Well, he just happened to be the president of the local motorcycle club the Rulers of Darkness who was known for their not so legal activities and the danger surrounding them. The issue?

The little librarian nerd had a temper that outrivaled some men. Heck, she’s scared a few of the toughest I know. What’s my biggest problem with her you wanna know right? Her dorky glasses, tight as sin teddy bear pajamas – sans bra, fiery attitude, and fierce protectiveness made me crazy. I was constantly horny around her and I knew that I needed to stay away from her because if I had her I was gonna own her. That wouldn’t work out so well with the whole Addie thing being in the middle. She made my inner caveman come out at all times. But it aint gonna happen, I can hold back. Now, me keeping myself from strangling her is a promise I don’t know if I can keep…
