“Something you’ve never experienced, huh?” Razor mocked. Jax flipped him off.
Savage banged the gavel and said, “Alright, we’ll consider Church over. Everyone keep an eye out, and Code, let us know if anything comes up.”
Everyone filed out of the room and Rogue immediately headed for the shop. He had some shit to catch up on, and as much as he wanted to go back to Scarlett’s place, he figured that wasn’t a smart idea. Besides, anticipation would only make it that much sweeter when he finally got her back in bed later.
He walked into the shop and stopped when he saw Esme at the desk going over some papers. “What the hell are you doing here?” he demanded, stalking towards her.
Esme lifted her head and gave him a cool stare. “Getting caught up so I don’t get behind next week,” she answered absently before going back to whatever paperwork she was trying to figure out.
“You don’t need to be working on the damn weekend,” Rogue scolded, hands going to his hips. “Nothing here needs to be done now. Go home.” She ignored him. He growled low in his throat. “Woman,” he hissed.
“Don’twoman, me,” Esme snapped, lifting her head to glare at him. “While you boys were off having your little meeting and measuring each other’s dicks, I came here to get some work done. Karissa took Gabe and Ronin into town for some ice cream, so it’s not like I have much to do.”
“Go grab your man and make that baby you want,” he ordered her.
Esme blinked at him and then chuckled. “Did my boss just give me permission to fuck my man?” she taunted. “Well, well, aren’t we progressive?”
He rolled his eyes. “Whatever. Fury’s probably looking for you anyway.”
“Already found her,” Fury’s voice said behind him. He glanced at him over his shoulder and saw Fury smirking. “I like his idea,mi tesoro.”
Esme gave him a cool stare. “Then you can wait fifteen minutes while I get this finished. I’m almost done, and the longer you two bother me, the longer it’s going to take.”
Rogue rolled his eyes, turned on his heel and stalked out to the garage. Fury could handle her, because he’d had enough of the female sex for awhile. Between the girls and Scarlett, he wasn’t sure how he was going to make it without going bald.
He reached his bay and pulled out his phone, rolling his eyes when he saw the messages from the girls already.
Wren: I really think that since you’re now dating Scarlett you should be giving us an allowance. You know, to keep us from bothering you.
Winter: I second this notion.
Wren: He’s ignoring us. Not very nice, Uncle Rogue.
Winter: I thought it was Daddy Rogue.
Wren: Gross. No.
Winter: Yeah, that’s just icky. Uncle Rogue isn’t as bad, but I vote we call him Uncle Ro-Ro.
Wren: Yes! I like it.
He let his head drop back and he stared at the ceiling in frustration. He was seriously considering shipping them off to boarding school. “Problem?” Fury asked in amusement.
Rogue lifted his head and sighed. “I hope to God that if you and Esme have another kid, it’s a boy. Girls are a damn headache.”
Fury chuckled. “You and me both, man. What did the girls do now?”
“They texted me and decided that I should give them an allowance,” he grumbled. “Then something about calling me Uncle Rogue or some stupid shit. I swear to God I’m shipping their asses out.”
Fury laughed outright. “Shit, that’s funny. Brother, you are going to have a hell of a time with those two. Though, on the bright side, they’re fifteen, so you only have two, maybe three years until they go off to college.”
Rogue hadn’t thought about that. Then he groaned. “Shit, I’m going to have to figure out how to pay for college.”
“As if you can’t afford it,” Fury scoffed. “Besides, it’ll be worth it if you and Scarlett have the place to yourselves and maybe want a couple more kids of your own.”
Rogue wanted to say no way in hell, but the thought of Scarlett pregnant gave him pause. He pictured her round with their baby, and he certainly didn’t hate the visual. Not with the way his dick hardened again. Shit, he had it bad. “Fuck,” he hissed.
Fury grinned. “Not as terrible as you thought, huh? Don’t worry, brother, I’m here for you. You and the other kids are great, so it won’t be any different. And you’ll have some practice when Royal and Harlow’s kids get here.”
