Page 30 of Fury
Blade’s face reddens as a voice booms, “What the fuck is going on?!”
I look at the door to see Fury glaring at Blade while, of course, Caitlyn eyes him.
Seriously?
Glaring her way, making her quickly rush towards her desk, I look at Fury, who hasn’t taken his eyes off Blade. “Oh, nothing, just your Pres here calling me selfish because I think he’s a prick for being inconsiderate towards his mother!” I snap, crossing my arms over my chest.
“Leo, leave!” Fury demands, and I look at him in shock while Blade growls, “I’m not fucking going anywhere!”
“And I said fucking leave now!”Fury shouts, shocking me and Blade, and I drop my arms, my mouth parting a little. “I’m not talking to you as my Pres. I’m talking to you as my best friend who has just upset my girl when I told you to back the fuck off until she’s ready to talk to you. Now leave,” he explains more calmly.
Blade sighs, “I just want to get to know my sister, Nyx.”
Fury nods and says, “I understand, but we had a conversation, brother. I told you shit isn’t what it seems and that you need to go at Skylar’s pace, not yours and certainly not your dad’s. Coming here calling her selfish when she doesn’t have a selfish bone in her fucking body makes you a prick,” tears brim my eyes that he's standing up for me against his President, his best friend. He demands, “Now I am telling you, as her man to fuck off and allow her the time she needs.”
Blade drops his chin to his chest, taking a deep breath, then looks at me, his eyes softening seeing my distress having him here, and he says, “At least don’t cut out Luna, please…”
He looks me over before giving Fury a nod and states, “I’ll see you in church, brother.”
Fury nods before Blade walks out, Caitlyn trailing behind him like a patch chaser that I’m beginning to see that she is, and my tears fall.
“Fuck…” Fury curses before he rushes over to me and takes me into his arms, and I melt.
“When are you going to give in and give the man a chance, sweet pea?”
Mama’s words from yesterday echo in my head, and I close my eyes, gripping Fury’s shirt, and I whisper, “Thank you.”
He tightens his arms around me, his lips going to the top of my head as he murmurs, “I will always be on your side, precious, even against my club, always, and I’ll never allow someone,even your blood brother, to call you selfish when you are most definitely not.”
My tears fall at his words, and I let go of his shirt, wrapping my arms around his waist. He holds me tighter, and for the first time in years, I feel at home again and that thought scares me the most because I can feel the trust building again.
Does that make me silly?
I guess only time will tell because after four years of holding a grudge, knocking him back day in and day out, I’m ready to give in again.
Chapter 11
Fury
“How is she?” Blade asks, and I sigh, leaning back from the break line on the Yamaha MT 52 bike, and look at him to see sorrow etching off him.
The fucker is on my shit list, and he knows it.
I told him to give her space, to allow me time to regain her trust, and he swore he would only go against me because Brick was pressuring him, and yet again, he blamed Anna, the wrong fucking person.
Idiot is lucky Skylar didn’t smack him.
We’ve been in the garage for about an hour, and he hasn’t said a word, even at church last night after I spent the evening calming Skylar down, her pain swallowing her whole. He’s kept quiet, knowing he was in the wrong in that whole situation.
Don’t get me wrong, holding her in my arms again felt amazing, but it was the reason why I wanted to hit my best friend.
“Finally calm,” I admit with tension, and he looks down, muttering, “I’m sorry, brother.”
I shake my head, dropping my tools on the floor with anger, and I snap, “Sorry, isn’t fucking good enough!” making him look at me. I growl, full of rage, “I told you she wasn’t ready, Leo, I told you to give her the space she fucking needs, especially now, and you went behind my fucking back and upset her!”
He swallows before he confirms, “You know the reason why she’s holding back, don’t you?”
I nod, not bothering to hide it, and state, “Yeah, I do, and no, I’m not telling you because I won’t break her trust, but what I will tell you, yesterday has set you back, and you’ve only got yourself to fucking blame.”
