“
You're
hiding too, Shay. Your room confirms that.
”
“
My
business isn
’
t yours,
”
Shay said.
“
I
’
m
going to take a shower. The room is yours for right now. Sit. Think. Figure
something out.
”
Shay walked to the bathroom and
shut the door. The water turned on a few seconds later and Ava slowly moved to
the bed and sat down. She dropped her bag between her legs. She was safer here
than in the clubhouse. She was safer with Back Down Devil than with the Lost
Men. And she was safer with Shay than Trev. That much she knew.
When Ava looked to the bathroom
door, she realized two things.
First, she could use a shower.
Second, she was told that she
needed to earn her keep
…
Ava stood and stripped. She left a
neat pile of clothes on the bed. She reached back and unsnapped her bra, adding
that to the pile. When she wiggled out of her panties, her mouth suddenly ran
dry. She was already turned on just imagining what it would be like to touch
Shay
’
s body.
She walked to the bathroom and was
relieved to find the door unlocked. She stepped into the warm, foggy bathroom.
The rush of steam and heat made her shiver, just enough to make her nipples
harden and ache.
Ava couldn
’
t see through the black shower curtain, but Shay
was in there. Slowly, she approached the shower, biting her bottom lip. She
pulled the curtain open from the right, which turned out to be the back of the
shower. Peeking inside, she saw the backside of Shay.
A single tattoo stretched from the
top of his spine to about halfway down his muscular back. It looked like some
kind of vine. The rest was just bare skin. Beautiful, bare skin. His ass was
firm and his legs were muscular and sexy.
Ava stepped into the shower and
pulled the curtain shut.
Shay just stood there, the water
beating against the front of his body. He didn
’
t
acknowledge Ava and as much as she wanted to say something, this turned her on
even more. It wasn
’
t the
idea of being sneaky or even being ignored, it was just the silence that did
it. She was already wet and she wanted to touch Shay. The less talking, the
less chance of having to share something about herself.
With just a few more steps, Ava was
close enough to Shay to feel the mist of water bouncing off his body. She got
even closer, allowing her breasts to touch his back. Her erect nipples were
tender and she bent her knees as a wave of pleasure ran through her body. Her
left hand touched Shay
’
s
side and then slid around, moving down his strong abs. She felt a small thatch
of hair and then her hand wrapped around a thick, hard cock.
Gently, Ava stroked up and back
just once. She let out a sigh and put her right hand out, bracing herself on
the sweaty tile. She started to move faster as her hand was desperate to hold
all of Shay
’
s thickness.
She put her lips to Shay
’
s
back and let out another sigh. The water allowed her hand to move with ease.
Shay
’
s body started to
move. He was trying to thrust at her hand. Each time he moved back and bumped
into her stomach, it sent waves of heat through Ava
’
s body.
Faster and faster, Ava felt Shay
’
s body getting tighter. He let
out a groan and sigh, making Ava want it more. She ran her lips and tongue
along his back, groaning, wanting him to come. She whispered his name and tried
to nibble at him, but he was all muscle.
“
Keep
going,
”
Shay finally said.
“
Faster.
”
Ava did as she was told. She moved
as fast as she could.
“
Grip
tighter,
”
Shay ordered.
“
Don
’
t let up, love.
”
Ava bit her lip as her hand and
wrist grew sore. She put her cheek to Shay
’
s
back and started to breathe heavily. She could feel Shay thickening even more
in her hand. When he finally let out a hiss and started to come, Ava
’
s mouth fell open and she lost
her breath for a moment. Her hand continued to move fast up and down as his
warm release spilled into her hand.
She slowed down before letting Shay
go. Ava glanced at her hand to see the evidence of what she had just done.
Shay put his head back and let out
a few breaths. He let the water rush upon him and then opened the shower
curtain and left.
“
It
’
s all yours,
”
Shay said from outside the
shower.
“
Thanks,
”
Ava said.
“
And
I didn
’
t mean just the
shower. Goes for my bed tonight, too. I
’
ll
keep you safe for tonight.
”
That was all the conversation
needed.
Ava had apparently earned her keep.
seven.
Shay dried off and dressed himself.
He then stood and looked at himself in the mirror. Tomorrow they would have a
big table meeting to decide on the protection ride for Jakey. Then they would
need to take care of Eight Under. And if all went well, Shay would be able to
track down his brother and take him out for good. If he told the truth to the
MC, Miller might pull him off it. Or keep him in the background.
And that just couldn
’
t happen.
Shay needed to kill his brother. He
wanted to watch Caius die for all the horrible things he
’
d done to the world. Closing his eyes, Shay calmed
himself the best he could before grabbing a bottle of whiskey. He opened it and
chugged as much as his mouth and stomach could take. It burned and made him
sick. Then he heard the shower turn off and he noticed Ava
’
s clothes were on the bed and
her bag was on the floor.
The bathroom door opened and Ava
stepped out, wearing nothing but a towel. Her dark hair looked even darker when
wet. Her eyes were so blue. It was insane how beautiful Ava was.
“
What?
”
Ava asked.
“
You
need to get dressed,
”
Shay
said with a grin.
“
I
assume you won
’
t give me a
minute to myself?
”
“
Just
gave you a shower to yourself,
”
Shay said. He took the bottle of whiskey and plopped down on his bed and sipped
from the whiskey bottle.
“
Take
your time, love. I
’
ve got
all night.
”
Ava grabbed her bag and put it on
the bed. She opened it and took out clothes. She grabbed a pair of black, silky
panties and held them up with one finger, smiling at Shay. He could feel
himself getting hard again already. Ava turned and opened the towel, letting it
fall. Shay looked at her smooth back and round ass. He sat up a little and when
Ava looked over her shoulder, wet hair dangling in front of her face, she was
like a dream come true.
Ava seductively bent over and
stepped into her panties. She put them on and reached back to the bed for her
bra. But Shay used his foot to flip the bra out of Ava
’
s reach.
“
Turn
around, love,
”
Shay said.
Ava
’
s
cheeks blushed. She took a breath and turned with her hands at her sides.
“
Holy
fuck,
”
he whispered.
Ava
’
s
breasts were perfect. Small with perky, rosy nipples. Much less than a handful
for Shay, but they fit her small frame perfectly.
Shay reached forward and grabbed
Ava
’
s bra. He tossed it to
the floor and nodded.
“
Just
put a shirt on,
”
Shay said.
“
And get in bed with me.
”
Ava nodded and grabbed a t-shirt.
As she put it on, Shay
’
s
eyes moved up and down her stomach, subtle curves, and breasts. He wanted every
inch of her body.
“
Drink?
”
Shay asked.
Ava climbed the bed, staying on her
knees. She grabbed the bottle and took a long sip.
“
Thanks.
”
Shay took the bottle back and with
one more drink, he put it on the table. He reached for the light and turned it
off. The room was mostly dark, but Shay could see Ava
’
s shadow. She came forward and climbed under the
covers. She smelled amazing and her hair was still wet. Gently, Shay put his
arm around Ava and pulled her close to him.
“
They
were talking about a war when they were talking about coming here to
help," Ava said.
“
That's
right.
”
“
What
is it about?
”
“
Life.
Death. The usual.
”
Shay
took a breath.
“
I was
supposed to be killed.
”
“
What?
”
“
Some
assholes put a bomb in my car, except I wasn
’
t
in the car when it went off. One of our brothers was though. Erik. He
’
s the one with the scars on his
face from it."
“
Wow.
”
“
Yeah.
And it
’
s only gotten worse.
More death. More bombings. A friend of the MC has been kidnapped. Now we have a
rival teaming up with the guy that wants me dead.
”
“
Do
you know who it is?
”
Ava
asked.
Shay looked down at Ava. He didn
’
t want to lie to her, but that
didn
’
t meant he would have
to tell her truth. Instead of talking again, Shay pulled at Ava
’
s shirt. He lifted it and
touched the top of her panties. He slipped his hand into the back of them and
followed her ass down and around. Ava moaned and slid closer to Shay. The tips
of his fingers touched her, but he kept going until he found her wet and tender
center. With two fingers, Shay started to make circles. She clawed at his pants
and bit at his shirt.
“
Damn,
”
she whispered.
“
Damn,
”
Shay said.
“
I
’
m
barely touching you, love.
”
“
It's
been
…
a while
…”
That comment caught Shay off guard.
How could it have been that long? If she had been an old lady, she would have
been getting it at least once a day. Then again, one of the Lost Men would
probably want it four or five times a day.
But Ava was tight. Really tight.
Shay pressed two fingers into her
wetness. He twisted his fingers and pulled them back out. Ava thrust back,
groaning, wanting more. So Shay pressed his fingers into her harder. Using
muscle, he pulled, almost bringing Ava on top of him. He thrust his fingers
faster and faster.
Ava buried her face in his neck,
moaning and whimpering. She thrust hard at his fingers. So hard that at one
point Shay stopped moving his fingers and let Ava fuck them all by herself. It
was so hot.
Finally, Ava came down and froze
there, biting at his neck, whining as she started to come. Shay started to move
his fingers again, guiding Ava through her orgasm. Judging by the throbbing of
her pussy and the intensity of her orgasm, there was absolutely no way she had
been fucked or touched in at least months.
When Shay took his fingers from
Ava, he ran them up her ass, spreading her wetness along her body. He opened
his hand to the small of her back and kept her close.
“
Been
a while,
”
Shay said,
laughing.
“
Sorry
…
next time
…”
“
It
’
s all good, love. Close your
eyes.
”
Shay knew for sure this woman was
not meant to be with the Lost Men. She had not been tapped like an old lady
would have been. He started to get very angry at the thought that the clubhouse
may be dealing with another situation. Erik's old lady, Kaity, turned out not
to be an actual rat, but Shay was in no position to trust an outsider. He had
secrets that could get him killed, and he wasn't about to let a piece of ass be
the reason he dies.
Soon, Ava was peacefully asleep.
Shay rolled her to the other side of the bed and he sat there, staring into the
darkness.
Their grandfather was the first
person Caius ever killed. Not that he deserved to live, but the kill was
horrible to witness. Caius had arranged it for him and Shay to pull off the
murder so they could earn respect from a crew their grandfather had been
indebted with. The kill gave Cauis and Shay protection, but the cost
…
The next time Shay opened his eyes,
it was morning. He looked around the bedroom and stretched his neck. It hurt
like hell from falling asleep sitting up. When he moved his hand, he bumped
something. Better yet, he bumped someone. He looked over and saw Ava sleeping.
She was on her back, her hair spread across the pillow. Shay turned slightly
and stared down at Ava. She definitely didn
’
t
belong here, but she couldn
’
t
leave now.
He touched her face, stroking her
soft cheek. Staring at Ava right then, Shay understood what Gaige, Landon, and
Erik got out of choosing just one woman. This tender moment was all he could
focus on while the war was raging outside.
Shay followed Ava
’
s face down to her neck and then
to her t-shirt. When he touched her arm, she stirred and opened her eyes. For a
split second she looked like she was going to take a swing at Shay. But she
suddenly remembered where she was.
“
You
okay?
”
Shay asked.
“
Yeah.
Sorry. Just
…
I
’
m good.
”
“
It
’
s just me,
”
Shay said.
“
I
see that.
”
“
I
have to go to a meeting soon. You want something to eat before I go?
”
“
Yeah.
I could eat.
”
Shay rolled to the other side of
the bed and reached to the floor. He grabbed Ava
’
s
bra and threw it up on the bed.
“
You
can put that on now,
”
he
said.
“
Are
you sure?
”
Ava teased.
“
Oh,
I
’
m sure. If you want to go
out there with a bunch of horny bikers looking like that, that
’
s your call. I can only protect
you so much.
”
Shay climbed out of bed and
stretched again. He walked to the dresser and put his leather cut on before
holstering his guns and knives. He turned just in time to watch Ava putting her
bra on. The t-shirt was on the bed, and her perfect breasts were on display.
Ava snapped the bra from behind but Shay stopped her before she could cover
herself.
“
I
have to,
”
Shay whispered.
He cupped Ava
’
s breasts with his hands and
stood there. His thumbs grazed her small nipples and they quickly became hard.
“
Fucking
hell, love,
”
Shay said.
Ava
’
s
cheeks were burning red.
Shay let her breasts go and Ava
finished getting dressed. He took her out to the clubhouse where the prospects
were making breakfast. When Shay spotted Jon, he called him to the bar.
“
You
made it back,
”
he said.
“
Without
a problem,
”
Jon said.
“
You
got something to eat for me?
”
“
Of
course.
”
“
For
her?
”
Shay asked as he
nodded to Ava.
“
Yes.
”
“
You
think she
’
s pretty?
”
Jon stiffened.
“
Yeah, I do.
”
“
You
want to fuck her?
”
Ava gasped.
Jon looked at Ava, then down at the
ground.
“
I, uh, well
…”
“
Something
wrong with her?
”
Shay
asked.
“
No.
She
’
s beautiful.
”
“
So
you
’
d fuck her?
”
“
Yeah,
”
Jon admitted.
“
I would.
”
Shay reached out and patted Jon on
the shoulder.
“
Good man
then. Keep working hard around here and maybe you
’
ll
get a real patch someday. Then you could fuck anything you want. Except what I
’
m enjoying.
”
Jon walked away.
Shay looked at Ava and she looked
pissed.
“
What?
”
Shay asked.
“
Is
that what I am? Something you
’
re
enjoying
right now?
”
“
What
do you think?
”
Shay asked.
“
You came into my shower and
jerked me off, love. I shoved my fingers up that pretty little pussy of yours
and you enjoyed it.
”
Shay
leaned close to Ava.
“
And that
pussy hasn
’
t been touched
in a long time. Which means you weren
’
t
some old lady. Right or wrong?
”
Shay smirked and Ava
’
s face grew red again.
“
I don
’
t like you, Shay.
”
“
You
don
’
t have to like me. You
just have to continue to earn your keep. I
’
ll
protect you, but eventually you
’
re
going to have to tell me the truth. I
’
m
not an idiot, Ava. You were never an old lady. You've probably never even been
around a club before, have you?
”
