Amelia however states clearly, “Well, now you know how we feel when we see all your dicks, and yeah we’ve even seen them with glitter on.”
“Come on, get out of here,” Nyx says, and grabs Joan, pulling her towards the door. I follow like a lamb because I’ve no idea how the heck I got involved in all this when I was only supposed to be having a nice, quiet visit!
Walking into the common room following the dick brigade, I come to a stop when Star is strutting in a chicken costume, but she has a rooster following behind her. “Why a rooster?” I stupidly ask.
“It’s not a rooster, it’s a cock-erel…” Star states, emphasizing the cock part.
“Christ, Star, you and Meat get worse and stop encouraging my ladies. They are hard enough to keep on the straight and narrow as it is,” Nyx huffs as she follows her ladies into the kitchen, where they are all laughing about the fun they just had. I take a seat because honestly this is tiring.
Axel walks into the common room and gives us all a nasty look before announcing. “You women need to sort yourselves out, or you will be banned from the clubhouse. Nyx, get them under control. I don’t want this sort of shit happening again.”
Nyx nods, and I can see she’s nearly in tears, so I grab her hand and give it a small squeeze. The ladies obviously don’t like what has been said and are about to start trouble when Nyx shouts, “YOU FOUR, GET IN THE TRUCK, NOW!”
If it weren’t so serious I would laugh because all four drop their heads and meekly walk out of the common room towards the front door. But they look like ducks in a row, but with the strap-ons still in place you could literally lead them around by the dick. I place my hand over my mouth to stop the laugh that wants to burst forth just as Jack chuckles and whispers in my ear. “You said that last bit out loud.”

Jack walks into the apartment behind me, and we both stop when Chaos is sitting at the table with a young boy.
“Oh, here you are. Come and meet Corey,” Chaos says as though this is the most natural thing in the world.
“Hello, Corey,” I respond because what else are you supposed to do?
“Hi, Victoria. Uncle Chaos has told me about you. Can I call you Auntie?” Corey asks, and I side-eye Chaos who is smirking, and Jack who seems to be having a coughing fit.
“Um…”
I again look at Chaos, and he smirks. “Of course, you can. Now let’s eat.”
Jack says his goodbyes, then skedaddles, and I mean he nearly skips out of the apartment. I take a seat at the table and give a nod of thanks when Chaos places a plate in front of me.
“Uncle Chaos kicked my dad in the head. Pow! He was out cold. It was awesome…” Corey is looking at me with a huge smile on his face, and I’m unsure what I’m supposed to say, or how I’m supposed to react, but Corey continues, “Oh, and one of the deputies shot my mom. She’s dead now.”
My mouth drops open and I stare at Corey who is not showing any sign of trauma because his mother is dead. In fact, he is showing the opposite. He looks like he would throw a party given the chance.
“It’s okay, Victoria. Deputy Aaron shot her because she attacked me with a knife,” Chaos adds, and again I sit looking like a goldfish. Mouth opening and closing involuntarily.
Shaking his head, Chaos takes something out of his ear and then taps something on his phone, sending a message I see when I lean forward to look.
“Damn, I forgot that was in my ear. Specs has been listening to every conversation I’ve had since we were at your house, Corey.”
Chaos turns his head and looks at me, then states, “Good thing we weren’t bumping uglies or he’d have been a listening observer.”
That does it. I’m out of my seat and head to my bedroom, where I close the door and thank whoever had the apartment before me and put a lock on it. Oh, you guessed right… I locked the suckerthen sat on my bed, wondering what the hell I’ve gotten involved with.
In my mind, I create bullet points—1. Boyfriend I didn’t have. 2. Boyfriend moves into my apartment. 3. I gained multiple friends. 4. Old ladies with dicks strapped on. 5. Become an auntie. 6. Earpieces and privacy.
Climbing onto the bed, I lay with my head on one pillow and cuddle another. That is how I fall asleep and dream about dicks, kids and running away to Ireland. Why Ireland, I’ve no idea, but it could be better than here.

The next morning, I totally blank the issue of Corey being here. I’ve no idea where he slept and I’m not asking. I pick up my phone and have a message from Star to be ready as she’ll be here at nine sharp to pick me up. Where we are going, I don’t know, and I don’t care.
I ignore Chaos the best I can and give Corey small smiles and the smallest responses I can get away with. I could giggle when I hear Corey telling Chaos that women do this when they are angry about something, and just to wait and it’ll blow over, eventually.
“I’m going with Star this morning, Chaos,” I say because I owe him that much. He’s been fantastic if I’m being honest, and he didn’t need to do everything he has for me.
“Okay. I’m taking Corey with me to the clubhouse. I’ll have to speak to Aaron and find out what is happening with Corey’sfather. I’m going to have a busy day, but I’ll catch up with you later.”
