“I know.It’s just weird.”She served up their breakfast, moving to sit beside him.The shirtshe wore was tight around her breasts, showcasing the fullmounds.
One day he’d have her naked at his tablewhile they ate.
“We’ve got to make the mostof our situation.”Picking up his knife and fork he dived into theeggs and bacon.
“Killer, I don’t regret ussharing a house.What I hate is knowing it’ll come to an end,” shesaid, smiling sadly at him.
Grabbing her hand, he stared into hereyes.“When all this is over we’ll find a placetogether.”
“When all this is over Iwon’t have the money.”
“You’re a dental nurse, Kels, andbelieve it or not, I’ve got quite a bit put by for a rainyday.”
She chuckled, and he loved thesound.
Theyate their breakfast in silence.Killer placed his cell phone on the table in case of any incomingcalls.He wasn’t in a rush to end their time together, but hewanted Michael out of their life.
“What do you think weshould do today?”she asked, standing up.
“I’ll help you with the dishes.”He dried all the dishes loving the domestic feeling of being stoodby her in their home.
Not our home.
The moment the danger was all over,he’d be investing in their own place.
“We’re going out.I’m going toget myself acquainted with the new boss, and we’re going to be seenaround town.”
“Where is your leathercut?”she asked.
“Keeping a low profile,baby.No cut and no mention of The Skulls.We’re a married coupletrying to make a life for each other.”
She finished washing the sides down ashe went back to grab the bag Sandy packed for him.Sitting at thetable he changed her dressings checking over her marks beforecovering them back up.
“Thank you,” shesaid.
“No need to thank me.Comeon, let’s get out of here.”
Together they left the house, climbinginto the car to head back into town.He found an available parkingspace in the parking lot around the back of the small shoppingmall.
He tookher hand, and they headed outtogether.He nodded at people they passed.Wearing a long shirtcovered up his tats.For the first time since he joined The Lions,he was finally a civilian.Women still gazed his way.A few menstared at Kelsey, but she clung to his side like a lifeline.Compared to the women she looked pale.She’d not gotten out allthat much to get some sun.
With them beingalone away from thedanger he’d make sure she spent a great deal of time in the gardengetting a tan.
“Do you think we’ll fitin?”she asked.
“We’re already fitting in.”Crossing the main road he headed toward the mechanic shop whereMason stood waiting.
“Hey, man.I didn’t thinkyou’d make it in today.”
“Wanted to come and meetthe man I’m working for,” he said.
The shop had two cars already in placeto be worked on underneath.
“Jason is in his office.Becareful.He’s not in a good mood, but then, he’s rarely in a goodmood,” Mason said.
Leaving Kelsey with the other man he madehis way toward the back.Knocking on the partially open door Killerwaited for permission to enter the room.
“What?”The harsh voice calledthrough.
