Once I came outside the building, the hot summer air spread around me, allowing my body to release some of the tension. Just barely. I walked over to the bikers and Em. She looked picture perfect. As always.
“Come here, hon!” she squealed, wrapping her arms around me, hugging me,” You look absolutely fantastic.”
“Thanks” I murmured, feeling self-conscious all of a sudden. The two guys both sat on their bikes, watching us quietly. One of them was smoking.
“Rage, this is Misty. Misty Rage,” she grinned, introducing us. I shook his hand and he smiled. I couldn’t help but notice how great his tattoos looked. Shit, get a grip. You hate bikers, remember?
“Good to meet you,” he nodded, flicking his cigarette.
“This is my friend Beast,” he added, motioning towards the other guy.
“Hey Misty,” the other guy said emotionlessly, not even moving.
Fuck, if this was the guy that Rage wanted to hook me up with, it was so not happening. The guy looked hot, I hated to admit it. But he seemed completely uninterested in what was going on around him. If he couldn’t even shake my hand, well. Deal breaker. It’s going to be a long night, I thought to myself.
“Let’s go girls,” Rage said, motioning me towards Beast and his bike. I felt Em grab my hand and squeezed it hard. Then the strong engines started roaring.
“It will be a fantastic night,” she said, before she hopped on Rage’s bike. I forced my body to get on Beast’s bike and when I wrapped my arms around him, I was taken back in time. My body reacted in the same pathetic way, like with my stepbrother. Making me feel so warm and hot. This was a bad idea. I shivered in heat, as we started riding.

Once we got to the Hell Rebel club, I noticed how many people were there. The music was rolling out to the streets and many bikers and a huge crowd of sexy ladies stood in front of the place, smoking, drinking, and laughing.
That made feel just a bit at ease. Surely, I could just sneak out the back after half an hour? Nobody would ever notice.
“Are you excited?” Em hugged me, as we walked towards the door.
“You have no idea” I murmured.
“Is there a celebration?” I called out to Rage. He turned around, nodding.
“Yeah, it’s an annual thing we started doing last year. It’s awesome. Clubs connected to Hell Rebel’s come from around the US to party over one weekend. And we also talk some business.” I knew what kind of business he meant. Damn, they were all the same.
“Let’s go,” he said, before disappearing into the thick crowd. Once we were inside, a strange feeling took hold of me.
I looked around, feeling as if I was pulled back in time, yet again. Everything looked so familiar. It even smelled the same. Sexy and hot air, mixing with woodsy masculine colognes and sweat. Damn it, I really needed to get out as soon as possible. I hadn’t even noticed that I had started biting my lower lip, before Em touched my shoulder.
“You okay?” she signaled with her mouth, through the loud music.
“Yeah!” I said loudly.
“Great! Let’s grab a drink,” she said and we followed our company to the bar. Rage ordered us some drinks and Beast stood quietly next to me. What felt like an eternity soon became one or so it felt like to me. I watched as the bikers and sexy women moved their bodies in front of us. I glanced over at Em and Rage, who at this point were looking really intimate. At least she is having fun. I took another gulp of my wine.
“Stop that silly!” Em was giggling as Rage was whispering inside her ear.
“I’m serious,” Rage said to her.
I looked at Beast quickly. He looked back at me.
“You don’t like parties, do you?” This was the first thing that he had said to me after ten minutes of silence.
“I have my days so…yeah,” I said, hoping he would get the hint that I didn’t feel like hanging out with him, more than necessary.
“Cool. Enjoy your drink then,” he said and walked over to the beautiful blond standing at the end of the bar.
Thanks for nothing jerk. I smirked and took another sip of my wine, as he started a conversation with the blond.
“Misty, are you having fun?” Em laughed through the music.
“A blast,” I said, thinking about when I could slip out so that nobody noticed.
“My friend is coming soon. He should be here any minute. ” Rage added.
Em brushed my hand unnoticeably and when I looked at her, she rose her eyebrows suggestively. I rolled my eyes at her grinning face.
“I thought Beast was your friend?” I said.
“He is one of them. I have many friends,” Rage started talking slowly and I could swear that this guy thought he was the Godfather himself. Oh the ego of the bikers, right…Right.
“I thought maybe I should call it an early evening-“
“No way Misty! You are staying. “Em turned around to Rage. “She needs another drink honey.”
“Sure thing babe,” Rage said and motioned to the bartender to get us another round.
The music got lower by the time the bartender had made us drinks. And it cleared out some of the crowd from the floor. A few minutes passed and I glanced at Em who now watched me with the same interrogation look, like earlier that afternoon. Her eyes were open wide.
“You owe me, remember?” she signaled with her lips.
Crap. I couldn’t let my own insecurities destroy her evening with Rage. She had been looking forward to this party ever since she hooked up with him.
“Thanks for inviting me Rage,” I pressed a smile,” And for the drinks.”
Em grinned ear to ear. She was clearly overjoyed that I had finally decided to join them.
“Not a problem Misty,” he said smiling then shouted across the room. His tattooed muscular arm waved high above us to someone at the entrance. “Over here man.”
“Here he comes,” he said to us. I felt annoyed that this guy had actually showed up. I was hoping he wouldn’t. I quickly turned around towards the bar, sipping on my drink. I’ll just be as dry as with Beast. He’ll get the hint.
“Hey man,” the baritone sexy voice grabbed my essence to the core. My heart stopped as I stiffened in the spot. No, this can’t be. No. No!!!! Of all the clubs in the world! Fuck.
Em turned around to the bar as well, grabbing my shoulders. Her lips on my ear.
“This is the guy,” she paused, looking at him again and then she was back to my ear,” Oh my god, he is so fucking hot! I mean smoking candy…wow…Turn around, turn around Misty,” she whispered but the intensity behind her words were clear as a day. My knees got weak in a second, followed but a huge drop inside my stomach. I tried speaking but I couldn’t.
“Glad you could make it Chaser man,” Rage said cheerfully.
“Yeah, almost that I didn’t, you know?”
“Good ride?”
“Oh man. That was a wild one. I got hooked up with some people down in New Mexico. ” My stepbrother chuckled. Probably blonds. He always had a thing for blonds. My heart started racing.
“Fuck man, I’m definitely coming with you in September,” Rage said.
“That’s what I’m expecting,” he said.
“Chaser, this is my girl, Em.” Rage said enthusiastically.
“Em, aren’t you a sight?” I could hear him leaning in and giving her a small kiss on the cheek. She giggled like a high school girl. Damn Casanova. Why did women flock around him like he had some sort of invisible magnetism? Why?!
I turned around abruptly, feeling the familiar tension rising inside my chest.
“And this is Misty. Em’s friend, “Rage said.
The moment his gaze met mine I was floored. The heat inside them lured me in. It felt like the time had stopped. He took one step towards me, forcing my body against the bar. My body felt faint as my knees started giving in. His aura completely consumed me, pulling me deep inside the heat I had run away from for so long.
“Your ha
nd please,” he said and I reached out to him.
Then he took my hand and brought up to his lips, slowly kissing it. The wet sensations burned my skin with his forbidden touch, my heart pounded so hard, I was scared to move. In a flash all the memories rushed back inside me. Fuck. It really was him. The only one in the whole world who could make me feel so helpless. So utterly exposed.
“Good to meet you Misty,” he released my hand and moved back a step. The whole room was spinning at this moment.
“You too,” I murmured, feeling my hand still trembling from his touch. In a moment, he started talking to Rage again. His face as cool as always. It was as if nothing had happened. I turned around to the bar again, taking a large sip of my wine.
“Hey girls, see you in a bit, yeah? I just want to show Chaser around,” Rage called to us and they disappeared inside the crowd.
“Oh my god, you two have such chemistry already!” Em whispered, waiving the bartender over,” It’s almost like you already know each other.”
I cleared my throat, slapping my thigh nervously. The whole charade was followed by my uneasy laughter.
“Yeah, right!” I finished the wine.” You are so funny…like we know each other.”
Fuck.
“Well you’ve got to admit that he is hot, no?”
I can’t believe she fell for that.
“Nah, definitely not my type,” I lied.
“You’re joking, right? This guy is everybody’s type…” Her eyes widened.
“I wish I was,” I said and changed the subject quickly.
***
The music got louder again and I spent another fifteen minutes talking to Em about our upcoming exams. All the time, I felt myself looking around the room, searching for him and Rage, but they were nowhere to be seen. I hated myself all over again for allowing him to get to me.
It seemed that nothing had changed. It was as if he still had the ability to melt me completely. After two long years of absence, I hadn’t made any progress. And I had missed two Christmases and every single break for what? To find out that I still wanted him just as bad, if not more. And it wasn’t the alcohol talking either. I felt more sober than before the drinks. Crap. No. No more! I needed to get out as soon as possible out of this place.
“Listen Em, I think I’m going to go, my head hurts a bit,” I said after drinking up the last sip of my third glass,” And I have to get up early tomorrow.”
“Are you sure?” she looked at me with puppy eyes,” They should be coming any time now.”
“Yeah, I’m sure. Sorry. Do I still owe you?” I asked her.
“No, thanks for coming hon,” she wrapped her arms around me and kissed my cheek goodbye.
“Bye Em,” I said.
***
I made my way through the thick crowd and when I started walking through the hallway, I felt a strong hand pull me back. I tripped and almost fell. Two strong arms caught me and pulled me back up. I recognized the cologne.
“That fucking guy, man… You okay?” Chaser asked me, holding me around the waist. Our eyes met and even though people were walking pass us, it felt like we were all alone.
“Yeah, thanks,” I breathed heavily, fighting the urge to touch his sexy tattooed biceps and taste those gorgeous lips.
He looked at me, his eyes completely empty. Then he released me, moving back.
“No problem.”
“Chaser, why don’t you come over here and I can show you that bike now?” a blonde appeared out of nowhere and leaned in against his side, her arm wandering slowly across his torso. I could see she bit her lip, as she touched the ripped muscles on his stomach. Seductiveness in her eyes was hard to miss. It looked like she only had one thing in mind. Getting him in bed. Fast.
“You said you were interested in seeing it,” she tried again. That fucking bitch! I looked away knowing my eyes would show just how much this bothered me.
“Are you leaving?” he asked. I quickly turned around and looked at him, not knowing if he meant her or me.
I could see the blond raising an eyebrow, eyeing me from head to toe. Yeah, he had definitely asked me.
“I don’t know,” I said, despite my head screaming that I should go. Run away as far from him as possible. He kept my gaze for a second, sending shivers throughout my body. It was as if he was undressing me with his magnetic eyes.
“Hey Andy, why don’t you take your little ass outside and have a smoke?” he said wrapping his arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him. She giggled. Like they all do. Damn it.
“Sure thing Chaser,” she smiled at him seductively, moving away a stray of her long hair from her face.
When she had left we stood there for a few moments just watching each other, as bikers and hot chicks moved pass us like a thick ocean mixed with alcohol and laughter.
“Come, we need to talk,” he said abruptly and grabbed my hand, leading me down the hallway. He opened one door with his foot and closed it behind him. I looked around the small room which looked like it was a hangout room. There was a pool table and a small leather couch in the corner. I was both nervous and delighted to find that there were no other people in there besides us.
He released my hand, living me in the middle of the room, then walked back to the door. He leaned on it, bringing his knee up.
“You said you wanted to talk to me,” I said, my voice cracking underneath the nervousness. I clasped the bag inside my hands, hoping he wouldn’t notice how shaky I was. “I think the blondie wants you back.” I smirked. Where the hell did that come from? I promised myself I wouldn’t show him I was jealous. Fuck, what a mess!
“She is just a friend. Yeah… about that talk…” he started slow, not releasing me from his sight. God, he looked absolutely gorgeous. Even more raw and dangerous than I remembered him. I don’t know why but I loved the fact that he was just friends with her. What I remembered from my stepbrother was one important thing. Even though he was famous for his love for blondes, whenever he used a word friend on one, basically meant she was not fuckable. Yeah, those were his exact words.
“I wanted to apologize,” he said and paused.
“Give me a break Chaser,” I smirked again,” The cool Chaser I used to know said to me on countless occasions that apology is not in his vocabulary.”
He chuckled.
“You have some memory, kid,” he said and my heart dropped. Fuck. It bothered me so much that he only saw me as a kid.
“I’m not a kid anymore,” I said firmly.
“I can see that,” he said, his eyes roaming over my body.
“Did you plan all of this in your sick head? Did you come here to spy on me, huh?” I asked him, feeling really annoyed and exposed.
“No.” He said looking at me calmly,” Wow…you really don’t think much of your older brother, do you?”
I didn’t respond.
“Yeah, I guess I only have myself to blame.” His voice was spreading around me so fast, I wanted so badly to go and hug him. But I couldn’t allow that.
“Look Dylan, I really should be going soon, so…” I said, looking around me nervously. The more time I spent with him, the stronger the craving in between my thighs got. I had made a mistake of allowing him to come too close once, but I was a kid back then. Everything had changed since that time. I wouldn’t allow another mistake like that to destroy more years of my life.
“Misty…For what it’s worth, I’m sorry.” He said and his voice had such warmness inside it, my jaw almost fell to the floor. I had never heard him sound so genuine, so honest.
Then he stepped away from the door.
“It was good seeing you.”
I felt my heart starting to race, as my mind struggled for reason. I wanted to go, but it was as if my body had already decided to stay. I was stiff as a stick. He had apologized to me after all those years.
I looked up at him, his eyes were empty. I wanted to get closer to search for answers inside them. For him to hold me and tell
me it was all going to be okay? But he just stood there, leaving the ball in my court.
I moved quickly towards the door and touched the handle. With my back to him, I asked.
“Why were you doing that? Why were you fighting with every guy who wanted to date me?” I asked him, feeling my heart open up. “Please tell, I need to know Dylan...I don’t understand. This is all so confusing.”
I heard him walk towards me. He didn’t stop until his hand reached for my long hair and he moved it gently to the side, leaving my neck exposed to him. His hot breath was spreading goose bumps all around me. My tummy welcomed the million butterflies that belonged only to him. I shivered as he leaned in even closer. His body was still not touching me, but I was already burning up.
“It was because I wanted you for myself, I’m sorry Misty. I know I was selfish,” he whispered, caressing my long hair. My body reacted immediately to him, arching my back. “You are so beautiful. I needed to protect you.”
“Tell me more please,” I whispered.
His arm wrapped around my waist, pulling my body closer to his. His essence taking over me. His rough beard brushed gently against my cheek a few times and I heard him take a deep breath. The forbidden touch that I had longed for so long, was finally mine. His warm body sent shivers throughout my whole body. Then I heard him swallow hard. He moved closer onto my ear and whispered softly.
“I’ve missed you so much...”
“Please…please, tell me more,” I begged him, needing him to open up completely to me.
“I want you to be mine …only mine baby…I need to move you, feel your soft touch on my skin and your body underneath me as your pussy tightens around my cock …” His hands went to my hips and he grabbed them strongly.
“Yes, yes,” I gasped out in pleasure. “More, please,” I breathed heavily pushing my hips against his bulging crotch, slowly starting to grind up and down, as if we were in a sensual dance.
“Fuck baby, you feel so good,” he grunted pushing me forth and back against his crotch slowly, until I started moaning.
