“Chicken?” Viper taunted when he saw her change her mind about asking Rider.
“Kiss my ass.” She said looking frantically around the room, about to interrupt Evie’s orgasm when she saw two women that Winter assumed had been invited to the party approach the seating area where Viper and her were sitting. If she wasn’t feeling frustrated with her body before, these two just made it worse, dressed skimpily with curvy bodies that Winter couldn’t compete with in the best of health. Next to them her body was a bag of bones.
“Hey Viper.” One cuddled up next to him on the arm of the couch while the other slid seductively to her knees in front of him, her hands going to his thighs.
Winter stiffened as she watched the women’s familiarity with him.
“Tara, Stacy, you two having fun tonight?” Both women nodded their heads, gazing at him, leaving no doubt as to what was on their minds.
“Have you thought any more about letting us join the Last Riders?”
“I have told you no several times. My answer hasn’t changed.”
“Come on Viper, why not?”
“We only take on one or two new recruits a year, both slots are filled.
They pouted in unison. “Where are they?”
“One is in Ohio the other is right here.” Viper pulled Winter closer to his side.
Winter was going to deny it until their expressions made her angry. Her mouth tightened into a grim line.
“Her, you’re joking right?” Stacy asked.
“No.” Viper said, trying not to laugh. Winter was about to explode.
Winter sat with her mouth closed. If he was going to use her to get the twin bimbos off his back, she wasn’t going to interfere after the derogatory looks they were giving out.
“Whatever Viper, I bet she can’t do what we did for you the last time we were here.”
“That was back in the summer, months ago, but it did give a lasting impression. I think you girls should go find Knox.”
Disappointment filled both their faces. “Can we do something for you first?” The one on her knees covered his jean-covered cock with her hand, rubbing him. Viper’s hand caught hers.
“You’re going to need all your energy for Knox.” Viper said in a tone not to be ignored. They left reluctantly giving Viper wistful glances.
“Knox already has...” Winter said watching them approach Knox.
“The more the merrier with Knox. He can handle them.”
Winter turned her head not even wanting to talk anymore. Viper rose, picking her up into his arms.
“What are you doing?’
“I feel like dancing.”
“I can’t dance.” Winter protested.
“Yes, you can.”
Viper stood on the edge of the floor letting her feet slip to the floor. Turning her to face him, he slid his arms around her slowly, swaying back and forth. Winter hadn’t danced in years; when they had dated, he never took her. She used to love to dance when she was in college. She would go out with her friends on the weekends just to dance. She allowed herself to soften against him, swaying to the music. The beat was too fast for how they were moving but it felt so good to be on her own two legs and doing something normal again. Winter began enjoying herself for the first time in a long time.
The next song was slower and someone turned the overhead lights off, just leaving the lights on at the side tables, giving the room a soft glow. After another slow dance, Viper lifted her and carried her to an ottoman that was placed at the back of the room. Winter was surprised no one was sitting on it even though the room was crowded.
“Do you want a drink?”
“No, thank you.”
Viper sat down next to her. Winter noticed that Cash was standing and talking to Stori. Bliss and Dawn were sitting on each side of Train.
“Thank you Viper, I enjoyed that.” Winter’s cheeks were flushed.
“Does your back hurt?”
“Just a little, no more than usual,” she admitted.
“Let me make you more comfortable.” Viper offered, his voice lowering.
“That’s not necessary.” Ignoring her, Viper’s hands slid around her waist sliding her sideways one hand maneuvering her legs until ,within seconds, she was lying flat on the large ottoman.
“That better?’
“Viper, I don’t need to lay down, I’m fine. Everybody is looking. I am not a total invalid.”
“No one can see anything. The crowd and couch are blocking off most of the room. Relax. Cash and Train have been in bike wrecks and know how hard it is to heal. It can’t bother you that Dawn and Bliss see you laying down either. Does it?
Winter shook her head.
“I don’t want you to put any strain on your back.” He leaned down taking her mouth in a way she used to dream of him doing for so long. The slight taste of whiskey on his tongue was heady, making her want more. Her soft lips parted wider, allowing him to deepen the kiss.
The ottoman, while in the middle of the floor was blocked off from view, but she still didn’t want to kiss Viper in front of the others. Her hands went to his chest to push him away.
