Psycho - Headless Horsemen MC novel Chapter 37

- Harley -

"So where are we going?" I ask Shelby as she gives the cab driver the details for the club, "It's in the next town over, some new place apparently it's the hottest club around here" I nod my head and look out the window "Does Gunner or Jax know where we are going?" I ask her still looking out the window, "Uhh not exactly but I have my location on my phone if they need to track me" she mumbles to herself, I let out a deep breath and rub the bridge of my nose, why do I have a bad feeling about this?

After 30 minutes we pull up to an old looking building, we pay the cab fair and get out and begin to make our way to the line, the sound of music and vibrations of bass escape the door every time it opens. We begin to walk to the back of the line when my arm is grabbed, I whip my head around to see one of the bouncers latched onto me, I growl and shake my arm from his grip, "Didn't your momma ever tell you don't touch what's not yours" I say while I put my hands on my hips.

"Sorry gorgeous, just wanted to let you know that you and your friend can go in right away, bosses orders" boss? Who the fucks the boss? We follow the man inside who shows us to the VIP section, we sit down and order our drinks. I look out over the club before turning my focus back to Shelby, "Do the boys own this place?" I ask basically yelling into her ear, she shakes her head and leans over to my hear "No they don't, I don't know who owns it".

The waitress comes over with our drinks and a tray of shots too, she places our drinks in front of us as well as the shots, "Excuse me we didn't order these!" I yell out over the music, she gives me a sweet smile before replying to me, "It's a gift from the boss" she smiles again and leaves quickly, okay who the fuck is this boss?

I sit down and look at the tray of shots infront of us, I take a mouthful of my drink before turning to Shelby, "Are we going to drink them?" She asks looking over to the silver tray, "I just want to know who the boss is and why he keeps giving us shit" I say looking over the crowd to try and find someone who might be the 'boss', "Who cares, let your hair down Harley lets have some fun" Shelby yells as she grabs two shots, she hands one to me before raising it in the air, I do the same and down the shot placing the glass on the table, tequila my favourite, this is too fucking weird now.

We finish off our drinks and the shots and by we I mean me. Shelby had 3 shots and her drink I had the other 7 and my drink. "Wanna go dance?" Shelby asks slurring a little, I nod my head and grab her hand, she drags us through the crowd and down onto the dance floor, "Let's give them a show!" She yells out and luckily I'm just drunk enough to agree.

We grind our bodies against one another as the music blasts throughout the club, the bass vibrating my body, we let ourselves go to the beat. Before I know it someone's arm latches onto mine, I turn around and am faced with a large man with a security badge on "Free drinks for you and your friend, from the boss" I groan loudly and stomp my foot like a child "And who exactly is the fucking boss?" I ask raising my hands to my hips, "You will find out soon enough" is all he says before he walks away, I turn back to Shelby who is still dancing and failed to notice the mountain of a man that approached us.

"Want more drinks?" She asks yelling out finally realising I'm not dancing anymore, "I need the whole damn bar" I mutter to myself. We make our way over to the bar and order another 2 drinks and another round of shots, Shelby downs 2 shots before tapping out leaving me the other 8, I take them and down them, before I grab my drink off the counter as we make our way back to the dancefloor.

We have been dancing and drinking for hours, "I'm ready to head home" I hear Shelby slur out as she latches onto me, "Well lets go home little red" I coo to her as we stumble out of the club, we get to the front and begin to attempt to order a cab. I hear someone clear their throat from behind me, I turn around on my heels and almost fall over myself, I steady myself of Shelby before looking to who is standing infront of me. A man around my age stands before me, some small tattoos peak through his sleeves, his blonde curly hair falls around his face almost perfectly, he has green eyes and a sculpted face and jaw, hes pretty, but nothing compared to Jax.

"Can I help you?" I ask trying to keep my balance, "Well that's no way to thank someone for the free drinks and entry" he says with a cocky look on his face, "Thanks" I say as I begin to turn around, his hand stops me and pulls me back to face him, "I don't think anyone has ever stood up to me like that" I roll my eyes and blow a raspberry "Pfft, not everyone you meet is going to drop at your feet dumbass" he steps closer to me and leans down to me "Feisty, I like it" a dirty smirk appears on his face, I reach my hand up to my bra to grab my pocket knife while my hand is holding onto Shelby's tightly.

A loud cough breaks both of us out of our stances, I quickly dip into my bra and grab the knife before returning my hand to my side, I pull Shelby behind me and I turn my focus to the other man, "Vince, me and the boys are heading back" I hear a familiar voice my eyes widen when I realise who it is, his focus shifts to me and a dumbass smirk spreads across his face. An animalistic growl escapes my chest at the sight of him, I flip my pocket knife open and lunge at him, I push 'Vince' out of the way I punch and slash my arm towards my brother.

I'm pulled back by Shelby tugging on my arm, I turn around and see the cab had shown up, I turn back to Matthew and see that I was able to slash his face open, blood drips down his cheek and chin as he stares at me still slightly smiling, "I'll kill you soon, brother" I say coldly as I make my way into the cab.

I'm broke out of my thoughts by the sound of loud voices, I groan and rub my eyes I roll over to the clock on the bedside table to look at the time, 10 am I should probably get up, I get up and stumble to the shower, I jump in and quickly clean myself and brush my teeth. I get out and dry myself off before throwing on some baggy tracksuit pants and a singlet. I put some socks on and brush my hair, a wave of nausea hits me I run to the toilet and begin to throw up into the bowl, that will teach you to drink your weight in tequila every second night Harley. Now I've gotta brush my teeth again I scold myself as I pull myself up from the toilet bowl, I walk over to the basin and wash my face before brushing my teeth again.

I look into the mirror, ew I look gross. I make my way downstairs to the kitchen to see all of the men already eating, I go to the coffee pot and make myself a coffee "What took you so-" I hold my hand up to stop Gunner from speaking anymore, I take a sip of my coffee and sigh contently before turning back to face him, "Now you may speak" I say with a smile as I take another sip of my coffee, "Dam Harlz you look like shit" my smile instantly drops and my eyes shoot daggers at Gunner's dumb head.

"Speak about your queen like that again and I'll let her kill you" I hear Jax speak from behind me, my body relax's when I feel his hands make their way around my waist, I turn to face him and pout out my bottom lip "Do you really have to go?" I ask still pouting he laughs and kisses my forehead "Yes kitten you know I do, it's only 5 days you will be okay you have Shelby and Betty here" I nod my head and skull the rest of my coffee, it's going to be a long-ass day.

Eventually we all make our way out to the front of the clubhouse, the men begin to say goodbye to their friends and families or rotters, I watch as Gunner and Shelby hug each other and whisper shit to each other probably some more cutely dumb nicknames, I turn to see Jax walking towards me "Don't miss me too much" he says with a shit-eating smile on his face before picking me up and spinning me around, "I think it might be the other way around" I say as he places me back on the ground, "Yeah yeah keep telling yourself that kitten" he leans down and kisses me slowly.

"We gotta go pres" I hear Wood yell out from behind us, I turn around to see Wood standing there with a sad smile on his face "I'm sorry Harley" he says quietly, I shake my head and walk over to him pulling him in for a hug, "Now you take care of my men, I'm counting on you to bring all of you home to us, you're the only one with his head screwed on, but don't tell Jax I said that" I say quietly before shooting him a wink.

I walk back over to Jax who engulfs me in another hug and kiss, I pull back and place my hand over his cheek "Come home to me" I say softly to him, he closes his eyes and then opens them looking directly at me, "I'll always come home to you".
