Page 13 of Legend
Turning, I saw Glory coming toward me. Damn, she was so fucking stunning. Gorgeous, tough and yes, just like my dad and brother found out…she was mouthy as all hell. Didn’t matter to me. She had been a firecracker since I’d known her. Fifteen…she had been 15 years old when I first arrived here. I was almost 18 at that time.
The first thing she ever said to me was… “Your Road name is Legend? Why? Are you just one in your own mind? Cause if you are, you can kiss my ass.”
I had stared at her wide eyed as her brothers all laughed.
For a couple of years, her one-liners and scorching razzing didn’t quit. She was a smart mouth with me whenever I was around her. She would ask me if I rescued a princess that was not in a game or what grand deed I'd accomplished to be this so-called legend. I was away for six months at a time for medical school and it was rough. Anyone who tells you that medical college was a cakewalk would be nothing but a liar. I told her once that anyone who could go to school for eight years like me was at least a worthy hero. It had actually shut her up during that visit.
Then at around seventeen, she was smiling at me whenever I saw her. I admit, it sort’ve gave me the creeps, when she changed to that. I’d gotten used to the flippant attitude and glares from her. But whenever she saw me.. she would smile and her tone had gentled. She wasdare I believe it…sweet?
I had assumed at the time that she intended to pull me into her prank war with her twin brothers. But I found out later that hadn’t been it, either. After I heard what she had done to Liberty and Fate, I felt glad to not be them. So it proved she was still agirl that could show youwhat for, as Jarret always said about her. He said one time what did we all expect when she had been raised with four brothers and at least twenty more that were MC brothers? She showed how tough she was and she stood tall as a Walker.
Then finally, when she turned 18, she came up to me and said as bold as you please, “I’m old enough now. Let’s go on a date.”
I remember now that all I could do at the time was blink at her. While I shouldn’t have been surprised by her bold candor, I was still stunned as I tried to laugh it off. She had to be joking, right? Well, she hadn’t been amused. I knew she was serious but I had to tell her that I didn't want to upset her father or brothers by dating her. This made her mad as hell. But damn, she was just out of high school and I felt like she was still too young. Luckily for me, I had to return to school.
I was just 21 years old. I did try to date a couple of girls in school, but they weren’t Glory. I really tried to wipe out her image in my head by taking a few very pretty women out. The problem with that hasty plan had been the fact that everyone paled in comparison to her. They didn’t sparkle, and they didn’t have her firebrand nature.
I would come back home and look for her. She would always be there. I had taken an awful chance that she would lose that crush. I now know that had she gotten with another guy I would have been heartbroken. But I had a long way to go to become an MD. At least, a couple more years until I could come back and stay. I also hadn’t been honest with her or anyone else about my background. I came from a Mafia world. I wasn’t sure if tangling them up with my family would be good for anyone.
Now as she smiled at me, I felt my whole body tighten up. She was a full grown woman and not a child. The kiss we sharedearlier seemed like forever ago. I wanted her. She had been offering me happiness for quite a few years and now I felt ready to accept that we were meant to be together.
I wrapped my arms around her and smothered her mouth with mine. I needed this woman. Yes, she had been the pursuer, but not anymore. I now went after her.
The kiss went on and on. The heat built between us as my hands roamed over her. The flavor of her mouth was making me crazy. Her curves were spectacular. I’d noted this before but now I want to feel every inch of her with both hands.
We kept kissing as her hands lowered to and she passed her fingers over my back. Then she lowered them, grabbed my ass cheeks with both hands and squeezed.
Well damn, I’d never had a woman do that to me. I raised my head and broke the breathless kiss to grin at her. “Damn.”
She laughed as she tried to catch her breath. “Y-you have the b-best ass and… I needed to do that.”
I chuckled as I held her cheeks and passed my thumbs over her just kissed lips. “Ok, but no worries I will be returning the favor.”
“Dang it, Legend. The way you kiss? I get weak in the knees.”
I chuckled a little. “One day soon when I get you where you need to be, you will be passing out then.”
“Promises, promises,” she teased. “But I’m glad you finally got smart.”
I cocked my head at her. “Oh, yeah?”
“Yeah. I have been waiting forever!”
“Glory, you were too young. I mean what if it had been just a teen crush? I wouldn’t take advantage of that. Then I felt you were too young.”
She tisked and rolled her eyes at me. “You are just 3 years older than I am!”
I shrugged. “Then maybe I was too young then?”
Again, she laughed. “Yeah maybe. You would actually blush whenever I wore that red dress, remember?”
Very true and what she did not know was I got hard as nails too. That had been right before she was taken by Deacon. The dress should be outlawed, period. It showed every curve and had a dipping cleavage. In fact, it needed to be hidden in a closet somewhere, so she could never wear it again, except in private…with me. “Yeah, I remember. That had been cruel.”
“Really?” Glory asked as she kept smiling at me. “No. Not cruel…You deserved it.”
“Yeah, maybe I did.” I grinned at her. “But you need to promise not to wear that dress again.”
Raising her brows, she asked, “Why?”
