Sold to the MC Men

He simply didn’t want to leave her.

All four of his men had confided in him, each of them telling him the same thing. They all had fallen in love with Leah. None of them could explain how it had happened, just that they couldn’t live without her.

“Do we have to go? We don’t need the money,” Junior said.

“It does feel too close for comfort. I got no problem making the run, but I told you, I don’t want to do any time,” Tank said.

“We all don’t want to leave Leah, and that’s the truth,” Trick said. “There’s no point denying it.”

“I’m not going to,” Dig said.

“We can’t all go,” Edge said. “I’m not willing to leave Leah here alone. We’ve got enemies. Our clubhouse is safe, but not from people who are determined to get inside.”

“This is bullshit. Can’t we just wait?”

“Nope, there’s no waiting,” Edge said. “This is part of our agreement, and it has been over a month since our last run. He wouldn’t have asked if it wasn’t necessary.”

Marcel was a good ally and friend.

“Do we draw straws?” Dig asked. “Only one of us needs to stick around here. I don’t want any of you to be at risk, so I’m coming with.”

“Junior will be staying behind,” Edge said.

“What the fuck for?” Junior asked. “You need me. You know I’m good at detecting trouble.”

He was. Over the years, Junior had gotten them out of several bad situations.

“I know, but Leah is our priority right now. I know you’ll keep her safe.”

“What about you guys? I don’t want to risk it,” Junior said.

“We can make it there and back without any problems. If everything is paid for, I don’t see there being a problem,” Trick said.

“Marcel’s never let us down,” Edge said.

“We didn’t have anything to lose then,” Tank said. “I want us to talk about Leah.”

“We are talking about her,” Dig said.

Edge looked at his men. “You’re all in love with her.”

They all turned toward him.

“And you’re not?” Junior asked.

Edge was silent. He honestly didn’t have a clue what to do or say. He was at a loss. “Look, it doesn’t matter—”

“It does,” Junior said. “I don’t want to wait around for Leah to either grow bored or for us all to fuck ourselves to death. I love her. I want her to be our woman, and for us all to start a family with her.”

“Don’t you think you’re a bit young to be wanting a family?” Edge asked.

“I’m thirty years old. I’m ready to be a dad, and in case it hasn’t crossed any of your minds, anyone noticed how our woman hasn’t even asked for a break in the last couple of weeks?”

Edge frowned at Junior. “What?”

“She’s a woman. Women have cycles, and our woman hasn’t. Anyone find that odd?”

The entire table tensed.

“I see we’re finally on the same page. I haven’t tried to be safe with her. I want her to be pregnant because I love her. You’ve all got to make a decision.”

“I’m the club President.”

“So tell me, Edge, what’s it going to be? Are you in love with Leah or not?”

His men were all looking at him, and as he stared at them, he wasn’t seeing any of them. He saw Leah. The way she stretched out beneath him as he made love to her. Her head tilted back, laughing so hard because he was tickling her. He loved how she ran into his arms and kissed him.

Above all else, he loved the smile she often gifted him with. It was the kind of smile that told him he was loved, or cared for.

“Yes, I do,” he said. The words fell from his lips, and he knew how true they were.

He had fallen in love with Leah, and now, he didn’t want to let her go. It was why he’d not brought up the subject of her mother. He had to deal with the woman, and for the past few weeks, he’d allowed everything to run its course.

“Before we go, we’ve got to get a pregnancy test,” Trick said. “We need to know before we leave if she’s pregnant.”

“What about Leah?” Tank said. “We’re all assuming she’s going to want to be with us, and none of us know how she really feels. She was given to us, but that doesn’t mean she came willingly. Far from it, in fact.”

“Then we ask her,” Edge said. He was really fucking nervous. “I’ll go and get the test. You guys stay here, and when I get back, we’ll discuss everything.”

“When you get back?”

“Yes, surely you can all wait that long.” He got to his feet, slamming his hand down on the table and leaving.

A child.

A baby.

The chance to be a father.

He’d never trusted a woman with his kid before, but he’d watched Leah carrying washing, as silly as it sounded, and she would make one hell of a mother. Not just because she carried washing but he’d seen the kindness inside her.
