silly grin on his face.”
Tabby was looking at me in disgust as he walked through the doorway behind Fudge the club’s Road Manager. As they took their seats, Inferno, Twiggy, and Linc strolled in, closing the door behind them.
“I’ll call church later, but for now we need to sort out this mess with The Scarlet Runners.”
Whilst taking his place at the head of the table, Inferno hasn’t wasted any time on greetings as he spoke. For the next half hour, Inferno quickly brought us all up to date. A new biker gang is attempting to move into The Scarlet Runner’s territory. From what Sinbad could find out, a few of them were ex-members of Black County Stewards, intending to take over The Scarlet Runner’s patch, and maybe part of Black County’s old turf.
“Has anyone spoken to Tats?”
“I’m going down tomorrow.”
Fudge responds to my question. The frustrated tone in his voice has me looking over at him, his eyes firmly on me.
“Do you want me to come with you?”
“It might be a good idea if you do Dec. And while you and Fudge are visiting Tat’s, Tabby and I will visit Sinbad.”
“Sure, but I’ll need one of the prospects to sit with Ivy while I’m gone.”
“I’ll send Quick Draw over, she’s familiar with him, and your dad knows him”
Although Inferno didn’t question me about using one of the prospects, he did shake his head, while attempting to hide a smug smile from me. I don’t know what was going off in the heads of my brothers, but it almost felt as though they were ganging up against me. As though they knew something, which I didn’t.
“Fine. What time do you want to head out Fudge?”
“Early. The quicker we deal with this the better as far as I’m concerned.”
“What about you Twiggy, when are you going back on the road.”
“Not soon enough if you ask me.”
Unsure, if the rest of the room heard Fudge’s comment as he muttered under his breath, I turned my gaze towards him. Surprised by the killer look he was sending in Twiggy’s direction.
“Not yet, I thought I’d hang around until we know more about the new MC.”
The low vibrating growl, which came from Fudge, has me both frowning and smiling.
“What’s got your shit Fudge?”
The glare, which had been directed at Twiggy, was now aimed at me. Unfazed by Fudge’s scowl, I leaned against the back of my chair, swinging on the rear until I was balancing on the two hind legs, and smiled innocently at the road manager.
Although I’ve just spent ten days on the road with Twiggy and Yvette, I was doubtful if anything had occurred between them. All I know is that Twiggy is more protective of the woman than Fudge was. As much as I would have enjoyed watching the drama pan out. At this particular moment, I had my own problems with a certain redhead. Itching to be away from the club and in Ivy’s company, I was surprised at how ready I was to call it a night.
“Rayven and Baby Blu are organizing a homecoming party for Ivy this weekend.”
Tabby threw the remark out to the room, which received a snigger from Inferno and Linc. Yeah, their old ladies enjoyed a party and it appears they weren’t letting parenthood hinder their lives.
Shit, if they were throwing a party, who was going to watch Pa? Damn, another obstacle I was going to have to sort out. There was no way I was letting Ivy come to the club on her own. Fuck the other brother’s may think she was available and although, I wasn’t ready to put Ivy under my protection, neither was I ready to let any other fucker mess around with what was mine.
“Did you say something Dec?”
Tabby’s little dig made me realize that I had emitted a growl of my own.
“I was just confirming with Fudge that I’ll be at his place at eight. Are you okay with that Fudge?”
“Yeah man.”
“Time to get out of here boys, let’s wrap this up. The ladies will be here soon.”
As soon as Inferno calls the meeting to a close, the room quickly emptied and I
