Not that I didn’t totally agree with him one hundred percent, but there seemed to be a little more animosity toward O’Ryan than I would’ve expected out of someone that didn’t have a close personal connection like I did to Cannel.

“Is there something I’m missing?” I asked curiously.

Easton continued. “After Cannel was rescued, it was found that he’d had a girl before her. One that he got rid of when he got Cannel. That girl was someone I used to know.”

I growled under my breath, causing Cannel to raise her brows at me in curiosity.

“I’ll get back to you by the morning.” I hesitated. “But just go ahead and assume that you have a spot. They’re not going to say no. I can guarantee that.”

When I hung up, Cannel didn’t waste time asking what was up.

“Tell me what’s going on?” she asked softly.

The softness in her voice, paired with the way her eyes were heavy with sleep, had my cock stiffening slightly.

“Easton wants to enter into a motorcycle club,” he paused. “And I think he probably has a few cards up his sleeves that’s going to make O’Ryan a bit closer than you’ll be comfortable with.”

Her eyes widened, and a look of fear crossed over her face before I visibly watched her gather her panic and stuff it into a tight ball.

I held out my hand to her, wondering if I should pull her into my arms, or wait for her to come on her own.

She answered my question for me by all but falling into my open arms and saying, “I think it’d be mighty hilarious if my brothers had him close.”

Secretly, I did, too.

“If O’Ryan comes here, I can guarantee you, he won’t get within a half a block of you. Me, or your brothers, or some of my friends from the PD, will make sure that you’re safe at all times,” I guaranteed.

She sighed. “If he makes it that long.”

I squeezed her. “You think Beau will do something about him?”

That’d been my initial thought when we’d learned that he knew what was happening with O’Ryan and him going into witness protection.

However, I would’ve thought if he was going to, Beau would’ve already taken care of him.

“Might be better to block Beau’s access. That way O’Ryan testifies, and my brothers get to have fun,” she teased.

“Not me?” I asked curiously.

She shook her head, her lips brushing against my pectoral muscles.

“No,” she said. “Because that means that he’ll have to get close to you, and I just can’t handle that.”

“You like me, don’t you?” I teased.

She tilted her head way back on her neck so she could see my face without pulling out of my arms before saying, “Like isn’t a strong enough word for what I feel for you, Detective Schultz.”

My lips twitched right before I dropped them down onto hers.

She breathed a sigh of relief the moment that they touched, and I knew without a doubt that she loved me.

Which was a good thing because I loved her.

I skimmed my hands down the length of her back, stopping when the tips of my fingers brushed her ass.

Pulling her in close, I said, “How attached to these panties are you?”

Her eyelashes fluttered as she said, “What panties?”

And that, my friends, is how to go from zero to sixty in about half a second.

One moment, I was being the perfect gentleman that I had to be around her and not scare her, and the next I was checking for myself that she wasn’t, indeed, wearing any underwear.

She hadn’t been lying.

She wasn’t wearing any.

Even worse, she wanted me enough that the insides of her thighs were coated in her wetness.

I growled and bent almost in half, then pulled her up and over my shoulder as I walked us to the bedroom.

“Will!” She squealed in laughter. “I’m too heavy! Put me down.”

She wasn’t heavy in the least.

In fact, she felt like a feather as I tossed her onto the bed.

“Honey,” I teased. “I lift. You’re not heavy at all.”

She snorted. “You lift, but you don’t lift me.”

“I lift more than you,” I said as I started to strip my clothes off.

Her eyes went heated as she watched me move, her white, straight teeth coming out to bite her top lip.

I watched in fascination as her breathing increased and that telltale flush started to rise up the length of her chest, indicating that she was aroused and excited.

I started on my pants, and her eyes trailed down the length of my body, halting comically when I pulled my buttons apart and revealed my naked state.

“You didn’t wear any underwear today?” she asked curiously.

I shrugged. “I didn’t have any clean. I need to do laundry.”

She grinned. “Well, you’ll be happy to know that you have some clean now. I spent some time running almost all of the loads that you had in your laundry room. I was bored.”
