Page 23 of Cage's Fall

“Taxis are here.” Wild roared out to them. I think he just wanted them out of the club so he could drink in silence.

Autumn walked past them, having a conversation with some of the guys. And I was up as Jacob had a word with Lit. No way in hell was I letting Autumn out wearing that.

“Where you are going?” Jacob looked at me. I had made it clear earlier I wasn’t going.

“With you all. Someone has to make sure you seven don’t get fucking arrested,” I muttered.

“Didn’t ya hear Prez? No colors.” Lit looked at my club cut. So I shrugged it off. “Or guns, or knives.” He added. And I was already undoing my holsters.

Fuck I felt naked without my weapons.

Was she worth this? I knew I could protect her with my fists if I had to, didn’t need the gun. But for us all to be going out naked, with drinking tempers- it was going to be a nightmare. If we didn’t end up behind bars, it would be a miracle.

Autumn

The boys looked like criminals. Perhaps it was the fact that each one of them was in black. Tattoos. And tempers. First club wouldn’t let us in. The boys took it on the chin and went to the next one. They each got patted down, I however was ushered in— but waited for them to get through.

Then once they were in, it was fair to say. Well, there were no words. I ended up offering to get their drinks because they were scaring others away from the bar.

Their laughter could be seen, as they had taken over a booth. A few of them had women. My eyes went to Cage. I wondered if he knew yet? There was a blonde to the right that had her eyes on him, since he walked in.

I could understand why. He was tall, handsome, and those tattoos mixed with the tight black shirt, along with the dog tags around his neck, the neck tattoo and his laugh did wild things to me. I got a round of shots and weaved through the crowd, before placing them down on their table.

Jacob had disappeared by this point and I knew that the raven-haired beauty that asked him for directions outside the club, had scored his interest. Over his protection of me. Because he ditched us.

Leaving me with Lit, Vod and Cage in the booth. The other members had all scored, and if I had to guess would be deep into the woman they had scored.

Lit grinned at me, and I didn’t get in the booth. He moved over, and so did Cage. Vod gave both boys a look, as if to askwhy the fuck you getting closer to me. So did I go to Cage’s side or Lit’s side? .

I hadn’t spoken with Cage since he picked me up from school and even then, we didn’t really speak. He found out I was seventeen and I thinkhe had a freak out. While Lit, always knew my age and it was his birthday.

But then the thought of Cage’s hand on me, had me slipping into his side of the booth. To make it less awkward to Lit, I leaned over the small table to talk to him.

“So has any girls made the hit list?” I grinned at Lit.

He smirked, “Yeah one has.”

He leanedcloser over the table, it was already small but with three large bikers surrounding it, it felt smaller.

Just as I went to question him on who, I felt a hand on my thigh. His fingers slipping in on the inside of my thigh.

One finger trailing up.

I chewed my bottom lip, and Lit pushed a shot in front of me, from the tray I had brought over before.

His eyes were locked on mine. But Cage’s hand was on me.

“I think I’m going to dance,” I said before throwing the shot back. Cage’s hand tightened on my thigh. I knew he wanted me to stay put. But I couldn’t deal with the eyes Lit was giving me.

I snuck a glance at Cage, who was looking down at his drink.

I then brushed his hand off me, getting up and moving on to the dance floor.

CAGE

“Fuck that woman knows how to get a rise out of me.” Lit muttered, his eyes on Autumn as she moved onto the dance floor. I kept my lips shut. But I had to agree, she was fucking perfection.

Lit looked at me. “Thinking of seeing if I can get her and Casey both; make one of them my side piece.”
