Viper's Run Read online

  Viper was waiting for her at the bottom of the steps. When she walked to his side, he took her cane from her hand and leaned it against the bottom of the steps. Sweeping her up into his arms, he turned and went through the door that Razer was holding open with a grinning Beth by his side.

  The club parking lot was filled with motorcycles; Winter wondered which one was Viper’s. Her question was quickly answered as he strode to an oversized monster on two wheels. Placing her on her feet by the bike, he left her to find a spare helmet.

  “Be back in a second.” As she stood waiting, the other members stopped and stared at Viper’s bike. None said a word, but Winter could tell from their expressions that something was unusual about his bike to draw so much attention. When Viper reappeared from the factory, even Winter could see the flush on his cheeks in the dark.

  “What happened to your old bike? You loved that machine; you wouldn’t even let me touch it. I know you said it needed some work so you’ve borrowed my extra. Let me take a look at it, maybe I can do something with it.” Rider said, looking at Viper’s new bike with an expression of a mixture of repugnance and disgust.

  “There is no fixing it, the engine is gone. I needed a new one anyway. It was breaking down all the time,” he shrugged, helping Winter carefully onto the bike.

  “It’s a weekender’s bike,” Train said with revulsion.

  Viper threw him a hard glare and the bikers scrambled to their own rides.

  “Put on your helmet,” Viper ordered.

  Winter hesitated. “What’s a weekender’s bike?” Looking at the other bikes, she realized that none of the other bikes had a seat on the back like Viper’s. It actually looked like a small leather chair. She put on her helmet, trying to keep the tears at bay. He obviously had one installed with her in mind. The motorcycle was comfortable for her to sit on. Winter leaned forward, holding Viper around the waist as he started the engine and pulled out in the lead. She glanced sideways to see Cash with Evie at his back, who was giving her a thumbs up.

  Winter couldn’t help but enjoy the moonlight run through the mountains. It was a thing of beauty, seeing the light of the town down below and the stars above. With the wind blowing, it almost seemed as if you were flying through the sky. Viper was obviously an experienced rider, taking the twist and turns of the road as if it was second nature. Winter didn’t want the ride to end and was unhappy when Viper made a signal to Cash, expecting them to turn back to the clubhouse. They continued on for another mile before their speed changed, slowly turning into a large empty lot surrounded by huge trees.

  The bikers all got off their bikes. A few of them pulled blankets from the bags off their bikes and started to lay them on the ground. Cash went to a huge fire-pit built out of bricks. Removing a tarp covering the middle, he pulled a lighter from his pocket and within a few minutes a fire was steadily building strength.

  As the fire built in strength, something triggered and her memory finally kicked in. “This is Cash’s homestead, isn’t it?”

  Cash, who was nearby, heard her. “You recognize it?”

  “Everyone who drinks in Treepoint would recognize this spot.” Winter turned to face Cash who was standing with his arm around Evie. “When I was a little girl, my dad liked to take a drink every now and then.” Everyone listened as Winter talked. Cash had never revealed much of himself to the other members and listening to someone that was associated with him before he became a member of The Last Riders gave them a revealing insight into their friend.

  “Do you mind?” Winter questioned, before continuing the story.

  “No.” Cash gave her a twisted smile as she recalled the memories of the place where they were standing.

  “This would have been where your grandmother’s house was and I’m betting that’s her original fireplace.”

  Cash’s nod confirmed her suspicions.

  “Anyway, as I was saying, my father liked to drink, but Treepoint was dry during that time. Cash’s grandmother was our local liquor store. A car would pull in front of her house and blow their horn, once for beer, two for whiskey, and so on. Cash would always bring it outside in a brown bag. The whole transaction took about a minute. Your grandmother had it down to a fine art.” Winter said with true respect. Cash’s grandmother had been a respected woman in town, despite her bootlegging business. When the town finally went wet, she retired to a home closer to town. Winter had not seen her for the last couple of years; she had suffered a stroke becoming paralyzed.

  “How is your grandmother?” she asked.

  “Feisty and mean as ever.”

  “I was sorry to hear about her stroke.”

  Cash’s grin faded and his face became shrouded in the shadows of the trees as he took a step backwards.

  “Thanks, I’ll tell her you were asking about her.” Winter heard Beth’s soft laughter as she wrapped her legs around Razer’s waist as he carried her into the darkness of the trees. Small groups of the members were sitting on their bikes, talking and drinking beer. Several couples were lying on the blankets that had been spread around the fire and were openly making out. When Cash dragged Evie down on one, Viper’s arm went around her waist, lifting her off her feet. Her back to his chest, he walked with her into the dark woods. They didn’t go far. Winter could still make out the members in the glow of the flames.

  Viper leaned back against the tree, facing the fire so she could see the erotic sight of the members in the firelight. His hand buried itself in her hair and tilted her head back, taking her lips, his tongue slid silkily within the warmth of hers. His other hand pressed against her stomach, pressing her harder against the hardness of his cock behind his denims.

  Winter felt her desire build as Viper’s hand unzipped her jacket. When it fell open, he pushed her top down until her bra was exposed. With a twist of his fingers, the closure came undone and her breasts were exposed to the chilly night.

  “Viper…”

  “Shh… no one can see.”

  Winter tried to turn her head, but Viper claimed her mouth again as his fingers twisted an already hard nipple. A soft gasp escaped her and Viper used the opportunity to deepen his kiss. Winter’s hips began to grind back on his still covered cock. Viper’s hand left her breast to glide over her smooth stomach, unsnapping her jeans and sliding underneath to find her already wet for him. As he found her clit, teasing the small button in torturous swipes with his work roughened thumb, she was barely able to prevent herself from moaning out loud, not wanting to draw attention to them in the shadows.

  Her legs tried to close to hold his fingers exactly where she wanted them. Viper’s foot tangled with hers, preventing her from moving. Winter was about to come when Viper removed his hand and returned to her breast, tracing her nipple with his wet fingers.

  Winter was so lost in desire that it took several seconds to realize the hands sliding and pressing against her pussy couldn’t have been Viper’s, with one hand in her hair and the other on her breast. Her loosened jeans slid further down her hips with the aid of a hand helping their descent.

  Stiffening, Winter tried again to tear her mouth away from Viper as the hand explored her silken warmth. Shuddering in need with Viper’s hand squeezing the flesh of her breast from the chest up to the tip of her nipple, Winter felt as if her nipples were on fire. When he pinched her nipples, the hand that had been caressing her pussy slid a finger deep inside, stroking her with long strokes. As her hips shifted, he added another finger.

  Winter’s body was a flame of passion burning out of control, desperately needing something, but the two men had built her so high, she began to whimper in need. The hand left her aching clit and seconds later, Winter felt a wet heat licking gently against her clit. Viper released her mouth to move to her neck, biting and sucking on the soft flesh.

  “Please, I need to …” Winter stopped herself, unable to go on. She should have called a halt immediately, as soon as she felt someone else touch her body, but desire had stopped her.

/>   “You want to come?” Viper’s soft voice teased her ear.

  Winter frantically nodded her head. “I can’t hear you.” Viper sucked harder on her neck at the same time he pinched a nipple tightly.

  “Yes.” Even Winter could hear the need in her own voice. As soon as she answered, the tongue on her clit pressed down, letting her feel the cold metal ball right where she needed it most. Winter knew without a doubt who was between her legs now and it only stroked her need higher. He used the metal ball against her clit like a master, knowing just how to slide it against the inside slit of her pussy before pressing it directly on the tiny bud her clitoris protected.

  When she came, Winter felt Viper’s hand cover her mouth to prevent everyone from hearing her screams. Only when she stopped shaking did Winter feel Knox remove his mouth from her, with a final flourish that almost sent her over again.

  Viper’s hand smacked her ass hard to bring her back to reality.

  “Don’t you dare come again, you are saving the rest for me. But that’s going to have to wait until we get back to the house; my balls are freezing off out here.”

  Viper gently turned her around and fixed her bra back in place before clasping it closed. He then re-buttoned her shirt and zipped her jacket back up. It took him less than two minutes when she would have fumbled in the dark trying to put herself back together. Winter felt Knox move away as Viper redressed her.

  Once he was done, he led her back to his bike, motioning for everyone to finish their business. Cash took a bucket of water and made sure the fire was out before he mounted his bike parked next to Viper’s. Winter held on to Viper as they headed back to the club. Her conscious was screaming at her for letting things get so out of control that she had let another man put his mouth on her.

  Regret and fear stormed her senses during the ride, the wind only making the turbulence in her mind worse. When they pulled into the lot, Winter wanted to run to her car and escape back to her home and reattach herself to the life and morals she could feel slipping out of her grasp.

  She took off her helmet before climbing off the bike and stood silently staring at her car as she tried to calm her racing mind and come to a clearheaded decision. The other members left talking and laughing. When Beth would have approached with a flushed ecstatic face, Razer pulled her past them. Seeing Winter’s face, he instantly recognized that she was upset.

  Viper watched the emotions chase over Winter’s face. It was an easy situation to read. She was regretting what had taken place. Her instinct was to run, that was what Winter always tried, she hated confrontations. Her life was like a rulebook. Whenever something didn’t go as expected, she didn’t want to confront it. Instead, she would try to go around it. That method didn’t work for him anymore.

  When she thought he wasn’t attracted to her, she made excuse after excuse. All she had to do was ask, but she hadn’t. Even now, she wanted to know where they stood, but she would rather run than risk an answer she didn’t want to hear. She could face hoards of teens, face down school boards to get funding, and stand up to furious parents over their spoiled kids, but she had no confidence in herself as a woman.

  The Last Riders were a part of his life, one that he had no intention of leaving. He wanted to share it with the woman he loved. Winter was that woman. If she would just let her guard down long enough to see that he was willing to give her anything she wanted, she would stop letting her fears control her.

  Viper had fallen hard for Winter during those two years he had been searching for Gavin’s killer, but he had managed to keep from making love to her because he knew she wouldn’t be able to accept his lifestyle. When she had found out who he really was, he hadn’t been surprised she had thrown him out of her life. He had walked away. It was only seeing Beth with Razer when he realized that if Beth could accept The Last Riders, then maybe Winter could too. The difference was Beth loved Razer enough to put herself out there, to take a chance that yes, she could be hurt, but the rewards would be worth it. Beth had set a high standard, one that he needed Winter to live up to.

  “Let’s go in the clubhouse,” Viper coaxed with a soft voice.

  She took a step forward, but it wasn’t towards him, but her car.

  “Do you know what it was like when I found out you had been hurt? I thought I would give you enough time to get over being mad and then try to convince you to give me a chance. This time I thought I would show you what my life was and let you decide what you wanted. I was a mother fucker and I know that. What I didn’t know was during that two years I wasn’t showing you the real me, you were giving me a part of you and I fell for that woman. I denied it to myself until you were hurt. I went to that hospital and I couldn’t even see you. I had no rights toward you at all, you were unconscious and they wouldn’t tell me shit. I stayed at the hospital and even when you woke, you refused to see me. I wanted to hold you and let you know I would take care of you, but you never gave me a chance. I watched the day the ambulance came to take you to the rehabilitation center, unable to even say good-bye to you. I accepted all of that because I deserved it. However, I knew what I was going to do when I found out you were coming home. You know the real me now, I haven’t hidden one thing from you. Now you need to decide if you are going to stay and see where this goes or are you going to try to run every time you let your guard down?”

  “I don’t want anyone else to touch me.”

  “Then they won’t,” Viper shrugged. “That’s up to you.”

  Winter swallowed hard. “You don’t care if I fuck someone else?”

  Viper hesitated, knowing if he answered wrong that he would lose her forever, but he was going to give her the truth.

  “If it’s another member and I am there with you, then no I don’t. I’ve seen you staring at Knox and whether you want to admit it to yourself or not, you were curious about him. Was your curiosity satisfied?”

  Winter felt tears come to her eyes. He was right. She had been curious, not enough to ever act on it, just enough to wonder what it was that had all the women seeking him out. Viper wanted her, but not enough to really consider her his. She took another step towards her car.

  Viper’s hands clenched. He wanted to grab her and take her to his room and lock the door, but the decision was hers.

  “Winter, you’re missing my fucking point. I don’t fucking care if you don’t want to fuck someone else, but that doesn’t mean that you have to either. I’m saying it’s your choice. I am still going to be with you whether you participate or not.” Viper took a step toward her. “Winter, you could have stopped Knox at any time. Did you enjoy what happened?”

  “Yes,” she admitted reluctantly.

  “Then don’t get mad at yourself or me because you did. You were curious, now you’re not. You curious about anyone else?”

  “No,” she said between clenched teeth.

  “Cool. Are you ready to go in yet?”

  Winter inhaled a deep breath and prayed for patience. She was determined to get a few things settled.

  “Are you going to fuck around?” She demanded.

  “No.” Viper didn’t even hesitate in his answer. “I won’t be voting in anymore women in that way either. Even with me and Razer taking our votes out, that still leaves the six they need to become members. If I think they are worth being members, then I am willing to give my marker.” He was giving her more than he had any other woman. If she walked now, it was her choice, he couldn’t budge any further. He knew himself, what he needed, and was honest enough with himself to admit it. Winter had to do the same.

  Winter moved away from her car and finally towards him. Viper placed his arm around her pulling her close.

  “Does this mean I’m your old lady?”

  Viper laughed. “Yeah, I guess it does. But there are other names I could call you that I like better.” He picked her up and Winter’s legs wrapped around his waist as he carried her up the flight of stairs to the house. The other members were bedding down for the n
ight. Viper snagged her cane before going up to their room. Several of the bedroom doors were open and Winter buried her head in Viper’s shoulder as they walked by.

  “Sure you don’t want to pick a room to watch?”

  Winter didn’t raise her head.

  “No,” she mumbled.

  “Didn’t think so, want me to leave ours open?” He teased.

  Her scandalized answer had him wincing. “I don’t know why you’re screaming, your mouth was right by my ear.”

  “I do not want anyone watching us.” She gave him a hard stare as he took off his clothes. Her mouth watered every single time she saw his body. The women in the house were not going to be happy with her at all. His hard body with the tattoo’s made her stomach clench every single time. The sleeve and the one on his chest and abdomen only accented the muscles underneath.

  “You sure?” He stalked forward and Winter couldn’t help but take a step backward. Viper, with that predatory look was a little frightening.

  He unsnapped her jeans and slid his hand inside, finding her wet. “I think you have a little wicked in you woman.” Pulling his hand out, he maneuvered her until she was sitting on the bed. Pulling off her boots then her jeans and panties in one tug, Winter leaned back on her elbow, thrown off balance by his intensity.

  He opened the drawer of the nightstand and took out a condom. Tearing the condom open and rolling it on, he turned back to her. Winters eyes widened as he picked her up, placing her in the middle of the bed before he maneuvered himself between her thighs.

  His cock found her slit and he drove his cock inside her with one hard thrust. Winter grabbed his shoulders as his cock began pounding inside her with a series of hard thrusts. She gasped. Jerking her top up and pulling her bra down, his lips latched onto her nipple, sucking and biting the tip until it became sensitive. Her hips began thrusting back at him.

  “I don’t need another woman’s pussy when I have your tight needy one just waiting for me to fuck it.”
