own head. I’ll still be here whatever you choose.” Cher leans in and kisses me softly.
“Thank you Tank. It’s been hard on me. I feel like he’s still out there you know? I hate that feeling.” Pulling her closer to me, I look her in the eyes.
“I get it. Trust me I do but I won’t let anythin’ happen to you.” I rest my forehead against hers. I need her to know and understand that I won’t let anyone hurt her again. She’s mine now.
“I know.” Kissing her again quickly I scoot back and lay down. I just want to get a good night’s sleep before dealing with hell again tomorrow.
“Get up here sweetheart. We need some rest.” Cher climbs up and snuggles into my side. I never thought I would like having someone in my bed and all over me but Cher changes that for me. I love having her snuggled into my side.
She fits me perfectly.
Chapter 15
Another day another hell. Creed and I have been out almost all day looking into all this shit. Nothing makes sense and nothing shows up either.
None of the other local clubs are having any kind of threats or problems. That usually means that this shit is directed at us. I don’t like the feeling I get knowing that. We have kept pretty well to ourselves other than the mishap with the Shadow’s over Kenny.
“I don’t know Creed. This shit is not lookin’ right. We haven’t had a beef with any other clubs brother. Surely the fuckin’ Shadows didn’t come up with a sharp shooter.” Creed shakes his head as confused as I am.
“You wouldn’t think. Shit Tank. I think we need to take a break and come back fresh brother. As of right now we don’t have a direct threat on the club.” My eyes cut to his when he says that. Dougie was a part of the club although out of a different chapter. That shit still doesn’t sit right with me.
“Don’t fuckin’ look at me like that brother. I didn’t mean it like that. I’m talkin’ about our clubhouse, our brothers here. You really think I would let Dougie’s death go?”
I know he wouldn’t. Shaking my head, I scrub my hand over my face, this is just all getting to be too much too fast.
“I just don’t like any of this shit. It all feels off brother.” Creed puts his hand on my shoulder, he knows the feelings I get aren’t for nothing.
“I know Tank. Trust me I know but we aren’t gettin’ anywhere with this shit and we need a break. This club has taken hit after hit.” I nod my head because I know all of this. I know how much this club has suffered and how much betrayal ran through its blood.
“You’re right. Let’s roll. Take a break, clear our heads.” Creed nods as we walk out of the office. I take a deep breath as I walk down the stairs trying to clear my head.
This may be exactly what we need. A time to reflect and get new insight.
I walk down the hallway towards my room where I left the girls this morning.
Heading in I see Bella but not Cher.
“What are you doin’?” Bella scribbles in a notebook before looking up at me.
“Homework. Piper gave me a damn list of stuff to do.” Rolling her eyes, I can’t help but smile. I’m glad Piper is pushing her into schoolwork. Bella isn’t a dumb girl. If she puts her mind to something, she can do it. I have a good feeling that Piper can see that in her too.
“That’s good. Can’t believe you haven’t run him off yet.” Lighting up a cigarette I sit in the chair next to the bed.
“Real nice dad. I can be nice sometimes you know?” I let out a soft chuckle before looking up at her.
“I know you can. Where’s Cher?” Bella looks back at her book before she speaks. I watch her as she focuses on what she’s doing. I hope this girl makes something out of herself. She deserves that much.
“Outside on the phone.”
“With who?” Bella makes a weird face at me.
“I don’t know dad. I didn’t know that I had to babysit your girlfriend. Oh, by the way how old is Cher? She looks almost
