Clover smiles, but it doesn’t quite touch her eyes, and she nods. “Thanks, Ellie.”

Suddenly, Rhyan’s head snaps to the side, her mouth opening in awe, her eyes drooping with lust as I glance over my shoulder to see Noah, the prospect, lifting his shirt to wipe some sweat off his brow. I smirk, noticing the abs he’s sporting, and I turn back, side-eyeing Clover, and she giggles watching Rhyan clearly ogling Noah.

Ellie and the club girls haven’t noticed Rhyan’s lust-filled stare so that’s when I decide to play on this a little. “So, aah… the prospects. What’s the deal with them?” I ask.

Rhyan snaps her mouth shut, her eyes widening as she glances from Noah to me.

“The deal? What do you meanthe deal?” Rhyan asks defensively.

“I mean, does someone go searching for prospects to join, or do the prospects come to the club asking to join? How does it work?”

Ellie shrugs. “It’s a mixed bag. Some seek the club out. Some are lost souls that brothers find in their travels, and they tell them about the club and how they can help. Each prospect comes to us in a unique way. Some are born into the club. It just depends.”

“It’s so fascinating. I love getting to know how this all works.”

Clover inhales deeply, biting her bottom lip. “Haven?”

“Yeah?” I reply.

“Might be worth sticking around. Pres hasn’t stopped smiling since you showed up today. He’s been crazy moody lately. Plus, you seem super cool.”

Rhyan nods, but it’s Ellie who speaks, “Clover, honey, it’s not always that simple. Take it down a notch, okay?”

Clover sinks in on herself as I reach out, touching hershoulder supportively. “I don’t know what’s in the cards for me, Clo. But I like it here. Maybe I can come back and hang out with you guys. I’ll talk to Alpha to see if he is okay with me returning sometime.”

Clover lights up in excitement and rushes forward, embracing me. My eyes widen in shock, but something about the hug melts me inside. I wrap my arms around her and lean into the embrace. “Thank you, Haven. It would be cool to get to know you.”

I pull back and look into her eyes. “I’ll see what I can do.”

Glancing across to Ellie, she winks at me, letting me know she is on board with this plan. At least I know I have the women of the club on my side. But something about this feels too real. The whole interaction felt genuine. And I’m supposed to be playing a role, a part. So it makes this feel indecent, immoral, and unacceptable.

I should walk out now and not look back.

But if I do that, The Nest will terminate my contract.

And terminating a contract means terminatingme.

My heart hammers in my chest, making my breathing quicken. I don’t want them to see my rising panic, so I turn to walk off. “Thanks for the chat, ladies. It was lovely meeting you.”

“You too, Haven, talk soon?” Clover calls out, but I can’t answer her.

I spot Alpha watching me, and upon seeing his quizzical gaze, I instantly switch my instincts back on. A calm washes over my body, seeing his hard eyes, so I put on my confident strut, walking straight up to him with a purposeful stride.

He lifts his chin as I approach. “Looked like you were having a good time with the girls. You teach the young ones how to cheat at poker or something?”

I smirk, rolling my eyes at him. “Actually, I told them the quickest way to castrate a man without having him bleed out.Don’t want them killing a guy on their first try. I’m trying to save them serious jail time.”

Alpha narrows his eyes on me, a deep scowl crossing his features, and I can’t help but burst out laughing. I slap his chest, shaking my head. “Relax. You’re so damn tense. I merely introduced myself, and then we talked girl shit. Nothing you’d be interested in.”

He scrunches up his face. “I can talk girl shit.”

Widening my eyes, I chuckle, thrusting my fingers in his face. “Uh-huh, no, you can’t. What style is my nail polish?”

He looks at me like he is confused. “There are different styles?” he replies more like a question than an answer.

“It’s shellac, and if you were a girl, you would know that.”

He grumbles under his breath, “Fuck, fine! I don’t wanna talk girl shit.”
