“Tell me your sizes, or…” Burn held out the paper and pen.“You can write them down.Your handwriting is probably more legible than mine anyway.”
Willow wrote everything down for them and then handed the paper back to Burn who pocketed it.Crash handed her a tee and some shorts with a drawstring waist.He knew they would swallow her, but maybe she’d be comfortable until Burn returned with some clothing for her own.
“You shower,” Burn said.“And I’ll go get some things for you.Doubt I’ll be back before you’re done though.Our clothes are going to swallow you, but they’ll have to do for about an hour.I should be back by then.”
“Uh, Burn…maybe you should ask Blaze if his mate can go with you?I have a feeling what we like on a woman, and what a woman likes to wear, are probably two different things.”Crash smiled.“Might as well make sure she’s comfortable.”
“Right.”Burn looked at Willow.“Would that make you feel better?If I had a female’s help?Blaze is newly mated, but Luna is sweet.She’s the town librarian.”
“Librarian?I have a feeling she dresses different from what I’m used to.You have to remember, I was raised by bikers.Just get me some jeans, tanks, and boots.I can pick out the rest later.You did say I could go shopping?”
Burn nodded.“We’ll both take you either tomorrow or day after, depending on what’s going on around here.”
“Then yeah, two tanks, the kind with a built in bra, and some jeans.Also, I’ll just need undies and I can wait on bras until I can try them on.”
Burn nodded, gave Crash a salute, and headed out, closing the door behind him.Crash walked over to the bathroom, flipped on the light and pulled a towel off the shelf on the wall.He realized belatedly that their soaps would be too harsh for her.
“Wait just one minute and I’ll be right back.”
Crash ran into the hall, hoping he could catch Blaze before the grizzly went home to his mate.He caught the bear just as he was walking out the door.
“Blaze, I need a favor.”
“What is it?I want to get home to Luna.”
“Did Luna leave any bath products in your shower?Maybe some shampoo and shower gel?”
Blaze frowned.“I think there’s a little left in there.What do you need with it?”
“Willow.I was about to let her take a shower and realized we only had manly smelling things in the shower.I thought, if you didn’t think Luna would mind, that maybe we could have what was in your bathroom and we’d replace it tomorrow when we take Willow shopping.”
Blaze nodded.“All right.Let’s get it so I can go home.And you don’t have to replace it.I’m sure Luna would love an excuse to shop.”
Blaze opened his room, got the shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel out of the bathroom and handed it all off to Crash.The tiger thanked him once more before running back to his room with his meager offering to Willow.When she saw what he held, a smile blossomed across her face.She eagerly reached for the items.
“I haven’t had feminine things… Well, ever.”
“There’s not much left in them, but we’ll let you buy some bath products, and whatever else you need, when we take you shopping tomorrow.”
“Thank you, Crash.”Her eyes teared, but before he could say anything, she snatched the clothes off the bed and locked herself in the bathroom.
Chapter Two
Burnhadmanagedtoget the things Willow had asked for, but when it came to women’s shoes, he was at a loss.Most of the boots had sky high heels and he wasn’t sure she would want those, not if she was going to ride on the back of his bike—or Crash’s.He kept looking, but nothing seemed right.Finally, he gave up and checked out with the clothing items.He’d just have to go to an actual shoe store for what he wanted, or rather, what he thought Willow needed.
Once he had the bags stashed on the floorboard of the truck he’d borrowed, he drove to the only shoe store he knew of in town.What he really needed was the Harley-Davidson shop two towns over, but it was so late there was no way they’d be open when he got there.But now that he knew what size Willow wore, he could surprise her with a pair at any time.Maybe even a Harley tee.
At the shoe store, he told the sales associate what he was looking for and the woman was happy to help.Perhaps a little too happy, with her light touches and flirtatious smile.He finally had to mention a girlfriend to get her to back off.He bought the boots, then hauled ass back to the clubhouse, anxious to check on Willow.Not that he thought anything would happen to her while Crash was watching over her.He trusted his twin completely to keep their woman safe.
Burn parked the truck, gathered the sacks, and then entered the clubhouse, tossing the truck keys to the Prospect behind the bar.The door to their room was shut and he cautiously opened it, not wanting his M.C.brothers to get an eyeful of their woman.He only saw Crash, sitting on the end of the bed watching TV, until he moved further into the room.As he shut the door, he turned and got an eyeful of Willow sleeping in the middle of the bed.She’d either never pulled up the covers or had kicked them off and her long, bare legs were something to behold.
“She been out long?”Burn asked.
“About twenty minutes.I was going to feed her before she went to sleep, but I guess she was too exhausted.I can’t even imagine what she’s been through today.The fire had to drag her down.Hell, we probably should have called doc to listen to her lungs and make sure she was okay.”
“If she’s coughing tomorrow, we’ll give him a call.Something tells me she won’t want someone poking and prodding at her right now.Not after everything she’s been through.Hell, just thinking about what those assholes did to her makes me want to hunt down the ones who escaped and torture the shit out of them.”
“At least they didn’t molest her.”
