I looked up at him.

Even at six feet tall, Clean towered over me. He was tall and built like a football player. I had seen him break chest cavities with single punches, the strongest man I had ever fucking encountered.

He looked me up and down slowly then turned his back to me to address the four other members. “What’s going on here? Y’all trying to dance or something.”

“Fuck that shit, this bastard needs to be in the fucking ground. Get the hell out of the way.” Vale said trying to push past Clean.

“Nah buddy, I don’t think that is your call. Don’t you got some pussy to get or something? You don’t want to mess up a good party, If you could fuck off that would be great.” Clean said his signature smile sprawled across his face.

“How can you protect him?” The one named Ripper screamed out.

Clean grabbed the man by his kutte and lifted him clear off the floor, the man’s strength was incredible, “Ok, play times over, I told you once. Back the fuck off, you don’t tell me who the fuck I should protect.”

I inhaled and hung my head down, nothing had changed, Clean would protect me with his life. Always had been that way. The loyalty of that man undeniable. I looked up to his back expecting to see the President patch on his kutte but instead it said VP. I didn’t understand. There was no one else to take the spot over. Archer?

He never wanted it before, why now would he take it.

Ryder? He didn’t want it either.

Who the fuck else was there…

“Everyone, go about your business.” A voice boomed out from behind the crowd.

It felt like someone had sucked every ounce of oxygen out of the room. I pushed Clean aside and the other men. It was impossible.

“No… no.”

The people in the room parted and I had a clear line of sight to the new president of the Wings of Diablo MC Club.

I stood there speechless; my mouth wide open in shock as a dead man walked over to me.

Wire was alive.

Chapter 13

“Holy shit, what the fuck!” I smiled at the man who was looking at me like I was a piece of shit. “I thought you were dead. Brother..”

My head snapped back with amazing force.

“Alex!” Mikki screamed out, and I tried to look over to where she was. Keeley was holding on to the baby, trying to keep her from seeing what was happening. Daria was holding onto Vida, Maven and Cherry were holding onto Mikki.

I watched as Wire bent down to the floor and swung with everything he had, punching me over and over in the face. I heard bones breaking and could feel blood pouring down my throat trying to choke me. When he was out of breath he looked over to Clean and even I could see the hesitation in his eyes but he came over to me and swung with everything that he had. After a few hits, Ryder came over and continued to beat on me.

I had abandoned the family, I had this beatdown coming. Every single patched member was allowed to hit me. I don’t know if I passed out, I know it felt like an hour of them hitting me. I don’t remember when it was done. My eyes were swollen shut, I was breathing blood bubbles and I was missing a few teeth. My ribs felt like gravel but instead of leaving me there on the ground my brothers gathered around me. Clean and Archer held me up and Wire wrapped his arms around me as lightly as he could.

“Welcome home, brother.” He stepped back as they basically dragged me to one of the upstairs rooms.

I opened my eyes, at least one of them. The other was still pretty fucked up. I kept that one closed and tried to look from one eye.

“Mikki?” I called out and she answered immediately.

“I hate them all! Look at what they did to you!” She ran her hands lightly over my face.

I chuckled, the jagged tooth in the back of my mouth cutting into my cheeks. “Nah babe, this is love. They could have shot me where I stood.”

“How the hell can you say that, they almost beat you to death.”

I endured the pain and opened both of my eyes. I couldn’t see her too good but I wanted her to see me.

“Mikki, they could have killed me. Tell me since I have been here sleep, have they checked on me? Medical care? Made sure I was still breathing?”

She looked down, “Yeah, everyone seems to be happy that you are here.” She let a breath out, “The women tried to get us to come out but I didn’t want to leave you.”

“Ah, yeah, the wives. They are good people. I don’t know everyone here but I promise you as long as Wire, Archer and Clean are around you are safe. They are good men.”

“Ok, I believe you.”

“How long have I been out?”

“It’s been 3 days, they really bruised you up bad, but amazingly nothing was broken but a few ribs.”

“No shit? It feels like I got run over by a fucking truck.”

“You look like you got run over by a truck.” Vida said from the corner that she sat in playing with Angel.

“You ok Alex?” The little girl asked a bit of fear in her voice.

“Yeah, babygirl, I’m fine. I did a bad thing, I needed to be disciplined.”

“Ok Alex, if you say so.” She shrugged and went back to playing with Vida.

“I need to go and make this right, or at least see where I stand with Wire.” I tried to get up but the ache in my back almost forced me right back down.

“No way, you can’t get up now.”

I grabbed her head and kissed her softly, I wanted some more of her sunlight. “Mikki, I am fine. Things are getting better now. They won’t hurt me anymore.”

She kept
