Maybe I’d overreacted a bit. But, shit, I was basically the VP now. If anyone else saw my girl with another man’s hands wrapped around her, it would be all hell in the rumor mill in the MC. How was I supposed to be the right hand in the MC if I couldn’t control my girl?

“I promise, Kordell, I would never do that to you.”

I could see in her worried eyes she wasn’t lying. But still, she needed to learn that letting any other man touch her who wasn’t her blood family or me was strictly against the rules. MY rules.

I tucked my gun back in my holster, and the big country-sounding guy walked over to the one leaning against the car and handed him a handkerchief, which the one with the nosebleed promptly shoved up his nose with a wince.

“Think you fucking broke my damn nose, dick.” He groaned as he looked at his reflection in the car window.

Rosalie looked at him with concern. “We should get you to the hospital real quick, just in case!”

I quickly wrapped my arm around her waist and held her close against my body. No way was I going to let her go with any of these guys. This was where I drew the line.

“Don’t be a bitch. Go get it set if it is and you’ll be fine,” I snapped at him.

He glared back.

“I’m going to get out of here then,” he muttered through the stuffed nose.

The tall guy stopped him from opening his driver’s door.

“I’ll drive. Get in the passenger seat, Ty.” He stared him down before the one bleeding sighed and groaned and walked around the car and dropped into the passenger seat. They pulled out and drove off, and then it was my girl and me and the country boy.

“You sure yer good, Rosalie?” he asked.

He was still breathing quickly from our scuffle, and Rosalie looked from me to him. I saw her force a smile onto her face.

“Yeah, I’m totally good! You can go, Hank. Sorry about all the confusion! That was my bad,” she apologized.

He shook his head, but didn’t say anything else. Just flipped me off and kept walking to his car, and he drove off as well.

Finally, just me and my girl. Alone.

We stood there in silence for a minute, and then she looked up at me.

“I really am sorry, Kordell. I should have told you all of my friends were guys…” She sighed sadly.

I didn’t want her to be down all damn night. As long as she learned her lesson, then I could still do what I wanted to do with her tonight.

“Look, I can’t have you be my girl and let you have another man’s arms around you, outside of me and your actual family, lil’ mama. Otherwise, that could be really bad for me. I’ll explain it later, but right now, I need you to agree it won’t happen again, all right?” I looked down at her, and she nodded.

“O-okay… sorry again,” she said as I tipped her face up.

I leaned down and kissed her, wiping away some of the tear residue on her cheeks.

“It’s fine now, little mama. Here’s the thing. I wanted to take you somewhere special tonight, but it’s an overnight trip. So, why don’t you get home, get cleaned up, and pack a little backpack of some things, and then we can go?” I walked her over to her car and opened the driver’s door, giving her ass a squeeze as she started to climb in, her face full of wonder from what I’d said. “I’ll meet you there, okay?”

She nodded and smiled. There was her genuine smile.

“Okay. I’ll see you at home!” she said before I shut the door and walked over to my bike.

As we drove home, all I could think about was finally getting to really celebrate my promotion tonight with the club.

CHAPTER 11

KORDELL

A few hours later,I had Rosalie pressed against my back as we flew up the highway toward the clubhouse. This was the night my two separate worlds collided. And it was overdue. But I knew for a fact that a lot of the senior members liked it when a younger guy started to “settle down.” To stop fucking with the hang-abouts and actually pick an old lady to be with. If we could hold a relationship, we could hold a club together, right? What kind of fucking stupid logic was that? But, fuck it, I was down. At least this way, my fellow members would know to keep their hands off her.
