Maz POV

Today has been long. I've spent the entire day working. Mondays are the worst, but I think that's more because I've spent all weekend with King, and now I'm faced with not seeing him for hours. Then, there's the chance after he's busy with the club, so I won't see him even more today. It's like I'm having withdrawals from him.

I hate hiding our relationship, but he only has two months left. He studied elsewhere for years until he got a spot here. I'm glad he did, as I doubt we would be together otherwise.

Something that makes me want to work is the sketches and poems that King writes and draws. I love the small bit of happiness I get when I see the piece of paper before I even see what he's drawn or written.

I've got to go through divorce things, so today I don't leave the lecture hall, I sit and work on it from my laptop, which shocks King when he walks in with the paper.

Looking at him, I smile.

"Not a surprise if ya fuckin' here to see me put it down." He laughs and places

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Bringing Him Back

    Maz POVI stand shaking, and Big King looks at me."Need to make it clear to ya, don't keep shit hidden that will cause a fuckin' riot. He should have fuckin' known about this," he points at the pictures."I didn't know what was in the envelope. I had forgotten about it, Big King, I swear." I looked towards the door, worried about King. He moves and walks to Edward, dragging him up from the floor.His face is all blooded, so he took a lot of hits before we got here."She is protected, ya stay the fuck away from her. If I so much as catch ya looking in her direction or tryin' to get close to speaking to her, I will take ya fuckin' tongue, do ya understand!" He shouts, and Edward nods quickly."She isn't just some woman, and considering the fact ya fuckin' hit her repeatedly, ya should count yourself lucky to still have ya fuckin' hands."I watch Edward nodding quickly, but he doesn't speak."Say what the fuck ya want to the police. Won't believe ya anyway, as we were all at the fuckin

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Questions

    Maz POVAs we get closer, I hear Big King.“Ya takin’ the piss, my boy was fuckin’ ‘ere. What is it, Delcote? Still tryin’ to find a way to take down the club and now makin’ up some bullshit story?” He glares at the cop.“Come on, King, I need to question them both.” The cop turns to look at me. “I’m Delcote. You must be Mazikeen, Edward’s wife,” he says.“Ex. Wife,” King growls.“Legally still his wife, Ezekiel. Is there somewhere I can ask her questions, or am I taking her in?” He asks.“Use the first bay in the garage. It’s empty,” Big King points, and Delcote leads me over. Standing inside, I look at him."Need to know what happened with your husband? His face is pretty badly beaten and needs stitches on his eye," he stands, looking at me."No idea, I didn't even know he was hurt," I lie, and he sighs."He says you were there, and Lucinda also confirms his version. So what happened, as they said Ezekiel did it?" he asks, and I shrug. I'm not about to agree; in some ways, Edward de

    Maz POVTurning, I look at King. I need to explain what else was said, as they clearly have no idea."He didn't just ask about Edward," I explain. Everyone stares at me. "He asked me if I knew about the cannabis farm they found this morning," I explain.Big King laughs. "Empty cannabis farm, there was fuck all there for them to use," he continues to laugh. So it is, it is to do with them? What else do they do behind closed doors that I don't know about?"And Jacob, he mentioned him and tried to get me to speak about it. I told him I didn't know anything," I explain.Big King laughs. "They are diggin' not much they can do without proof," he pats my back, and I almost fall, which makes him laugh more. I swear he does it every fucking time. I watch as he walks off with the others.Turning, I look at King. "What the fuck happened with Skin?" I ask."Two things. He overheard a conversation. That's how he knew you had a daughter. Doesn't know the specifics, just you have a daughter you don'

    Maz POVAfter our argument last night, King fucked relentlessly on the floor, then told me it was purely to point out that if they hadn't sorted shit, he couldn't do that cause of how fucked the wood was.He was right. The wood in the house was fucked, so them sanding it and painting everything has helped.I feel him kiss me, and it stirs me from my sleep."Gotta go, babe. Shit needs sorting at the club. See ya later," he whispers. I don't wake up enough to reply. I just mumble back to him.I'm not sure how long after he left I woke up fully, but the side he sleeps in is cold, so he must have left hours ago. Turning, I see the paper on the bed. I smile and reach for it. Turning it over, my eyes widen.The sketch shows a person with the centre of their body hollowed out and empty. There's no longer a heart there. I read the poem.Hollowed outEmpty withinNothing lingersNothing livesCold spreads quicklyHardeningTurning into iceFragile and weakenedCracks begin to formUntil shatte

    Maz POVI stop outside my place and help Tony out of the car."Sorry for showing up battered sweetpea," he whispers, and I nod. I can't exactly blame him when it was fucking King. Why would he do it? He knows. I told King my brother is Tony, so did he do it just to be an asshole? God, why did this have to happen?I let him sit and walk to the kitchen, grabbing the first aid box. Why? What the hell could Tony have done to warrant King beating him, let alone shooting a bullet right next to his head? Would he have really shot him?Wiping my eyes, I walk back over and use the cloth to clean his face. He moves and shrugs his jacket off, groaning as he does."Think the fuckers broke my ribs," he grunts, and I pull his top off, seeing the bruises."I'm sorry," I cry. God, this is my fault. It has to be. King did this because of me. What other reason is there for him to do this?"Sweetpea, not ya fucking fault. Assholes just

    Maz POVTony glares at King."Get the fuck away from him, Sweetpea," Tony shouts, and my head shakes. King's arm stays wrapped around my body, and his other hand is grasped into my hair. It makes me feel safe; it reminds me I'm safe, and there's no way I am walking away from King.Standing, I cry into his chest. God, all this time, I had no idea Tony caused it. I had no idea he was part of it all."How about, rather than telling her to get away from me, ya think back and consider what the fuck ya did when she was fourteen that fucked with The Bears and pissed 'em off!" King shouts, and I hear movement."She didn't tell ya, neither did ya parents. She was raped at fourteen. They cut The Bears patch into her fucking hip. The fuckin' cunt got her pregnant and came back for the baby, but ya didn't know that, right? Great fuckin' club ya part of that rape and beat women," Big King shouts.The room falls quiet for a moment. Did he

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Making Up

    Maz POVWhen I woke up, King's arms and legs were still wrapped around my body. I felt safe here. He is like a giant man cage protecting me. If I could stay here for life, I would. I know that no one can get close enough to hurt me while King is wrapped around my body."Yesterday was hard, babe, but at least now we're gettin' answers. Tony might be able to help find ya daughter as well," he explains, and I nod. Something tells me Tony won't know. If he had no idea about what had happened to me, how would he have known about my daughter? Surely, if they hid what happened to me from him, they would hide my daughter as well? I turn in his hold to look at him. I don't want to talk about any of it, not yet.My arms reach up and wrap around his neck. Kissing him, I push my body closer to him. "You didn't fuck me yesterday, King. I'm not letting you out of this bed until you have," I smirk, and he laughs. I mean it, though; yesterday was too different

    Maz POVKing doesn't move, and Tony glares at him. Doc and Ink sit chuckling, and I feel like something has happened we don't know about."What's ya problem?" King shouts and looks at Tony. I want to go back upstairs to the peaceful life we had when we woke up without the drama of everything and everyone."Don't agree with her being with ya, that's what. She deserves fuckin' better," Tony argues, and I sigh."Well, it's not ya choice, is it," King mutters. He's right. Tony has no right in my life. I kiss King's neck and keep my body wrapped around him."No, but I ain't happy about having to sit here and hear ya fuckin' using her in bed," Tony shouts, and my eyes widen. Shit, of course, they heard. I hadn't even thought about that.King steps forward. "Using her! I didn't fuckin' use her," he shouts and I bite against his ear, he groans and stops before looking at me."Still attached to your back," I laugh, and he roll

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Happy

    Caleb’s POVThe roar of the bikes fills the air as we pull up to the clubhouse. It’s been months since the twins were born, and life hasn’t slowed down for a second. I park my bike and glance over at King, who’s smirking like he’s already a step ahead of me. He probably is. He’s been in a good place lately—focused, lighter even. It’s strange to see after everything, but I can’t complain. He’s my brother, and for the first time in years, it feels like we’re truly in sync.The twins have turned our world upside down in the best way. Queenie’s been handling everything like a pro, balancing the chaos of our family with the chaos of club life. Baby Caleb is toddling around like he owns the place, and the twins, Ruby and Daisy, are always keeping us on our toes. Life is full, and though it’s overwhelming sometimes, it’s everything I didn’t know I wanted.I step off my bike and stretch. King does the same, then glances at me with a grin. “Ready for today?”“Yeah,” I reply, though my voice fe

    King’s POVIt’s been two months since we found out Queenie was having girls—twins. Two months of chaos, laughter, and a whole lot of learnin'. Sittin' on the clubhouse steps with a cup of coffee in my hand, I let my thoughts drift. Life feels different now. Better, maybe. Calmer. Though “calm” isn’t exactly the word I’d use to describe this club or my family.I’ve been spendin' more time with Kian. It’s something I should’ve done years ago but never did. I was too wrapped up in myself, in the club, in provin' I was the best choice for Prez. Kian was always just the kid in the background. Now, I see him for who he is—a sharp, thoughtful kid with a wicked sense of humor. He’s not a biker, not in the traditional sense, but he’s found his place here. He’s good with numbers, helping with the financial side of things, and he’s got this way of readin' people that reminds me of his mom.He’s been givin' me shit lately, though. “Finally realized I exist, huh?” he joked a few weeks ago when I i

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   The Babies

    Queenie’s POVSix months. It feels like a lifetime ago and yet just yesterday that everything changed. Lying here waiting for the woman to do the scan, I watch King and Caleb as they stand together. The sight makes my heart swell in a way I never thought possible. They’re so in sync now, their bond stronger than it’s ever been, and it’s a relief to see the tension that once lingered between them completely gone.King laughs at something Caleb says, and it’s such a genuine, carefree sound that I find myself smiling too. I still can’t believe how far he’s come. The darkness that used to grip him so tightly seems to have loosened its hold. It’s not gone entirely—I doubt it ever will be—but it’s no longer the thing that defines him. He’s lighter now, freer, and seeing him like this makes me love him even more.We’ve been staying at the club more than the cabin these past few months, something I never thought I’d be okay with. When King first suggested splitting our time between here and t

    CalebShe’s a menace. A complete and utter menace. But God help me, I can’t resist her, not when she’s looking at me like that. The way she bites her lip and presses against me, whispering my name like it’s a plea and a command all at once—I’m a goner.Her lips are on mine, hot and demanding, and my hands move instinctively, sliding over her to feel the warmth of her skin. She’s soft, all curves and fire, and I’m reminded just how good it feels to have her like this. Like she’s mine. Like there’s no one else in the world.“Queenie,” I murmur against her mouth, trying to find some semblance of control. My hands tighten on her waist, holding her still as she grinds against me, her body determined to undo whatever resolve I have left. “We’re going to be late for everything, you know that, right?”Her laugh is breathless, filled with mischief. “Worth it,” she says again, her voice low and teasing, and it’s all the encouragement I need.Flipping her onto her back, I pin her beneath me, my

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Trying And Failing

    Queenie POVI wake up wedged between Caleb and King, feeling the weight of yesterday pressing on my chest. My mind replays everything in vivid detail, questioning every moment. If I hadn’t fought, would Delcote have still searched me? Or was it all just a punishment for not complying? He left me with my phone, almost as if he wanted me to panic.Then there’s the question of whether kicking his seat and enraging him had been a smart move. Sure, it made him stop, and that gave them the chance to find me—but did I escalate things? My thoughts spiral until I glance over to Caleb Jr.’s crib and notice it’s empty. My heart skips a beat as I sit up in a panic.“Rose and Maz have 'im,” King mutters groggily beside me. His voice is thick with sleep, and he doesn’t even open his eyes. “He woke up around half six, wanted to play, so they took him.”Relief washes over me as I let out a long breath and flop back down beside him.“How are ya feeling?” he asks quietly, turning his head to look at me

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Sorting Him

    King’s POVAs we leave the hospital, the nurse hands me a printout of the ultrasound. The blurry black-and-white image of two tiny figures takes my breath away. Twins. I stare at it for a moment, the reality sinkin' in. This wasn’t how I imagined gettin' 'er checked would go, but here we are. Sliding the picture into my jacket pocket, I pull out my phone and shoot a quick message to Rose, askin' 'er to grab the portable crib and a bag of essentials from the cabin. “We’re stayin' at the club tonight,” I explain to Caleb and Queenie, who both nod in agreement.The ride back feels heavier, quieter, as if we’re all lost in our thoughts. Queenie holds onto Caleb, her grip tighter than usual, while I keep glancin' over to make sure she’s okay. The wind whips around us, but the silence between us speaks louder than anything.When we finally arrive at the club, the warm light spillin' from the windows feels oddly comfortin'. The moment we walk through the doors, Queenie makes a beeline for ba

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Finding Her

    Caleb’s POVAs we step out of the club, Honey’s voice cuts through the cool night air. “Why is Delcote back in town?” she asks, her casual tone sharp against the tension bubbling inside me. She leans casually against her car, her eyes narrowing as she looks at us. “I saw his car near the college earlier today.”Her words feel like a punch to the gut. I stop dead in my tracks, turning to meet King’s gaze. His expression mirrors mine—panic mixed with raw anger. His fists clench at his sides as his jaw tightens.“What did ya just say?” King growls, his voice low and dangerous.Honey raises an eyebrow, sensing the change in the air. “I saw his car near the campus,” she repeats slowly, looking between us. “What’s going on?”Before either of us can answer, Dad stops behind us, his voice booming as he barks orders. “Rose! Maz!” he calls out and I see them coming to the door. “Keep the baby with you. Don’t leave the club for anythin'. Got it?”Rose’s arms tighten around baby Caleb instinctive

  • Cursed Kings MC Books 1-4   Forgotten

    Queenie’s POVThe end of the workday couldn’t come fast enough. I step outside, shivering as the cool air nips at my skin. My eyes scan the parking lot, but there’s no sign of King’s bike or Caleb’s. My brows furrow in confusion. They said they’d pick me up—didn’t they?I wait a few minutes, pacing slightly, trying to keep warm. Pulling out my phone, I dial Caleb first. No answer. I try King next, but it goes straight to voicemail. A frustrated sigh escapes me, and I glance up and down the street. No way am I waiting. I begin walking, deciding it will be quicker than waiting if they have totally forgotten me.The walk home feels longer than it should. My feet ache from a long shift, and the chill in the air creeps through my jacket. I forgot my purse at home this morning, so no money for a taxi or bus. Just me and the quiet streets.The faint sound of an engine behind me draws my attention. I glance back, squinting under the dim glow of a streetlamp. A patrol car slows, rolling up bes

    King POV“I don’t want it,” Caleb mutters after a beat, his voice low but firm. Everyone stares at him, stunned. “I didn’t bring up that shit to get a shot at taking over. Right now, I don’t want it. I don’t want to be stuck here constantly, not when Queenie…” He trails off, realizin' he’s said too much.“Not when Queenie what?” Ink’s sharp tone cuts through the tension like a knife.Caleb sighs heavily, his hands runnin' through his hair. “Not when things are finally settlin' down. I don’t want to be tied 'ere and have 'er back at the cabin, never seein' each other.”Dad’s expression hardens. “Then why the fuck bring it up if ya didn’t want to take over?”I groan, hatin' the way this is spiraling. “He didn’t bring it up to take over,” I snap, tryin' to shield Caleb from the risin' tension. “He told Queenie, and Queenie told me. I asked him about it—he wasn’t plannin' on makin' it public.”My dad glares at both of us, frustration clear.Before he can argue I talk again. “Even if he di
