Chapter Eight

Michael left the clubhouse alive, and that was more than he thought would ever be possible. He was just about to leave the main door, but stopped when he saw Kelsey standing there. She was smiling down at her son, who was walking beside her, and in her arms was another boy.

He stopped and looked at her. It had been a few years since he had last seen her. She still worked as a dental nurse but only part-time now because she had started a family.

When she looked up, the smile on her face slowly ebbed away.

“Hello, Kelsey,” he said.

“Michael? What are you doing here?”

“Don’t worry. I’m not here to cause trouble. I just came to do some business.”

“With The Skulls?”

“Yes, with them.” He reached out and stroked the kid’s cheek. “You’re happy.”

“Yes, I am. Wait, does Killer know you’re here?”

“He does.” He glanced back at the room. “Though he’s not too happy about this, and I can see you’re nervous.”

“I’m not nervous. It has just been a long time since I saw you, and a lot has changed.”

“You’re a married woman with a family,” he said.

“I am, yes. Very happy.”

He smiled, and he was so pleased to see that she’d found that happiness. “I’ve got to get going, Kelsey.” Without another glance at her, he climbed into his car, and headed toward the hotel room. Keeping in touch with The Skulls had been a hard decision for him to make. They had known of the mistakes he’d made, but with The Skulls coming away from their life of running drugs and guns, he’d wanted to reconnect. He believed they could be a lot of help, and after the last woman he failed to help, he’d been looking at alternative ways to help people live through hardships.

Pulling out his cell phone, he stared at the picture of a woman that he’d not been able to save. This was why he worked hard to catch the bastards that prey on the weak. He would make sure that nothing happened to innocent people again.

Later that day, Sally waited near the men’s changing room. When she saw Luke appearing, she gave him a wave and pointed for them to talk in a private spot.

“Tell me it worked.”

“It worked, and it did really well. I wanted to ask you a favor.”

“Anything. What about, erm, a copy?” he said. “Do Whizz or Lash know that I’m speaking the truth?”

She nodded. “Yes, they totally do. Honestly, it’s fine. They know that you’re innocent, and they’ve even got sound where one of the women said that they would continue to make your life hell if you didn’t comply and all that. What I wanted to ask is if I could take a copy to show the son of one of the women.” She held her hands together, waiting for his response.

“Why would you want to do that?” Luke asked.

“Let’s just say the son is having a hard time, and they keep pressuring him. This could help him.
