Page 105 of Hunter (Hell's Bastards MC)

“George hasn’t put me up to anything.”

“So, this has nothing to do with the Twisted Bastards MC?” sheasked.

“What do you know about the Twisted?” Hunterasked.

She rolled her eyes. “The same asyou. They’re yourenemies, and seeing as the new leader enjoyed some time choking me,that’s pretty much all I know.”

Hunter seemed to visibly relax.

“I think you need to be careful.”

“Of what?”

“Of your boss.”

“Hailey?” She burst out laughing and shook her head. “You’re wrongabout her. She is completely harmless.”

“What do you know about her?” Hunterasked.

“Enough.”

“Like what?”

“She is kind, sweet, and talkative. She isamazing at beauty, and she’s a dream. Clients love her, and she has a secret LoverBoy.” The last one wasn’t supposed to drop out, but she found themoment she started to speak, words just kept coming.

“A secret LoverBoy? She arrives just as the threat of the TwistedBastards MC start. You noticed how they kept her inside the barwhile the prez was choking you? She employs you, and according toBig Dick, other than Ava, you never had a steady job.”

“Stop!” Harlow put her hand up. “You knowwhat, forget it. Hailey was the one to ask me to come out and talkto you, and offer you a hot beverage. She is not the problem. She is not a spy or atraitor, or anything like that.”

She turned on her heel and made her way backinto the shop, even more angry than when she left it.

“That doesn’t look good,” Hailey said.

Harlow stared at her friend. She got whypeople were suspicious of her. At first, so was Harlow, as this jobwas a dream come true, but she had come to know Hailey. She hadeven seen pictures of Hailey growing up and had learnedstuffabout her lifewith her folks, and the fact she was sent to boardingschool.

Hailey was a good person, and she wasn’tgoing to allow Hunter’sbullshit to affect the way she felt about her.

“It’s fine. Hunter was being Hunter. It’snothing.” Harlow went back to thecounter and she checked to see if there were moreorders. “So, when are you seeing your man again?”

“Tomorrow night. He’s taking me to a hotel, and it’s going tobe so magical.” Hailey pressed her hands together.

“Magical?”

“Yeah. He makes my heart sing, Harlow. Ican’t even begin to describeit. When I am with him, he is … everything.”

There were literally stars in her eyes, andHarlow didn’t want to be the bearer of bad news.

“When do I get to meet him?” Harlowasked.

“I don’t know. He doesn’t want to go publicwith our relationship yet. He has said that he has to wait for theright time. Bad stuff is going to happen, or something. It madesense as he talked.”

Harlow didn’t like this.

What if Hailey didn’t know who Cadeonwas? With how her bosswas speaking, Harlow couldn’t help but feel like that’s who LoverBoy was. It couldn’t be. Harlow didn’t like this.

“What does he look like?”

Hailey smiled and her face went a brightred as she started to think about her man“He’s tall and he has large arms that when theyhold me, they … surround me.”
