Chapter 16-2
“That bitch isn’t my girlfriend. She wanted to be and was trying to blackmail me. What you heard that night was us trying to get information from her by saying anything that we had to, to get her to talk. I hated saying that shit that I said, because you are the love of my life. You are the ONLY woman that I want or will
ever want. Hell, you left me, and I could’ve had my choice of women to warm my bed, but I didn’t. I’ve not
been with another woman since the last time that I was with you. I don’t want anyone but you. And that’s
how it will always be. You’re mine, and I’m yours. And this shit with your mom and fuckface, we will talk
about later. I’ll fucking deal with them and you and our son will be safe from them. I love you, Effie, and I
have missed you like crazy. And I won’t let anyone ever hurt either of you,” he said.
I was about to answer him when my phone went off. When I picked it up to look down at it, I was surprised
to see a text from Tatum on there. I was confused because usually he doesn’t message me until closer to
lunchtime. So I picked it up to look at it.
Tatum – Hey sweetheart, all hell has broken loose here today. Colton had to go pick up parts, and he took our money to the bank this morning. We were going to come get you at lunch and take you, but we had an
issue come up. I’ll explain more later. If you have to, call Zeus to come take you to the bank. You know that he will. If you need me, call me. Otherwise, well see you tonight. Well, bring Chinese food. Love you, sister.
I was frowning at my phone and biting my lip, hoping that everything was ok, when Leandro spoke. “Is everything ok, baby?” he asked me. “I don’t know. My friends, who usually take me to the bank at lunchtime, had something come up. I don’t know what, he said that they’d explain when they came over tonight. They don’t like me going to the bank alone. So he wanted me to call my IT guy. He’s with the local MC, and he takes me when my friends are not able to,” I told him.
“Who is the MC guy? I know a bunch of them with the local MC. My dad had finally found his long–lost kid. He has a daughter, and she’s engaged to four of the guys. And she has a son with them as well. He’s just a couple of months old,” he said, “His name is Zeus. I’ve known him since I moved here. He did all of the security systems on this place and put in the alarm and cameras. He knows that I don’t have any family here, and he and his mom check in on me from time to time. They were even at the hospital when I had
Veer. The woman in the club, as well as some others, also threw me a baby shower. They are all good
people,” I said.
