I called up my lawyer and given my priors, the likelihood I’d be awarded full custody was slim to none. My lawyer was straight up with me, said it’s ‘cause I don’t look like a changed man and when it comes to the eyes of the court, I need to show I’ve changed. Now, the only thing I’ve been convicted of is assault, on multiple counts, but it’s what happens to idiots who mess with my brothers. I heard my lawyer loud and clear, though, so I had a brilliant idea. I’ll get married. I’ll show them I’m a changed man.
Our marriage was supposed to be for show, so I could get my son back, but it turned into something else. Now I’m faced with telling this woman I want her in a legitimate way when all we’ve been doing is playing pretend. I’ve never been the type to put my heart out on the line, but I see the way she is with my son, and now I never want her out of my life. I only hope she has the same feelings.
K-9’s Fight
She wasn’t mine to love, but I do.
K-9
My brother died years ago and left behind a woman, Annabel. No one knows the feelings I have for her. I’ve had them for years, even when my brother was alive, but she was his woman and I’d never overstep. I’d be crossing a line, a line I wouldn’t be able to come back from.
Now years have passed, and I find out she’s moving without even telling me.
She gave birth to my brother’s child and I hate her. I hate her so much. I loathe her very existence.
I’m torn between destroying everything dear to her and trapping her in my arms.
Only, while I try to figure everything out with Annabel, things with the club have never been more dangerous and threats are coming from every corner.
Keeping Reaper
Reaper
Being the Prez of the Satan’s Keepers MC has its perks. Women throwing themselves at you happen to be one of them. I usually have a steady flock of ladies I can choose from, but one night at the bar, there’s a sassy woman who stands out more than the rest. Suddenly, no one else matters.
She’s hot, spirited, and has a bangin’ body.
It’s a one-night stand and that’s all I think it is until I find out where she works. Suddenly my one-night stand becomes someone I’ll be seeing on more than one occasion.
Ivy has a hard time swallowing that pill, but she’ll get used to it. If she doesn’t, I’ll just have to do whatever it takes to change her mind.
Ensnared
Forced to marry a traitor’s daughter, I’ll shed blood to make sure it doesn’t happen.
Marc
As a child, I was put on a silver platter, and my parents were presented with marriage opportunities. Many other mafiosos were trying to secure their daughter’s hand in marriage to me, a cousin of the Irish Boss. Eventually, they accepted one. The only problem is, I’ve never intended on being with one woman. It’s never been something I’ve been interested in.
Sure, I’ve seen the way those close to me have found happiness, but it isn’t for me.
I’m dead set on not being tied down, even if the woman of my dreams comes out from the shadows when I least expect it. She may be beautiful in every way, but she’s not meant to be mine.
I only question my reasoning the moment darkness comes forth and we find ourselves forced together.
Can I allow this woman to ensnare my heart and soul, or do I fight against it and push her away?
Cedric’s Ecstasy
I found her beaten, broken, and abused . . . and I want her.
Cedric
She was bleeding out behind a dumpster and somehow, for some reason, fate must’ve wanted me to find her before it was too late. Even though blood was covering her face, I could see past the grime, see the beauty lying underneath. I didn’t know anything about Arwen, but one thing I did know is that what was done to her was unacceptable.
I did the only thing I could. I took her to Finley and told her we’d have no choice but to protect her. I think Finley knew back then something was different about Arwen and the way I looked at her, but none of us had any clue what was coming our way.
We had no idea about the war coming or that our own would be hurt while keeping Arwen safe.
We didn’t have a clue, and I sure as fuck didn’t have any idea how hard I’d fall for her.
Viking
She was mine before she even knew it.
Viking
I claimed her the day she turned eighteen. I knew the second I saw her, I wanted Fawn to be mine, so I laid down the law and ensured any brother, near or far, would never even glance in her direction.
She’s been running from me for long enough, but now it’s time to take what’s mine. She’s not a teenager anymore, but instead, she’s a woman. A woman who’s experienced life, who partied in college, traveled, not to mention many other things. I’ve given her space to grow, and now it’s time she comes home.
Still, Fawn wants to run. She wants to get far away from the club life, but as a creep comes out of the woodwork and starts stalking her, she turns to me for help.
I’ll do anything for her, even if she tries to keep running. With any luck through this, she’ll realize she’s only meant to be one place—by my side.
Spiral into Chaos
Bane
When she was shot, I knew what I needed to do.
It was months ago and I’m still seeking revenge for Emery. I don’t know why I am in the first place. She’s arrogant, sassy, and always thinks she’s right. Everything about her aggravates me, even the fact she’s doing a job I think only men should.
Yet, why the hell do I even give a damn about her?
I’m still trying to figure out the answer, but I know I want her, even if I can’t stand her. Watching her blood spill on the ground was unlike any other shooting I’ve witnessed.
I’ll find the people responsible for this, one way or another.
