Salvaged (MC Romance) by Brook Winters Page B

of taking long walks around the salvage looking for the replacement part. He figured that he’d ask them directly where they kept all the good stuff and finally complete this mission.
     
    With a sour mood, he entered the gray building with an old, forgettable feeling that he had seen better days, just like the cars outside. He paused and thought, Well, well, well, would you look at that . His day just brightened, and a predator smile blessed his hard features.
     
    At the counter was a beauty focused on the wall opposite from him. He took the opportunity to look her over. She was petite, and her nice figure was wrapped in a simple outfit: a colorful blouse that was nicely filled out and jeans that hugged her hourglass figure.
     
    However, what really grabbed Josh’s attention was her wild, curly, black hair that contrasted with her translucent skin. There was no denying that the girl was a peach, and he loved to eat peaches all day. She had soft features, even though she was frowning, and Angelina Jolie lips, which Josh could imagine doing a million and one things to him.
     
    Well, my day just got better , he thought. When she finally noticed him, Josh knew that he was going to get lucky tonight. He couldn’t contain his surprise when the little chick gave him a black out. Well, now that was a first. Usually women wanted to fuck him and men wanted to get as far away from him as possible.
     
    However, the war was not lost, the night was young, and her rejection only spiked his curiosity. When he first entered the salvage yard, he wasn’t looking for a roll in the bed, but after the small interaction with the wild beauty with black hair, he knew that it was bound to happen.
     
    Since she was all business and no play, Josh decided to get down to business and leave the fun part to later. He explained what he was looking for, and she called a man to escort him to where he might find it. To his surprise, he actually did. Then, he went back to the gray building and made the purchase. Since it took a while for him to find his piece, it was already dark outside.
     

Jess
     
    When business with “Mr. I’m-the-best-thing-since-the-invention-of-chocolate” was finally completed, it was late. Linda, Jess’s friend, had already called her saying that she couldn’t wait for her because she had to pick up her son. So, Jess had no other option but to reassure her friend that she would be okay and that she would catch the bus.
     
    “Shit!” she said unexpectedly, looking at the clock. There was no way she could get the bus now, at least not in time to be home in the next two hours.
     
    “What’s wrong, beautiful?”
     
    Jess couldn’t get used to the name he was calling her, but she wasn’t complaining. Compliments from a sexy man were never enough, even if that sexy man was a motorcycle bad boy.
     
    “Nothing. Just figuring out how to get home, just lost my ride.” Jess didn’t know why she told him that, but it was automatic. She figured that maybe she was too stressed to control her actions.
     
    “No problem. You can ride with me.”
     
    “What?”
     
    Jess looked at him confused. Did he just ask me to ride with him?
     
    “Yeah, beautiful. I know that I’m possibly the reason you lost your ride, so it’s only fair that I give you a ride back.”
     
    She bit her lip, suddenly unsure of her decision. Why is it so hard to say no to him? Maybe because his steel blue eyes are pressing on me like I’m something out of the ordinary.
     
    “You don’t have to be afraid. I just want to give you a ride. I promise not to bite—unless you ask me to.”
     
    She was taken aback by his not so subtle comment; but, she recovered fast and said, “Thank you, but I’m good. I’ll find a way to get home.”
     
    “Oh, come on. Now you’re offending me.”
     
    “I—” she started, but he cut her off.
     
    “Look, I get your situation. I’m a total stranger offering you a ride. With the world today you are
