Fury said it was love at first sight for Skylar. He mentioned the look she had reminded him of a mother looking at her child and my heart fucking broke for him because he knew he made a mistake not allowing her to be involved from the get-go. As soon as Tate started crying after her shots and he couldn’t calm her down, Skylar stepped in and took her from him causing the little princess to calm instantly. Though I don’t know how Tate has such a strong bond with her now, she only sees the girl in passing.
“Tate isn’t why she won’t give you a chance brother,” I state as I look at him and as we lock eyes. I remind him, “You started your relationship on a lie for her biological father, so in her eyes, your feelings weren’t true, and the trust is broken. You need to earn her trust back…”
He looks towards his girls, and I do the same. I know he sees that I’m right about how lovingly Skylar is looking at his little girl, cradling her in her arms.
We stop before them as Tate whispers, “When is our next play date?” and Fury and I look at each other in confusion.
“What does she mean by next play date?” Fury demands, but Skylar ignores him and asks Tate softly, “Have you been a good girl?”
Tate nods frantically, and Skylar grins, a grin much like Blade’s…
“Have you spoken to Ivy?” I ask, looking at Raya, whose head whips my way. Her icy blue eyes are wide with shock, and I raise a brow at her.
She clears her throat and admits, “I did this morning. She’s uh, she’s working right now. "
I hum and nod, but am not happy with her answer. Every time I have seen this woman, she has said the same thing and honestly it is beginning to piss me off.
“Did you f-u-c-k Misty?” Skylar suddenly asks, and this time, Fury and I look at her with shock.
How in the hell would she know that?
I side-eye Raya, but she doesn’t have an ounce of guilt radiating from her, meaning the information must have come from Ives.
“No, I didn’t,” I admit, looking back at Skylar, who narrows her dark blue eyes, but I ignore the look and state, “She didn’t give me a chance to explain, she ran out before I could even see her in the common room.”
Skylar tilts her head, and a look I have seen on Blade several times crosses her face before she says, “And yet you told her you two can’t be together.”
I narrow my eyes at the woman.
Years she has had nothing to do with the club, or so we thought, and now she’s butting in.
“I only said that because she wanted to move to New York,” I say, and watch her to see how she reacts.
Is she friends with Ivy?
Fuck Blade will be pissed if she is, and Ivy hasn’t said anything. And don’t get me started on the man beside me, who I can feel vibrating with anger.
“Only because she doesn’t want to see you screwing other women,” she confirms my thoughts and my mouth drops.
“You’re friends with Ivy,” I accuse, and she shrugs and gently kisses Tate's palms.
“Ivy, Sky, and I have been friends for a long time,” Raya confesses, then adds, “We’re also close to Lake.”
“Randy’s girl?” Fury asks in shock and Raya nods then looks at me with a little bit of pity and says, “She loves you Psycho but what you did hurt her, and I get it, you did it for her but if you truly love her, I am begging you, fight for her, stop what is about to happen.”
Skylar nods in agreement, and I furrow my brows as I look between them.
What the fuck do they know that I don’t?
I open my mouth, but before I can question the fear that they’re both showing a bike grabs all our attention, and Raya bites her bottom lip, noticing Venom.
I smirk as Fury rubs his mouth to hide his grin, while Skylar laughs openly which causes Raya to take Tate, who goes willingly…
What the fuck?
“Since when did my daughter get close with Raya?” Fury questions quietly and I shake my head because fuck, I don’t know and I mutter, “Probably the same time she got close with Skylar I’m guessing,” I side eye him, “Did you not ever wonder how Tate became obsessed with Skylar when she won’t speak to you?”
He frowns, looking between the three of them. They all ignore us, watching Venom speed down the road before skidding near us, causing Tate to giggle.
