“Yes,” she blurted out without thinking. “He has to be stopped.”
“I doubt that he’s using his real name, but Hawk’s real good with computers—he’s our IT guy. He wants to see if he can figure out this guy’s IP address.”
“Maybe he’s using a blocker like I do.”
“Probably is, but Hawk wants to try it out. Can you spare your laptop being outta commission for a week or so?”
“It’s fine. I back everything up on an external hard drive so I can use my older laptop to finish up what I need for teaching and my psych class. I need to tell Dr. Davison about all this.”
“Don’t tell anyone anything,” Animal replied.
“There’s no way Dr. Davison’s involved in this, oranyoneI know.”
“It’s just better not to tell people your business. Anyway, the club doesn’t want anyone knowing what’s going down.”
“The chance of me knowing this horrible bastard is so slim.”
“Agreed, but still …no one. Okay, babe?”
“Yes, I promise. Did your mom tell you what Hunter looked like? I know you told me last night that she was just too freaked and shocked by everything to remember, but maybe now?”
“I’m swinging by the house after I get two jobs finished. She told me her memory is getting clearer. I’ll arrange for an installation of an alarm system at your house.”
Olivia took a sip of her soda. “I can’t afford that.”
“Don’t worry about it.”
“Animal, you’ve done enough for me already, and I’m starting to feel guilty. You put in all the window coverings, you made sure I didn’t pay anything for the car repair, and now this? I can’t accept it.”
“What’s the fucking problem? You’re my woman and I want to take care of you. I’m not gonna worry about you when we’re not together just because you can’t afford a security system. Fuck that. I’ll get it installed.”
From the tone of his voice, she knewthatdiscussion was over.
“I wish you were here right now, baby. I’d kiss you real good then shove my finger into your wet pussy.”
Her cheeks heated and she glanced around the area then took another sip of Coke. “The dirty things you say get me going.” She squirmed in her seat.
“And just thinking about you, hearing your voice, and remembering how sweet you taste, turns me the fuck on, baby. I want you to stay the night so fuckin’ bad.”
“Me too. Will Lucy be okay with that?”
“Yeah—she’s cool. She knows we’re going out, remember?”
“I know you told me that, but sleeping over is different and kind of a big deal.”
“If you make a breakfast without eggs and bacon, she’ll be good.” Animal chuckled. “Lucy’s cool. She really likes you and the therapy is helping her a lot.”
“I’m so glad. Doesn’t she like eggs or bacon?”
“She does but she’s fuckin’ sick of them ’cause that’s all I know how to make.”
“Then I’ll make her homemade pancakes with link sausages.”
“Okay, but I’m just warning you that she’ll never let you leave.” He laughed.
“Sounds good to me.” The minute the words flew out of her mouth, she stiffened. Even though she and Animal had professed their love to each other, it didn’t mean that they were going to live together, or even take their relationship to a higher level.
“Yeah, well … I gotta get going. I’ll come to the clinic before seven.”
