Avery was totally surprised to get several messages from Justin every day. He would ask silly questions, like her favorite food, color and other little things to get to know her. She asked the same ones in return and was totally shocked to learn his favorite food was sushi. He seemed more like a steak kind of guy. It somehow seemed more masculine to her and fit him better.

He was constantly on her mind, thanks to his texts and his daughter being around, even when she wasn't working. Avery didn't really mind, she really liked the little girl and the sass and confidence she brought. Avery wished she had some of that herself.

Avery did learn over the course of the week that Ryan was the son of one of the other members and his mother wasn't around either. She wondered what had happened there and thought about asking Justin but couldn't figure out a way to broach the subject without being too pushy.

Avery was completely distracted Thursday night at yoga. She had found a little place in Downtown Middleton and was going several days a week to keep in shape. She hated other exercises and the yoga had helped her heal after her surgery. She wasn't watching where she was going as she made her way back to her apartment and ran into a hard obstacle.

She looked up and blushed profusely, "I'm so sorry! I didn't see you there!"

Justin was looking at her with a weird expression, "It's becoming a thing with us. Can I ask what the hell you are wearing?"

Avery was confused, looking down at her workout clothes, "I'm wearing clothes?"

"No, you are clearly not wearing clothes!" He growled.

Avery felt her temper start to rise, hearing his tone, "First, I am actually wearing clothes and second, it's none of your damn business! Now if you'll excuse me, I am going into my home!"

And brushed past him, opened her door and as she was shutting it, was stopped by a large hand and Avery was helpless to do anything but watch him come in and close the door behind him.

"What the hell are you doing?" she asked heatedly.

"We didn't finish our discussion," Justin responded, looking her up and down with a gleam in his eyes that she hadn't yet seen.

"I wasn't aware we were having a discussion! I seem to remember you accusing me of not wearing clothes!" Avery countered.

Justin's nostrils flared, "I don't want other men looking at what is mine!"

Avery stepped back and gaped, "YOURS?! What the actual hell are you talking about?!"

"When I am with a woman, I expect her to be with me until I am done with her! Not showing her body off to everyone else!" He threw back at her.

"Why you hypocritical piece of shit! You spew all this about how you want 'your woman' to be all into you, but you whip your dick out any chance you get! And don't try to deny it, I have heard the rumors and stories about you and your little club parties. They are like orgies and you participate with the rest of them!!" Avery yelled back.

Justin heard her words and stopped before he said something he regretted and took a deep breath, "Let's start again. This is not the way I was anticipating this going."

"Why the hell are you even here?" Avery snarked back, "Aren't you out of town? Your daughter seemed to think so."

"I was out on a run. There was some business that needed my attention. Lexi is with Mama June, a kind of grandmother to everyone in the club. She adores her and Bear and thinks of them like her grandparents since my parents aren't around," Justin started, "And I came by because I needed to see you and not just text back and forth. And when I saw you walk up in that outfit, all the blood in my body went straight to my cock and there is none left in my brain."

Avery's eyes went wide again at his admission about his body and she couldn't help but notice the large bulge in his well fitting jeans.

"Want a closer look?" He asked with a smirk.

Avery shook her head, blushing, "No, thanks. I um, was coming back from yoga. That's why I am wearing this. It's called workout clothes."

"You do yoga?" He asked, trying not to picture her in some of the poses he had seen others do.

"Yes, it helped me heal after my surgery."

"What surgery?" Justin demanded. He was still confused and a little pissed that Stevo hadn't been able to find anything other than the basic shit he already had. Stevo thought someone had done some serious work to cover up her past and had no idea why.

"None of your business! Now what do you want?" Avery snapped.

"This," he responded, pulled her to his chest, wrapped an arm around her waist, pinning her to him and kissed her deeply.

Avery was stunned by his sudden movements and for a second stiffened, but almost immediately softened. He could feel her mold against his body and was shocked how well they matched together. He wanted more and lifted her up with his other arm, holding her under her ass and pressed her into the door to hold them up. She moaned and he took full advantage by pushing his tongue into her mouth and exploring.

Avery had never been kissed like this before, never had a kiss filled with such passion, fire, desire and experience. So much experience! She could feel it rolling off him in waves and knew he was completely turned on by the bulge that kept rubbing against her legs. She was clinging to him like her life depended on it and she liked it. She liked the feel of his hard chest and strong arms around. She liked the smell of him-leather, wind, cigars and maybe whisky or bourbon. He felt good and safe, something she hadn't felt since her dad died.

Suddenly Justin pulled back enough to run his tongue along the soft parts of her throat and gently bit her earlobe and murmured, "What the fuck are you doing to me Avery? You have me all tangled up and driving me crazy, Baby."

Avery could do nothing but breath heavily and feel what he was doing to her bare skin. She never experienced any of these sensations before- goosebumps, shivers, rapid heartbeat and intense need. Zach certainly never inspired this in her. She had been attracted to him and he had been her one and only lover to date and it may have been good, she didn't have anything to compare it to. But that was before this moment, what he was doing with his tongue stirred things in her that she had never experienced before and she loved it.

Avery opened her eyes when Justin picked her off the door and sat her on the little kitchen table. She leaned back some when Justin went back to kissing her mouth and felt his hands start to wander. She thought she heard him mutter as he kissed all over her skin, '"fucking yoga pants showing off what's mine!" She was going to respond but then felt his large hands gently snaking their way past the waistband of her pants and she gasped when he reached the folds between her legs.

She had the softest skin and it tasted so good. She was slightly salty from the sweating of doing yoga, but had faint hints of something like apples. Justin laid over her on the little table still kissing her when he finally got his hands under the material and she was just as soft and wet as he had been dreaming she would be. He couldn't wait until he could bury his thick length inside her, already knowing it would be the best feeling in the world.

His large body was between her legs and he gently rubbed her clit, now sticking up and begging him to touch it as she arched her back. And he wanted to do so much more than touch. He wanted to taste, lick, suck and bite every inch of her until she was screaming his name. He pushed two fingers inside and felt how tight she was and how she was responding to him. He heard her breathing change and moved off her lips to keep his mouth right next to her ear so he could whisper to her as he turned his hand to finger rub her at the same time

"I'm gonna make you come, Baby. I want to feel how tight you get on my fingers and then I'm gonna suck your juices off. You want me to do that, Baby?" He purred.

"Oh god Justin, what are you doing?" she asked almost deliriously.

"I'm giving my girl some pleasure. Now I want you to be a good girl and come for me, ok?" he whispered, gently running his teeth over her skin. Avery had no idea what was happening to her body, it felt tight and wound up like it was going to break apart. And before she could ask what was happening, she felt herself explode with a bang she never knew existed and sunk her nails into his back as she called out.

Justin thought it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen and so much more real than any of the sweetbutts and hang arounds that were always in the club house. He kissed her lips and he slowed his fingers way down to ease her out of the orgasm. She broke the kiss to pant, leaning her head back on the table top.

"What was that?" She asked, confused.

Justin looked down at her with wide eyes, "You have never had an orgasm before?"

"That was an orgasm?" She asked and he nodded, "Then no, I have never had one like that."

Justin grinned, "Well I am claiming all your orgasms from now on." She was going to protest but stopped when he removed his hand from her pants and shoved his fingers in his mouth and really did suck on them.

She was totally speechless and had no idea what to do when he finished and said, "You taste even better than in my dreams."

Avery sat up, suddenly angry and pushed him off, "What the hell Justin?! What was that?"

Justin stood up, grinning as he watched her fix her pants and start pacing the floor and said, "I couldn't help it. You look so fucking hot in that damn outfit, I had to kiss you and touch you."

She looked at him and saw that he was pleased with himself, smiling like a cocky son of a bitch, "Great. You had your fun, now you can leave. And erase my number from your phone. You can add another notch on your belt and move on to the next."

Justin saw the hurt in her eyes and heard the half sob at the end of her speech. He realized then that he had treated her like he would have a sweetbutt and feeling ashamed, he walked over to her, placing his hands on her arms, trying to soothe her, "Hey Avery, don't be upset. I didn't mean to hurt you. I'm sorry."

"You made me feel cheap- like a cheap whore," She said looking up at him, hurt filling her light green eyes.

He felt terrible and wrapped her in his arms, "I never meant for that to happen Baby. I'm so sorry. Will you let me make it up to you?"

She let him hold her, which she knew she would regret, "Why? Can't you just leave me alone?"

"Hell no. It is physically impossible for me to forget about you. You are on my mind constantly, and that has never happened before. EVER. I have never been drawn to a woman like you in my life and it's driving me insane," He told her as he rubbed her back.

She pulled back and looked up at him, "Please don't hurt me Justin. I don't think I can take one more hurt in my life..."

He leaned down and kissed her gently, "I promise. Can I please take you out Friday night?"

"A date?" She asked.

"Yes. It's been awhile since I've been on one, but I think I remember how to plan one," He smirked.

She took a deep breath and slowly let it out, praying she didn't regret her decision, "Ok."

He grinned like the Cheshire cat, "'Perfect. I will pick you up tomorrow at 7, ok?"

She nodded, "Ok."

He hugged her again, then placed a kiss on her forehead, "I can't wait!"

"Yeah, I'm sure it will be the highlight of your weekend," Avery replied snarkily.

Justin looked at her with a raised eyebrow, "Why do you say it like that?"

"Justin, let's be honest here. I am a 25 year old Kindergarten teacher with a half-way decent figure, ok looks and limited experience, sexually. You are a motorcycle club president with women-beautiful and sexy women-throwing themselves at you 24/7. And you admitted to me before that you enjoy sex, A LOT. I know you have slept with more women that I probably even want to know about. Hell, you have a daughter and she is a beautiful little girl, so I know that her mother must have been beautiful. So please don't try and butter me up to get me to go on the damn date. I already said yes," Avery replied, looking down at the end.

Justin felt his heart break a little hearing how little she thought of herself, "Baby, please don't say shit like that. You are beautiful, sweet, smart and intriguing. I mean it, I can't get you out of my mind."

He wanted to say more, but his phone beeped and he cursed softly as he had to answer it.

"...Yeah, ok. I'll be there in 10...Thanks Colin..." he said and hung up and turned to her, "I gotta go Baby, got something that needs my attention for a few minutes. Then I wanna try and see Lex before bedtime."

She smiled softly hearing him talk about Alexis, "I understand..."

He kissed her forehead again, "I'll see you tomorrow night?"

She nodded, "Sure."

He gently rubbed her face with his hand and nodded, then turned and left, closing the door quietly behind him. She looked at the door, wondering what was going to happen the following night. She knew somehow this was going to be something that would change the way she looked at her life.
