“Relax, Leo. She’s not going anywhere. Honestly, I don’t think she has anywhere to go.”
“Take me to her.”
Eva walks around the counter and comes to stand right in front of me. She’s dressed in a tight silver dress and her hair is pulled back in a high pony tail. Any other day I’d be more receptive to the vibes she’s giving off but today, after I’ve been with Nisa, I wouldn’t care if Eva were doing cartwheels butt naked.
“Don’t you want to...”
“No, I don’t want to do shit but figure out what Jayne is doing here. Then I want to get back home.” My words are harder than they need to be but people like Eva need to know exactly what’s what.
“Fine shit. I swear this is the last time I’m going to call and help you out.” She rolls her eyes and turns on her heels walking in the opposite direction.
I follow behind her making sure to check over my shoulder in case someone followed me here.
I told the guys that I was going to take care of something on my own but that didn’t mean that Marc didn’t still have people watching us.
Right now he’s the only problem I should be focused on. Not whatever the hell was going on with Jayne.
Eva takes me to one of the smaller rooms, opens the door and gestures for me to come in.
I don’t hear the shower going but the steam is still billowing out of the open door of the bathroom.
“Eva?” A woman’s voice calls out and I groan at the sound. I know that voice. I’ve heard it many times before. Usually screaming through my clubhouse.
“Yeah, It’s me. I’ve got company.”
“Who is it?” Jayne asks as she walks out of the bathroom.
She’s skinnier than I remember. Her blonde hair not as shiny, even her eyes are a little bigger in her face than I remembered.
What I do remember is the flaming fury in her gaze. The last time I saw it was when I demanded she leave Spike alone and never talk to him again.
As far as I knew she did exactly what I asked. That doesn’t mean she liked it.
“You...” She snarles at me and takes a menacing step in my direction.
“Stop the shit. You know you’re not going to do anything to me. You know you’re not supposed to be here, Jayne. I thought I made myself clear.”
“When the fuck did you become president of the whole world. I’m not at the clubhouse.”
“No, but you’re close enough that Spike would be able to find you. What’s the point of ghosting him and then coming back around.”
She rolls her eyes and turns her body so she doesn’t have to look at me anymore. “I don’t have to get your permission.”
“You better fucking believe you do. If it has something to do with my club or my men, my permission is the first and most important thing you need. Now answer my fucking questions before I throw your ass on the next train out of town.”
“I can’t...”
“Bullshit! You can fucking answer me!” I grit through clenched teeth.
“No! I can’t. I need Spike. I need you guys. They’re going to kill me. I need help. I’ve got nowhere else to go.”
Her face is still positioned away from me but I can see the solo tear streaming down her face.
I don’t know what kind of shit she’s gotten herself into but I can’t send her to fight it on her own. I can only hope that I can keep her hidden enough that Spike won’t find her.
