The next day, the club is partying for my wedding day tomorrow. I figure it’s a perfect time to tell Killer the news. “Hey, Killer,” I call over after everyone is done with dinner.

“Yeah?”

With all the guys around, I pull a patch out and hand it to Killer. “You are no longer a prospect.”

“Are you serious?” he grins wide.

“Serious.”

“Oh wow. Thank you, guys.”

“You earned that,” Cutter adds. “You are a full-fledged member now, and you can sit in on the meetings.” Cutter pats Killer’s back.

The kid cannot stop smiling.

“Now we gotta get someone else to clean our bikes and do the dirty work,” Griffin adds jokingly.

We all take a drink from our beers and toast to his promotion. I’m standing next to Rowan when Astera comes over to us.

“I notice you aren’t drinking,” Rowan mentions to her.

A wide grin spreads across her face, and she reaches for Griffin’s hand, pulling him over to us. “We are pregnant.”

“No fucking way. Congrats!” I give Astera a big hug and shake Griffin’s hand.

“That is so exciting,” Rowan says.

Then Griffin and Astera announce it to the whole group. “I don’t want to take away from Killer getting patched in, or the party before Hayden and Claire’s wedding. But Griffin and I would like to announce that I am pregnant.”

Everyone cheers. I feel arms circle around my waist from behind, and I know it’s Claire. Spinning around, I bend down to kiss her lips. “You knew, didn’t you.”

She chuckles. “Of course. I am the first one to know.”

Swinging my hip, I bump hers. “You didn’t even tell me. I would have kept it a secret.”

“I know.” She laughs. “Isn’t it better this way, though?”

I sigh. “You’re right.”

“Get used to that,” she laughs.

“Man, you are a feisty one today. I might have to put you over my knee and spank you.”

I watch her shift her position as if to pull her thighs tighter together.

“Don’t threaten me with a good time.”

Grinning, I take a sip of my beer and make a note of this for later. Right now, we need to enjoy the party since it’s just getting started.

Claire wanders off with Astera, and they are most likely about weddings and babies. The thought that I will be a married man tomorrow, makes me smile.

“Yoo hoo, earth to Hayden,” I hear Lock call my attention.

“What?”

“Did you get Claire a wedding gift?”

“Yeah. And I had my ring sized when I got hers, so I was able to pick that up.”
