SALLY

After giving me a look that had me tightening my thighs together, Bones turned on his heels without saying a single word. I watched him push open the bathroom door and flip on the light, though I couldn't see inside with the way the doorways were situated. I heard the water turn on and some rustling going on. As I listened to the sounds of the motorcycle club president preparing to help me shower, my body heat began to rise to uncomfortable levels. All I could do while trying to regulate my breathing was fantasize about how involved he would be.

I watched him leave the bathroom without looking in my direction and stomp in his heavy boots back down the short hallway to the living room. The anticipation of what was to come next was killing me. I could hear the water running in the bathroom, and steam was starting to billow out into the hall. He didn't leave me waiting for long.

Bones walked back into my room carrying a suitcase. With only a quick, heated glance up and down my body, he tossed the suitcase on the bed and flipped it open. I watched as he dug through the clothes he had half-haphazardly thrown inside an hour ago. I bit my lip as I eyed him, wanting to tell him to stop, knowing he was sorting through my underwear, but he'd already seen the plain cotton panties and bras. I only had a couple of nice, lacey bras. They were ones I'd snatched up on clearance when I had gone to a sale at one of the lingerie stores near where I used to work.

Finally, he held up one of my only cute nightgowns. Even that one was just cotton with flowers on it. But the material was soft and one of my favorites. I noticed he didn't grab a change of panties before he turned to me. He tossed the nightgown in my lap, and before I could do more than put a hand on the material, he bent down and scooped me back into his arms. I would never say it out loud, but I was getting really comfortable being carried by his strong arms. I certainly wouldn't have any problems being toted around by him for the rest of my life.

It honestly took all my self-control not to snuggle in and lay my head against his strong shoulder. Bones may appear to be a murderous asshole with no conscience, but there was much more under the surface. All of his glares and growls never stopped him from trying to help me, and he never hesitated to save me from the guy who wanted to do more than just hurt me.

We stepped into the bathroom, the heavy steam immediately coating my body in slick moisture. I glanced over to the open shower curtain, surprised to see a plastic lawn chair in the tub. I jerked my gaze back to Bones.

"When did you bring a chair in here?"
