LeiMae

The gunshots smattering the walls were high, so we all dropped. It took us a moment to realize some of them were coming from the inside. Tracker pushed me in the direction of Deakin and crawled over to the kitchen door. We saw a lone shooter just outside of the kitchen in the common area. Tracker reacted fast, ran at the shooter, and speared him, knocking him down. The rest of us got to our feet and went after the gunmen outside.

Unfortunately, they had already hightailed it back to their van and took off. We didn’t need to follow them. It was the Red Demons’ van. Going back inside, I pierced my palms with my nails. I want to know who was in that van.

It turned out to be Butch. He was a prospect. It was a shock to us all. He seemed to really want to patch in. Tracker had him tied to a chair, questioning him.

Butch looked petrified. I didn’t blame him. Tracker had a deadly blank look on his face.

“Who paid you?” Tracker asked him in an eerily calm voice.

“I didn't even know exactly wh-what I was doing. I sw-swear.” He stuttered his reply.

“Let me explain how this works. You fuck with my club and I annihilate you. Can you fuckin understand that?”

“They just want- they want LeiMae. I wasn’t fucking with the club.” Brick said miserably.

Tracker

What the fuck did he say? I was seeing red. All I could think wasshe’s mine.

Grabbing him by the throat and lifting him up, I got in his face.

“They paid you to take my girl?”

I could hear a sharp intake of breath from someone behind me, but I didn’t have time to look around.

He whimpered as I held him up. “They just want her back. They said all debts would be forgotten against our club if I brought her head back on a pike–”

I shook him hard so he would listen. “You thought as aprospectyou could make not only deals for our club but you could make them with my Old Lady?”

The next thing I knew, I was knocked over on the floor with LeiMae on top of me. “I’m your Old Lady?” she screamed in my ear.

I looked at her incredulously. “That’s what you took from this?” I could hear chuckles in the background. “They want your head chopped off.”

“Yeah, yeah. But my old man will protect me.”

That got full on raucous laughter from the group that filed in behind us.

Shaking my head but grinning, I pointed to Butch, “we still need to decide what to do with the traitor.”

LeiMae looked at me. “You’re a Dragon aren’t you? Light him up.”

I looked around at my brother’s, and they started to stomp and cheer. There was going to be a barbecue.

We took him out to the mighty oak in the back, chaining him up to it. Tired of hearing him beg, we slapped duct tape across his lips. I didn’t feel sorry for him. He attacked his own club. We protected what was ours. That included club members, Old Ladies, and crow eaters.

You attack one of us; you attack all of us.

LeiMae

Did he really call me his Old Lady? What the fuck was he playing at? I watched him string Butch up to the oak and eventually tape the sobbing traitor’s mouth closed. Butch was getting what he deserved, but I couldn’t focus on the ritual. My mind kept going back to that son of a bitch calling me his Old Lady. I wanted to walk up to him and kick him square in his balls. The worst part was that I didn’t know if it was because I was pissed or that I didn’t think I was pissed enough.
