UnLove Me - The Angels Warriors MC Complete Trilogy Box Set (32 page)

I leave Lilly’s feeling like shit. Kayla must have gotten pregnant just before Lilly, considering Kayla’s due date is in a few days. I check the time on my cell and realize I need to get to the doctor’s office before I’m late for Kayla’s appointment. She has her appointments set for later in the day so I don’t have to take off. Plus, with them being late appointments, we’re less likely to run into people we know in town.

I know I need to talk to Lilly about this; I just don’t know how.

I get to the doctor’s office and see Kayla sitting in a chair reading a magazine. “Hey, sorry I’m late,” I tell her.

She smiles. “No worries. They’re running behind a little.”

“Kayla,” a nurse calls. She puts her magazine on the table, and we get up and follow. She has Kayla pee in a cup, something about checking the protein in her urine or some shit, and leads us into an exam room. “Dr. Carson will be in soon.”

While we wait, I tell her about my visits with my mom and then Lilly. “Vincent, you need to tell her about this. If she finds out after she has the baby, it could put her into a depression. She could change completely. Trying to get her back after that will be impossible.”

“I know, okay, I know. I just don’t know how to tell her. I think, either way, she’ll hate me,” I tell her.

“But better to tell her now than later. It will hurt more later on. What if someone sees us together and tells her? Think about that.”  She gives me a harsh stare, and I shrink away from her. Pregnant women can be scary; they get this twinkle in their eye.

The doctor comes in after she says that, so I don’t get to reply. If someone else tells Lilly before I do, I will kill them. I can’t even imagine her finding out. I’m terrified just thinking about it.

The doctor looks Kayla all over and says the baby is doing great. After Kayla gets up and dresses, I tell her I’ll meet her at the house.

Once at her house, we talk about baby names, but we can’t seem to agree on one. We decided a while ago to keep the sex of the baby a secret. We want to be surprised.

“Do you know what you and Lilly are having?” Kayla asks.

“Yeah, a little girl,” I tell her.

She smiles brightly. “That’s awesome. Good luck with that.” She giggles.

I hear a bike pull into the driveway.

“Oh, Brandon’s here. You can go now. I need some alone time with him,” she says with a wink. I chuckle and leave.

Passing my brother by as I walk, I offer him a head nod. I thought it might be weird with him dating Kayla, since she’s pregnant with my kid and all, but he’s been pretty cool about it all. He hasn’t mentioned it to anyone.  He seems to make her happy, and that’s all that matters to me.

After leaving Kayla’s place, I drive to the woods. I just need some alone time. I think back on the time I ended it with Kayla for good, wanting to keep my promise to myself that Lilly and I were done with the petty bullshit.

But now, I have no one. Kayla moved on finally, and Lilly, I just don’t know how to make that shit right.

Hilary decided to go out tonight, considering her phone has been ringing off the hook like crazy. Of course, all the calls and texts are from Mason. Hilary thought it best to not be around, in case he shows up, and I don’t blame her. Mason is flippin’ scary when he’s pissed.

About an hour after she left, Mason sure enough showed up too. When he started shouting at me, saying I was a liar for saying Hilary wasn’t home, I slammed the door shut in his face and locked it. Not even five minutes later, he ended up picking the lock and storming in, searching the house for her.

I couldn’t help but be reminded of the time Vinny did that to me, when I ran from his house after the showdown with his mother.

Snapping out of the memory, I decide to text Vinny. It’s been months since we broke up over Jasper and Eden’s shit. He really can’t still be pissed with me over that. We need to get over this; I miss him. I want him back. As much as he hurt me, I am ready to make us a family—him, me, and this child.

Come over? Wanna talk.

A second later I get a text.

K, be there soon

Smiling, I sit outside on my bottom step and wait for him.

When I get the text from Lilly, I rush from my spot in the woods to go to her. It’s just one night. We’ll put aside all our problems for one night.

I pull into her driveway and see her sitting on the bottom step.

“Hey,” she says quietly.

“Hey, Lilly-pad,” I say warmly.

I pull her up and crash my mouth down against hers. Fuck, I have missed her kisses, her tongue dancing with mine.

Pulling away, she looks at me. “Inside,” she says, sounding out of breath.

I lead her to the bed we used to share, needing nothing more than to get lost inside of her. I don’t waste any time stripping her bare. The sight of Lilly lying on the bed has my dick ready to give her a full salute. The curves her body now has from being pregnant with my child are so beautiful it mother fuckin hurts.

There is an ache inside my chest. I’m hurting for all the pain I have caused her. Taking my cut off, I hang it on the bed post.  I kick off my boots and slip out of my jeans, then slide my shirt over my head and snake across the bed until I’m facing Lilly. God, I wish she were still mine. I run my hands over her naked torso, gently caressing her round stomach with my lips.

Knowing we made a baby together and seeing her round with my child nearly brings me to tears. I wanted this so badly with her, to have a family and be happy.  Lilly is looking at me with those beautiful brown eyes, wanting me just as much. Does she know how sorry I am, how I would give just about anything to make it right?

“Stop thinking and make love to me, Vinny. I need this. I want this right now. Please.”

“Lilly, I don’t want to hurt you or the baby. Do you think this is a good idea?” I want her, I do, but I want her to be sure.

“It’s perfectly fine. I don’t have any restrictions. Is it a good idea? Probably not, but we need this. Give me this, Vinny. Give me this tonight.”

My lips collide with hers. There is no denying the heat between us. Making love to Lilly Is like nothing else on this earth.  It’s a bit awkward at first, trying to find the position that is most comfortable for her. I’m spooning her from behind as she lies on her left side.  Slowly, she guides me into her slick heat with ease—fucking heaven. I nearly come at first contact with her tight pussy. It was made for loving my dick. I’ve been without this feeling, this connection to her, for far too long.

*~*

My phone pinging with text messages is what wakes me up. I gently move Lilly off of me. “What is it?” she says quietly, lifting up from the bed.

“Nothing, just a few texts,” I say, checking the phone. They’re all texts from Kayla. I decide for right now to ignore her, to just be in this moment with Lilly.

“I have something else to confess,” Lilly says hesitantly.

I stiffen around her. “What?”

“I don’t want any more secrets or lies between us, and this is the last one I have. I figure, it’s no longer a secret anymore, at least I don’t think it is, but you should know that Eden came back years ago, three months after she left, to tell him she was pregnant.”  

“What?” I say, bolting out of the bed. “Tell me everything,” I demand.

Lilly’s face pales. “I didn’t know until later, but she went to the club, because she was told that’s where Jasper was. And, well, she saw him with Monica,” she says quietly.

“Fuckin’ hell, Angel thought he was fuckin’ hallucinating that shit.”

I don’t bother saying anything to her as I finish getting my clothes on and leave, ignoring the protests of Lilly trying to talk to me.

I need to tell Angel this shit. It might help to fix his and Eden’s relationship, and honestly, I needed to get the hell out of there. Her confession had me feeling like a real scumbag. She’s been upfront, came clean about everything, and look at me. I’m a bigger liar than she ever thought about being. Lilly lied to protect Eden’s secret. I’m lying to cover my own ass.

“I don’t think this plan is a good idea,” I tell her.

“Doesn’t matter. It needs to get done,” she says.

“Yeah, but no one is together. I doubt they will care if we do this.”

“It will be done, and if it isn’t, well, you will have to go,” she says, sneering at me.

“Fuck, woman, I’m telling you I don’t think it will work.”

“Trust me, it will. There is no other way. No matter what we seem to do, it doesn’t shake them. Something big needs to happen. I expect it done,” she says as she gets up from her seat and walks away.

Fuck, this won’t work. Shit is bad between these guys. I doubt this plan of hers will work, but to make her happy and to get her off my back before she kills me, I’ll do it. Bitch is cold and evil.

Pulling up to the clubhouse, I notice Angel’s truck is here. He’s been riding around in that more than his bike lately, because he likes to be able to get his kids whenever he can.

I shut off the engine and walk into the clubhouse, and see him sitting on the couch. “Hey, man, gotta talk to ya,” I tell him, and move to his office.

He follows slowly behind me and shuts his door. “What’s up?” he asks, looking worried.

“Remember that time you dreamt about Eden coming back?” I start.

“Yeah, man,” he says.

“It wasn’t a fuckin’ dream. She really was here,” I tell him and wait for him to blow up.

“What?” he whispers out. “No, it can’t be real.”

“Yeah, Lilly confessed that shit to me this morning. She came back for you, man, came to be with you. She came to tell you she was pregnant.” I lay it all out.

He picks up the frame on his desk of him and Eden, and smashes it against the wall. He nearly splits his hand open with the glass. “Fuck! No wonder she didn’t want shit to do with me when she came back, after seeing me fuckin’ high and fuckin’ Monica in front of her. Shit!” he shouts.

“Calm down, man,” I tell him. “Fuck, this isn’t easy, but while we’re confessing shit, I should tell you this.”

“What? What more could you possibly tell me?” Angels asks.

Reaper comes behind me, almost as if bracing for something bad to happen.

“I knew about the twins,” I blurt out. Before I can even brace for a reaction, I’m on the floor with a busted lip.

“When? When the fuck did you find out?” Angel yells.

“Angel, fuck, simmer,” Reaper says with a growl, holding him back.

“The night we left Eden’s place when she first came back, I found a safe in Lilly’s house, opened it, and found pictures. I didn’t think that shit should come from me, okay, fuck!” I throw my hands up.

“Fuck, I want…” Jasper stops short and punches the wall next to my head. “You should have fucking told me.” He shakes his head, anger rolling from his shoulders as he cracks his neck.

“Need to calm down, brother,” Reaper tells him smoothly.

“Alright.” Jasper shrugs Reaper off and doesn’t bother looking at me as he storms out of the office.

“What the fuck else you hiding, man? You know something about Hilary you haven’t told me? Huh, fucker?” Reaper knocks my beanie off, and I shake my head as I’m looking at the floor. I can’t seem to do a damn thing right.

“Come on, let’s grab a beer.” He nods and walks out the door.  I follow, taking him up on that. Today has been fucked.
