Wild Child (30 page)

V shrugged his shoulders. “Fuck, I hope they listen to us. Rabid ain't fooling around. Now the only other thing I gotta do is tell Kima and I ain't fuckin looking forward to doing that.”

Thrash and Nailz looked at each other at the same time.

“Damn, Thrash, we gotta do the same thing. I'd feel better V, if our ladies were at Hunter's. Can you arrange that?” Nailz requested.

Thrash laughed at Nailz.

“Already taken care of. Now you gotta go tell Jo.”

V grinned, “Kima’s going to be the one with a problem. I hope she’ll like having the girls staying at the Lodge with her. They can do a girl's weekend. Hunter wants them all up at his house to be safe. He's leaving guys behind, to stay at the lodge.”

Thrash looked at his brother. “Looks like China’s the angel and you got the Trouble, bro!”

V nodded his head, Thrash got that right.

I was pouting when V told me that I wouldn't be going on the run.

“So, you’re telling me that
no one
is taking their old ladies? Not even the sluts?” I looked at him suspiciously. “Oh! I know, Virginia has it's own bunch of sluts!”

Veiko stood, his legs apart, looking me.

He shouted, losing his patience. “Kima, I swear to God, even if women were allowed, you wouldn't be going! China and Jo are staying home! Hunter is coming, but Elena is staying home!
WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT FROM ME!”
He continued, “The president said
NO WOMEN!
That means
NOBODY
gets to bring any.
PERIOD!”

V took a deep breath trying to calm down and went on.

“Look! I don't know what you expect from me. I
cannot
bring you. Even if I could, I wouldn't. Don't you remember the mess Jo got into with those hillbilly fuckers? You think they wouldn't try something? I got the feeling this isn't going to be a party, Kima. It’s a meeting. Our old president was killed and the brothers are unhappy. That's all you're getting from me, so deal with it. Have a girl's sleepover or something, but you
are
gonna stay here at the lodge. China and Jo will be here too under the watch of a few Unlawful bro's. Bitch all you want, but that's how it is. I got enough shit to handle and worry about. We good?”

I looked down and sighed. “Yeah, we're good. But why do we have to be at the lodge? Maybe we could go out to some bars?” I was thinking that at least we could have fun while they were away.

V grabbed me by the shoulders and shook me. He was beyond pissed right now.

“Kima, I’m gonna say this once! You're
my
old lady. And, an old lady of the Vice President for Bound for Hell. Do you think you're
safe
if any other club wanders around Ocean Cove or even here?
Use your fucking head!
I don't need your baby bullshit right now. Go talk to Elena about this!”

He stormed out, slamming the door.

I was a little stunned and knew I’d pushed V too far. I got that I was a target for other clubs who weren’t friends with Bound for Hell MC. I also wondered how Jo and China were taking this news.

Oh hell, I may as well head up to see Elena and talk to her.

Jo had agreed to meet Nailz at a park in Beach View. She got there first and selected a picnic table that was hidden out of view. It was risky and she had to make an excuse to sneak out. Her father wanted her to help him at his office but she told him a neighbor asked her to babysit.

Jo really hoped that they didn't run into anyone who’d tell her parents. She was thinking of Nailz.

It brought a blush to her face as she recalled how amazing Nailz was in bed and out of bed. Hell, she craved sex with her old man now.

She was his old lady! It was something that she’d never, in her wildest dreams, have imagined for herself.

Her parents were going to freak the fuck out! Oh God! She could imagine her socially conscious, uptight parents meeting Nailz. She had to laugh at the scenario she envisioned:
Hi Mom and Dad. I want you to meet Nailz. He's in Bound for Hell and, by the way, I'm his old lady!

They would look at this huge, intimidating biker and faint dead away. Then they would disown her.

Jo heard the rumble of his Harley and saw him ride up and park nearby. He sat on his chopper looking around. He finally saw where she was sitting and made his way to her.

When he got there, he snatched Jo up and gave her a kiss. He broke off, smiling. “Hey, brat.”

She smiled him back. “Hey, Nailz.”

Nailz wasted no time. “I wanted to let you know I have to go on a run. It's mandatory. You need to get the weekend away from your parents when I go. No women are allowed and it’s safer for you to be at the lodge. Hunter will have some members staying to watch over Elena, you, Kima and China.”

“I’m fine at my parent's house, Nailz. Nobody would dare come there.”

Nailz shook his head, frowning, “Jo, you gotta understand. You're
my
old lady. This isn't a game, or pretend, after the sex we've had. I'm keeping you, so get used to it. I won't feel like you're safe unless I know you're at the Lodge. I gotta shit load of things to do before I go. I admit I didn't want an old lady, but I claimed you before my entire club. That means you’re wearing my property patch. I have to keep you safe. Look what happened with Skunk - you don't need anymore shit like that happening do you?

Jo looked down and muttered, “No I don't. But there is one thing that I need to talk to you about because it's been bothering me.” She took a deep breath, then continued, “I'm sure you fuck other women, Nailz. I suppose I don't have any right to ask, but could you be discreet when...”

Jo didn't have a chance to finish. Nailz stood up and grabbed her. He crushed his lips to hers, kissing her deeply. As he broke off the kiss, Nailz looked deep into her eyes and growled, “Don't ya know that it's always been you? I haven't fucked anyone since I met your skinny lil' ass. You're the one I want.” He planted a light kiss on top of her head. “So, will you stay at the lodge? Could you do that for me?”

Jo looked up at him. She had a shining smile on her face. “Of course. We'll have a blast and I’ll babysit Kima."

Nailz groaned again, knowing that leaving her would be hard. For the first time ever, he didn't want to go on a run. Squeezing her to him, he gave her another long scorching kiss. He broke away reluctantly, “Gotta go, Brat. You be good and stay out of trouble. I'll see ya when I get back.”

Jo rubbed the pad of her thumb over his bottom lip. She sighed, wistfully, “Nailz, please be safe. I'll be thinking about you.”

“I'll be thinking about you too, Chickie,” He walked back to his bike, got on, kick started it, and roared out of there.

Jo watched as Nailz rode off and disappeared over the horizon. Somehow she was going to make this work and her parents would have to accept it. She didn't quite know
how
she would tell them and decided that she would keep it to herself for now. For the time being, they’d have to sneak around until she came up with some sort of plan.

Now that she had Nailz in her life, she wasn't letting him go. As an adult, her parents wouldn't have a say about who she decided to see.

Jo was sick of living beneath her father's thumb. She would find a job and move out. Perhaps she and Nailz would live together in time. As for college, she would pay her own way. Her parents might not like the idea, but it was
her
life and she would make her
own
decisions. She was taking control and it felt liberating!

Thrash was holding China, which was something he did often since she became his old lady. He hated the idea of leaving her and wasn't sure how he’d tell her.

China beat him to it. “So - this run that you go on? It's for men only?”

“Yeah, Honey, it is. I need you to go to Elena's for the weekend where I know you'll be safe.”

China frowned. “I don't understand. Why wouldn't I be safe here? Would someone come to hurt me?”

Thrash gave China a soft kiss on her forehead. “Honey, I couldn't bear to lose you if somebody wanted to hurt me through you. Don't worry, it’ll be fun. Hunter has some guys to watch over you at the Lodge and Jo, Kima, and Elena will be there. You can do whatever girl shit you wanna do.”

“It’ll be fun to see the girls. When do I need to go?"

Thrash was happy that China was being so sweet about it. “In a few days. We've got time for us to be alone and I'm planning to close the shop down for a few weeks. After I get home, we’ll have time to take a vacation.”

“A vacation? I've never been out of New Jersey. Where will we go?”

“I don't know, but whatever you want is fine with me.”

China got excited and pulled Thrash toward the bedroom. “Anywhere? I'd would love to go to France. I always dreamed of going there.”

Thrash laughed. “France? I can afford that for you. Now get naked so I can look at my beautiful woman.”

China happily did as she was told and started to take off her clothes.

The day of the mandatory run was bright and clear. Everyone showed up straight and dues were paid. Veiko had the money on him that Rabid demanded. V had also heard that Tramp, the National Vice President, was stepping down.

He wondered who’d be voted in. Tramp was smart to get out. Being Rabid's VP wouldn't be easy.

He was glad Rabid had said no women. The last thing he needed was for Rabid to see Kima. She was beautiful and had Irish/Russian background. Seemed Rabid was in the market for an old lady to please his Irish mother and Kima would be a perfect candidate. According to Thrash, she would be exactly what Rabid was looking for and he would have no qualms about abusing his power and taking her. Another reason to get rid of that fucker.

Thrash had told him about how Rabid cut and raped women. He said there was more, but he didn't want to talk about it. It was one of the reasons he’d left Rabid.

When the bikes pulled out of Ocean Cove they were riding in a long line. Once they hit the highway they would ride two by two and not break that line until they met up with other chapters of Bound for Hell. Once all of them were riding together it would be a sight to behold.

The sun shined in his face, Veiko sought his wind therapy.

Rabid was sitting in the shade of the Virginia clubhouse porch. Each chapter president in the Bound for Hell nation had been by Rabid and handed him money from their chapters. State presidents were all around him and his personal guards or as he called them his
'boys',
were always close by.

Flop had been tossed back to the Central New Jersey brothers. Rabid saw their dislike for him and grinned.
Good,
he thought,
this would be easy.

He was happy to see Thrash and was amazed his SAA had taken an old lady. In fact, that made life easier. He could always use an old lady to keep his boys in line but Rabid truly liked the Finn brothers. He felt safe around them. Nailz, he'd trust with his life, and had done so many times. But, Jersey... the fact that fucker was with them was pissing him off.

He finally asked Bullet to bring Jersey, The Finns, and Nailz, to him to speak privately. He wanted to see how Jersey would react. Once, they'd been friends, and then when he stepped up, Jersey stepped down. Could have been over Crabs’ death and Rabid didn't need anybody stirring up that shit. Flop had to go. Stupid fucker got too wasted and shot his mouth off. Rabid didn't need him getting more wasted and saying he had told him to kill Crabs.
