"What are you doing here? Last time I saw you, you said you never wanted to see me or my club again!" Smokey retorted. "I was young and just lost my brother. I was devastated." Jo replied. "It wasn't my fault he wrecked his bike and died. I tried to keep him from leaving on it. But he was stronger than me and wouldn't listen." Smokey explained. "I know. I just needed time to sort myself out." Jo said softly. "Five years?" Smokey scoffed. "Why now?""Can we go somewhere private and talk? There's some things we need to sort out." Jo replied. "Man, I don't think that's a good idea!" Ice warned. "We just need closure. So, we can both move on. I heard you're getting married tomorrow?" Jo asked. "I am. She's the love of my life and having my baby." Smokey stated. Against Jax and Ice's advice, Smokey took Jo to his room. "I'm really sorry how I left. You're right. I did blame you and it wasn't fair. I know you did everything you could to stop him. It wasn't your fault. Can you forgi
The girls left and went to Sam's house. Smokey was still wound up. "Fuck! I messed up so bad Prez." He retorted."Let her calm down, and you sober up. Then you both can sit down and talk about it." Jax explained. "You don't know her. I don't think she'll ever talk to me again. My chest feels like someone is stabbing me to death." Smokey groaned. "I'm sure you'll work it out. She's having your baby. You just need to sleep it off, then go talk to her." Ice replied. "She was so mad and upset. I could see it. Fuck! She canceled the wedding!" Smokey replied."It can be rescheduled." Jax replied. "You don't understand. Cheating is the one thing Sam can't forgive." Smokey groaned again. "Yeah but it didn't get that far." Ice reminds him. "What the fuck was I thinking? Fuck! I'm so stupid to fall for her bullshit! I just ruined the best thing in my life!" Smokey shouted. "Brother you need to calm down and sleep it off. Things will look better in the morning. Then you guys can talk." J
She finally calmed down and Ice handed her a bottle of water. As she tried to grab it, she dropped it. "Ouch." "Beautiful, what did you do?" Snake asked. "She beat the shit out of a home wrecker slut! That's what." Kim huffed. "And you guys let her? In her condition?" Snake retorted. "It happened so fast. She was like a tornado. But the brothers jumped in and broke it up as quick as they could. We had no idea she would attack her." Kim replied. "Hawk? Go find Makenzie." Snake ordered. "Got it Prez." Hawk replied. "How did you know about Smokey?" Sam asked. "Makenzie called Hawk. We were almost to town, so we came straight here." Snake explained. "Thanks for coming. Smokey will appreciate it." Sam replied. "You want to explain what happened?" Snake asked. "Not right now." Sam replied. "Girl what have you done?" Makenzie asked. "She hurt her hand when she punched out a skank." Raine replied. "Come on. Let's go get that looked at." Makenzie replied. "I'll come with you." S
"I'm so scared that he still loves her. And I can't get that picture out of my head. My biggest fear is what if I hadn't walked in? Would he have fucked her and cheated on me the night before our wedding?" Sam sobbed. "I think things happen for a reason. That you were right where you needed to be at the right time. Just remember nothing other than kissing happened, and it was mostly one sided." Jax reminded her. "I don't know. I feel like our trust is broken, if it is, there is no future for us other than parents. I can't live with someone I can't trust. I can't live in fear of him not being faithful to me. I can't help thinking if he truly loved me more than anyone, he'd not let himself get in that situation. And that he did allow it, raises so many questions for me, so much doubt." Sam's voice trembled. "I admit he was stupid taking her to his room. But I really believe the alcohol and shock of seeing her after all this time messed his mind up. Dealing with that shit sober is bad
Just then Sam's cell rang. The caller id showed it was Jax. "Hello?" Sam asked. "Just letting you know they are running more tests and aren't letting anyone in with him for the next few hours. They're concerned with his punctured lung." Jax explained. "Have they said how bad they think it is?" Sam asked. "No. But by the look on their faces, I'd say it’s bad." Jax replied. "Ok. Keep me posted. I'll stay here and get some more rest." Sam replied. "Just remember our talk." Jax cautioned. Sam looked at her phone as if he could see her. "How could I forget?" "I'll call back as soon as I know anything else." Jax replied. "Ok." Sam replied as she hung up. "Everything ok?" Snake asked. "More tests." Sam replied. "So, food?" Snake asked. "I'm not hungry." Sam replied. "Beautiful, you have to eat. You got to feed that baby." Snake reminded her. "Ok. Sesame chicken with pork fried rice." Sam replied. "Ok sounds good. I'll call it in now." Snake replied. "That should give me enou
"I can't get that scene out of my head. I can't stop thinking he was really going to fuck her! I just can't. I feel like we are broken now, and I don't know how to proceed. How I should act, what I should do." Sam explained. "Smokey loves you, I know he also loves this baby. I just don't know what he was thinking when he took her to his room to talk. I honestly can't understand it. But you'll need to let him explain." Raine replied. "I feel like if he truly loved me, he would never have done that to me. And this isn't the first or second time I thought something else was going on." Sam replied. "What do you mean?" Kim asked. "Once I went to the clubhouse and Daisy was naked in his room when I knocked. She opened the door, and he was naked on the bed asleep." Sam explained. “So, I left and went to Will's house. Then I backed out and left. I couldn't go through with being with him. Not when Smokey had my heart." Sam replied."What the fuck? What did he say?" Raine asked. "He said
Snake returned from the store and went to Sam's kitchen and put away the groceries. He also brought the girls Chinese. After they ate the girls hugged Sam and left. Sam's cell phone rang. "Hello?" Sam answered. "Sam, I'm at the hospital and you need to get down here asap." Jax replied. "Sam? You hear me?" Jax repeated. "Yea, yeah, be right there." Sam agreed and hung up. "Was that Jax? What's wrong?" Snake asked. "He didn't say. Just said to get to the hospital." Sam replied. "Ok. Let's go." Snake replied. They arrived at the hospital and Jax met them at the hallway outside the CCU unit. Dr. Mike was with him. "Mike?" Sam asked. "Let's go in the consult room." Dr. Mike replied. Sam, Jax, and Snake followed him in a room. "Ok talk. What's going on?" Sam demanded. "We took him down to run tests on his lungs and to make sure his broken ribs haven't moved any. The nurse had noticed his breathing and heart acceleration. He had a Pneumothorax.” Doc paused.“We were able to rein
"Sam...no....no" Adrian whispered. "Adrian, can you open your eyes? You're in the hospital but don't move, ok? You have a chest tube in. The doctor will be here soon." Sam explained. The nurse walked in. "Is our patient awake?" "I think so. He was trying to talk and seems like he's more aware." Sam replied. "Keep talking to him. Let him hear your voice." She replied. "Adrian? It's Sam. Can you open your eyes?" Sam asked. "Sam?" He whispered. It took multiple tries but he managed to open his eyes. The nurse got him some water and left to call the doctor. "What happened?" He rasped. "Drink some more water. It'll help your throat but just small sips." Sam replied. After a few more sips Sam explained. "You remember getting drunk?" He nodded. "You remember Jo?" His eyes widened then he nodded. "We fought and I left. Then you got on your motorcycle drunk and went after me." He looked confused like he was trying to remember. "I remember everything up to you leaving." He finally
"Well I'm not exactly who you think I am." Pamela started. "I know who you are." Ace interjected. Pamela continued. "I've been hanging out with the Vet MC for research." "Because you're an author." Ace interrupted. "I had a new book idea, wait what? You know?" Pamela asked puzzled. "Jax told my dad the whole story. Besides, we had you investigated anyway. While we don't do illegal things, we still are very selective of who we allow around our club." Ace explained. "So you've known this whole time who I really was?" Pamela asked. "Of course." Ace replied. "And you still want me here? The club is ok with what I do?" She asked. "Yes, and yes. As long as you know you can never write about the real club life here or mention any of our members by name in any book." Ace warned. "I would never." Pamela reassured him. "Good. Now that is settled, I'm still waiting for an answer." Ace remarked. "I'd still have to go to the Vet MC to talk with the ladies. Raine, Kim, and Sam are telli
"Lexi here is my girlfriend." TJ replied."Yeah, and don't forget it skank!" Lexi warned."Honey please! TJ doesn't know the meaning of faithful. I just have to get him all horny and worked up and he'll be mine for the fucking." She laughed.Pamela knew Lexi was gonna lose it, so she stepped back. Lexi grabbed the skank by the back of her head and slammed her face into the bar. Blood splattered from her nose and mouth. The skank was crying and sputtering."You busted my nose!" She whined."You better get out of my sight before I cut a bitch!' Lexi warned.She opened her switch blade with a little fancy move that made it hiss. The skanks eyes widened before she ran off screaming."Keep that psycho away from me!" She wailed."If you can't run with the big dogs, stay home." Lexi laughed.Pamela and Ace joined in on the laughter. Lexi walked over to TJ and grabbed his nuts very firmly and not in a feel-good way. In a warning you're gonna lose them way."Your turn. You decide here and now.
Trish turned and ran out the door. A couple guys were waiting on her and grabbed her. Pamela walked out and BJ Jr. was standing there."What's going to happen to her?" She asked."A copy of the recording we just made will be given to the police department. My guys will deliver her and the recording. I'm sure she'll be charged with attempted murder over the accident." He explained."So, you're not going to take her outback and shoot her?" Pamela asked.BJ Jr. laughed hard. "Son, you got one with a vivid imagination here. Good luck with that!""I look forward to it." Ace smirked.It's been a week since Trish was arrested. Things have been quiet. Hanna had decided to talk to Maverick about marriage."So, you remember when I was upset after your sister's wedding?" Hanna asked."Yes." Maverick replied."The reason why, was because I was jealous of her." Hanna explained."Baby, what do you have to be jealous of?" Maverick asked."She got the whole package. The guy, marriage, and a baby on t
"Yeah you have two large windows in your bedroom." Maverick replied."You sleep nude or something?" TJ laughed."You wish Romeo! But no, it's just creepy that someone will be watching me while I sleep." Pamela retorted."I could come in and help you get to sleep." TJ suggested."That's a big no! I can manage just fine on my own lover boy." Pamela declined. Pamela went inside and locked the door. Trish's car was spotted driving by. It was her first mistake she made. A week had passed with nothing happening. Pamela and TJ were still keeping up the pretense of dating. Friday night they had a party at the Vet MC clubhouse. Jokers were invited. After a while, Pamela went to the bathroom to get away from TJ. He'd kept hanging all over her taking advantage of the situation and it was getting on her last nerve. She was starting to get pissed off so she took a break before she blew their cover. As she rounded the corner to the bathroom, someone came up behind her. They put one hand over her
"It's a good plan. I've just not been able to catch her at anything." BJ Jr replied."But dangerous for Pamela. We all know how crazy these bitches can be." Ice grumbled."I'm willing to risk it. Hanna has become a great friend. Before I came here, I really didn't have any friends. So, if I can do something to help her and protect her then I'm all in for it. That's what you do for friends and family." Pamela replied."Woman you're not family. You're just allowed to hang around like the club whores." Hawk retorted. "I don't think I pulled your dog chain nor did I ask for your two cents old man!" Pamela glared at him."That's enough Hawk. You want Lexi to go in and do this?" Jax demanded. Hawk looked down at the floor. "Didn't think so. So shut the fuck up.""Well, I'm game. I'll take one for the team." TJ laughed."Oh please! Like that's a hard job. Having a gorgeous girl pretend she's into you." Snake huffed."Heck pretending will be easy on my end of course, but hey hers too." TJ sm
"What happened? Could she have a friend?" Pamela asked."It's a long story that's best left in the past. I don't think she had anyone." Hanna replied."Oh." Pamela responded."So, who?" Jasmine asked."Sorry I'm drawing a blank. I can't remember having words with any women." Hanna replied."No one who's been hateful to you? Any guys you may have messed with that had jealous girlfriends? Or any girls in Maverick's past?" Pamela questioned."I can’t... umm wait there was one thing but it was minor. And I did not go after her boyfriend. But Maverick said something to him for flirting with me." Hanna replied. "Yeah, that girl was a raging skanky bitch!" Jasmine responded."Yeah, but it was for maybe 2 minutes and only happened once." Hanna responded."Any other women said anything to you?" Pamela asked."No." Hanna denied."I think we should tell my dad." Jasmine said."Let me get Mav." Hanna sighed. Pamela, Hanna, Jasmine, Maverick, and Maddox go to Jax's office. "Dad we have a theory
While she's sitting there, Hanna came up and sat beside her. "Hi, I'm Hanna.""I'm Pamela." She replied."You're new. Just passing through or visiting?" Hanna asked."Not sure yet." Pamela replied."Would you like to join me and my friends?" Hanna asked."Sure." Pamela responded. They went over to the table where Jasmine, Jessi, and Lexi were sitting."This is Pamela." Hanna announced. That's Jessi my cousin, Jasmine, and Lexi. Jazz and Lex are like family. Our moms have been best friends forever and we all grew up together.""Nice to meet y'all." Pamela replied. Brady walked over to their table. "Sis, ladies, who's your friend?""Her name is Pamela and you need to back off!" Hanna retorted."What? I just came over to be friendly." Brady laughed."Sure you did, Mr. Player himself." Hanna huffed."Ladies. Hey baby." Maddox replied as he bent down to kiss Jasmine."Pamela this is Jazz's boyfriend Maddox." Hanna explained.Maverick walked up behind Hanna. "Hey baby who's your friend?"
He stepped aside to let her in the office. He closed the door and sat back behind his desk. Raine sat down on his lap. "Sit. What's your name?" He asked."Pamela." She replied as she sat down."Pamela?" Raine asked."Just Pamela." She replied.Raine looked like she was thinking pretty hard. But doesn't say anything."Ok you've got my attention. Talk." Jax demanded."Before I tell you I need to know that it won't go any further than this room." Pamela explained."Sweetheart I can't promise shit till I know what you have to say." Jax replied."Ok." She sighed. "I guess I'll have to take my chances that you'll understand. I want a waitress job here for some research work I'm doing. And before you get all defensive it's not what you think.""I'm listening." Jax replied. "I'm not with the cops or government. I just recently graduated with my English lit degree to further my career of being an author. Or trying to. I've published several stories but got writer’s block. Then I decided to t
"If it's TJ behind this, all bets are off!" Maverick responded."There's things going on you don't know. I'll explain when I get there. You're just going to have to trust me that I'm doing everything in my power to take care of this. I can't have you going off halfcocked not knowing what's going on." Jax warned."No promises." Maverick replied."Find Hanna then we'll talk." Jax ordered. "Son that's an order.""Fine!" Maverick agreed. They finally found Hanna's car and she was taken to the hospital. Maverick lost his shit, but luckily Jax got to him before any damage was done."Son calm down!" Jax ordered. "If you don’t, I'll have the brothers take you to the clubhouse.""If I find out that fucker had anything to do with this, I'll end him!" Maverick warned.Hanna finally woke up but before the doctors let her family in, they had to run tests. Finally, they were done and let her mom, dads, and Maverick see her."Hey honey, how are you feeling?" Sam asked."Baby I was worried sick!" Ma
