Also, thank Christ for the hard case I had on it.

Seeing it was Cam, our VP, I answered, “Yeah?”

“Bout time you answered. We got a Dove,” he said, and the sleepiness I was feeling was obliterated by that one word.

Dove.

I sat up immediately, tossed my legs over the edge of the bed, and asked, “Location?”

He grunted, “Texted it to you.”

I nodded, then unplugged my phone, “How many?”

At his word, I stood up, “One.”

“Who all is going?” I asked as I headed into the bathroom.

“You, Savage, and Heathen.” I nodded. The situation wouldn’t be too bad then or else he wouldn’t have called Savage and Heathen.

“Got it. Can you have a prospect come out here and sit on the front porch? I don’t want to leave Savannah hanging.”

He confirmed he would, then we hung up. I got ready and waited.

But not before I opened the junk drawer in the kitchen, and pulled out a pad and a pen, then I wrote her a note in case she woke up before I left.

‘Angel, got business at the clubhouse. A prospect will be on the front porch. I don’t like leaving you here by yourself. Be home when I can. Z.’

Spec, one of the newer prospects, showed up, nodded at me, and took a seat on one of the dark walnut Adirondack chairs. I said, “Be back quick as I can.”

At his nod, I headed to the clubhouse. When I saw that Heathen was there, we both waited for Savage. He came pulling into the parking lot and then he and I climbed into one of the club’s SUVs while Heathen stayed on his bike.

Three hours later, we had the Dove in the back of the SUV and were headed back home.

And the man that had been beating the absolute hell out of her when we showed up, well, he was currently serving up dinner to a few alligators that were about a mile from their house.

When we pulled back into the clubhouse four hours later because fucking traffic was a bitch, we helped the Dove into Lil’s arms and then we all relayed the events to Powers.

Then and only then did I head home to catch a quick nap before I needed to be at the clubhouse tonight, and I knew I’d also never had a better nap than the one I was about to have.

When I pulled into the driveway, I turned my bike off, hit the button, raised the door, and walked it into the garage.

After I was off the back of my bike, I lowered the door back down and headed to the front porch.

Seeing an empty mug that was one of mine sitting beside Spec, the only thought that ran through my mind was that she better be up, and he better not have gone into my house without me there.

“Everything good?” I asked him as I moved my eyes to his.

He nodded, “Yeah, nothing happened. Your woman brought me a cup of coffee out here when she woke up about an hour ago.”

I nodded, “Thanks for staying.”

He stood up then, tagged the coffee cup, and handed it to me, “You need me to do this again, don’t hesitate.”

I slapped his back, went to the front door, tried to open it, smiled, and then used my key and unlocked the door.

When I got to the kitchen, I put the coffee cup in the sink and then went in search of her.

I didn’t have to look far. She was sitting on the couch, strawberries in a container beside her, and a cup of something in her hand, her eyes were glued to the television.
