“I asked her if she had a problem with me ...getting to know you.Dating you.”
“I had no idea.What did she say?”
“Oh, she told me if I hurt you the same way Mac had done, she was going to cut my balls off, and then, while she was at it, she was going to do the exact same thing to every single guy at the club.”
Eden’s mouth dropped open.“You’re kidding?”
“Nope, not even a little bit, and I have a feeling your sister was being serious.”
“She was.”
She wouldn’t put it past Maeve to take a knife to any of the guys for hurting her.
“I can’t believe you asked her.”
He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pressed a kiss to her temple.“It’s all good, babe.So, what do we have here, and what do we have cooking?”
She held up chocolate chips.“Brownies.”
“Woman, I would crawl over broken glass to eat your brownies.”
This made her smile.
Razor didn’t let her go, he put his hand on her waist as she finished the shopping.She noticed they were getting strange looks, but she didn’t care about that.People would judge, she was used to it.
She and Maeve had been judged for not crying enough at their parents’ funerals.She had even caught the gossip claiming they had done it.She was not the confrontational type.Maeve was, and she went off the deep end and brought those rumors to an abrupt stop.Maeve didn’t like people talking bad shit about her, and she couldn’t blame her.
At the counter, Razor surprised her by helping her pack the bags as well.He was a gentleman, and as they made their way outside, she spotted his bike parked next to her car.
“I’ll follow you home.”
She was not going to complain.Even though they had talked every night, she hadn’t realized how much she had missed him.This was a whole new feeling for her.

Club business had draggedon longer than Razor had wanted it to.There had been some mix-up at one of their bases where they transported the drugs.The updates had been hazy, and the details vague, and Doc hadn’t liked it.
Razor, along with five others, had to ride out and check what was going on.They discovered they had been robbed, and this pissed Razor off.
The reason it was vague was, the guy that handled the security of their base was in the hospital.He’d been attacked by ten men, and there was no way he would have been able to protect the base.Doc was pissed.
Razor and several of the guys had to track the shipment, and of course it stunk of the Mafia, only they claimed not to have anything to do with it.It turned out to be a small-time pimp who was looking to make a lot of money fast.He attempted to water the product down and fed it to his girls so they would stay in line.
The pimp was long gone, the product dealt with, but it took close to a month to deal with the problems.Razor knew he couldn’t just leave it, so he had no choice but to have calls with Eden.
They were not enough.He didn’t want to tell a woman he wanted to get to know her, date her, and then be reduced to fucking phone calls.It pissed him off.
Stepping out of Eden’s shower, he made his way across the room and looked into the mirror.There had been no time for shaving, but while he was at the grocery store, he’d paid for a grooming kit, and it was time to take off the beard and mustache.He needed a nice, clean face.He knew some of the guys loved a face full of hair, but not him.Within minutes, it was gone, and he was starting to feel like himself.
Now, he could handle shit with ease.
His body was heavily inked.He loved getting tattoos, and each one meant something to him.The biggest was on his back, the Chaos Monsters MC patch.The base of his back had the flames, and rising from them were monsters about to cause the chaos.Doc’s grandfather had designed it on the back of a freaking napkin, and it had stuck ever since, and most of the guys get it inked on their body in some way or another.
Chaos Monsters MC was his life.
Cleaning up his mess, he made his way back into Eden’s bedroom and got changed into his jeans and shirt before making his way downstairs.He hadn’t stopped long enough to take a shower back at the clubhouse, just long enough to get Doc and the guys up to speed, then his only mission was to get here as fast as possible.He did that as well.
The scent of chocolate was heavy in the air and as he made his way to the kitchen doorway, he watched Eden work in her element.He saw the oven was on.She had one of those ovens that was in the wall at chest height.The light was on.
