“Your footing is shit.” Show shoves the poor fighter back with one hand and he stumbles backward. “I shouldn’t be able to knock you over with a feather.” Show does it again when he gets back into place. “Plant them here and here. Good, now use your core to keep your balance.” Once more Show shoves at the guy, only this time he doesn’t move as much. “Better, you need some more core strength. Show me your jab.”

“I think the kid might be growing on him,” Roman muses with a light laugh as he takes a seat next to me on the bleachers. Bodger gets excited about having a newcomer. He gets up and starts wagging his tail for Roman’s attention, which he gives freely.

“You guys are always so mean to the prospects.”

“It’s good for them. We took our shit just like anyone else.” Roman ruffles the fur on Bodger’s head, messing it up before smoothing it out again. “Can I ask you something?” Reluctantly, I nod. The interaction I have had with Roman in the past isn’t something I would like to think about, especially the most recent image of him fucking Reni. “You still in love with Brood?” The words settle like lead in the bottom of my stomach. At first, I think I should just stand up and walk away but then I look out at Show. Our eyes connect and a faint smile crosses his face before he goes back to instructing Poe.

“Not that it is any of your business Roman, but no. I’m not in love with Brood. I don’t really think I ever was.” I take in a deep breath and let it out.

“Do you love Show?”

“Are you writing a book, Roman? Maybe one on relationships? Because last time I checked you weren’t doing too great in that department yourself. Maybe you should worry about your own love life instead of prying into mine.” I snap out the words before I can get a handle on myself, my face falling when I realize what I just did. Club girl, old lady, hell, even the president’s wife; you are not allowed to disrespect a brother. That is what I just did.

The muscle in his jaw ticks but he holds steady. “That man has been in love with you since your ass walked into this clubhouse on the arm of one of his brothers. He’s had to sit by and watch as you chose to be with everyone around here but him. So, excuse the fuck out of me if I want to make damn sure you aren’t just using him to be closer to Brood.” His words drag a deep gash down the center of my soul.

“Getting married was his idea. Not mine.”

“Women are master manipulators. Wouldn’t even surprise me to find out you planted some sort of seed in his head.” Roman has always been a jerk but right now he is really showing another side of himself. One I can remember him showing to Pria in a very public way.
