“Anything for you.”

“I don’t say it a lot, but I love you Mischief. You make me real proud and I couldn’t ask for a better daughter.”

“Don’t let Jazzy hear you say that.”

He laughs. “I’ll say the same to her later.”

“Traitor.”

He smirks and then goes serious again, he touches my cheek.

“Seriously though, thank you.”

I swallow. “Stop it, if
I cry it will ruin all this make-up.”

He pulls me close again. “You don’t need it anyway.”

“Was that a compliment, big bad biker?”

“I think so kid, I think so.”

“May I have the next dance?”

I look over and see Jazzy, I smile and let Chief go.

“Of course.”

He kisses my cheek and winks at me, then pulls Jazzy into his arms and begins dancing with her. I walk back to the table and sit down, watching everyone and wondering if I am right, is my happily ever after soon?

CHAPTER TWENTY SEVEN

 

“I would like to make an announcement.” Chief says, standing.

I look over at him
and smile. My Mother beams and looks up at him with that beautiful look of love.

“So you all know
I am the president of the Phoenix Motorcycle club, since I was a boy that has been my life. That was until I lost the woman I loved with all my heart, and nearly lost my daughter. My boys are my life, but my girls…they are my everything. So, I stand here today with great honor and pride, to say I am stepping down.”

A gasp travels through the crowd.

“I am giving my position over to Bill, get up here Buddy.”

Bill stands looking shocked, he walks over and shakes Chief’s hand,
and then they hug.

“This man has been by my side since I started, and he was by Max’s side all those y
ears ago. He deserves this club more than I do.”

“Aw shit buddy, I’m fucking shattered.” Bill says, patting Chief on the back.

“I’ll ride with ya, but I will no longer fight with ya.”

The men cheer and I glance at my
Mother who is staring, tears thunder down her beautiful cheeks. I know why, because she has been waiting for this Moment her entire life. Everything she has ever done has been for me or Chief and no one has ever given anything up for her.

“To Chief!”
Bill roars.

The men raise their glasses.

“And to Max, we miss you every day buddy.” Chief yells and winks at Trav.

I look over and Trav is smiling
raising his glass. I know he misses his Dad, I know he wonders about his Mom, and one day I hope he finds his answers. We all raise our glasses and then Chief leans down to scoop my Mom’s face into his hands; he kisses her with passion and determination.

“I should have given it up back
then, and I didn’t; you are my soul Angel.”

I smile and swallow, so proud of what my
Father has done for her. Nothing will ever mean more to her than this moment. A hand swipes over my forehead and I turn to see Trav standing behind me. He offers me his hand and I stand, following him outside. He takes me out and we stop under a beautiful garden gazebo, lit up with blue and green lights. I peer around and then meet Trav’s gaze.

“Would you dance with me, beautiful?”

I smile and step into his arms, wrapping myself around him.

“Travis Phoenix, I didn’t know you could be romantic.”

“Mischief, I can be anything you want me to be.”

“Oh? What if I want a sexy hot cowboy?”

“If you want me to be a cowboy, girl, I will be your cowboy.”

“Now that’s love.”

He grins down at me and his lips smooth across my brow.

“Mischief, seeing you out there today made me realize how damned lucky I am.”

“I can say the same.” I whisper, running my fingers over his cheek.

“You know, this reminds me of the first time we kissed?”

I flush. “So it does.”

“Do you reckon we can make it that mind blowing again?”

“Oh Trav,” I say, gripping his shirt. “I know we can.”

I grip his face and pull his lips down over mine, with a moan; he tangles his hands into my hair. Our bodies are still moving together, our hips rocking lightly to the music. Travis slides his tongue out and traces it along my lips, and then he plunges back into my mouth. We deepen the kiss until we are a tangle of arms, legs and tongues. When I pull back, I can feel my own lips swelling with delight.

“Wow…” I murmur, tracing a line down his chest.

“It’s always wow with you Mischief; it has never been anything but.”

EIGHT MONTH’S LATER

“How are you feeling, my beautiful sea lion?” Chief asks, handing me a glass of water.

“That is not funny.”

“You look so beautiful all round and puffy. I remember your Momma looking just like that.”

I snort. “She would have made it look damn good.”

He grins and nods, then strokes my cheek.

“You make it look damn good too kid.”

“Now you are just being nice, it’s ok Daddy, I know you are having secret fantasies about dropping me on the ground and watching me try to get back up.”

He snorts and laughs.

“Maybe one or two.”

I pat my swollen, overdue belly. I wish this baby would just get out.

“Violet!”

I sit up to see Trav coming in with Amber. He grins at me and winks.

“Hi there princess!” I say, hugging her when she leaps onto the couch beside me.


Daddy said you are going to have the baby soon.”

“I hope so honey.”

“I can’t wait; I hope it’s a little sister.”

“Me too
.” I say quietly.

“We don’t want
any more boys!” She says, wrinkling her nose.

“No we don’t, you are so right about that.”

“Hey, come on now,” Trav laughs. “We aren’t all bad.”

“No Phoenix, you go alright.”

“Hey, what about me?” Chief grumbles.


Granddad, I think you are the best.”

Amber took to calling Chief G
randdad about six months ago and I still think it’s hilarious. He sulked for a good day when she first started, but now he loves it.

“Yeah see, someone loves the old fella.”

She runs over and he picks her up, putting her on his hips.

“Say kid, what do you say we go and get Violet some ice cream. She has been
whining at me all morning for it.”

“Oh yes, can I get bubblegum?”

“You can get whatever you want kiddo, whatever you want.”

“You are a sucker Chief.” Travis laughs.

“Yeah, can’t help it.”

“You better bring me back the best ice cream old man.” I wink.

“I’ll bring you back a big, black boot to put up your ass.”

“Grand
dad!” Amber gasps.

I laugh and then groan as my belly cramps. Travis sits down beside me, and grips my feet, running his fingers over the soles.

“Oh that feels so good.” I moan.

“See that Amber, that’s what happens when you kiss boys.”

Travis and I burst out laughing as Chief walks out with Amber. That man has a talent to make everything funny, literally everything. Travis pulls me into his arms when Chief and Amber leave, and we snuggle close. His fingers trail lightly over my belly, and he leans down and gives it a soft, gentle kiss.

“I can’t wait you know?” He murmurs against it.

“Me either.”

“Can you believe we are having a baby Mischief?”

I smile. “No, I can’t but I am not complaining.”

He leans up and grips my face.

“You look beautiful as a pregnant woman.”

“Now I know you are just being nice.”

He laughs, and kisses me softly.

“I only say what is true. Amber seems excited?”

I smile. “I think she is thrilled.”

“Things are going good, don’t you think?”

“I know they are Trav, you are a beautiful Dad and you make me so proud.”

“Aw now stop that.”

“She loves you, you know that?”

“Heck yeah I know that. I am glad Anna has eased up.”

“Anna has a man now, she needs some alone time too.”

He snorts
. “Images.”

I laugh. “Aw leave her alone, besides, I am glad Amber gets to stay over.”

“I am glad you love her like I do, seeing you with her melts me.”

“I do love her
Trav; she is such a great girl.”

He grins. “I wonder what our little bean will be
like?”

I lean back and smile. “Hopefully more like me.”

He shoves me lightly and laughs. “You don’t mean that.”

“No, rockstar, I don’t because if he or she is even a touch like you, then we will know we have made the most beautiful baby in the world.”

CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT

 

“Oh God.” I say, sitting upright in bed.

“What’s wrong?” Trav asks, sitting up beside me.

“I think…I think my water just broke.”

“What?” He cries, leaping up.

“Oh, God, it did.”

He runs around and searches for pants or clothes.

“It’s ok baby we will get you to the hospital…we will get you to the hospital!”

“Trav calm down, I am not having
contractions yet. Just get the bags and we will go.”

“I have to run next door and tell your
Mom, she will have a fit.”

“Be calm, just go and tell her and I will wait here…”

“Oh fuck…fuck…”

“Travis Phoenix…calm down!” I
chastise him. “This is just the beginning.”

He runs his hand through his hair and takes a deep breath.

“Calm…calm.”

“Go get my
Mother, I will meet you downstairs.”

He nods and rushes
out; with a roll of my eyes I shuffle to my feet. I am soaked. Ugh. I change into a dress and some granny panties as Trav likes to call them, and I waddle downstairs. My Mother, Chief and Travis are all rushing through the front door, they all look nervous and panicked.

“For Christ sakes you lot, I haven’t even had a contraction yet!”

“Should we call the hospital first?” My Mother asks, rushing over and putting her hand on my stomach as though she is going to feel something miraculous.

“Yes
call them first.”

Chief hands her the phone and she spends the next ten minutes talking to a doctor. When she hangs up she comes over and puts her hand on my stomach again.

“No contractions yet?” She asks.

“Slight
tightening’s.” I say, wiggling a little.

“Ok, we have to time them.”

“Seriously?” I ask, with a horrified expression. “Can’t we just go in and get this over with?”

She laughs and Chief snorts.

“Oh baby, you are in for a real treat.” Chief says plonking down onto the couch and cracking a beer, he hands one to Trav.

“Oh no you don’t!”
I say, giving him a look.

Trav shakes his head at the beer, he looks pale.

“Trav, are you ok?”

“I never…I don’t know what is going to happen. I didn’t see Amber being born.”

“Blood, shit, spew…and God knows what else.” Chief mutters.

“CHIEF!”
My Mother and I say at the same time.

“I’m joking!” He says, putting his hands up. “It’s real beautiful, Mischief just slid on out of there, simple.”

My Mother gapes in horror. “Just slid on out Caden?”

His eyes widen and he gives her a sheepish grin.

“Well, not exactly slid on out…more…pushed with great force.”

“I think you should be quiet now.” I say, giving him a look.

“Oh fuck.” Trav mumbles, looking even paler now.

“Trav, honey, it will be fine.”

“She is going to scream and cry, God; I can’t see her like that.”

My
Mother grips his shoulders and shakes him.

“Snap out of it, you have to see her like that. She will be in pain, she will scream and cry but she is giving you a gift. It is a beautiful
moment and you need to be her rock, so stop your sulking and man up.”

Chief roars with laughter and I thump him on the chest.
