Chapter 20

Bailey

I climbed off Moody's bike and went inside the bar without saying a word to him. The man was impossible. Impossible to like, impossible to ignore, and it was an impossible combination, because we were living under the same roof for the time being. The apartment that I shared with Holly wasn't all that big, and he wasn't making things easy for me. When he'd come home the night before, I hadn't been sure whether to put him in Holly's room or mine, but he'd taken the decision out of my hands and chosen the couch. That had created a whole other problem when I’d gotten up that morning and had walked to the kitchen wearing hardly anything, forgetting that he was there.

I can't say that the way his dark eyes had looked me over hadn't done something meaningful to my libido. Everything about Moody was intense, and knowing that his eyes were following me kept me in a state of arousal. Knowing what he was capable of making me feel when he touched me in that rough, possessive way that he had wouldn't leave my thoughts. It was as if he'd given me a taste of an addictive drug, and now I was having withdrawals.

He was like no other man I'd ever known before.

I walked straight into the bar, knowing that Moody was right behind me, probably watching my ass. Since I was forced to ride behind him on his bike, any kind of skirt or dress had been out of the question, so I'd shimmied my way into my tightest skinny jeans and a white, eyelet blouse with a scooped neckline that buttoned down the front. It was sexy and one of my favorites, and I knew it drew the eye to the exposed curve of my collarbone. I'd pulled my hair up into a messy bun, made messier by the ride there, and adorned my ears with feathered earrings that dangled.

The bar was already busy, and I acknowledged the whistles and cat calls with a smile of tolerance, accepting it for what it was. It was a biker bar after all, and I'd learned early on that most of the men were just harmless flirts. Tommy had warned me which ones to avoid in the beginning. I wished he'd been able to warn me about Martin. I couldn't help but look for him once I settled behind the bar, wondering if he was there, and hiding in the crowd or tucked away in a dark corner.

Watching me.

"Welcome back," Tommy said, offering me a hesitant smile.

I met his eyes, smiling in return. "Thank you. Are you still mad at me?"

Surprise flashed across his face. "I wasn't mad at you. I was disappointed."

I could understand that. "Do you know what happened?"

He nodded. "Yeah, boss explained it to me later. I'm glad you and Holly are okay."

"Thanks to Moody," I mumbled beneath my breath. "Has, ah, Martin been back since that night?"

Tommy shook his head.

Good, I thought. Maybe he was gone.
