“Where too?”

“Juniper Hollow.”

“Where the fuck is that?”

“West Virginia.”

“You don’t want me to go?” Frankenstein sulked mulishly as he walked out of the kitchen with a big sub sandwich in his hands. “I understand. No one wants me around.”

Oh, for crying out loud.

Frankenstein was the biggest fucking baby in the damn club. Standing over six-foot eight and weighing close to three hundred pounds of wall-to-wall muscle, the brother was nothing more than a big ass teddy bear with a brain even if he didn’t know what to do with it sometimes. Fucker was probably smarter than the whole town combined. While we all appreciated and respected the man for what he did for the club, he tended to act like a petulant child when we ignored him. It wasn’t that we did it intentionally, because the mountain of a man was hard to miss.

Thinking his height wouldn’t be a problem this time, I sighed. “You can come,Frank. Go grab one of the SUVs. We leave in thirty.”

I didn’t wait for a response. With Frank, I never knew what he was going to say or how he was going to react.

It was best to just tell him flat then walk away.

So that’s what I did.

Heading up to my room, I grabbed a bag from my closet and started packing what I needed when Gunner walked in, plopping down on my bed, eating an ice-cream cone. “Where ya going?”

“Juniper Hollow.”

“Where the fuck is that?”

“You don’t want to know. Why aren’t you at the auto-body shop?”

“Sarah had another ultrasound visit today. Got to see my kids swimming around in her belly. It was so cool, man. I can’t wait for them to get here.”

“I’m happy for you,” I said, stuffing an extra pair of jeans into my bag. I really was happy for Gunner. Being married and impending fatherhood suited him. No longer the man whore of Rosewood, Gunner took to married life as if he were born for it.

Which shocked the hell out of everyone who knew him.

“Where is Sarah?”

“Left her at the coffee shop with her mom. They are planning a baby shower. Sarah said we’re gonna need three of everything. Don’t see why we can’t just throw them all in the same crib. You know, let them fight for dominance like we did.”

Shaking my head, I groaned. “Because they each deserve their own beds, you moron. Don’t be a cheap asshole. Just do what Sarah says.”

Gunner huffed. “Fine. Did you know men aren’t allowed at a baby shower? I love a good party. They are my kids, too.”

I couldn’t with him today. He was all over the map. Fucker wasn’t happy unless he was the center of attention. Had news for the former man whore. He would never be the center of attention ever again. “Gunner, the baby shower is for the mother.”

“Well, that’s not fair.”

“Get used to it. Life isn’t fair.”

“God, you’re in a mood. What’s wrong?”

“I’m going to Juniper Hollow. That should explain everything.”

Gunner shrugged his shoulder, getting to his feet. “Okay. Well, have fun!”

Fucking idiot’s head was so far up his own ass he was shitting pink and blue streamers. The second he learned he knocked Sarah up, it was game over. The fucking man whore of Rosewood grew a pair of balls and finally manned the fuck up and did the right thing. Who would have thought it possible? Not me. I expected to wake up one day to learn some husband or father shot my brother’s dick off.

Then again, Sarah’s father, Mike, almost did just that.
