“You okay, man?” Lash asked.
“I’m getting old.”
“I thought that was something you didn’t agree to.”
“I don’t.” Devil ran a hand down his face. “Trust me, I don’t, but I’m at the age when I’m looking at my son.”
Lash leaned back in his chair. “Simon’s turned into a good man.” He had witnessed the young man and the way he was with his children and with Tabitha. Considering he spent a lot of time on the road after killing the son of one of the Monster Dogs MC for raping Tabitha, he hadn’t turned out so bad.
“Yeah, he has, and I know he will be ready soon. Not yet, but soon, and he’s who I’m going to be handing my club over to. I’ve watched him, and he has what it takes to run Chaos Bleeds and not into the ground.”
“Why are you telling me?” Lash asked. “It’s your club business.”
“Because I also happen to know that as much as we both claim to be independent clubs, which we are, we’re also a family,” Devil said. “We’re close, and I know nothing is going to change that.”
“You’re right.”
“So, I need to know who you’ll be putting in charge of The Skulls,” Devil said.
“You can’t ask me that question.”
“I think I can. I trust you, Lash. I know you’ve got to make a choice when the time comes.”
“Dude, I’m not as old as you,” Lash said. “I’m going to be in this seat for a long fucking time.”
Devil laughed. “Trust me, I know, but like me now, I know my days are numbered. I’ve got a lot of years left in me, but the club is going to need a fresh pair of hands. Even if you don’t step down until twenty, thirty, or forty years after me, there is going to be someone to take your place.”
Lash sat back and looked at Devil. “You know who I’m going to give it to.”
“Good,” Devil said.
“Anthony will get this club.”
Devil nodded. “That’s a good choice.”
“But it is also a risky one,” Lash said.
Devil had started to get up, but after his words, he lowered his ass into the seat. “Why?”
Lash hadn’t told anyone about this. There was no way he’d worry his woman. Angel didn’t need that kind of stress on her mind.
“What I say doesn’t leave this room. It doesn’t make its way to Michael Granito or the Billionaire Bikers MC,” Lash said.
Devil nodded.
“Anthony wants to take out the Monster Dogs MC.”
“You’ve got to be kidding,” Devil said.
“No, I’m not.”
“How do you know this?”
“I know my son,” Lash said. “I know he has a grievance with everything that went down and all the details after. There’s a rage building there, and the truth is, I don’t know if I should burn it out or let it flourish.”
“You’d put both clubs at risk.”
Lash smiled. “And I can tell you don’t have a problem with that.”
