in her palm making the bandage awkward, and fought the urge to lean down and kiss her. She was cute but tempting in his helmet, her face smiling up at him as her head wobbled until she became used to the weight.
    “I’ve never been on one of these before.” She revealed, and he felt his heart melt again.
    “You’re going to love this. I promise.” He pecked her on the nose to appease his burning urges and helped her get on.
    He climbed on himself and started the bike. He heard her gasp as the engine came to life with a loud roar and a vibrating purr.
    “All you have to do is hang on and go with the tilt of the bike. Don’t get jumpy or lean in too much, but don’t fight the urge to lean a little. You’ll get the hang of it quickly.” Zare told her as he put his own helmet on. He settled down onto the bike and went to work. It was time to make Jane fall in love with the bike.

    J ane let her hands settle at his waist and she felt how very powerful he was even though his clothes. Lean muscle and flesh met the touch of her hands and her thighs. She’d never been so intimately close to a person while being driven around and it was a novel sensation. As he drove them into the darkness of unlit streets, the warm air rushing over and around them, Jane felt herself begin to relax.
    She’d been thinking about that night she’d spent with him since he offered to take her out of the bar, and when she’d felt the vibration of the bike a pleased responding purr had started in her chest. But as the ride went on she settled in, and let the drone of the engine and Zare’s reassuring presence lull her into a quiet place.
    Jane had worried that she’d turn into some kind of horny monster on the back of the bike but instead she fell into a place where she had thoughts but they didn’t matter. She was one with the bike, with Zare, and with the wind. She’d found a peaceful place where nothing could intrude and she clung to Zare as she let her troubles melt away for the moment. She’d feel guilty if she could but in that moment, with only a single headlamp to light their way, she was in her own world and she could be selfish for a little while.
    Jane felt her brain clearing and her body relax, her breathing slowing down, and her heart rate settling down to a normal pace she hadn’t felt since she’d first taken Charlie to the doctor. This was peace and she understood now why so many people fell in love with this lifestyle. She was free for the moment, for the time that the wheels thrummed on the road and the engine roared through the night.
    Jane was surprised when they pulled up to her house and she realized they’d been riding for an hour. And Zare was speaking words at her as soon as he turned the engine off. She knew because she could feel his chest rumbling but the words just didn’t register. She snuggled into him some more, her arms wrapping more tightly around his waist.
    She heard him chuckle before he stepped away. Zare helped her down from the bike and Jane pulled him over onto her garden swing. A gift from a friend the swing had almost become her refuge when she came home from work. She’d often swing in it for a bit before she went inside. She was still buzzing from the ride and she wasn’t ready to go in yet. Here under the moon reality still couldn’t intrude and Zare might kiss her.
    She rested her head against his shoulder and this time when he started to speak the words finally made sense. As the words sank in she sat up and gaped at Zare.
    “You want me to marry you? What the hell for?” She asked, staring at him in shocked amazement.
    “For my own reasons, I need a wife. Quickly. You need money to take care of your brother. I wouldn’t make any demands of you but that you always maintain the integrity of who we are, who I am, and my family. No flagrant affairs, no bad behavior, just stay who you are and make sure the world believes you are my wife. I’d like us to actually make an attempt at
