Forge scrubbed a hand down his face. “Five minutes. Make sure you don’t kill him.”
Luther was off-site, but Hank was the one who had really gotten under his skin. Dog still remembered him breathing all over his woman, touching her, getting way too close for comfort. He’d use his five minutes well.
“Don’t leave me.” Sable wrapped her arms tight around his neck as he carried her up the stairs. He was torn—comfort his old lady or knock the snot out of that asshole. The fury within him settled as he looked into her dark eyes.
He had her back. That was what really mattered. She was his future. Together, they’d make a family, and they’d both love their kids how parents should.
When they got back to the foyer, many brothers still on guard, he made eye contact with Hank. “Baby, it’s just five minutes, then I’m all yours.”
“He’s not worth it, Dog.”
He brought her to the front doors where there was a large bench seat. He set her down and knelt on one knee in front of her, gathering her hands in his. “I’ve never been more scared, baby. I hated you doing that recon. It tore me apart every day. But this, knowing you’d been taken, it tore me apart on the inside. I never felt such desperation.”
“He told me you’d never come for me. I know he wanted me to believe it—I never did.”
“I’ll always come for you, baby.”
They kissed and it felt like heaven. She completed him, the light to his darkness. They kissed harder, deeper, and he didn’t give a fuck who was watching. As soon as he got her home, he was going to claim her again and again. He wanted to give her pleasure, to hear her cries echoing in this room.
“That’s perfect. You can head back to the club and suck cock for the rest of your life,” said Hank.
The jealous little shit. Dog turned his head and glared at the fucker. His body wanted to act, every muscle tensed and ready, but he needed to put Sable first. She wanted him to be the better man and walk away.
He turned back to her.
“Okay, big boy, five minutes.”
Chapter Twelve
Arriving back at the clubhouse, Sable was surrounded by the club brothers, and her sister came running toward her.
At first, Dog grabbed her sister’s arm and tried to hold her back, but Sable stopped him. She wrapped her arms around her sister, holding her close. If there was a chance to mend their relationship, she was willing to forgive and forget.
“I was so scared. I didn’t know what to do,” Honey said.
“It’s fine.”
“No, it’s not. I said all of those horrible mean things to you, and it wasn’t fair of me. I’m so sorry.” Honey cried as she spoke.
Sable didn’t feel like crying. Other than being taken and the overall fear of what might be, she would survive. She believed right from the start Dog would rescue her and she’d been right.
He’d come right on time.
Sure, fear had taken her for a short time, but it didn’t mean she was going to allow it to completely control her.
Being back within the clubhouse made her feel safe, joyous, and happy.
She moved away from her sister and Dog immediately pulled her up. His knuckles were bloody from the five minutes he’d spent alone with Hank. She didn’t mind. There had been a lot of wounds she’d cleaned up for him over the years. The club whistled and clapped their hands.
“Fuck off, guys,” he said.
“Well, excuse me for wanting to see my friend,” Beth said.
Dog groaned, resting his head against Sable’s “It would seem a lot of people were afraid you were dead,” he said.
“I like it. It means I’ve got a place here.”
It was funny how things had a way of working themselves out. After she came home from being sent away from the club, things didn’t feel the same, but now she realized everything could go back to normal.
“You’ve always got a place. Don’t ever forget it. You’re here to stay, always.” He sank his fingers into her hair, pulling her close and smashing his lips against hers. She melted against him, loving the feel of him and not wanting him to stop. “I won’t ever let anything happen to you. Not again.”
She giggled against his mouth but was pulled away into Beth’s open arms. Her friend hugged her until she couldn’t really breathe.
Forge intervened. “She’s alive. No need to behave like that.”
“Yes, but he was a cop. Do we all need to worry? Do we need to like leave the country?” asked Beth. She was still not fully accustomed to club life, and it was endearing.
Sable stepped back to press against Dog. They wouldn’t be leaving the country. There was no need to as Hank wasn’t going to be a problem, nor was Grass. They were both embarrassments to the police department. Their replacements easy to find. She had no doubt someone would be guarding the streets, threatening them. Or if they knew what was good for them, they’d learn to look the other way for a price.
