Adley wondered if they were trying to leave the house to her and Justice. If so, she’doffer to do whatever her mom needed for the next month if it meant she and Justice could be alone with a bed.
“Thanks, Mom,” Justice said, leaning over to kiss Ian on the forehead. “You be good for Mimi. Love you, buddy.”
Was there anything hotter than a big, strong man being soft and sweet with his child? Adley worried she’d burst into flames if they stayed there and she had to watch the man she wanted with every fiber of her being cuddle his son. Was she crazy to wonder if Ian could be her son too? She was probably jumping ahead so many steps, but Ian was special to her too. She wasn’t sure how, but he was. She leaned over and kissed his hand.
“Night, Ian,” she whispered.
Justice and she said their goodbyes and walked out the door. Adley dearly hopedMacy and Tack weren’t planning on coming back to the house, but if they were, they might need earplugs. Adley wasn’t going to be the woman who weighed every decision. She didn’t believe her mom would have stayed today if she’d had any sense that the Saint’s Outlaws MC couldn’t be trusted.
A shiver traveled down Adley’s spine at the touch of Justice’s hand on her back as they walked up the stairs and into the house. Justice closed the door and slid the lock home. Adley stared into Justice’s eyes and hoped he was thinking the same thing she was because she wasn’t sure she was brave enough to ask him for what she wanted without an indication from him.
His hands cupped her face, and his face came close. “We can just spend time together, or you can say yes.”
“Yes to what?”
“Yes to being with me. Yes to me worshipping every inch of your body and claiming you for my own. Yes to taking the first step to forever together.”
“Forever?” she asked softly.
Justice grinned at her, dropping a kiss on her nose.
“Adley, I’m in my fifties and past the point of just a random hookup. You’re the woman I want to spend time with. You’re the one I see as Ian’s mother down the road. If you don’t see a future with me, please tell me before I get any more invested than I am,” he pleaded with her.
“Justice, I see a future with you, but I worry you’ll think less of me when you know everything,” Adley said.
“Honey, there isn’t anything that you could say that would make me turn fromyou. If you want to spill your secrets now, I’ll listen. If you want to wait, then I’ll wait. You’re the woman for me. I love your sass and fierce nature. You fight for what’s right with your clients, and I know that you’d fight the same for our family. But it’s all up to you—if you’re not ready, we’ll watch a show or go back to the clubhouse and play some pool. I’ll need to spend a little time in the bathroom taking care of an issue first, but I want whatever you want,” Justice said.
Adley leaned closer, brushing her mound against Justice’s hardness between them.
“If you really don’t care about knowing my secrets, then I say yes. Yes to a future with you. Yes to wanting to be a family because I’ve watched you, too. I tried to resist the hot biker with tattoos who fights as fiercely for his family and his clients, too.I knew if we were ever in close quarters, I’d never be able to resist because I’ve been attracted to you from the first,” Adley said.
Justice smirked, then picked Adley up, tossing her over his shoulder and striding down the hall.
“Justice,” Adley squeaked.
Chapter Sixteen
Justice grinned at Adley’s sound when he tossed her over his shoulder. After their meeting, he didn’t think he’d be smiling, but every minute with Adley gave him a new outlook on life.
He carried her into his bedroom, then let her slide ever so slowly down his torso, her breasts brushing against his chest. He stared into her eyes and knew after tonight everything would be changed.
He’d waited what had seemed a lifetime for this woman to come into his life. Her sass and her passion for helping people were only part of the package that set his heart onfire. He brushed her face with the backs of his fingers, then slid them down, ghosting across her chest, mapping each curve she had. Her breathing picked up, and he was positive she wanted him to get a move on, but he was taking his time, savoring their first time. With him having an infant, their next time might have to be rushed, but not this time.
He dropped to his knees and lifted her shirt up to kiss along her belly, nipping and touching as he moved up to her bra. He slid his hand around and unhooked it, sliding the cups up along with her shirt. Adley raised her arms above her head to help him. He cupped her breasts, leaning close to nip and taste.
“You’re fucking gorgeous, Honey,” he said. She trembled again. He smirked because he liked making her tremble. Hetouched and tasted her silky skin and laved her nipples until they were hard peaks. Her fingers grabbed his hair, pulling him back.
“I want you, Justice,” she said.
“Zane, I figure you should know the first name of the man you’re taking inside you,” Justice whispered.
Adley’s stomach shook against him. He glanced up at her, smiling down at him.
“I know your name. I know a lot about you, but I thought you only wanted to be called Justice,” Adley said cheekily.
“How about you call me whatever you want when I have you screaming my name?” he said, then unbuttoned Adley’s jeans, sliding the zipper down and tugging her panties down with his teeth.
“You’re going to need to make some effort if you want me to scream,” Adley said, grinning at him.
