The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate
Chapter 94
I turned slowly and faced him. “Nothin…”
Jake cut me off immediately. ‘I was telling your sister I’d love to take her out sometime. Hope you don’t mind.”
I stared at Tristan, waiting to hear what he’d say. My heart was hammering in my chest, but I tried to keep my face neutral.
“Athena is mature enough to know what she wants,” he said, his blue eyes locked on mine.
Something cold twisted in my stomach at his casual tone.

“So if she agrees to go out with me, you don’t have a problem with it, right?” Jak pressed, glancing between us.
Tristan’s gaze never wavered from my face. “Of course not. Whatever she wants is what she should get. If she feels like you’re man enough to handle her, who am I to object? I’ll support her as her elder brother.”
Jake, who had been smiling a moment ago, frowned slightly. “What do you mean by ‘man enough to handle her“?”

I heard Jake ask the question, but I didn’t care about his confusion. My entire focus was on Tristan’s blue eyes and the way he’d just dismissed me like I was
nothing more than his responsibility.

Elder brother. I wanted to laugh, but it would have come out bitter and ugly.
So he didn’t mind if I decided to follow someone else.
I was such an idiot.

I didn’t even wait for Jake to get his answer. I just turned and started walking toward where my car was parked, my legs feeling shaky and unsteady.
I could hear footsteps behind me, but I didn’t spare Tristan a single glance as I get into the car and slammed the door harder than necessary.
I drove off without looking back, but I could see his bike’s headlight in my rearview mirror, following me as I sped through the empty streets. His words kept echoing in my head, making me want to scream.
Elder brother. Support her decision. Whatever she wants.
What was I expecting? That after one night, he’d suddenly start seeing me differently? That he’d finally notice I wasn’t a child anymore?
God, I was so stupid. So incredibly, pathetically stupid.
The moment I parked the car in our driveway, I got out and headed for the house Tristan’s bike pulled up right behind me, but I was already at the front door when I felt his hand grab my arm.
‘Ath…”
‘What?‘ I spun around and yelled at him, the word exploding out of me with all he frustration and hurt I’d been holding in.
Tristan actually took a step back, his eyes wide with shock. This was the first tim I’d ever screamed at him.
Our parents had taught us to respect each other, to talk through our problems instead of shouting when we were angry. But it seemed like we were becoming different people since their death, forgetting all the lessons they’d tried to instill in us.

I hated myself the moment I saw the hurt flash across his face, but Tristan apparently wasnt going to let this go. Instead of walking away like I expected, he
stepped closer.
“Do you want to kill yourself?‘ he said, snapping out of his shock. “Why would you drive like that?
I jerked my arm out of his grip. “I was barely speeding.”
Tristan looked at me like I’d grown a second head. “You weren’t speeding? You nearly ran the car into a tree back there!”
“But I didn’t scratch your precious car, right?‘ I shot back, knowing I was actingke a brat but unable to stop myself.
I was hurt and angry and I didn’t even fully understand why. “If you’re worried about the car, it’s fine.”
I could see Tristan’s eyebrow raise at my attitude. Without another word, he walked past me toward the house, but as he did, I heard him mutter under his
breath.
“You’re insane.”
It was meant to be quiet, just a whisper to himself, but I heard every word loud and clear.
‘I am not insane,” I said through gritted teeth, my hands clenching into fists at my sides.
Tristan’s steps stopped abruptly. He turned his head toward me, surprise written all over his face.
“What did you say?” he asked, his voice strange.
I said I’m not insane,” I repeated, my anger flaring even hotter.
“How did you….” he started, but I didn’t let him finish.
‘Someone who’s insane wouldn’t be standing here arguing with you. Someone who’s…”
I never got to complete my sentence because suddenly Tristan was right in front of me, his hands cupping my face, and his mouth was on mine.
The kiss was desperate and hungry, like he’d been holding back for way too long and finally couldn’t anymore.
All the anger and frustration and confusion of the last few minutes transformed to something else entirely, something that made my knees weak and my heart race for completely different reasons.
I didn’t even hesitate. My arms went around his neck and I jumped up, wrapping my legs around his waist like it was the most natural thing in the world.
He caught me easily, his hands sliding down to grip my thighs and hold me in ple like he’d been waiting for me to do exactly that.
We didn’t break the kiss, couldn’t break it. His mouth moved against mine with urgency that matched the racing of my pulse.
I could taste the lingering adrenaline from his race, could feel the tension in his muscles as he held me against him.
He pushed me back against the front door, and I gasped against his lips at the sd pressure of the wood behind me and his body in front of me.
The sound seemed to drive him crazy because he deepened the kiss, one hand taking in my hair while the other kept me securely wrapped around him.
“Athena,‘ he breathed against my mouth, my name coming out as a whisper.

“Don’t, I whispered back, afraid that if he said too much, if we talked about this he spell would break and he’d remember all the reasons why this was a bad idea. “Don’t think. Just….”
He kissed me again before I could finish, and this time it was softer but somehow more intense. Like he was trying to tell me something he couldn’t put into
words.
My fingers found the hem of his racing jacket and slipped underneath, touching the warm skin of his back. He shuddered against me, pressing closer until there was no space left between us.
“We should go inside,” he murmured against my neck, his lips trailing down to that sensitive spot just below my ear that made me gasp.
I nodded, not trusting my voice. But when he started to pull back, to lower me down so we could actually walk through the door, I tightened my legs around
him.
“Not yet,” I whispered, and he groaned softly.
knew if I came down, he might break free from whatever he was feeling now. He might remember all the thousand reasons why he shouldn’t be touching
I wouldn’t give him that chance. So before he could change his mind, I pressed my mouth to his, climbing his lips hungrily, desperate and wild.
