Read Online Too Wild To Ride (Steel Veins MC Romance, #1) by Adair Rymer - Free Book Online

“Remy,” I asked. “Was that a quote from someone earlier?”
    “Erwin Rommel. German commander in the second world war.” He yawned.
    “German? So he was a Nazi. Why were you quoting a bad guy?”
    “Rommel plotted to assassinate Hitler.” He looked at me intently, all the sleep brushed from his eyes. “Star, anyone on the losing end of a war is a bad guy.”
    “Is that what your planning on doing? Starting a war?” I asked, trying to decode the meaning behind Remy's history lesson. I felt like I was piecing a larger story together.
    “Yes.”
    “The Lobos were at your motel before the cops were. We're in their territory, aren’t we? The strip club we're going to is owned by them too, isn't it? Just like the convenience store.”
    “How did you know all that?” Remy was surprised but impressed.
    “I heard the cops in Vegas talking about it and pieced the rest together.” I shrugged. “So what's your plan here? Why're you stirring up the bees' nest?”
    “If I can convince the Lobos that the Veins are gearing up for war, and that I'm being hunted by them, they'll have reason to believe I need their protection. Then I'll just have to convince them of my value.” Remy drove us around the parking garage until we found another beat up shit box.
    He got out to switch the plates again.
    “How are you going to do that?” I scanned the area to make sure no one was coming.
    “All I need is one more bargaining chip.”
    “Ah.” And that's where I came in to all of this. “That's why we're headed to the strip club.”  Remy finished screwing on the new plate and we took off. It didn't seem like he was going to offer anything else up, so I just had to ask him. I couldn't hold my tongue any longer. “You're asking me to become a stripper. It'd be crazy if I didn't at least ask you why.”
    “You getting cold feet already?” He raised a skeptical eyebrow at me.
    “No! I'm just... I'm a little nervous and I don't want to screw anything up. I've never done something like this before.”
    “What's left of Lorenzo's team is out looking for me. They're going to find me at Teasers. When they do, you're going to be my eyes and ears. You'll let me know where they are and how many are there, then you're going to have to distract them. I need to get Lorenzo alone. But most importantly, I'll need you to give me this when I ask for it.” Remy tapped the handle of his pistol. “They don't search strippers.”
    “Oh.” I smiled. I kinda felt like a spy on a secret mission. “I take it Lorenzo has the chip you need?
    “No. Lorenzo is the chip. The Lobos hate the Veins but Bones, the current President of the club, especially hates Lorenzo. If I can deliver Lorenzo, I'll have proved that I'm trustworthy.”
    “Why don't we just run away, maybe go to Canada? Why do all this?”
    “The Steel Veins used to be a brotherhood I loved more than anything else in this world. We protected the community and each other. All the violence was justified. We had a purpose. A code. They were my family.”
    “So why fight them? Let's just leave!” The concept of that kind of family was hard to wrap my head around.
    “Any beloved relative of yours ever get cancer?”
    “Yeah, my Grandpa Bob.”
    “You brought him to the hospital and got him treatment, right?”
    I blinked. “Yes, of course!”
    “Deadeye's gone soft over the years and allowed low men like Lorenzo and even his shitty kid, Rio, into the club. These men are the cancer that's killing the greatness of the Steel Veins. I'm going to be the scalpel and radiation. I'm going to use the Lobos' resources to cut off the dead limbs in the Veins and then destroy the Lobos from the inside.”
    “Will the Veins accept you back if you pull this off? You did kill Deadeye's son.”
    “I don't know. Rommel was eventually linked to the conspiracy against Hitler. He allowed himself to be executed for high treason so that his family and staff may live.” He'd obviously thought
