TESSA THREW HER SMALL, black bag onto the neatly made bed and took a look around the room, her brown eyes filled with nothing but enthusiasm. She had definitely imagined camping to be less luxurious than this.

Sure, the cabin wasn't a five-star hotel, but it wasn't just a simple, boring cabin in the woods. From the outside, the little house looked like a rustic spa hotel, well-kept and recently renovated. The spacious entrance hall led directly into a common room with a huge brown leather couch that would be big enough for everyone to spend cozy evenings on.

Together with Lyla, Tara and Gemma, Tessa had also checked out the kitchen after they had arrived. The new appliances and the two large refrigerators together with a kitchen front that was big enough to cook for an army had left all four of them speechlessᅳ which rarely happened.

If every room was designed like the one Happy and she were standing in right now, the Laney woman was sure that no one would want to leave here.

The high ceilings and the many windows made the room seem huge. Also the gentle rays of sunlight that fought their way through the treetops shone into the room, giving it a warm glow.

Tessa timidly let her fingertips dance over the dark wood of the footboard's top rail. The red and brown checked bedspread matched the curtains that hung on the sides of each window perfectly, giving the room a rustic touch alongside the wooden furniture.

"This is absolutely beautiful", she burst out excitedly as she spun around to face Happy, a wide grin on her lips. "I'd love to stay here forever."

Happy snorted as he placed his hands on her hips to pull her closer. "That I have to drive two damn hours when you're craving burgers and fries again in the middle of the night?"

"Hey, I never forced you to get me something", Tessa replied stubbornly, her lower lip slightly pushed forward in a pout as she fiddled with the buttons on Happy's blue and white checked shirt that he wore under his kutte. "You were the one who got up grumbling and left without saying another word."

"Because you were in bed whining and complaining about how hungry you were", he croaked, followed by a deep, raspy laugh that she felt vibrating through his chest as she placed her palms on it.

"Your daughter just has her preferencesᅳ and right now it's fries." With a cheeky grin, she shrugged her shoulders innocently, stealing a kiss from his lips with a content sigh. "You know, we're alone right now", she whispered seductively through heavy eyelids, slowly opening one button after the other until his shirt was open.

A deep groan escaped the back of his throat as her long, black-painted fingernails scratched against tattooed skin after he had allowed her to push the shirt and his kutte off his shoulders, revealing his bare torso.

"How about you relax and let me do the work?", he asked with a low growl, his hands gripping her ass which he began to knead. His lips trailed down her neck, up to her chin until his breath brushed her ear. "Let me fuck you like the good girl you are."

"Sounds like a pretty good idea", she uttered under her breath, her eyes closed to enjoy the feeling of his hands on her body better. "Wanna feel you, baby, please."

"You will, little girl." A devilish grin crossed his features as she shuddered under his touch, her body practically melting into his touch, before he quickly picked her up, walked around the bed and threw her onto the mattress. "Strip, now."

As she looked up at him, Tessa bit her lip as his eyes darkened while they explored her body, studying her like she was the most interesting thing in the world. Like many other woman during pregnancy, the Laney woman had never lost her confidenceᅳ thanks to Happy.

That man had no self control when it came to keeping his hands to himself and sometimes Tessa felt like it had become even worse now that she was showing. Happy still had only eyes for his Old Lady and didn't give a shit about the weight she had gained or the simpler clothes she now wore. He found her attractive and Tessa knew it. That's all she needed to stay confidentᅳ one look from her man.

Her back collided with the mattress as she lay back to follow his order. Watching him closely, Tessa slowly peeled off her black leggings after kicking her boots off her feet, leaving her in nothing but her red lace panties, causing Happy to rub a hand over the growing bulge in his pants as he saw the slick on her panties.

"Keep goin'", he urged, running his tongue over his dry lips. As Tessa sat up and tossed her top to the side, revealing her red bra, he unbuckled his belt.

"That's enough", he croaked, smirking as she was about to take the rest off for him, but he loved seeing her in lingerie, even if it was just regular underwear. "Lie down."

With two long strides, he finally stood in front of her, guiding her backwards with his own body until he hovered over hers and immediately claimed her lips. They both gave themselves no time to slip their tongues between each other's lips, exploring their mouths and enjoying the taste of the other.

Happy bit down to her bottom lip as Tessa ground her hips against his, his cock cock pressing against the fabric of his jeans. Bringing his hand to her throat, his fingers lightly wrapped around it, a low growl rattled through his own as Tessa repeated her actions, rubbing her core against the bulge in his pants.

"You're a fuckin' tease, woman", he panted, the pressure in his pants almost becoming painful. "Told you to just relax and let me do the work."

"Can't relax when all I can think about is you fucking me, filling me out and cum inside me", she whispered against his ear, running the tip of her tongue along his neck. "How about we skip the foreplay and you just fuck me?"

Her sultry voice drew another throaty groan from him as he snapped his hips against hers, drawing a soft whimper from her. "What d'you want, baby?"

Happy pulled back slightly, looking down at her with a pure lust flashing in his brown orbs as she nodded needily, her lips still glistening with a mix of her spit and his.

"I wanna hear it. What do you want, baby? Tell me." He placed a hand next to her head, careful not to put them on her hair, while moving the one from around her throat down between her breasts until it disappeared into her panties. "Fuck, you're dripping."

Two of his fingers dipped into her hole, slowly sliding deeper as he collected her juices. In a comfortable rhythm, he pumped his fingers in and out, enjoying the feeling of her walls clenching around his fingers.

"Fuck", Tessa gasped from above, arching her back slightly and pressing her pale, tattooed body against his. Her nails dug into his shoulder while she pushed her other hand between his body and hers.

After her hand had slipped into his pants, she closed her delicate fingers around his cock. A few pumps were enough for his full length to become hard in her hand, the deep groans leaving his throat making her shiver beneath him. "Hap..please..I want you to fuck me", she whimpered needily.

"That's what I wanna hear", he growled contentedly against her skin, sinking his teeth into it for a moment to mark her. Thrusting his hips forward, practically fucking her hand, he gathered her juices onto his fingers by curling them inside her, rubbing against the spongy spot before pulling them back and placing them against her lips. "Have a taste of yourself, baby."

Her cheeks glowed in a bright red as she slowly parted her lips and allowed his fingers to slip inside her mouth. Considering she once worked in a porn studio, she was still relatively shy compared to others, but boy did she love feeling that tingle of excitement in the pit of her stomach when Happy did stuff like this.

Licking his fingers clean, swirling her tongue around them, she made sure to hold the eye contact, loving to watch Happy's eyes darken and narrow with lust and admiration.

"That's a good girl", he growled against her chin, planting a few open-mouthed kisses against her jawline before meeting her lips. He groaned into the kiss, her taste mixed with that of her juices now also on his tongue, making his cock twitch in her hand.

Happy couldn't wait any longer. The soft moans coming from the woman beneath him, the fact that her glistening folds were waiting to be parted by him and the way she was exploring his mouth with her tongue while her nails danced across his skin drove him crazy.

With a grunt, he grabbed her wrist, took her hand from his length and pushed it down onto the pillow above her head as he positioned himself between her legs that were spread wide for him, her eyes shimmering with anticipation and desire.

Giving himself a few strokes, he pushed her damp panties aside and guided his tip through her slit, using her juices as lube before he positioned himself at her hole. A hoarse groan leaving his throat, he let his forehead fall against hers, smirking to himself as she needily dipped her pelvis upwards.

He gave her a moment to adjust to his length before burying himself all the way inside her with one deep thrust. His cock immediately being swallowed by her warmth had them both moaning and grunting.

"So tight around my cock", he croaked with a satisfied hum. "That pussy feels so fuckin' good."

His hand still closed around her wrist, his grip firm, his other hand moved to her hip, his grip bruising but he knew Tessa loved it, as the small smile on her lips revealed each time.

"God I love this", she breathed out, matching the movements of her pelvis to his thrusts. "And I love you, so much", the raven-haired girl whispered against his lips, followed by a soft moan as his hips snapped against her core once again.

"Fuckin' love you too, little girl", Happy grunted into her mouth before her next moan got swallowed by a feverish kiss, both getting lost in the moment.

The SAA wanted to use every moment they could get alone before the baby came, and the camping trip was just the thing for that.

ᅳ

WHILE THE OTHERS IN THE cabin pretended not to hear what was happening in one of the rooms upstairs, except for Tig, who found it quite amusing and made his typical jokes about it, Gemma had made sure that the children played outside, but expressly forbade them from going further away from the cabin.

To be on the safe side, Chibs and Bobby had offered to keep an eye on them and were now sitting outside with a cold beer and relaxed while keeping an eye on the kids. This way Gemma could prepare dinner with Nero while the rest unpacked their bags and suitcases.

"That was a good idea", she admitted with a hum, shooting Nero a sideways smile as she chopped some carrots. "And I don't say things like that often."

"I told you it would be good for everyone", Nero replied with a smile, knowing that his idea of just getting away for a few days had been a good one. "But I appreciate hearing that from you, momma. Praise from the biker queen herself? I'm honored."

"Oh, shut up!" Gemma whacked his arm with the back of her hand as a laugh slipped past her lips. "You're an idiot."

"Hey, I made sure you guys can have a free vacation and that's what I get in return?" Nero asked with a laugh, leaning his broad frame against the counter. He was silent for a moment, just watching Gemma chop carrots. "Did you plan on telling Tessa that you have Unser check on her mother while we're here?"

"Shh!" Gemma shot him a serious look, briefly looking around to see if anyone else was around as she waved the knife in front of his face. "She can't know about this. Happy and I agreed that she shouldn't have another toxic person in her life, not now that everything is finally going well."

Raising his hands slightly, Nero just let out a sigh. "Okay, Gem, I understand. But I think you can just tell Tessa that you're worried and just want her to be safe."

"I don't know if she would understand." Sighing, Gemma put the knife down, shrugging her shoulders innocently. "She's been through so much shit in her life, and she's only twenty-three. If Unser confirms that her mom is okay, we have nothing to fear. But if there's anything suspicious, we can warn Tessa."

"And you think she won't get angry then? If she finds out that you've been spying on her mom behind her back? The only member of her family who might not want to hurt her?", Nero asked cautiously, just worried that this could lead to a fight between the two women.

"No, I don't think so." Shaking her head, the matriarch rested her hands on the countertop and watched from the large window as Sawyer and Abel collected rocks and sticks together. "It's also important for Sawyer that no more sick people come into his life, the boy has seen and experienced far too much. Tessa would understand why Happy and I did what we did."

Nero turned around to stand behind Gemma and snaked his arms around her  from behind, planting a kiss against her cheek. "Let's just hope that her mother is the opposite of her father, her ex and her aunt."

"It's hard to top that." Gemma snorted a bitter laugh, leaning against Nero, her hands now resting on top of his. "But I have a good feeling about this woman."

"She can't be that bad if she's already tried to get in touch with her daughter after sixteen years", Nero stated logically as he looked down at Gemma. "That means she looked for Tessa herself. And didn't tell Tessa that she must be a great person?"

"She did, apparently her mom's a real sweetheart", Gemma nodded with the slightest of smiles. "Let's hope Tessa is right."

"Right." Tightening his hold around her, Nero sighed contentedly as he enjoyed the view, smiling as the two boys chased Bobby with worms in their hands. "That's nice, I could get used to that."

"A life in the woods?" Gemma looked up at him amused, shaking her head with a soft snort. "Forget it, baby, not with me."

Sharing a laugh, the two returned to their tasks while Gemma got lost in her thoughts. She wanted to believe that Tessa's mother was a good person, but control was better. The twenty-two year old had found a permanent place in Gemma's heart, that's why the matriarch had set the whole thing in motion and, after a moment's hesitation, Happy had agreed with Gemma even though he hated to keep things from his Old Lady.

Tessa, Sawyer and the baby simply had to be protected so that they wouldn't get hurt again. As intrusive as her action was, Gemma still thought it was the right thing to do.
