“So that was a waste going after them,” Reese said.

“I’m not going to say you’re right,” Levi said with a grin. “FuckDRM. We need to keep our power over them anyway.”

“Killing one of them?” Reese asked.

“No offense, VP, but I had nothing to do with that. You did. Hawk was doing his job. He’s a prick. He’s an asshole. We all hate him. But he’s the most loyal to the patch and cut out of all of us. Especially when it comes to protecting me and you.”

“True,” Reese said.

“What are you doing out here?” Ellis suddenly cut in, slurring worse. “You should be in the room with your girl, man. You love Josie. You’ve always loved Josie. What the fuck… you…”

Ellis shook his head.

Levi slapped his back. “I’d better go and find him a corner to pass out in. He was slamming drinks back pretty hard.”

“Hey, Prez,” Reese said.

“Yeah?”

“Josie brought Steph here for a reason.”

“I figured.”

“I don’t know what or why though. When I do, I’m bringing it to the club. I’m not hiding anything. I’m focused.”

“I know you are,” Levi said. “Just stay focused. It’s easy to lose sight of things when love starts fucking with your heart. I know how things went last time.”

“Don’t talk about the past, Prez.”

“Don’t get caught up in it and I won’t.”

“Deal.”

Levi gave a nod and grabbed Ellis by his leather cut and started to drag him away.

Reese finished his drink and his smoke. He then took two beers and went back to his room.

There he found Steph basically curled up in Josie’s arms on the bed. She was passed out again, Josie playing with her hair, holding her as though she were the mother and Steph was her kid. It sent a surge of pain through Reese’s heart to see that. Because in some ways, Steph was still a baby to him. He saw her as the annoying little girl in a dress that was destined to get dirty because she was a tomboy, but was always dressed too much like a girl. She would follow Reese and Lasz everywhere and get into trouble with them all the time.

Reese showed Josie one of the bottles of beer and raised an eyebrow.

Josie nodded.

She slowly worked herself away from Steph, leaving her to sleep on her side.

Reese pulled the sleeping bags all the way across the room to the closet door. He stacked some pillows and took off his leather cut. He placed it on the floor next to the sleeping bags and sat down. He kicked off his black boots and let out a breath as it felt good to sit.

The best sight of the night was watching the way Josie fell to her knees at the edge of the sleeping bag and moved toward him with seductive eyes. She crawled toward him and quickly straddled him, stealing a few kisses.

Those few kisses turned into something much hotter, leaving Reese pulling at the belt loops of Josie’s jeans, making damn sure she was tight against his body so she could feel what she did to him.

Josie finally broke the kiss and touched his face. “Hey.”

“Sweetheart,” Reese whispered.

Josie moved away from him and reached for one of the beer bottles.

Everything about her was sexy. Too sexy for Reese’s own good.
