I was doubting my impulsiveness.

Maybe I took it a bit too far.

“No, you didn’t,” Vivi said, putting the truck in park. “You look fucking amazing. When Kansas sees you, he’s going to lose his shit. What you should ask yourself is if Kansas has enough condoms because, honey, you are so getting laid tonight.”

I chuckled at that.

“Now quit second guessing yourself and let’s go snag your man.”

Nodding, I slid out of the truck and carefully landed on my feet. Though I was supposed to be wearing flats, Vivi found me a beautiful pair of leather boots that had a sturdy wedge heel in them. Looking down at myself, I smiled at how well they looked with the short denim skirt that fit me so perfectly.

Grinning, I remembered how Vivi cursed me to hell and back because she always had to have her jeans and skirts altered. I wore a black Diamondback tank that showed off my firm breast. Around my waist was a silver snake chain that accented my tiny waist. In my ears were diamond studs that Vivi let me borrow, and a silver bangle around my other wrist. To finish my new look, a brand-new black leather jacket that fitted me like a glove.

Gone was the shy waif of a woman in cream tones and long dresses. For the first time, I truly felt like my real self.

A loud whistle snapped my head up as Blackjack walked over to Vivi, giving her a hug. “Damn woman, I didn’t know you were bringing new meat tonight. The boys will fight over that tasty morsel.”

Vivi winked at me.

“Oh, there is only one brother she’s eager to see. Besides, don’t you have several whores clamoring to get into your pants?”

“Yeah, but those bitches don’t look like her.”

Shaking my head, I said nothing as I walked over to Blackjack and stood next to him. I didn’t know why I felt so brazen, but the way he was drooling and the fact he didn’t recognize me seemed funny, giving my confidence a major boost. Sliding my hand up his chest, I said. “I don’t know, Vivi. This one sure looks mighty fine.”

“Yeah, but he snores.”

“I do not!” Blackjack shouted, affronted.

“Besides, Kansas will rip his dick off if he touches you.”

Blackjack jumped back as if scalded. “What?”

“True,” I nodded, then sighed, crossing my arms under my chest as Blackjack eyed me up and down.

“Shame too. He is pretty to look at.”

Blackjack gasped. “Kali?”

Wiggling my fingers, I smiled. “Hi.”

Vivi was laughing as Blackjack started looking around, making sure no one saw. “Holy fuck, woman. You trying to get me killed?”

“No harm done, Blackjack. Come on, Kali. If Blackjack’s reaction is any indication, tonight is going to be fun.”

Kansas

I watched as my brothers laughed and had a good time for the first time in years. It was almost as if the past became a faded memory. Club bunnies and whores arrived over an hour ago, and since then, the music’s been pumping and the drinks were flowing. It was nice to see everyone enjoying themselves again. Really enjoying themselves all because of one woman and her four kids.

When Kali arrived, it was like someone had turned the lights on. There was laughter once more filling the clubhouse. Children who needed our love and support. A woman who depended on us to make sure she and her kids were safe. Now, I refused to imagine or even think about what would happen if Kali left.

The club wouldn’t survive it.

Sitting at the bar, I nursed my third beer when Pence sat down next to me. “Vivi called. Said she and Kali should be here soon.”

Nodding, I took another swig, letting the malt barely coat my tongue. Vivi had texted Pence several hours ago, letting him know Kali wanted to make a last-minute change. When I asked what that was, Pence just shrugged his shoulders and said he didn’t know.
