him. I’m sure he’ll be over the fucking moon once the shock’s worn off,” says Lake, kissing me on the cheek. “Welcome to the family.”

I nod, backing out the door. “I’ll let you two talk,” I mutter.

I close her door and rest my head against it. “Why are you creeping in and out of rooms?” comes Blade’s voice. I squeal in fright, dropping the stick. It clatters to the floor and skids, stopping at his feet, and he bends down and picks it up. I glare up at the ceiling as if God is bringing all this shit down on me. “Twelve weeks?” he mutters. His eyes meet mine. “Twelve weeks?”

“Let me explain,” I begin.

“Is it Ethan’s? You said there was nothing between you!” he yells.

“I didn’t have sex with Ethan,” I snap. “Keep your voice down.”

“We didn’t have unprotected sex, Matilda, so don’t fucking lie to me!” he yells. “Unless you lied about the pill?”

“The test isn’t mine,” I hiss. I can see in his eyes he doesn’t believe me. It’s another blow that he still doesn’t trust me. “When will you trust me?” I ask. He shrugs, staring down at the test. “I trust you,” I say firmly because I think he needs to know that. “I need you to trust me on this,” I say.

“Whose is this?” he asks.

“I can’t tell you,” I say. He rolls his eyes and I move closer, placing my hand against his cheek and staring into his eyes. “I promise, it isn’t mine. I’ll do a thousand tests to prove it. But I can’t tell you whose it is.”

“If you’re gonna be my ol’ lady, we can’t have secrets.”

“That goes both ways,” I say. “So when you wanna come to me and tell me your past, or what happened with my dad, I’ll be here waiting to listen without judgement.” I place a gentle kiss against his mouth and go back to my room. I’m keeping my word—I’m not running this time.

“Why can’t he meet your mum? He met your nan,” says Eva.

Lake’s sister, Charlotte, leans close. “Is your mum shit? We all understand that here,” she says. “I’ve only just found Lake, thanks to our shit mum.”

I smile. “No, Lottie, she isn’t shit. With my real dad being a biker, well, I think she’ll have a hard time accepting Blade’s part of my life.”

“So you’ll just hide him from her forever?” asks Eva.

“No, of course not.” I bury my face in my hands. “Jeez, you’re talking about forever. We slept together and now you’re talking forever.”

“You don’t want forever?” she asks.

“Yes . . . no . . . I really don’t know. Why is everyone in this club so set on tying everything down with labels?”

“I think we have ourselves a commitment-phobe,” Leia singsongs, joining us.

“I am not!” I screech. “I’m all for a happy ever after. But if you guys start talking about this in front of him, he might run a mile.”

“Do me a favour,” says Eva. “Just walk towards the exit. Don’t look at Blade, and don’t respond if he calls your name.”

I laugh. “Why would I want to do that?”

“To prove my point,” she answers, smugly.

“Oooo, do it,” says Leia, smiling. “We never get to play with the guys’ heads anymore.”

I sigh, stand, and straighten my hair nervously. I’m not sure what Eva expects from her stupid experiment, but I can’t deny my interest is piqued.

I set my sights on the exit. Blade is sitting by the bar, watching a small television behind it. I march straight for the doors. “Sunshine?” he asks, as I pass him. I press my hand to the door and feel his arms wrap around my waist just as I step out. He propels me forward, out into the bright sunshine, and presses me against the bricks of the building. “Where the fuck are you going?” he growls into my ear, and I shudder.

“I was just getting some air,” I whisper. I feel his cock against myarse cheeks and smile.

“You want air, you tell me. You walking with a purpose towards the exit, gives me some kind of anxiety.”

“You want to walk me around like a dog?” I ask, smirking.

“I want to keep you safe,” he murmurs as his hands wander up my waist and move to my breasts.

“You’d keep me locked in your bedroom, if you could,” I say, laughing.

“Oh, I could, if I wanted to.” He smirks. “Let me show you somewhere quiet out here, so you can get some air.” He takes my hand and leads me around the side of the building.

“You look suitably punished,” giggles Leia when Blade finally lets me go back inside. I feel myself blushing.

“You get my point?” asks Eva. “He’s not letting you go anywhere.” A smile spreads across my face. “So take him to meet your mum. Show him you trust him,” she adds.

“It’s not me who doesn’t trust. He accused me of going to the cops, remember?” I ask.

“Trust builds trust,” says Charlotte.

I shrug. “I guess.”

Chapter Eighteen

BLADE

I don’t know why Tillie changed her mind, but here we are, sitting in her mum’s living room, an awkward silence surrounding us. I was confident I could win her over, since I managed it with her nan, but this woman seems cold. Her eyes assessed me the second I followed Tillie in here, and they haven’t bothered to look at me since.

“How have you been?” asks Tillie.

“Good. You?”

“It’s been a hard few days, since the shop,” mutters Tillie.

“I know that place meant a lot to you and Nan, but in some ways, maybe it was a blessing.”

“How so?”

“You were stuck in a rut. You wouldn’t leave Nan and she wouldn’t leave the damn shop. Now, you can both move here.” Her mum takes a sip of her coffee, her eyes fixed on Tillie, and my heart skips a beat waiting for Tillie’s answer.

Tillie laughs. “Nan would never leave London.”

“She would if you did,” says her mum.

“It’s
