“These girls know how to throw a party,” Calvin says as he joins us.

“We do,” Hudsyn quips and smacks him on his back. “It’s one of the reasons I told you to feel welcome at all times. Most certainly after saving all our asses in the waiting room. Damn. I can’t stop thinking about what might have happened if you hadn’t been there.”

“All in a day’s work, ma’am,” Calvin states.

“Don’t be so humble, Calvin. We’re all aware you saved the day,” I tell the man.

Silence lingers until Hudsyn softly says, “I know you must be missing the company of your brothers after stepping away from the MC life.”

Calvin doesn’t show a hint of emotion but I know Hudsyn must be right. I’ve met Atticus and after he stayed for a couple of days to assist with the mess Alma made, him and I had more than a handful of discussions and one was about Calvin.

Their MC handles law enforcement but they also get one chance to step out clean, like Ezra did when he made his choice to be with Hudsyn. Calvin chose to be there for his son while moving back to his roots while staying in law enforcement.

Though I’ve also experienced the bond between members of an MC is more than riding their bikes, running their ranch, and making a living while doing it. Friendship, loyalty, trust, and support are mere words but they give meaning to each and every single one.

Calvin eyes the leather cut both Ezra and Ivar are wearing. They hold the same patch as the ones the women of this MC are wearing except on the bottom rocker there’s a property of mention to show their old lady’s claim.

“Yeah,” he grunts and his gaze wanders off into the direction of where his son is eating a burger right next to Cassia.

“You’re lucky she doesn’t charge like a nanny would,” Zoanne snickers as she strolls our way. “But we all know those nannies aren’t in the same league. Cassia is one hot momma. Just look at those two smiling.”

Calvin ignores the comment and grunts, “Excuse me,” and slinks away into the direction of Kai and Cassia.

“Are you excited?” Hudsyn asks and shoots a grin over my shoulder.

“Me?” I wonder out loud.

Ivar smacks my back. “This party is because of you, my man.”

Confused I glance around, wondering what the hell is going on.

“Yes, it is,” Ramona says as she comes strolling toward me.

She’s holding a box in her hands instead of a plate filled with a juicy steak. Instinct lets me know what’s inside and still I can’t believe the woman is handing me her claim as she opens the box and shows me the leather cut inside.

I reach out but let my hand hover over the smooth leather holding the words “Property of Ramona.”

Ramona grabs the leather and lets the box fall to the ground. She holds it up for me and I quickly turn to let her put it on me. The smell of leather assaults my senses and I turn to pull my woman into my arms.

My mouth covers hers letting every emotion pour into the kiss I’m giving her, not caring one single bit who is standing around to see. Cheers flow through the air along with loud applause.

I pull back and relish in the dazed look on her face. I gently brush my nose against hers and murmur, “I love my cut, love your claim: I love you.”

She returns the brush against my nose. “I love you in that cut, love the way you accept my claim,accept me. For it is I who loves you.”

“Luckiest man in the word, right fucking here,” I mutter and swoop her into my arms.

I’m about to kiss her again but Cassia’s words ring loud when she says, “Get a room if you’re going to kiss again, there are kids present!”

Laughter rips out and we chuckle right along with them.

“I have another surprise for you,” she whispers in my ear and my dick immediately stands to attention.

“You do?” I ask with a husky voice.

“Yes, but it will have to wait till we get home.”

I hold my arms out from my body. “I’m ready to go.”
