I step back, keeping my hands on her arms. “You do know it’s been almost six years since everything happened, right? You can’t still be taking your anger out on Vinny. You need to let it go completely.”

“I know,” she whispers.

I step away from her look around for the kids and see them playing dolls in the living room. “Want me to call them to come eat?”

“Yeah, that would be great. Thanks.”

“Where’s Vinny this morning?”

“Oh, he’s at the clubhouse. Jasper was supposed to be on call for something, but with Eden in the hospital having the new baby he’s not leaving her side just yet,” she says. We got a phone call early this morning about Eden going into labor, instead of going up to the hospital, Jasper asked if we could just hang back, until after they get home. Then we can all storm over and see the new baby.

“How’s Jasper feeling about all those girls?”

Lilly burst out laughing. “He’s gonna go insane, I tell yah. He already has three girls, now he has another one.”

I giggle alongside her, laughing loud.

“Okay, kiddos, time to eat,” I call into the living room and Rose and Elizabeth come running.

We all sit at the table and eat while the girls talk about the new Monster High doll coming out.

I look at Lilly as they are talking. “Aren’t those dolls for older kids?”

She shrugs. “Yeah, but they love them. What can ya do?” Those dolls creep me out.

“Where is Gavin?” I ask, finally noticing he’s not here.

“Oh, he left with Vinny. Said he may as well jump right on in.”

“Good, I wasn’t the only one that wanted out of the mess I was in. I was shocked when he came to me wanting to help.”

“He seems like a good guy.”

I smile. “He is, I’m not completely sure what exactly he did in the club before, he was always a little scary to me. Over the last few months, getting to know him, he’s actually a great guy,” I tell her.

She looks at me for a moment. “You guys have a thing?”

I burst out laughing. “No, he’s grown on me, sort of like a brother.”

She smiles, giving me a sly look. “What about Trevor? I saw you talking with him a bit last night.”

I blush. “He’s hot. He was nice. But I’m not looking for someone right now.”

Lilly nods. “You will eventually. And trust me, Trevor is amazing. Little on the skinny side of things, but trust me, when you’re ready, it’ll happen.”

Shaking my head at her I turn back to my plate and start eating. I don’t need a man, not when the only man I ever did need, died, and I’m trying to get rid of the one I currently have, but finding someone for me seems to be the mission the girls are on. I don’t want to be mean and tell them to just back off, so instead, I just ignore it.

Chapter 6

Hangman

Afuckin’ week. Vicky’s been gone a fuckin’ week, and I have no damn clue where she is. Her mother said she didn’t even know she was leaving. I didn’t want to believe her, I wanted to smash my gun in her face until she told me the truth, but one thing is for sure, she wasn’t lying.

I’m sitting at the bar, watching two of our new girls dancing and making out with each other on our stage, giving us all a grand fuckin’ show, when Rage comes over. I adjust my jeans, and turn away from the bitches on stage.

“I need a mouth, think you can send your Old Lady over?” I ask him. Around here, not even Old Lady’s are off limits, to most of us anyways, we share. And one thingI know for sure isthat Megan has a great fuckin’ mouth, I don’t even give a fuck that she was my step mother at one time.

“Yeah, in a sec, wanted to ask if you saw Scraper? Haven’t seen him in a week. I’ve asked around, no one has.”
