Prologue

Psycho – Seventeen Years Old

I shake my head as I watch Mama hug Marie tightly, tears streaming down her cheeks along with the brothers who try to hold in their laughter while Dad grins widely at their show.

My big sister, the pain in my ass, is moving to Paris to study art history and fine arts at the College of Arts, leaving us behind.

She has been dreaming of working in a gallery for as long as I can remember, and knowing mine and Dad’s luck, she’ll stay in Paris, and we’ll have to deal with an emotional Mama.

“She knows they’ll still speak on the phone, right?” Fury, my best friend, asks as he stops beside me, and I snort because he knows full well that won’t be enough for Mama.

Her kids are her life, we always have been.

Shaking my head, I look his way with a smirk, but it soon fades at his appearance. Bags line underneath his eyes, and his short brown hair is ruffled on top like he’s run his hand through it several times.

He feels guilty, but he shouldn’t.

“You know what Mama is like, brother,” I remind him, and he hums, watching the scene before us.

“Blade should be here saying goodbye. She’s like his sister, too,” he mutters, and I sigh.

See, still feels guilty even after ten months.

“Brother, you’ve got to stop feeling guilty,” I say, and he glares at me. I shrug and remind him again, “You would do the same for us if it were the other way around, and you know it, so stop blaming yourself," and he looks away, knowing I’m right.

Blade, our future president and best friend, took the fall for him ten months ago, getting locked up.

The girl Fury fucked lost her marbles and had decided to try and plant some coke on him when she’d found out he was also fucking her sister and best friend.

She went as far as calling the cops instead of trying to get him kicked out of school, wanting to ruin someone’s life just because she wasn’t his entire focus.

She was jealous and a fucking conniving bitch.

The feds had showed up to do a raid at the school just before she shoved the coke into Fury’s pocket without him realizing it, and when they stormed the school while none of us thought anything of it.

We minded our own business until Shane, a club friend and local law enforcement, whispered that the call was made anonymously against the brothers.

Unfortunately, for us, one cop, who was new to the force and not on the club's payroll, took one look at our prospect cuts and decided to take action and searched Fury after noticing Tanya subtly pointing a finger his way. Thankfully, Blade had already witnessed Tanya sliding a packet of coke into Fury’s jeans and thinking on his feet, he bumped into him and the cop, knocking the dick down then quickly took the stash out of Fury’s pocket shocking him.

The cop he knocked over went for him and decided to search him first out of spite, and lo and behold, he found the drugs.

Said cop is now dust in the air, Blade’s dad and mine doing the honors, hoping we’ll be able to get him out. An appeal is already in place, but the judge, who is not on our payroll, is dragging his feet, wanting to make an example of us because of our patches.

Fucking assholes.

The Dark Angel’s MC, a club Blade’s great, great grandfather built many moons ago does a lot for Rose Meadow, a small town on the outside of Santa Monica, California.

It brings in a lot of revenue, raises money for the local shelters, so you’d think the judge would let shit slide and of course Tanya has gotten away with the shit she’s caused being the mayor’s daughter and all.

It didn’t matter what we said, the judge wouldn’t listen.

The bitch knew Fury wouldn’t last two seconds inside without adding more time to his sentence and it is one hell of a fuck you for sleeping with her sister.

Though to be fair, they weren’t exclusive and only fucked twice but she wanted one thing – the patch Fury will hold in a few years and all she got was banished at school, no one going near her, the brothers having more sway.

Like Blade, who is going to take over from his father, Brick, and become president, and I, taking over from my father, Fury, will take over from his father, Bear, and become Blade’s Enforcer and the bitch was aware and had dollar signs in her eyes, like most women do.

Fuck even the clubwhores – women who we pay to cook and clean and stay at the clubhouse – want a brother’s patch, some succeeding in trapping brothers just for that leather and what it holds.

They love to fuck but they love the leather more and if it’s an officer brother then even fucking better. They undress in the evening and do everything to get a brother’s attention and twice dad has fallen for it after Mama had gone home and twice, she had looked the other way with heartbreak.

I fucking hit Dad the second time it happened and warned him not to do it again especially when the one he fucked wanted to try and get knocked up.

I get it, he’s a brother and temptation is hard for some but for him it shouldn’t be when Mama walks the earth for him. When she doesn’t give a shit about his cut and loves him for him.

Anyway, the officer brothers have a lot of say within the club and also get a larger chunk of money than a regular brother, something Tanya is aware of, hearing the rumors that the clubwhores spread.

She’s a fucking idiot is what she is.

Why would a brother make her an old lady – someone they see as their forever – when she fucks half the football team?

I shake my head and side-eye Fury, who hasn’t answered me.

“Don’t make me put you in a headlock, brother,” I threaten, and he snorts, looking my way again, a glint in his light green eyes.

“You may be psycho especially when you lose your tempter and beat the shit out of assholes who start on Ivy but my temper is worse than yours and we both know it,” he states, and I grin wide because the fucker is not wrong.

Ivy is Venom’s sister, who is also the best friend a guy could ever ask for.

She’s my little cupcake…

Along with Viper, the club's future Sergeant-at-Arms, making his dad Eagle proud, we all grew up together. We’re a tight-knit family, and we’d do anything for each other, including going to Juvie.

Fury knows this.

“Right, I am off,” my sister says, snapping me out of my head and I look at her in time to see Ivy holding her tightly. I smile sadly before our eyes connect, her blue ones shining with unshed tears, just like Mama’s.

Mama sniffles, puts her blonde curly hair behind her ear, and kisses her head as Ivy steps aside before Dad pulls her into him tightly. She whispers something to him, and he tenses but nods and I know she’s just warned him to keep it in his pants, making me chuckle slightly.

Marie finally looks my way, and I tilt my head. Her tears fall as I open my arms for her. And without a second thought she walks over to me with quick steps before stepping into my arms and I hug her tightly.

“Make sure he doesn’t hurt her again, Jax,” she whispers, and I mutter, “I’ll try, big sister. Don’t go falling in love and staying over there.”

She giggles and she pulls back as she wipes her wet cheeks before kissing mine, and I swallow back the emotion, knowing things are not going to be the same without her riding my ass to keep me out of trouble.

She moves to my right and hugs Fury, Venom, and then Viper before she pulls back and looks at all four of us with pride and a-fucking-gain I swallow the emotion that wants to fall.

“Tell Blade I’m proud of him,” she orders, “and he will make an amazing president when he comes home.”

We all nod and she turns taking her bag from Dad before looking at us one more time, taking us in with our prospect cuts on knowing next time she sees us we’ll be brothers and fuck me, my eyes tear up.

Giving me a soft smile, she walks past us toward the door and Venom mutters, “Fuck I’m going to miss her nosy ass.”

I chuckle but nod in agreement. My sister has a large, happy personality, and her absence will be noticed by all.

Mama grabs two more of Marie's bags off the floor and follows her out while Dad stays behind, knowing she wants a few more minutes with her daughter and Ivy bounces over to us. I lift my left arm, where she nuzzles into me, smiling with unshed tears in her eyes.

I smile sadly at her and confirm, “She’ll call you when she lands, cupcake,” and she nods, laying her head on my chest before Viper groans.

I look at him to see his eyes near the bar and follow his gaze. Disappointment fills me as Cherri, a clubwhore who trapped Randy, an amazing guy who works at Dark Angels Motors, thinking he was a prospect, walks over to my father, biting her red cherry lip.

The whore has nothing to do with her daughter, fuck, none of us brothers actually know what she looks like.

Randy decided to home school her knowing how hurtful kids can be and right now, her biological mother has her sights set on my fucking father while my mother is out of sight, the same bitch he fucked a few months ago hurting my mother when Cherri gloated.

Great.

“Your dad is a fucking idiot,” Venom mumbles from beside me and I nod knowing he is right.

Dad knows Mama won’t be outside for long and yet he’s playing with fire because as soon as Cherri is close by, he gently rubs his finger along the top of her tits with a sly grin and it takes fucking everything in me not to punch him.

He and the older generation are the reason why I’ll never fucking settle down. They’ve done nothing but show us younger generation that fidelity is non-existent.

My phone beeps, gaining my attention from the show he’s currently giving everyone, proving that brothers just can’t be faithful, and I grab my phone.

Mama – Come outside for a moment, just you xx.

I frown and mutter, “I’ll be right back.”
