Landon didn ’ t seem to care. He put the gun
to Pop ’ s head and smiled.
    “ We don ’ t talk like that anymore, ” Landon said. “ You gave up your leather,
remember? You walked away when you had a chance to come to the table. That ’ s fine. Your blood runs through
two wheels, but that doesn ’ t
mean you can act like that. Got it? ”
    “ Yes, ” Pop said and kept coughing.
    “ Hey,
sweetheart, ” Landon said to
Avery. “ Get yourself a
slice and sit down to eat. ”
    Avery hesitated for a few seconds before moving. She slowly
took a slice of pizza and started to eat it as she walked away. Landon stood
with his gun pointed at Pop the entire time she ate. When she finished, Landon
threw Pop to the ground and then took a slice for himself. He bit into it as he
walked toward Avery.
    “ Good
pizza, isn ’ t it? ” Landon asked.
    “ It ’ s really good, ” Avery said.
    “ Want
more? ”
    “ Kind
of. ”
    Pop reached up and pulled himself to his feet. Landon went
back to the counter and took the rest of the pizza pie. He reached into his
pocket and put another hundred on the counter.
    “ That
should cover it, ” Landon
said. He went back to Avery and smiled. “ Come
on, sweetheart, let ’ s have
lunch. ”
    Avery looked back at Pop. He rubbed his neck and then waved. “ Come back again …”
    Avery was flabbergasted by the power Landon had. He walked
into a pizza place, paid the owner off to stop him from killing Avery, then
roughed him up. It was crazy. It was sexy.
    “ Let ’ s hang over here, ” Landon said. He walked outside to
a motorcycle and put the tray on the seat. “ Eat
up. ”
    “ Thanks
for that, ” Avery said. “ Like seriously, thanks. ”
    “ You
realize he would have killed you, right? ”
    “ I
picked up on that after he put the gun to my mouth, yes. ”
    “ How was
he going to do it? ”
    “ What? ”
    “ It ’ s Pop. He offers options. That ’ s his thing. Sex and you die
easily. Resist and you die hard. ”
    “ He
wanted me to …” Avery felt
her cheeks turning red.
    “ What? ” Landon asked. “ Take it up the ass? ”
    “ No, ” Avery said. “ Gosh, do you always talk like
that? ”
    “ I talk
however the fuck I want, sweetheart, ” Landon said. “ What did he
want? ”
    “ Blowjob, ” Avery said.
    “ Okay.
Good to know. ”
    “ Why is
that good to know? ” Avery
asked.
    Landon grabbed another slice of pizza. “ Well, I ’ m out six hundred bucks for a cold pizza pie.
Someone owes me something. ”
    Avery ’ s
mouth fell open. “ You don ’ t think I ’ m …”
    Landon laughed as he chewed. He swallowed and then touched
Avery ’ s face. His touch was
rough and the rings on his fingers made him even hotter. Fuck.
    “ Sweetheart, ” Landon said, “ if I want you to blow me, I ’ d order it and you ’ d listen. I ’ ll find another way for you to
earn your keep. ”
    “ What if
I told you to go fuck yourself? ” Avery asked.
    Landon ’ s
hand slid around her neck and tightened. “ That
would only turn me on more. Now, take that tray back to Pop before I bend you
over my motorcycle right in front of everyone. ”
    Avery grabbed the tray and succumbed to the order from
Landon. He did have a hell of a point. He saved her life. He paid Pop six
hundred dollars. Avery walked away and as she turned to go into the pizza shop,
she heard a voice yell, “ GET
DOWN MOTHERFUCKER! ”
    When Avery whipped around, she saw another man running at
Landon. The man had a gun and when he got close enough to Landon, he swung and
smacked Landon in the face it. He was tall, skinny, and really young.
    “ I ’ ll fucking kill you, ” Landon yelled.
    “ One
through your fucking head, ” the man said. “ One in the
heart. That ’ s the order, brother …”
    Avery sprung into action before she knew what she was doing.
She ran toward the scene, fearing that Landon would be shot and killed.
Something inside her triggered. She couldn ’ t
face the dumb fate
