing that,” she sighed dreamily, resting in the doorway while he held a kitten in his bigger hand. He cocked his head back, arching an indulging eyebrow her way.

“You’re oversexed, angel.”

“Your fault. Are you going to feed me now? Food, I mean.”

“I left you snacks to eat during your class.”

“I had those ages ago. You know if I cook, I’ll burn the cabin down, and in this weather, we’re likely to be eaten by a polar bear. I’m saving your life, really, Lawless.”

His coddling stares made her happy.

He didn’t say I Love You. But she paid attention to Lawless’ actions, and they were more than enough to know he cared.

For one, he’d forbidden her to get in the newly fixed Ram to drive down the mountain, or he’d tie her up. And two, he’d said if she dared step outside for anything, he’d chain her to a radiator. That man had such a kinky fetish for tying her up.Ugh, she loved him.

“How magnanimous of you,” he smirked, leaving the fur babies in their bed. She was going to be so bummed when they were re-homed.

“Honestly, I’m sure the city will give me an award soon,” she preened.

Snow days meant lounging clothes. Their gray sweatpants matched.

Lawless fed her.

Then beat her spectacularly at a game of chess.

“It’s not fair! You’re a genius.”

“Practice,” he replied, like she hadn’t been working her ass off to beat him.

Robinne: I’m in hell. I got stuck at Jenna’s.

Angela: That’s a bad thing? I thought you liked her.

Robinne: For a hookup!!! Not to spend days at her apartment. I’m gonna put on my snowshoes and try to get home.

Angela: A polar bear will get you!

Robinne: Worth the risk. She’s talking about going home with her at Christmas.

Robinne: I only wanted an orgasm, not a family get-together!

Cackling reading her friend’s texts, Angela switched text threads.

Angela: You guys safe? No polar bears outside the door?

Zara: Define safe, lol. Annie and Ajax are staying with us. Rider resembles a bear, he and his dad have done nothing but bicker. How are you guys?

Angela: Is it wild that I think Ajax is a hot older guy?

Angela: And we’re good. Lawless hasn’t killed me yet.

Zara: Let’s not talk about your fetish for older men, yeah?
