Poison took the trace. She straightened her again, however she nonetheless made eyes at me. She stated, “Perhaps he can experience with us to Houston.”

“Fuck. Is that in the present day?” Maren requested.

Poison huffed. “I knew you’d neglect. You’d attempt to pull out. We are able to’t. I made a promise within the membership’s identify that we’d ship our donation in particular person.”

“We’re not pulling out. I simply won’t be capable to go myself as deliberate. One thing huge, one thing monstrous has come up,” Maren stated.

“If we don’t go away now, we’ll be late,” Poison stated. “Everybody else is on a job in the present day, keep in mind?”

“Yeah,” Maren stated, touching her finger to her chin. She appeared anxious about that.

I questioned what the large secret was. Maren was stuffed with them.

Turning to me, she lifted each her shoulders. “It’s higher to make ourselves scarce in the present day. How about it, Dick? You man sufficient to affix us in the present day on our run?”

If Maren was leaving Galveston to go anyplace, she higher imagine I’d. I didn’t need her out of my sight. Nonetheless, I couldn’t simply take and run her again to Royal Street both, like I had deliberate. She and I wanted some form of technique. I made a decision to tag alongside.

I stated, “I’d like to. The place are we headed?”

“A guide signing,” Poison answered.

“A what?” I requested, blinking.

Maren defined, “Not but. There’s a big occasion in Houston referred to as Bikes, Mobsters and Mayhem Writer Occasion. It occurs in Might. Apparently, there’s fiction written about bikers and the mob and such, and this signing may have 100 or extra authors. Will probably be packed, from what I hear. Studying’s not my factor. However Poison enjoys it.”

Poison took over. “My sister-in-law in Houston is without doubt one of the organizers. She helps put collectively the occasion yearly. It’s by no means been in Houston earlier than, her hometown. Since they draw such a big crowd, they help a number of charities. We’re delivering a big donation from the Asphalt Gods MC. Because it was my job to prepare and accumulate it earlier than I transferred right here from Houston, I promised her I’d ship it personally in the present day.”

“However you stated the signing’s not till Might.” I used to be a bit confused.

“It’s a number of money,” Poison stated.

Maren gave her a glance to let me know one thing was afoot. “I promised Poison I’d go along with her since I admire her transferring to my chapter to be my Street Captain. The Gods are huge on charity work.”

Poison’s eyes went again. “Received to maintain Scar pleased. Plus, we’d like the excuse. We’re searching for somebody in Houston.”

Maren made a slicing movement throughout her neck.

Poison shut up.

Maren stated to her, “I’ll go along with you and pay my respects to Judy. See what she has deliberate for the signing, however you’ll find your buddy, alone. Maintain that. I’ll care for this huge dick. I imply Dick.”

Leaving me along with her Street Captain, Maren went to dry her hair and get her leathers on. Having left mine within the motel, I’d be in plain garments. Nobody may know who I used to be anyhow. Fortunately, I had a cap that wouldn’t look too odd in February in Texas. It might disguise the tentacle tattoos on my head, a part of my calling card.

I requested Poison, “Going to be assembly up with Houston Gods in the present day?”

“Not in the present day. Don’t say something, however I solely provided to do that, so Treasure didn’t need to be on the town in the present day.”

Okay? What the hell. “What’s occurring in the present day?”

Poison twirled her hair on a finger. “Her ex is driving by means of on his strategy to Arizona. He requested for an escort, considering she’d be a part of it.”

“Her ex?” I sounded extra stunned than I ought to have.

“Yeah. Biker from our Arkansas chapter. He’s pissed she’s approach out right here now.”

Maren had extra secrets and techniques, greater than have been even in Merc’s file on her. I pried Poison for intel. “So, your President cherished this man?”

“No clue. She’s tight lipped about every thing.”
