Forgiving Nancy (Last Hangman MC, #5)(83)
“Mina and I have a rough past.” He mumbles into my neck.
“Do tell.”
“No.”
“Yes. Come on, it can’t be that bad.” I bite my lip as I try really hard not to laugh.
“Let’s just say that when they first got her, she decided it would be a good idea to chase me down their street and bite my ass. She nearly took a chunk out of this perfect ass.” He groans again and I burst out laughing as he grabs his ass. “You’re evil.” He looks up and glares at me.
“Big, badass Bennett is scared of a little puppy.” I almost choke on my suppressed laughter.
“She’s anything but a little puppy she’s a f*cking hellhound I’m telling you!” He frowns.
“Okay, so not a Rottweiler for the big baby.” I chuckle and kiss the top of his head.
“Thank you.” He pecks my lips and lies down next to me before pulling my body close to his. I cuddle into his side and throw my leg on top of his. I rest my head on his chest and let his heartbeat slowly send me to sleep.
Things couldn’t be any better with Bennett, except the fact that he’s whining a lot about me being at his beck and call, it’s usually in a playful way but sometimes it’s so f*cking annoying. He makes me happy and from what I can see, I make him happy too which is all we can ask for really. The club has received threats concerning what Bennett did and the fact that three clubs barged into the Infernos’ compound, but thankfully, nothing’s come of it so far.
Bennett
“Where are we going?” Nancy asks for the twentieth time since we left home.
“You’ll see in a minute, calm your tits!” I snicker.
“You better have a good reason to drag me out of bed in the middle of the night, Bennett Sawyer.” She glares at me in an attempt to look threatening but the yawn that follows soon after just makes her look adorable.
“I do.” I taunt, feeling quite proud of myself as we drive up the familiar path.
“Wait…Are we?”
“Back to Callum’s cabin.”
“Why are we here? Does he need us?” She asks sounding concerned and I’ve learned not to let their friendship affect me anymore.
“No, he’s as alright as Callum can be. We’re here because I wanted to show you something.”
“Here? You couldn’t show me at home?”
“Nope.”
“I swear if you pull your dick out of your pants I will chop it off!” She groans.
“You love my dick too much to do that. Come on, cheer up, you’re gonna love this.” I smile and take her hand to kiss her knuckles.
“You better be right.” She grumbles.
“I’m always right.” I smile confidently and park in front of the cabin. We don’t have much time before it starts so I have to rush her and when Nancy is tired and grumpy, getting her to hurry up is the last thing you want to do.
“That’s yet to be proven,” she says before she climbs out of the truck. I follow suit and lock up behind us.
“Come on,” I take her hand and lead her up the front steps and straight around to the back porch.
“What’s back here?” she asks.
“Hold on.” I smile and lay the blanket I took from the car on the ground before sitting down. “Join me.” I hold my hand out to her and she looks as if she’s about to kill me at first but then she complies and sits between my legs. I immediately wrap my arms around her and pull her backwards so her back is to my front and her head is resting on my shoulder.
“So? Why are we here?”
“Watch.” I tell her whilst pointing at the sky beyond the lake.
“There’s nothing to see, Bennett. It’s too dark.”
“Give it a minute, my Gorgeous Girl.” I kiss her neck and smile as we see the first hints of daylight.
“Oh,” she whispers and relaxes into my arms.
“When I came here the day you reappeared, I promised myself that one day we’d be watching the sunrise together. I told you that I always keep my promises.” I sigh as I take in the breathtaking view with my woman.
“It’s beautiful. Thank you.”
“Not so grumpy now ,are we?” She elbows me on my good side but I still wince playfully. “I love you, my Gorgeous Girl.
“And I love you, my Bennett.” She turns around and kisses me deeply.
“You are my happy, Nancy.” She turns herself around again in my arms and sighs happily as she settles down.
I knew one day this would happen; I knew I would get my Nancy back. I didn’t know when, I just knew it would happen. I couldn’t be any happier than I am right now. Well, that’s a lie; I could be if we could have a baby. We’re still not sure if she can get pregnant so we have an appointment with the doctor next week to check whether everything is ok or not. But truthfully, if she can’t have kids it won’t change anything. I won’t love her any less, I couldn’t. We’ll just have to get our own bundle of joy another way.
Things have been insane both inside and outside of the club.
Nancy’s parents were killed and I had absolutely nothing to do with it…not directly anyway. I don’t know how she’d feel if she knew how it really happened, but they threatened her again so something had to be done. Callum might have forced destiny a little bit but he was more than happy to do it; hell, he even offered to do it.
