Command (Storm MC 6)
I stood and wrapped my arms around him.
Home.
He’s my home.
His strong arms held me tight and then he ran one hand over my hair. “I’m taking it from the blood on Scarlett’s face that Bourne has been here, but where is he now?”
“King took him downstairs.”
His brow furrowed. “King is here?”
“Yeah, he saved our lives, Scott. If he hadn’t turned up when he did, Scarlett and I would be dead by now.”
“Fuck.” He pressed his lips to my forehead and then pulled his face back to find my gaze. “I think this is the last of all the shit. I think Bourne was the one behind everything.”
If I knew my man well, I knew he was itching to get downstairs and help King, so I jerked my head towards the back door. “You should go and see if King needs a hand.”
He bent his face so he could whisper in my ear. “You know me too well, sweetheart.” When he shifted his face away from mine, his concerned eyes took mine in. “Seriously, though, are you okay?”
I exhaled. “Surprisingly, yes. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sick of being threatened by assholes, and I was terrified of him, but I’ll be okay.”
And I would be.
I had Scott and it looked like this might be the end of all the bad stuff that had been bringing the club down.
We’d stuck together and gotten through it, even when it felt completely overwhelming at times.
We can get through anything so long as we stick together.

Scott
Two Days Later
It had been two days since we’d taken out Bourne and finally put to rest all the problems Storm had been having. Order had been restored and questions had finally been answered. And I’d told all club members to take a few days and spend them with their family.
It was a sunny January afternoon and I was sitting on my back deck, beer in one hand, my woman in my lap with her tits pressed up against me, and her lips on mine. Order definitely had been restored.
I ran my hand over her ass. “I’ve missed this,” I said when she ended our kiss.
“Missed what?”
“Making out with you, without a fuckin’ care in the world. Storm’s had so much shit going on for so long now, that I can’t remember the last time I could dedicate so many hours to this.”
She gave me one of her sexy grins. “I’ve missed it, too.”
A memory flashed in my mind and I chuckled. “Do you remember that three date policy bullshit you tried to pull on me when we first started seeing each other?”
Her grin lit up her face. “I do, and I’ll have you know you are the only man I ever broke that policy for.”
“Maybe I could bribe you into marriage the same way you tried to bribe me into sex.”
“What would this bribe entail?” She tried to plant another kiss on my lips, but I pulled my face away to deny her that kiss.
“I’ll give you a kiss if you agree to marry me.”
She slapped me playfully on my chest. “Worst marriage proposal ever, Scott Cole!”
