Chapter 8

July 2009

“Update,” I spit as I sit at the head of the table surrounded by my club.

Manic’s eyes dart to Riggs’ before he speaks. “One of the trap houses in Newark got rolled last night.”

Pinching the bridge of my nose doesn’t even begin to stave off the migraine I’ve had for the last week.

“Keep an eye on that facespace bullshit so we can figure out who had the balls to pull some shit like that,” I order.

Idiots online think they’re invincible. It wouldn’t surprise me if someone from Newark hadn’t already posted about their attempt at being Billy Badass.

“Facespace?” Briar asks. He’s one of the idiots Eric brought in last year. Two years older than my son, it only took the guy like six months to transition from prospect to patched member. That was Eric’s call, and I let him have it. I’m not feeling as confident in his choices these days, especially after the bullshit he pulled this past weekend. “I mean there’s MySpace and Face—”

Gator kicks Briar under the table. “Shut the fuck up.”

Briar’s mouth snaps shut. If my brain didn’t feel like it was swelling out of my skull, I’d put a bullet in his head. That would show my wayward son who’s still in fucking control of this club. I’m only forty, but most days I feel eighty. It’s what I get for living my thirties to their fullest. I never knew coke, whiskey, and copious amounts of pussy would eventually wear me down, but here I am, eating pain pills like they’re candy and drinking Pepto like I own stock in the damn company.

“Lynch was arraigned this morning. One of the prospects went to pick him up,” Manic continues.

“I want to see him when he gets back.” The pride I felt the day Eric earned his road name has faded quickly as of late.

Riggs shuffles uneasily in his seat. He knows what I’m capable of. The larger our empire grows, the more ruthless we have to be. He knows I’ll do anything I have to, to keep control of Ravens Ruin, taking care of my son in the way I see fit included.

“Clientele has increased with the financial crisis. We’re moving more product than ever. Testing the GHB market in Boston seems to be going well,” Riggs states.

Briar cuts his eyes to Riggs, displeasure clear on his face.

“You got a problem, kid?” I ask with a cocked eyebrow, daring him to speak his fucking mind.

“No, Prez,” he mutters, crossing his arms over his chest and sliding deeper into his chair.

Riggs rolls his eyes, agitated that we’re even entertaining the young group of guys that my son is adamant about bringing into the MC.

“Prez?” My eyes meet Gator’s.

“We might want to consider Rohypnol rather than GHB. It’s just easier to transport, and decreases the dealer’s chances of getting caught when they don’t have to dose everyone in person,” he says.

“Manic?” I turn my attention to my VP.

“He’s got a point. We can still provide liquid for the bodybuilders, but capsules may be more lucrative for the college kids,” Manic answers.
