Chapter 8

“You mean to tell me it was…?” Major couldn’t get the name out. He just couldn’t.

What the fuck was happening?

Was he on a parallel universe or something?

Sure, he’d been with Juanita a while, but he’d never made any promises. He’d made certain he hadn’t, because his Bear had been so fucking uncertain that she was his mate.

Still, for the CCTV footage to have captured her on the back of a bike, a bottle in one hand, a rag sticking out the spout, and a lighter in the other… It meant something deeper was going on, didn’t it?

Mars stared at him, gaze penetrating before he said, “That’s her, isn’t it?”

Major nodded. “Yeah. It’s her. How did you know to come to me?”

A grimace crossed the Prez’s jaw. “Instinct. A solitary female with a Molotov cocktail in hand? Yeah, it screams pissed off woman seeking revenge on her lover.” He jerked a shoulder. “But like I said, it was a hunch. I brought it to you before the council to get confirmation first.”

“What are we going to do?”

Mars rubbed a hand across his jaw. “I’m not sure.”

Aghast, Major gawked at the Prez. “What the hell? You always know what to do.”

“Not in this instance.” He let out a heavy breath and took a seat at the council table. His seat was bigger than the rest, a little more throne-like but without the ostentatiousness.

Not that Mars needed a fancy-schmancy chair to look like the leader he was. It oozed from every pore and loaded each word he uttered.

“I don’t understand,” Major admitted, following his leader’s suit and sitting down.

“You wouldn’t because I don’t either.” He rocked back in his seat but kept his gaze trained on the scratched veneer covering the table. Once, his gaze snatched up to meet Major’s, but other than that, he kept his attention fixed on the table.

“Things are changing around here. I’ve got propositions coming from left, right, and center, and I don’t know which path to take. Now you’re a mated male, you’ll know exactly what my dilemma is. A couple of days ago, you might not have, but now you do.”

Major frowned, considered his Prez and his friend’s words, then slowly nodded. “I think I know what you mean.”

Mars grunted. “The mates are the future of the MC. More than that, they’re the future of the Clan. Without them, it’s obvious, we don’t reproduce. I have to keep them safe.”

“But the men who don’t have mates won’t necessarily like the routes you have to go down to keep them protected.”

Mars clenched his jaw. “Exactly.”

“If we go to war,” Major carried on, “then we’re putting the females in harm’s way. If we don’t go to war, we’re putting the females in harm’s way by not doing anything about the threats surrounding us.”

“Martinez’s cartel isn’t going to forgive us for releasing their shipment of women.”

Mars’ predecessor had started human trafficking with a human cartel. When Mars had taken over, he’d reneged on that contract and had rescued the women the MC had been contracted to transport to their end destinations.
