I considered this. “Well, Abraham loathes the internet. I could at least give it a try? Of course I would never contact her without asking him. But at least I could see if I could find any information.”
Fizz agreed.
To solve a mystery that was almost forty years old by now? It might be impossible.
What would I even find at the end of it? It had been a long time and the MC world was dangerous. What if she was dead?
And I couldn’t even admit to myself the truth. . . that I was hoping somehow if I found his mother. . . that he wouldn’t be a woman hater anymore and. . . might even consider a relationship with me.
Argh,what was wrong with me? Abraham had made it very clear he didn’t do relationships? So why was my foolish heart turning this into more than it was?
I was going to ask him before I did any serious sleuthing, of course, but there was no harm, I convinced myself, in just trying a few simple google searches.
And then, I couldn’t help myself.
I kept going, even past when he usually finished work, and so I was flat on my belly on the bed when I heard an angry voice over my shoulder.
“What do you think you’re doing, Polly?”
CHAPTER 10
Abraham
Coming up on Polly swinging her feet on my bed, looking up mymother,pissed me the hell off.
She jumped up and I could read the guilt all over her face.
“Oh, I was just?—”
Her face was flushed and she gnawed on that full lower lip.
“I was just looking up your mother. I heard that she—that no one knew where she was and I wanted to see if I could find her.”
“I do notwantto find my mother,” I said harshly. “That bitch left when I was 18 without any word. She can rot in hell for all I care.”
“Maybe—”
“What?” I ground out. Polly was the only person who never was intimidated by me. Who I would even allow to talk to me like this.
“Maybe she didn’t leave willingly. Maybe—oh, I don’t know. Maybe she got kidnapped or something? Another MC. . .”
“She went willingly,” I ground out.
“Oh. Well, I’m sorry, Abraham. I should have asked you before doing any research.”
This was a good opportunity to tell her it was time to go. That mentioning my mother was forbidden. That she wasn’t prepared for reality in the MC world. Sometimes people just fucking disappeared and it was better not to ask questions.
But she looked so damn sorry.
“We don’t fuck with other MCs. I want you to stop, do you understand me?”
“Of course. I’m very sorry.”
“If any of the brothers had done that, there would have been a punishment. We won’t talk about it anymore.”
I felt my cock twitching at the way she had twisted around, her shirt riding up her soft belly.
“What aboutmypunishment?”
