“You don’t have to say shit, Driller,” Apostle grunts.
I know I don’t, but this is huge. I know it’s huge. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted and now that I have Emery, I can make her dreams come true as well.
Lucifer reaches across his desk and slams down a set of keys on the wood. “Grab your woman as soon as you can, go on out to the building, and talk about what you need to make this happen.” He pierces me with a stare before he turns it on Hammer and Apostle. “I want you open within two months.”
“You got it, Prez,” I assure him while grabbing the keys and standing.
Hammer and Apostle stand, and I give them both bro hugs before I practically run out of Lucifer’s office. I can’t fucking wait to tell my woman about this. The only thing that could make this day better was if I had her cut already.
It’s already been hard enough not to slip my ring on her finger since she let me past her walls and forgave me for the morning when I fucked everything up.
I’m not sure I deserve the love Emery gives me, but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to soak it up. I couldn’t let her go now even if I wanted to. But that’s the last thing I want.
I barely pay attention to who is hanging out in the clubhouse as I head through and out to my bike. It’s time to let my woman in on the news. Then she’ll be able to leave that fucking shop.
They don’t deserve her talent or her light.
I might not either, but at least I appreciate her.
With the wind wrapping around me and the sun shining down on me, I’m one step closer to having everything I’ve ever wanted. Hell, I have even more because I wasn’t sure that I would really find an old lady.
But I have and I’m never letting her go.
EPILOGUE
SIX WEEKS LATER
EMERY
Talk about a fucking whirlwind. That’s all the last six weeks have been and all of the work, all the conversations, all our focus, is paying off tomorrow. It’s almost too good to be true, but I know it is because the warmth of my man and the presence of his hard body against my back is a reminder that this is all very fucking real.
“Tomorrow,” I breathe out as I look around the cozy space that we’ve created in the front of the shop.
The windows are still covered so no one can see in, but the lights in the space make it bright, modern, and clean looking. It’s exactly what I envisioned the first time Kade showed me the building. That day was one of the best of my life, but not better than the day Kade showed back up and then never wavered from making up his blunder and showing me I’m his priority.
Once Kade explained to me that this building was ours for our shop and showed me the paperwork, I didn’t hesitate to call my asshole of a boss and quit. Right then and there. The next calls I made were to my clients.
When I told them that I was going to be opening my own shop with my man, they were more than happy to wait and be put on my schedule for as soon as the doors were to open. We told everyone two months, but Hammer was a man on a mission and now everything is ready to open two weeks early.
“Tomorrow,” Kade’s voice skitters along the sensitive skin right behind my ear which causes a shiver to work up and down my spine. “And now that everyone else is gone and we’re ready to open, we can christen the shop.”
I spin and look up at my husband with wide eyes.
Yes. Husband.
It wasn’t even a week after Kade showed me our building that I woke up with a property cut on my back and a gorgeous ring on my finger. It’s not flashy in the traditional sense, but the inlaid opals in the band make it the perfect ring for me because it won’t snag on the gloves I have to wear.
When I looked over at Kade, he was watching me with a smug as fuck grin on his face as he lounged next to me on our bed in the clubhouse. He had talked me into letting go of my apartment while dropping the bomb on me that we’d need to choose house plans for a build in the compound the same day that he showed me the shop. I didn’t even fight him because it was all so much and soaking everything that he was giving me that day was almost too much to absorb.
But why would I fight him anyway?
I clutched the sheet to my chest a little tighter and glared at him, even though there wasn’t much heat behind it, “Aren’t you supposed to ask me?”
Kade’s grin turned into a huge smile. “Already claimed you, this,” he pointed to the cut and the ring, “only makes it official.”
I couldn’t fight the smile on my face any longer and tackled my man to the bed. I then proceeded to kiss his chest and down his body before taking his cock into my mouth and showing him just how much I appreciated and loved his claim.
It’s not like I would have said no if he had asked, but the fact that he didn’t was such a Kade thing to do that I found myself falling in love with him just a little bit more.
