Blushing, I nod. “Yeah, he asked me and I said yes. Then the guys voted and approved it as well. Reaper said he ordered me a property cut but it will take a while to get it.”
I bite back a scowl at that. While the bunnies haven’t done anything as severe as what Brandy pulled last week, they still like to try and get under my skin. Another reason I can’t wait is so that the freaking hang arounds will stop trying to hit on Reaper at parties.
She opens her mouth to say something, but the sound of boots coming up the steps has me shaking my head slightly. “I’ll fill you in more when we’re at Reaper’s house.”
Hesitantly, she nods and lifts the suitcase off the bed and sets it on the ground.
“We can get those, Lark,” Cannon tells me gruffly. He glances quickly over at Miracle who fidgets slightly under his gaze.
Once again, my worries about Miracle rise, but I push them back down for now. When we’re alone I’ll see if I can figure out what’s bothering her.
Heading downstairs, I tell Ma we’re heading out and then lock up behind me before heading into the garage. Besides my family, and now the club, Miracle and Khloe are the only ones that know the codes to get into our garage. Earlier tonight after we found out about Smoke, Cannon had stepped away and brought their bikes up to the house and put them in the garage. Whenever they visit, Miracle and Khloe always park in our garage, which is something I’m grateful for with this stalker business. I don’t want him or her possibly messing with Miracle’s car either. She saved up for a long time to get a manual gunmetal greyMustang GT.
The guys whistle when they see it and I chew the inside of my cheek to keep from smiling as she blushes. Miracle pops her trunk and the guys put my suitcases in before shutting it.
Cannon’s face hardens as he turns around. “Atlas will lead. Miracle, you follow behind Atlas and I’ll bring up the rear. Do not get separated at the lights. We don’t know what this fucker will do. Lark, do a three-way call with Atlas and me so that we’re linked. You remember our hand signals?”
I nod. All the guys have been quizzing me on them since everything with my stalker started heating up.
Cannon gives a chin lift. “Let’s head out. I’ll close up behind us.”
Getting into the passenger seat, I buckle up and exhale heavily as I pray nothing happens on the way home.
That pulls me up short.
Home.
I smile as I start the three-way call with the guys. I’m not sure when I started thinking of Anthony’s house as home, but it feels right. Shaking that off for now, I focus on my phone.
“Can you guys hear me okay?”
“Yes,”they both reply back in unison.
I bite my lip at that. Not too long after Anthony asked me to stay last weekend, I noticed that Cannon and Atlas did almost everything together. It could just be that they are good friends, but something tells me it’s more than that. Anthony had warned me that they don’t talk to many women because of something that happened in their past with an ex. While he didn’t tell me what all happened, I got the impression the guys were in a relationship with the same woman like how Levi is with both Thor and Dragon.
However, tonight, even though you could tell they were kind of uncomfortable, they both went out of their way to talk to Miracle, keep her company, and to keep her mind off whatever is bothering her.
Miracle pulls out of my garage and follows Atlas down the lane and towards town.
Chapter 38
Lark
NeitherMiraclenorItalk while she drives through town. Since it’s after three in the morning, there thankfully isn’t much traffic.
As we pull through the gate at the clubhouse, I exhale heavily.
Nothing happened.
Atlas leads the way down to Anthony’s house and I’m surprised that they both shut off their bikes when Miracle parks and shuts off her car. I get out and Miracle pops her trunk. Before I can do it myself, the guys grab my suitcases as well as Miracle’s bags. I roll my eyes behind their backs. We are perfectly capable of carrying our own suitcases. At the same time, though, a part of me warms that they do that.
Once inside, I crouch down and give Igor some love. Looking up, I frown when Cannon turns on the alarm after locking the door. “Are you guys staying tonight?”
They both nod. “Yeah. Reaper asked us to until they get the assholes.”
My chest tightens. “Did they find Mae yet?”
They both hesitantly glance at Miracle, but thankfully, they still answer me.
