“I’m club prez already. I took the seat. They have voted me in. Any way I run the club is fucking better than the way my father ran that shit. He was fucking up on all quarters. The club is maintaining. It’s why you haven’t seen me here so much. I’ve been over there back and forth. Sorting shit out. Mainly, I’m working on new members - prospects and patches seeing who to kick out and who to keep. It’s been a tough road, but I’m the one who everybody came to. I set the record straight over there. They know who the boss was.”

“Shit! I fucking didn’t know you did that! Lucky, I trust you. You could do all kinds of shit over there and be fucking us in the ass over here.”

“Nah, never. I know where my loyalties lie. You ain’t got no problems with me ever, Slash. The old ladies got your back.”

I wipe my brow. The sun’s coming out to play and the more Lara keeps talking, the more I can see the road out for the club. “I trust you. Don’t worry about it. Plus, Fi… she ain’t gonna let shit go if she finds out.” I send the silent warning to Lara, but she claps her hand on my shoulder.

“I hear ya. Your girl is pure fire. She’s perfect for you. Speak of the bombshell she’s coming this way. Take care of you, Slash.”

“I will.” Fi comes out, and my soul lights up. “Hey baby.”

Fi’s warm eyes meet mine and I turn, sinking my lips into hers. So soft and inviting. My cock rouses, but I wanna enjoy the sun a little more.

“Aye.” I hand the joint to her and she sucks in. “Whatcha doing out here?”

“Thinking… making club plans in my head. Lara was telling me about Savage Outlaws. Psych was telling me about Izzy. Catching me up. I’ve been focused-” she cuts me off, her eyes darkening.

“Don’t say the fucker’s name,” she growls.

“Got it.” We’re silent for a minute, watching the hogs cook in the Serenity sun.

“You wash your bike lately. Dust is all in the chrome.”

“Aye, lay off my bike bae, but yeah, I gotta clean it up.”

“Hmm. We could do a community car wash. Raise funds, shit like that.”

I grasp the ends of her fingers in mine. “Bae, you think Serenity gives a fuck about us? We’re the Dark Angels for a reason.”

“Hmm. We can change that. Besides, the business we do ain’t taking anything away from them.”

“Probably…”

“Not probably-” Getting into a bickering argument is our version of foreplay. Once we cool off, we wanna strip one another bare and make love. I sense this is where we’re headed. I know how to calm her down and she knows how to fan my fire, too.

Snatch comes out with his black beanie on. Immediately I seize up. Traitor.

“Hey Slash. Talk to you for a minute?” He grunts out.

“Aye Snatch. You can talk right here. I don’t need to hide anything from Fi. Go ahead.”

“I got off the phone with my bro.”

“Jansen?”

“Yeah.”

“And?”

“There’s hasn’t been a break in Axe’s case.”

“That would be right. What the fuck are you coming to tell me that shit for?”

“Listen…”

“Alright, get that shit out, Snatch.”

“There might not be a break in the case, but he found out the same gun that was used to take out Fi’s father is the same gun used in the fatality with Axe.”
