“They are both drugged.” He shrugged his shoulders. They climbed into the car and turned the car around.
T: New plan, trap the men. Two of them. They want to sell Jasmine with her son. We’re gonna need the info on the buyer. They’re armed.
S: Got it. Nate there?
T: Hoping so, brother.
I slipped my phone back into my pocket and hurried towards the house, I was cautious just in case there were any other people around. It seemed quiet, I tried opening the front door and to my surprise it wasn’t locked. Were these guys idiots? I slowly crept into the house, they said they were both drugged. Did he have more than one kid here? I searched through the living room and kitchen downstairs but there was no sign of anyone. I looked at the stairs and headed towards them. I took each step carefully, and I had my gun in my right hand just in case I needed it. Once I reached the landing, I glanced between all four doors. Which one first? I turned right first, door one was empty, as was doors two and three. Once I got to door four, I took a deep breath and pushed at the handle. Shit, it was locked. I stood back, raised my foot and kicked it open. As soon as I walked inside, I heard screaming and saw in the shadows someone running at me. I managed to side step out of their way and push them into the wall, aiming my gun at their face.
“Please don’t hurt me,” she whimpered. I flicked the light on and the room came to light. Standing in front of me was a small, red headed woman. Her clothes were crumpled and dirty.
“Who are you?” I demanded.
“Eden.” I glanced around the room and that was when I saw him. Nathan was laying asleep on the bed.
“What are you doing here?”
“They kidnapped me.”
“If I let you go, are you going to do anything stupid?” She shook her head quickly. I released her, tucked my gun back away and ran over to Nathan. I tried shaking him awake but he stayed sleeping.
“They drugged him so he would stay asleep. They gave me some too but not enough.” I picked Nathan up and held him against my chest. I hurried out of the door and down the stairs. “Please, take me with you,” she pleaded.
“You don’t know anything about me, I could be worse than them.”
“No, you’re not. I can tell that by the way you’re holding that boy. Is he yours?”
“No, a friend of mine.”
“Please,” she begged. I couldn’t leave her here.
“Fine, the car is up the road. We need to hurry.” We both rushed up the lane as quickly as possible. Once we were by the car, I settled Nathan on the back seat.
“I’ll sit with him in the back.” She climbed in and pulled Nathan close to her side. I started up the car and got the hell out of there. I dialled Prez’s number.
“Tyler?”
“Yeah, I got him, Prez. I got Nathan. He’s been drugged.”
“Bring him here, I’ll get the doc here. How far away are you?”
“Fifteen minutes tops.”
“Good work, prospect.”
I exhaled a sigh of relief knowing that Jasmine would be reunited with her son very soon.
Chapter 12
Solar
I paced back and forth in the bar area of the clubhouse. I wanted to be one of the guys going to Jasmine’s house but she begged for me to stay with her. I wanted to beat them to a pulp knowing they were coming for Jasmine. Instead, Iron, Toes and Jono went.
“Solar?” Prez called out from the doorway of his office. I looked at him and he threw me a chin lift telling me he wanted to talk. I ambled in his direction and once his office door was closed, he said, “Tyler has Nathan.” A sigh of relief left my body as I fell into the chair in front of his desk, resting my head in my hands. I was so relieved that Nathan would be back with Jasmine but I hated the ache in my chest that meant I would no longer get to see her every day and comfort her.
“The doc is on his way to check him over. He’s been drugged. My guess would be a sleeping drug to keep him quiet.”
“Thanks, Prez, I’ll go and deliver the good news.”
“You ok?” He stopped me with a hand on my shoulder.
“Yeah. I’m just glad he’s safe.” I walked out of Prez’s office and into the bar. Jasmine was sitting next to Tanya, Tyler’s girlfriend; ex-girlfriend. Hell, I didn’t really know who she was.
“Flower,” I said quietly. She looked at me with hope in her eyes. I grabbed her hand and led her to the bar, lifting her up onto one of the stools so she was now my height. She automatically parted her legs for me to stand in between. “Nathan’s safe. Tyler will be here with him in a minute.” She sobbed and threw her arms around my neck, almost knocking me off balance. She sobbed her heart out on my shoulder and I ran a soothing hand up and down her back. “Flower, he’s been drugged so he’ll be asleep once he gets here. The doc is on his way to check him over.” She nodded against my neck. “You ok?”
“Thank you.” She kissed me on the lips, briefly. “Thank you.” She kissed me again. “Thank you so much.” She kissed me once more, leaving her lips to linger longer this time. The noise from the club doors opening had us pulling apart. Jasmine shoved at my chest, jumped off the stool and ran towards Tyler.
“Nathan?” She cried. Tyler passed him over and Jasmine held him close to her chest. I wrapped my arms around them both, holding her up as her legs wobbled.
“Let’s get him to the doc’s room,” Prez ordered. I led Jasmine down the hall until we were stopped outside the second door. I pushed it open and waved her inside, leaving the door open. She sat down on the small sofa and cradled Nathan to her.
“You ok, flower?”
“I am now.” She smiled as tears rolled down her cheeks.

Jasmine
While the doc was examining Nathan, he stirred awake. I hadn’t left his side yet and I wanted to be the first person that he saw when he woke up.
“Mum?” He smiled and his voice was groggy.
“Hi, baby. I missed you.” I pulled him into my arms and squeezed him tight.
“Hey, doc, when you’re done can you check over…” Tat’s voice had me looking up.
“I said I’m fine. I just want to go home.”
“Eden?” I said in surprise.
“Jasmine? What are you doing here?”
“Hi, Eden,” Nathan said, waving his hand.
“Is this your son?” Eden asked, coming into the room. Her long red hair was tangled and messy, her clothes were crumpled and dirty. Her usually pale skin somehow looked even paler and her green eyes were filled with worry.
“Yeah,” I answered. Eden worked at the same school as me; she was the secretary to the head mistress.
“Oh my god.” She sobbed coming further into the room and throwing her arms around me. “I’m so sorry. I looked after him the best that I could. They never hurt him, I promise.”
“Wait, was you there too? With him?” I looked over my shoulder to see that Solar was talking to Nathan. I moved us over to the corner of the room. Tat stayed close to us for some reason.
“Yeah, I made the horrible mistake of talking to this guy online. He contacted me through a dating app. I was lonely, you know?” I nodded. I completely understood that. “Anyway, I met him for a drink and he dragged me back to that house, threw me into a room and then two days later, Nathan turned up.”
“Who was the guy, red?” Tat asked.
“My name is Eden. Why do you keep calling me that? His name was Patrick, Patrick Dane.” I didn’t miss the spark in Tat’s eye when she spoke back to him. He liked it; he liked her.
“Where’s your son?” I asked.
“He’s with his dad.”
“You’re married?” Tat growled.
“No, we broke up two years ago. Do you really think that I’d go and meet a guy if I was married?”
“I don’t know you, red. Not yet.” He crossed his arms over his chest and smiled at her. She huffed out of frustration but didn’t let her eyes leave his. Those two needed to get
a room. I headed back towards my guys, my steps faltered. My guys? They weren’t both mine. Though I wanted them to be.
“Mum, Solar said he’s got a Harley. Can I see it?”
“Not tonight, bud. Maybe another time?” I looked at him and then Solar and they both nodded their heads. “Come on, let’s get you home. That’s ok, right?” I asked looking between Solar and Prez.
“I’ll stay with you,” Solar said, picking up Nathan. As we passed through the bar, I stopped and ran over to Tyler. I threw my arms around his neck.
“Thank you so much for finding him.”
“You’re welcome. I’m glad he’s safe.” Tyler patted my back and I stepped away as I heard a growl coming from behind us. I glanced over my shoulder to see Solar glaring at Tyler. What was his problem? I swear my ovaries skipped a beat as I strutted back towards a sexy looking Solar carrying my son. He opened up his spare arm for me and I cuddled into his side as we walked out of the club and over to my car.
***
Solar had insisted he drove my car home so I used the time to call my parents to let them know the great news. Nathan fell back to sleep in the back seat of the car and once we arrived at my house, Solar carried him inside and into his bedroom. I changed him into pyjamas and tucked him in.
“I love you, sweet boy.” He was right where he was meant to be. My heart was full of joy again. I slipped out of his room and closed his door tight. Solar was leaning on the wall opposite Nathan’s room, next to my open bedroom door. My heart was full of love and my body was pumped full of adrenaline. I sashayed towards Solar, noticing how his eyes dropped to my breasts. He went to walk closer towards me but I pushed at his chest until he was back against the wall. I trailed my hand up his chest until it was gripping the back of his neck. I rose onto my tiptoes as I pulled his head down and kissed him, hard. Within seconds he pulled me off my feet and I wrapped my legs around his waist and he had me pinned up against the wall. Our lips fought for dominance, our tongues battled for control and once his lips started trailing down my neck I gave in to him.
“You sure you wanna do this?” he asked.
“Yes. Bedroom. Now,” I said between pants. He gripped hold of my bum and carried me in and shut the door quietly behind him. I was nibbling at his neck and knew how much he was loving it as his hardness grew more and more between my legs. He threw me on the bed and I yelped as I wasn’t expecting it. He grabbed my boots, one in each hand, and yanked them off, followed by my socks. As he kicked his boots off, I scooted to the edge of the bed and knelt up on it, pushing his jacket off his shoulders. He caught it down by his forearms and placed it on the chair in the corner of my room. I pushed his t-shirt up his body, revealing his toned stomach and chest. Tattoos covered his entire chest and both arms. I ran my fingers over them as I looked him in the eyes. He was watching me with a smile on his face. He pushed my hair off my shoulders, gripped my face in his large hands, which caused his arms to bulge, and kissed me softly, his hands lowered as he pulled my jumper and t-shirt up my body together; we pulled apart as the clothing got in the way. I went for his belt as he went for mine; I was eager to feel him. I pulled his jeans open and dipped my hand inside, gripping him. His breath caught in his throat and a deep groan rumbled up through his chest. He unclipped my bra and pushed me back to pull it off my arms. I was about to complain when he pulled me closer and wrapped my arms around his neck. He gripped hold of my sides and lifted me off my knees and placed me on my back. He kicked off his jeans and boxers and crawled up the bed. He was the most gorgeous man I had ever seen, ever touched. He stripped me of my jeans and underwear and I was finally bare to him.
“So fucking gorgeous, flower.” He loomed over the top of me and rewarded me with a bruising kiss. I trailed my hands all over his back, arms and chest. Anywhere I could touch him, I did. He started trailing kisses down my body; I loved the way his beard tickled me as he went. He stopped to rain attention over my breasts and nipples. I was panting for him, the way he played my body was like magic. He had me just the way he wanted me.
“Solar, please,” I begged. He stopped, raised his head to look at me.
“Aiden. When we’re alone you call me Aiden.” I nodded my head. “Now I want to taste you.” He pushed my legs open even further and dipped his head. Kissing and nibbling on the inside of my thighs. I could feel myself getting wetter and with one swipe of his tongue, I almost came. He held my hips still as he licked and nibbled away at me. I hooked one leg over his shoulder and pulled him even closer. He chuckled at my eagerness and the vibrations set me off. My back bowed off the bed and I pushed him away with my foot on his shoulder. I crooked my finger at him and he grabbed a condom out of his jeans pocket. Once he was kneeling in between my legs, I eagerly watched him secure the condom over his long length. I sat up and grabbed the back of his neck; if his hair was longer, I would have fisted it but he kept it quite short. I pulled him down on top of me and licked my juices from his lips. When I groaned in pleasure, he wasted no time and pushed inside of me, one glorious inch at a time. Fuck, he felt good; he stretched me until I was full.
“Fuck, flower, you feel so good,” he grumbled. I hooked my left leg over his hip and widened my other one out to the side so he could slide in deeper.
“Aiden,” I panted. He got what I was trying to say. He hooked one hand underneath my neck and plucked my nipple with the other one as he withdraw and pushed back in slowly. He did this several times, the heat from our bodies mixed and I was soon begging for him to go faster. Our bodies moved together, my hands gripped his sides as he came up onto his hands to hover above me.
“Yes!” I cried out as he hit the spot over and over again before grunting out his release and falling on top of me. We didn’t move for what felt like ages and when he withdrew from me, I hated the emptiness he left behind. He fell beside me on the bed, yanked the condom off, tied a knot in the end and threw it in my bin in the corner of my room. I was still breathless when he picked me up to move the duvet out from under us. He crawled back into the bed with me, pushed me onto my side and pulled me back until my bum was against his now soft cock and his hand encased my breast.
“Night, Flower.”
“Goodnight, Aiden.”
Chapter 13
Solar
I woke up to the delicious smell of bacon and eggs. Shit, how long had I been asleep? I glanced at the clock on Jasmine’s bedside table to see that it was only seven-thirty, but this was late for me. Normally I’d be awake by six. I threw the duvet off and walked to the end of the bed to find my clothes; they weren’t where I had kicked them off last night. I turned around as the bedroom door opened.
“Morning.” Jasmine smiled as she sashayed over to me, stood on her tiptoes and kissed me.
“Morning, flower. Um, where are my clothes?” She pointed at the chair in the corner of the room and there were my clothes all folded neatly besides my leather cut. I strolled over to retrieve them and began dressing, realising that I still had an audience. “How long have you been up?”
“A little while. I wanted to check on Nate. He’s still asleep.”
“Mum!” he called out and she went running out of her room and into his with panic crossing her face. I strolled out of Jasmine’s room and as I passed Nate’s bedroom, I heard him say; “I wasn’t sure where I was but I’m glad I’m home.”
“You want some breakfast? Solar’s here too.”
“Is he your boyfriend?”
“Um, he’s looking out for us for a little while.” I hurried into the kitchen and flicked the switch to turn the kettle on and sat at the kitchen table while I waited for it to boil.
“Solar!” Nate shouted as he ran full speed at me, stopping just before he got to me.
“Hey, dude, you ok?” He looked over his shoulder and leant closer to me.
“Mum worries a lot. I’m ok.”
“You sure about that?” He nodded and sat at the table. “You’re a bright kid.” I ruffled his hair and he pushed me away.
“What are you two whispering about?” Jasmine asked as she strolled around the corner.
“Boys stuff,” Nate answered. “I’m hungry.”
“Here we go. A nice breakfast for my two boys.” She laughed as she placed a plate of bacon and scrambled eggs in front Nate and a full English in front of me.
“What are you having?” I asked as I cut up my sausages and dipped them in the egg yolk.
“Just a smoothie.” She held up a glass full of some green shit.
“Why are you drinking that sh… stuff?”
“I need to lose a bit of weight.” She shrugged her shoulders.
“No, you don’t.”
“Yeah I do.” I was about to argue again when Jasmine’s mum, dad and brother came barrelling into the house.
“This conversation isn’t over,” I told her as I finished up my breakfast.
I watched Jasmine’s mum fuss over Nathan, she was hugging him and pulling him around. She asked him a thousand questions and he answered them all. They were along the lines of; did you get hurt? No. Did you eat? Yes. Who were the men? Don’t know. The poor boy was being hounded.
“Hello?” Tyler called from the front door. I looked up at him and he jerked his head to the front door, showing me the keys to my Harley.
“Hey, Nate. You wanna come and see my bike?”
“Really? Can I have a ride too?”
“No!” Jasmine and her mum said together.
“Chill, ladies, I’m just going to show him the bike.”
“Yeah, chill, ladies.” Nate laughed, repeating my words. He followed me out of the house and I sat him on top of my bike, placing my too big helmet on his head.
“Wow, this is so cool,” he mumbled through the helmet.
“Looking good, handsome,” Jasmine said.
“Thanks,” I said throwing a wink at her. She rolled her eyes at me and shook her head.
“Nate. Nan and grandad are going now.” I pulled the helmet off his head and he waved at them. “Are you going to come and give them a hug?”
