“Here are some shots of different Keres MC who have entered the warehouse while we have been staking it out. Anyone know any of them?”
Draco was placing a row of images on the table as he spoke. There was one image that caught her attention. “That one. He was the one in the car. It felt like he was the leader.” She had recognized the face. She was so happy to be able to help in even a small way. Since her vision, she had been praying that what she had seen wouldn’t come to pass.
Every time she had tried to change a vision she had failed, so this really frightened her. “Are you sure that was the one man?” Draco asked.
“Yes, I saw him clearly. He felt so evil I wouldn’t mistake that one.” Wulf was stroking her neck. He could hear her heart beating frantically in fear. He tried to calm her, he didn’t like her being afraid. Didn’t she realise he would always protect her.
“Calm yourself Angel, Draco believes you, he just needs to make sure.” Wulf shot Draco a deadly look, clearly telling him to back off. The meeting continued in a similar vein; more photos being displayed but she only recognised another two from her vision. As they laid out the building plans and planned how to go about breaching the building, she stopped paying attention and was looking at one of the TV screens with the news, when she saw another face she recognised.
“There, there. That’s the other man that was in the car.” She was practically jumping on Wulf’s lap, pointing at the screen. All the men looked at the screen, there were different reactions around the table, but mostly anger.
“Are you saying that’s the man in the car with Merdor?” Draco questioned.
All the men knew special agent Jack Finn. He worked for the FBI and sent them a lot of Intel that they had worked off before. He had also tipped them off about this building, so it made sense that it was him. They had a few agents and police that they paid for information. They were always very careful, even when meeting with agents, never letting them into the compound and that now seemed very wise. They had always made a habit of meeting contacts away from the compound and only the Jezebels and brothers were allowed in the compound.
“I’m going to kill the bastard.” That from Caelius. This was a surprise to Jas, as Caelius was the peacemaker in the group. From what Wulf had said to her there was nothing Caelius couldn’t fly. Caelius was the silent type. He didn’t talk much but when he did everyone listened.
“Okay, let’s not get carried away. We need to draw Merdor out, maybe we can even use our friend Jack to fish him out.” Even though Draco was talking calmly there was a glint in his eye that betrayed his emotions.
“If that’s all you need from me? I would like to go start dinner,” Jas enquired.
Draco nodded. Wulf kissed her nape and helped her up. “If you need help, ask one of the Jezebels?”
She caressed his cheek. “No, it’s fine. Thank you.”
About to walk out the door, Draco stepped in front of her, immediately Wulf was next to her. “I speak for all of us here Jas. Thank you for everything you have been doing for us. I’m not even going to say how good your food is. I think all of us have put on a few pounds.” This was so unexpected she didn’t know what to say. Her eyes glazed with tears.
“Thank you, you all like family to me, I just want to contribute.” A tear slipped down her cheek. Most of them looked horrified by her tears. “I’m very happy that you all like my food.”
Opening the door, she rushed out before she disgraced herself by sobbing. She was walking towards the kitchen. “Jas, you okay?” Wulf was right behind her with a worried look on his face. She turned to face him with the brightest smile he had ever seen; it made his heart skip a beat.
“I’m more than okay, for the first time in my life I feel at home, and I feel worthy.” Wulf was speechless, he had never thought that she might not feel at home here.
“Woman, you are very worthy. If anyone ever says differently they will have to answer to me!” he said gruffly making a fierce face as he half teased her.
She Giggled “I’m sure that you would.”
She got up on her tiptoes and planted a fierce kiss on his lips. “Thank you,” she whispered and was about to turn away, when he brought her close again and kissed her breathless. They had been kissing for a little while when Wulf broke off the kiss, just as someone cleared his throat behind him.
“Would you like to join us again, Wulf? Or do you need a few more minutes to compose yourself?” Ceric quipped.
Jas was so flustered she hid her face on Wulf’s chest, trying to regain her breath. “Fuck off! I’m coming.” They heard Ceric chuckle as he returned to the meeting.
“How would you like to go for a ride after dinner?” Wulf wanted to get her away just to himself where there would be no interruptions.
“Yes please”. He smiled at her enthusiasm as she was practically clapping, he nodded once then turned and was gone. She hadn’t been outside since she had arrived here. Wulf kept on putting it off saying how dangerous it was. She was so excited; she’d better hurry with dinner. The sooner they ate the sooner they would be able to go out.
Chapter 9
When the men joined her in the kitchen for dinner they were pensive, not joking around as was their custom. Well, she was so excited about the outing tonight she had even made a chocolate pudding. It was the first time she had made dessert for them, so hopefully they enjoyed it. Getting up to go get it Wulf held her arm.
“I made dessert I was going to get It.” She promptly shook his hand away and went to the fridge to get the huge bowl of pudding. It turned out to be quite funny as these men, fighters as they were, turned to little boys when they saw the dessert. Their pudding bowls were emptied in seconds. Bjarni had three helpings with a big smile on his face. It was funny; all the men teased him about how he was only happy when he was eating, but all of them loved their food.
“Are you ready to go?” She had been so fascinated watching them all enjoy their dessert that she hadn’t even noticed when he had got up.
“We’re going out up to the Drunk Bull,” Wulf informed everyone.
“I will join you, feel like getting out,” Ceric called out.
“Me too,” Bjarni joined.
As Wulf was about to complain Draco intervened. “Wulf, Bjarni and Ceric will join you. You know if anyone should attack you and something happens to Jas we would lose you. I will not take that risk.” Wulf scowled at Draco for a while, then nodded. Turning they made their way out of the kitchen towards the garage. Jas could hear Bjarni’s and Ceric’s footsteps behind them. Entering the garage, they made their way towards the bikes; as they approached Wulf’s bike Jas noticed a box on top of Wulf’s machine.
“A present for you, I hope you like it.” Wulf handed her the box, she was so excited. She had never received a present in her life, she didn’t even know what to do.
“Don’t you want to open it?” he queried with a smile when she was just standing there, staring at the box as if something was going to jump out and bite her.
“I have never had anyone give me a present before.”
Again, she looked up at Wulf with tears in her eyes. Wulf wiped away a tear that was sliding down her cheek. “Sweetheart don’t cry, I wanted to make you happy not sad.”
Wulf felt as if someone was squeezing his heart as he saw the tears in her eyes. “I am happy. It is just overwhelming, I have never had anyone treat me like you do. Thank you, Wulf, you make me very happy.” She said. Lifting onto her tiptoes and giving him such a tender kiss that Wulf was considering staying, not going for a ride and taking her to bed instead.
Opening the lid of the box she found a black leather jacket. “Oh Wulf, it’s beautiful!” the jacket fit her perfectly, moulding her body. The back had the wings of the Elementals MC with “Property of Wulf” below. She had semi- high-heel boots, with a black low back top. The jacket complemented the outfit.
“I will make sure to give you more presents, you are my woman now. You deserve to be spoile
d.” Wulf promised.
“Thank you,” she said hugging him.
“Are we going to ride or would you like Bjarni and I to hug too,” Ceric teased.
Jas laughed. “Yes please, I would like to see that,” she joked. Ceric laughed, moving towards Bjarni who was about to mount his bike.
“Come here you handsome devil, give me a hug.” Ceric played moving as if he was about to hug Bjarni.
“Hey! Fuck off. You hug me and I will burn your hair while you sleep!” Bjarni threatened as he backed away from Ceric. Ceric and Jas laughed while Wulf shook his head in amusement.
“Come on Bjarni give the man a kiss.” Wulf joined the teasing, loving the laughter he had heard from Jas and wanting to hear it again. Mission accomplished, she started to laugh so hard she was bent over at the face Bjarni pulled.
“Would rather kiss a rat, than this pompous asshole!” Bjarni grumbled, smiling at their teasing. As their laughter died down they prepared to ride. Soon she was sitting close behind Wulf and they were riding down the winding road with trees on both sides. It was so beautiful she could just see the moon through the trees. Hugging Wulf she let herself go, to just feeling this experience. Wulf was content. He could feel the happiness radiating from her. They rode for about twenty minutes until they came to the pub and restaurant hidden between the trees just outside the city. The men sometimes visited this establishment when looking for a good meal; but since Jas had moved in and started preparing their meals no one had missed a meal.
They parked the bikes and dismounted, heading towards the pub area. “Seems busy tonight,” Bjarni mentioned, looking around at all the cars.
“Yeah, we won’t be long; just having a drink then we can leave.” Wulf was feeling uncomfortable bringing her close to so many people, especially men. She had been in the compound since she had arrived. She needed to be out with other people for a bit, and then they would return home. Besides, this place was safer than any in the city. As they walked in they noticed there was some kind of bachelorette party going on in the restaurant area. One group of men in the far side of the pub looked like they had one too many drinks already plus a table with two couples; and three regulars at the bar talking about sport.
Ceric took the lead, moving towards a table near one of the windows, followed by Wulf and Jas, with Bjarni taking up the rear. Jas sat next to the window and Wulf sat on the outside, better to protect her if need be. Ceric and Bjarni sat across from them. As soon as they sat down a waitress appeared at their table, she must have been in her mid-twenties. Jas raised her brows when she saw the woman’s cleavage. Her nipples were about to pop out.
“Hi guys. I was starting to lose hope that you weren’t ever coming to visit me again.” She clearly flirted as she looked at each man.
“Hi Suzy. We wouldn’t do that,” Ceric said winking at her.
“I’m glad to hear that, I was about to resign. You guys are what keeps me here.”
“So, what can I get you today?” Her tone suggested anything they wanted including her. Bjarni was smiling while looking at her breasts unashamedly. Ceric was rubbing his finger up and down her arm. Lucky for Wulf he was looking down at the drinks menu. She would have strangled him if he had been drooling over this hussy. Had he drooled over her before? Did he also ogle her breasts like Bjarni was doing? Well obviously, the other two liked her, they were practically drooling.
“Hey Sugar. How have you been? Haven’t seen you in a while” Suzy asked turning her attention to Wulf, she put her hand on his hair starting to stroke it. Wulf grabbed her wrist with such speed she hardly had time to touch him. As soon as she turned her attention to Wulf, Jas’s mood soured.
‘How dare she touch him, if she tries that again she will lose a hand.’
“Hi Suzy, I’ve been around.” Dropping her wrist he continued looking at his menu. He had felt Jas tensing beside him and could feel how tense she was sitting. This was a bad idea, he had forgotten about Suzy. Some of the brothers had fucked her but he wasn’t one of them, Suzy found that a challenge. He was starting to regret coming here; he knew that the possessiveness he felt towards Jas, would be felt by Jas also. It was part of the bond between mated couples.
“And who might you be?” Suzy asked, looking at Jas with a raised brow.
“She’s my wife.” Wulf stated before Jas could reply. He took hold of her fisted hand that was on her lap and brought it to his lips. Kissing her fingers tenderly.
“Oh, you have just broken my heart!” Suzy teased, giving Jas a curious look, studying her from her head to her feet. She could feel the woman’s jealous stare boring into her.
“How about three drafts. What would you like Jas?” Ceric asked, trying to break the tension. He had only realised what was happening when Wulf stopped Suzi from stroking his hair.
“Cola, thanks,” she said woodenly.
“Sure, I will be right back.” Winking at them she moved away swinging her hips. As she left, Wulf glanced at Jas, she was sitting rigidly, staring out the window.
“Damn, that woman is definitely an eyeful!” Bjarni stated, completely oblivious of the tension between Jas and Wulf. She turned her head from the window and glared at him, Wulf gave him a murderous look and Ceric elbowed him in the ribs.
“What?” He had been so distracted with Suzy that he was oblivious to the tension at the table and didn’t understand why everyone was frowning at him.
“Did you sleep with her?” she questioned Wulf, glaring at him.
“No!” Damn! He should have just turned around and left when he saw Suzy, but no, like an idiot he hadn’t thought about it.
“Angel, she’s just a flirt. I have never found her attractive, I swear.” When he had parked the bike, and felt uncomfortable he should have known. He always followed his instinct but today he had squashed the feeling and come in anyway. Now his woman was upset with him. Damn he felt like hitting something. As he saw Suzy making her way towards them again, he groaned.
“Jas? Where are you going?” Wulf asked taking hold of her wrist as she got up.
“To the bathroom, why can’t I?” she answers sarcastically and starts to try to move around him.
“I will take you.” He gets up to follow her, but she places her hand over his. “No. I can go to the bathroom by myself.” And with a glare she shakes his hand off her arm and moves away.
“Jas!” he warned.
“Wulf!” She returned glaring at him, but he could see the hurt in her eyes. That’s what changed his mind. She walked towards the back of the pub where the bathrooms were situated, just as Suzy arrived at their table.
“Here you go boys. Where’s the wife?” Wulf was so focused looking at Jas that he didn’t even hear her. In the meantime, another table called Suzy and she left to take their order.
“Relax,” Ceric said, looking at Wulf and thinking about what had happened to that fearless, controlled brother that he knew.
‘If this is what it means to have a mate, I’m not in a hurry to get mine.’
“Fuck! We should never have stopped here!” Wulf growled as he got up to go after her.
“Where are you going?” Bjarni asked.
“To find my woman, and make peace. Try to keep your mouth shut next time, will you?” He was walking to the rear of the pub when he heard Jas call for him. His heart lurched as he moved in a blur to get to her.
She had been so angry that she hadn’t paid attention as she rounded the corner at the back and started down a corridor to get to the ladies, a man stepped out of the men’s and bumped into her. Falling back, she hit the wall as he practically fell on her. Hitting her shoulder against the wall there was an instant excruciating pain. It hurt like the devil.
“Well! Well! What have I found? Must be my lucky day.” He reeked of alcohol, as he spoke she realised that he was drunk, very drunk.
“Excuse me!” Straightening from the wall she tried to get past.
“Don’t be in a hurry Darling!” Moving closer to her he blocked
her path to the bathroom, this also bringing her closer to him.
“Mmm, you smell nice!” He tried pressing his lips to her neck, but she put her hand against his chest pushing him away, she couldn’t put much pressure on her right arm as it was still painful and numb.
“Let me go!” but he wasn’t listening. His hand had come up to cup her breast. She was sure she was going to gag.
“Wulf!” she screamed, as loud as she could manage. Starting to panic, she heard her T-shirt tear. As the man was pulling at it. Suddenly he was thrown off her and she could breathe without gagging. She heard a growl as if from an animal, looking to her left she saw Wulf picking the man up by his jacket and pinning him to the wall. Banging his head against the wall a few times, the man looked like he was unconscious but Wulf carried on shacking him. Bjarni appeared behind Wulf with Ceric standing by the entrance to the corridor that led to the bathrooms.
“Wulf. Come on my man, let him go. Jas is fine, see.” Bjarni looked sideways at her and motioned with his hand for her to come over to him.
“Speak to him Jas, so he knows you’re okay.”
“Please let him go Babe, just take me home.” placing her hand on his bicep, it felt like rock as he held the man by his throat.
“Wulf. Please!” She just wanted to leave and go home. Wulf frightened her in this state, even though she knew he would never hurt her.
“Wulf!”
Regaining control, he shook his head to try and clear his vision. He was breathing erratically; his eyes were still smouldering but awareness was now apparent.
“Jas?” Looking at her his rage started to take over again as he saw her. She could just guess at her appearance, that her T-shirt was torn. Her face was puffy and she couldn’t move her arm without flinching.
