I scroll through the pictures Kristen sent me of the new bouquet of flowers. It’s become somewhat of a ritual. After every date — every night spent together — I send her something new. It's been a few months since our distinguishing first date. Since that night, we have been inseparable. Well, as inseparable as we can be. Kristen is one busy woman. Constantly going to meetings and traveling, I have to fight for every second, but each battle is worth it, because when I’m with her, I’m a different man. There’s a happiness inside me I’ve never believed in. A peace I didn’t know existed. I’m pushing fifty years old, and I thought I experienced the spectrum, but once again life proves to me I don’t know jack shit.

“Gahhh.” Two bodies slam into the bar to next to me.

“Hey, Pops.” Ky smiles with Breaker in a headlock. Rough housing is nuthin’ uncommon around here. I take a look around the dimly lit room. This bar has been my home for as long as I can remember, and now it’s my son’s home too. I’ve tried to picture Kristen here time after time, but she never fits in. She’s too beautiful, refined, classy, successful — I can go on and on — for this dumpy place. Hell, for this dumpy guy, but for some reason, she has taken a liking to me, and I sure as hell have taken a liking to her. A liking so strong and potent she makes me question what’s truly important in my life. Makes me question what I really want and who I really want to be. An MC prez is really all I ever saw myself being. It’s the world I grew up in. It was a title bestowed to me like a prince from a king. Only my riches were drugs and guns and easy women. I did solid work trying to clean this club’s image up, but once a biker, always a biker, and always a reputation you shall have. Not that it’s ever bothered me. I like riding on the rugged side of the road. I like putting people on edge when I walk into a room. I like intimidation. It’s who you have to be when you’re the leader of a bunch of recklooses like these.

“We’re gonna get a poker game going tonight, you in?” Ky continues to wrestle with Breaker, tightening his chokehold.

“Not tonight, kid. Got plans.” I place my phone screen-side down and take a sip of my whiskey.

“Again?” Ky is both baffled and annoyed. We haven't been spending too much time together since Kristen waltzed into my life. “You got some ole lady you ain’t tellin’ us about?”

I scoff, swallowing the warm liquid as calmly as possible. Am I that obvious, or does Ky just think like his ole man?

“Don’t be ridiculous.”

“Then come on, old timer, show us what you’ve got,” he challenges me, releasing Breaker from his hold.

“Be careful who you’re callin’ old,” I warn. “I can still kick your ass.
