CHAPTER ELEVEN
–MERCY –
My whole life I’ve only seen a handful of bikers.Until the past few weeks where I’ve been rolling from one MC into the other.The door of church is open and I’m sitting between Sable and Kujo when bikers I’ve never seen before stroll inside.
They are wearing leather cuts with a Wisely Dicey patch.A snake sneaking around snake eyes dices.The President walks in first, behind him the VP, and two others, one of them has scars littering his skin.Another one is talking to Barge and the way they smile and chat?I think that one’s Lenz, Barge’s cousin.
The one with the president’s patch steps forward and offers his hand to Kujo.“Kujo Tweedy, Thorsten Rhyland.This here is my brother, Falcon.My VP, Macsen, and that guy over there is Jocko.You already know Lenz.”
Kujo nods and points out the bikers, introducing them in order around the table until he points at us.“And this is my VP, Sable Rustam.Next to him is his old lady, my daughter, Mercy Sheridan.”
“Ah, Mercy Sheridan.”Thorsten gives me a smile.“Sorry to hear about the trouble your uncle has been causing.”
I give the man a nod.
“Don’t worry, we’re going to handle the cleanup.I already signed off on the papers so Lenz has the authorization to wire any money recovered during this operation to you for compensation from the sale of your mother’s house.Sadly, we looked at their financial status beforehand, and they’re all in debt.It’s probably why they sucked you dry.We’ve done some research and there was a shipment of drugs intercepted three months ago.This could be the reason why they are in debt and are trying to fund a restart to make up for the hit they took.Nonetheless, they need to be brought to justice.”
I have to clench my teeth to prevent my jaw hitting the floor.Strange how only a few weeks of dealing with bikers has shown me such a weird difference in clubs.Where my uncle didn’t tell me anything, Sable gives me honesty, and the president of Wisely Dicey, who I just met hands out details as if I’m one of them.
Appreciating his words, I whisper, “Thanks.”
“I’m the one who should be thanking you, ma’am.We get to pull another MC off the streets for dealing drugs.There’s a huge bonus in there for us from the government when we’re the one handing them a case on a silver platter.”He grins and shoots me a wink.
Sable’s chest rumbles, making Thorsten roll his eyes.“Rein it in, brother.I have no interest in any other woman.Not when I have the perfect old lady sitting in the van out in the parking lot.Did I mention she’s pregnant with my kid?Yeah, she’s not only a stunner, but a damn fine special agent.Well, Livi quit her job after she went undercover to bring down my club.Technically she still has a contract with the government through my club, but...whatever.”
He grins while I feel my eyes widen.Holy shit, is he kidding?
Thorsten chuckles.“I can tell by the look in your eyes you’d like to meet my old lady.”He directs his attention to Sable.“Is your old lady coming with us?If so, she’s welcome to stay in the van with Lenz, Livi, and I’m sure Barge will join his cousin.Those in the van never enter the scene.”He leans forward and fake whispers, “Just the thought of my pregnant old lady near flying bullets knocks the air straight from my lungs.Did I mention the van is bulletproof?”
Sable doesn’t glance my way when he states loud and clear, “It’s her decision.”
“Mercy, would you like to be in the van with Thorsten’s old lady to watch from a safe distance?”Kujo asks.
Watch how they kick those assholes out on the street?The men who lied to me, who hurt me, who stole from me?“Yes, please.”
“Perfect,” Thorsten grunts.“We have all the arrest warrants, and backup is waiting two blocks away in case we need it.”
