“You still know how to jerk off. Now hold me, and make me remember that I'm home.”
Savage sits next to us and runs his hand up and down my back. “You're home, kitten. You're fucking home.”

Three weeks later, everything feels like a dream. Some of it was a bad dream, like everything that happened around Stefano Fabbri, but a lot of it has been good, too. Hellfire might be a hardass, but he's given my guys time off to take care of me. The burn has faded, leaving a fresh pink stripe that might fade but will probably never go away. With all the attention I'm getting, it's hard to worry too much about it.
And it only took a day before everyone was right and we were spending an awful lot of time fucking. No regrets.
So yeah, life's good.
“You ready, kitten?” Savage sticks his head into the bathroom, then looks disappointed because I have clothes on already. “The guys are hanging out in front, so we're all good, but if you need to take a shower or anything…”
“I'm ready. If you wanted the shower scene, you should've been in here forty-five minutes ago.”
He grins. “Fair. You look fantastic, by the way.”
I think so too, but it's nice to get confirmation. Jessica and I went shopping yesterday, and along with a couple of cute tops and a pair of shorts that make my ass pop, I've also got some fancy new underwear I'm looking forward to showing the guys. They always get so excited. And that's good news for me.
“So where are you guys taking me?” I ask as I come out of the officers' building and find Poe and Crank already straddling their bikes. “And who am I riding with today?”
Poe pats the back of his bike. “Come wrap yourself around me, baby.”
I do that happily. “You guys didn't answer my other question.”
“Surprise,” Crank says with a grin. “But I think you're gonna like it.”
A couple of minutes later, we're on the highway heading out to the coast. It's a bit of a ride, but not that far, and the weather is amazing. It's a warm August, and the wind makes my ponytail flutter like a flag behind me. Clinging to Poe's back, I look past him and smile at the nearly empty highway ahead of us. Perfect.
We don't pull off until I can see the ocean and smell the salt in the air. The cliffs are high here, so we're way above the water, but after a few turns back and forth we pull off the local road and head down a winding path towards the surf. For a little bit, the view is blocked by solid rock that rises on both sides, but then we round the last turn and I gasp.
It's a cove, horseshoe-shaped and sheltered by the high cliffs around it. And between us and the open ocean, there are several more cliffs out in the water that break up the large waves coming in, leaving an area between them and us with still, crystal clear water. And there's a beach! I jump off the back of Poe's bike as soon as he stops it, kick off my shoes and socks, and then I run out into the sand, which is deep and warm. The water laps lazily at the beach's edge, and when I stick my feet in it, it's delightfully warm. It's like a little bit of paradise, and so close to the club. It took less than an hour to get here. And on top of that, we're the only ones around. I turn to face my guys who're watching me explore while grinning.
“Oh my God, this is amazing. I love it. I wish you'd warned me so I could've brought a swimsuit.”
Their grins widen. Crank peels off his cut and puts it down, then follows with his T-shirt. “You wanna know something else amazing about this place? Hardly anyone knows about it, since it's so well hidden. So fuck bathing suits.” He drops his pants and boxers with it, presenting himself exactly the way he was created, plus some dirty tattoos.
Savage and Poe shrug, and start undressing too. Are they really expecting me to go swimming naked? I look up at the cliffs, but it's so sheltered that you'd really have to be up right at the edge to see anything, even if you knew the beach was here. It's still scary.
“So imagine this. What's the worst thing that happens if someone up there happens to spot your naked ass down here? They get a little show? They'll live with that happy memory for the rest of their lives. No one's gonna come down and bother you with us here. If we can take on the Fabbris, we can deal with anyone who thinks they can get handsy. Trust me.” Poe throws his shirt aside and unbuttons his jeans. Savage is already naked. God, he looks good.
