“Vault, these three attacked me for no reason. I want them all arrested and that fucking brat put in foster care. They don’t deserve to have a baby when they have no impulse control,” Liz tries again as Vault stops at my side with Slim, Killer, Playboy, and my dads standing next to us.

“You realize we have cameras in almost every room in this clubhouse, yeah? That means every single word you fuckin’ spewed toward Genesis was caught on camera. Yeah, there’s audio attached to it too. We heard every fuckin’ word you just said. I’m glad Genesis beat the fuck out of you. Shows what a great ol’ lady she’ll make because she beat your ass with one hand and you couldn’t even get a single hit in on her. You’re the fuckin’ weak and pathetic person in this scenario. You won’t be pressin’ charges on anyone. What is gonna happen is you’ll be locked in one of the rooms here at the clubhouse since you have a tie to Ricky. We also know you’ve been meetin’ up with others in the city. I’m sure you’ve spilled all sorts of information you thought was important to everyone around this city. What you don’t know is that you’ll never know any club business oranything important because you’re a slut who spreads her legs for every male she comes in contact with. Devil and Ghost, take out the fuckin’ trash,” Vault says as Ghost steps around me, startling me because I didn’t even know he entered the kitchen.

“You’re taking her word over mine? What the fuck is wrong with you all? This fat bitch is nothing! She’s less than nothing! The second they fuck you, they’ll kick your ass to the curb. Bikers don’t end up with the fat bitch. You won’t even be able to ride on the back of their bike you’re so fucking fat!” Liz states as a blur moves past where I’m still holding her.

We all watch on as Morgan drags Liz off the floor and beats the shit out of her. She breaks her nose with one hit as blood starts spurting all over the two of them. Liz is crying out and screaming for help as we let Morgan do her thing.

“Genesis is the best person I’ve ever met in my life. She’s my best friend and you trying to humiliate her the way you are right now won’t ever fucking happen when I’m around. All you’re fucking doing is trying to get in her head so she won’t follow her heart and be with Raptor and Devil. I’m not gonna let it fucking happen because if there’s anyone here who deserves to be happy and in love, it’s Genesis. She’s more of a woman than you’ll ever be and I can’t believe you’re so fucked in the head that you believe you have any standing here in the clubhouse. You’re nothing, Liz. And you’ll never be anything more than a manipulative skank who spreads her legs in seconds for any guy in front of her. Get the fuck over yourself and leave Genesis alone,” Morgan growls out, tossing Liz to the floor at her feet once again before rushing to Genesis’ side and pulling her from my arms to hug.

“Get her the fuck outta our sight,” Vault orders Ghost and Devil as he pulls his phone out. “Genesis, you need to sit down. I’m callin’ Doc in to check your arm. You’ve been usin’ ittoday when you haven’t been cleared to do so. Beatin’ the skank probably didn’t do you any favors either. I’m glad you stood up for yourself and the club though. That’s the sign that you’ll make a good ol’ lady for Devil and Raptor.”

Wrapping my arm around Genesis’ shoulders, I lead her from the kitchen and back to the table where our moms are still sitting. Genesis’ body is trembling and I know it’s taking every ounce of control she possesses to hold herself together. Sitting in my chair again, I pull Genesis down onto my lap. She doesn’t flinch away or move to get up as I wrap my arms around her. Devil and Ghost drag Liz through the common room and take her to one of the rooms at the back of the clubhouse where she’ll be locked inside and no one will enter. One of the Prospects will stand guard twenty-four hours a day so nothing happens. The room doesn’t even have a window for her to try and escape through. It’s better than the cells and Liz should be thankful she’s getting locked in there instead of down in the basement.

“Are you okay, Angel?” I ask Genesis, burying my face in her neck as she leans deeper into my body and places her hands on my arm.

“I’m okay. I’m sorry I lost my cool in the kitchen,” she says as Slim walks up with Matie in his arms and Playboy pushing the stroller over to us. “I never meant to touch her, but hearing her talk about all of you like she was made me snap.”

“We’ve all been there, Sweetheart,” Shy says, making Genesis look at her. “You handled yourself the way any one of us would have. Not only were you sticking up for the club, but you were defending the club. I’m proud of you and know my grandson and Raptor couldn’t have chosen a better woman to be their ol’ lady. I hope you give them a chance.”

“I will. I’ve started to fall for them over the last few weeks and know what good guys they are,” she says, her neck and faceturning red at her admission as Devil joins us once again and sits right next to us before taking Matie from his grandpa’s arms and holding him close.

Doc shows up and examines Genesis. Thankfully she didn’t do any damage to her arm when she used it taking care of Matie at the house all alone or when she beat the hell out of Liz. If anything she’s healing better than Doc expected. Her ribs are still bothering her, but she says it’s really nothing at this point. Just a twinge here and there if she moves wrong. Doc allows her to remove the sling and let her arm relax without being held at the same angle and position all day long. She breathes a sigh of relief when she removes the sling and lets her arm drop.

Devil and I take Genesis home shortly after Doc leaves. It’s been a long as fuck day and I’m ready for bed. We promise to show back up to the clubhouse early the next day so the women in our lives can hang out with Genesis and get to know her. They really want to spend time with her and I’m gonna make sure it happens. She’s already been accepted by everyone here and tonight’s demonstration only added to their decision. Genesis has no clue but she claimed Devil and I in front of our entire family and both chapters of the club. She’ll realize it soon enough.

Chapter Eighteen

Devil

VAULT CALLED CHURCH for early this morning. I’m not sure what the fuck is going on, but something happened late last night and now it’s time to learn what the fuck happened so we can figure out how to move forward as a club. I’m sure our dads and my grandpa will be in church with us this morning. They usually sit in on our meetings when they’re here. After showering and getting ready for the day, I get Matie ready to go to the clubhouse while Raptor and Genesis take a shower. Yes, he convinced her to get in the shower with him and I’m jealous as fuck he gets to see her naked before I do. I’m happy as fuck though. Knowing that two of the most important people in my life are together in such an intimate way right now settles something deep inside me.

Last night, we didn’t get a chance to talk to Genesis about anything. Raptor got Matie around for bed after feeding him his dinner and giving him a bath. Genesis got changed into a pair of shorts and one of my tee-shirts before sliding into bed and pulling the covers up as high as she could get them. She was almost asleep when Raptor and I slid in bed on either side of her. Instead of putting up a fight like we were expecting from her, Genesis sank into us as we held her in our arms and let sleep claim us. It took seconds for her to be asleep with a small smileon her face. I held both her and Raptor as sleep quickly claimed me and I know Raptor didn’t take forever to fall asleep either. He was already halfway there when I closed my eyes.

I’ve got Matie fed, changed, and ready to head out by the time Genesis and Wade enter the living room where I’m waiting for them.

“So you guys will be in church?” Genesis asks Wade as I stand from the couch and grab the car seat and diaper bag for Matie.

“Yeah. It’s not the kind of church I’m sure you’re thinkin’ of. That’s what we call our meetin’. We all go in a room no one else is allowed in and discuss all club business and anythin’ else goin’ on with the club, any of our women, the city, and anythin’ else that needs to be talked about. We make every decision in that room by votin’ on things. While we’re in there, you’ll hang out with the ol’ ladies. If you have any questions about things, you can ask them and they’ll tell you what you need to know,” Wade answers her as she slides her flip flops on her feet on the way out the door of our house.

“Okay. Will you guys be long? I think we need to have our own talk about things after yesterday. I’m not sure what’s going to happen moving forward, but I know I’ve never felt the way I do about the two of you with anyone else. It scares the hell out of me if I’m being honest. So, I think we need to talk about things and get everything out in the open before there are any misunderstandings or anything else,” she says as we walk down the front steps and lead her to the SUV waiting for us.

“We’ll talk, Sweetness. We never know how long church will last. It can be a few minutes or several hours. I can’t even give you an idea of how long we’ll be because Vault called this meetin’ and we don’t know why. As soon as we’re done, we’llcome find you though,” I answer her as Raptor puts her in the front passenger seat and I climb in the back with Matie.

We make our way to the clubhouse and help get Matie and Genesis inside. Mom and Shy are waiting in the common room for us. My mom takes the car seat with Matie inside and holds it hostage as Genesis starts laughing.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve had a little one around. My grandson needs some lovin’ from his grandma and I’m gonna give it to him. You two get out of here and go do man things. We’ve got Genesis and Matie,” Mom says, a large smile on her face as Genesis instantly sobers with her words.

“Yeah, Angel. We’re all fuckin’ in and everyone here knows it. This is happenin’ so you’ve got a little time to wrap your head around things. We’ll see you in a little while,” Raptor tells her, leaning down and pressing his lips against her soft, full mouth as she wraps her arms around his shoulders and molds her body to his.

When Raptor pulls back, they’re both breathless. I swoop in to stand in front of Genesis, placing a hand on each side of her face while staring into her eyes.

“We’re definitely all in, Sweetness. You’re our woman and we’ll make sure you realize that as soon as we’re done with church. We both see Matie as our son and that means our family sees both of you as their family. This isn’t gonna fade or leave either one of us. I knew from the second you walked into Enchantment that I wanted you. Yeah, I was a fuckin’ idiot and said shit I never should have. It’s because I knew there was no fuckin’ way I’d let you get on that stage and take your clothes off to show every man in the audience what belongs to me. I hated even lettin’ you be a waitress because it shows off too much of your body,” I tell her, kissing her with everything I feel.

I slide my tongue along the seam of her lips and Genesis opens her mouth for me. Sliding my tongue inside, I tangle it with hers and continue to pour every ounce of love I feel for her into the kiss. Genesis moans as I lower my hands and place them on her hips, pulling her body into mine so she can feel exactly what she does to me every fucking day.

Pulling away from her, I break the kiss but don’t let her body move from where she’s pressed against me. She feels like fucking heaven in my arms and I’m not about to wait a second longer to have her in our bed as we show her every ounce of pleasure we can. Raptor pulls me away from Genesis and leads me down the hallway to where Deegan is waiting to take our weapons and cell phones before we enter church. I hand mine over and make my way in to sit next to Vault.

Vault’s pissed the fuck off. His entire face shows how angry he is and I don’t know what’s going on to make him look like that. Hopefully we find out quickly as everyone takes their seats so we can begin.
