The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chapter 139\u00a0<\/p>\n
Good morning, Ath. I decided to deliver this one myself,\u201d he said with that crooked smile that used to make my teenage heart flutter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I took him in properly for the first time. He was wearing a black shirt and black pants, and the combination made him look devastatingly handsome. How\u00a0<\/p>\n
could someone look so good in something so simple?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018Good morning, Tristan. What are you doing here?\u201d I asked, raising my eyebrow but unable to hide my smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I wanted to drive you to work. Don\u2019t want you stressing yourself with cabs.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I laughed. \u201cThank you. You\u2019re really being a good big brother.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I was teasing him deliberately, and I could see the way his eyes darkened at my words.\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not your brother, Ath,\u201d he said, his voice dropping to something rougher. \u201cBut I\u2019d love to hear you call me that while I\u2019m buried deep inside you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
My face turned crimson immediately, and I looked around my empty hallway like there might be invisible people listening to us. Tristan had never been this\u00a0<\/p>\n
raw with his words before. Never this direct.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I had nothing to say to that, so I said nothing. I took the flower from him and walked inside to place it next to yesterday\u2019s bouquet.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When I came back to the door, he was holding it open for me, and our hands brushed as I passed through. The contact sent electricity shooting through my\u00a0<\/p>\n
bloodstream.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The drive to work was comfortable, when we arrived at the office, I immediately switched into work mode, grateful for the distraction.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Later that afternoon, I got a call from Derek asking if we were still training for my upcoming race.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That\u2019s when I remembered I hadn\u2019t told him about the change in arrangements. When I explained that Tristan would be training me now, Derek was quiet\u00a0<\/p>\n
for a long moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s fine,\u2018 he said finally. \u201cI actually got a proposal to train someone else anyway.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou should take it,\u201d I encouraged him. \u201cIt sounds like a good opportunity.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, I think I will. Good luck with your training.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He hung up without his usual jokes or flirting, which surprised me. Derek was always so cheerful and easy going, I made a mental note to check on him\u00a0<\/p>\n
later, but for now, I had work to focus on.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After work, Tristan picked me up as promised. We drove to my place so I could change into my racing gear, then headed to his house where he grabbed his own equipment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The racing center felt different when I walked in with Tristan instead of Derek. People nodded respectfully to him, stepping aside as we passed. He had a\u00a0<\/p>\n
reputation here, a presence that commanded attention without demanding it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I went to get Claire from her usual parking spot, running my hands over her familiar curves.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Training with Derek had been nice, patient, encouraging. Training with Tristan was a completely different experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 139\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was intense in ways Lhadn\u2019t expected. He pushed me harder than Derek ever had, demanding precision and excellence rather than just competence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But he also taught me things Derek couldn\u2019t have, techniques that came from years of professional racing experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Though Derek had taught Tristan, but with Tristan, it felt like he was more experienced.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There were moments when he had to adjust my position on the bike, his hands settling on my waist or my shoulders.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Each touch sent heat racing through my body, and I could tell from the way his breathing changed that he felt it too.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He started kissing my forehead after every successful maneuver, a small reward that made my heart race faster than any motorcycle ever could.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBetter, he\u2019d say after I nailed a particularly difficult turn. \u201cBut you can do even better than that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
