"Damn, brother, you think this guy is the one connected with Alba’s accident?" Logan questions.

"An accident. Alba was… was she hurt? Is she okay?" Sam frantically asks, looking too each of us for answers.

I abruptly stand from my chair causing it to skid across the floor. I can’t take this shit. Sam takes my movement as a threat and stands.

"Sit the fuck down," I growl at him. He has nothing to worry about… at the moment, but he doesn’t know that, so he continues to stand.

Jake takes the opportunity to calm everyone’s nerves, "Sit down, son. None of us are a threat to you. Gabriel here is wound tighter than normal right now. Someone tried to hurt his woman yesterday by tampering with her brakes. Her and the baby are going to be okay," Jake tells him.

Giving me a final glance, Sam sits back down.

"Look," he says, "I’m telling you something isn’t adding up. And now knowing about her accident, my gut is telling me Professor Green has been the guy all along."

He ain’t the only one. My gut is tellin’ me the same thing. We need to find out who the hell this Professor Green is.

I motion to Prez and Logan to walk over towards the bar, leaving Sam to sit alone.

"I need to get home and talk to Reid."

"What do you want to do about pretty boy over there? You know he’s probably going to want to see your Alba," Logan smirks, knowing god damn well the same thing would have already crossed my mind. I think it’s time Sam and I get a few things straight. I’ve done claimed what’s mine and dipshit sitting over there needs to know it. I walk back towards the table and look down at Sam.

"You got plans to see my woman while you’re here?" I ask.

"I do. I booked a hotel room in town," he answers.

"Alba’s mine. We gonna have issues with that? Because if your dumb ass came here thinking you could sweep in and save the day and get the girl, it ain’t happening," I warn him.

"I can assure you, Alba and I are and always will be just friends. She’s a beautiful and caring woman, but she’s not the one for me… I promise you," he assures me.

"Make sure you keep it that way and we won’t have any problems." I warn him.

Turning away I lift my chin to Prez and Logan and walk out the door leaving them to finish up with Sam. The sun is getting ready to set and I want to get home to my family and bring Reid up to speed with our new-found information.

When I make it home and walk through the door, I find Alba and Reid sitting at the table. Striding towards her, I lean down giving her a kiss then turn my attention to Reid, "I need to speak with you, brother." Standing up from the table he takes his plate to the sink, telling Alba thank you. I turn back and face Alba, "Give me a minute with Reid, okay, baby?"

"I’m going to go lay down. Will you come join me when you’re done?" she asks

"Sí, mi amor. Yes, my love. I’ll be up in a few minutes." Once Alba is upstairs, I find Reid waiting in the living room. "Sam showed up out at the clubhouse."

"No shit? That was ballsy of him. What for?"

"Suspects one of the professors at the school of being Alba’s stalker. He was going around asking questions about her then vanished and hasn’t been seen since. Too much of a coincidence if you ask me," I tell him.

"You got a name for me?"

“Calvin Green.”

Grabbing his keys from the coffee table, I walk with Reid towards the front door.

"I’ll see what I can dig up on him. I’m assuming we need to be at the clubhouse in the morning?"

I nod my head.

"See ya in the mornin’, brother."

I wait until I see his taillights fade at the end of the driveway before locking up the house and making sure the security alarm is set before I head upstairs. I find Alba sound asleep in our bed, so I grab myself a hot shower. After drying off I climb in behind Alba and wrap my arm around her, laying my hand protectively over our son. Completely relaxed, a few minutes later I fall asleep.
