Existence 03 - Ceaseless

chest in jubilation . She was happy to see me. She hadn’t smiled at him. She’d smiled at me.
    “Dank?” The surprise in her voice was accompanied by a pleased gleam in her eyes.
    “Good morning,” I replied trying to think of a way I could get her to go inside and change without sounding like a jerk.
    “What are you doing here?”
    Waiting to see you.
    Her eyes flew open wide and I realized I’d unintentionally talked to her soul again. I had to stop doing that. “I was up early and thought I’d stop by and see if you wanted to have breakfast with me.”
    Her smile faltered as her brain worked through the fact she’d heard me speak in her head.
    “Pagan? You coming?” Jay asked keeping his distance from us. I made him nervous ; I could feel his fear.
    Pagan frowned and looked over at him, “Coming where?”
    That’s my girl. Shoot him down.
    “I thought we would go get a coffee and talk while they, you know,” he pointed toward her room.
    Pagan looked back at me and I seriously considered begging. She pressed her lips together then turned her eyes back toward Jay. “Uh, actually no. I thought you were leaving. I’m sure Nathan will find a way back. Miranda has a car.”
    She was choosing me. The urge to reach out and pull her close to me and send a possessive warning to the boy was overwhelming but I kept myself in check.
    “ You going with him?” Jay asked harshly . I cut my eyes in his direction and he stiffened. Yeah, he better get the warning.
    “Yes, Jay , I am. Not that it is your business.”
    I was kissing her as soon as he left us the hell alone.
    Jay opened his mouth and I pulled back my lips in a snarl. He stopped. Smart boy.
    Shaking his head he turned and walked off.
    I reached down and threaded my fingers through hers. “Let’s go eat.”
    She smiled down at our hands then looked up at me,” Okay. Where to?”
    I pulled her closer to me, “Anywhere you want.”
    She looked around me and saw my Harley parked across the street. “Are we taking that?” she asked.
    “If that’s okay. I can promise you that you will be completely safe.”
    She bit down on her bottom lip several times as she contemplated it. Finally, she nodded. “Okay, yeah. Let’s take it.”
    I’d brought a helmet with me just in case she agreed to ride with me . Pulling it out of the back compartment I put it on her head and fastened it. She was adorable. I really should have gotten one of these sooner. She’d have been hot riding to school on the back of it with me every morning.
    “How do I look?” she asked.
    “Hot. Smoking hot.”
    A blush covered her cheeks and she ducked her head to hide it. I got on the bike and held my hand out to her. “Come here.”
    She slipped her hand in mine and I held her steady as she lifted her leg over the back and scooted in against my back. When she slid her arms around me and her hands grabbed tightly to the tee shirt covering my stomach , I closed my eyes and sighed. Yeah, this was good. Real good.

    Pagan
    Riding the back of a motorcycle pressed tightly up against Dank Walker was one of those experiences that all females should have before they die. Nothing compared to it. The dark exotic smell that was his alone invaded my senses. My fingers and palms kept grazing his abs and oh my , were his abs nice. Unlike other abs I’d seen , his were really, really ripped. He had more than just a six-pack. I fought the need to slip my hands under his shirt just to see what the skin covering such a perfect stomach felt like. Unfortunately our ride was over too soon. Dank pulled the motorcycle into a little café that had a sign advertising their breakfast menu outside on a chalkboard.
    Dank got off the bike and helped me get off. I was a little unsteady but it worked out to my advantage because he took my waist and pulled me up against his chest. Now I knew what that chest felt like . I was very excited about getting near that stomach and chest .
    “I liked that. A lot.” He told me in a low sexy voice.
    I swallowed hard and nodded. Might as well be honest. I liked it a lot too. “Yeah, me too.” I glanced down at his stomach. I really wanted to see it bare.
    “What you looking at, Pagan?” The amused tone in his voice didn’t mask the fact he was turned on.
    I decided to be brave. “I was wondering what your stomach looks like. After our ride I have a few ideas but…” I trailed off.
    Dank’s hands squeezed my waist and he took a deep breath, “If you want
