I jumped when she dropped her fork onto her plate then pounded the table with her fist. “Lillian Michelle Moore! Raymond is handsome and rich! Oh, I get it. You think feelings matter when catching a good man. No, it has everything to do with marrying a good man like Ray before some fat, frumpy, and stupid little bitch snatches him up!”
Images from my childhood flashed in my mind—the hard slap across my face from my mother when I was ten, because I ripped the hem of my dress while playing with a girl in my neighborhood.
I took a deep breath and looked down at my food that I couldn’t eat anymore. “Yes, Mother. I’m sorry. I’ll give Ray a call tonight.”
“Good,” she said. “Say you’re sorry. Hopefully, he’ll accept your apology and take you back.”
After we ate our lunch and finished the wine, I paid the tab, as always. I gave my mother a hug and while I was driving home, I rolled my window down to feel the breeze. I wondered then what it felt like to ride on a motorcycle and knew it probably felt ten times better than just riding in a car with the window rolled down.
CHAPTER 5WEZ
The forecast said it was supposed to be a nice sunny day, which meant a good day for a ride to the mountains out west. Plus, Seth needed more miles to ride for experience since he was still prospecting. My Chaos brothers, along with the women of the Coven, met at the clubhouse early that morning, so kickstands were up at ten a.m. for a long ride up to the mountains. I was one of the last to role in, so I parked my bike next to the others and noticed Lillian’s Lexus. I climbed off my bike, made my way into the clubhouse and spotted Lillian right away.
I gave out hugs to the Coven women—Tanya, Sam, Fiona, and Madge, the prez’s old lady. I looked over to the bar where my brothers all stood, along with Kat and Magnet. And Lillian. Only this time, she wasn’t wearing something professional like a dress or a suit. She wore a pair of jeans, a tight white top and a pair of heels. She stood by the bar chatting it up with Kat while Magnet had his arm draped over her shoulders.
Lillian’s back was turned to me and I arched a brow at Kat.
What the fuck was Lillian doing here?
Kat beamed a smile and waved me over. I growled under my breath and approached them.
Lillian turned, watching me walk toward her. She even smiled.
Why the fuck was Lillian smiling?
I reached for Kat, giving her a hug, and threw a jab at Magnet’s shoulder.
I finally turned to Lillian. “What are you doing here?”
Her smile left and she tilted her chin.
“I invited Lillian.” Kat answered my question.
Lillian turned and started marching out of the clubhouse. I caught up to her, blocking her path. “Come on, I’m sorry.”
Her brows shot up. “Oh! The big, mean Chaos King said the ‘s’ word?”
Lillian folded her arms and stuck out that hip. Damn, did she look sexy as fuck in tight jeans with those pretty eyes of hers set ablaze. All I wanted to do was get my hands in those jeans and play with her pussy.
“I’m not afraid to apologize, Lillian. I figure I owe you one this time. You look different today.”
“Different?” she asked, looking down at herself.
“Yeah, you smiled. And you’re casually dressed. You look good—really good.”
She brought that smile back. “Thanks. I should dress in jeans more often then, I guess.”
I was still curious as to why she came to the clubhouse.
“So, Kat invited you here today. Are you riding with one of my Chaos brothers?”
An image flashed in my mind of Lillian riding on the back of a brother’s bike. I didn’t like it.
“Well, yes. I asked Kat what it felt like to ride on a motorcycle, and she invited me here today.” She relaxed and looked around. “I don’t know any single men in your club—except you.”
“Then you can ride with me.” I looked down at her shoes. “But you can’t ride in those heels. They’re too dangerous.”
“I wear the same size as Kat and she brought me an extra pair of her riding boots. Oh, and she has an extra helmet I can wear. I left them in my car. I’ll go put them on.”
I walked back over to Kat and Magnet while Lillian went to put on the boots.
Magnet had a smug look on his face. I guess he saw this as payback for that time I rode Kat up to the clubhouse on my bike.
But Kat looked pissed and she arched a brow. “What is up with the two of you anyway, Wez?”
I rubbed both hands down my face. “We just rub each other the wrong way, I guess. I don’t fuckin’ know,” I grumbled.
***
I climbed on my bike and was impressed at how easily Lillian climbed on behind me. I caught the scent of her perfume and it drove me fucking nuts. The Chaos Kings kicked their stands up and rolled out of the clubhouse lot. Lillian was a natural at riding. When she wrapped her arms around my waist, my dick jumped in my jeans. Why was my dick getting hard? I fucked Lillian’s mother, for fuck’s sake!
Lillian was quiet during the whole ride up to the mountains. She didn’t say one damn word. We rode for a good two hours and stopped a few times to stretch our legs and so the women could take pictures with their phones at scenic stops on the side of the main road. I stood with my brothers and lit a smoke, watching Lillian chirp away with the other women in the Coven. She seemed to fit in okay with the rest of them.
My Prez Rocky came up from behind and socked me
