The Valkyrie MC Chapter Twenty Two
THE DUCHESSI was finally ready twenty minutes late, but I'm the boss, so phooey.“Hey, boss?” Karma shouted when she saw Duke and I walking down the stairs.“What's up, K?” I raised one eyebrow.“Just wanted to let you know I've requested a quote for soundproofing for your bedroom, and, because that will take a while, I've ordered noise cancelling headphones for all patched members.”The Duke snorted, trying to hold back his laughter and failing.“I hope that includes Duke and I, K, you’re just as bad and you are right next door.”“Of course, boss,” she grinned. “No one would have heard me over you two just now though, trust me.”“Alright, alright,” I chuckled. “Everyone ready to roll?”I glanced around the room, meeting Shotgun and Shorty’s eyes, both of whom nodded.“Okay then, let’s get going. The sooner we get this done, the sooner we can come home.” I turned to face Duke. “I’ll see you later.” I pressed a chaste kiss to his lips. “I love you.”“I love you too, my Duchess,” he ki

THE DUCHESS“You actually have a face?”She spun the laptop to face me, looking very proud of herself.“Smashed it, Shorty. Can you run facial and see if you can ID the guy?”She shrugged. “Hopefully, boss. The quality is not good. I might be able to get a shortlist, but if anyone can get any further information, that would be handy.”“Thanks, Shorty. Can you send me a copy of that photo? We’ll see if anyone knows our mystery crap arsonist. Tank, can you show a printout of that around the club and see if anyone recognises them?”They both nodded.Now, to call Fishnet and my Duke.The phone rang for what felt like forever. Fishnet can be pretty bad at picking up the phone when she wants to be.“Duchess!” she shouted when she eventually answered.“Hey, Fishnet. Can you grab Rogue and the Duke, drag them into Ragnarök, and stick me on loudspeaker?”A couple minutes of shuffling and they were all there.“Alright, boss. What's going on?” Fishnet's voice was all business.“I'm about to emai
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Twenty Four
KARMAI dragged the Duchess to the clubhouse’s bar. A shooting range would have been better for venting anger, but the one here wasn’t on the club’s grounds and I knew she wouldn't want to go that far. This one also doesn’t have the stash of axes and throwing knives we have at home, and that was really what she needed at this moment in time.The one thing Thunderstruck did always have going for it though was a well stocked bar. “Not having a great time with relatives at the moment, are you, boss?” I couldn’t hold back the chuckle in my voice as I spoke, pouring us a hearty glass each from the bottle of whiskey I’d grabbed when I leaned over the bar.She scowled at me, downing her drink. It was a good thing I’d known her as long as I had and that we were as close as we are because otherwise she’d have killed me by now, second or not.An hour and lots of drinking later, I watched her pull out her phone, put it on speaker phone and dial someone, stalking back towards the chapel as she d
The Valkyrie MC Prologue & Chapter One
PROLOGUETHE DUCHESSFriday nights are my favourite.Unless we’re out on a job, we have a party at my bar, Valhalla.We drink too much, smoke too much, fuck around, whatever it is that makes us happy.This week was like any other in Redville Beach. It was scorching hot, so we’d broken one of the grills out and we’d have one of our chefs cooking up a fuck tonne of burgers and hot dogs all night.All of the patched members of the Valkyrie would attend as long as they weren’t on a job, and they all brought partners, relatives, people they were fucking, whatever it might be.Our parties were always popular, and more so when it was hot. As soon as the grill came out, half the town would turn up for a night of drink, drugs and sex. It was common knowledge what went down in my bar, but I had local law enforcement eating out of my hand, they wouldn’t touch us.It helped, of course, that a good few of the local cops were very good customers of mine. Our weed was very popular, even with the law
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Two
THE DUCHESSThe weather had turned out of the blue, so the party we’d planned to throw outside suddenly moved inside. Fortunately, the bar was big enough to pull it off.Between the Valkyrie, their special guests, locals and rival club members that liked to think they’re sneaky, Valhalla was absolutely heaving.Karma and I were leaning at the bar, sinking shot after shot. I grinned as I looked around my bar, taking in the sights of our ladies drinking, smoking, flirting, whatever they wanted to do. Everyone dressed up for our Friday night parties.Even I did. I didn’t dress up often, something about blood and grease means it’s quite tricky to wash out of clothes. I usually lived in jeans and a t-shirt, with my patched leather jacket over the top. Tonight, though… well. I’d found a little black dress in my wardrobe that I hadn’t worn for a while, and it looked awesome when paired with my heeled Timberlands. It was even a pair of boots that didn’t have blood and grease staining.The dr

THE DUCHESS“Duchess,” Blaze’s voice appeared behind me again.I turned on my bar stool, an unimpressed look on my face as I met Blaze’s eyes.“This is Speed, my second, and Blow, my third.”“Speed and Blow,” I chuckled. “Not sure I want to know where those names came from. Hopefully it’s nice to meet you both.” I motioned towards Karma. “This is Karma, my second.” She gave her best overly-cute smile. The one that if you knew her and what she’s capable of, made her seem even more psychotic than normal.“Now, as I said to your boss, none of you carry weapons on my premises if you don’t want to die, got it?”They all nodded quickly.“Good. Enjoy the party.” I watched them all turn and walk away, heading for an empty booth in the corner. Karma passed me a joint whilst I watched them intently. “I don’t like this, Karma. Something stinks.”“I agree, boss.”“I need them watched closely. We’ll get a handful of newbies on it. Pick whoever flirts well.”Karma nodded. “Once that’s done, Karma
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Four
THE DUCHESSI’d barely been back at the party long enough to light a joint when the roar of motorbikes pulling up outside disturbed my peace.I swore under my breath, rounding up Karma and Fishnet before heading out into the courtyard, gun in my right hand, joint in my left. The telltale sound of the safety being taken off a gun on either side of me told me that they were just as ready for a firefight as I was.“Wait a minute,” my voice was low. “I recognise that bike.”I stepped towards the leader of the group who had come a good ten metres closer than the rest of them; a tall gentleman, slim. Bright yellow stripes on his bike. Matching helmet. The London charter of the Henchmen.“Rogue, good to see you. I didn’t expect you to be in the area?”“Wasn’t planned, Duchess, I promise,” he replied, pulling his helmet off and giving me a smile that would have melted the pants off a lot of other women.“I hope you’re not here to try to get Blaze out of here, Rogue.”“Of course not. His shit
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Five
KARMA“That was unexpected,” Rogue’s voice sounded genuinely confused.At least that meant he didn’t already know about their history and tried to force the pair of them together for treaty purposes. If he did… well. I’d kill them both, unless the Duchess got there first.“Meh,” I replied. “If you knew them ten years ago, it wouldn’t really be surprising. How long has Ghost been with the Henchmen?”“He’s been patched for just over five years now.”“So he joined up not long after we moved back down here, then. The Valkyrie has been here for seven years. The Duchess somehow lasted a couple years back home before she had to leave because the sexism and general bullshittery was driving her batshit crazy.”“She definitely runs a unique outfit here,” Rogue replied mid-beer gulp.“I hope you don’t mean that in a negative light, Rogue.” I raised one eyebrow, an unimpressed look on my face.“Of course not, Karma,” he replied quickly, almost too quickly.I leaned towards him, my mouth ending up

The Valkyrie MC Chapter Twenty One
THE DUKEI knew my Duchess needed to do this and I even knew why she wasn’t taking me with her, but that didn’t mean I liked it. She’d been in the business long enough that knew what she was doing, so her decisions would always be perfect. I trusted her with my life, and in an MC world, it could quickly come to that, and there’s no bigger praise.I meant it when I said I’d do whatever she needed me to because this is her show, the Valkyrie is her baby, and if she needed me here, that is where I’d be.I was so lost in my own head that I didn’t really notice my Duchess had been pulling me along behind her until I heard a door lock and she pushed me up against it.Her arms wrapped around my neck, her hands in my hair, tugging me down and capturing my mouth in a passionate, deep kiss.She was fighting me for dominance, but I wasn’t going to let her win. THE DUCHESSHis left hand gripped my hair close to my scalp, and I gasped at the slight bite of pain that somehow left me even wetter. H
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Twenty
THE DUCHESSAfter his dance… we got dragged back down to the party, and then he immediately crashed afterwards, so he still owed me one. That, plus the fact I got woken up early by my phone ringing constantly with Tank freaking out meant I was in a horrifically bad mood when I sat down at the bar with a cup of coffee at 8am the next morning.I needed six cups of coffee before I could even think about dragging everyone into Ragnarök to talk about the upcoming hostile takeover.“Duchess,” Rogue nodded as he sat next to me with his own cup of coffee.“Morning. I noticed you had company last night, Rogue?” I smirked. I’d seen two newbies sneaking back out of the guest room he was staying in when I got up this morning.“I did indeed,” he grinned. “No Duke yet?”“Still in bed,” I grumbled.“Trouble in paradise, Duchess?”I rolled my eyes, but before I could talk, Duke’s hands appeared on my shoulders.“Morning, my Duchess,” he kissed my forehead.“Morning,” I grumbled.“Are you mad about la
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Nineteen
THE DUCHESS“Come along, my Duke,” I held out my hand once we got back to Valhalla. “Let’s go enjoy your party.”“Do we have to?” he pouted. “Can’t we just go to bed?” His hands slid around my waist, tugging me against him. “I’d rather take all your clothes off.”“Sorry babe, parties are tradition. Not only are we celebrating a run well done, but three new members patched today, and being one of those members… you’ve got to be there.”“Fine,” he sighed sarcastically, pouting, but I could see the smile in his eyes.“You’ll love it,” I winked. “We can have a few drinks, a joint or two, then fall into bed and stay there for the rest of the night.” I wrapped my arms around his neck, tiptoeing so I could whisper in his ear. “I promise it’ll be worth the wait.”I ran my tongue up the shell of his ear, enjoying the shiver that ran through him in response.He smirked, before bringing his lips down to meet mine in a deep, passionate and tongue-filled kiss that promised dirty things.“Are you s
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Eighteen
THE DUKEI’m not too proud to admit that I squealed like a schoolgirl when I saw the blue YZF-R1 parked out the front that matched the keys in my hand. Exactly the same as my Duchess’, just bright blue to her yellow.She'd even added a ‘Duke’ Valkyrie decal that matched the one on my cut. Stickler for the details, my girl.“Shall we go for a ride?” she asked, a smirk on her face. She knew she’d got this bike spot on.“Let’s do it, my Duchess,” I replied, pulling her into my arms for a kiss, spinning her around. Whilst I was distracted, Karma had brought the Duchess’ YZF around the front, parking it next to mine.“Come along then, Duke,” the Duchess grinned. “Are you going to stare in awe at me all day, or shall we go take your new bike for a spin?”I watched her swap her cut back for her full leather jacket, pull on her gloves and tuck her helmet under her arm. “Ready?” she asked with a grin when she noticed I'd not even moved.I nodded, turning to look for my helmet, before noticing

THE DUCHESSFortunately, the two of them left quickly, both with knowing smirks on their faces.I took Ghost’s hands, pulling him up to stand, and helping him slide his existing jacket down his arms. “Close your eyes,” I whispered, and when he did, I helped him pull the new jacket I’d ordered him on, before leading him towards a mirror.Once there, I faced him away from the mirror and stood at his side, before telling him to open his eyes. He looked over his shoulder to the mirror, and as soon as he did, the biggest smile appeared on his face at the sight of my wings, the Valkyrie wings, with ‘Duke’ across the middle on his jacket. A replica of mine.“It suits you,” I whispered. “My Duke,” I kissed his cheek. “What do you think?”He turned to face me, one of his hands tangling in my hair, tilting my head so he could crush his lips into mine. I leaned into the kiss, my eyes falling shut as tingles of pleasure ran through my body. His tongue teased my lips apart, before immediately delv
The Valkyrie MC Chapter Sixteen
THE DUCHESSFortunately, the trip back was easy and smooth sailing. No one needed to stop for fuel because they fucked up, and everyone even stopped for a piss before we left. They were just as eager to get back as I was.Once we were back, I pulled just Karma into Ragnarök, leaving Rogue and Ghost at the bar, and the rest of Valkyrie and the Henchmen drinking hard.“What do you think, K?” I asked, my voice quiet. I was well aware that this place wasn’t actually soundproofed. I should probably fix that…“What about?” she smirked.“You know what I mean. Ghost.”“Boss, the benefit of being the boss is that you can do whatever the fuck you want.” My face must have been sceptical. “Patching him won’t change anything, D. He can stand beside you without having to take over.”She sighed when she saw my face. “What is bugging you, boss?”I pulled a face. “We operate in an incredibly misogynistic world, K. I’ve had to do a lot and fight a lot to get to where I am. I don’t want to fuck up ever
