Griffin is the first one to speak. “I think it’s a good idea. He’s done so much for Astera and Claire. He has had to miss some missions because he was with one of them or both.”
Lock takes a drink from his beer before speaking. “Griffin is right.”
Foster chimes in, “It’s the right thing to do. Just let the kid sweat it out a bit more.” We all chuckle.
“I know I have given him a rough time, but he deserves to be a full fledge member. He has paid his dues.”
We all clink our beers together.
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
CLAIRE
Talking to my brother and Cutter, I keep my eye on Lauren. And when she walks out of the club, I look to my brother and nod toward the door. “Hey, we should go follow her.”
He nods in response. We wait a few seconds before following her. I spot her step outside the gate so it is harder for me to see.
The gate doesn’t click all the way shut, so there is enough room for us to slide through, but before we do, we wait to see why she is out here.
A man steps up to her. They are talking like they know each other.
Rowan whispers, “I think that prick is a Dirt Machine Outlaw.”
“What?” My body freezes in place.
“Shhh.” Rowans tilts his head to them. And we listen, something about getting information on the MC. She can’t get close to the VP, and she’s been trying to work on Cutter, but he has been resistant as well. The guy tells her she needs to try harder.
Rowan bumps my arm and motions for us to sneak up on them. Approaching the gate, we carefully and quietly slide through the crack.
The man immediately looks shocked when he sees up and begins to take off running. Meanwhile, Lauren turns around, and I grab a hold of her hair to drag her back to the club.
“Now we know what you have been up to.”
She tries to pry my hand from her hair, but my grip is tight. Inside the club, I toss her, and she falls onto her knees. “I suggest you don’t fucking move.”
“What is going on?” Hayden turns to me while all eyes turn in my direction.
“I found this one talking to a Dirt Machine Outlaw member that must have gotten away when you came to rescue me. Heard her saying she is trying to get close to you, and then she started to work on Cutter. The guy told her she had to work a little harder.”
“What the fuck?” Cutter spews once he hears what I say.
“Get your ass in there,” Rowan tosses the guy inside, and he falls next to Lauren.
“What are we doing with these assholes?” Lock motions his hand to them.
“Get rid of them,” Foster offers.
“Whore,” Lauren spits at me.
Kicking my knee back, I swing it right into her face, causing her nose to bleed.
Griffin gets busy tying their hands behind their back.
“I know where to take them,” Hayden chimes in.
Astera stands back toward the eating area watching.
“I’m coming with you,” I declare, and by my tone, I know he won’t argue with me. “But first, I want to know, was it you?” I look at Lauren. “Did you write slut on my door?”
