Taste of Wolves

Chapter 40

"I need a shower. And to start breakfast." She stated as she ran her fingers through his long hair.

"But I don't want you to leave me." He pouted making her giggle.

"You want breakfast, don't you?" She asked.

"Yes."

"Then I need a shower and to head downstairs to start on breakfast." She kissed his forehead before scooting herself out from under him.

He sighed as he slid off the bed and slipped into some pj bottoms and headed downstairs to make some coffee. Neither of his brothers were up yet, that he knew of. He had a seat at the dining table sipping his coffee and waiting for her to come downstairs. It was during his second cup of coffee that she emerged showered and fully dressed in a pair of ripped jeans and a black belly tank and barefoot. He watched as she began digging in the cabinets to find what she was looking for. She decided on pancakes and bacon for breakfast. As she was mixing pancake batter, Happy emerged in the kitchen. Quinn told him where the coffee cups were earning a grunt in response. A few minutes later, a freshly showered Tig came downstairs in a good mood.

"Mornin' Quinn. Happy. Mornin' Doll." Tig stated as he moved to get a cup out of the cabinet before pouring himself a cup of coffee.

"Morning Tig." She replied as Happy had a seat at the table with Quinn.

"How'd you sleep?" Quinn asked his brothers.

"Like a log." Tig chuckled, "What's she making for breakfast?"

"Pancakes and bacon I believe." Quinn replied making Tig nod silently.

Happy just sat there watching her work in the kitchen. Tig and Quinn began discussing why they needed to be hid for a few days and how they hoped things were going to turn out. Quinn hoped Jax could fix things so they could return to the clubhouse soon. It wasn't that the blond biker minded helping his brothers out. He just wasn't sure how comfortable his 'ol lady was in having them around that long. Tig was curious as to how her day really went. She's already told them her usual routine but he was curious if what she said had been the truth or not. Aria was flipping pancakes lost in her own world. The convention coming up had her more than a little excited and she couldn't wait to go.

Leaving Quinn at home would make her a little sad but this was a convention she never missed and didn't plan to this year either. Besides, being a part for a week would do them good. "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" isn't that how the saying goes? She finished up with the pancakes and brought them to the table. The bacon was almost done so she went and set the table being sure to bring the syrup and butter with her. Her last task was finishing up the bacon. Tig eyed her up making Happy shake his head. Quinn was too busy watching his woman to notice what the SAA was doing. Happy knew a showdown would happen if Quinn ever caught Tig staring so lustfully at his 'ol lady. The bacon was finally done so she moved the platter of bacon to the table and had a seat. The men let her fix a plate first before digging in themselves.

After breakfast, Quinn headed upstairs to get a shower and dressed while she cleaned up from breakfast. Happy and Tig moved into the living room to watch TV since Jax had told them to not leave the house until he was sure they were safe. Aria moved into the living room as well and got comfortable. Quinn finally emerged freshly showered, leaned down to give her a kiss goodbye, and bid his brothers a good day before leaving to head to the shop. The trio sat in silence watching TV all morning. Around lunchtime, she got up to go make some grilled cheese sandwiches for the trio. The jug of tea was nearly empty so she made another pitcher of tea while keeping an eye on the sandwiches. Once they were all done, she moved the platter to the dining table, set the table, then called the two bikers to lunch. Both were a little shocked she had cooked them lunch as well.
