Where We Belong

Chapter 38

"So what about you Mr Hotshot" I smirked "How long have you stayed here?". Picking up my glass I frowned when I realised I had finished it all. Watching him lift his hand and signal the waiter a new bottle was placed infront of us along with two clean glasses.

"Can I get you anything else Mr Thomas?"

Something was weird. Why did he call him Mr Thomas? Was this place so high maintenanced?

"Ava would you like anything else?" He asked me, again my cheeks flushed. "No thank you" I replied clearing my throat. I wanted to know why this man sat infront of me made me feel safe? A mere stranger yet I felt so comfortable around him.

"I move around a lot so I don't really call anywhere home. Business is always calling" He smiled pouring us both a drink.

"Thank you".

"Must be really boring" I said looking at him from over my glass. "I mean having to travel alot. I'm not sitting here saying that you are boring".

Hearing him chuckle he ran a hand threw his hair "It has its flaws but work is my life, it's all I know".

"So I'm guessing your not the type of guy that'll settle down?" I asked "Marry a lovely girl, have yourself some babies?".

"Depends if the right girl falls into my lap" He smirked "What about you? Boyfriend, married?".

"Ha fat chance" I sighed "Guess you could say we're pretty much the same. I work far to much I hardly have anytime to do anything. Sometimes doing this" I said waving my hand around infront of me "Is all I get. Pretty sad huh?".

"Pretty sad for a gorgeous girl like you. You should be wined and dined Ava. Swept of your feet and taken care of".

"What by a man?" I laughed sarcastically "I don't need a man to take care of me Nate, I'm pretty capable of taking care of myself".

"Wow" He said holding his hands up "I didn't say you weren't but you shouldn't have to babe".

Finishing what was left in my glass I shook my head when he went to pour some more. "I've had more than enough". Glancing at the clock on the wall I cursed when I realised I had been in here for almost two hours. "Got somewhere you need to be?" Nate asked

"Something like that, it was really nice meeting you Nate". Pulling on my jacket I stood up feeling the dizziness go straight to my head. I forgot how fast wine gets you drunk.

"Wow" He said grabbing a hold of my shoulders "Let me drive you home?" He asked checking the time on his watch.

"No it's fine but thank you"

"Ava I know we just met but I'm not going to let you drive or walk home in that state. I'm taking you home that's the end of it".

So domineering yet so freaking hot. Giggling like a school girl I took the hand he was offering me.

Stepping into the cold air I let go of his hand so I could pull my jacket tighter. "How can you drive? You were drinking too".

Eh?

Sighing he took hold of my hand again and walked us over to the SUV parked at the side of the road. Staring up at him he chuckled before opening the backseat door. "Ava, this is my driver Shane". I was so confused right now. He had a driver?

Sliding into the back seat I lay my head back and closed my eyes. You would think after last night I wouldn't touch a drink again and I sure as hell wished I hadn't.

"I'm so confused right now" I muttered

"What's your address Ava?" Nate asked taking a hold of my hand. Opening my eyes I glanced at our hands before looking at him.

I didn't want to tell him because I didn't want him to know who I was. I didn't want the look everyone gave me when they foind out who my dad was.

"Address baby" He whispered

Baby? What the hell was happening?

"Devils Due clubhouse. I'm sure you know where that is" I said turning away so I couldn't see his facial expression. Everyone knows where it is.

"Drive Shane, you know where it is".

Looking at him I tilted my head to the side "Of course you know where it is". I sighed.

"I do, I've been there a couple of times. I just so happen to know the President and the VP".

He knows my dad and Blaze?

"Ava are you going to be sick you've turned really white".

"You know my dad?" I asked more importantly he knew Blaze. "How?" I whispered.

"Franko's your dad?" He asked gripping my hand tighter. "I know your dad because he saved my brother".

His brother?

"Who's your brother?" I asked

"Sean, we don't really talk but I always like to know he's okay".

Sean?

"I don't recall anyone in the MC named Sean" I frowned.

Hearing him chuckle he squeezed my knee "You'll probably know him as blaze".

Feeling my breath catch in the back of my throat I pulled my hand from his. He was Blazes brother? Oh my.. I had to get out of this car. My breathing started coming out in short pants. If he sees him his own brother dropping me off he'll explode.

"Ava are you alright? You look like you've seen a ghost".

"I have to get out of here. If he.." trying the door Nate grabbed my arm and pulled me closer to him. "Are you stupid the car is moving" He snapped.

"Stop, stop the car" I roared "Please just let me out. If he sees you, I can't.. Please let me out". I sobbed knowing the alcohol had kicked in.

"Shane pull over".

Once the car had stopped I reached for the door only to hear the lock click. "Ava please calm down and tell me what's going on?"

"You're his brother. He never told me he had a brother. In fact I hardly know anything about him".

"Baby look at me, are you talking about Sean?"

"I never even knew his real name" I laughed choking out a sob. "Please just let me go. I'll be fine to walk the rest of the way".
