“Harlee’s good,” I tell him.
“Tara’s ready to raise hell.” Wrath chuckles.
Hades and Trigger stay quiet.
We make it back to the clubhouse quickly. As soon as the SUV comes to a stop, the clubhouse door springs open and women start pushing each other outside.
I laugh as I watch Harlee hop the railing, rushing toward me.
“Better get out,” Hades murmurs.
I jump out just in time for her to crash into me.
“You’re okay,” she sighs against my neck.
“I’m good.”
She pulls back and grabs my face, slamming her lips against mine. I forget where we are and everything around us. All of my thoughts are consumed by the woman in my arms.
“Are they trying to make a porno?” our lawyer asks thoughtfully.
“They are young and in love,” Natalie says, defending us.
Harlee laughs as she pulls away. Much to my dismay, she unwraps her legs from around my waist and jumps down. Before she can step to the side, I pull her in front of me, wrapping my arms around her neck.
“I’m sorry,” she tells the guys.
“What are you sorry for?” Wrath asks.
“It was a trap. I knew it, you knew it, and yet I was adamant we went.”
“Do you think Adalyn set us up?” Trigger asks as he crosses his arms over his chest.
“I don’t know. I’d like to think she didn’t, but there is always a chance. If she did, though, I don’t think it was something she did willingly,” she tells us.
“Has she reached out to you?” I ask.
Harlee shakes her head. “I know it’s stupid, but I’m worried about her.”
“It’s not stupid, Dansworth is a loose cannon. We all know it,” Reaper says as he holds onto Natalie.
“What do we do now?” Harlee asks after a moment of silence.
“Now you let us handle it. If she calls, you let us know. Don’t do anything with her without us knowing first,” Trigger says.
Reaper nods. “I agree. I know it sucks, and she’s your friend, but she’s being used against you, against us. We can’t let it continue.” Reaper looks over at the lawyer. “Did you catch anything while you were waiting for us at the police station?”
“Just the classic bullshit propaganda. I know it might be hard, Harlee, but I agree with Trigger, stay away from the girl. At least until we can get her away from her old man,” the lawyer says.
Harlee reluctantly nods. “Okay, I can do that.”
“Okay, now that everyone is home, how about we head inside and eat? I ordered a bunch of food because I didn’t know how long it would be, and I knew you guys would be hungry. Lawyer, you are more than welcome to stay,” Natalie says.
The lawyer shakes his head. “As much as I would love to, I need to get back to the office. My secretary needs her car back before it’s too late to pick her kids up from daycare.”
“Thanks for coming to our rescue,” Reaper tells him.
“Anytime. I’ll see you guys later.”
