Those are bikers on the street.

I lean over to look through the curtain from the top. Those are the same bikers that I saw riding down the street at the diner.

It’s one in the morning, and they’re fucking loud. Then I see Roseanna get off the back of one of the bikers. She wraps her arms around his neck, and he holds her close. They kiss, and then she pulls away, smiling. She turns and walks towards the apartment, and the three bikers ride off. I fall back onto the bed, staring at the ceiling.

I can’t believe that she’s messing around with bikers. I don’t know much, but hell, they look dangerous.

Roseanna walks into the apartment. I hear her open the refrigerator and close it. I know that she’s not expecting to find food. I stopped buying it since I work so many hours and I’m hardly home.

Geeze.

I close my eyes and hear her footsteps walking to the room. She enters, takes off her clothes, and pulls on an oversized t-shirt.

“It’s late, and what are you doing with bikers,” I ask in a low tone.

“It’s none of your business,” Roseanna says, walking to the bed.

“Those bikers are dangerous,” I say.

“Don’t worry, I got this,” Roseanna says.

My office door opens, and Demon walks inside, leaning against the door.

“Brother,” I say, leaning back into my chair.

“Brother, are the books done,” Demon asks, crossing his arms.

Demon is the Prez, and my blood brother. He’s the eldest and is working hard to make the MC the best.

It’s been tough for him since he had to step up into the Prez at such an early age. I know that he’s still trying to prove that he got this.

“Yes, it’s almost done,” I say, nodding.

“Fuckintastic! We’re having Church in the morning, and I want you to give the Brothers an update on our return on investments,” Demon says, pulling out his cigarette box.

He pulls one out, hands me the box, and lights it up. I grab a cigarette and light up, leaning back into the chair.

“No worries, Brother. I’m reviewing it again, and it will be ready by morning. Shadow, Spy, and I have been working hard on the reports,” I say, taking a drag.

“Great, I’m going to get ready. Halo is waiting for me to take her out,” Demons says, rubbing his neck.

“Hey, the MC will not fall apart. Go and relax with your Old Lady,” I say, looking at him.

“Will do. I can’t wait for you to get your Old Lady, because I hate to see you alone,” Demon says, taking a drag.

“I’m good and in no fucking hurry to get the fucking ball and chain,” I say, rolling my eyes.

Hell no!

Not when the one I want got away. Where in the fuck are you?

“Motherfucker, you don’t have a clue about how good it is,” Demon says, smiling.

“Yeah, that’s okay. I’ll wait,” I say, nodding.
