  Epilogue

  Neo

  This morning being inside my woman was fantastic. This afternoon, sitting on the stool behind her as the so call ol’ lady intervention goes on, I’m wishing I could go back to this morning where I was buried inside Harley’s pussy.

  The ol’ ladies came up from Badger’s club and Izzy was now laying into each one of them alongside Rachel and Jordan.

  I’ve met her a few times and she’s a beast when she wants to be. Perfect for Twister in every way.

  “When it comes to women who come into the club as ol’ ladies to the men who are members, we as sisters don’t sit there and throw fits over something all because we don’t get to know what’s going on. Each woman is different in every aspect. Not everyone is as strong as the other. Take me for instance, I lost my brother and nearly put a bullet in my head. Twice. You think it’s okay to hurt someone because of what they’ve been through and not think it’s as bad as what everyone else went through, you’re wrong,” Izzy murmurs.

  “I love you all but I’m pissed, especially at the two of you, we don’t put anyone down, the fact you fell to the clubwhores’ level infuriates me,” Rachel snaps.

  The conversation kept on and on as each person said something when it got to Victoria and Luna, they were both crying as they looked in our direction. Apologies were made but though Harley nodded accepting their sincerity, only time will be a true factor in if they mean it. They have to be willing to work with all of us in order to help heal the cracks within Harley’s trust of women.

  “Now that this is over and done with, I’m not putting up with this shit in my clubhouse again,” Stoney remarks then turns his attention to me. “Let’s get you ready, brother,” he orders. Meaning get ready for my fight tonight.

  “Come on, Neo, you can do it,” Harley yells from next to Venom who’s standing guard over her as the other ol’ ladies yell in encouragement.

  Grinning, I throw another punch knocking my opponent back once again. He stumbles into the rope and comes back at me. Ready to finish this and get my reward, I knock the guy out with a fist to the side of his head sending him to the mat.

  The ref comes over, checks the guy out, and declares me the winner. My gaze catches Harley’s as she rushes up to the ring and slides through and jumps into my arms laughing. Yeah, this is one hell of a reward. As I hold her to me, I glance around the area. I don’t know what it is but for some reason I sense eyes on us. I’ll mention it later cause right now it’s my time. Mine and Harley’s.

  We have each other and like my dad did for my mom, until he was taken from her, I’ll be my woman’s strength for as long as I’m allowed and even in death, I’ll fight my way back to get at her side. She deserves every bit of happy thrown her way and I intend to make sure for the rest of her life that there’s always a true smile on her face and at the same time keep her demons locked away.

  Dear Readers,

  Thank you for reading Neo’s Strength. I do hope you enjoyed this as much as I did. It truly has been emotional in writing this couple’s story. Both of them have been dealt crap hands in life.

  If you know anyone who goes through a depression state of mind, please reach out and let them know they’re not alone. Suicide is a real thing and nothing to joke about. Don’t let those you care about go down that road without knowing they can turn back around. Give them your strength if need be.

  Sincerely,

  E.C.

  Vex’s Temptation

  Ainslee

  Life has been cruel to me over the last five years. Things happened back home, which resulted in me deciding to move across the pond. Where do I call home? Queens, New York. I’m prospecting for the Iron Vex MC after meeting Iris at a pottery class I was taking at the local college. We quickly became friends, and one thing led to another.

  Now I’m a super bad bitch, or at least that’s what I think.

  I’m not from this life, but after everything with my family went south, I decided I needed a change. I needed to live for my own happiness, not theirs. Coming out meant losing them forever, but I couldn’t hide who I was anymore. At least the club will accept me for who I am.

  So much has changed from my confidence to even the color of my hair. I’ve become accustomed to change, though. So, it wasn’t a big deal when Boss asked me to be the regent for the Iron Vex MC. Yet again, everything is changing. I had no problem going down to Franklin. It was my job to be in Horse’s club, so I’d be there.

  Little did I know a ghost from my past would be walking through his front door.

  Finley

  I knew there was going to be someone coming down from New York to be the regent for the Iron Vex MC. It seems a bit historical to me, using the word and whatever, but here I am. One of our own is supposed to be going up to New York as we speak. An even trade-off, ensuring our alliance is smooth sailing.

  I didn’t expect much from one of them showing up. To be honest, I don’t know what I expected but it certainly wasn’t seeing Ainslee again.

  Now here we are . . . and I wonder if this is our chance to see what we could’ve been all those years ago. From her appearance, so much about her has changed, but selfishly I hope her heart hasn’t.

  Tiny’s Hope

  Tiny

  Life was perfect. I was finally living thanks to Chains. He became my everything as I learned I didn’t have to look over my shoulder constantly. We even started a family with a boy and girl.

  To me everything was as it should be.

  At least that’s what I thought until the past comes to the present.

  Can Chains and I overcome these obstacles in front of us?

  One that leads us to danger or will he decide I’m not worth it. Only the hope I carry within my soul keeps me from drowning in the heartache that’s in front of me.

  Cane’s Dominance

  Cane

  People look at me and think I’m nothing, that I’m a nobody, but they don’t know the real me. I’m a member of the Devil’s Riot MC, but my brothers don’t know the truth.

  When I was a child, I managed to survive the pit of darkness, and this darkness . . . it’s only something some children endure. There’s nothing in my way as I become the man I want to be, not when my brothers have my back, and certainly not when I have a certain woman in my sights.

  I’m dominant by nature and I’ll stop at nothing to take what’s meant to be mine. Even in the midst of tragedy and despair I’ll make sure she submits to me. As they say, rise up or fall down.

  In life we constantly have to fight for the things we care about, and she’s worth the battle I’m facing.

  One way or another, she’ll obtain my dominance.

  Degrade

  Félix

  She wasn’t mine to take, but I’ve never been the type of man to ever give a damn. If someone’s expecting me to ask for permission, well, they’re shit out of luck.

  Frozen Valentine

  Blake

  The first thing you learn as a kid is ‘stranger danger’, but they don’t tell you what to do when a tall, tattooed, dangerous man shows up out of nowhere.

  I know I should make him leave. He’s surely capable of fending for himself, but it’s the middle of winter, the roads are icy, and around these parts that can mean a death sentence. I don’t have any other choice but to help this handsome stranger.

  My heart has been broken one too many times, and I’ve refused to let anyone back in.

  Can I keep this man from melting my heart with his charm, or will it be as frigid as it was yesterday?

  Today is Valentine’s after all, and stranger things have happened.
