"I'm the VP."

He nods while Flame looks at me again.

"I'm here because your son wanted me here; he wanted me as his VP, my best friend. I left my squadron—men who risked their lives for me, men who I risked my life for. Who were with me day in and day out for 8 years to be here for Axel. Your wife overstepped big time. She is only an old lady. She stopped being the first lady when Axel took over as president. Annalise is now the first lady, and Cammy overstepped. She did it in front of the brothers, disrespecting me, the VP, and you know as well as I; if it were anyone else, she would have been banned from the clubhouse and club activities for a month as punishment."

He nods again as understanding flashes in his eyes. I didn't punish her; I didn't raise the alarm with the council. I walked away.

"It won't happen again."

I nod back before looking down, squeezing my eyes tight, hating having to do this before I look at him again.

I clear my throat. "It would be best if she stayed away from me for a while." Flame's eyes widen while Dead Shot's mouth hangs open. He goes to say something to me, but I put my hand up. "She said something about my momma; she had no right to Bruce. My momma doesn't deserve crap being said about her when she can't defend herself. I've always looked up to her despite her trying to minimize the time I spent with her son. I always saw her as a mother figure, but she overstepped, and I needed space even if she were family to me.

He sighs and nods his head in understanding, knowing I could enforce a club vote to have her banned for the month, and I'm trying to do the right thing for everyone around. Flame goes to say something when we hear Axel's office door open and his growl. I grin while Flame and Dead Shot look at me in confusion.

I get up and nod my head for them to follow, heading into his office.

When we get in there, we see Axel sitting behind his desk, and he growls, pointing his finger at me.

"You."

I smirk at him while Dead Shot and Flame look between us, then to the pile on his desk, making them both try to hold their laughter in.

"It's not fucking funny; I have plans tonight, and they don't fucking include the extra paperwork on my desk."

I just shrugged. "I'm sure your old lady would wait until tonight for you to fuck her."

He narrows his eyes at me while Dead Shot smacks me on the back of my head.

Fuck that hurt,

"Shut up, that's my fucking daughter."

I bite my lip to stop the laughter that's bubbling up in my throat from coming out. Yeah, I can understand him not wanting to know about his blood son fucking the woman he brought up from 3 years old after her biological father beat her mama to death right before he tried to kill her. He's currently out of prison and threatened her about a month ago, wanting her mama'sinheritance, which she no longer has. She donated most of it to charity after buying her bakery and giving some to family, and much to her disagreement that we saw this morning in the common room, she's being guarded by two brothers, especially since she's currently pregnant, a conception that never should have happened. Fucking Bubbles had poked holes in Axel's condoms, hoping to try and seduce him.

Fucking sweet butts are more hassle than they're worth, but the brothers voted against them leaving last week. I shake my head at their idiocy. Don't get me wrong, I love the pussy, but they're getting out of control and want a brother's patch.

Once we find Annie's father and put him out of his misery, life will be back to normal for Annie. Well, except for the surprise pregnancy, anyway.

Flame tilts his head and asks, "Is it incest if technically you had legal rights over her growing up?"

My eyes widen. What the fuck? That's not true, right?

Dead Shot sighs and shakes his head before hitting all three of us on the back of our heads, making us all grunt, "No, you dipshit. She's not blood-related, and they didn't grow up together; it's all fucking normal, but she is still my daughter, not because I technically brought her up but because she's now Axel's old lady." Then he looks at Axel and says, "If you're about to tell me Dagger's insinuation is correct, then I'm going to beat your ass."

Flame and I laugh while Axel smirks before getting a small box out of the drawer and opening it. My mouth drops open as he states, "Actually, I was planning on taking her and Diamond to the lookout point near Hudson Lake, where I first took her, to convince her to give me another chance after I fucked up with Sugar. I was thinking about putting it in Diamonds collar."

I grin fucking wide, happy for my brother. He had no idea Annie even existed until Cammy and Rosie, Annie's Grams, decided to set them up a few months ago. The parents and her Grams were worried about her safety and Axels because of Grant, Annie's father, who was trying to find her, which is why no one knew who she was.

I look at Flame, and I sigh. He has confusion and heartbreak shining through his eyes, and I shake my head. The fucker needs to catch Star, our club princess, who also happens to be the love of his life before she finds someone who will catch her. This whole she's too good for him crap needs to stop before he loses her for good. There's only so much a woman can take watching the man she loves fuck around before she walks away. Axel tilts his head and says,

"Star helped me pick it out."

He looks up at Axel and nods his head while I look at the paperwork.

Fuck, I'm going to have to do it.

I sigh and stand up from where I've taken a seat, pick up the paperwork that I placed on his desk, back up, and snap Flame out of his head. They all look at me with raised brows, and I shrug. "What? He's going to fucking propose; I'm not stupid enough to get in the way of that. Bulldog is getting everything she ever wanted. A daughter-in-law who happens to be her daughter in every way except blood, a grandbaby, and now a wedding; I value my balls thank you very fucking much."
