“Don’t make me put you in a headlock, brother,” I threaten, and he snorts, looking my way again, a glint in his light green eyes.
“You may be psycho especially when you lose your tempter and beat the shit out of assholes who start on Ivy but my temper is worse than yours and we both know it,” he states, and I grin wide because the fucker is not wrong.
Ivy is Venom’s sister, who is also the best friend a guy could ever ask for.
She’s my little cupcake…
Along with Viper, the club's future Sergeant-at-Arms, making his dad Eagle proud, we all grew up together. We’re a tight-knit family, and we’d do anything for each other, including going to Juvie.
Fury knows this.
“Right, I am off,” my sister says, snapping me out of my head and I look at her in time to see Ivy holding her tightly. I smile sadly before our eyes connect, her blue ones shining with unshed tears, just like Mama’s.
Mama sniffles, puts her blonde curly hair behind her ear, and kisses her head as Ivy steps aside before Dad pulls her into him tightly. She whispers something to him, and he tenses but nods and I know she’s just warned him to keep it in his pants, making me chuckle slightly.
Marie finally looks my way, and I tilt my head. Her tears fall as I open my arms for her. And without a second thought she walks over to me with quick steps before stepping into my arms and I hug her tightly.
“Make sure he doesn’t hurt her again, Jax,” she whispers, and I mutter, “I’ll try, big sister. Don’t go falling in love and staying over there.”
She giggles and she pulls back as she wipes her wet cheeks before kissing mine, and I swallow back the emotion, knowing things are not going to be the same without her riding my ass to keep me out of trouble.
She moves to my right and hugs Fury, Venom, and then Viper before she pulls back and looks at all four of us with pride and a-fucking-gain I swallow the emotion that wants to fall.
“Tell Blade I’m proud of him,” she orders, “and he will make an amazing president when he comes home.”
We all nod and she turns taking her bag from Dad before looking at us one more time, taking us in with our prospect cuts on knowing next time she sees us we’ll be brothers and fuck me, my eyes tear up.
Giving me a soft smile, she walks past us toward the door and Venom mutters, “Fuck I’m going to miss her nosy ass.”
I chuckle but nod in agreement. My sister has a large, happy personality, and her absence will be noticed by all.
Mama grabs two more of Marie's bags off the floor and follows her out while Dad stays behind, knowing she wants a few more minutes with her daughter and Ivy bounces over to us. I lift my left arm, where she nuzzles into me, smiling with unshed tears in her eyes.
I smile sadly at her and confirm, “She’ll call you when she lands, cupcake,” and she nods, laying her head on my chest before Viper groans.
I look at him to see his eyes near the bar and follow his gaze. Disappointment fills me as Cherri, a clubwhore who trapped Randy, an amazing guy who works at Dark Angels Motors, thinking he was a prospect, walks over to my father, biting her red cherry lip.
The whore has nothing to do with her daughter, fuck, none of us brothers actually know what she looks like. Randy decided to home school her knowing how hurtful kids can be and right now, her biological mother has her sights set on my fucking father while my mother is out of sight, the same bitch he fucked a few months ago hurting my mother when Cherri gloated.
Great.
“Your dad is a fucking idiot,” Venom mumbles from beside me and I nod knowing he is right.
Dad knows Mama won’t be outside for long and yet he’s playing with fire because as soon as Cherri is close by, he gently rubs his finger along the top of her tits with a sly grin and it takes fucking everything in me not to punch him.
He and the older generation are the reason why I’ll never fucking settle down. They’ve done nothing but show us younger generation that fidelity is non-existent.
My phone beeps, gaining my attention from the show he’s currently giving everyone, proving that brothers just can’t be faithful, and I grab my phone.
Mama – Come outside for a moment, just you xx.
I frown and mutter, “I’ll be right back.”
I kiss Ivy’s head and gently move her over to her brother Venom, who quickly wraps his arms around her, squeezing tight, making her giggle and I walk towards the exit and out of the clubhouse, which sits on a large patch of land where the garage is based, as well as several houses that the club officers built.
Mine is currently under construction along with Blades even though he’s in Juvie, though the last time I spoke to him to discuss the interior he’ll want he gloated about getting a blowy every night from the correctional officer. So basically, he’s having a sex filled vacation which is why I tell Fury not to feel guilty.
“Mama?” I question, and she looks my way with tears in her eyes, her car door open, and I frown.
