Snake shared a look with Rider who wore the same jaw cracking grimace as he did.

The brothers were going nuts, rightly so, no one would ever expect Lawless to be lifted for any crime.

He covered his tracks like the catholic church did with all the molesting.

Lawless was careful.

Lawless was fuckingsmart.

He shared a second understanding look with Rider, who whistled for everyone to shut their mouths.

“Church. Now.”

“We need to give Archie a call, get our boy out of lock up asap.” Arson said.

The others agreed. There was nothing their on-call attorney couldn’t do. They paid Archie a big enough retainer to make sure no one from the club ever got into trouble and if they did, they soon were let go.

“Church,” growled Rider.

“What we gonna do about Law? This has to be a mistake, right?”

“We do nothing.”

There would be questions to answer.

Snake just hoped Lawless knew what the fuck he was doing.

Because they’d just lost the scary brains and enforcer of their MC … for fuck knows how long.

Angela stood outside in the cold for a long time.

Her feet rooted to the forecourt ground, looking off into the distance of where she’d watched the cop cars take Lawless through the gates.

No one would tell her anything, other than it would be okay.

But if it were okay, why then was no one going after them?

They thought she was a stupid kid offering her candy to shut her up.

She wanted to know what the fuck just happened.

Worrying her lower lip, she held her gaze and prayed for a miracle.

A shadow fell over her shoulder. “Hey, you okay?”

She was not okay.

She was far from okay.

Her chest gaped open and all she felt was pain.

Lawless was security.

He was protection.
