Nodding, I get up from my seat and head into the kitchen where Lenna is baking with Georgia Rose. Lenna looks up from the counter and hits me with a killer fucking smile.

"We need to talk, baby."

Her beautiful smile turns, giving me a heartbreaking frown. Lenna comes over, wiping her hands on the apron.

"Sure. What's going on?"

I take her hand in mine, bringing her toward Church.

"This is a one time thing, Lenna. We don't normally let anybody in Church with us."

"Okay...? Vamp, what's going on?"

I open the door, pulling her toward my chair. I pull it out, helping her sit before standing behind her. Pres smiles at her before turning to Mace.

He clears his throat and half smiles at Lenna, "Hey, doll. This is fucking out of our norm, but here we go. I have a plan to save your kids, but we need you. You're going to have to go back. You'll have all of us as backup, but we need you to make this work."

Lenna looks at Mace, then to Cyclopes, then to me. She turns back to Mace and nods her head, "Okay."

I bend down as she turns to me, "Okay? That's it?"

Lenna nods, "Those are my children, Vamp. I will lay my life on the line to get them out of danger."

I stand, turning to try and control my emotions. Pres clears his throat and I turn, glaring at all of them.

He smiles to Lenna, "Thank you, you can go back to what you were doing."

Lenna stands, looking to me as she leaves the room. I take my seat and Pres points toward me.

"You good?"

Slamming my hand on the table, I look up at him, "Fuck no, I'm not. I don't want her fucking dying over this!"

Mace shakes his head, "She made her choice. Those are her kids, man. What do you expect?"

"Fuck off. You don't fucking get it. If it was your woman-"

I stop myself before going any further. Everybody stares at me, shocked by the confession I just made.

Pres nods, quietly banging the gavel on the table, "Church over. Prepare for the take down. Vamp...you stay here."

I curse under my breath as all my brothers leave the room. Pres glares at me from across the table.

"Got something you wanna tell me?"

"I love her."

Pres whistles, "You love her?"

"I do, Pres. I know I broke the rule. And I should be punished for that. Not only that, as VP of the club I should hold myself to a higher standard, and I failed all of you."

"So what should we do here?"

I shrug, "Probation. Bitch work. Move Lenna away from me..."

Pres laughs, "Stop bein' so hard on yourself, Vamp. Love doesn't care about rules. Love does whatever the fuck it wants. Sure, you'll do some bitch work for breaking the rules, but I'm not gonna do anything worse."

"Really?"
