His angel and their princess (Rider of Poseidon #1)

"Speaking of the pretty lady, how is it going for the two of you?" He asked, and Gunner could imagine the smirk all the way to him. Gunner couldn't help but smile when he thought back on her saying okay to go on a date with him.

"Well, after a short and not so much of a fight, she said yes to a date with me. I kissed her a few days ago while drunk, not one of my proudest moments," Gunner said and petted Tie's head as he walked over to his owner.

"Congrats, man. If she put up with you as drunk, she's a keeper," Wyatt joked. It made Gunner laugh a little. He already knew she was a keeper but hearing his best friend say it made it real.

"I know," He just answered.

After a few minutes of talking about work, he and his friend ended the call, and Gunner decided to go out with his dogs. The sun was starting to go up, and they started to become restless.

The walk wasn't bad, people around the city were rushing around while others already had started to work. When Gunner came back to the motel, he went over to Athena's door and knocked on it. He heard some shuffling behind it before it opened up, reviling Athena with wet hair. She held a towel in her hand and began to dry her long locks.

"Morning biker, going on a walk?" She asked and looked down at the three dogs sitting by the tall man.

"Nope, already been out with them wanted to see if you were ready to eat some breakfast before going," Gunner said, and Athena wrinkled her forehead.

"Why up so early, are you a morning person?" Athena asked.

"Sometimes yeah, it's just easier to do stuff in the morning at the mc when everyone is sleeping," Gunner answered. Athena smiled light.

"Sounds logical, will be out in five," She lastly said before closing the door. Gunner went to the door next to hers to let the dogs in. He put his long hair up in a bun and put the cut on before packing the few things he had packed up the night before.

When he was all done in the room, he took the bag and the dogs out to the car. While getting them into their cages, Athena turned up and put her bag into the car.

"Ready for breakfast now," She said. While walking into the dining room, Gunner couldn't help but look down at the perfect ass Athena had. All he wanted to do was to slap it and see her reaction. But when Gunner came to his senses, he almost walked right into Athena when she stopped at the end of the breakfast line.

The breakfast was uneventful, and it didn't take long before they finished up and went out to the car again. When they sat in their seats, Gunner looked at the digital clock in the car. 8:56. They should be awake now, and if not, they sure will be soon.

Neither of them spoke on the drive to Gunner's parents. He knew the way, and every kilometer closer he came made his stomach ache even more. He felt sick and angry. It almost felt like going to war, the same feeling he had the first time he had to kill someone or the same feeling he had all those years ago when his parent threw him out like trash.

Once he was outside his childhood house, he almost saw red. This was the place he never wanted to go back to. The house was big with 8 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. The front yard looked even more perfect now than ten years later, and it was four cars outside the house already parked perfectly in a line.

"This is it?" Athena asked, looking out at the white house. They saw the family sitting in the kitchen having breakfast together, almost like every other family.

"Yeah," Gunner groans out. Athena put a hand over his hand, a bit unsure.

"I am here, give me the signal, and I will kick their asses for you," She said, and Gunner couldn't help but appreciate the strong woman next to him. They got out of the truck and let the dogs out. Gunner was aiming to scare the living hell out of his parents. The mc cut was clearly visible, and he had on sunglasses. The few tattoos he had were on full display, and his whole aura screamed danger. The two of them walked up to the door and Gunner knocked hard three times.
