“That just proves how little you know her. That life would drive her insane in a fucking heartbeat.”
His glare intensified but I didn’t back down. I took him down once before, I could do it again. He was bigger now, but then so was I. And when it came to Flick, I wasn’t gonna let anything get in my way.
“Hurt her, I’ll come after you.”
Then before I could say a word in response, he shoved past me and left.
“Okay, then. That was nice and dramatic. Now, come get your girl and get out of here before something else fucking happens. I’m over the drama today.”
I didn’t need to be told twice. A second later I was rushing into the room. A lump formed in my throat at the sight of my Flick sitting there beaten to hell, but smiling up at me.
“Hear you had an interesting morning.”
“Yeah, you could say that. How about you?”
I strode over to her and pulled her up off the bed and against me. Wrapping my arms around her, I palmed the back of her head to cradle it against my shoulder. Having her warm body pressed against mine finally allowed me to let go of my fear for her.
“Fuck, Flick. You’ve taken ten years off my life today.”
She shuddered against me when I pressed a kiss to the top of her head, avoiding the wound on the back.
“Let’s get home. You right to ride? Because Scout offered to tie you to me if you can’t hang on.”
That got a chuckle out of her. “I’m sure he did, but I can hang on. How far away are we?”
“We’re up in Cutler, about a four hour ride home.”
“Damn. That’s one hell of a ride.”
“We’ll stop a few times. You’ll be fine, but Scout wants to get back home tonight. We brought most of the club with us to come get you.”
She rubbed her face against my shirt. “Really? Why?”
Cupping her face, I tilted it up so I could hold her gaze. “You’re my old lady, my property. That makes you club property, we protect what’s ours.”
Her eyes filled with moisture but she blinked it away. “Is that why you asked me? To give me protection?”
I shook my head. “I asked you because I like fucking you on the regular.”
Then, I kissed her before she could say something else. I didn’t want her thinking so much about my reasons for making her mine. So long as she still wanted to be my old lady after everything that had happened today, things were good.
“C’mon, you two. We don’t have time for you to have your reunion fuck here and now.”
“Damn, Scout, you’re such a giver.”
“Yeah, well, with Taz you gotta be, or we’d be watching our very own live porn show for the next hour or so. Damn man has stamina, that’s for sure.”
Listening to Scout and Viper talk about me like I wasn’t standing right here was pissing me off. “You two done?”
Scout grinned. “If you are.”
With a shake of my head, I turned back to Flick. “You all right to walk or do you want me to carry you down?”
“I want to walk.”
“No attacking anyone on your way out, you hear me?”
With a smirk, she nodded to Viper, then I took her hand and led her out of the room and down the hallway. If I wasn’t so on edge over her injuries, I’d laugh at the way all the men tried their best to get out of our way while watching Flick with caution. In short order we were all back on our bikes, and with Flick’s arms wrapped around me, we took off. For some reason, I was still on edge but I couldn’t put my finger on why. The fact Scout had been fucking strange around Flick didn’t help ease my thoughts.
No matter how late it was when we got home, I knew it wouldn’t be the end of the day for us.
