“You’re okay with that? Because we don’t operate inside the law, Ro. Sometimes vindication can only be achieved by breaking a few laws to reach the bad guys and ensure they don’t harm anyone else.”
“I understand that, Mammoth. I do. You take care of them.”
I was fully aware that I just condoned and agreed to violence, but that was all men like Dag and Killer knew. They didn’t care about doing the right thing. I learned that firsthand. My best friend died. They were monsters and had to be put down like the rabid dogs they were.
“Promise me you’ll stay here at The Crossroads. I need to know that you and Jakey are safe.”
“What if he shows me a picture?”
He frowned. “I didn’t consider that, but I’m asking you not to place yourself in harm’s way. Keep the two most precious souls in my life where I know they’ll be protected.”
“I can do that.”
Relied flittered across his features. “That only leaves one more thing.”
“Oh?”
“I need to make you mine, Rowen. Now. In this room. I need to feel you come on my cock and hear your sweet lips agree to be my ol’ lady. I want fucking forever with you and your son because that’s how I feel. You’re my family.”
He said that at my house too. I’d been so out of it, so fucking scared, but I didn’t forget.
“You’ve become our rock, Waylen. You already belong to us, too.”
“Thank fuck.”
“So when I tell you to fuck me right now, I really need you to do it.”
His eyes darkened.
“Give me all of you, Waylen Riggs, and I promise you’ll have my whole heart in return.”
He pushed up on one arm and tapped his heart with the other. “You’re right here. I’m gonna ink your name over my heart as soon as I get the chance because you and I are it—the real deal. You need to know that’s a first for me. I’ve never wanted this with anyone else.”
“Babe?”
“Yeah, Gorgeous?”
“Shut up and kiss me.”
He laughed before his head lowered, and his mouth fused to mine. His tongue slid through the seam of my lips and tangled with mine as his hands began an urgent exploration of my body. I had way too many clothes on for this.
Mammoth leaned back, and I realized he was mostly undressed. No shirt. Only gray sweats.
My hands rose to his chest and traced the dark ink, tracing the skulls and the giant reaper standing on a pile of skulls. Behind him, a mammoth looked ready to leap from his skin as it charged forward. Long, curved tusks, dark fur, and powerful legs were tattooed on his skin like a warning.
“You said I would learn about your road name. It’s not your cock, is it?”
He smirked. “I guarantee I won’t disappoint.”
I knew that. I’d seen his erection straining against his zipper more than once. “I’m not worried about that.”
“Good.” He kissed me, pointing to his chest. “You see that prehistoric mammal? That’s what I become when I need to protect my club and my family. A fucking wild, massive beast who will tear apart anyone who threatens the ones he loves.”
“So, it’s your sizeandyour protective instinct.”
He nodded.
“And your cock,” I clarified.
