THE CHAPTER WHERE SHIT SHOULD GET BETTER BUT DOESN’T

THE LOSER

Before the police arrive, I return to the house to locate another jacket. Inside, I find a fresh pot of coffee and my brother chugging a cup in his lame attempt to fix what a keg’s worth of booze broke. With his head hanging low, Cy looks up at me from under his dark brows. I get the impression he doesn’t think he’ll survive the night. The reality is he might be right. Assuming the Reapers don’t kill us, the Roches might. Even if we dodge a bullet with those groups of violent men, we still have to deal with the one who gave us life by jizzing in women he hated.

I’m not worried about my safety. Less than an hour ago, I was certain my Lily Bear was dead. I was completely fucking done living if she was gone. Knowing she’s safe and on her way to her mother’s arms, I’m ready for whatever happens next even if it’s my end.

In the tiny front closet, I grab a ratty jacket I haven’t worn since high school. Though it does little to warm me, I return to the porch as the police arrive and park near the line of Harleys.

Cooper and his men parrot their bikes, acting as a threatening wall against the fuzz. I hesitate rather than joining them. These men aren’t my allies. They care about Lily. To them, I’m no more than trash stuck to her shoe that she refuses to throw away.

My entire life, I’ve feared the Reapers who exert more than simple brawn. The club also runs legit businesses in Ellsberg, giving them influence with the mayor and the police department. If the Reapers aren’t happy with someone, they can make that person invisible to the rest of the town.

Years ago, a small church decided the Reapers were Satanists. Twenty or so members of the Righteous Kingdom protested the Reapers-owned bars—Tequila Jodi and Whiskey Kirk’s. When that didn’t work, they pushed the police to crack down on motorcycles around schools. Finally, they asked the city council to force the local tattoo shops to shut down. This last move is likely what set off Cooper Johansson whose buddy runs Kentucky Tattoos.

The Reapers used their influence to turn the town against the church. Businesses refused to serve the parishioners, and locals avoided places owned by the church’s members. Even their children at school were ignored by classmates. Toeing the line, Topher instructed me to avoid a kid in my class, or I’d get a beating.

I don’t know what happened to the Righteous Kingdom. At some point over the years, a storage unit facility replaced the church. They were lucky, though, that Cooper Johansson acts as a benevolent tyrant. Most killers with an army at their disposal wouldn’t let troublemakers live long enough to be ignored.

Lily didn’t grow up knowing everything her father and his men were capable of, and I envy her innocence. My siblings and the Roche
