The saying‘If I can’t have her, no one can’comes to mind when I think about the bastard. Last night, he kept quiet in front of the cop, but I’d felt his eyes on me, cool and calculating. He knows what Bristol’s worth, but more than that, he knows the threat against me and mine.

“You know what I’m talking about.” Diablo cocks a brow of his own and crosses his arms, looking ready to settle in for a massive debate with me which he’s known to do. The two of us can go toe to toe with each other and talk about shit, debating it until the end of time, always pointing out different views onwhatever it is we’re talking about. But that’s what makes him my best friend.

“Nothing to talk about, at least not yet,” I admit, not having time for the argumentized debate. “I’ll let you know when I have it confirmed and go for it.”

Diablo holds my gaze and stares at me for a long moment before he blinks and nods. “It’s got to do with Bristol, and you want to talk to her first, am I right?”

“Yup,” I grunt and cock my head slightly, feeling my neck pop. The sound of a loud cracking noise fills my head, and it feels damn good.

“Then I’ll let you get to your woman. I expect to hear this plan of yours tonight.” Diablo chuckles, drops his arms, and moves toward my little brother and the others, shouting out Everett’s name. “Since you’re my brother’s brother, that makes you mine.”

I can’t help but snort at Diablo’s remark. Since the beginning, when we first met on the streets, we’ve been brothers. We’ve been brothers by the streets and brothers by the club. He’s my family, same as those who wear the same patch as me. I guess he’s about to make Everett also a part of the family. I’m not sure how I should feel about it, but I’ll figure it out later.

Now, it’s time to find Bristol and talk to her, see what she thinks. First things first, fuck her in my bed like I’ve wanted to for so damn long.

Bristol said she was going to be with Ivy and her sister, so I make my way to the room Reaper had set up as a gaming room/playroom for the kids. It’s where Ivy can normally be found unless she’s either with Reaper or in their room.

Stepping into the room, my brows furrow, and I don’t see Bristol. “Where’s Bristol?”

Ivy and Giselle both look at me in confusion.

“I thought she was at work,” Giselle utters quietly.

“Everett brought her to the clubhouse two hours ago. She didn’t come in here?” My gut tightens as different scenarios start swirling around in my head.

“No,” Ivy answers, looking concerned.

Reaper comes up beside me. “Looking for Bristol?” he asks, raising a brow.

“Yeah,” I say, turning to him. “You know where she’s at?”

“Yep,” he answers, moves to Ivy, and pulls her in his arms. “Time to go home, Princess.”

“Where is she?” I don’t like the way my Prez answered that.

Reaper hits me with a glare. “Why don’t you tell me why a woman I see as a little sister, a part of my family, would escape the clubhouse only moments after saying she was going to find Ivy and Giselle? Bristol took one of the four-wheelers and took off into the woods. A little bit later, she stepped into the house, and I’m willing to bet she’s in her room where, if I remember correctly, is where she would always go when escaping whatever is bothering her.”

My anger rises at the cynical way my Prez said this, but I bite my tongue to keep from disrespecting him.

“Want to know why she did this?” Reaper asks, his tone darkening.

“Why?” I grit out, feeling my jaw tighten more and my gut twisting.

“Because one of the PPs was caught going in and out of your room,” he answers. “Now, we’re heading home. If you’re coming with, you best be ready to handle Bristol with care ‘cause it wasn’t just any PP that was on the footage I saw before coming in this room. It was Jezebel.”

Oh fucking kill me. I knew fucking the bitch that first time was a bad idea. Since then, she’s been trying to get my attention any chance she can. This is the last thing I need right now on topof everything else. “I’ll deal with that bitch later. Right now, I’m following you, getting my woman, and then going home.”

‘Cause without knowing what the hell happened between Bristol and Jezebel, I can’t bring her back to my room. Fuck I need to just send a prospect to get me a new bed along with sheets and a comforter. At least then, Bristol will know that she’s the only woman who’s been in my bed and on the new sheets.

CHAPTER 15

BRISTOL

I didn’t make it to my sister or Ivy as I intended to. I’d made the mistake of stopping at Beast’s room and finding a woman there naked. I recognized her immediately as one of the skanks who are known around here as the pocket pussies or whatever they’re called, and she informed me how much she enjoyed Beast after he dropped me off at work. She claimed he would never get his fill with just me and that I needed to get used to it. The way she said this, getting out of his bed, looking freshly fucked, I felt the betrayal slashing at my insides, destroying me.

I didn’t say anything, though I’m sure I should have. Instead, I slipped out the back, making sure no one saw me. Considering I didn’t have my car, I took one of the four-wheelers Ivy and the others have here at the clubhouse to ride around on. I’d been on them before and knew how to ride one and headed straight through the woods, not stopping until I made it to Reaper and Ivy’s house. I still have a key and let myself inside, where I went to my old room.

Now, lying here, I’ve done nothing but let the tears stream down my face. The pain of seeing that woman . . . of knowing she’s right . . . it all comes flooding through my system like a tidal wave.
