“Savannah.”

“Please.” I beg. I take him deeper and as I do, I swallow. This action sets him off because I feel the warmth of his release hit my throat. I pull back slightly, trying to gather myself as my eyes water. I work at keeping everything in my mouth as I swallow him down.

“Christ.” He pulls me up and kisses me. His tongue enters my mouth and I know he can taste the tang of him that still lingers. “Fuck,” he says. “I can taste my cum in your mouth.”

“Sorry.” I’m a bit embarrassed and the once confident Savannah is met with the shy side.

“Don’t be.” He smiles. “Me wrapped in the sweetness of your kiss. It will be the second best fucking flavor in the world.”

“Second?” I question.

He looks me straight in the eyes and responds. “The first being when I have your cum on my tongue.” He proceeds to do just that.

Jury is a packed house today. Every member of our charter is in attendance, plus my Mom and Savannah sitting to the side. Louie is scheduled be there in thirty minutes. Having him and two of his members will only add to the tension that I’m already feeling. “Why are we involving them, again?” I ask Cut.

“I need to get a sense as to what we’re dealing with,” he answers.

“We already know that his kid being taken is legit. Dyke confirmed this already. This should be a typical club meet and not involving the females.” I argue.

“It’s already been decided and the matter is closed.” He says back. “Hawk.” He looks over to my best friend, “I need you to watch him, don’t take your eyes off of him. He’s going to know my mom, but if things are right, he’s not going to know Savannah and therefore he should have no reaction to her. If he's working with Redding, I’m sure his body language is going to give him away.” He scans the table. “We aren’t dealing with this situation as a MC. We’re dealing with it as bounty hunters, meaning that our people skills and what we look for when we bring jumpers in is in full force.”

I glance to my mom and she looks uncomfortable. Club business is something she walked away from years ago. This isn’t her time or her issue and it pisses me off that she’s still caught up in all this. I wish she would pack her bags and go somewhere where the curse of being part of the club can’t touch her. She’s lost too much because my dad chose to live a life in a MC. She stayed because she loved him. She supported his dreams and because of that, she’s lived the past several years in a nightmare full of death and heartache.

Savannah’s face is full of apprehension. Those pouty lips, which were wrapped around my cock not too long ago, are in a thin straight line. Her brows crease as she sits in deep thought. I still haven’t mentioned the letter to her, and I’m not going to. I dropped it back on the floor last night when I came back to the room. I noticed this morning, that once I was showered, it was gone. Does it bother me that she’s keeping it from me? Yes. But I know her and she’s going to do whatever she can to rid me of any more stress. She thinks she’s harboring this burden of Redding by herself. What she doesn’t get is that she’ll never have to do anything by herself again.

A knock on the door tells us it’s time. “He’s here.” Cut announces. Chairs slide along the wood floors as everyone shifts in their seats. A prospect opens the door and in walks Louie Jr. along with his VP and SIA. The resemblance to his father is uncanny. It’s like looking at the man I used to see as a kid. Our territory lines were clear, but it isn’t perfect and as a child, I liked to push the lines and there were times when I went where I shouldn’t have. Mostly because I was following Cut around. “Louie.” Cut regards him.

“I want to thank you for helping me out.” He says as he continues to stand near the entrance of the room. He glances around the room, his eyes passing over Savannah without a flinch and landing on my mom, which causes me to give a small smile. He completely ignored her, which tells me that Redding does not have him or the Diablos in his pocket. “Bianca.” The fact that he regards my mother doesn’t sit well with me. My fists clench and it takes everything in me not to stand and rip the throat from his body.

“Louie.” She says. “It’s been a long time, mijo.”

“Yes, it has.” His voice is full of regret. He turns back around and faces my brother. “I know I’m the last person you want here, and the last one you would want to help, but like I’ve stated before, I’m out of options. There's no way in hell that I’m going to allow this bastard to keep my daughter. She’s been gone too long and I’m done with the waiting.”

“We’ll get her.” Cut reassures him.

“No disrespect, but I’m not willing to take your word on the safety of my daughter. I won’t believe that until she’s safely back at home with me, her mother and the rest of her family.” He takes a deep breath. “Look. I know you have no responsibility to help me. I know the only reason why you’re even entertaining the idea is because I have something you want. I’m good on my word. I understand the hell my father has brought to your family. I know the struggles you’ve dealt with because of his actions. If I were able, I would have handed him over a long time ago. But it wasn’t my choice. Just like you, I live by a code and a set of rules. The only reason why it’s an option now is because I’ve pleaded my case and my club loves my little girl as though she is their own.”

His description of the love his club has for his daughter is just how the members were with Sienna. She may have only had one father, but she had many uncles who would have laid down their life for her. One did. Hawk’s father lost his life because he was part of the raid that killed a couple of their club members. Him seeking vengeance for what they did to my sister and father cost him his life.

That’s the past. I have to remember that, and let it go and move on. My mind shifts to the little girl that Savannah is carrying. Will she have the same love surrounding her as Louie’s daughter has? Will the club be able to protect her? Many kids have grown up in the shadow of the club, but around here, it’s mostly been boys. Sienna only had Tessa growing up and Tessa’s family wasn’t a part of this life. She and her three brothers stayed far away from the MC. They never seemed to have any interest in it. Because of that, Sienna was surrounded mostly by the boys and men.

“This isn’t just about righting a wrong from the past.” Cut says, many of the guys grunting in agreement. “I’m not gonna lie and tell you that us getting the pleasure of ending your father’s life isn’t the icing on the cake, but no father should ever go through what you’re going through. We may not all be fathers at this table. Some of us have grown children, some are expecting soon.” His eyes cut to me and the feeling of pride explodes from my chest. “But we don’t have to be fathers to realize that you’re going through hell.”

“So what’s the plan?” Louie asks.

“The plan is that we get your daughter back and once we have her; we will give her to you when we get Louie Sr.”

“Wait,” he says. “You’re going to hold my daughter ransom for my old man?”

“This is a business transaction and nothing more. You have goods that we want. We’ll have the goods that you want. It’s that simple.” Cut says.

“Did you really think we would hand her over without our payment?” Lick asks.

“No, of course not. I’m just going to have to work on getting my father out of hiding.”

“Then your girl will be ready and waiting for you.” Dyke states. “I’m sure you’re nothing like your old man, but we've been burned to the core by your kind and we aint willing to walk through that fire again. This is the way it is and the way it will remain. If you agree, we get your girl, if not then you need to move and make your moves fast because word on the underground is that a few American beauties are making their way south of the border by week’s end. And it aint for no Mexican vacation either.”

“I understand. Just get her and I’ll bring him.”
