    About this ebook

    All it takes is one night to change everything.
    Pie and Lindsey have an unconventional friendship—and they have an agreement to help each other find a partner. But Pie’s not interested in finding anyone, and he certainly doesn’t want to see Lindsey with another man. Then one night, when Lindsey is trying to broaden his horizons, the dynamic of their friendship shifts, and there’s no turning back, even though Lindsey is afraid to face the changes.

    When Pie goes to Lindsey to face the issue, he finds her being viciously attacked by her boss, and Pie snaps. Killing her boss is the only solution, but now he has a dead body on his hands. Now Lindsey has to be strong so no one finds out the truth of what Pie did. She’ll protect him and the Trojans MC with her life.

    With nowhere to hide anymore, Lindsey has to face the fact she’s in love with Pie. They are no longer just friends, and Pie’s a greedy bastard. He wants Lindsey as his old lady, as his wife, in his bed, pregnant with his child, and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to get her there.

      Trojans MC, 9

      Sam Crescent

      Copyright © 2018

      Chapter One

      She’d be amazing, Lindsey said, bobbing her head to the beat of the music filtering through the bar. They were not at the Trojans clubhouse but had gone into the city to enjoy one of the many dance clubs that they have to offer. A few of the guys had agreed to tag along, not that Pie was interested in what they were doing.

      Glancing over at where Lindsey pointed, he saw a brunette, swaying her hips, giving him the eye, and there was no interest there at all, not from him. Nope.

      Seriously? Like, what is wrong with her?

      Too skinny.

      Lindsey burst out laughing. He loved the sound and often tried to make her do so whenever he got the chance. You’re a hoot, you know that? So funny. You’re probably one of the few men complaining about that.

      I like a woman with curves.

      She thrust her chest out. My curves, or bigger?

      I kind of like yours. They’re okay.

      Wow, you’re all for the compliments tonight, aren’t you? I feel really special right now.

      You really should. I don’t compliment just anyone.

      Again, she chuckled, taking a sip of her drink and glancing around the room. I don’t know. She wrinkled her nose. I’m wondering if we need to change countries for you to be the least bit interested in what’s on offer. Sometimes beggars cannot be choosers, just FYI.

      He rolled his eyes, looking out over the dance floor.

      Lindsey had made him wear his leather jacket as they came out chick hunting. They’d been doing this for some time now, and she’d even tried to get him to hook up with a chick from another club during the disaster of a picnic the Billionaire Bikers hosted. Pushing those memories to the back of his mind, he tried to find an interest in the women in the club, and nothing.

      You’re starting to scare me, just so you know.

      Why am I scaring you?

      It shouldn’t be this hard for you to find someone to fuck.

      I’m not just looking for someone to fuck, Lindsey.

      I know. I know. We’re in the market to find our soulmate, but you know, a lot of fucking needs to happen.

      He shook his head.

      Hey, excuse me, she said, to a couple passing. It was a man and woman who were sending smoldering looks at each other.

      Pie didn’t know why Lindsey was so obsessed over this, but he didn’t argue with her. What was the point?

      What’s up? the guy asked.

      My friend and I are having a little argument. He doesn’t think sex is important when it comes to meeting people. I, on the other hand, do. What are your thoughts?

      Lindsey, even after nearly a year, didn’t have a filter. He’d tried to get her to see sense, but no matter what he did, nothing seemed to stick with her, and it was kind of frustrating. The only problem was he found her kind of frustratingly cute. Like, really fucking cute.

      Sex is a must, the woman said.

      Yeah, it’s right up there, man. You don’t want to start something that may not last, you know.

      Thank you, Lindsey said, cocking her head to the side, looking smug. I rest my case.

      The two people moved on, and Pie took a sip of his beer. Two people do not make a good assessment.

      Give me two people that you know could have made it without sex.

      Duke and Holly. He named his Prez and his Prez’s girl.

      Lindsey burst out laughing. You’re joking, right?

      Nope.

      They don’t count. They eye-fuck each other just walking in a room.

      And it was like that from the start, thank you very much.

      Ugh, I give up. She dropped down from her stool and grabbed his hand.

      What are you doing?

      I’m taking you to dance because I’m bored of arguing with you, and I can’t seem to get you interested in any of the women here.

      She led him onto the dance floor and just like in the movies, the song slowed down. Lindsey didn’t have a problem with that, putting his hands on her hips and holding him close. She rested her head against his chest.

      In a short time, Lindsey had become his best friend. They were so close, and they had formed a kind of bond, which was strange as he never recalled being this way with anyone, least of all a chick.

      They had a deal though.

      So far, neither of them had succeeded in finding the one woman or man for them. What he had discovered was Lindsey was very … open. She loved both men and women and didn’t have a problem voicing her approval.

      This is nice, Lindsey said.

      Yeah, it is. He rested his cheek against her head, ignoring Dime, Landon, and Floss as they smirked over at him.

      The club had their own thoughts when it came to his relationship with Lindsey. He didn’t give a fuck at all what they thought. He liked her, a lot.

      What about the blonde next to us? Lindsey asked.

      No. He didn’t even bother looking.

      Lindsey had placed her hands beneath his leather jacket and was stroking the base of his back. They were swaying to the music, and it suddenly stopped and something upbeat came along.

      He gritted his teeth but played along, dancing with Lindsey as she withdrew from him to suddenly beat her head and body, bouncing up and down so that her tits were all over the place. She had opted for no bra, and it really fucking showed.

      Some of the men were looking over at her, but he knew she could more than handle herself. That was what Lindsey did. She looked all sweet, innocent, and at times a little on the dumb side, but she had a sharp mind and wit that always surprised everyone. Also, she knew how to throw a mean fucking punch.

      After ten minutes on the dance floor, she gave him a grimace. Got to pee.

      He walked off the dance floor to find Dime and Landon already waiting for him. Floss was nowhere to be seen.

      Do I even want to know? he asked.

      Fucking some chick behind the back of the bar. He’ll be back in a minute, Dime said.

      Good for him. Pie took a swig of his beer, glancing toward the toilets to make sure Lindsey was okay. The last thing he wanted was for something bad to happen to her. This was supposed to be a night of fun, and he refused to cramp her style.

      Why don’t you just admit that you want her? Landon asked.

      Oh, fuck, I thought we agreed not to delve into that shit.

      Pie looked from Dime to Landon.

      She’s my friend, he said.

      Bullshit. You and Lindsey have pretty much been glued at the hip for over a year now. You can’t tell me that doesn’t mean something, Landon said.

      He glared at Landon. You and Zoe were friends.

      Please, I guarded her for Raoul. She’s a friend. Nothing more.

      Yet you seem to think you can question my friendship with Lindsey.

      Landon, don’t, Dime said.

      No, let him speak. I want to know what the fuck he keeps on saying. What he thinks I want to hear. He stared at Landon. The man had been part of the Trojans for some time and he’d worked his way from the patch up. He had a lot of respect for him, just like he did for all of his brothers, but right now he was pissed off.

      You want her, Pie. Instead of sitting around pretending, just take her. You know you want to. What are you going to do if she finds what she thinks of as her Mr. Right? You’re just going to accept that?

      Pie didn’t even like the sound of that. Glaring at Landon, he didn’t have anything else to say. He and Lindsey were friends. They got along better than most, and yes, they were on a mission to find each other’s partners, but that didn’t mean shit, at least it didn’t to him.

      All done. Whoa, what is with all the tension? I can feel it coming off you guys. You arguing over something? Lindsey asked, joining them again.

      Yeah, we’re always arguing over something, baby. Don’t worry your head about a thing. Come on, dance with me, Landon said.

      Pie continued to grit his teeth as he watched Landon take her hand without even waiting for her to answer, leading her onto the dance floor. Lindsey didn’t put up a fight. She laughed at something he said, shaking her head at the same time. He didn’t like that Landon’s hands were on her hips, touching her in any way.

      You know you’re going to break that bottle, Dime said.

      He loosened his grip that he didn’t even realize he had. Sorry, man.

      Don’t worry about it with me. Landon is just being a shithead, you know. It’s what he does.

      Fucker better learn to keep his thoughts to himself, and his hands. If Landon touched Lindsey’s ass, Pie was going to fucking kill him. He had a gun on him as well, and he could do it.

      ****

      What’s going on? Lindsey asked, looking up at Landon. The man was tall and ripped, but he was also younger than she liked as well. She didn’t have many limits, but she found she didn’t really gel with younger men. They were all about pushing boundaries. She knew she had so few, but also she didn’t like it when guys tried to push them. It just wasn’t for her.

      Nothing is going on, babe.

      Cut the crap. Pie looked like he wanted to kill you. Dime didn’t look any better either. What was with all the shit?

      Just talking guy stuff.

      Your guy stuff sucks, just so you know, and it’s BS.

      Why don’t you ask Pie? You and him seem to be getting cozy. He stroked his hand down her back, heading toward her ass.

      Shaking her head, she grabbed his hand and pulled it back up. Not going to happen, boy-o.

      I thought you liked sex?

      I do like sex. A lot of sex, and I’m not ashamed of that.

      What’s the problem then? he asked.

      She stared at Landon. They were not close at all, but he’d always been pretty civil to her, so she didn’t understand the sudden attitude. What is your problem?

      I don’t have a problem.

      Sounds like you do. Whatever it is, get over it or talk about it, but don’t stir shit just because you can. That’s not fun, or fair to anyone else.

      When did you get all advice like? Landon asked.

      I’m just speaking as a friend.

      We’re not friends.

      She rolled her eyes. You know what? Fine. Be a pain in the ass. It’s not my problem at all. I’ve got other things to do, and they’re not dancing with you. She made to pull away, but he wouldn’t let her. Let go.

      Do you have a thing for Pie?

      Glaring at him, she brought her foot down on his, making sure to use her heel so he’d let her go. She didn’t like it when men used force to keep her in place like this. There was the right time for some kinky play, but not on the dance floor and certainly not talking about your friends.

      Landon winced.

      It was good for her that he wore sneakers.

      Don’t ever do that again. I like Pie, and it’s none of your business.

      Leaving the dance floor, she saw Pie was watching her, and she made her way over to him. Her hand shook just a little.

      You okay?

      Yeah, yeah, I’m fine.

      Do you want to get out of here?

      Don’t we have to wait for Floss? she asked.

      I’m not his babysitter, and you look like you could use some fresh air.

      Yes, please.

      Neither of them stopped to talk to Dime or the others. Rushing out of the club, she giggled as Pie climbed onto his bike. She straddled the back, wrapping her arms around his waist and laughing. I love it when you go all badass on me.

      You haven’t seen anything yet.

      She squealed as he pulled out of the drive and took an immediate left. More than anything, she loved the rush that came over her from holding onto him. When it came to Pie, she trusted him so damn much. He wouldn’t let any harm come to her, not even for a second. They
