He’s quiet for a moment before he rasps, “Fuck…. If that’s not love, then I don’t know what is. Hundreds of letters…. Fuck.”

I chuckle a little. “Yeah…. I am sorry, though. I did want to try with you, I really did, it’s just….”

He finishes my sentence, “He’s your heart.”

“He is,” I reply.

He offers, “This isn’t goodbye, Ken. I still want to be your friend, even if you return to Texas. Plus, it’ll piss off your man.”

I chuckle at that, ignoring the “your man” bit. We talk for a few more minutes, and I promise to stay in touch. I hang up with a heavy heart.

In another life, he probably would have been mine, but with Lucas, no one can compare.

I look at my mantel, my gaze drifting to my daughter’s urn, and my heart hurts.

How can he ever forgive me for not telling him about her, not giving him a chance to say goodbye?

How can I forgive him for choosing Prue to protect me without speaking to me first?

How can we move past all the hurt and pain?

Doc – One Month Later

I tap my leg as Snake and Smokey argue about who will attend the meet-up with the Untamed brothers and their women. Neither want their old ladies to have any contact with the Untamed old ladies, because those women are insane—taking a brother’s bike and wrecking it was kind of crazy, but that didn’t top the women hiring gay male strippers at their clubs.

It got even crazier when a pregnant Violet got between Phil, his old man Cannon, and a stripper who took a liking in Phil.

Tats exploded….

I blink, unable to focus on them and their bickering. I can’t seem to focus on anything unless I’m at work. I still haven’t heard from Kennedy, and Prue is driving me nuts.

I went to my room here at the club last night to find her fingering herself on my fucking bed. Sniper had to hold me back from dragging the bitch out by her hair, but her words snapped Sniper into action, pulling me away as I got my knife out ready to slit her throat.

If this is how you’re going to treat your old lady, then baby, I need to do some emailing!”

I spent two hours in the ring with Tech. He’s struggling without Brook, who was attacked, and he went on a rampage to find the fucker who tried to assault her, while his ex, Nina, keeps trying to get his attention.

We both needed an outlet. My eyebrow is busted up, he has a split lip, and I’m ready for another round. Unless I’m at work or doing the books for the club, my mind goes haywire, question after question hitting me.

Did she end things with the guy?

Does she love him?

Is she really coming back?

"For fuck's sake,” Breaker snaps loudly, shutting the two up and snapping me out of my head as he states, “Quinn and I will go in support of our club; her job means she can't afford to fuck up. Ken will be home then, so she can watch Noah for the first week, and my parents the second. We'll need a check on Quinn to make sure the ride is safe for her."

Snake and Smokey sigh in relief while I raise a brow at Breaker’s comment. Quinn should be fine to ride now, so why would she need to be checked?

Wait, did he just say….

Tats grins and asks, "Not Lola?"

I stare at Breaker, willing him to confirm that he just admitted Kennedy is coming home.

The brothers chuckle, and he shakes his head, "No, definitely not Lola. I still don't know how they set six snakes loose in the common room. Noah was always scared of them."
