Keeping The Biker (Royal Bastards MC: Charleston, WV 4)

I don’t reply because despite her tough act I know Pam is hurting. She’s going to go home and cry herself to sleep. Nothing about this is okay. I get it. Some of the men are unfaithful. Hell James was a cheater, but I don’t think he’d do that to me. Link was supposed to be one of the good guys though.

“I’ll see you for the big day. Go to your man. He’s waiting for you.” Her shoulders drop, and she trudges back the way we came.

“Pam,” I call out, but she keeps moving.

“I got her,” East tells me, jogging to catch up with her.

Fuck this. Fuck Link. Who does he think he is doing this shit right in front of everyone? He’s making a fool of Pam. His bitchy and crazy ass woman. She may be a pain in my ass most the time, but she deserves better than this.

James locks his eyes with mine. Then he stares past me then back to the scene that has me shaking my head. I watch him utter the word fuck and move to his feet.

“Babe.”

“Don’t try to defend that. Pam just walked out of here with her heart shattered to go pick up their son.”

He grabs both my arms. “It’s none of our business. Jesus, Lex. What you want me to do? Yank the whore off his dick?”

“For starters.”

My man shakes his head. “Pam’s a big girl she can handle her shit just fine.”

“You didn’t see her face, honey. I can’t believe I am saying this, but Pam is a good woman. He should have more respect for their marriage than that.”

“Drop it, pretty girl. Been waiting for you to bring that fine ass to me all night. Let’s leave the men to their party and go to bed, yeah?”

“I’m thirsty.”

“Fine. Prospect,” he booms. “Get my woman a water.”

“Tell him I want ice.” I smile and kiss his cheek.

“Crushed ice.”

“Thank you.”

Chapter Nine

When Rio hands Alexa her water his hand is shaking. Alexa goes to take a sip, but I stop her. Been keeping an eye on him all night. Fucker’s acting weird. All jittery and shit. Like he’s high. I know he was given a script for painkillers, but this is something else. I keep thinking back on that scene at the motel when he called me. I know he’s eager but why wouldn’t he have taken Viking for backup? Why did he call me? He was at my house when the drive by went down. Something isn’t adding up.

“Don’t drink that.”

Alexa gives me a funny look. “What’s wrong?”

“Need you to go upstairs to my room and wait for me.”

“Honey?”

“Now, Alexa. Got some shit to discuss with the prospect. Ditch the water.”

“If you say so.” She flicks her wrist and dumps the water on the head of the whore giving Link a blowjob.

The whore screeches and jerks up at the same time Link pulls away. “You bit my dick.”

Alexa snorts. “Serves you right.”

“Get a handle on your woman.” He points at me and I growl.

“Lex. Upstairs now.”
