Austin reached us, grinned, and leaned down to kiss me. PDA’s were of no consequence to him it would seem. “Hey, babe.”

“Hi.” I grinned at Cassidy’s expression. “Austin, this is Cassidy Dennis. Her son’s in my class.”

“Nice to meet you,” Cassidy said, reaching out her hand.

Austin shook it and smiled.

“I need to pick up Mav,” she said, but continued to stare at Austin. “Ah, it was nice to meet you,” she repeated.

“You too,” Austin said, his expression one of amusement.

“‘Bye, Dani.”

“‘Bye.”

Cassidy walked off, glanced back a few times, but managed to climb into her car and drive off without running into anything.

“She wants to meet your club,” I said.

“Excuse me?”

I nodded. “She saw you and nearly wet herself.”

Austin laughed. “I take it she’s a single mom?”

“She’s the single mom of a darling little boy named Maverick.”

“Fuck me,” he said with a groan.

“Hmm-mmm,” I droned. “Regret what you said?”

“Hell, no. That boy’s gonna get his ass kicked in middle school.”

“Not if he’s a badass. Then it won’t matter what his name is.”

Austin chuckled. “You might have a point.”

I ran my hand up his chest and stroked his neck. “Where’s your truck?”

“Oh, my beautiful little temptress,” he said, and kissed me quickly. “Your powers don’t work on me when I have the chance to ride.”

I wrinkled my nose. “Damn it! I was hoping it would rain.”

“Come on, baby. You’re gonna love it.”

“But I have all my stuff.” I lifted my bag and purse, filled with paperwork to finalize.

“Which will all fit perfectly in the saddlebags.”

“I didn’t bring a leather jacket. I don’t even own one.”

Austin grabbed my hand and grinned. “I brought one for you.”

“You did not.”

“I did, baby.”

I had no choice but to follow him to his bike. It was just as pretty in the light of day, but that didn’t mean it didn’t scare me just as much. He took my bags from me and stowed them in his saddlebags once he’d pulled out a leather jacket that looked like it was made for me.

He helped me into it, handed me thick, leather gloves, and then helped me with my helmet. Everything fit perfectly. I’d had the forethought to wear my knee-high boots, but still I was shaking when Austin threw his leg over the bike. “Climb up behind me, Dani. Watch the pipes, they can get hot.”

I craned my neck and asked, “How do I climb on?”

“Put your hand on my shoulder, foot on the peg, and throw your leg over.”

“You make it sound so easy.”

He grinned. “It is, baby. I’ve got the bike steady and I won’t let you fall.”

I licked my lips and did as he instructed. He held the bike, but looped his other hand to my waist when I climbed on to steady me. “You good?”

“No,” I squeaked.

“Arms around my waist, baby, and scoot forward, tight to my back.”

I followed his directions and felt a little more secure. He reached back and tugged on my thigh. “Pussy to my ass, babe.”

“Gross, Austin.” But I did slide further forward feeling even more secure.

“If you want to stop, yell or give me a squeeze, yeah?”

I nodded. “Okay.”

He started the bike and pulled gently out of the parking lot. I truly thought I was going to be sick, but once I got the feel of him and the bike, I began to relax. I’d ridden horses as a kid and found that if I moved with him, it was a familiar feel to riding. By the time we pulled off the freeway and onto Naito, I felt like a pro.

Austin pulled to a stop at a stoplight and grinned back at me. “You okay?”

“Yes.”

“You sure?”

“This is frickin’ fantastic,” I yelled.

He laughed. “Want to keep going?”

I nodded.

“Okay, we’ll go for a little ride, then.”

When the light turned green, he veered down a side street and drove closer to the water. We couldn’t go too far, but it was enough to put on a little speed before he pulled to a stop at a little lookout point. He guided the bike off the road and parked it, lowering the kickstand before turning off the engine. He twisted to smile at me. “You good?”

I nodded. “I think my legs are jelly, but that was amazing.”

“You want to get off for a bit, or back to my place.”

“Your place, I think. I’m a little cold.”

“You got it, baby.”

He started the bike again and I wrapped my arms around him tight as he pulled back onto the road and headed to his condo. He parked the bike, waited for me to climb off, despite my shaky legs, then he did the same and grabbed my things from his saddlebags. He helped me with my helmet and kissed me, the squeak of our leather jackets making me giggle. “I should tell my dad that the chastity belt is no longer necessary, considering leather has about the same effect.”

Austin chuckled as he took my hand and walked me to the elevator bay, where we stepped into a car and rode to the tenth floor. He led me down the hall to a door directly at the end and unlocked it. Pushing it open, he stepped back for me to precede him inside.

I walked in and was assaulted by total, complete, and utter beauty. What Austin had failed to mention was his condo was in an exclusive building with an incredible view of the water. I gravitated toward the large picture windows that spanned his living room.

I didn’t notice the hardwood floors, huge great room with fireplace, and open kitchen with granite countertops until way later in the evening. I was transfixed by the view of the water as the sun began to set.

Austin stood in front of me and unzipped my jacket, grinning as he removed it from my body as gently as he would a child. I couldn’t stop looking at the way the clouds played off the water, and was amazed that boats would be out on such a chilly day.

My phone pealed in the quiet and I grabbed my purse and slid out my phone to answer it. “Hello?”

“Hey, hon,” Emily said.

“Well, hi. How’s my favorite sister?”

She chuckled. “Doing well. You got a minute?”

“Of course.”

“Got info back on Austin.”

I glanced at him in the kitchen pulling down cooking utensils. “What did you find?”

“He was arrested when he was nineteen.”

“Yep.” I nodded. “I know.”

“Well, that’s it, sis. Nothing else is flagging. He’s a model citizen, doesn’t even have a speeding ticket.”

I don’t know why, but this news relieved me. I didn’t even realize I’d been concerned until now. “Awesome.”

“Okay, gotta help Amelia with her homework. Love you.”

“Love you too. ‘Bye.” I hung up and tapped the phone against my palm.

“Wine?” Austin asked.

I glanced at him and then back out at the water. “Yes, please.”

I heard the pop of the cork and turned toward the sound, equally as impressed with his kitchen with top of the line stainless steel appliances. He’d removed his jacket and cut and stood in just a tight thermal shirt and his signature jeans. “Who was on the phone?”

“My sister.”
