Minutes later, she was finally standing in front of Ryder’s door. She sat her things down, fluffed her hair in a mirror in the hallway, and pulled out the cherry Chapstick from her purse and slicked on a fresh coat.
She thought about knocking and letting him come to her, but she decided just to surprise him since she had a key. She slipped the key in the lock and twisted it, and the door swung open. She kicked her shoes off so they wouldn’t make a sound on the spotless, shiny concrete floors, and she tiptoed town the hall towards his bedroom.
It was half past ten o’clock and the condo was pitch black. She was sure she’d find him in bed sleeping. She quietly opened his bedroom door and saw the light forming around his bathroom door. She heard the faint sound of the shower running and realized he was taking a shower.
Perfect, she thought to herself as she decided to climb under the covers and wait for him. It seemed a little creepy, but she was too excited to think straight.
She sauntered over to his bed. The room was dark, but with the glow of light flooding from around the bathroom door, she couldn’t see just enough. She stripped down and climbed under the covers, flicking on the bedside lamp beside her.
Her heart pounded as she waited for him to come out of the bathroom. Each second that went by felt like eternity.
The water from the shower shut off and Ryder emerged two seconds later with a towel wrapped around his waist. He stopped dead in his tracks the moment he saw her sitting in his bed.
“Stormy!” he yelled out as he ran over to her. “Is this real? Are you really here?”
His leaned down and pressed his mouth against hers, hard, and she ran her fingers through his still damp hair.
“I’m here, baby,” she said with a smile while she kissed him back. “I came back for you.”
He dropped his towel and climbed into bed next to her, his hands gripping her bare hips and pulling her body closer into his. He kissed her neck and then worked his way down to her collarbone as his hands traced down her soft arms.
She tossed her head back and he climbed on top of her, dominating her like he did the last time. She loved his alpha male bedside manner.
“I’m never letting you go,” he said. His smooth body pressed against hers, and in that moment they were one.
“I’ll never leave you again,” she replied, breathless, hot, and bothered. She loved his hands and how they travelled up and down her body. She ached for him. It had been too long, and she couldn’t ignore her feelings anymore. She had to do whatever it took to be with him, even if it meant staying in the MC life for a bit longer. She had to trust him to keep her safe, and she had to believe him when he said he would leave the club as soon as he could.
He was soon lying on top of her, his face buried in her mess of dark curls, and his arms spreading her legs wide. He pressed his hardened cock deep inside her, ramming her hard and passionately. He was hungry for her. He wanted to be inside her. He wanted to take her and keep her all for his own.
“You’re mine forever,” he said. “I love you, Stormy.”
“I know,” she replied as her nails dug deep into his arms. She leaned up and nibbled on his ear as he thrusted away. “I love you too.”
He continued making love to her the rest of the night. He didn’t want to stop. She didn’t want it to end either. She resolved once and for all that her heart belonged to Ryder Jacks, and there wasn’t a damn thing she could do about it.
