“This is going to be awesome,” Maeve said.
Eden had never known her sister to be so excited for Halloween.In the past, Maeve was often busy with clients who wanted to look the part, only this time she had taken the night off.This was not like her sister, who loved to do the full glam moment and Halloween looks.
They stepped into the main clubhouse, and there was spiderwebs, with purple and black trims.Glow-up coffins and tombstones.It looked like Halloween had vomited onto the clubhouse.It looked incredible and Eden loved it.
She was making her way to the bar, when someone pressed their hands across her eyes, and she felt him—Razor.
“Well, well, well, has heaven really let out an angel?”he asked.
She couldn’t help but smile, and she turned toward Razor and saw that he was dressed all in black, and he even wore black horns.He looked like a devil.He made her heart race, and she couldn’t believe she had any doubts.
“Okay, I need to cut this short,” Maeve said.“You know your little buddy, Mac, well, a few months ago, he decided to pay your woman a visit and according to him, you’re using Eden.”
Eden’s eyes went wide as Maeve’s words sunk in, and she turned to glare at her sister.“You didn’t have to tell him.”
“Wait, what the fuck is going on here?What the hell is she saying?”Razor asked.
And Maeve was more than happy to spill the details.
Eden could do no more and watched as Razor suddenly threw himself across the room, and people parted the way as Razor started to pound on Mac.
“And that is exactly what that asshole deserves,” Maeve said.
****
Razor should have knownthat Mac would attempt to ruin this for him.Anger rushed down his spine.The last few weeks as he’d been organizing every little detail, painstakingly going over everything so it was perfect for tonight, Mac had been giving snide comments, attempting to derail his proposal.
He had ignored that shit, because he didn’t want to upset Doc.The last time had resulted in him being away on club business, and he didn’t want to deal with that shit.He wanted to stay with Eden.So, he’d kept his anger to himself, even though all he wanted to do was hurt that son of a bitch.
Now, he was not holding back, even as Mac shoved him.“What the fuck?”
“Do you think you can worm your way back to my woman?You’ve got another thing coming.”He struck out, hitting Mac on the chin.
“What the fuck is going on now?”Doc asked, coming between them.
“That asshole attacked me for no reason,” Mac said.
“No reason, you, you piece of shit, tried to hurt my woman by saying I was using her.You’re the one who was fucking using her.You knew I wanted her, and you decided to sweep in.Don’t think I don’t know your game.You’re an asshole, Mac, and you’ve always been an asshole.”
“Take your shit outside,” Doc said.
Razor looked at Doc.
“Not you.Mac, get the fuck out.You don’t need to see this shit.”
Mac looked from Razor to Eden, and then to Doc.Razor had no doubt if Doc hadn’t been here, the club brother would have told Eden what was about to happen.
“You’ve got to do it now,” Doc said.
“Do what now?”Eden asked.
He spun toward her as the lights changed, and they were no longer the flashing purple and orange of the festive lights.
Razor looked at Maeve, who nodded her head.
“I had a whole big speech planned, and there was going to be dancing, and I was going to do a lot of hinting about how an angel and devil should always be together because they balance each other out.”Razor sunk down on one knee, reaching into his jacket.“I wanted everything to be perfect.”
Eden pressed her fingers against her lips.
