“Onyx!” He heard the sweet little voice he craved to hear more than birdsong in the morning. Turning, he saw Topaz walked toward him.
She moved up to him, her hands on her hips as she rocked back and forth on her feet. “I saw what Zoe said to you, do I need to kick some ass?”
He grinned. “No, I don’t think you have to. I was a good boy and said no.”
Her lip curved and he knew he had to make a choice. His brothers were behind him and Hollywood was right, she’d claimed him right back without hesitation. There was no question about what lay before them and she understood that.
Bending down, he kissed her right in front of everyone. His free hand cradling her cheek as her hand slapped his ass and gave him a squeeze. The kiss deepened and the room silenced in a way.
“I have to go, Baby. We have church. I’m dealing with those fuckers that took us.”
“Good luck. I’ll be waiting for you.” Topaz kissed him quickly then turned and walked away. She was headed to the bar and he knew she would break down the way it was going to be from now on to Zoe. He didn’t need to worry about that petty shit right now, he had to get going.
Walking into the conference room, he saw that the voting members were there, what surprised him were prospects were standing along the wall. An all member meeting, not just the officers because they would need the entire club to deal with the shit that went down.
Taking his seat, he waited for everyone to sit and Red to start the meeting.
As soon as Red walked in and all the members sat. Red pounded his gravel on the table. “Onyx, why don’t you give us a breakdown and your thoughts.”
Onyx explained about the Carpenter, his thoughts as far as structure of the organization and the possibility between Hack and him they could try to back trace some things.
Red spoke, “I think you’re absolutely right Onyx. These people went after Cream and now, they went after you and Topaz. We thought we had taken care of most of this group, but apparently, they’re growing again, and they have something to prove. We must protect the club and the children. Lil’ Mama, Free, Cream and now you, could be a target for this group. We can’t have them coming here and trying to hurt us.”
Onyx nodded. “I agree. They weren’t kind to me and they definitely won’t care if they hurt a woman or a child, especially if they have any sort of a tan. But allies, we must protect everybody.” Onyx cared about the children and women more than himself. At least, he could handle what they dished out, he didn’t know about the rest of them.
“Hack what intel do you have on them?” Red looked over at Hack who was on his computer.
His hands were flying over the keys and Onyx knew he’d need to learn from the master at some point. The shit he did in LA was nothing like Hack was able to accomplish.
“They have a group together right outside of Berrington and another in Kansas City. They have been on social media and bragging. But it seems they’re looking for old Glen and Stimpy, though Stimpy appears to be named Aaron.”
“They’re bragging?” he asked. “Because they killed me?”
“Yep, seems so, they actually are showing the cabin.” Hack spun the computer around and the smoldering cabin had a banner saying ‘Two down, the world to go’. “You and Topaz I guess.”
“I think we need to send in spies and see if we can get anymore intel on them. Then we can figure out what to do after that. We need more information and that’s the only way I can think of getting it.” Red hit the gravel on the table. “Meeting is adjourned.”
Onyx got up and walked out the conference room and he had one person he knew he would need after all that.Topaz.
He found her in the kitchen. “Come with me, Topaz. I want to take you for dinner. Let’s go into town to the restaurant.”
“Okay, I’m coming.” She waved to the other woman and followed him outside.
He got on his bike. “Get on.”
“I have my car.” She smiled.
“I need you on my bike.” Onyx leaned forward and waited for her to get on the back of his cycle. It meant something to have a woman ride with you and she understood that.
Topaz swung her legs over the back of his bike and settled in behind him. Her hands first resting on his hips until he gave them a little tap and she wrapped them around his waist. This was where she belonged and this ride would be short, but in a way one that would heal his heart more than the long one had.
