Chapter Twenty-Six
Zoey
As I was sitting in the kitchen Ella had come in looking a little tired “Good morning” I say, and she looks at me “sorry about leaving you with Blaze yesterday.”
“It was fine, he’s ok a bit moody, but pleasant sort of” I raise one of my eyebrows at her
“Blaze was pleasant sort of,” I ask, and she nods
“Yeah”
“Ok,” I lift my coffee cup up, and she looks at my hand
“Is that a” I nod, smiling holding out my hand
“Saint proposed this morning.”
“Oh my god, congratulations.”
“Thank you, you’re the first person I’ve told” she looks surprised
“Really,” I nod
“Yeah, I want to do it in person with the girls, so they're all coming for lunch, and I’m gonna tell them then.”
“Wow”
“When are you getting married?”
“I don’t know.”
“Now is the perfect time, it’s summer, what is your color scheme your favorite flower?”
“I don’t have any favorite flowers.”
“Color than.”
“I do love purple.”
“Oh, orchids are a wonderful flower they love humid conditions and last really well and with the days heating up.”
“What colors do they come in?”
“Oh, you can get orchids in every color of the rainbow varying shades from whites to pastels, they're a perfect wedding flower or maybe roses you could have them tinted to the color you want and they smell amazing, but the heat can affect them Oriental lilies are another great flower mixed in with some roses maybe they're great for a beach wedding but carnations make a wonderful bouquet you could have white with a pale pink maybe add in some succulents”
“You really love flowers, huh” she smiles
“I’m sorry, I do get carried away when it comes to flowers, it is a florist’s bread and butter” I smile
“Do you want to head downtown and have a look and see what they have” I ask her
“Really”
“Sure”
“Let’s go then,” she says getting up and it’s the first time in days I’ve seen a little life in her
We head out to my car when Saint calls out “Where are you going baby?” Saint asks me
“Ella and I are going into the florist in town to look at flowers”
“Flowers” I nod
“Ok,” he pulls me to him
“I love you,” he says making me smile
“I love you too” I tell him (with all my heart)
*
We get in my car and head downtown to the florist just off of main. As we pull up to the little store, Ella looks up, frowning “What’s wrong?” I ask her
“It’s a bit run down” I look up at the faded sign
“It does seem old doesn’t it”
“It could be so much more, look at the location on the corner of town the building itself is amazing it has to be at least one hundred years old, and look at the displays. Such a shame, maybe we should go somewhere else,” she says
“This is the only florist in town” I tell her and she looks at me
“Really,” I nod, looking up again at the sign, the peeling paint making me rethink going in
“I could order the flowers online, I know Lilly had hers brought in from Seattle”
“Let’s see what they’ve got first before we do that, they might surprise us” she says
“Ok” we both head into the store, yeah, it wasn’t that much better inside. The doorbell rings as we enter an elderly woman comes from out the back a walking stick in her hand and she smiles
“Good morning ladies, what can I do for you?” I step forward smiling
“Yes, I was just coming to see what flowers you have, I’m getting married and,”
“Ah, marriage such a wondrous thing to join a communion of two people, what flowers do you have in mind” I look at Ella and she steps forward
“We were thinking orchids”
“Orchids” the women, says smiling “such an amazing flower such a beautiful flower any other flowers you were thinking of”
“Maybe roses”
“In this heat, they wouldn’t last too long”
“What about carnation” I ask her
“Yes, carnations are a good choice”
“What would you recommend”
“That depends on the date, time of the day you get married, I know some people just think that you pick the flowers that you see in a magazine and that’s it, we put it together and you have a bouquet, but flowers are delicate things once you pick them or cut them, they start to die fast and the weather is it hot is it a morning wedding afternoon there are many factors that go into your bouquet”
“Well, I haven’t even set a date yet,” she smiles at me
“Well, I have a large choice of flowers to choose from would you like to look at my book and then when you decide on the day and time you come back and we’ll choose your flowers” I smile at her liking the woman a lot and I hold out my hand to her
“Zoey and this is Ella, she’s a florist to,” I tell her and the woman looks at her
“Is that right,” she says and Ella smiles
“You have an amazing store location, but…”
“I know, since my husband passed away a few years ago, it’s getting harder for me to work the shop”
“Do you not have any help” Ella asks her and she shakes her head
“No, it’s just me and Sammie” we both look at each other
“Sammie” I ask her and she smiles as a little pug dog comes walking around the counter and collapses at her feet
“Ladies meet Sammie” he lifts his head up for a second than dropping back down
“Well, let’s have a look and see what flowers you have” Ella says and we head over to a table and the woman brings out a large book and we sit going through the whole thing.

Saint
As I’m sitting at the bar Scythe comes walking in smiling “What the fuck are you smiling at?” I ask him
“It’s just a good day,” he says, and I look behind him but Widow’s nowhere
“Where’s Widow, hadn’t seen her for a few days.”
“Tied her to my bed,” he says, and I look at him again, not sure if I heard him right
“You what?”
“Tied her to my bed,” he repeats, and I frown at him
“You tied Widow to your bed,” I ask, and he nods
“How long have you kept her up there?” he smiles
“Couple of days.”
“You’ve had her tied to your bed for a few days.”
“Yep”
“Are you gonna let her go?”
“Yeah, when she agrees to have another kid” I stare at him for a minute
“Ok, let me get this straight, you tied your wife to the bed until she agrees to have another kid with you”
“Yep” he says, smiling and I shake my head
“Dude, you two have the weirdest relationship” I tell him and he smiles laughing
“With that bitch, I have to be drastic” he says smiling
“No fuckin’ shit, where you at least fuckin’ her while she was tied to the bed”
“How else was I gonna put a kid in her”
“Damn, have you let her go yet cause if you have man tell me so I can at least get out of here if she comes down shooting”
“She won’t do shit, the fuckin’ bitch loves me”
“I can see that with the big black eye”
“It was a love tap” I roll my eyes at him shaking my head
“Like I said weird” the door to the clubhouse opens and all the girls come walking in
“Hello ladies” I say as I turn and face them
“Saint Scythe” they all say
“Where�
��s Zoey? She says she has something to show us?” Niya asks and I smile
“She should be back soon”
“Oh, did she go out” I nod my head
“Yeah her and Ella headed out, but they’ll be back soon” I tell them
“Oh, ok well, we’ll go in and start some lunch”
“Ok,” they all walk past us and Scythe looks at me
“What’s Zoey showin’ them?” he asks me
“Could be her Property jacket or the diamond on her finger,” he looks at me surprised
“You proposed to Zoey?” he asks and I nod, smiling (fuck I can’t stop smiling)
“Damn, so when’s the bucks’ night?” he asks smiling
*
Zoey comes in about five minutes later walking over and sitting on my lap “Hey beautiful” I say lifting her hand and kissing her ring and she smiles
“When are you thinking we should get married?” she asks and I sit back looking at her
“Do you have a date in mind” I ask and she shakes her head
“I just….”
“Baby, I don’t give a fuck when we do it as long as it’s soon.”
“Soon”
“Yeah”
“Like how soon?” I smile pulling her to me
“How about two weeks.”
“Two weeks.” I lick her neck, sucking and nipping her reaching up and running my thumb over her pert little nipple and she moans
“Yeah, two weeks.” She looks at me with a sultry look making my dick hard “God I wanna fuck you again.” I slide my hand under her shirt, pulling her bra down and releasing her tit. Her nipples are hard as fuck, and I move her, so she’s straddling my waist lifting her shirt and sucking on her gorgeous little bud, her arms holding my head to her
“Saint” she moans grinding her pussy on my dick” I pull hard on her nipple, and she moans louder
“Oh, fuck yeah this is hot” Cookie says, and I pull Zoey’s shirt down so the fuckhead can’t see her tits, Zoey puts her head in the crook of my neck, embarrassed and I look at Cookie who’s sitting on the arm of the sofa with a beer in his hand
“Fuck off,” I tell him
“What?” he says, smiling and I pick Zoey up and carry her upstairs, and I can feel her giggling
“What’s so funny?”
“That was so embarrassing,” she says chuckling
“Fuck him,” I tell her and she laughs
“No fuck me,” she says, and I smile as I carry her to our room
“Your wish is my command gorgeous.”
Chapter Twenty-Seven
Zoey
I watch as Saint and Mia head into Razor’s office “I wonder what that was about?”
“No idea” I say still staring at the door
“Satin, I like that idea it sounds amazing and your coloring would make you stand out even more” Niya says and I turn to her
“You think”
“Definitely, I think Mia might be right, we could look around for designs and maybe she might make it for you” I nod looking back at the door
“She did seem enthusiastic about it”
“A florist and a designer this wedding is going to be amazing” Abbey says and I smile
“Come on, let’s see how big of a marquee we need” Lena says and we all follow her outside to the back
*
After we came back in Saint and the boys were in the meeting room so we all went back into the kitchen “The large marquee will be enough plus we could have it attached to the clubhouse to the caterer can come and go from the kitchen” Maggie says I sit wondering what Mia wanted with the club and hope that no trouble comes from her visit, we’ve already lost so much. When we work out all of the details for the wedding we all head into the main room
“The guys are still in their meeting” Tink says and we all look at the door
“God, I hope everything is alright”
“I hope so too” Steven comes walking in with all the kids in tow and they run over to us
“Mom we had ice-cream and candy and soda and popcorn and even candy apples” we all look up at Steven, the kids on a sugar high
“What? You said make sure their feed and looked after,” he says smiling
“So, you feed them sweets” Tink asks as the triplets bounce up and down on her
“Hello, there was a fruit in there”
“You idiot there gonna be up for hours,” she says and he smiles
“Not my problem,” he says, walking off and I know he done it so he doesn’t have to watch them ever again, Lilly Tink Niya and Widow will never trust him again
The triplets run-up, “Mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom” they say over and over Tink narrowing her eyes at Steven
“I’m taking these three, home, congrats Zoey I’ll see you all later,” she says and I watch as Tink walks out with the three kids trying to climb up her like a tree
“Right I’m taking these two home, I’ll see you all later, congrats Zoey” Lilly says, picking up a squirming Willow and Junior starts whining because he can’t stay and play. Niya and I sit there as Logan and Mason running around
“Go outside and play both of you” Niya says as the boys start to pretend to fight, they run off through the door and Niya picks up one of the magazines “So what style of dress do you want?” she asks me
“I have no idea, I’ve never looked at wedding dresses before” I tell her and she smiles
“Well, you have a great body so do you want form fitting big princess puffy gypsy wedding style” Abbey asks me
“Gypsy wedding” I say making Niya smile
“I love that show” Abbey says making me roll my eyes at her
“No gypsy wedding styles, form-fitting sounds nice.”
“Yeah, you have the body for it” Lena says
“Ella what do you think?” Ella looks surprised that I asked
“Um, I’m not sure”
“Well, let’s go through the magazines, anything sticks out tell us” I tell her and we go through the magazines Abbey and Lena go online and have a look as well
“Oh, I like this one” Abbey says, turning her phone around, we all look at it but I shake my head
“No”
“What about this one” Lena says
“To fluffy”
“Ok, do you want vintage modern backless mermaid lace classic” Abbey says
“Classic sounds nice, what site is that?” I ask her
“Pinterest” I pull my phone and type in wedding gowns, were all sitting on our phones when the guys come out and we all look up. Tank Saint and Colt coming over
“Is everything ok?” Niya asks Colt
“Yeah baby, let’s get home”
“Lena Abbey come on” Tank says and Niya leans over hugging me
“We’ll talk tomorrow,” she says
“Ok, I’ll see you all later” Widow and Scythe come over
“Hey, where’s Mason?” she asks
“Outside trying to work off a sugar rush” I tell her and she frowns
“A sugar rush” I nod
“Yeah, you can thank Steven for that”

Saint
Walking into Razor’s office again, he looks up at Mia “Who’s this?” he asks staring at Mia
“This is Mia boss, Maria’s niece” he looks at her again
“I know I look nothing like her,” she says and Razor smiles
“So, what can I do for you Maria’s niece?” I motion for her to sit and I stand behind her and she looks at me
“Just tell him what you told me” Mia proceeds to tell Razor about a Devils Solider collecting protection money and not just from Maria but most of her block probably more Razor sits forward looking at Mia
“So, you’re telling me that a guy dressed like one of my boys comes to your Aunt's shop every month and collects protection money” Mia nods
“Yes, and now the payments are so high there up to a thousand dollars a week and my Aunt c
an’t afford that anymore”
“Darlin’ I hate to tell you this, but my club does not collect from the town folk, we don’t do protection at all” Mia frowns at him
“Then who is it?”
“Well, if he’s wearing a Cut of ours, we’ll find out, do me a favor don’t say anything to anyone, tell your Aunt we’ll sort this shit out you got it” she nods her head standing but looks back at Razor
“It’s really not the club,” she asks, and Razor shakes his head
“No darlin, it’s not”
“Ok, thank you for seeing me.”
“No darlin’ thank you” I show Mia out as Razor pulls his phone out, as I walk back in Razor’s standing at his door
“Church,” he says, and I walk in taking my usual seat and wait for all the guys to show up, One by one they all pile into the meeting room
“So, what’s this about? I was in the middle of a stock take” Tiny says, and we all look at Razor
“Seems we have someone extorting the town's shopkeepers pretending to be one of us” everyone looks around
“What the fuck are you talking about?” Stryker asks him
“Maria’s niece came to see Saint today, asking if we’d go easy on her Aunt, seeing that we know her and all and that our monthly protection payments were getting too much for Maria to keep up with”
“So, you're saying someone is pretending to be a Devil,” Oki asks
“Yep, jacket and all,” I say, and they all look at me
“Who the fuck would have one of our jackets?”
“That’s something we are going to find out, any of you missing a jacket” he asks us
“Boss where all wearing our jackets” Cuff says to him
“That’s the point fuckhead, whoever this is has stolen one”
“From who?” Cookie asks
“I want this motherfucker found, Mia said the guy collects at the end of the month, which is in three weeks, I want someone at her shop that week all week just encase this fucker comes early”
“I’ll do it” Cookie says and I shake my head at him
“You fuckin’ would”
“Come on, did you see her man, damn, I’ll take one for the team and hang out with her”
“No” Razor tells him
“Why not?” he whines like a bitch
“Because you’re too interested in getting your dick wet than workin’, Widow I think it should be you they won’t suspect a woman” she nods
