Chapter 22

Avery

We were locked away in our room the entire weekend. I guess Irene and the others knew because no one knocked on our room door. My entire body was covered in love bites and so was his. His back was riddled with scratch marks. When we went down on Sunday,no one said anything, not to me or him, Neither did they look at us in any way that would make us Aware. After breakfast he left to go do some work and I went for a ride..

We would be heading back to Ryedale this afternoon. I went to the garage and wore my helmet and rode out onto the track. I don't know how long I was riding for. I saw him leaning against the fence looking at me. I rode over as close as possible and looked at him.

“ Like what you see babe?”.

“ Oh I do , princess always. It's already two , you didn't have lunch. Come on baby we need to get ready to head back home”.

“ Jake ?”.

“ Yes Princess?”.

“ Can we ride back to Ryedale?”.

He just smiled at me. “ Okay love. Come on in and eat something we'll leave at three in the meantime Landon will refill the bikes”.

“ Thank you “.

Jake

I knew she was on the tracks. The minute I got into my office I called Shawn.

“ Sorry I've been busy”.

“ That's fine. Her father, his wife and daughter are looking for her. Alexis showed up at the company looking for her but was told that she's not working this week. Damion let me know that they've been back to the house but he never said a word and refused to let them in ,also the house is locked up so they have no idea where she is.

The sister Janice McLean has men out looking for Your wife so better get more security for her”.

“ Yeah , Landon's on that. She gave Landon a black eye”.

He started laughing.

“ I'll be coming in tomorrow through the front door,make sure everything is in place “.

“ It already is”.

After talking to Shawn I went in search of her ,I heard the bike and knew exactly where she was. I stood looking at her for a while. God she was perfect, when she saw me she smiled and I felt like I had won the fucking Jackpot.
When she asked me to ride back to Ryedale, I couldn't help but smile.

She wanted the simple things from life, the little things mean more to her than anything else. Her skin was going to burn if she continued riding in the sun, I needed to get her Good gear for riding ,We were having a late lunch when Sherry came in.

“ Mr Woods?”.

“ Yes Sherry?”. She answered her ,I didn't look up or answer, I guess she knew they would be more comfortable speaking to her , seeing as they've been with her for a very long time.

“ Avery , You're Aunt has been calling me and threatening me also Esther , because we won't tell her where you are. You know Crystal, Janice had some people beat her up, because I wouldn't say anything, she sent me a video. I'm scared Avery”.

I didn't look up.

“ Landon?”. Okay this was new, guess my woman was starting to understand her new identity. Fuck that sounded so fucking good. My woman. I saw Landon walking in.

“ Mrs Woods ?”.

“ When we get back to Ryedale, I need you to do something for me. My Aunt had Sherry's daughter beaten up. Can you find the ones that did it?”.

He looked at me., I nodded yes , without her seeing.

“ Yes Mrs Woods “.

“ Good ,when you do . Break Their arms and legs and dump them in front of the McLean family house. I'll go get dressed, we need to head back home”.

She stood up and walked away, Landon and Sherry were left looking at her. Fuck me.

“ Don't worry Sherry, your Daughter will be fine “.

“ Thank you Mr Woods. She cares about Crystal,they were Best friends until Alexis found out and made Renee beat Crystal up”. She said before walking into the kitchen area.

“ Boss , should I really do it?”.

“ Yes”.

I went upstairs and found her sitting in the bed.

“ Are You okay princess?”.

“ I don't know what came over me. I have no idea why I asked Landon to do That.”.She looked frustrated and I understood what it was. I pulled her up and tilted her face upwards towards mine.

“ Someone you care about got hurt,and now you have power and the means to do something about it”.

“ I'm sorry ”, she just hugged me. She has a soft heart.she could be mean when needed but after that she starts to feel hurt about it.

“ Come on baby, let's get dressed and let's go home “.

“ Okay “.

Irene and the others would Lock up the house. I was waiting for her in the garage when she walked in wearing jeans and a crop top. I couldn't help but stare at her. Every single part of her body was covered in hickeys.

“ Stop staring babe”, she said as she took the jacket from the bike and zipped it up.

“ I'll always stare at you Princess always and you and only you “.

She smiled before wearing the helmet. I let her ride out first then followed her. Landon and the other security details were behind us. The entire ride to Ryedale, I had her in my sight, She would slow down and ride beside me .

When we hit Tirendale. That's when the Ride became interesting. The road to Ryedale was long and straight,it was rarely used. I slowed down next to her and stretched my hand out,she turned and looked at me.

“ Let's Race Baby Girl”.

She didn't say anything,she revved up and rode off ,she had to be going well over One ten. I sped up and followed her. I passed her going one Forty, but she didn't let up. She caught up to me and rode head to head with me. Fuck this was my woman.

We stopped in Brighton to refuel. She was about to take her helmet off but stopped. I looked in the direction she was looking in and saw what it was. Alexis and Renee were there. I walked over to her and pulled her to me and just stood with her.

I could see everyone staring. I didn't need to take off my helmet, I knew she could hear me.

“ Princess, I'm going to take my helmet off”.

“ Go ahead ” , I knew she was smiling. I pulled the helmet off and just stood there holding her ,I turned her around so her back was to me.

“ My my my, seems like Alexis finds you interesting Love “.

“ Princess, I wouldn't touch another woman, even with a gun point to my head”. I said, biting her shoulder.

Avery

I saw the way Alexis was looking at him. After the bikes were refueled, he wore his helmet and we left. When we entered Ryedale, I noticed the car. I turned around and headed in the other direction, I knew he would follow me. When I pulled up into the driveway of the beach house, he pulled up next to me.

“ Princess?”.

“ Wait”.

I saw the car.

“ They've been following us since we left the gas station. If we had gone straight home they would have started sneaking around and if they had seen me it would be disastrous“.

He pulled his phone out.

“ Landon,head home. We're at the beach house. We'll come back later tonight “.

I walked up the pathway to the house. Before he opened the door, Renee's car had passed Three times.
We relaxed until ten that evening. When Landon showed up.

We drove back to Ryedale, Landon and another security detail would bring the bikes.


Jake

When we got home it was close to midnight, she went and showered by the time I got to our room she was out. I couldn't help but smile. I grabbed a shower and got into bed with her, the minute I pulled her into me she sighed in her sleep.

“ Jake ?”.

“ I'm here Baby”.

She snuggled in closer to me, sighing. Go damn ,I guess it was worth coming back to Ryedale after all, I found the woman I would spend the rest of my life with. I held her closer and drifted off to sleep.

I felt it in my sleep and I knew she was awake and looking at me. I felt her in my arms and pulled her in closer.

“ I thought you were asleep babe?”.

“ I was , but I felt you looking at me princess ”

“ You feel it in your sleep?”.

“ Yes”. I opened my eyes and looked at her ,she just smiled. I pulled her to me and Kissed her.

“ Good morning Princess ”

“ Good morning, love “. I looked down at her body and I guess she saw the look in my eyes because she rolled away from me
