Chapter Twenty-Two

Gwen…

While Noah starts clearing up the breakfast things, on automatic pilot I start sorting out the clothes I need to wash. My mind is racing. I seem to have fallen into a dream world, and more than once, pinch myself.

I make the phone call to Everest, letting him down gently. When he tries to rearrange our date, I tell him an approximation of the truth, that an old boyfriend has re-emerged and that he wants to make a go of things. I listen carefully to his reaction, but he sighs. When he admits he’s disappointed, but wishes me every happiness and assures me things will not be awkward at work, I very much doubt he could be the one who attacked me and violated my house. But without an alternative, I have to accept Noah’s right, and nothing and no one can be discounted.

I don’t have a second thought about turning a date with a professional man down in preference to spending time with Noah. Deep down I know I’m doing the right thing. I’ve been attracted to Noah for years. Having been offered the moon, there’s no way I’m going to be giving up the chance to see where a relationship with him leads, even if there’s a small part of me that’s concerned he’ll soon get bored.

I’m so excited about going to the compound, not as a victim who’s been attacked and needs care and sympathy, but on the arm of the man I’m fast coming to, let’s be honest, like a hell of a lot and maybe even love.

What will Lisa say? I’m sure she’ll be happy when she gets over the shock. I’ve no worries about seeing his mom, Darcy’s already been lovely to me. I hadn’t had much to do with his dad over the couple of days that I stayed, but that was because I’d been laid up hurting and resting. Now I’m to meet his MC brothers. It’s scary to think about being thrust into his extended family. I’m not particularly extrovert, and I worry they won’t like me.

How do I act? I’ve never been in that situation before. When I’d once been fostered into a family which already had children, I’d learned to be seen and not heard. I’d had more than my fair share of bullying on the principle I hadn’t belonged, on the compound I’ll be an outsider again.

Noah will be with me. He won’t let anyone hurt me.

One thing that doesn’t worry me is the principle of going onto a biker compound. I’ve met a few of the bikers during my shifts at the Wheel Inn, and so far, have been exposed to nothing that concerns me. I also have a lot of respect for Tash and read her as a woman who wouldn’t put up with stuff she didn’t feel comfortable with. It’s just they’re a family, and I’ve no experience to draw on of being a part of one.

When I finish up my chores, I decide to look forward positively and enjoy this day with Noah.
