Grady is leaned back in his chair at the head of table, eyeing me like I’m the shit on his shoe as I stroll in an hour late to the meeting.
“Nice of you to grace us with your presence.” Grady says as I walk over and pull out the chair next to him, the last one available.
“Welcome” I say and he glares at me and sniffs.
“Youre shit is getting old Tiny” Grady says and I lean back in the chair and kick up my feet. The rest of the room just shaking their head at me. Grady was the closest thing I had to a father, after mine died when I was fourteen. This club, or as the little sex kitten currently handcuffed in my apartment would say “gang of thugs” , was the closest thing I had to a family.
“Get your god damn feet off the table, boy” he scowls and I give him a little smile and slowly remove my feet from the table and sit up and he reaches over and pulls off my beanie and smacks it down on the table.
“You little disrespectful shit” he mutters and I chuckle.
“Anyways , now that princess is here we can get started” Grady says and the others chuckle. Except for Steele. His son, who is glaring at me like he knows I’ve got his girl at my place. I just ignore him because I know Bryce wouldn’t rat me out. At least not yet. Plus if he knew where she was he would be there , dragging her ass back home.
The meeting lasts an hour before all items of discussion are covered. Except for one.
“Now, as for my wife’s daughter, does anyone know where that hot little piece of ass is?” He asks and I bite my tongue. Because yeah, not only did Steele have a thing for her. Grady wasn’t shy about talking about her like he wanted a piece of her too. At least not in front of his wife.
“Haven’t seen her since the gathering.” Arrow says.
Bryce catches my eyes and dips his head at me. Glaring. And I know he’s waiting for me to admit i have her.
Silence around the table. Nobody answers. Steele is glaring at me. Waiting. I suck my teeth and shrug.
“I know where she is. She’s safe.” I say and Steele snarls.
“Fuckin knew it” he growls.
“Yes. She did leave with you. At least that’s what the cameras show.” Grady says.
“Where did you bring her?” Grady asks.
“Away from him.” I nod to Steele. Who pushes his hands on the table to stand and lean over the table.
“Sit the fuck down” Grady says and shoves Steele , which barely budges him. But he sits back down.
“Care to explain to me why you think she needs to be removed from MY home, when she’s MY daughter? With speaking to ME about it?” Grady asks.
“Because she’s was scared. And your son was smacking her around.” I say. Glaring right back at Steele.
“She’s his to do with as he pleases. I trust my son to keep her in line.” Grady says and I clench my jaw as Steele gives a smug grin and lifts his chin.
“I must say, you all disappoint me. Put a little fucking pussy in the mix and you all lose your fucking minds.” Grady shakes his head.
He looks to his son Steele. And then to Harrison who fucked her in the bathroom the night of the gathering and who also went against Steele in front of all of us. He was currently sporting a healing black eye and busted brow and lip for it. Courtesy of Grady who already handled his “disrespect” for his son who was considered our groups leader.
“She’s a fucking woman. A god damn girl. Get your shit together. All of you. If you can’t fuck the little brat and keep your minds right then I’ll start cutting off your fucking dicks.” Grady growls and Steele growls at his father.
“I’m not the one sticking my dick in her.” Steele growls.
“Don’t think I’m a fucking fool son. You’ve all got your cocks lined up for a piece of her. Harrison was the first to put her to use. Not his fault you waited too damn long to make her useful.” Grady says and grit my teeth.
Grady looks to Harrison.
“How does she fuck?” He smirks. “Can we use her?” He asks and I swallow. Because I know what he means. He doesn’t mean use her as in fuck her ourselves. He wants her to make him money. Use her pussy in exchange for other things.
“She had quite the reputation before she came here.” Grady says.
“We’re not fucking using her.” Steele growls.
His father huffs and looks at him. Studying him.
“Then you little fucks better learn to deal with her and the trouble she’s causing between you. Or I’ll put her on the fucking market. And this is the last time I’ll say it.” He warns us all.
“Bring her home.” Grady says to me.
I glare at him.
“She doesn’t want to come home.” I say.
“Do I look like a give a fuck what the little brat wants? Don’t fucking disobey me, me. Bring her home. By the end of the day. Or I’ll find her and sell her ass.” Grady says and clench my teeth and give a nod.
“You playing house with her?” Steele smirks. I glare at him and he lets out a laugh.
“Enough.” Grady sighs.
“ she’s not Claire.” He smirks and my jaw clenches. My hands turning into fists.
“Though she’ll use you. Just like she did. Fuckin pathetic” he laughs and shakes his head.
“What a waste of a fucking man. You fuck a cunt one time and fall in love.” He laughs and I’m breathing harder. My hands sliding to the edge of the table gripping it.
“Heard Claire was pregnant.” Steels smirks.
“Who the fuck is Claire?” Arrow mutters.
“His little girlfriend. A teacher that he fell in love with.” Steele smirks. “Think I didn’t know? I know fuckin everything. And I also know that baby isn’t her husbands.” He smirks and my eyes go wide. All that wine. She wasn’t pregnant at all. Evie had exposed her lies to me.
“Dont worry. It’s not yours either.” He smirks and my brows pinch.
“Yeah. Claire has a taste for devils son’s dick. Not just yours.” He smirks.
“You son of a -“ I’m already halfway across the table as Grady stands and grabs me.
“Alright! Enough!” He yells as the rest of the guys get up and hold me back. Some of them going to Steele. Who is just sitting there lifting his hands behind his head with a smile on his face.
“Even knowing my seed had your bitch pregnant , bet you’d still wanna play step daddy to him, don’t ya? Pathetic fuck” he says and I lunge again , Grady telling him to shut his fucking mouth.
“Maybe I’ll put a baby in Evie too. Knock up all your little whores you like to play house with” he laughs.
“Make sure to bring her home for me , think I’ll start working on her tonight” he smirks and I snarl.
“Youre all fucking children, get it the fuck together! And YOU.” He yells at Steele.
“Your job is to keep your group together. Not burn it the fuck down. Don’t make me reconsider who the fuck is in charge, spite and pettiness is reserved for whores. Not grown fucking men. Grow the fuck up” Grady growls and slaps the back of Steeles head and Steele huffs and stands and smirks at me.
“See you later….brother.” Steele says and then walks out. Pulling out his phone and turning with a smile as he lifts it to her ear.
“Hey Claire, want some dick babe?” He asks. And I realize it’s on speaker when I hear her voice.
“He’s home right now. Can you come later?” She says and I feel a knot in my throat.
Steele has always hated me. Secretly. Or I guess not so secretly. He hated that I Grady treated me like his son. Probably more so than he did Steele. I wasn’t a fucking psychologist. But I knew what he was doing. I “took”
His father’s attention from her , so he was taking what was mine.
But what he didn’t know was I hadn’t loved Claire for a long time now. I had feeling for her, sure, but I’d known for awhile now that she never loved me. Just manipulated a young boy who wanted love.
“Sure babe” Steele grins “wear that little thing I like”
