“Why?” Frowning, I stare at her closely.

“I don’t know. Glacier just told me, but I figured we could still go out. Maybe go get our hair done?”

“I’m not sure,” I murmur, casting my gaze to the ground. I haven’t had my hair done in a while, and I know it looks like a hot mess, but . . .

“How about we just try?” she suggests softly, coming up next to me with her arm around my shoulders. “We can go, and if you’re not comfortable, then we’ll come back here.”

“Okay.” I nod, sucking in a heavy breath. I’m not sure I can do this, but I’ll try. Delaney’s my best friend and I know she’s been there for me every step of the way. Sure, she’s gotten with Glacier, I haven’t paid attention as I once would have, but I know she really likes him. Maybe if anything, I can make this outing about her instead of the focus being about me.I could do that. I’m sure of it. It gets the attention turned from me at the same time gets my mind off everything. Also, it might just get them to back off just a bit more. “We could do that.”

“Great.”

Not wasting time, Delaney propels me back out of my room, down the hall to where my cousin is already waiting for us.

Why does it feel like the two of them are definitely up to something. Regardless, I’ve agreed to go out.

I hand my coffee mug to a smiling Patsy as I pass her and pull the sleeves down on my shirt. It’s warm out still but since the day I tried to kill myself I’ve been wearing long sleeve shirts to cover my arms. This past week, I’ve been able to go without the bandages, so I’ve seen the damage I’ve done to myself. Patsy and the others had gone shopping for me and bought me several lightweight ones so I wouldn’t get too hot. I thought this was thoughtful of them, and I really did appreciate it. The women here, they understand me and have helped me in a lot of ways. But something still feels missing, and I have a feeling I know what that is and I’m not sure if I’m ready for any of it.

CHAPTER12

SAVAGE

Pulling into the parking lot of the Poseidon Warriors MC clubhouse, I find somewhere to park. I kick the stand down and swing a leg over, coming off the back of my bike. Gunner parks next to me and does the same.

It’s late evening, and I’m more than ready to set eyes on Honor. The whole way here, Glacier’s last words have fucked with me. Bringing up thoughts of my past. I can’t allow myself to think that shit. Not now, and if I had it my way, not ever.

“You ready?” Gunner asks, grabbing his bag out of one of the saddlebags.

“Yeah,” I grunt, doing the same. Slinging my bag over my shoulder, I make my way toward the clubhouse doors already spotting several club members. From the looks we’re getting, this should be interesting.

The Poseidon Warriors aren’t one-percenters, but that doesn’t mean they don’t handle shit their own way. Plus, with a lot of the members being former military of some form, I’m sure they can definitely handle shit themselves.

“Gunner, Savage,” Glacier calls the moment we step over the threshold.

I give him a jerk of my chin, scanning the room. “Where’s Honor?”

“She’s in her room,” he answers. The way he says this has me going on alert.

“You tell her we were coming?” Gunner asks.

“No.” Glacier shakes his head and looks between us. “Delaney and I took her out for the first time today. We just got back a bit ago, and she said she was tired and was going to go lay down.”

“Right.” I nod, but still, something feels off to me with the way he says this. “Where’s her room?”

“Savage, she needs time to rest,” Delaney murmurs, stepping up next to Glacier, looking nervous.

“Someone want to fill us in on what’s going on?” Gunner growls, placing a hand on my shoulder in a warning not to lose my shit.

“There’s nothing to fill you in on,” Delaney mutters, lying straight through her teeth.

“Then where’s my fuckin’ woman’s room?” I demand, grinding my teeth.

“Honor’s not your woman.” Delaney narrows her eyes and glares at me.

“Bullshit, Delaney, and you know it. I made it known at the hospital she was mine before she even woke up. Don’t try to keep me from her now. I haven’t seen her in three fuckin’ months, and I’m not about to be kept from her any longer. Now, where the fuck is she?”

Anger courses through my veins and right now, I don’t give a damn if I’m gonna have to fight each and every man in here in order to get to Honor.

“Savage,” Glacier starts but gets interrupted.
