“Pepper’s under control for now,” Eda says, her voice filled with venom.
“Oh, what’s this?” Tavia questions as she walks over to us.
“Pepper,” Eda spits, and I watch as Tavia’s lips curl in disgust. “She’s behaving for now.”
“That’s because you, Effie, and Kinsley are on her case every day.” She shakes her head. “I don’t know, something about the entire pregnancy doesn’t sit right with me,” Tavia says.
“What do you mean?” Chloe asks as she rests her head against my shoulder.
“She’s been a part of this club longer than I have, and she’s acting crazy. We all know what happens when you mess with the Vipers, and she’s messing with Preacher big time. There’s no way she can’t know what her fate holds, so the question remains, why is she doing it? What does she gain from it all?”
“Other than a painful death?” Shadow grunts.
Everyone’s pissed. You don’t treat a brother the way this bitch is. The only reason she’s alive is due to the unborn child she’s carrying. Less than three months and we’ll know.
“It just doesn’t make sense,” Octavia repeats, and I have to agree with her. Everything about it is weird, but I guess we’ll find out the truth once she gives birth. She’s going to tell us what the fuck’s up one way or another. Mayhem can get real creative in getting people to talk.
“I’m so happy for you,” Chloe whispers as she rests against me, pulling me from my thoughts about the whore. “I know how close you and Raptor are. Having him be your vice president is going to be amazing.”
Christ, this woman never ceases to amaze me.
“Love you, baby,” I say so that only she can hear me.
Her eyes soften and her gaze drops to my lips. Before I can kiss them and drag her to bed, a cell rings.
“Hey Seri,” Octavia answers cheerfully. “What?” she hisses, and I turn to face her, Chloe doing the same as we hear the horror and worry in her voice. “Oh my God, are you okay? Where are you?” She’s shaking, her entire body trembling as she brushes her hand through her hair. “I’m on my way. Stay where you are. God, Seri, are you sure you’re okay? Should I take you to the hospital?”
Shadow’s instantly at Tavia’s side, his eyes dark and his jaw clenched.
“I’m drivin’,” he grunts. “Where we goin’?”
Tavia blinks, her eyes filled with tears. “Oh, um, what about the kids?”
“Go,” Eda says. “We’ve got them. They’re safe. Go. Tobias is calling Digger. Go to Serenity, Tavia. We’ve got your babies.”
Eda’s words seem to spur her into action. She takes off at a sprint toward her car, Shadow hot on her heels.
“I hope her sister’s okay,” Chloe whispers.
“She’ll be fine, baby. She’s got Tavia and Shadow lookin’ out for her. You see my brother’s face? No one is gonna touch her.”
She nods. “Okay.”
I hate that sad as fuck look on her face.
“Come,” I say as I lift her off my lap.
“Where are we going?” she asks with a raised brow.
“To our room. We’re goin’ to make some lasting memories.” I lift her into my arms and listen to her squeal in delight. “I’m goin’ to fuck you hard, baby. I’m goin’ to have you scream until you’re hoarse.”
I hear her pull in a ragged breath. “I can’t wait.”
“Fuckin’ made for me.”
She nods. “All yours.”
Too fucking right she is.
She’s my everything.
