With the men relocated to the den the rest of us sat back talking through plans of building our empire.
Tank
I left Bree in the kitchen with the rest of the females with Happy following behind me. When we entered the den Axle, Blaze and Wall were already in deep discussion with Tony. I took a seat at the end of the couch and listen to Blaze explain what the fire inspector told him the night before.
“It was definitely arson, man. The dumb fucks left a trail of accelerant a mile long. Looks like the pussy mother fuckers started it in the hallway between my sister’s bedrooms. If the girls were home it would have left them fucking trapped in the bedrooms to burn the fuck to death or trying to jump from their windows to the street. The fucking building is a total lose. The building was old to start with and the fire did a beating on the structure. It would cost too much to event try to salvage it. The only course of action would be to tear it down and start over. Tank, your girl’s idea couldn’t have come at a better fucking time man.”
“I’d have to agree. Mainly for the fact that I won’t have to worry about my woman trying to fly across the goddamn country every few weeks to work. I’ll never fuck up and try to keep her away from music gain but damn if I want her stressing over shit with three fucking kids. I want my family where I can keep eyes on them at all times. Even when this shit gets put to bed we all know there’s always someone wanting to take what we’ve got. I for one will whatever the fuck it takes to get this shit done. It benefits everyone and the best part of it is it was their idea. At least we won’t have to worry bout them with holding pussy or getting pissed off pulling disappearing acts anymore. We get this done it’ll tie their asses her for good. Your woman will forever be in my debt, brother.” I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t happy with Bree’s decision to set up shop locally. That and it would help with the man power if all the women were venturing off to work at the same place. Blaze and Ghost still worked at the bike shop making at least one full patched member close by.
Tony was only half paying attention to the conversation going on around him while he was flipping through emails on his lap top. Wall is the one who changed the subject and pulled him away from the screen. “Now that it’s just us I need to know what you’re planning with the legal way of things. Me personally I’m not going to be happy unless everyone of the fuckers involved aren’t six foot under when we’re done. If your plan doesn’t involve a little blood shed then I say it’s time to come up with another fucking plan, dickhead!”
I watched the exchanged with Wall and Tony choosing to keep my opinions to myself. I’m sure everyone in this room was thinking the same way Wall was however we choose not to discuss with the club’s attorney, even if he was family. Tony broke eye contact with Wall to look over at Happy before plucking a few key strokes on his laptop pulling something up he wanted to show everyone. When the file was loaded he spun the laptop around causing us all to stand still.
“This is what I’m working on. Happy brought this to me last light. This is what he’s been working on with the help of his buddy. Call it blackmail if you want, I really don’ give a fuck. This right here is enough to put Derek’s ass away for at least twenty-five to life. That fucker not only using the family business to fatten his own pockets, but he also seems to be using it to launder money for a few individuals that are even higher than the likes of you on the criminal food chain. You know for a fact whether its bullshit or not when word gets out that the feds will be looking into Derek’s ass for his own shady dealings he won’t be around long enough to prove otherwise. The Kovalevski’s will make him disappear before the feds can even dig into shit. The Russian mob isn’t going to wait to find out if they’ll be pulled in his mess. If these pictures are correct they might already be on to them.” Tony pulls up a picture showing a man I’d never seen before but he knew exactly who he was. “This my friends is Valdimir Kovalevski, son to Boris Kovalevski. Boris is the Boss where Valdimir is the under boss. I’m sure if you look a little closer to who Derek is coming in contact with regularly you’ll find several of the Kovalevski soldiers watching his every move.”
“So Carmen is part of the Russian mob? There’s no fucking way. We wouldn’t be dealing with an arson or attempted rape. We’d be dealing with bomb and ak’s. None of this shit is making sense,” I said staring at the face on the screen.
“That’s why I told you I didn’t think Derek was in on the plans Charlie and Carmen were working on. I’m still putting shit together, but I still think that Derek doesn’t have a clue about Carmen’s involvement. If he does, then he’s walking a fine line. A line that if he crosses will end up with not only a bullet in his head but in Charlie’s head as well. From what I’ve manage to dig up Valdimir is a ruthless son of a bitch. He’s got ties all up and down the east coast man. They’re big in the sex trafficking ring. This shit could get ugly and land the club in a pile of shit for everyone involved if it’s not handled correctly. You all are gonna have to trust me on this shit. As for Charlie we’ve got enough shit on her to send her up the road for nice little stint in the women’s facility if it gets that far. That bitch has been taking Bree’s money long before she left. I’m sure isn’t aware that she was getting an allowance her whole damn life. Just like the deal mommy dearest had with old man Loftland, Bree was also allotted a couple grand a month. Charlotte has been living off of that Bree’s entire life. If I had to guess I would say Charlie is fucking Carmen and together they’re using each other to get what they want. Carmen is looking for revenge on the club for one reason or another and Charlotte is after fucking money.”
“Well then, anything else you care to enlighten us with? Or are you done dropping bombs for one day?” I wanted to tear him a new ass but wasn’t given the chance. Wall stood from his spot punching a hole in the drywall causing us all to shake our head. He handled the news better than expected but it wasn’t going to save him from Carrin when she sees what he just did. His sister was going to go ape shit.
Everyone in the room stayed quiet waiting for Wall’s next outburst. Surprisingly it was only with words and not fist. “You mean to tell me that we’re gonna have to look over our shoulders waiting for the fucking Russian mob to come knocking. How the fuck to you get the feds looking into Derek without leaving a trail leading back to us? You know Derek might not know that bitch’s dealings with Carmen, but I’d bet my left nut that she knows how his with the fucking mob. We’re gonna have to get rid of that bitch before you leak a fucking thing about Derek. I will not have this shit on our door step. There’s too many fucking women and kids around this place to be worry about fucking bombs going off. You better have a good fucking plan Anthony or I’m gonna be grabbing my sisters and hauling ass to fucking China!”
With Wall as calm as he was going to get Tony took charge explaining how to get things done without drawing attention of the feds or the mob. First, he would set up the shit with the lawyer. He’d get Bree inheritance locked down and her part in Seacrest Enterprises sold off. With having a face to face he was sure Charlie and Carmen would be planning on making there move close to the meeting date or shortly after. Not only would my girl be shadowed by the club but also his contacts at the state police department. It might eventually turn into using Bree as bait to force them into action, but we would be ready for them. This is why he wanted to let Yasmin go with a promise of money for information. If we couldn’t catch them in the act we would then just take maters into our own hands. The best solution would be to have the both of them caught in the act and arrested. If not, the club would be going on another hunting party not stopping until both Carmen and Charlie were dead, which would hopefully be a short trip witht eh help of Yasmin. Wall wanted Jewels and Yasmin included in the body count, but we would cross that bridge when we got there. Once the shit with Carmen and Bree’s mother was dealt with there would be an anonymous file delivered to two of the detectives that he knew. One was known for being on the take for certain individuals while the other walk
ed the straight and narrow. It would get back to the Kovaleski’s and Derek would be no more. When Derek disappeared or was locked up, Bree would then inherit all of the shares of the company along with all his assets. If we were able to pull this off all of our problems would be dealt with leaving us looking like upstanding citizens. I’d have to admit that it seemed like the best course of action. The problems would be eradicated, we wouldn’t have to worry about Bree hating us because we were the ones to kill her parents and it would hopefully keep her of the mob’s fucking radar.
“Looks like lil Anthony has thought of everything boys. Sounds like a rock-solid idea to me. Now we just sit back and wait for the shit to unwind. Don’t want to waiting too damn long, though. I want all this shit over and done with by the time I meet my woman at end of the fucking aisle. You need to get that shit over to the lawyer, so he can make contact with the Loftland’s. Time to get the ball rolling. The sooner the fucking better. Now who all you want riding with you to town Tank,” Axle asked?
“I don’t want to draw attention but I don’t want to go in light either. I’ll take Wall and Throttle with me. With Tony that makes four of us. I want at least one of you fuckers with me in the car. I’m not chancing Bree on the back of my bike. I know you don’t think the Russians are involved as far as Bree is concerned but I’m not willing to risk her. I want to get into town and get the fuck back. I want Happy to tap into the county database to pull up the properties so we won’t have to make to stops. If he can’t then she’ll just have to wait. It’s not like we can make any offers right now anyway. She’s got to get the money from the sale of her shares first.”
Now that we had things settled somewhat we all divided up to go our separate ways. I went in search of the prospect to get him to round up my car. It was parked at the clubhouse under the carport attached to the back of the building. Call me over cautious but I wanted them to go over that bitch with a fine-tooth comb. If the fuckers we’re dealing with are stupid enough to try and roast Romy and Izzy like marshmallows I wouldn’t but it past them to rig something to one of our vehicles. Precautions would need to be put in place to monitor that shit.
When it was time to leave Bree didn’t protest to much with taking the car being she sat in the kitchen with the rest of the women right up until the last minute talking about plans for what they wanted to accomplish with building their “empire”. As ridiculous as it might seem to outsiders looking in I was happy to see they were able to focus on something other then the shit looming over the club. When I pulled Bree away she promised to be as quick as possible so she could get back to help finish planning Avery and Axle wedding.
The president and his old lady had set a date for August 25th. In less than two months they would be the first to tie the knot in our generation of the club. I have no doubt that Carrin and Zeus would be right behind them. One day it would be Bree planning our wedding and surprisingly enough the thought didn’t make my skin crawl. When the time comes she should be a pro at throwing it together.
At least for now the wedding planning scheduled with the girls this afternoon was enough of an excuse to allow Happy to work his magic from his computer, so we wouldn’t have to make the stop at the recorder of deeds. Thank the lord for small miracles. The bank would be our only stop and then I could rush her back home and lock her away for the next two weeks.
The trip to the bank was pretty uneventful. Tony met with the manager of the bank to explain everything he wanted to get taken care of. Old man Burke had been dealing with the club and their accounts since the old heads set up shop in Great Falls. He knew our money was the reason the bank was able to ward off the big names wanting to buy them out. Burke was more than happy to help my girl out. Bree took Tony’s advice setting the accounts up needing two signatures putting my name on the account. Bree tried to argue when I had Burke add Bree to my accounts as well. It was only fair that she has access to the money I’ve been able to save as well. I wasn’t lying when I said I wanted to take care of her for the rest of her life. I might be on bending knee just yet, but I know Bree was it for me.
Around four o’clock we finally made our way out of the bank. The whole way home Bree was quiet, looking like she had something she wanted to say. I’m sure it was because Tony was in the car with us and I’m sure once we were out of the car she would let me have it. Once we were parked in the driveway she proved my suspicions correct. Bree climbed from the front seat to allow Tony to emerge from the back only to sit back down in the car and pull the door closed shutting Tony out. Tony stood and starred at her for just a second before realizing he was an outsider to the conversation about to take place. He walked back towards the house shaking his head leaving me in the small confinements of my car while I waited for my girl to tell me what was going on it that head of hers.
When Bree didn’t speak up I decided it was time to get through the storm she had brewing inside her. “Angel, do you want to tell me what’s going on or am I going to have to guess? You got something to say just say it, babe. I don’t know what it is and if your worried I’ll be mad I promise you I won’t be. I just need you to talk to me. Tell me what you need to say so we can move on and get you back in the house to your girls. You’ve made plans with them to finish planning a wedding. They’re only going to give you a few minutes out her before coming out to drag your ass back inside with them. I won’t get you to myself until we curl up tonight.”
When she turned to look at me she looked like she was trying not to cry. Not knowing what to say I leaned over the center console and kissed her forehead. When I started to pull back she threw herself at me wrapping her arms around my neck. Instantly I wrapped my arms around her to pull her close. I only got to hold her for a moment before she pulled herself back to answer my earlier question.
“I’m just a little overwhelmed. I didn’t add you on the accounts today because I expected you to return the favor. I added you because I trust you whole heartedly. Your kind of it for me too, Tank. Even though we’ve only been official for less than a week, it feels like we’ve been together for years. I’ve wanted you since the first time I met you at the diner. You have no idea how long I’ve dreamed of having you and being a part of this family. To finally have everything I’ve been dreaming of has me on cloud nine. I’m just trying to process everything. I finally feel like I belong. I’ve finally found myself and my place in this world. It’s right her beside you and our family.”
“Baby, I know you’ve had lot of shit thrown at your feet in the last few months, but I was there for you every step of the way. If I could go back and change the last few years I would. I would have taken what I wanted from the start instead of keeping myself from you. Believe me when I say I was trying to be the bigger person. I didn’t want to taint you with my lifestyle. I’m not an easy man to love, babe. I never will be, but you’ll never find a man that will love you and take care of you like me. I want to take care of you babe,” I said honestly.
“I love you, Tank, and I want to take care of you too. I want us to use that money to build our house. I want a place that we call ours and build a future together. You need to let me do this for us. I don’t want you touching a cent of the money you’ve worked so hard to save. My inheritance is just what it is, inheritance. I didn’t have to work for it but I’m not turning it down either. It will serve its purpose taking care of us and our family.”
“Angel, you put up with those god-awful people your entire life. If anyone has earned that money, it’s you. Your bitch of a mother put you through hell. She left scars that most people wouldn’t be strong enough to overcome without becoming jaded. You made it through that shit while staying true to yourself. We’ll get our dream house built, babe. Whatever you want it’s yours! Now let’s file this shit away for another day. I’m hungry as fuck and Madison is on here way out the door as we speak. Time to go hang with the girls, baby. I’m going over the clubhouse for a bit. I’ll see you later tonight, beautiful.”
I gave her a
kiss just as Madison made it to the car. Jokingly she tapped on the window saying something about us needing to get a room. With my dick hard as steel I regretted being the bigger person. All I wanted to do was yank Breezy out of the car and take her to our room our room for the rest of the night. I couldn’t do that to her though or at least not today. I’d give her a few days for her body to get use to me fucking her regularly before I locked her in our room to take her every which way I felt like.
Chapter 21
Breezy
The last two weeks have flown by with little excitement. The only excitement I’ve experienced comes at bedtime when I get to curl up next to my sexy man. Every night and most mornings, even a few afternoons, Tank works my body over like it’s his life’s mission. He was holding back a bit for the first few days worry whether or not I was still sore. Finally, I snapped yelling that I wasn’t some precious china doll. Ever since that night I’ve been gifted with the most sensual being on the planet. My dreams have never lived up to the actual reality of Phillip Gray. The man is sex on a stick and he knows it. I never thought I would enjoy the rough hair pulling, ass smacking, dirty talking sex, but he has turned me into some kind of nympho. All he has to do is give me that sexy grin of his and I’m wet. Oh my, what that beast of a man does to me! It’s not just the sex either. You would never believe the man had never been in a committed relationship before. Tank is so attentive and sweet at times it makes me want to cry. Little things like making my coffee just the way I like it or washing my hair for me when we shower together. In return I make sure our laundry is done and make his plate for him at dinner time. We are so in sync with each other anyone who didn’t know our story would swear we’ve been together forever.
