Zero by Sam Crescent Read Free Book Online Page B

Prue glanced toward the door to see a blonde eating Zero up. Looking at Zero she knew instantly that he’d fucked her. The interest in the nurse’s eyes wasn’t hard to see.
    A sharp pang cut through her chest. Zero would fuck everything that walked. She had learned from a young age never to expect anything from him, which was why she’d never waited for him.
    “It’s time to move you,” the nurse said.
    Getting up from the bed, Zero moved to the far wall not looking at her. Another nurse entered, and then she was being wheeled out of the unit. She was used to being around women who fucked Zero. None of them ever stayed around, and she’d never known for him to settle down with a woman and rarely saw him with the same one twice. Zero walked behind her. The woman who entered first was still eating him up. Her whole body showed how much she wanted him whereas Zero wasn’t giving her the time of day. In fact, it looked like he didn’t remember her.
    Locking her fingers together, Prue stared up at the ceiling that passed. The only time she’d ever really been close to Zero was when her parents died. She’d been suffering from the worst nightmares of her life. They terrified her, giving her night terrors, leaving her afraid to sleep. Zero would hold her tight, sleep beside her, and the night terrors soon disappeared.
    She hated being an inconvenience. The moment she stopped needing him, he walked away. He never stayed at the house after that apart from when he was too intoxicated to leave.
    He stood beside the wall as they entered the private room.
    “I can’t afford the private room. I thought I was going to a ward.” Her insurance only handled so much of her care while she paid for the rest.
    “The Skulls is paying for this care,” he said.
    The nurses got her settled and left. The blonde lingered a little too long for Prue’s taste.
    “Leave,” Zero said.
    Prue watched her walk out shooting a glare toward her. She stared at the woman, wondering what she expected. Bedding a biker doesn’t guarantee you’ll be in his life forever. Nothing guaranteed staying in Zero’s life.  
    “You fucked her.” She turned back to look at him.
    He nodded. His cheeks were red tinted.
    “Are you embarrassed?” she asked, smiling. She needed to smile rather than cry. None of her emotions made any sense. Zero was a friend, nothing more.
    Do you want him to be something extra?
    “No, I’m not. I fuck who I want.”
    Nodding, she sat up on the bed. Her stomach growled, and it was her turn to feel her cheeks heating.
    “Breakfast will be along shortly.”
    “Thank you,” she said, glancing at him.
    “For what?”
    “For being here for me. You’re the only person I know I can trust.”
    He looked at the floor. “Prue, you can always come to me. I don’t care when, where, or how, I will always be here for you.”
    His cell phone went off, interrupting their conversation. “I’ll be back soon.”
    She watched him leave, missing him the moment he left the room.

Chapter Three
     
    Zero found Tiny, Butch, Steven, and a couple of the others waiting outside in the waiting room. He shook Tiny’s hand and led him back toward Prue’s room. He was so nervous about Alan and told him everything that happened last night. They entered the room, and Prue had a plate in front of her. He stopped as she took a bite of banana. Her lips molded around the tip, and he was struck by the sudden image of his cock in her mouth. Heat filled his cock, and all he wanted to do was push the others out of the room and take her.
    Shoving the images aside, he took a step inside.
    “Hey,” she said, wiping her lips, putting the banana skin down on the tray. Her breakfast was nowhere near finished.
    “This is Tiny, Prue.” Zero made the introductions. She nodded at each of them. He hated the way her gaze lingered on Steven. The other man was not up for sex, at least not when it came to Prue. She was off the market. Zero wouldn’t allow Steven
