“Yeah wait until I start getting fat,” Ivy says, laughing.
I look down at her and my pulse picks up. “You’ll be sexy as hell.”
She peeks up at me and smiles. Her brown eyes are clear and happy as she says, “We’ll see.”
Riley and Gillian come in hand and hand. Porter and Finn come in next, with Enzo and Nora behind them. Maren comes in, pushing Brooks in a wheelchair, which he is trying to get out of. Adalyn is quietly yelling at him to sit still.
“This fucking chair is bullshit,” Brooks growls.
“You need to be off of it, so stop your complaining,” Maren says.
He shakes his head and looks at us. “Alex’s death is a reminder of our brotherhood. He gave his life to protect another. He died so we could all live and love. His death will not be in vain. We will live, love, and fight just like he wanted for us. Now let’s go say goodbye to our brother,” Brooks says.
I reach for Ivy’s hand and she links her small fingers with mine. “I’m right here, big guy,” she whispers. Yeah, she definitely is.
The funeral was exactly what Alex deserved. Shattered Souls from all over the country came. Friends and family filled the funeral home with stories of Alex throughout his life. Each story showed what an amazing man he was. We all led the hearse to the cemetery and the line of bikes was a mile long. It was fucking incredible.
We are now at Souls celebrating his life. He loved a party as much as the next guy and we are giving him one hell of a sendoff party. The music is loud, the place is packed, the liquor is flowing, and the laughs are endless.
“Remember that time he was showing us an easy way to ignite a fuse?” Riley says, laughing.
“That fucking thing blew up before he even dropped it,” Zane says.
We all laugh. The stories and memories have been endless. At that moment the shots I ordered are delivered. I grab mine and stand up. Everyone else grabs theirs and we raise our glasses.
“To our brother Alex. Fuck, we love you man,” I say, tossing back the shot.
I feel Ivy’s small hand on my back, so I turn around. “You alright?”
I grin and wrap my arms around her small frame. “I’m good, angel. Are you?” I ask, raising an eyebrow.
“Of course,” she says, biting her lip as she searches my eyes.
I lift one side of my mouth into a grin as I realize what she wants. “You want something?”
“Maybe,” she says, shrugging her shoulders.
I lean down to whisper in her ear. “Tell me what you want, Ivy.”
She bites her lip harder as her eyes trail over my body. “You.”
“Good enough,” I say, picking her up.
She wraps her legs around me as I slam my mouth to hers. She moans as my fingers dig into her ass while I fuck her mouth with my tongue.
“Fuck yeah, I love some free porn,” Riley says, laughing.
I turn around and wink. “Pay up or I’m taking her to my room.”
“Kace,” Ivy says, slapping my shoulder.
“How about just the warmup?” Riley asks.
“Fuck off,” I say, walking away.
They are all making comments and laughing, but I pay no attention. Ivy is pressed against me kissing my neck as I push the door open to the back. When we reach the bedroom, we stayed in far too long, I kick the door closed and lock it. I let her slide down my body and my dick presses harder against my zipper.
“You sure about this?” I ask, trailing my eyes over her.
