Tripping Nitro (Charon MC, #6)

by Khloe Wren

  “Just let me put my leggings on.”

  “And I gotta just clean up this stuff. Give us ten.”

  I followed Eagle and Raven toward the front of the shop where Eagle started pointing out various tattoos to his son while we waited on the women. Finally, they came out, ready to go. There were three other artists working in the shop so we didn’t need to lock up or anything.

  “Gabs! I’m heading out for a bit. I should be back by my next appointment.”

  “Easy done. Say congrats for us.”

  Grabbing Cin’s hand in mine, we pushed our way out of the door and into the perfect Texan spring day. The hospital wasn’t far so we all headed up the street on foot.

  “Did you notice the eye and hair color?”

  I gave her hand a squeeze before I released it and wrapped my arm around her shoulder as she wrapped hers around my waist.

  “Yeah, babe. I caught the color choices. It’s cute. I love it and I can’t wait to have a closer look after we get home.”

  Yep, I intended to have a very close look at every inch of her when we got home later. I fucking loved that she got a tatt that represented us on her. Made me want to do something similar. Maybe I’d have a chat with Silk later and see what she could come up with for me.

  “So you two planning to join the Charon baby boom any time soon?”

  Silk’s question had my heart skipping a beat. I’d love nothing more than to join the baby boom, but it looked like things weren’t going to go as smoothly for us as they had for the other couples in the club.

  “We’re working on it. No news yet, though.”

  I rubbed my palm up and down Cin’s arm as she stayed quiet. Our lives had been a crazy whirlwind these past few weeks, but even despite the chaos, I knew the fact she hadn’t fallen pregnant as easily as the other women was weighing on her.

  “Ah well, still early days for you two. It’s nice to have a little bit of time as a couple before you go throwing a kid into the mix, anyhow. Enjoy it while you can. And if you ever feel the burning desire to not sleep all night or get spit up on, just yell out and we’ll loan you scamp here until you get over it.”

  Silk elbowed Eagle and gave him a glare that would have taken down a lesser man.

  “What, babe? You know I love Raven, I’m just fooling around.”

  I walked a little slower, letting the other couple get ahead of us as we reached the hospital.

  “You okay, Cin?”

  She smiled up at me. “Yeah, and Eagle’s right. We need to get ourselves sorted before adding a baby to the mix but I’d kind of talked myself into it. You know?”

  I leaned down and kissed her temple. “I know exactly what you mean. Did the same thing myself, and you’ll see, we’ll have our own family before you know it. Once the shop is opened and there’s less stress in our lives, things will happen as they’re meant to. I can feel it in my bones.”

  I gave her a wink and pulled a stupid face at her and she gave me the chuckle I was looking for.

  “And in the meantime we have your brothers’ babies to cuddle and spoil.”

  “Damn straight.”

  We walked into the waiting room of the hospital and could barely hear ourselves think over the noise. Looked like the entire club had come straight in to meet our newest member. Keeping Cin locked to my side, I glanced around the room at all the happy, smiling faces and realized that this was my whole world right here. My family. Every single person in this room was part of the Charon MC and I was so fucking blessed to be able to claim each and every one of them.

  The End.
