My mind flicked to Savage’s expression this afternoon, and I cringed. He’d believed that I thought he was inviting me.

A part of me had longed to yell at him not to be so arrogant but had decided it wasn’t worth it. From his point of view, I suppose Savage guessed women saw him as a meal ticket. And honestly, he could be one. Savage worked nights, which meant he wouldn’t hang around the home much. To someone like me, or what he knew of me, I guess Savage was correct in thinking he was a catch.

I pulled into Rage and wondered where to go. A figure waved from a gate in the wall that surrounded what I assumed was the compound. For a brief moment, I considered throwing the car into reverse and running for it, and then a couple of the old ladies appeared, and I was trapped. Aw, damn it.

Parking where the guy, Harley, on the gate pointed to, I let the kids out, and they walked quietly with me towards the entrance.

“Welcome,” Phoe said with a smile on her face as I offered a tentative one back and accepted a hug. “Come on, be warned, it’s loud in there. All the Hellions are present tonight.”

Somehow, that didn’t reassure me. Nor did a girl about twelve years old when she approached at speed.

“Hey, remember me? I’m Eddie, that’s my Mama Phoe. I’m in charge of the Princesses. Would you like to join us?” Eddie questioned.

I noted how Phoe kept a sharp eye on her daughter.

“Mommy?” Isla asked as another girl joined us.

“Hi, I’m Davy, and I’m ten. We met the other day. Will you join Eddie and me?” she inquired warmly.

“I’m Harper, and I’m eight, and this is my little sister Isla, and she’s six,” Harper finally replied.

“Great, come with us. We’re plotting something for the Legacies,” Eddie stated with a wicked smile.

“No cattle prods, no sharp-ended objects, no lassos or ropes. No bricks, dye, catapults, bows and arrows, baseball bats—and no fricking tasers, Eddie!” Phoe said to my horror.

Eddie rolled her eyes as I tried to decide whether to snatch my girls up and run.

“And no stealing Aunt Artemis’s nun-chucks, throwing stars or garottes,” Lindsey added.

“Mom, you’re boring,” Davy stated, grabbing Harper and Isla’s hands and dragging them away.

“Tell me you’re joking,” I demanded as my kids disappeared into the crowd.

Phoe was craning her neck, clearly looking for somebody.

“Yeah, they joined with Aria and Alyssa. The Legacies will get their comeuppance tonight,” Autumn said as she approached.

“Hellions? Legacies? Someone explain, and are my girls in danger?” I snapped, my voice rising.

“Hellions are what we call the children as a collective. Legacies are the boys because they are their father’s legacy to the club. As a child born to or adopted by a brother, they have the immediate right to join as a prospect. Princesses are the girls, although ours are rather sneaky and not fairy tale princesses,” Phoe explained.

“The princesses are more dangerous than the Legacies, but the boys don’t learn. They bait the girls, who then plot dire revenge, and the Legacies lose out. But they are as stubborn as their fathers and refuse to give up,” Lindsey added as she walked towards various large hot tubs with several women in. Lindsey shucked her shorts and tee and climbed into one.

Silvie nodded at me as she took up a huge area. She seemed at ease as she floated in the oversized tub.

“The hot tubs help Silvie with her condition. So, we always ensure she has plenty of space to stretch out if she needs it,” Carly explained, popping up beside me.

“You fucking damn well will attend that appointment, Jett, or believe me, I’m taking two bricks to your balls!” a screech went up.

A frown crossed my face as I looked around for the commotion.

“That is Sin, and she’s pregnant again.” Carly grinned.

“Sorry, I don’t understand,” I admitted.

“Jett has given Sin five kids in six years. Plus, they have an older daughter. Despite his promise, Jett continues to knock Sin up. Even if they use protection, it still happens. And she’s prego again. It seems Jett has potent sperm,” a woman called Casey explained.

“Holy shit.” I gasped, horrified.
