“You’re right, but still, she’ll come around.”
My mind drifted to memories of my mom’s mother.Even as a kid, I knew she didn’t get the MC world.Debra didn’t seem as tightly wound as Grandma Carlton, but time would tell.
Ivy grinned up at me and kissed my jaw.“Wanna go again…to make things more official?Or are you too tired?”
I flipped her to her back.“Did you say ‘too tired?’Woman, you’re the one who’s older.You don’t ever have to ask me twice about going again.”
Chapter 24
Say No
Ivy
FridaymorningIdecidedto pair my vintage CBGB t-shirt with my khaki shorts when someone knocked on the door.
“Ivy!It’s me, Mickayla.”
I opened the door and saw Mickayla and Alexandra standing in the hall.
Alexandra gave me a little wave.“Hey, I’m here too.Not to derail her plan, but you should say no.”
Mickayla pushed inside the room and shot a dirty look over her shoulder at Alexandra.“It’s not a bad idea.”
Alexandra followed her inside and shut the door.“It isn’t a good idea either, so where does that leave us?”
Mickayla focused on me.“You still aren’t going to work today, right?”
“That’s right.”
“I thought the three of us could go check out the house where you and Ryan were taken.”
I turned my head a bit and shot her some side eye.“Why would we do that?”
“A few reasons,” she said, then held up a finger.“One, we could see if they’re using that house for anything else.”She held up another finger.“Two, we could check on the other asshole, see if they moved the body.”
“Bleh,” Alexandra said.
Mickayla shook her head at Alexandra.“And three, we can find out if the other vehicle is still there or not.”
Alexandra shook her head.“That doesn’t even count as a reason.Like I said, you should say no.”
I cocked a brow at Alexandra.“But it sounds like you’re going along with it even if you don’t like it.”
She dipped her chin to concede the point.“I’m not going to let her run off on her own.It’s bad enough they took you and Nickel.”
“Speaking of him, I should tell him where I’m going.”
“And he’ll put the kibosh on this.The brothers are in church, it’s not even ten o’clock, there’s no better time to do this,” Mickayla said.
“Our time would be better spent…” Alexandra trailed off at the expectant look on Mickayla’s face.
“Doing what?Twiddling our thumbs?This is basically recon,” Mickayla said.
“That could go bad,” Alexandra muttered.
“Always so negative,” Mickayla said.
“Nope.Just being real,” Alexandra said.
