Ares gave Steel a nod, then turned and headed inside along with the others.
Hawk’s low laugh had him snapping his head toward the man. He was leaning against the truck, arms folded in front of his chest and a smug grin on his face.
“Guess you’re gonna need a cut,” Hawk said to Kai.
Kai made a frustrated sound in the back of his throat.
“What does that even mean?”
Steel swallowed hard, then turned to meet Kai’s gaze, and only then did he start breathing again, because Kai was looking up at him with a soft look in his eyes.
He reached up to brush a strand of hair behind Kai’s ear, then moved his hand down to cup his face. Hawk walked past them and when he heard the front door slam shut, he knew they were alone.
“I hope you’re ready for this,” he said with just the slightest tremor in his voice.
Kai scrunched up his face.
“I still don’t—”
Steel took Kai’s mouth in a deep kiss, loving the way Kai melted against him. He wrapped his arms around Kai and pulled him closer. Kai’s hand wound into Steel’s hair, and the touch was as possessive as it was loving.
He pulled back to smile down at Kai who scrunched his brows up at him.
“What exactly is it I’m supposed to be ready for?”
“The club is gonna help you. Help us,” Steel said.
Kai’s eyes widened ever so slightly, and his mouth opened then closed before he frowned at Steel.
“Didn’t that guy just say he didn’t like me?”
“Oh, trust me, he doesn’t.” A smile pulled at Steel’s lips. “But you’re mine, now, and that means you’re under the club’s protection. I don’t know how my brother convinced them to vote yes on that, but fuck am I glad he did.”
Kai
He was still confused as to what Steel meant. He knew absolutely shit all about motorcycle clubs. What little he knew he’d learned from Nic and Elijah and that wasn’t a lot.
“Come on,” Steel said, tugging on Kai’s hand. “You should meet everyone.”
He followed Steel into the building feeling uneasy. This was worse than breaking into Isaac’s place. Way worse.
These people were Steel’s family, and he already had problems with Steel’s real brother, so what was the odds of him not fucking it up with the rest of them? Probably zero.
When they stepped into the living area of the clubhouse, he came to a halt, his heart beating wildly in his chest. He watched as Steel continued across the room, but he couldn’t move. The what-if’s were playing hard in his mind.
A man walked up to him, and he watched him cautiously the whole time despite the man’s warm smile. A few other men and women joined them.
“Hi, I’m Jace. We’ve met before, but you probably don’t remember.”
He shook Jace’s hand and only listened with half an ear as he told him the others’ names, his focus split between them and Steel who was at the bar getting slapped on the back a disturbing number of times. Had they really missed him that much?
He caught Steel’s gaze and mouthed, “Help.”
Steel grinned and gave him a thumbs-up. Bastard.
“Welcome to the Olds Club,” someone said.
“The what now?”
