Chapter Seven
Tease
TODAY HAS BEEN one for the records. Jess has been bitching about everything and brought her shit to the clubhouse thinking we’d deal with her ass.
She was kicked out in less than five minutes by Rooster and told never to come back until she learns how to act right.
That was after she tried to get me to make her my ol’ lady with threats Omen and Knuckles overheard.
She’s getting desperate to become my woman and no matter how many times or different ways I tell her, she refuses to accept it’s never gonna happen.
Then, I went up to take a shower and walked out to find Foxy naked in my bed.
She’s another one desperate to become an ol’ lady and doesn’t understand it won’t ever happen.
I kicked her out of my room and made sure she knows everyone will hear about her latest stunt in church.
Foxy is about to be kicked out of the club and it still doesn’t stop her from being desperate enough to do everything she can think of to land one of us.
“Tease, you hangin’ out tonight?” Knuckles asks me as we make our way out of church.
“I don’t know yet. I’m kind of tired of dealin’ with the girls bein’ all over me when I walk through the door.
It would be nice to sit down and have a drink without them takin’ that as a sign I’m down to fuck,” I tell my cousin as I grab my phone and the knife my dad gave me on my sixteenth birthday.
“Glad I don’t have to deal with that shit as much as I did before.
These women are becomin’ a real problem.
I’d like to say I can’t believe Foxy was naked in your bed, but that would be a lie.
Rooster and Marie are gonna talk to her and the rest of the girls tonight.
Maybe they’ll do it when we’re all here so they realize none of us want their hands on us for any reason,” Knuckles responds as we make our way to the bar and take a seat at the end.
Foxy is across the room cleaning the tables with a scowl on her face.
Marie already punished her after I told her what happened.
She saw me storming through the clubhouse and stopped me so I could tell her what was wrong.
It didn’t take much for her to connect the dots when she saw Foxy rushing up to me.
Until Rooster and her talk about the situation, Foxy is on probation and not allowed to drink or be with the men.
That’s a punishment none of the girls can stand because everything they care about is taken from them.
The Prospect behind the bar hands Knuckles and I each a bottle of our preferred beer along with a shot each.
It’s our customary drink after church. Most of the guys are lining the bar to grab their own drinks before either settling in on the stools or finding a table.
Several conversations are taking place among the men as music plays in the common room and the girls remain on the couch where they’ve been sitting.
None of them are making any moves toward the guys after Marie went off on Foxy before our meeting.
They know better than to be out of line when Marie is here.
Knowing she’s already pissed off at one of the Slayer Slits, they’ll be on their best behavior tonight so they don’t have to face her wrath.
It’s the one time we ever get peace from them.
“How are things with Sheridan?” Knuckles asks me as my dad walks in the clubhouse and heads straight for us.
“The same as they have been. She seems to be doin’ a little better and has been able to keep more food down from what I heard her tell Dr. Matthews.
Our boy looked good on the ultrasound and was movin’ around like crazy.
She’ll have one every time we go in until she goes into labor.
Dr. Matthews doesn’t want to take any chances with either one of them considerin’ how sick she’s been,” I answer as my dad sits down next to me and taps the bar with his knuckles so the Prospect knows he wants a drink.
“Good to hear everythin’ is good with my grandson,” he says, turning to look at me as I down my shot and set the glass back on the bar. “You talkin’ to Sheridan yet?”
“No. I don’t know if I can forgive her for the lie,” I state as Marie and Rooster enter the common room and take a seat with Omen.
“She didn’t fuckin’ lie to you, Son,” my dad explodes, anger filling his face as he turns more to face me.
“That girl wouldn’t know how to lie if her life depended on it.
She made do with the situation she was in and you heard yourself that the antibiotics she had taken messed with her birth control.
I don’t fuckin’ blame her for not seekin’ you out to tell you about the baby.
Especially when you gave her the cold shoulder like you did after fuckin’ her. ”
“How do you even know all about that?” I question my dad, confusion filling me as I look at him before turning to face Knuckles.
“Don’t look at me. I haven’t told your dad anythin’,” he says, putting his hands up in surrender as he starts laughing because my dad always seems to find out things none of us tell him.
“It doesn’t matter how I know that part you conveniently left out.
All I know is Sheridan is a good girl and you’re treatin’ her like shit for no fuckin’ reason.
Your mom is goin’ to see her tomorrow and I hope she lets us in.
If she doesn’t, you’re gonna be the one dealin’ with your mom.
She won’t be happy and I’ll kick your fuckin’ ass if I’m not allowed in my grandson’s life,” my dad states and I know he means every word.
My mom is the sweetest woman in the world until you piss her off.
And it takes a lot to get her to the point she explodes.
I’ve only seen it a handful of times in my life and it’s not a pretty sight.
If Sheridan doesn’t let her be part of our son’s life, my mom will beat my ass, yell at me until she loses her voice, and make me feel lower than shit before she gives me the silent treatment.
I won’t be allowed in their house and she’ll get all the women in the club to turn against me with her.
Not because she’ll say anything to them, but because they’ll see her ignoring me and will follow her lead.
It’s happened once in the past and I had to spend two weeks apologizing to her before she’d let me back in the house and started talking to me again.
It's a good thing I have a room at the clubhouse or I would have been out on the street, sleeping in my truck.
“I’ve got something to say,” Marie calls out, standing from her seat and facing the room.
“It’s come to our attention that you girls are overstepping and trying to force yourselves on the men here.
Including the men who are taken. You’re not cleaning or doing anything else you’re supposed to be doing.
This doesn’t just include the ones in this room right now either.
I know at least one more is trying to use threats to get her way with one of the men in the club.
This shit is pathetic and not wanted by any man in this club.
I’m ready to kick all of your asses out and never let you back in the clubhouse for any reason.
“Foxy, until further notice, you’re on probation.
This is your last warning. If I have to speak to you again, you’re out bad and no one here will ever talk to you again.
You won’t be allowed in any of the club’s businesses and will end up being run out of town before you can make it to the end of the road.
Between you and Jess, I’ve fucking had it.
The guys don’t want anything to do with any of you because of your behavior lately.
We all understand a lot of them have started to settle down and claimed an ol’ lady.
That doesn’t give any of you the right to try to trap them, trick them, or any other desperate idea you come up with to get one of them to claim you.
Newsflash! None of them will ever claim you as an ol’ lady.
They don’t want someone everyone here has fucked or had suck their dick.
You’re club girls and should know your damn place by now. ”
The common room is so quiet you could hear a pin drop right now. I’m not sure who turned off the music, but even that’s silent. Foxy stands from the table she was cleaning and glares at Marie.
“Are you fucking kidding me right now? All this because I was in Tease’s bed waiting for him? I know he wanted me there and there’s no point in not giving him what he wants,” Foxy screams, not realizing how close she truly is to having the shit beat out of her by Marie.
“That’s a lie and everyone here knows it.
Tease hasn’t touched a single one of you in weeks.
If he wanted you in his bed, he wouldn’t have come in the common room before church as pissed as he was while you chased him and cried, Foxy.
You’re a vile woman and none of the guys here have touched you unless they were desperate and didn’t want to go find a piece of strange outside the clubhouse.
You know your time here is coming to an end and are doing anything you can think of to stay,” Marie says, her voice cold and hard and she steps toward Foxy and the other girls even remotely close to the club girl takes several steps back.
“Regardless of if I’ve touched any of the other girls here or not,” I begin, facing Marie for a minute because she called me out like that.
“I never once asked you to enter my room for any reason and I never would. Foxy, I let you suck my cock one time and that’s it.
I’ve never fucked you or gave you any indication I would fuck you.
You’re used goods and I have standards to who I let in my bed.
You don’t come close to fittin’ the criteria. ”
“You’re lying!” Foxy screams, rage filling her face as she throws the glass she was holding in my direction knowing it won’t come close to me.
