“No one will ever hurt you again, momma. I promise.” Tears swell in my eyes, but I blink them back.

‘C’mon Bear-Bear. We’ve got to get out of here before the cops come.” Mom’s gentle voice sooths me back from the edge.

“Where are we going to go?” I look down at the body of the man who hurt my mom. His lifeless eyes stare back at me and realization hits me. I just killed a man.

“We’ll figure it out, Bear-Bear but we can’t stay here.”

This is where my life as a no good, trouble maker ends and I find meaning, loyalty and freedom.

Chapter 1

Aftermath

10 years later

The click of the pool balls filter through the room as I sit at the scarred table playing cards with Torch, Derange, Blayze and Aero. Aero is the newest member of the Royal Bastards, LA Chapter, but I don’t think he’ll be staying here very long. He’s a natural born leader and deserves his own Chapter. He came to us under the direction of Jameson, our National Chapter’s President and the one who’s solely in charge of all our Chapters, as a nomad looking to settle down. But that’s his story to tell, not mine.

“Royal Flush, bitches!” Torch grins from ear to ear as he lays his cards flat on the table. Groaning and grumbling erupt from all of us as Torch collects his chips.

“Fuck, I’m out.” Derange says as Jezebelle, his Ol’ Lady comes strutting into the room. His eyes follow her as she makes her way to the pool table in a pair of tight leather pants, six inch fuck me heals, and a silky white top that hangs off one shoulder. Her long red, curly hair is hanging loosely down her back.

“We’ve lost him.” Aero snaps his fingers in front of Derange’s face but Derange ignores him.

I’ve been avoiding looking that way all night but I can’t help it. A sultry laugh echoes through the Clubhouse when the one woman who’s driving me batshit crazy finds something funny. Kensi. Her long brown hair with blonde highlights shakes with her laughter and her unique eyes always capture my attention.

Fuck. This is why I didn’t want to be here. This woman drives me abso-fucking-lutly insane with lust, but she’s too young for me. I’m too damaged.

Kensi’s multi-colored eyes land on me and a genuine smile graces her full, red lips. She hands Danyella, Capone’s Ol’ Lady, her pool stick and sways her hips in my direction.

Fuck.

She veers off before reaching the table and saunters to the bar. A prospect wipes down the spot Kensi leans against and they carry on a conversation. My blood pressure rises with each laugh and smile they pass between each other. My hand itches for my gun to put a bullet between the prospect’s eyes. That’ll wipe the smirk off his face.

“Hey, bro. Either you’re going to claim that shit or leave my prospect alone.” Red slaps me on the back hard. Red is our tech guy and our go to for any information we need on someone or somewhere. He’s sponsoring the Prospect named Bones. Bones has handled his shit with the Club and is close to being patched over, but if the fucker lays one hand on Kensi, he’ll be six feet under instead.

I grunt and ignore Red, still staring at Bones and Kensi. She looks in my direction and catches me watching them. Her breath hitches in her throat and her tits rise and fall in rapid succession. My cock hardens, begging to be released and unleash the monster on Kensi’s pussy. She’s made it very clear she wants me, but she’s too young.

Being five years my junior, that puts her at barely passing puberty. Ok, that’s a lie, but it’s what I have to keep telling myself to keep my hands and my cock off her.

“Hey, Bear-Bear,” AlleyCat, my go to patch whore, slides onto my lap and my dick deflates faster than Kensi brings it up. I hate it when she calls me that. My mom always called me Bear-Bear when I was little and it grates on my nerves. I need to speak with Capone about changing it soon. Alley grabs my chin turning my face toward hers, dragging my eyes away from Kensi’s delectable body. She must see something pass on my face because her soft hand releases me and she stands up. She leans over and whispers in my ear. “Stop fighting it.” And sits on Aero’s lap. He slaps her ass and gropes her tit seeing if I have a reaction. I don’t. AlleyCat isn’t the one my dick wants. She isn’t the one that haunts my dreams and makes my cock hard. Kensi is.

I stand up and search the bar for Kensi but don’t see her. I’m ready to claim what’s mine that I’ve been fighting against for so long. Bones is also missing and blood pounds in my ears. The motherfucker better not touch what’s mine. Searching all over the commons room, dining room, everywhere I can see with my eyes, neither of them are here. Fisting my hands at my sides, I give a deadly roar. All eyes land on my agitated state when Danyella motions her head to her left. That’s when I see Kensi, sitting on the couch drinking a beer, watching me intently. Her blue and green colored eyes hide nothing of what’s she’s feeling or thinking. And with that scowl on her face, I’d be dead in an instant.

My feet move me toward her when shouting comes from the hallway that leads to the garage. “Bear!” Someone screams my name. Instead of going to Kensi, I head in the direction of the screaming and shouting.

I sense bodies around me but all I can focus on is the woman lying on the concrete floor of our garage covered in blood and bruising. I slide onto my knees and gently cradle my mom’s head in my lap. Her clothes, or what’s left of them, are torn. She has nicks, cuts and bruises all over her body.

“Mom,” I gently shake her. “Mom, can you hear me? What happened?” I gently pat her blonde hair out of her face, covered in blood. I’m praying for her to open her crystal blue eyes and see me. “Mom?”

She stirs and the rise and fall of her chest tells me she isn’t dead but she’s in a lot of pain. Derange and Trigger check her over.

“Bear, we need to move her gently.” Derange says softly. “We need her in the medic room to assess her injuries.”

I gently slide my grip under her shoulders and legs and lift. Mom sucks in a deep, shuttering breath from the movement, but then settles back down, her head rests on my chest. “Does anyone know what the fuck happened?” I growl.

“Red’s on the CCV camera’s right now going over surveillance. As soon as he finds something, he’ll let us know.” Capone answers.

“Thanks, Prez.” Trigger leads the way into the medic room and I carefully set mom down on the bed. She doesn’t move much besides whimpering. Most of her injuries look superficial, but I’m not a doctor.
