Six Hours. Five Minutes. Sixteen Seconds.
That is all it took for one woman to grab a hold on me. Her fiery spirit and smokin’ hot legs drive me fuckin’ crazy. She has no clue what I would do for her, but I finally get why Stavros is such a pussy when it comes to Harlyn.
I knew that shit wouldn’t be easy with her and, even though I wanted nothing more than to own that red head, I jumped in dick first and didn’t think about the consequences. Every kiss, touch and suck from her mouth took me from the loveless marriage I’ve been tied to for way too fuckin’ long. I never thought that I would ever end up leaving that bitch, Tina, but the more I think about Trix and my son, the more I want to get the fuck away from her so I can be the father and man that I’m supposed to be.
At first, I didn’t want to admit that I was his father. But, after all the shit that I watched Stavros go through, I don’t want to lose him or his mother because I’m a coward.
Now that the lock down is over, Tina’s stupid ass is at the house again and I’ve been spending my nights in the fuckin’ clubhouse. I fucked Trix all through her pregnancy, even when I didn't believe Blade was mine. The only thing that put the brakes on us is being at the clubhouse with my wife. Shit, I'd never met him until she showed up with him on her hip.
Just thinking about the last time I had that girl under me turns me on. Before I can even reach for my phone to call her, there is a soft knock on the door. Getting up from my bed, I adjust myself and swing it open. Her tear-streaked face is the first thing that catches my attention. I don’t see our son anywhere in sight, so I pull her into my room.
“E,” she whispers. I hook an arm around her, and pull her body to mine. She sobs against my chest for a few minutes before I grab her chin and force her to look at me.
“What’s wrong?” My whole body tenses with worry and, when she doesn’t say anything, I ask about Blade. “Is Blade okay?”
She wipes at her tears, but it doesn’t stop her from crying. I walk us over to the bed and take a seat, pulling her into my lap. “Baby, I need you to tell me what’s wrong.” She hiccups and wipes her nose with her hand. “I can’t do anything if I don’t know what you need from me.”
“I had a visit from CPS. Apparently, someone called them and told them that I was abusing Blade.” I feel anger course through my veins and I reach over for my phone. I swear to God if that bitch did this, I’ll slit her damn throat.
“What are you doing?” she asks, wide eyed. I search for that bitch’s contact and hit the number when it appears. When she answers, I don’t bother being fuckin’ nice. I could care less if I hurt her damn feelings. She’s crossed the damn line, and I won’t hesitate to making her pay.
“Hello, E. Are you finally coming home to satisfy your wife?” I feel Trix tense in my arms when she hears the bitch.
“No, I fuckin’ called because you are fuckin’ with the wrong person. Call off your fuckin’ dogs, and stay the fuck away from Trixie and my son. You make another call to CPS, and I won’t give you a warning next time.” I seethe. She wants to play fuckin’ games? I’ll show her just how much far I’ll take it.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, E. I didn’t call anyone. But maybe that whore isn’t so fit to raise your son.” I can hear the venom in her tone and, if I were in the same room as her, I’d fuckin’ kill her.
“No, cunt you aren’t fit to raise that boy. Call it off or I’ll make you wish you never met me.” I hang up before she can even say anything else. Looking down at Trix, I see her hands clenched into fists and the tears silently running down her face.
“Why would she do something that hateful?” She and I both know the answer to that, but I don’t say anything. I don’t even know what to say. That bitch isn’t the same woman I married right out of high school. I should have fuckin’ listened when all my buddies told me that she was a snake in sheep’s clothing. But, like a fuckin’ idiot, I was only thinking with my dick. She fucked like a porn star, and sucked my dick better than any bitch I’d ever known. Well… until now.
“She wants what you have. She is jealous that you had my son, and all she fuckin’ has from me is a ring.” I move the red hair from her face and tuck it behind her ear. “I won’t let them take him away from you.” I press my lips against her forehead. Her fingers dig into my back, and the only thing I can think of is making sure that her and Blade are always taken care of.
“E.” She whispers. Her small hand cups my cheek, and I know that she’s about to say something that I’m going to fuckin’ hate. It’s what she always does when things get rough. When she told me she was pregnant, I flipped the fuck out. She put her hand on my cheek just like she’s doing now and, after she delivered the news, I put a hole in the wall before I left the fuckin’ clubhouse.
I drove for days after her news, and I didn’t even bother to call her when I got back. I threw all my time and energy into working on my bike and working out with Stavros. At first, I didn't even bother thinking about her until I couldn’t help myself and every thought of mine focused on her again. Of course, it didn't take long before we started fuckin’ again.
“Just fuckin�
�� spit it out, Trix. I’m a grown man. I can handle it.” A frown mars her perfect face, and I hate that I’m being a dick to her. She deserves so much more than me and this shit that I seem to drag into her life.
“I can’t keep up with this shit. She is slowly ruining my life and…” She trails off and I want to tell her that I’ll be done with her, but I don’t know if I can. I tried when I figured out that I was in love with Trix, but Tina threatened to kill herself. Maybe I should have let her, and then I wouldn’t be getting this speech from Trix right fuckin’ now. “I’m afraid for Blade’s safety. Maybe…” She looks down at her hands that are twisting together.
She doesn’t want to do it just as much as I don’t want to hear her say the words. “We should just end it for good.” A tear slides down her cheek, and I can’t help but focus on it. I don’t want to see the pain in her eyes, and I don’t want to listen to her damn words. We’ve ended this thing between us more times than I can count, but we always come back for more. She pulls me in and wraps her arms around my heart, even when I fuckin’ want nothing to do with her. Right now, I don’t want to let go.
“Elec, please say something,” she pleads when I don’t say anything for a long time.
“What do you want me to say?” I bark out. She shrinks back and a tear trails down her face. She doesn’t want me to say what I am really thinking right now. It will only push her further away from me, and I don’t want to do that.
“I just…” She bites her bottom lip, and I wish it were me doing it. My spine is so ramrod straight with anger and hurt that I can’t move. “I want you to be part of his life, but…” She doesn’t finish her sentence. I already know what she’s going to say. She doesn’t want my wife anywhere near him. Tina has already fucked things up between Trix and me, and is only trying to make Trix pay for being the other woman.
“You don’t want him near Tina. Yeah, I get that. She won’t go near him. You have my word.” She nods her head slowly, and her eyes never leave the ground. “You need money? You come to me, not my Prez. He’s not the one that knocked you up, so he doesn’t need to help you. Blade is mine, and I won’t let either of you want for anything.” Her eyes meet mine and they widen a fraction.
“How…?” She didn’t think he’d tell me.
“Prez told me what he did. I told him to take it out of my cut. I won’t let another man raise my son, or pay for the things he needs. I’m his father, and I’ll be the only father he knows.” Her eyes finally meet mine and I see anger in them.
“You have no say in that anymore,” she sneers. “You made that choice when you promised me a forever, and all I ever got was lies. You said you were leaving her, and now she’s trying to get my son taken away from me. You didn’t even believe that he was yours. I did it all by myself, and look what it’s gotten me!” She yells at me.
She turns to walk towards the door and I reach out, grabbing her arm. “Don’t,” she whispers. Her anger is gone, and it’s replaced with the hurt and sadness that I always seem to bring her. “Just let me go, E. I don’t want to fight with you anymore, and I sure as hell don’t want to be your second choice. Blade and I deserve more. We deserve the happily ever after.”
She pulls out of my grip, and I watch her walk towards the door. She doesn’t even bother turning around one last time. Her head tilts towards the ground before I see her shoulders heave and she walks out the door. Watching the door that she walked through, I can feel my heart break into a million different pieces. She needs to know that I would never let Tina take Blade away from her. Grabbing my phone from my pocket, I dial Prez’s number and wait for him to answer. He’s been on edge all damn week since he got out of the hospital, but I don’t know what else to do.
“Yeah, E?” He answers on the third ring. He sounds pissed off and, even though I don’t want to add to it, I need to protect Trix and Blade from my wife.
“Tina called CPS on Trix. She’s trying to get my son taken away from his mother.” I hear him say fuck a couple of times before he sighs and tells me to come to his office. “I’ll be there in a minute,” I answer before hitting the END button.
Making my way to his office, I stop and stare at the door for a minute before I knock. I need to get rid of that bitch. She’s fuckin’ slowly draining the damn life out of me, and I don’t want to lose the only good fuckin’ thing in my life because I couldn’t cut the fuckin’ cord when I know it is the right thing.
Knocking, I hear him yell out for me to come in. When I open the door, I see the bottle of Johnny sitting on his desk, and he’s leaning back in his chair, nursing a glass of the liquor. “Take a seat,” he mutters. I shut the door and take a seat across from the man I’ve looked up to since I joined this club. He doesn’t always seem to have his head on straight, but he protects what’s his and never backs down from a fight.
“What happened?” he asks. He doesn’t ever sugarcoat shit, and I’m grateful for that.
“Tina called CPS, and now Trix wants nothing to do with me.” He snorts at that, and I tighten my hands into fists in my lap.
“Finally, she’s getting smart. I told Trix to stay the fuck away from you from day one, but you charmed the panties off of her and put her under your goddamn spell.” I shake my head at him and watch him.
“I fuckin’ love her,” I state when he doesn’t say anything else.
“Then it doesn’t sound like it’s a hard decision. “ He deadpans like I’m an idiot and shouldn’t need advice from him. “Call the CPS fuckers, and tell them that your wife is a vindictive bitch who is trying to get your son taken from his mom because she’s a jealous bitch. I don’t know what else to tell you, kid. You want Trix, fight for her. Don’t let her walk away so easily because, if you do, someone else is going to take your place.”
I feel anger coarse through my veins at that last statement. My VP has been sniffing around her for fuckin’ weeks. Ever since the lock down, he’s been going out of his way to help her out. “You mean Romeo,” I grit out.
He chuckles at my tone, and I don’t feel like its fuckin’ funny one bit. He isn’t taking my girl. I don’t give a fuck who he is. “Then I suggest you don’t give him any more opportunities than you already have.” I nod and stand from my chair. I’ll make her listen to me if it’s the last thing I do. She doesn’t get to walk away from this shit just because she thinks I’m not all in. I am, and I’ll make sure she stays the fuck away from my VP.
My mind wanders back to the lockdown, and having both Trix and Tina in the same place for a period of time.
“Does she know?” Stavros asks.
“That I sneak in here? No, she’d be pissed. I fucked this shit up so damn bad. I want to be part of his life.” I run my hands over my face and I get it. I’m fuckin’ pissed that I didn’t believe Trix. I should have just listened to her when she told me he was mine. I wouldn’t be missing out on his damn life like I am. “Tina is starting to put it together. I can only imagine what she’s going to say when she sees him closer up. Trix has stayed as far away from us as she can since she got here, not that I blame her.”
“Why aren’t you giving her money?” Stavros doesn’t flip the fuck out like I thought he would. He loves them like they are his family. I don’t blame him. I love her, too, even if I’m too stupid to tell her.
I close my eyes and shake my head. “For the longest time, I didn’t want to believe that he was mine. Trix sleeps with all the brothers.” He cuts me off, but I don’t blame him. He probably thinks I’m goin’ to bad mouth her.
“She hasn’t slept with any of the brothers in the last year. I told her it was her choice when she came to me. She wanted out of the game, and I give her a job working at one of the clubs as a waitress. That way, she was making money and being able to provide for herself.” I can feel the shock register on my face. I had no fuckin’ clue. Hell, I don’t even want to believe it now. There is no fuckin’ way she only came here for me.
“She only came around for me?” He shrugs his
shoulders, but doesn’t really give me a straight answer.
“I only know that she wanted to make a change in her life and I gave her the opportunity. I could tell she was in love with someone. I just didn’t know who until she showed up pregnant and alone. You broke her when you said you didn’t want anything to do with her after she got pregnant. Probably because you thought you weren’t the father, but brother there is no denying that little boy is yours.” I nod, but don’t say anything.
“Yet you still called her when you wanted your dick sucked or a fuck. She isn’t your damn plaything. You will be providing for Blade. I don’t give a fuck what happens in your marriage because of this. Man the fuck up, and take care of your kid.”
I nod in agreement, because I will take care of my boy. There is no doubt that I will. He’s mine, and I’m claiming him. “I will Prez.”
“I gave her money the other day. She’s working her ass off, and doesn’t have a pot to piss in.” My Prez giving her money pisses me off. It should be me that takes care of them. He should know that there is no way that I’ll just let him give her money.
“Take what you gave her out of my cut. Every time. I want to take care of them.” Prez nods his head and, when we look over to the bed, Blade is awake and reaching out for Stavros. Part of me wishes that it was me he wanted, but he doesn’t know me at all.
A little hand reaches out towards me, and I don’t know what to do. Stavros moves closer towards me, and I reach out to grab Blade’s chubby little hand. Blade looks up at me and watches my every move. I feel the emotions take over me, and I don’t know how to handle the feelings that are running through me. The door flies open, and I watch as Tina comes barging in. Fuck. This is all I fuckin’ need. That bitch better not say one word about Trix or Blade. “You’re fuckin’ that whore, aren’t you? Where is she?” Tina starts looking around the room for Trix, but I walk over to her and grab her waist, pulling her towards the door and away from my son.
“Shut the fuck up,” I growl when I push her into the wall behind her. She tries to fight me. She’s no match for me, and I can see the anger build up inside of her until the baby starts to cry. She instantly stops struggling against me and her eyes move to him.
