  “No lip. Ain’t gotta choice.”

  “The fuck we don’t!” Kelsea cried.

  Z raised his brows and swung his head toward her, laying down the law. “Church or nothin’. Got me?”

  “What the fuck,” Kelsea muttered. “We’re not having our meetings here anymore.”

  Di sort of agreed with Kelsea. It was difficult to have their meetings at the bakery now when it always seemed that Z was around. Instead of working in any of the other club businesses, he decided he’d help “manage” the bakery, which, to him, pretty much meant he got to boss his wife and Bella around and sometimes do paperwork.

  But really, Diamond thought the reason he wanted to “work” in the bakery was to keep an eye on and protect his pregnant wife.

  Sophie cupped her man’s cheek as she grinned up at him. “Then you men have to promise to stay out and we can have male strippers come in.”

  His blue eyes swung back down to his wife. “What?”

  “You heard me,” Sophie murmured, her grin widening to a smile.

  His eyebrows hit the top of his head. “Strippers?”

  Di tried not to laugh at the way he spit that word out of his mouth.

  “Yeah, you know, like the ones that are always at all the club parties, except these have dicks instead of tits,” Kelsea said, crossing her arms over her chest. “Shouldn’t have a problem with that, right? With equality and all that.”

  Z’s eyebrows dropped low and his expression turned dark and stormy. “Equality? Have you lost your fuckin’ mind?”

  “Nope. Time for this club to come into the twenty-first century. We’re demanding equality,” Kelsea declared as she stomped her foot. Ah, there it was.

  Z snorted, dropped his head to stare at his boots and shook it. “Brain musta got scrambled,” he muttered to the floor. He raised his gaze to his wife. “You ain’t goin’ nowhere with my kid in your belly, got me?”

  Sophie pinned her lips together as she patted his chest reassuringly. “First off, I’m not going out dancing in this condition.”

  “In any condition,” he corrected her in a mutter.

  “And your concern with our safety is duly noted.”

  “Reason for it.”

  “Right. I get it, baby,” she whispered. She glanced toward the rest of the women. “But it’s Di’s thirtieth birthday and we are going to celebrate it, whether you like it or not.”

  “That so?”

  “Yep, that’s so,” Sophie repeated with a nod.

  Di rolled her lips under in an attempt not to beam at Sophie’s control over her husband. As club president and badass biker, he wasn’t normally willing to bend for a woman, but Sophie had him wrapped around her little finger. And right now she was wiggling that powerful pinky.

  The rest of the women were pretending not to notice Sophie’s control over her old man. Di eyeballed Kelsea, hoping the younger woman kept her trap shut and didn’t blow it for them.

  Kelsea’s eyes slid to hers and she bugged them out in a silent message. Di gave her a slight nod.

  Zak finally sighed. “Gonna get Hawk to close down The Iron Horse an’ get Dawg to book you some male strippers. Ain’t gonna let any of the brothers over there to bother you. Drink, dance, eyeball some strange dick, have fun. Still safe. Got me?”

  “Got you,” Sophie whispered, her eyes sparkling.

  “Invite Dawg’s girls.”

  “No,” she said firmly with a shake of her head.

  His eyebrows furrowed. “The sweet butts.”

  “No.”

  “The Knights’ ol’ ladies,” he muttered finally.

  “Fine.”

  “Gonna set the prospects out front to guard the door. Keep an eye out for trouble.”

  “Fine. As long as they don’t come in.”

  His nostrils flared. “Whatever,” he muttered, pressed a kiss to her forehead and moved back in the direction he had come from. No one said a word until the door to the back kitchen swung shut. Then they even waited a few more seconds until they knew he was out of hearing range.

  Then they all looked at each other and beamed. Di rushed up to Sophie and gave her a high five. “Good job.”

  “Now, I just hope I don’t pop until after the party. I want to see the results of my negotiations.”

  “Strange dick?” Ivy asked, quoting Z.

  “Hell yes!” Kelsea crowed.

  Ivy snorted. “Dawg should have connections to find a hot traveling troupe of male strippers on short notice.”

  “Up to him, he may find the ugliest ones.”

  “I’ll call him and make sure he doesn’t,” Jewel assured Kelsea. “And I’ll make sure there’s a lot of them. One for each of us.”

  “Oh, brother. You know Z was only the first obstacle. Some of us will have one of our very own,” Kiki said.

  “Like Hawk?” Jewel asked.

  “Mmm. And remember that big, serious, overly protective brother of his?” Kiki asked her with an arched brow.

  “How can I forget?” Diesel’s ol’ lady answered with a frown.

  “Right.”

  “Bah,” Jewel answered, waving a dismissing hand. “They’ll all get over it.”

  Di was suddenly glad she didn’t have to worry about a possessive man like most of them did. She was free to enjoy her birthday and hot, naked men as much as she wanted.

  And she was going to make sure she took full advantage of her birthday celebration. Maybe she’d even be able to talk one of the strippers into a private dance. At her place. With both of them totally naked. And horizontal.

  No batteries required.

  Yeah, that sounded like a great idea.

  She couldn’t wait.
