NINETEEN

Reno

“You look like shit.”

“Thanks, beauty queen,” snarked Reno, feeling ten kinds of tired as he strode in step with Axel. They crossed the street after parking the bikes, heading toward Chains’ house. It was the first time he was having a cookout since his wife’s sister got killed; he wanted everyone to rally around Monroe. The club took care of its own. So, though he was dog tired, here Reno was, coming with his appetite, hoping he could stay awake long enough to chow down a chicken.

“You worried about DeCastro?” Axel slowed his step, which meant Reno had to follow suit. Not in the mood for a heart-to-heart, he was about to tell the prez that when Axel clapped him on the shoulder, holding a tight grip.

“If you and Ruin wanna get away for a bit, it’s fine.”

Reno’s lip curled with offense. “Run away like pussies?”

“No,” the prez answered in a steady tone, “take a step back. It’s fucking with your head, brother, you’re out all hours hunting for him. DeCastro will show his hand when he’s ready to. You know that more than most. No one is gonna think less of you for wanting to distance yourself from this. We got your back. You know that, yeah?”

Had anyone else said it to him, Reno would have gone ballistic.

He didn’t back off from his problems, he’d never run away.

In times of grief and trouble, Axel was more like a general than the ruler of an MC. Being on the end of an attack from the Mexicans had changed Axel. He hadn’t been Mary Poppins before. Far from it, he’d done enough dirty work to earn his place in Hell alongside them all. But now, after his house was bombed, and they’d worked diligently to get the Mexican soldiers who’d done it, Axel was more machine to protect those they cared about.

To protect the town, they’d worked their balls off to make it into a decent, thriving place again. He was like a God to the townspeople he’d given promises to.

But in these times, he was the man Reno swore fealty to right before he got his club patch. It was because of Axel he was still around. Who else would have taken in the DeCastro twins?

Reno owed him a lot for giving them a place to belong, a purpose, a reason not to eat the end of a gun.

He shook his head. “I’m not running from this, Axel. If I’m not the one to kill him, I’ll be there when it happens. If I’m tired of hunting, he’s tired of hiding.”

“He’ll fuck up, eventually.” Axel’s authoritarian rumble dropped some of Reno’s tension from his shoulders. His feet crunched the gravel walkway of Chains’ backyard as he reached over the gate to grab the lock, pushing it open. Already some brothers were there, lounging around, laughing, and drinking. More of his tension faded.

“Come on,” Axel said, “let’s get you shit-faced. Or you got a date with your woman later?”

Axel knew everything. He paid attention to every inch of the club.
