Chapter 29
Bonnie
I had been back at the Titan Kings club for almost two weeks. I had heard from Carbon, even Fury text me to check in, but I hadn’t heard from Bane. I was still kind of angry with the way he treated me, but I knew I would have to speak to him soon.
Rider was also pushing me to make a decision on what club to be a member of. Ink had sat me down on my own a few days after we arrived and offered me a patch too, if I wanted to stay here with Rider. I was grateful that he wanted me to stay here, but was the reason just because I was in a relationship with his son?
I did enjoy being here, Ink had given me some jobs to do, and I spent a lot of time with Rider’s brothers, and of course I have Kirsty and Bella, even Julia too although I don’t see her as often. I do really like being here, but my mind keeps wondering if I’m here because Ink thinks I’m good or if it’s because I&rs
Chapter 30RiderMy girls beautiful face paled.Anger quickly replaced the shock and she jumped up suddenly, knocking the chair down that she had just been occupying. She started pacing up and down the office.“I don’t want to see her.” Sky told him finally.“She’s missed you.” Bane tried to defend her mother.“She missed me so much that she hasn’t spoken to me in, what, 7 years?” she cried defiantly.“I know what she did was wrong, she knows it too, but she wants you to hear her side of things.” He continued.“No. I won’t see her. She’s dead to me.” Sky shouted, tears welling up in her eyes. I couldn’t bare to see her like this.“That’s enough.” I told them. I waited for them to calm down before speaking again. “Sky has made it clear that she isn’t interested in
Chapter 31Bonnie“I’m here.” I said, dragging myself out of the comfortable bed. I headed to the door where Ink and Rider stood. I looked at Ink’s face, noticing the worry on his face. I stilled. Something was wrong.“What’s happened?” Rider asked.“Bane left after you walked out Rider, he wanted to give you some time, so he booked on to the next flight. He arranged for one of his brothers to pick him up from the airport.”I started getting anxious, my breathing rapidly increased, as well as my heart rate.“Dad, tell us.” Rider urged.“They crashed. Someone hit them side on, the driver is fine, walked away with a few cuts and bruises, but Bane was in the passenger seat, the side that was hit.” He explained.My body started shaking. “Is he dead?” I asked, tears streaming down my cheeks.He shook his
Chapter 32Bonnie“Wait…” I heard Carla say.The doctor stopped and turned back to her.“And you are?” he asked.“My name is Carla Clearwater.” My mother explained.“Are you a blood relative?” the doctor asked, confused.“I’m not… but my daughter is.” I was in shock. I felt like I couldn’t breathe, that I wasn’t inhaling enough oxygen quick enough. “What are you talking about?” Rider asked, as I started to gasp for breath, Rider must have heard me panicking and turned to me, and pulled me into his solid body, holding me impossibly close to him.“Sky, Skylar, I’m so sorry you had to find out like this.” She started.“Find out what exactly?” Rider asked again.Carla blew out a long breath before speaking again.“Bane i
Chapter 33Bonnie“Bane, there’s something I need to tell you.” My mother cut in, interrupting the interrogation between my father and myself.He turned to my mother, “what’s going on?” he asked.“18 years ago, I left you. I never told you the reason why.” My mother started.“You met that other man and wanted to marry him.” My dad offered.“Yes, but that wasn’t the only reason. I was pregnant.”“Are you trying to tell me that you were pregnant with my baby when you left?” he asked in disbelief.My mother nodded.He looked over to me, tears were streaming down my cheeks.“You’re my daughter.” He whispered.I nodded slowly.He closed his eyes and I saw tears streaming down his cheeks.“You’re my daughter.” He repeated, still in shock.

Bane made an announcement on the night of the ‘welcome home’ party that Sky is his daughter. We hung around until Bane had his casts removed from his arm and leg. Her mother stuck around for a few days until she found someone else to move in with. We haven’t heard from her since.We also had to tell Bane and the rest of the brothers, mine and hers, that we were engaged.

Chapter 1Ink1994“Hey man!” David turned to see one of the guys from his art class running behind him. “What’s up?” David asked, coolly. “I have a job you might be interested in. You got class now?” I shook my head. “No, not till later.” “Cool, let’s walk.” He said, as he headed off in the same direction I had been heading. “So, you know there’s the party tonight at the frat house?” I nodded slowly, wondering where he was going with this. I never went to any of the parties. Was never invited, not that I gave a fuck. “Well, some of the guys have decided to get some tattoos, and I thought about you.” He told me. “No.” I said, immediately. “Ah, come on man! They’ve got money!” he told me. “Fuck no.” I told him again.“They’ll pay you $500 for the night.
Chapter 2TinaI ran from the basement of the frat house, ignoring the sex noises going on around me. I quickly ran out of the front door. He had asked too many questions. I felt guilty about giving him the fake name and number, but I couldn’t risk it. I was leaving tomorrow.I walked the streets for a little while, needing to be out as long as possible. My mom didn’t finish work for another hour, and I wasn’t going home to my stepfather or stepbrother without her. &n
Chapter 3InkIt was my last few weeks in college. I had decided to open up a tattoo shop not too far away from campus. Paul was going to come and work with me, turned out, he was pretty handy with a gun too. He was also smart as fuck and could easily do the books and whatever else was needed. We had found the ideal location and I had paid a few hundred dollars to a few kids to paint it while we finished our exams.The day had finally arrived. We had invitations sent to previous clients, friends, family, anyone we knew really. We headed up to the front of the building and admired it before we stepped foot inside. We were 21 years old and had our own business! It was crazy.We walked into the bright, sterile white walls. The black and white square tiles on the floor gave the room a Victorian vibe. There was a small desk in the middle, we would eventually hire a receptionist to deal with this area. A few potted plants sat i

Chapter 28RiderThe flight was quicker than last time. I couldn’t hold my happiness back that Sky had chosen to come back with me to my club. What Bane did was sneaky, but it worked. I knew he wasn’t going to give her a full patch, not when she was debating where she wanted to be. I wanted to try and explain it to Sky, but in the end, this way worked out better for me.We landed easily enough, and Axel was there to pick us up from the airport. “Hey brother!” He called, when he saw us leaving the terminal. “Hey.” I said, “still not talking much I see,” he smirked at me. “Bonnie, nice to see you, sunshine, how is the leg?” he asked my girl, “it’s almost all better now, thanks Axel.” She smiled.We put our cases in the back of the truck and headed down the long road that would eventually lead me back home. I held Sky’s hand the entire
Chapter 27BonnieAfter being completely humiliated in church, I ran back to my room. I had heard Rider standing up for me as I ran out of the room, begging myself to control my tears. I didn’t want anyone to see me cry. It wasn’t long after I had thrown myself on my bed when I heard Rider at my door. He told me I had half an hour before he came back, I knew I wouldn’t be able to get rid of him again, so I needed to get my ass up and get shit done.My humiliation soon turned to anger at my rejection in front of all my brothers, and I knew I didn’t want to face them anymore. Without thinking it through properly, I grabbed my suitcase out of my closet and started to throw my stuff in. I was done. I wanted out.Rider knocked back on soon enough, I knew he would be back so I unlocked the door so he could just come in. “It’s open.” I called.He opened the door and walked in. My
Chapter 26Rider“I haven’t dismissed you yet.” Bane called to Sky as she walked to the door. I could see her glassy eyes and knew she was about to cry, she wouldn’t do it in here though, I knew it must have been a battle to let her brothers allow her to prospect for them, let alone give her a patch. She wouldn’t want them to see her as weak, so I did what I had to. I stood up, taking Bane’s attention off my girl and bringing it to me.“This isn’t what we discussed.” I told him.Bane’s eyes widened as he took in my words.“No, it wasn’t, but she needs to know. I’m not fucking around, patching her in, and putting our emblem on for her cut, for her then to request a transfer in a few weeks.” He explained.“I understand, but I thought that was something you would discuss in your office.” I snarled.“Why?
