We received our agenda for our meetings the day before the meeting. When I pulled it up and saw thatKing’s Kittiesdisbandment was on the agenda as new business, I almost fell out of my seat. From my understanding, they had been a thingfor over sixty years. I had never been so excited to hear the discussion.

The motion was brought to the floor by one of the femaleKOKriders. Wait, I should call them by their new name.Queens of Kings (QOK)was what they were officially named in our bylaws. That change came last month, and it was welcomed. They were not a separate club, but they did deserve some distinction as the women of the club.

The QOKs felt that now there was no need for an auxiliary to exist since women were now able to join the bike club officially. They brought forth amazing discussion on how the actions of theKittieshad been detrimental to the club in the past and could continue to be so. Things did become tense during discussion when Aaron’s ex-wife was brought up. By the end of the discussion, the majority agreed to have the auxiliary disbanded.

AJ rubbed his hand down his face. “I know it’s going to be a lot of hurt hos. Some may even be on some ‘you can’t disband us’ bullshit, but we can.KOKactually owns the trademark for the name.”

“You think any of them will just try to join the club? That, to me, seems like it would be the most logical thing to do.” In my opinion, theKittiesshould have been disbanded when the bylaws changed to allow women into the club.

His shoulders lifted. “I think the non-problematic ones will. Not all theKittiesare hos, just the majority. The others will just bitch and moan. If any of the whores try to join, I doubt theQOKwould let it happen.”

I could see that. We spoke for a few more minutes before I said my goodbyes. My house alarm told me that Hestia had come in. Her ass was supposed to be at work. Eloise was with her mother and brothers today.

It was a shame that Lawrence hadn’t tried to see his sons. It turned out to be a lie that the youngest wasn’t his. The wayhe spoke about it, you would have thought that he had the boy tested. Nope! He took the word of his mistress. Those quiet ones were sneaky. Sometimes that could be a good or a bad thing.

On my ride home, I checked the cameras in my house. Hestia had taken a shower and was now in my bed. My baby was not a ‘in the middle of the day nap’ kind of girl unless she had to be. If she was in bed, then for some reason, she felt she had to be.

Before I got home, I stopped to get my baby her favorite meal. Outside of her LEGO and my dick, food always made her feel better. There may have been nothing wrong with her, but just in case, I wanted to have my bases covered.

I set the food down on the island countertop in the kitchen, put my messenger bag on the couch, then went straight to my bedroom. Her idle beauty stopped me at the bedroom door. I watched her sleep peacefully and thought about if I really wanted to wake her. Even if I didn’t wake her, I wanted to at least give her a kiss.

I slowly walked to her side of the bed, then lowered the top part of my body. I placed a kiss on her temple. She moaned then shifted in her body. “Come lay with me please.”

I told her I would after I took a shower. It was the quickest shower that I ever took. Once I was washed, dried, and had my lotion on, I climbed into the bed behind my baby with a pair of boxers on and my bare chest.

Hestia snuggled against me when I wrapped my arms around her. I kissed her neck, then buried my face into it. “Baby, what’s wrong? I’ve never known you to leave work early. You not feeling well?”

She shook her head. In her sleepy voice, she responded, “I know. Everyone was surprised when I left. I had to because I couldn’t stop throwing up and stuff.” She pushed back against my chest. “You got me pregnant.”

My heart skipped a beat. I didn’t say anything. Hell, I couldn’t say anything. Her soft snores and my beating heart were all that I heard.My baby is having my baby.

Some Time Later

A Mt. O Girlie or a KOK Boy . . .

Time had shown itself to be good for Bread and Hestia. Love came through and attached itself like a sidecar for them as they rode together on this road of life. Hestia never saw it for herself. Now she had everything that she never thought that she could have.

Bread always saw it for himself. He just wasn’t sure who would be the leading lady in the plan that God mapped out for him. From the moment he saw her atDrag The Streets, he knew that she was the one. Everything about her was just so . . . the one. The way she lived her life, moved as a healthcare professional, loved her family, his daughter, and led as a leaderin her bike club made her the perfect complement for a man like Alexander Conners II.

“Man, when we gonna find out that you having my nephew?” Hades asked with annoyance. “Oh, and I don’t know about thatKOKboys shit. It’s a cute theme, considering, but my nephew gonna beMt. Othrough and through.”

Bread tittered at his brother-in-law. The baby shower which was held the weekend after Bread and Hestia’s wedding was a must attend, just like their wedding was. It was a wedding to remember.

As an associate atWashington-Smith Brokerage Firm, it gave Bread direct access toTae Design & Event Firm.Not only did he have access, but he had the privilege of an associate’s discount. They needed that because they wanted to plan a wedding and baby shower in less than three months. If anyone could make it happen, it wasTae Design & Event Firm.

Founder’s Hall located uptown Charlotte was the venue for the wedding and today’s baby shower. Between theMount Olympus Ridersand theKing of Kings,which included theQueens of Kings, they needed all the space they could get. The guest list for both events was astronomical, and Hestia didn’t care. When the ladies spoke to her about dialing it back a bit, she would have a fit. Bread would always come to the rescue to let everyone know that she could have whatever she wanted.

“My boy or girl is gonna be whatever he or she wants to be. They have two options,Mount OandKOK.Well, three, technically, if you countQOKseparately,” Bread pointed out.

Which motorcycle club his kid would be in was the furthest thing from his and Hestia’s mind. Eloise had already proclaimed that she and her bestie, Jessica, would beMt. O Goddesseslike her Ma Hes. All Bread and Hestia cared about was the health of their baby. Dr. Hestia Basil took no shorts when it came to her care and the care of her baby.

Hades sucked his teeth. In a mumble, he said, “My nephew is gonna be aMt. O. I don’t care what y’all talking about.”He is such a brat.

“Here you go, Mommy!” Melanie set down a plate of chicken fries in front of Hestia. “Jade said these are fresh out of the grease.”

Things had taken a turn for the best since Melanie moved to Charlotte. She never would have imagined that it was the move she needed to truly get the support that she needed. Laura, one of theMt. OGoddesses,was in search of an executive assistant right at the time that Melanie needed a job. As a favor to Hestia, Laura hired her with no questions asked.

The position paid over $70,000 a year. That was more than Melanie had ever earned or even thought she could earn. A perk of the job was that she was able to travel with Laura. During the times that she had to travel, Melanie’s sons stayed with Alexander’s parents. His mother still didn’t care for her overall, but she loved those boys.
