“Anything you need help with?” I ask. If he’s in any trouble, I will be glad to help him out.
“No, I’m not in danger or anything. I just have to tell my boss I’m leaving, as well as some regular clients, pack up my house. Shit like that,” he says.
“If you need help with anything, I will be there for you, brother. I’ve got your back,” I say.
He looks at me for a moment before nodding his head. “I know. I’ll be back before you know it. Maybe by then you will finally convince my best friend to stay here too,” he says with a laugh.
I smile and shake my head. “I plan on doing everything I can to get her to stay.”
“You know, I thought it would take a strong fucker to stand by Dani. Most of the losers that wanted her seemed too scared of me to even try. There were also a couple who tried to form a wedge between us, but she was always like a sister to me. No one will come between us,” he says in a serious tone. I take the warning for what it is. They don’t have to worry about that with me. I don’t feel threatened that they are best friends.
Fuck, it makes it easier they see each other as brother and sister because I hope to make that a reality one day.
I know I am getting ahead of myself, but I already know Dani is it for me. I plan on having her by my side for a very long time.
Chapter Seven
Dani
One week later…
Zeke is leaving today, and everyone is already sad. They have been trying to convince him to stay, but he had already told me he wants to wrap up his life before moving here. He said he was moving here, but he’s got to pack, and find a job and place to live here. I know there is nothing keeping him in the city he lives in.
He’s a tattoo artist and can easily find a job like that here. I know the brothers were talking about opening a place here, so they have already tried to talk Zeke into it. Zeke doesn’t want to say anything until he’s back, so I was sworn to secrecy.
Things have been running smoothly with everything else.
Getting to know my father has been great. He was happy that my mother had planned to stay, though I don’t think she needed much convincing. She did say she would have to leave to pack up her apartment.
I don’t need to worry. I know that Olivia already said she would take care of that stuff for me if I wanted to stay. I would just have to let her know.
The more time I spend with Zane, the more I want to stay. There have been a lot of kisses between us, but nothing further.
So far, that has gotten pretty frustrating. I want him more than I have ever wanted anything.
Every time we are together in the main room or kitchen, Lydia is there glaring at us. I haven’t spoken to her, but Zane told me that they were fucking for a while before he ended it.
They were recent. I hate to think of him with her, but I can’t hold it against him. He didn’t know me back then.
He told me as soon as he met me that he had ended it, which surprises me but also makes me feel like he’s actually serious about this thing between us.
Zane and his parents take Zeke to the airport. I stay back while everyone heads to work. The clubhouse is usually quiet at this time of day.
That’s when Lydia decides to make her appearance.
“Finally, all alone without your body guards around,” she sneers at me.
I shake my head. “What do you want?”
“I want you to get your hands off of my man. Rage is my man,” she growls out.
“He broke things off with you,” I tell her.
“He’s going to kick you to the curb after I have a little talk with him,” she states.
I raise an eyebrow at her. “Why on earth would he do that?”
She places a hand on her stomach, and it dawns on me what she is planning on telling him.
