“Would she though?” Marshall questions, not denying my assessment of Rachel, and I nod to where Scottie is.

“Take a look for yourself,” I murmur, and he looks at my girl who is scowling hard at Rachel, who is standing near the glass door, her eyes completely on me.

“Fuck, if looks could kill,” he mutters, “Not even Rachel could bring a look like that over the years, even with Kavan.”

“She’s possessive of me,” I state proudly, and Marshall chuckles as Lorenzo walks our way with his wife right on his tail, and I groan seeing the look in her eyes.

Patch chaser...

“My daughter is going to break Yasmin's nose, isn’t she?” Marshall confirms, and I nod, but it isn’t until he sees Scottie narrowing her eyes at Yasmin that he groans.

“She was never like this with Kavan,” he huffs, and I mention, “Because he was familiar.”

“Who was familiar?” Lorenzo asks as he stops by us, handing me a beer, and I give him a nod in thanks as Marshall says, “Kavan to your sister.”

Yasmin scoffs, “She’s married to him, of course she’s familiar!”

I roll my eyes as Lorenzo snaps, “He was talking about Scottie!” before he looks at me and asks, “Explain.”

“Scottie is possessive of me, which I fucking love,” I say, and Marshall laughs. I continue, “With Kavan, she wasn’t hurt when she found him with Rachel.”

Yasmin scoffs, cutting in, “Yes, she was, because Kavan chose the woman he always wanted, and Scottie hated it!”

“Yasmin, you can either shut up or fuck off!” Lorenzo snaps, causing her eyes to widen, and I smirk as I yet again continue, “As I was saying, Scottie was hurt by her sister’s actions. She lost her virginity to Kavan, and literally the next day he began sleeping with Rachel behind her back. Scottie couldn’t understand her sister's hate, but with me, I’m her whole world, and she’s mine, so the more your wife keeps looking at me, Lorenzo, the more of a chance she’s about to have her nose broken.”

Yasmin tenses and we all look at Scottie, who is now leaning her back against the railing on the porch. Her arms are crossed over her chest with her eyes completely on me while Ellie’s shoulders shake with silent laughter.

I kiss two fingers and hold them up to my girl.

Yasmin huffs, but we don’t look her way. Lorenzo whispers, “We all treated her like fucking crap because of Rachel's lies. After my guitar was broken, something snapped inside me and I always thought that Rachel was telling the truth because of that one incident. Even that Kavan had apparently loved her, that Scottie was blackmailing him to stay with her and that she was a cleaner, trying to get money from our parents. When in reality, she worked her ass off.”

“She did blackmail Kavan!” Yasmin chimes in, and Marshall snaps, “No, she fucking didn’t, he had an affair with her sister,” and Lorenzo growls, “Stay out of shit you don’t fucking know!” causing her to curl her lip before her eyes come my way, then trail my body yet again.

Fucking patch chasers…

“You can stop looking at me that way, fuck you very much!” I snap causing Yasmin to jump just as we hear, “So, Thunder, how long are you in town for?” whispered seductively, and I raise a brow as I lock eyes with Rachel's conniving blue ones full of lust that make me want to gag.

Is she seriously trying to fucking hit on me with her sister right there?

“I’m heading home in two weeks,” I answer politely despite wanting to snap at the bitch. She smirks as she slowly twirls her hair, trying to be seductive, which isn’t fucking working, and mentions, “So two weeks of potential fun before you break my sister’s little heart?”

Fun? With her? Ha!

I smile, and her smirk slowly fades, her confidence waving because not once have I looked past her face where I know she’s pulled down her dress, and I state, “Actually, your sister is coming with me, and she’ll be staying with me after I give her my property patch and ring.”

Her mouth parts in shock, pure jealousy etching her features as Yasmin gasps, but when I add, “Also there is a chance she could be pregnant,” both women stumble back as Marshall sighs, “You fucked with her birth control didn’t you?”

Am I shocked that he came up with that answer? Nope, not one bit, but am I shocked he hasn’t punched me yet? Definitely.

The man may have made some bad choices when it comes to his daughter, but you can see he’s trying.

I shrug and remind him, “I won’t lose her,” and he mutters, “I can see it now, here lies an idiot, clear as day…” As he spread his hands before him, moving them apart as he speaks.

I grin wide and admit, “You and your daughter think alike because she mentioned burying me in the yard when I didn’t call her while I was meeting up with my club.”

Marshall's eyes soften, and he looks towards Scottie, who is focusing on her mama again, both smiling, and he whispers, “That is good to know.”

“And what about Sammie, huh? Who is going to take him?!” Rachel snaps, breaking her father’s moment, and I raise a brow while Lorenzo takes a menacing step forward.
