21. Incubus #2
“No, don’t be sorry. Just tell me which motherfuckin’ brother of mine took advantage of you and I’ll kill him with my bare hands, swear to Christ.”
Maeve starts shaking her head violently before she pulls her hand away. When she jumps up to leave I follow her, standing in front of the door. I can feel my face getting tighter and tighter.
“What the fuck, Maeve? Don’t get pissed at me because you thought it was a good idea not only to fuck one of my brothers but do it without protection.
Son of a bitch, half of them have been with every club whore in the building.
Might want to get tested for a sexually transmitted disease.
You never know because it depends on who you slept with. Now tell me.”
I grab her by the shoulders and, yeah, once again a woman catches me off guard and knees me in my family jewels.
Holy fuck, I go down to my knees, hence blocking her way out.
So she turns, running into our downstairs bathroom and I hear the lock.
Well, that went well, I think as I carefully try to get up.
Very slowly I manage to get to the kitchen and grab a huge bag of frozen peas.
After I sit my ass down, I carefully place the frozen bag between my legs and let out a huge painful sigh.
I sit here trying to figure out which of my brothers is crazy enough to take a chance with my sister, knowing how protective I am.
And each and every one has spent time with me in my wet rooms, so can you say fuckin’ crazy?
Don’t know how much time has gone by since my balls were smushed into my throat, when the front door swings open and Stella, Isabella, Girlie, and Millie come stomping in with Girlie slamming the door shut.
All of them, including my baby girl, cross their arms under their boobs, well, Isabella across her chest and glare at me.
I don’t say a word and neither do the women, so after a few minutes Isabella turns to them and cracks me up.
“Mamma, Aunties, how long are we supposed to play mad at Papà? I have to go to the bathroom and need my nighttime snack, so are we done yet?”
I see the anger slowly leave each of their faces as they listen and watch our Bella.
Well, thank God for her, I think to myself.
As she goes to use the bathroom, I let her know someone is in there and to go use hers.
Once she’s gone The Three Musketeers approach me, anger radiating off the group.
Now what did I do, isn’t one female mad at me enough?
Then it clicks, I turn and don’t see Maeve’s purse.
My baby sister ratted me out to her girl crew.
Shit, one mad is bad enough but four and a quarter—because Isabella isn’t even a half yet—is too fucking much.
I stare them out until my lovely wife adds her two cents.
“Y’all, unfortunately, I know he can stare at us all night, sleep with his eyes open, and start up again. Think it was part of their training when Cobalt and Cullen went into the special services. We might need to regroup. Wait, Cullen, where’s Maeve at?”
As I go to tell Stella she locked herself in the bathroom, Maeve comes walking down the hall.
Just looking at her my heart breaks. She not only cried but from the look on her face, bawled.
Her eyes are swollen, cheeks red, and she looks just miserable.
When I jump up all three women stand in front of me like they can block me.
I pick the only one I feel comfortable with lifting and move Stella out of the way and go to Maeve, hands out.
She looks at me, then moves in, face-planting into my chest. When her shoulders start shaking I wrap her up and hold on tightly.
This is my baby sister, does it really matter who knocked her up?
For Christ’s sake, I’m such an asshole. I mean, she lost her husband and now has to raise her kids alone.
Who am I to judge because she needed some companionship?
I mean, every time Stella and I took a break I wasn’t a goddamn priest. I mean fuck, when Girlie first showed up she got a first-eye view of me taking two of the club sluts into my room at the clubhouse.
That was right before we decided that our marriage was more important, and the thought of being only with one woman kinda freaked me out, but Stella is for sure worth it.
Yeah, I’ve been not only a dog but a jagoff too, and no one got in my face.
Gotta quit being such a jerk when it comes to men and women.
All of these thoughts are going through my mind when I hear loud voices at the front door, right before it jerks open.
I see Ghost first with a bloody lip, followed by Nickel, whose nose is definitely broken, and finally Cobalt, who looks like someone punched him in the jaw.
When he goes to slam the door, in walks Mammoth and Psycho along with Ajax, Dreamer, Rocket, Riffraff, Onyx, Venom, and finally Holy Joe.
Fuck, just about every single brother is here.
What in the fuck is going on? I hear something behind me and turn to see Maeve waving her arms back and forth.
Looking from her to my brothers and back, I have no idea whose attention she’s trying to get.
Then she screams to all of them, I think.
“No, don’t say anything, I didn’t tell Cullen who, so keep your mouth shut.
I will say this once and only once, then this subject is closed.
Yeah, I got a little crazy and as we women say, let my hair down.
Well, not just once, who knew a man could go that long?
Shit, I’m getting off the subject. Yeah, it was fun and I really like you, but after I told you about the baby and what you said, no worries.
This baby is mine and mine alone. You’re off the hook.
” With that she runs down the hall with every single woman running after her.
There is total confusion in the room until Cobalt whistles and gets everyone’s attention.
“Brother, what the hell is going on? And Maeve is pregnant? Holy shit, she’s gotta raise that child without her husband, that totally sucks.”
I stare at him and it dawns on me he’s been drinking. I can always tell because he can’t stand still when he’s drunk. Now I’m curious as to why he would be drinking that much ’cause Cobalt ain’t a huge drinker. Well, that’s another story for another day.
“Duh, brother, big news if you didn’t catch it. She is pregnant and her dead husband ain’t the baby’s father. It’s one of those goddamn, motherfuckin’ dead men walking. Anyone of you bastards want to step up and to my face tell me you been banging my baby sister?”
Cobalt’s face goes white then turns a deep pink as he gazes at all of the brothers standing around here and there.
One thing I’m sure of, it’s one of them because she pointed that way in general, so it leaves out all of the brothers not present.
Thank God, my list is smaller now. When Cobalt lets out a scream, just about everyone jumps.
Then he points at the brothers, screaming at the top of his lungs.
“Which one of you motherfuckers broke our brother code? Y’all know you never touch a brother’s family unless it has been discussed prior.
What the fuck is wrong with you? And if you are gonna fuck a brother’s sister, why in the hell would you pick the craziest motherfucker’s sister after all you know that he’s capable of?
Now, as your president, I want the asshole who decided it was okay to walk on the wild side and, worse, go behind Incubus’s back to take advantage of his sister.
And I don’t care how you’ve convinced yourself otherwise.
Maeve has been to hell and back. She is just starting to be her old self, so congratulations on whoever messed with her sanity on top of everything else. Well, assholes, I’m waiting.”
I’m watching all of them and almost pass out when Ghost steps forward.
Just as I go to grab him, Nickel also steps forward and I stumble back.
When Venom and Onyx step up too, I get what they are doing.
Everyone eventually steps forward, even Holy Joe, and I can’t help the snicker that comes from my mouth.
Yeah, right down to the last breath, a King of Anarchy always covers their brother’s back.
I look back at Cobalt, who shakes his head, then walks to my kitchen, opens the fridge, pulls out a beer, opens it, and chugs it.
I have no idea what’s going on with him but, damn, I plan to find out.
The only thing I’m thankful for is that my life is going strong with Stella and Isabella.
I can’t ask for anything else, though I’m thinking in the future we will be adding a dog and cat for our baby girl.
This shit is gonna have to work itself out ’cause my main focus is my two precious girls. Always and forever.
