The Royal Bastards fucking own St Ives.

“Baby, you did right coming here. I will protect you. The kids as well. So will the club. I know it’s easy as fuck for me to say, but you don’t need to be sorry about this cunt. We will fix this shit. The kids are going nowhere.” I shrug.

She stares at me, fresh tears filling her eyes, and it guts me. Cupping her face, I gently run my thumb over the cut on her lip.

“He did this to you?” I ask, not taking my eyes off the little cut.

“Yeah. He backhanded me. I knew then that I had to get Ricky and Ruthie out of the house. I got them in the car after I hit him over the head with a vase. We ran here.” Her lip trembles against my digit.

Hearing her say that it was me she ran to makes my ego enlarge, as well as my cock. For months I have wanted the woman, but what woman wants to be with the man who killed her husband, the father of her kids?

“I am fucking glad you did, babe.” I rest my forehead against hers and breathe her in.

Her body sags a little, like some of the worry is easing from her body.

We stay like this for seconds, minutes... I don’t count because I don’t give a fuck. I am happy to have her with me, even if it was fear that drew her and the kids here. I will take what I can get.

“You will stay here at the club, here in my room with me. The kids can have the spare room. It’s across the hall so they’ll be close if they need you. You will be covered. No one will get to you here.”

Pulling back, she looks me in the eyes. I see some of her fight flash in her eyes, making me smirk at her. Elsie was a shell when we first stepped into her life, but seeing this new side to her is making my dick hard.

I cock a brow at her and she huffs, standing up, ready to challenge me.

Bring it on, baby.

CHAPTER FOUR

ELSIE

When I made the decision to come to the club, I wasn’t sure what would happen. Months ago, they helped me out so much. Would they turn me away now? Even with speaking to Adele and Una from time to time, that didn’t mean the club would help us now.

Seeing Solo for the first time in months made my heart race faster.

Seeing his worry and anger as he strode towards me made most of my worry fade away.

My heart skipped a beat when I heard the words leave Tag’s mouth, telling me I did good coming to the club. It was the proof I needed that they would help me.

Then Solo stepped up and my body sagged against him in relief that he was there.

Now we are in his room, and he is telling me that he will sort my problem out for me again, but me and the kids have to moveinto the clubhouse to be safe. My heart is beating faster but for a different reason.

I have spent the last few months building myself up again, learning not to let people walk all over me, and here is the man who saved me telling me what to do.

“You will stay here at the club, here in my room with me. The kids can have the spare room. It’s across the hall so they’ll be close if they need you. You will be covered. No one will get to you here.” A smirk slips across his face when I glower at him.

Jumping to my feet, I fold my arms across my body, pushing my breasts up, which draws his attention to my chest. Such a man.

“I can’t just stop working, Kane. I will lose my job. And the kids have school. It’s easy for a man with no kids to think that it’s easy for them to miss school,” I huff.

He just looks at me, a grin in place on his stupid, handsome face. Ugh, why does he have to be so damned good looking? When I look at Kane Huskins, I get why people give him a wide berth with his size and stature, but if they got to know him, they would see that he has a heart of gold beneath that hard biker mask he wears.

His life may have violence in it, and tons of illegal stuff. Hell, the club are called the Royal Bastards, for crying out loud. I have heard about other clubs in the UK from stuff on the news, but these guys here tend to stay under the radar.

I feel his eyes on me, and my skin heats up from the attention. It has been so long since a man has looked at me the way Kane does. Nigel only wanted a body to use to get off, but Kane looks at me like he wants me to be his one and only meal.

Like he will starve if he doesn’t have me.

“They can be homeschooled for now. I know a kid who got his work sent home with him. The kids can do that. Explain to the school that you have to stay in St Ives for a family emergency.” He shrugs like it’s nothing.
