“Now don’t go falling in love with me, Benny.” I wink, watching his smirk grow at my playfulness.?
“Too late. Was already planning our wedding… I'm thinking late September would be perfect.”?
“You know I'm a ho for Halloween. Let's make it the end of October.”?
“Anything for you…” Ben says, blowing a kiss my way.?
“Will you stop proposing to Emmy. It’s never going to happen, man.”?
Ben feigns heartbreak and clutches his chest. “You wound me, my man. I’ll wear her down, eventually. She can only resist this charm for so long.”?
I crack up, laughing as Colton throws a punch at Ben’s arm. He’s an attractive guy… In fact, most of the guys I hang around are. It’s a blessing and a curse, I tell you. But Ben’s a little too clean for my liking. He’s tall, with a nicely toned body, thanks to baseball. He’s smart, funny, and he has fucking dimples, too. Since we were in ninth grade, he’s been asking me out, but I refuse him every time. It's now become a running joke between us.??
“YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME!” I hear being yelled from inside the house.???
“Oh fuck, someone pissed off Frankie,” Colton whispers to our group. Just as Lucian and Nox storm into the house like some sort of band of enforcers.??
“Come on, let's go see the drama,” Ben says, standing.?
Inside the kitchen stands Frankie on one side of the island, with Greyson and Lucian behind her. All her fury is being tossed at two creepy-ass-looking guys on the other end of the room, being held by Nox and Ford.?
Normally, Frankie is pretty mellow, so I'm surprised to see her this riled up and invested in what the hell’s happening. Being the daughter of the Rebel Knights Vice President, she knows how to handle her own shit.
“How dare you come into my house and try to steal from me!” she yells.?
“Oh shittt,” Ben says from beside me.?
“It's not—we weren’t…” One of the guys stumbles over his words. You can tell he’s scared shitless by the way his shifty eyes are bouncing around the room. My gaze locks on Nox’s, and he nods to Colton, which causes him to take a protective stance in front of me. It’s cute that he thinks he can protect me. Colton is more of a lover than a fighter. Besides, he and I both know if it came to it, I’d be the one to throw down.??
Ford tightens his hold on the guy's arms, causing him to wince. “Bullshit. I saw you going through Gunnar’s room. What were you looking for?”?
“Ow! Fuck… I wasn’t doing anything.”?
Greyson sneers at the two assholes. “Actually, I don’t think I’ve ever seen either of your faces before. Who the fuck invited you?”?
They're just asking for a beat-down now. Greyson has been in rough shape these last few weeks. According to the boys, his mystery girl up and left him, leaving him a complete and utter dick to everyone.??
They both stay silent, causing Frankie to get in their faces. “Answer the fucking question. Who are you, and why are you here?”?
The smaller guy in Ford’s hold finally cracks when he twists his arm again. “Fuck, man. Okay, okay... My buddy here got into some shit, and we were asked to scope out the place as a means of payment.”?
“The fuck does that mean?” Nox growls.?
“The Sinners… Ow! Fuck, you’re going to break my arm!”?
“Why the hell would the Sinners MC send you two shitheads to snoop around my house?” Frankie questions, her hand grasping onto the guy's face so he can look directly into her eyes, black nails digging into his cheeks. Damn, she’s looking fierce as hell. I can feel the anger radiating off of Lucian from here. When I said he’s protective, I meant it. Especially when it comes to those he cares about.?
“They wanted to know your dad’s supplier or some shit… I don’t know.”?
“That’s bullshit, and you know it. You wouldn’t be snooping around here for that information. You know what, I’ve had enough of this,” Frankie says, eyeing Greyson. “Why don't we deliver these two to the clubhouse and let the guys deal with them?”?
“Sounds like a plan,” He smirks and eyes his boys. Within moments, Greyson, Ford, and Lennox are gone, leaving Lucian to finish combing through the partygoers for any other unwanted guests.?
“Well, that certainly was a buzzkill. You ready to head out?” Colton asks once the chaos calms around us.?
“Yeah, definitely killed my vibe.” Agreeing, I grab my coat and bag, slinging it over my shoulder.?
“Come on, I'll give you guys a ride home,” Ben offers.?
