“Oh,” she whispered, rolling her window back up. She jumped down out of her truck, looking back to check on her toddler who was still sound asleep in her car seat. “I guess I fell asleep. I’m Phoenix,” she said holding out her hand to him.
He gently shook her hand, “Riggs,” he said. God, she was gorgeous. Even with messy hair from sleeping in her truck and smudged eye makeup under her eyes, she was sexy as fuck. She was just the type of woman that he liked to ask out and that was a problem since all of them were trouble. If he asked Mrs. Aggie’sgranddaughter out, he might piss off his neighbor if things didn’t go right between them.
“Is Riggs short for something?” she asked.
“No,” he said. “My name is Tommy, but everyone calls me Riggs because I own a towing company.” He nodded back to his tow truck as if in explanation. God, he was acting like an idiot just because a pretty woman was smiling at him. From what Mrs. Aggie told him that Phoenix was about twenty and hadn’t had a real easy go of it since she ran away at sixteen. She said that her granddaughter had just gotten in touch with her a few months back, asking if she could come home and bring her toddler, and of course, Mrs. Aggie said yes. She was the sweetest woman he knew in town.
“Riggs’ Towing,” Phoenix read on the side of the truck. “So, Riggs, how do you know Aggie?” she asked, looking him up and down. “Why are you helping her out? You two dating? She did inform me tonight that she loves bikers—which, by the way, is something that no granddaughter needs to hear her grandmother admit.” She winked at him the way that Mrs. Aggie did earlier, and damn if his cheeks didn’t heat just like they do every time his neighbor winked at him.
“Well, I don’t know much about her liking bikers or anything, but I’m her neighbor. She’s very sweet to me, and helping her out is my pleasure,” he added.
“You didn’t answer one of my questions, Riggs,” she said. “Are you dating my grandmother?”
“No,” he insisted. “As I just said, we’re neighbors and that’s it. Sometimes, she takes pity on me and brings me dinner when I work late, but that’s all.” Phoenix looked him over as though she wasn’t sure if she believed him
“Well, how can I help you get this old heap running again?” she asked.
“I was thinking about towing you into a gas station, but it’s late and this is a small town. Everything closes down here after midnight, even gas stations,” he said.
“Yeah, I remember that. I used to hate it when places closed early every night and when I lived here, there were a lot of stores that were closed on Sunday. Is that still the case?” she asked.
“Basically,” he said, “you’re back in the Bible belt again, and if places are open on Sunday, they now open after noon.”
“Well, this is going to be so much fun,” she grumbled.
“If you hated this place so much, why come back?” he asked. He loved everything about living in Huntsville. He and his sister decided to move down to Alabama after she sold her company back in New York. They wanted a slower pace of life, and boy did they get it. Sometimes, he missed the big city, but then, he’d sit out on his big front porch and watch the sun go down, and that was when he knew that it was all worth it.
“I really had nowhere else to go. My grandmother is sweet enough to take me and Lydia in, and I appreciate her so much. She wanted me to come home, and she wanted to meet Lydia. I honestly missed her and God, I made some shitty decisions over the past four years, but my daughter wasn’t one of them. So, I packed what little we had and bought this piece of shit truck to get us back across the country, and here we are,” she said, looking back into the cab of the truck.
“Your grandmother has been talking about you and your daughter moving in with her,” he admitted. “How about if take you to Mrs. Aggie’s and I’ll run to town in the morning to get you some gas? It will be enough to get your truck to the gas station to fill it up I know that she’s glad to have you both moving in with her and she’ll be waiting up to see you. So, are you ready to finally get back home?” he asked.
“As I’ll ever be,” she joked.
“And you’ll be right next door, huh?” she asked.
“Um, yeah,” he said, “When I’m not working, which feels like that is all I do right now.”
“Well, maybe you could take a night off and bring me back here so that I can see what a real biker bar is,” she said. He wasn’t sure if she was teasing or not, but he knew that it wasn’t a good idea to date Mrs. Aggie’s granddaughter.
“Your grandmother comes here all the time. Maybe you’d be more comfortable coming here with her,” he offered.
“Oh—yeah, maybe. Thanks for the help tonight, Riggs. I’ll get Lydia and her car seat out of my truck. Can we ride with you back to Aggie’s?” she asked. He wasn’t sure if she sounded disappointed or not by him turning her down flat, but he knew for sure that he was disappointed in himself. A beautiful woman had asked him out and he pushed her off onto her grandmother. He was an idiot—but then again, that was something that he already knew.

What’s coming next from K.L. Ramsey? You won’t want to miss this hot MMF story! Insatiable (The Kink Club Book 2) is coming soon!
Zane
Zane wasn’t sure why he was so nervous. Buying into the kink club with Ross and Leo felt right, not that he’d admit that to either of them. When they both approached him about joining their business venture, he thought that they were crazy—until he visited the club on his own and saw how packed it was. He found himself going back night after night, hoping to prove the guys wrong, but the club was always busy, and he knew that buying in made good business sense.
He walked through the club, watching the men and women who were there to have a good time, and just let loose, and Zane wondered if he’d ever be able to be that free with his sexuality. He never really flaunted the fact that he liked both men and women. Hell, if he was being honest, his perfect night at the club would involve him being in the middle of a thrupple. But finding one willing person to play with was becoming an issue for him. He really didn’t like putting himself out there and walking up to a man or woman at the club, and asking them if they wanted to play, just felt awkward to him. Watching was so much easierthan participating, and voyeurism was quickly becoming his new hobby.
“You’re here early,” Ross said. He and Leo liked to use the private rooms at the back of the club, but Zane had always had a thing not only for watching but being watched too. The thought of being part of a thrupple, in the middle of the playroom, really turned him on.
“Yeah, work was slow, so I thought that I’d come over here and see how things were going,” he lied. The three of them had agreed that Zane would be more of a silent partner in The Kink Club, and that worked for him. He was being trained to take over his father’s company someday, and it was taking up all his free time. The only reason he showed up to the club, night after night, was to try to find a couple that interested him.
“Are you really asking if you can help out around here, Zane?” Ross asked.
