The probie and his biker chick (Iron vipers book 3)

*Tommy* I’m cruising on my bike, the rumble of the engine beneath me a sweet melody, and the wind whips around my face, and I can’t help but feel like the world is mine for the taking today. Tomorrow is a big day at the club; Zac and Willow are tying the knot, and I’m on a mission to ensure everything is ready for pickup in the morning . I’ve got a list longer than my arm but I am just happy to help. I can already picture Willow’s radiant smile when she sees the setup. She’s just the sweetest, and Zac? Well, he’s got a charm that could sell sand in the desert. As I round a bend, something catches my eye… a flash of color and the unmistakable silhouette of a car parked awkwardly on the side of the road. And then I see her: a sexy young woman with dark hair, bent over the hood of her car, kicking at it like it owes her money. She’s got an attitude that practically radiates off her, and my heart does a little backflip. She would fit in perfectly at the club with her worn out jeans, Panthera tee and leather jacket… but I have never seen her there. I slow my bike down, the engine purring like a content cat as I pull up beside her. “Need a hand?” I call out, flashing her my best charming smile. She straightens up, her striking green eyes locking onto mine. “Yeah, if you’ve got a spare fan belt for the carburetor,” she snaps, kicking the tire as if it personally offended her. “This piece of junk is going to ruin my day.” “Carburetor? Fan belt?” I raise an eyebrow, balancing my bike and trying to look casual. “You sure you’re not just trying to impress me with your mechanical knowledge?” She shoots me a look that could melt steel, lips curling into a smirk. “You think I would need to impress a guy in leather and a t-shirt with a cartoon cat on it?” I glance down at my shirt, the one with a cartoon cat in police clothes that says ‘p***y Patrol’ across the chest. “Hey, this is a conversation starter. Don’t underestimate the power of a witty tee.” “Is that what you call it?” she quips, and I can’t help but laugh. “Alright, I’ll admit, I’m more about the charm than the mechanics. But I can get you to town, and we can grab that fan belt together. It’s better than kicking your car into submission.” She raises an eyebrow, clearly weighing her options. “My daddy taught me not to go with strangers,” she replies, her tone playful but laced with caution. “Fair enough. I’m Tommy,” I say, leaning on my bike and flashing her my best charm. “You can call me Tommy, the friendly neighborhood biker. Not so scary, right? I promise I won’t bite, not unless you want me to.” She snorts, and it’s like music to my ears. “Dylan,” she says, finally breaking into a smile. “And I guess that makes you my very own friendly neighborhood biker. But I’m still not convinced.” “Okay, how about this?” I lean in conspiratorially, lowering my voice just enough to make it sound like I’m sharing a juicy secret. “If I turn out to be a total creep, you can kick me off your bike at the next traffic light. I promise I won’t take it personally.” She studies me for a moment, her dark eyes sparkling with mischief. “You really think you can charm your way into my good graces just like that?” “Just like that,” I confirm, puffing out my chest like a rooster. “What’s life without a little adventure? Besides, if you don’t enjoy the ride, you can always give me a bad Yelp review.” With a reluctant yet amused huff, she walks over and straddles the back of my bike. The moment she wraps her arms around my waist, I feel a jolt of electricity that sends my heart racing. “Just so you know,” she says, her breath tickling my ear, “if you’re a creep, you will be the one to regret this.” “Don’t worry, sweetheart. I’m just a fun-loving guy with a penchant for suggestive t-shirts and a knack for trouble,” I reply, revving the engine. “What could possibly go wrong?” And with that, we’re off, the world blurring around us as the wind rushes past. I can feel her warmth against my back, and the scent of her shampoo… something floral and fresh… fills my senses, making me forget all about the wedding preparations. All I can think about is the woman behind me, the thrill of the ride, and the way her laughter dances in the air like a promise of trouble to come.
