Chapter Ten Dragon
Walking into my home carrying the infant seat with Liza and the boys going in before me.
By boys I mean all her damn fucking brothers came with us.
They wanted to see where their sister would be living.
They plan on staying here for about two weeks.
Which I mean is great for Liza, they are going to be staying at her old place.
Glitch told her that he was going to leave the house in her name and that way she can use it how she wants.
Maybe even rent it out. All I know is she and the boys are living with me from here on out.
I was not giving her up no matter how hard she was going to fight me on it.
I’m a fighter, I’ve taken hits. I can take whatever she plans to dish out because I deserve it.
Seeing her here with the boys in my home gives me a sense of hope that I haven’t had in awhile. Since mama died and I pushed away the other woman that means more to me than I ever thought possible. I walk in after everyone heads to my living room and I place Jaxon’s carseat down.
“Can I see Cane? Pwease ! I wants to hold ‘im.” Waylon says as he hovers behind me.
“Yeah buddy, go sit on the couch. I’ll bring him over there for you.”
He turns and runs towards the couch. I have a nice chunk of seating in my living room because I have such a huge family.
They usually aren’t all here at once though.
We usually congregate at mama and pop’s.
However, lately it has either been Terror’s or Lash’s house we have been at.
Liza is sitting on my recliner making herself at home and I can’t help, but smirk.
That used to be our favorite place to cuddle up whenever she was over here.
In fact, I have some real solid memories of her riding me in that chair.
Trying to focus on anything else, but my woman and her sweet as fuck pussy, I get back to unbuckling my baby boy so one of his big brothers can hold him.
“This is a nice set up you got here, Dragon. All you boys got places like this? I can’t imagine with a club as big as the one you’ve got that there is enough land for all of you to have houses on the property.” Wick or as Liza knows him, Beau asks.
Picking up Jaxon in my arms I turn back and head to the couch to sit with Waylon so he can hold Jaxon.
“Not all of us have property on the compound. I mean we have a decent enough amount of land so that most of us could build on the property if we wanted. My grandpa bought a few farms with a lot of acres when he and his buddies started the club.
All the council members have a house and property with it, except for Whip.”
I tell him as I sit down next to Waylon and put the pillow on his lap.
Making sure I am sitting next to him and holding Jaxon’s head.
“He did have a house, but he moved to Briarfield with his family so that’s available for any brother who wants it. We have a system where when a brother has been patched in for a couple of years, if they want to build a house on club land they bring it to the table.
They pay for their piece of the property and to have the house built. We basically pick which parcel of the land we want to build on and how much land we want. I made sure to have enough property to have the size house I wanted, the garage and workshop over a ways.
I also wanted to make sure that my house was close to my parents’ and Twister’s. The two of us don’t do a whole lot of shit without the other one.”
“I see that, but I know that’s a twin thing. We have a set of multiples in our family too. Triplets, Cade here is one of them.”
I smile over at Cade, “That’s awesome. Gotta love a set of multiples. I’ve got quite a few in my family. Some people think it is crazy the amount of babies my family has. I think Sophie and Lash are trying to singlehandedly make sure Devil’s Chaos has another generation.” I chuckle.
“They’re on like what, eight babies now? Your pops was telling us when he came by the clubhouse on his way to California. Just had a set of twins and then Peyton had the triplets. He had so many damn baby pictures with him and was showing them off like a proud papa. I’m sure it is difficult for him,
not being able to be here for Jaxon.”
I nod my head and look back at Waylon and Jaxon when I hear a phone click, the sound of taking a picture and I look up to see Liza holding her phone up giving a sly smile.
“Waylon, buddy, look up and smile for your mama.”
The both of us smile for her and she snaps a couple of more photos.
“It does suck not having him here, but I understand. He’s not only doing shit for the club, but he’s grieving in a way he couldn’t do with all of us around. He tries to be strong for the rest of us despite all the shitty ass decisions we make while putting his feelings on the back burner.
He needed this. Hopefully he gets the answers he needs and gets what he needs emotionally from his ride.”
The brothers nod, “Yeah when our pops died, it was hard on our mama. She still had a lot of us to take care of and Harlen took a lot on his shoulders.” Ridge or Ryder states.
I look over at Liza and she is currently curled up snuggling with Walker, who still hasn’t talked to me.
Liza looks like she’s sleeping and Walker doesn’t look like he is far from it.
I knew that there was a lot I didn’t know about my woman, fuck there still is so much more to learn.
I never knew she lost her father, in fact her whole family had been a mystery.
She made comments in passing from time to time that she came from a large family, but I never asked for anything else.
I guess that is what I get for being such a selfish prick.
Ridge follows my eye sight and smiles at his sister and nephew.
“We never thought we would have this. Still don’t know if we are risking shit by being here. She’s been on her own for so long and the little conversations we do have, have definitely not been enough. After everything that happened, losing our dad and what happened with her,
it felt like we lost her too. She might have still been here, but she was out on the other side of the country. We knew Glitch had her covered, but it wasn’t the same.” He then turns his head back to me.
“If you fuck this up again, I will be taking her back next time. I know there is still heat on her, but we do think she is safer here. But if she is hurt any more by you, I will keep her locked up so tight on Skullz land that you won’t see that boy again. Do you hear me?”
I get this man is trying to protect his sister, fuck if it were any of mine I would do the same.
Shit, I wish I knew all that went on between Parker and Doc or even shit with Peyton and Whip.
I would kick their asses into next fucking week, but it pisses me off this man is trying to tell me he is going to take my family away.
“You are not taking my family anywhere. I get it, I really fucking do, but I love that woman and these boys. Not a damn fucking man on this earth is going to take away what is mine.” I hissed at him.
“Alright, calm down fuckers. We should get her to bed. As well as the boys. Where do you want them, Dragon? You got rooms set up?”
I nod my head before I pick up Jaxon and walk him over to the bassinet I have in the living room.
“The boys have a room together upstairs next across the hall from the nursery if you want to bring them up there to help them get ready for bed. You’ll know it’s theirs. They got some bunk beds in it. She’s going to the master. I’ll take her. Do one of you want to stay with Jaxon?”
Sprocket or Trent agrees to stay with Jaxon as Wick, Ridge and Cade head upstairs to help the boys get ready for bed. I walk over to Liza and put one arm under her legs and the other under her arms as I pick her up bridal style.
She starts to wake up and I whisper to her, “It’s okay baby, go back to sleep. You’re gonna have to wake up in a couple hours for a feeding. I’m going to put you to bed, okay? I’ll bring the boy to you when he’s hungry.”
I’m surprised when she nods her head and wraps her arms around my neck as I walk her to my room.
