“No, the other club.The one thatyou took out.”She bit down on her full, dark lip.He wanted to dounspeakable things to this woman.The more she stood there, lookingtempting as hell, the harder it was for him to resist.
“Don’t listen to gossip.”He lefther standing behind the front door as he made his way up thestairs, which had a single long piece of carpet down the center.The house was pristine clean.The mere sight of the inside let himknow Sunshine didn’t fuck about on his time.He wondered where sheslept.
Alex closedoff immediately the thought ofher sleeping.It was easier for both of them if he stopped thinkingabout where she slept at night.The last thing he needed was forthe temptation to get so strong he couldn’t back down.

Whizz waited in his room while Laceygot dressed.Lash appeared in the doorway looking bored.
“Is she coming ornot?”
“I thought you’d be sayinggoodbye to your woman.”Whizz smirked thinking about Angel’s abruptexit in the kitchen hours before.
“She’s mad at me.I’ve neverspoken to another woman like that in front of her.Well, I can’texactly call Raven a woman.She’s a whore through and through.”Lash leaned against the wall looking mightily pissed.“Angel willforgive me, but she’s gone to the spa.I hate hearing bitches likeRaven talk shit to her.She doesn’t deserve it.”
“Your woman’ssweet, Lash.She’s never goingto change, and you’re going to have to realize it.I doubt I’llever see her kicking your ass, but one could hope for it.”No manin the club would ever think to take Lash on.He was too scary, toodangerous, and too willing to hurt anyone who stepped in his way.It would be fun to see Angel kicking his ass though.The verythought made Whizz smile.
“Angel knows I’ll neverhurt her.I’d rather die than hurt her.”Lash pulled out his cellphone.“Is this bitch coming?”
“Don’t,” Whizz said,warning him.
“You layingclaim?”
“No.”
“You should.Boys areseriously pissed off that she’s still alive.”
The whole of the clubhouse was hurtingbecause of the Savage Brothers.
“This wasn’t her fault.Shecame to help Butch.”
Lash shrugged.“Look, we’re all hurtingfrom the shit that went down.I know I’m not in the mood to dealwith her, but I promised Tiny I’d help.”
“She’s not going to killme.”
“We’re not going to takethat chance because you don’t think it.”Lash pocketed his cellphone as Lacey walked out of the room.
“Hey,” she said.Her gazemoved from him to Lash.
“Let’s get this show on theroad.”Lash left the room.
Offering his hand, Whizz was surprisedwhen she took it.
“Are you going to kill me?”she asked.
“Do you really think Isaved you just to kill you now?”
She shrugged.“I don’tknow.”
Tilting her head back with a fingerunderneath her chin, Whizz shook his head.
“I’m not going to kill you, andneither is Lash.He’s there because the club doesn’t trust you.”Hekept back the part about most of the men wanting her dead.Shedidn’t need to know how hurt the club was, at least notyet.
Whizz understood why she was hurting.TheSavage Brothers may have fucked them up, but they’d been her familyfor the longest time.Lacey wouldn’t forgive him easily.
Closing his bedroom door, he ledher down toward the main part of the clubhouse.Lash was alreadyexitingthebuilding as they rounded the corner where most of the men and womenwere standing.
The entire room went silent.Thesweet-butts,sensing the tension, stayed silent.Whizz held her hand a littletighter.He’d kill anyone who tried to hurt her.Murphy and Tatewere standing together, smiling.When they turned to look at Lacey,their smiles became frowns.Tiny was crowding Eva where she leanedagainst the doorframe.
