Epilogue
Fox
Approximately three months later
“What on earth are ginger chews?” I mutter as I look over the list that Tressa gave me. “And why the fuck am I running to get these things when both women have mates?”
Sighing, I rub my hands across my face as I read the rest of the list. Since Popeye managed to find out who the gems belonged to, Stealth and Chaos went on a run to hand deliver them. I would’ve been perfectly fine with mailing them, but the two of them thought it would be better to meet with the owner and let them know that they needed to find another town to run their shit through, Zephyr Hills was closed to those activities.
“Guess I’m heading into town. Hopefully this shit will fit in my saddlebags. It’s too fucking nice outside to be caught in a cage. Of course, if it ends up being too much, I’ll just call a prospect.”
Happy with my plan of action, I head out to my bike, strap on my helmet, then sling my leg over until I’m sitting comfortably on my seat. Hitting the start button, I grin as the unmistakable rumble starts then increases when I twist the throttle.

“Well, this isn’t too bad,” I mutter while walking down the sidewalk toward an apothecary store. Don’t even know what the fuck that is, but when I asked the waitress about some of the items on the list, she told me I could find them at Vivi’s. Apparently, the owner is an herbalist, and she carries the shit Tressa and Nini swear they have to have to survive their pregnancies.
When I find the shop, I open the door and step inside, only to be hit with the most delicious smell to ever cross my nose.
Calla lilies and mint.
I’m barely inside when I hear a female ask, “Can I help you find something?”
Turning, I see a tall, striking woman standing there and realize the scent is coming from her, especially since it grows stronger the closer I get.
“Hi, my name is Fox and I’m looking for a few things. The waitress at the diner says you carry them,” I reply, handing her the list.
“Vivienne Lafontaine. If you’ll follow me, I have them over here.”
“Mate, I’ll follow you anywhere,” I think to myself.
Fox and Vivi’s story will be in “The President” which will release some time in 2024!
