“Tylan, that boy has been given a life no one should have had to experience, especially a child. Aye, that mother of his, she was not worthy of her son or daughter.” Bianca shakes her head. “So many women don’t know what a gift motherhood is.” Her words cause me to rub my hand over the swelling of my stomach. I understand her words far too well.

“Don’t mean to change the subject.” Jenni breaks the silence and the now somber mood. “But what are we going to do with Savannah’s problem?” Her eyes go between Bianca and me.

“I don’t have a problem.”

“Maybe not now, but you might if you don’t let that boy rest.” Jenni quips.

“Please, mija, I’m an old lady, nothing offends me. Even if it’s talk about my son and his sexual conquests.”

“Ha! She called you a sexual conquest.” Jenni slams her hand on the table. “Oh, my goodness! I can’t believe I didn’t think of this before.” She gets up and stumbles down the hall.

“You really don’t need to be hearing this.” I tell Bianca when Jenni’s out of the room, but she just nods. “Really.” I continue to protest.

“Here it is!” Jenni yells. She places a box in front of me. I flip it over and see a bright pink vibrator. “It’s a rabbit.” She turns it to her and then back to me. “It’s the newest version.”

“I’m not taking your vibrator, Jenni.”

Realization hits her. “Oh! No, I haven’t used this one yet. I bought it before I came out. I had the older, overly used one still in my bag. I just thought you could give this one a test drive.”

I’m mortified. I peer up and see Bianca smirking behind her wine glass. “Thanks?”

“No problem, that’s what friends are for.” She places a kiss on my cheek. “Well let’s hope you can give Sin a rest now.” I roll my eyes at her comment.

“I’m not sure my son will be okay with competing with a machine. I think he’s too proud.” Bianca comments.

“I think you may be right.” I respond.

I knew leaving town wasn’t the right thing to do. But when Cut said, it was a possible lead on getting a big name involved with our brand I didn’t hesitate to go. Savannah’s been working her ass off trying to make something of the shop. It just so happened that he was at the shop when the call came in. It's a no brainer, meet the man behind the money and see if we click. We did. The only thing we need to do now is wait.

When Hawk called me and told me that Redding and his bitch mother showed up at Doc’s place I knew there was no way I was staying away. Deep down I know Savannah is safe at the compound, but I’d feel better knowing that I'm there too. That motherfucker has some nerve talking to her like that. She’s no longer his, she’s mine. They both are and that son of a bitch needs to learn his place and fast. I don’t need this shit to affect Savannah or the baby. If he or his actions do anything to put either of them in jeopardy, I’m going to enjoy the feel of his warm blood seeping through my fingers as I gutted him. “Hey.” I greet Hawk on the porch of the clubhouse.

“You made it back fast.” Hawk’s standing there in his normal outfit of flat billed hat, our club t-shirt, faded jeans and his chucks. I smirk, always the pretty boy.

“Did you think I’d stay away?”

“Not at all, man.”

“So what went down today?”

“Nothing more than what I told you. Fucker came up from behind us. Bitch had his mom run interference.”

“You know what this means, don’t you? He’s got eyes on us.”

“I don’t see how that can be possible. This neighborhood is secure. It always has been.”

“Not always.” I give him a knowing stare. Nothing is ever secure. “Something’s gotta give.”

“Maybe he just had Doc’s place watched. He may know her appointment schedule. Doc’s staff may have a weak link.”

“So what does that mean? Does she need to have her doctor appointments here? Do I need to keep her caged like an animal? I’m telling you Hawk, I can’t keep her under lock and key. She’ll have no life here.”

The door opens and a few of the girls come tumbling out, Bubba’s close behind them. Kara shoots daggers my way. “I think it’s time to find a new place to have fun, ladies.”

“No one’s stopping you.” I tell her. “The scenery is getting old around here anyways. Time for something fresher, younger.” I throw in a knowing insult.

She stops and turns my way. “You think your dick is like the Holy fucking Grail. It’s not. Never has been, never will be. I don't give a fuck where you stick your dick nowadays.”

“Kara.” Bubba stops her by grabbing her by her shoulder and pushing her forward. “Let’s get out of here.”
