Chapter Twenty-Three

Grinder

Hatred can make a man reckless. I made an effort to stop storing hate in my heart years ago. Instead, I deal with the things that piss me off, then move on.

But tonight, an angry burn hovers in my chest. The looks a few of my brothers cast Serena’s way as we enter the party leave me struggling not to throw punches.

“Finally!” Z shouts. “Our guest of honor has joined us!” He waves us toward the bar.

Growling under my breath, I keep Serena close. My hand at the small of her back, I maneuver her slightly ahead of me so I can see how people react to her. Brothers who give her anything less than a friendly hello are going on my beatdown at a later point in time list.

“Oh!” Lilly lets out a husky laugh and throws her arms around Serena, hugging her tight in front of everyone. “I love this dress!”

She continues fawning over Serena, curling her arm around her shoulders like a momma cat claiming one of her kittens. The two of them step aside and Z grabs me in a rib-cracking hug.

“You keep making a spectacle of me, and I’m gonna gut you in your sleep,” I say close to his ear.

“Aw, come on.” He slaps my back. “I’m just happy you’re finally here to see the place. Lotta people want to pay their respects to you too.”

I swallow my annoyance and pat Z’s shoulder. “You’ve got a good setup here, brother. Proud of you.”

“Thanks. I’m still getting used to things, but I’ve got a solid crew around me now.” The corners of his mouth curl into an impish smirk. “Always room for improvement, though.”

“Sorry, brother.” Rock joins us. “I warned him not to go overboard.”

Z grins wider. “I’m just so happy we’re all here.”

Z’s love for the club and his brothers is infectious and chases away my annoyance at having the spotlight on me. “Thanks for the room you assigned us. It’s nice.”

“Hell, yeah. Nothing but the best for you.”

My eyes find Serena, the best thing that’s happened to me yet.
