sayin.” I said with a laugh.
“Prez no one could influence you, unless you wanted them too. So are we going to talk about the elephant in the room? Or, are we going to continue to ignore it? We have to talk about her, if you can’t do it with me, then I might not be your best VP. ” He said with a sarcastic jab at me.
I sighed and answered him. “Rebecca, almost died for me a few times. Yes she is a federal agent, but there is something about her I can’t put my finger on. She would never hurt me or our club. After the attacks she cleared The Kings from any wrong doing and took the heat off for us. Whats the problem with having someone care about us that’s in the ATF? No matter what anyone thinks I love her, I will spend the rest of my life with her. There is no me any longer without her. Now, can we finish packing and get the fuck out of here?”
Blade said nothing, just simply nodded and handed me the joint again, with a quiet understanding, I think he finally understands me. I smiled at him, patted him on the back, and walked to my bike. As I was putting my helmet on I said. “Let’s roll within the hour. I’m heading home to pack a small bag.”
Blade gave me a thumbs up and went off to finish packing.
The long road home gave me plenty of time to think, could I live without Rebecca? Why would I want too?
I quickly pulled up in front of my house. Lucas was standing on the porch smoking a cigarette as I walked across the lawn.
“Use the walkway, we’re not heathens here. Mom would roll in her grave if she saw you on the grass.” Lucas said with a laugh.
I hastily flipped him the bird, as I was stepping up next to him. Punching him in the shoulder I quickly opened the door. I walked into my room and noticed my bag was already full on my bed. Hmmm, I guess Lucas packed my bag.
Lucas walked in, stood in the door, and said.
“I figured you were really busy with all the club business, and wouldn’t have time to pack.”
I nodded at him, smiled and said. “Thanks bro. Are you going to be ok driving the van? We have about a nine hour drive. Head over to the warehouse and help Blade pack up the pallets.”
Lucas nodded yes, and walked out.
I grabbed my bag, and headed out.
I started up my Harley, buckled my helmet, and headed to the clubhouse to meet the rest of the club. When I got there everyone except Blade was there, ready to go. I pulled out my phone and texted Blade.
Is Lucas there to help you yet?
Blade responded– Yep, we just finished loading the boxes into the van, he’s already on the highway. I’m heading to the clubhouse now.
Since I already had my cell out, I texted Rebecca one last time.
We’re heading out now. Love ya. Stay safe. Text me if you need me.
She quickly responded– Love you too, be careful.
I put my phone in my bikes traveling bag, turned to the guys and said, “As you already know, we’re heading to New Orleans because we were threatened. We can’t let this stand, if we do we will appear weak in the eyes of our enemies. I’ll be damned if we ever look fucking weak. We will deal with whatever comes, but it will be dealt with brutally and forcefully. Let’s head out.”
I got on my bike and did the rally signal, everyone started their engines and followed me out of the lot. Next stop New Orleans.
Chapter 13
*Rebecca*
Mia and I met up at bennigans, happy hour is just starting and I called the waitress over for our drink order. A short, large breasted, bubbly blonde that has seen the inside of a tanning bed too many times. She saunters her way over to us, after saying her flirtatious goodbyes to the table of guys next to her. When she gets to us she smiles, and said, “What can I get for y’all?”
I smiled and immediately said, “We’ll take a pitcher of moonshine Sangria. And the appetizer sampler platter please. Thank you.” I said as I handed her our menus.
She smiled broadly and said, “That was painless, I’ll have your orders right
