Nate stood. He offered a hand and
Mia took it. He pulled and she sat up. Almost eye level with Nate

s

package

looking at
a skull belt buckle.


Come
on,

he ordered.

He pulled again and Mia climbed to
her feet. She was still a little weak and took advantage of Nate

s wild body and leaned into him.
He quickly grabbed her by the shoulders and kept her at arm

s length. He stared like he had
something to say. Instead, he reached down and grabbed his leather cut and put
it back on.


On
the motorcycle, right now.

Mia nodded.

Nate gave her his helmet and
grinned.

Don

t want you spilling your brains
on the road, babe.

For a second Mia took that as a
flirty comment.

Then Nate added,

We

d
rather spill your brains ourselves. If you don

t
listen
…”

He then fired up his motorcycle and
took off.

Mia jerked back and hurried to grab
Nate and hang on tight.

She looked back at her car, seeing
it grow smaller in the distance. The only thing she had on her was her cell
phone.

And now she was taken by Nate

by Back Down Devil MC.

six.

 

Jesus Christ, she

s fucking beautiful.

The worst thought to have when
approaching an enemy. If she was an enemy. Was there a chance she had been
telling the truth and was just cruising up and down Frelen? Yeah, fuck that.
She was blatantly following them and Nate needed to find out why. It didn

t matter that she had curly
auburn hair or her eyes were a bright shade of brown. That her figure was
simply to die for. The way her shirt pulled tight around the mounds of her
breasts. How she didn

t
show skin to look attractive, she was just naturally beautiful. And then jeans
with tears in them.

Fuck. Stop this.

It was a huge risk bringing her
back to the clubhouse like this. There was a good chance Miller would string
her up by chains and just kill her. Or some of the guys -
like fucking
Blaine
- would want to have their way with her.

But if she was an enemy

she

d have to be killed. There was no way around it.

Blaine rode behind Nate, just in
case Mia did try to do something stupid. If she jumped off, she

d be dead. One way or another.
Whatever the hell pulled her into this situation

As they approached the center of
Frelen, something caught Nate

s
attention. He could see a little bit up the road there were three Coast Road MC
motorcycles cruising out of Frelen. He saw their wide backs and stupid logos.
It made him grip the handlebars tighter. Coast Road MC felt comfortable enough
to just do what they wanted in and out of Frelen. And why not? They had the
backing, didn

t they? If
Chief Jerry and that fucking judge were keeping Coast Road MC under their
wings, they just floated around. Dealing drugs. Moving drugs.


Christ,

Nate growled under his breath.

He made the turn to get into the
compound. Two prospects were there to quickly shut the gates. They then stood
there, holding rifles like it was some kind of military base about to be under
attack.

Miller stood on a table, barking
orders at a bunch of the guys. Gaige sat on the table, looking around. Blaine
darted ahead and parked his ride first. Nate felt Mia clutching his shirt
tighter than ever.

He slowly walked the motorcycle
backward and turned it off. He hit the kickstand, leaned the motorcycle, and
then gave Mia a chance to get off. She did, but kept on hand at his shirt,
holding.

When Nate looked at her, he gritted
his teeth.

She was scared shitless. Whatever
was going on was not her fault at all. She was tied into this against her own
will. And now she was in the compound against her own will. Some people say
when it rains, it pours. Nate believed something more simple; fuck that, get
out of the rain.

Nate stood and slid his hand to Mia

s back. He tightened his hand to
her shirt. He looked down and his eyes went to her tits. Her shirt was up
enough to barely show something good, but was all there. The shirt was tight,
her body was tight, and it was fucking killing Nate.


You
stay with me,

he ordered
her.

Or else you

ll end up dead.


Okay,

Mia said.

I don

t know what you want from me.


Answers,

Nate growled.

And there

s only one way to get the truth.

Nate felt Mia way too close to him.

She

s the enemy. Fuck her.

Nate looked up and saw Blaine
pointing.


Oh,
fuck,

Nate said.

Be ready, babe.


Ready
…”

Miller dove off the table. He
pushed by Erik and Jace, sending them flying back. Blaine walked alongside him,
Griffin trying to keep up. The second Nate met eyes with Miller, it was on.

Fire, anger, everything Nate wanted
the club to feel about the situation. But he also felt a little remorse that
Mia was going to be on the opposite end of it all.


They

re going to kill me,

she said.

Her voice cracked a little.


Not
unless you listen to me,

Nate said.

He couldn

t believe he was actually considering defending
this woman. She didn

t
deserve shit right now. But a beautiful woman with a confused face

Nate stepped forward and put a fist
out.

Miller
…”


No,

Miller growled.

I want that bitch strung up
right now. She was trailing you for a reason. Coast Road was just riding by
here, on purpose, to fuck with us. They want a war? I

ll give them a fucking massacre.

Nate wiggled away from Mia and
stood his ground.

You have
to listen to me
…”

Miller bumped into Nate. It was
like two boulders colliding. Gritting his teeth, Nate backed down, out of
respect for the patch.


I

m working
…”

He tried to say something to
Miller, but it was no use.

Mia hurried to back up from the
biker barreling at her. Nate watched with annoyed and helpless eyes. She wasn

t going to get away, and
fighting would only make things worse.

Mia hit the railing behind her. She
threw her hands out and gripped the railing.

Miller was stopping though. He
grabbed her by the mouth and pushed, sending her up and over the railing.


Christ!

Nate yelled.

He lunged forward and Blaine
grabbed him.

Bro, easy
…”

Nate threw an elbow and hit Blaine
in the jaw. He flew back and grabbed his face.


Fuck,
Miller!

Nate yelled.

Mia let out a weak scream. She had
a white knuckle grip on the railing. Miller had a hand on her leg, his other hand
on her jaw. She was upside down, her auburn hair dangling.


You

re going to fucking spill
everything,

Miller
growled.


Miller,
I have her,

Nate said.

Miller looked back. He then stepped
back and brought Mia back to her feet. Her hair was messy, her face red and
flushed. Her eyes were wide, filled with tears.


This
isn

t a joke,

Miller said.

I

m
going to ask once. You lie and you

re
done.

Mia nodded.

Okay.

Her eyes strained to look at Nate. He could only nod back to her.


Were
you trailing my guys?

Miller asked.

There were a few seconds of
hesitation and then Mia said,

Yes.


Fuck,

Nate said.


I
knew it,

Blaine said.

She

s working for someone.


Are
you working for Coast Road MC?

Miller asked.


I
don

t know what that means,

Mia said.

Miller pulled her close. They were
nose to nose. Nate felt a ping of jealousy go through his body and he jumped
forward, grabbing Miller

s
shoulder. It was a risky move.

When Miller turned, Nate figured he
was going to get hit.

But Miller just stared.


I
know,

Nate said.

But we can

t kill her right now. Or hurt
her. Or really scare her. Right? She

ll
hole up on us.

Miller let out a growl. He took his
hand from Mia

s face. Her
eyes didn

t leave Nate

s.

I want a meeting right now. Everyone at the table.
Full house.


You
got it, boss,

Blaine said.


Everyone,
inside!

Gaige boomed and
then whistled.


I
want prospects at the gates,

Miller said.

Except to
watch the bitch.

It made Nate cringe to hear Miller
call Mia a bitch. Yet, Nate knew nothing of her.


And
you, Nate, are going to take her underground. Keep her there until we meet and
decide how to take care of her.


You
can

t kill me!

Mia cried out.

They

ll find my car. They

ll
look for me.

Miller looked at Mia again.

You think this is a fucking
game? I

ll have your car
moved and burned before anyone gives a shit you

re
missing. And by the time someone does give a shit, you

ll be nothing but a pile of bones in a hole.

Mia looked down, defeated. Miller
hovered over her. His hands were in tight fists. He wanted to lose his mind.
Again, Mia was lucky she was a woman. And goddamn to whoever put her up to
this.


Come
on,

Nate said. He moved by
Miller and clamped a hand down on Mia

s
wrist.

Fucking move right
now.

Nate pulled Mia close but not too
close. Miller finally turned and charged away. He pointed and started yelling
at two prospects to get the chains and the guns ready.


I
didn

t do
…”


Shut
up,

Nate spat at Mia.

You don

t fucking talk to Miller like that. Or any one of
us like that. Christ. Miller is the goddamn President.


I
don

t follow any of it.


Then
why the fuck were you tailing us?

Mia

s
face turned to stone.
Of course it did.
She was going to be the
tightlipped criminal, right?

Nate shook his head.

The longer you wait, the worse
it

ll get. Now move.

Nate didn

t mind being rough with Mia. He had to remind
himself that she was exactly the kind of bitch Miller warned the guys about. It
had been a wonder the club wasn

t
fucked with yet by a woman. It wouldn

t
take much more than a nice pair of tits and open legs to get attention from
anyone in the MC.

But Mia wasn

t that at all.

That

s
what made it confusing.

Nate had Mia

s hands behind her back, gripping her wrists with
one big hand. He walked her, his other hand flirting with the front of her
body, worried that she was going to trip or try and get away. Or maybe he just
wanted to touch her.

The walk down the ramp to the
underground garage was a shit walk. Everyone who took that walk never saw the
light of day again. There had been a lot of blood spilled down there. Guys
strung up and gutted. Beaten over the course of days. Real dirty stuff. But
there had never been a woman down there. There had never been a need for it.

Until now.

Nate shook his head as he punched
in the code to open the garage. The old metal made a grinding sound and the
concrete ground gently rumbled. Once opened, Nate pushed Mia, fucking with her
as she stumbled forward and then he pulled her back hard, letting her crash
into his chest.

Fuck, he could lead her on right
now. Tell her that if she fucked him or sucked him off he

d let her go. Blaine would do
it. Blaine would have already done it by now. Hell, any of the guys would do
it.

Nate looked over his shoulder and
felt that jealous ping again.

What if one of the guys did that
to her? Came down and sat next to her. Made false promises so they could get
their dick sucked.


Fuck,

Nate growled.


What

s wrong?

Mia asked.

Nate didn

t respond.

He couldn

t let that happen to Mia. Even if she was a bitch.

He opened the second door and
pushed, letting her go. She flew forward and went down to her knees.Nate
resisted helping her and stood there, arms crossed.


Now
what?

Mia asked as she
looked back.

On her hands and knees

so tempting


Shut
up,

Nate said.

You

re getting chained for now. I have a meeting. I

m going to try and help you as
much as I can. Under two conditions. You don

t
fuck around in here. And you don

t
fucking lie to me.
