She just needed some time to calm down. Or so I kept telling myself as I showered and dressed. Just a little space so she could realise that the was taking everything the wrong way.
When she had she would be able to listen and we could discuss this mess like an adult.
The moment I stepped into the main room, I half expected her to jump up to greet me but she wasret anywhere to be seen.
“She’s in the kitchen.” Xander said without lifting his head. His face was completely blank. They all had those blank looks of their faces like they were
trying to let on that they had heard everything and were most definitely judging me.
“Thanks.” Turning on my heel I headed in that direction and pushed open the lichen door:
Now the clubhouse kitchen was a sprawling affair. With top of the range appliances and stainless steel cabinets. Usually it was the club bannes who prepared the food but today it was the wives and girlfriends that seemed to take up all the space. Their low chatter almost drowned out by the squeal of young kids running every which was
their legs.
One went barreling into my kne

and almost broke them, and I scooped him up until my arms.
“We will all help you.” One of the women said. “Lots of us are your size, we can find you clothes that are more appropriate than that man’s shirt or club
girls shit,”
“Yeah.” Another said. “He should never have tried to dress you up like one of them/ And when this is over you can stay with one of us.”
“Thank you.” Daisy’s voice was full of tears. And my heart twisted.
She wasn’t fine. In fact she sounded like she had been crying even harder since she had walked away. I much preferred her to be angry than upset.
“But I won’t be here long enough.” Daisy hiccuped.
“Where will you go?” Someone else asked softly. And it sounded like they all moved into a hug.
“I don’t know. But I can’t stay here with –
Daisy lifted her head and our eyes clashed. “Him.” She finished lamely,
“Will you excuse us ladies. I need to talk to”
Half a dozen women turned to me, anger mirrored on all of their faces as they stepped in front of Daisy like a wall.
“Will you play with me, Uncle Raven.”
I ruffled the boy’s hair. “Sure will. Just let me talk to my friend first ok. Here.” I passed the squirming boy to his mother. “Ladies?” I quirked up an eyebrow
when none of them moved.
They were a living wall between me and Daisy. Her protection and I hated

Love to speak to Daisy alone.
“She has nothing to say to you Raven. Telling her that’s it’s normal for men to get the woming stepped out of the line with her hands danched, “You depe treat the woman you care about like that.
I opened my mouth to tell her that her old man had been stepping out on her for years and closed it again. Srs already knew that and was fine withi
That was the whole point. She knew and she was fine.
Daisy didn’t and she wasn’t.
Daisy wanted the old fashioned type of love. She wanted obsession and devotion and I had made her believe that I was incapable of giving her either
That wasn’t true. I just needed her to listen to me long enough to realise that I was crazy for her.
“I’ll go and make up a room for you Daisy. And we will sort some clothes out as well.” One of them took a step forward.
“I’ll come with you.” Curled up around herself Daisy went to walk away with her.
“We need to talk.” I said again stepping into her path and lashing out to catch her upper arm.
“Please don’t touch me.” Her voice was flat. Absolutely no emotion in it. I needed her to scream or cry or just do anything that told me she wasn’t completely shut down.
Because the nothingness

her voice was killing me.
“I never,” she lifted her eyes to mine. “Want you to touch me ever again.”
Her tone was final and I did a double take.

My hand fell away.
I was my turn to sound emotionless but only because inside I was screaming. She didn’t want me to touch her and
and I could tell she meant every word.
I’d messed things up so badly
and now she couldn’t even stand to look at me.
“If
you
make a list of anything she needs I’ll pay for it.”
All of their eyes narrowed because clearly again it had been the wrong thing to say.
“I don’t want anything from you Raven.” Daisy said flatly. The group swarmed around her and she disappeared from my sight.
“Come on lovely.” One of the women said as they hustled her away from me. “We will get you settled somewhere and look after you. You don’t need him. girl as beautiful and sweet as you don’t need a man like Raven.”
“Yeah.” Another quipped. “You can do so much better. You deserve so much better.”
I slumped back against the cabinets. Pinching the skin between my eyebrows as a throbbing headache formed.
I’d always known that I wasn’t the most liked member of the Lost Reapers but I’d never realise how much so many of them hated me.
