Coby watched as Kip moved in for the kiss, Mia’s arms falling around him. ‘Shit!’ Throwing his cigarette down he violently ground it into the concrete, throwing himself back against the wall. ‘Shit!’

He’d had his suspicions, and he wished he’d been wrong, but as he pulled his phone out of his pocket he knew this was a call he had to make. Just a quick call, but long enough for another layer of crap to be thrown on to the already growing pile. Coby was beginning to think the past few months had just been some kind of cruel dream. All those plans to become a club for the community had been going so well, things had been good. The peace and calm had suited him just fine, yet here they were, back in the middle of something he’d hoped to avoid – conflict and danger and secrets that could pull lives apart. More secrets. More shit ready to hit the fan.

Balling his hands into fists he closed his eyes, leaning back against the wall, taking a few seconds to compose himself before making his way back into the clubhouse. Lexi was with Angie in the kitchen, helping her throw together a huge pot of chilli con carne for dinner. Everyone loved a chilli, and Angie Farlow made the best in town, as far as he was concerned. But, right now, the last thing on Coby’s mind was food. ‘I need a word, darlin’.’

Lexi looked at him. ‘Now?’

Coby’s expression gave her the answer to that one.

‘I’ll be back as soon as I can, Mum.’

‘Is everything okay?’ Angie asked, her eyes darting between Coby and her daughter.

‘Everything’s fine.’ At least, that’s what Lexi hoped. But as she looked over at Coby again, she felt nothing but a bad feeling rising. ‘I won’t be long.’

She followed Coby out to the apartment at the rear of the clubhouse, closing the door behind them.

‘What’s up?’ she asked, watching as he leaned back against the sideboard, folding his arms, his eyes looking out of the small window by the bed rather than at her. Which did nothing to avert her fears.

‘Your brother’s out there, with Mia.’

Lexi frowned. ‘Okay. And… the problem with that is?’

Coby’s eyes finally met hers. ‘They’re kissing.’

Lexi’s frown deepened. ‘I’m sorry, Coby, but if you’re trying to tell me Kip and Mia are having some kind of affair…’

‘I hope to God they’re not, darlin’.’

‘What…? Hang on… I’m confused here. I mean, it’s not right, if Kip’s trying it on with Mia when he knows her and Ben…’

‘We have to stop them, Lexi.’

Lexi’s confusion was growing now. Why was Coby suddenly so concerned about anyone else’s fidelity? She wasn’t happy with the fact Kip was playing on Mia’s current vulnerability, because it was obvious to everyone that she and Ben were having some problems, but, that kind of thing didn’t usually concern Coby in the slightest, unless it could kick up shit for the club. ‘Why?’ Lexi asked slowly, her mind suddenly racing.
