While some of the brothers criticized how she’d chosen not to return, and in some ways, I guess, kept Optimus from his child, I knew that she’d done the best with what she had at the time and her priority was Harlyn. She wasn’t accustomed to our world, she didn’t know a lot about how it worked. All she saw was danger and bloodshed. So she gave up her life here, her family and Optimus, in order to put Harlyn first.

I couldn’t fucking argue with that. In fact, I admired her for having the strength to make that decision. It couldn’t have been easy to walk away and build a life somewhere else, alone.

It was another reminder of how damn strong she was.

A woman with that kind of strength at my side… fuck.

“Lunch is ready!” The deep voice of my president boomed from the patio, causing me to freeze midstep. And there it was, the reminder of why I couldn’t have her.

Optimus had made it quite clear—touch Sugar, lose your patch.

The club was my life, my family.

But Sugar was everything I fucking wanted in a woman. And Harlyn? Fuck! That kid was cool.

I squashed the ache in my chest as I turned around and acknowledged the man who had pulled me in and taken me under his wing, giving me the most goddamn amazing family anyone could ever wish for—a family that I couldn’t walk away from.

“Yeah, Prez. No problem.”
