What?" Judd growled and I had to admit Tawny was right about him sounding like a dog when he did that. Turning around, I noticed two of Cooper's club guys standing behind us. "What's your deal, O'Keefe?" one guy asked while the other avoided Judd's hateful gaze. When no one responded, the big bald guy looked me up and down. "She's tiny. How does fucking even work?" Aaron shifted next to me, now looking as hostile as Judd. "Back off, Mac." "Just curious. I've never fucked a tiny chick." "You shouldn't talk about a man's girl that way especially when she's carrying his kid," Cooper warned, clearly wanting to jump in, but holding back so not to emasculate Aaron. Farah said guys in the club were testing Cooper lately because they sensed weakness in his leadership. I couldn't imagine anyone looking at Cooper without fearing his wrath. Even if they didn't fear Cooper, they ought to fear his enforcers. After all, Judd was glaring at Mac like waiting for any reason to attack. Sensing a back story to this pissing match, I knew Mac was about to say something nasty even before he opened his mouth. "I hear chicks get big tits when they're knocked up. Certainly can't hurt with this one." Why Mac was starting shit didn't matter. Aaron threw the punch and the bar immediately exploded into violence. Judd was waiting for a reason to attack while Cooper and Vaughn were always up for a fight. Aaron hit Mac again as the bigger guy stumbled back. I thought of grabbing a chair and helping my man, but Tawny pulled me away. Soon, we were hiding under a table where Farah crouched with wide eyes. "Aaron needs to stake his claim and protect his woman," Tawny said, cuddled next to Farah. "If you help him, it's like you're cutting off his balls and tossing them in your purse. Immature or not, these guys need to be men or they get insecure. Can't have that. book-quotejudd-and-tawnyfarahcooperSoup's here," Judd finally said after we watched each other for a few minutes. As I sipped the broth, Judd pretended to ignore me. I knew he wasn't really watching television. His face was too perfectly stoic like he was working hard to make himself seem cold. "Do you want the rest?" I asked. Judd frowned at me. "If I wanted soup, I'd have ordered myself some. I'm not a dog begging for scraps." Scowling at his ridiculous anger, I shrugged. "I don't want to waste the rest. Can we put it in the mini fridge and I'll eat it in the morning?" Judd's frown eased. "Fuck it. I'll eat it." "No, it's mine," I said, standing up. "I offered and you got grumpy. Now, you can't have it." "I'll just eat it after you go to sleep." "I respect your honesty," I said, setting the bowl into the little fridge next to the expensive treats. "It's a rare quality in a thief." Judd grinned. book-quotesoupthiefjudd-and-tawnyAaron lifted me up onto his hips and I knew we weren't staying. "We just got here," I murmured against his cheek. "Don't you think Judd and Coop will take their women home to celebrate?" Glancing around, I noticed Tawny high fiving Judd who looked pretty proud about his revenge on Mac. Nearby, Farah was squeezing Cooper's flexed muscles. None of them were planning to stay at the bar. "Are you okay, Bailey?" I asked as Aaron started for the door. "Sure, I'll just hang out and pretend Vaughn is charming. It'll be good practice for the next loser I date." A grinning Vaughn patted the spot next to him in a booth. As the blonds got comfy, Aaron carried me to the Harley and sat me on the seat. "You saved me from mean words," I teased as he felt me up in the spot Mac thought I needed help. "No one messes with my girl." "Mighty sperm and powerful fists. Plus, you can cook and paint and write poems and a million other qualities. I've hit pay dirt." "I need to get you home," he said and I sensed the ride would be uncomfortable for him. As I wrapped my arms around his waist, he started the Harley. "Raven bought headphones, so we can fuck really loud and she won't be bothered." "The best houseguest ever," Aaron said over his shoulder. As we sped away, I noticed Judd chasing a laughing Tawny to the parking lot. Cooper strutted out with Farah clinging to him. Everyone was happy except for a naked Mac tied to a tree in what I assumed was the club's version of a time out. book-quotecooper-and-farahjudd-and-tawnyvaughnDylan lifted my chin so my lips could meet his. I kissed him hard, suddenly overwhelmed with emotion I'd held tight inside me. "Good things happen," I said, crying now. "Sometimes I forget that even when I have a blessing right in front of me." Dylan wrapped me tighter in his arms and smiled against my lips. "Me too, but I never lost faith in little Lark. If anyone could kick death in the ass, it would be her." I laughed at the thought of Lark versus the Grim Reaper. When my laughter drew the attention of the others, they laughed too, even without knowing why. All the tension faded as our fears turned to celebration. "Shit, I'm gonna get teary-eyed," Vaughn announced, looking at his phone. We all received the same message from Raven with pictures of the babies. "Which one's the girl?" Judd asked, squinting at Tawny's phone. "The one with the pink hat," his wife said. Everyone laughed again. "You can't see if they have curly hair," Cooper muttered. "Man, I hope at least one of them does. I'm never letting Aaron live that shit down." More laughter as everyone enjoyed the additional photos Raven sent. book-quotejudd-and-tawnyvaughndylan-and-winnieThe chick last night marked you," he said, gesturing to my throat. "Might be a stalker. You'll want to prepare to wake up with your balls removed." "Raven might cut off my balls, but not because she's a stalker. More like she's just in a bad mood or gassy." Tawny looked at me then shook her head. "Oh, Vaughn. You're fucked." "Actually, I was and quite well. In fact, I think she bruised my hip bones." Laughing, Tawny cuddled against Judd. "When's the wedding?" Once Judd started laughing, I flipped them off and looked at my menu. "We're fuck buddies. Nothing more." Judd nodded. "Makes sense. A man of your stupidity couldn't handle a relationship. Best to keep your life simple." "She's hot. That's all I care about." "She is hot," Tawny said, smiling easier now. "She could probably land a rich guy with those looks." "Did you just call me poor?" "I only mean she could get someone better than a manwhore with commitment issues." "Fuck you," I said and Judd looked ready to hit me. "I could commit if I wanted to. If I wasn't expecting to die soon, I'd commit all over the fucking place." "You don't even have a pet." "Who would take care of my pet when I died?" "If it was a cat, we'd take it in." Judd frowned. "No more cats." "One more wouldn't hurt. In fact, if we have a bunch of cats, people will stop asking when we're having a kid." Judd's frown disappeared. "Another cat wouldn't be the end of the world." "Judd's the one who can't commit," I muttered. "He's married and we have two cats. We're plenty committed. You're the one getting hickeys from a girl who likely will marry someone else in a few months." "Why a few months?" "I don't know. I just feel like she'll be married in a few months. A rich guy." "Are you psychic now?" "Yes, I'm going to open a shop and tell people their fortunes." Smiling, Judd kissed her forehead. "A businesswoman. That's sexy." "Don't even think about ditching me again so you two can fuck. You can hump each other later." "Oh, we will," Tawny said, waving over the waitress. book-quotepsychicjudd-and-tawnyvaughnTucker entered the room and sighed. "Maddy's a hormonal mess. Can't wait until she pops the kid out and we're done with that moody shit." "I think chicks are still moody after they pop them out," Cooper said, studying me. "Judd thinks Tawny can figure out our mole." "Is she psychic?" Glancing at Tucker, I smiled. "You haven't gotten laid in days. You know you did something wrong, but you don't know what and Maddy won't tell you. Instead of just asking, you decided she's hormonal. Maybe you oughta ask and end the suspense, Tuck?" Tucker grinned. "Bring her so we can kill the mole and clean this shit up before Pop decides our balls ain't big enough to take over." Cooper sighed. "What about Farah?" Judd chewed on a piece of bacon and glanced at me. "Tell her Tawny is your assistant. Farah knows her sister can read people. If you don't find the mole soon, it's going to affect her too." Leaning back against a desk, Cooper crossed his muscular arms and stared at me. "What did you tell her?" he asked Judd, even though his eyes remained on me. "Nothing." "Fuck," Cooper muttered. "Fine, but if there's trouble, we get her out of the way." Judd rolled his eyes. "I wasn't planning on using my woman as a shield, boss. I'd let them shoot you before I let anything happen to her." Cooper smirked. "I'm glad I never got all stupid and whipped like you are now." Laughing so hard at his brother's bullshit, Tucker both farted and burped. Soon, everyone was laughing. book-quotejudd-and-tawnytuckerWhat's the problem, babe?" Judd asked, climbing off the bike and caressing my cheek. "I feel underdressed. I look trashy." Glancing over my jeans, gray sweater, beige jacket, and tennis shoes, Judd frowned. "We're visiting the Johanssons, not the Rockefellers." Crossing my arms, I felt dirty like I needed a shower. I felt hideous and unworthy of every good thing in my life. Judd leaned down and pressed his forehead to mine. "You know who's inside? Your big sis surrounded by loud stinky bikers. They're burping and stinking up the place and she's all alone, waiting for someone to save her." Grinning slightly, I still felt grumpy. Yet, Judd tugged me closer until I smiled up at him. "After we do this family crap where Cooper acts like I should give a shit what he thinks, we'll go back to my place and try out the hot tub. We might have to share it with one of my elderly neighbors. If it's Morty, he won't mind a little show." Laughing, I sighed. "I don't know why I get so pissy sometimes." Judd looked ready to answer then changed his mind. "Everyone gets pissy sometimes, babe. I almost did once too." "Almost?" "This close," he said, showing me his fingers. "It was so fucking close, but turned out, I was just hungry. Maybe that's your problem?" "Maybe." "Let's get you fed then. book-quotejudd-and-tawnypissystinky-bikersYou know what you were and it wasn't a job." His words taunted me, offering a glimmer of hope. Yet, his words on the driveway less than two months ago lingered in my thoughts. "Why are you bothering me?" "You're not to go around Mac again. Do you understand?" "I don't have to listen to you." Judd narrowed his eyes at me. "Fine. I'll tell him to stay away from you. He'll listen if he wants to keep both eyes." "Whatever. He's one guy and the college is full of them. Bailey and I are going to a frat party this weekend. Can't take all of those guys' eyes." "Is that a challenge?" "You got me here safe," I said, trying to look away, but unable to. "You did your job and I'm sure you got paid. What more do you want?" Judd glanced at approaching Harleys then focused on me. When he erased the space between us again, I shivered at the feel of his breath on my cheek. "You know what I want." "To fuck me because I'm hot." Judd stared in my eyes and I saw the walls come down. Even staring into those pained baby blues, I remembered how coldly he discarded me. Over a month passed with no word from him. Yet, one guy sniffed around me and Judd was suddenly interested. "Is your birthday present to me to make me a woman?" I whispered, holding his gaze. "You have to know I'm not a virgin and you'd do nothing someone hasn't done before. There's no prize between my legs. Maybe you outta stop threatening random men and go find yourself a real woman." Judd opened his mouth to speak until he heard Cooper's voice from inside the house. When the arriving guests called back to their boss, Judd stepped away from me. Sighing, he shoved his hands into the pockets of his brown leather jacket. "I see a prize when I look at you," he said softly as he walked past, "but it's not between your legs." He pressed a little wrapped box into my hand. "Happy birthday, angel." Appearing on the porch, Cooper lost his smile when he saw Judd and me. The men gave each other a little nod before Judd stepped off the porch and past the men who also did their male hello gestures. The men disappeared inside, but Cooper remained next to me as I watched Judd drive away on a black Harley. book-quotejudd-and-tawnynot-a-job
