“Binx! Behave.”

His eyes moved upward as he sighed, “If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard that…”

Mal laughed and waved them on. “Come on. The guys are packing the bikes, the others are outside. Get going!”

Binx leaned in and said, “Keep at him. Not like pushing him. That doesn’t work with guys like that, but just don’t let him pull away. If he tries, then you’ll be wherever he is. If he shows one bit of cracking, comfort him. Let him know it’s okay to let his guard down with you.”

Surprised, Sel asked, “Really? That’s…rational.”

“Well, it’s a start. Once we get a little closer, we’ll help you seal the deal.”

“There it is,” Mal said, laughing.

Sel agreed with laughter. “I didn’t plan on letting up on him, just FYI.”

“Good. Because Mal thinks he’s falling hard for you.”

Sel turned his head to Mal, who looked murderous. “Binx, have I told you that you have a big mouth?”

“Oh, I know that. It’s a good thing, too, because both my Sirs are…generously endowed.”

All eyes rolled while Binx was staring dreamily, thinking about his partners’ dicks.

Mal kneeled near Sel’s chair, and said, “Prince told you, right?”

“Yeah. I didn’t know. Don’t, uh…say anything to him. He’d be embarrassed and pissed. Just know that all of this is hard for him. He’ll try to push you away. I know he will, but it just means he’s realizing how he feels. Kirk did the same to me. They’re proud, they’re gruff, they hate falling in love, especially with a man. They can be out and proud, but still, you know…and with them, love is a weakness.”

“So,” Binx said, snapping his fingers, “Make him feel like his love for you is strengthening him.”

“I have a feeling Binxie is going to have three more ideas before tomorrow,” Mal whispered.

“Oh, it won’t take that long,” Binx assured him.

Sel excused himself to walk with Mal into the living room. While they were alone, he asked Mal, “How dangerous is it for him today?”

“We’ll be there to back him up. He’s taking the lead because he will be the president of the Aztecas up here and Doggy will be for the Devils, if all this goes together. The Kinsmen are tough, but they’re not our enemies or anything. Dante is going to back us up, too.”

“He’s going?”

“Yes. He thought it wise, being he’s backing the move for us. He can give them perks, like you were saying.”

“Shouldn’t I be there, then?”

“No. Not this time, Sel. Let us handle this. Dante knows bikers. You’re just starting. It’s not a learning curve.”

He nodded and said, “Got it. The Bloods are going to be there too, right?”

“Blood Nations. Don’t call them Bloods,” Mal said. “It gets them mixed up with the gang from LA.”

Sel laughed a little as the embarrassment overcame him. “I guess it’s good I hang back.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure he’s okay. I promise.”

“I trust you.”

Walking back into the kitchen, Sel told the smaller group, “I may need to figure out how to listen in or go with them. Mal didn’t want to say it, but Indio and my uncle could be in danger.”
