The Biker's Fate Chapter 611
Cash
The next morning, I dropped Teagan at home before heading to my sister's condo. I needed to have a conversation with my sister about her putting her safety at risk.
My brother, Archer, met me at her front door and the second she pulled it open, I growled, "What the hell, Ducky? Why the fuck were you at Elixir without us at your back?"
Without warning, my face was suddenly shoved into the wall, and one arm was forced behind my back. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?" a deep voice snarled.
Daisy gasped, Archer pulled out his gun, and I just chuckled.
"Oh my god, Arch, put that away." Daisy turned to the guy behind me, reaching for his arm. "It's okay, Huck, these are—"
Before she could say anything further, cell phones pealed in the silence of the hallway.
I rolled my shoulders. "Get the fuck off me, man."
"No," Huck snapped.
"Hi, Mama," Daisy breathed out as Archer said, "Hey, Pops."
I heard my dad's voice coming through the phone, but Archer walked away while Daisy continued to speak with our mother.
"Hold on, Mom," she said, and then, "Huck, that's my brother, Cash. Can you please let him go?"
He gave me one more shove before releasing me, and I scowled as I pushed off the wall.
"Thank you," Daisy said, then went back to her call. "Okay, Mom, it's all good now. Can I call you back? Yes, Archer's talking to Daddy now." She sighed. "Will you please talk him down off the ledge?" She glanced Huck's way. "Daddy absolutely does not need to come here. No. I have finals next week and I have to study. If he comes down here beating his chest, just like Cash and Archer did, then I'm going to lose my ever-loving shit, and I'll be forced to forget I'm a lady."
I raised an eyebrow as my sister mean mugged me, waiting to see if she backed it up with words.
"Okay, Mama. Thanks." She smiled. "Love you, too. Bye." She hung up and slid her phone into her pocket, then crossed her arms. "Cash, this is Huck. Huck, meet Cash."
We both glared at each other, and Daisy sighed. "Jesus, why can't I just have quiet, meek men in my orbit?"
Archer came jogging up a few seconds later and Daisy turned to him. "Did you talk him down?"
He shrugged. "Not sure."
She threw her hands in the air and let out a frustrated squeak. "Big brothers, get inside. Now." Turning to Huck with a grimace, she said, "Huck, I'm sorry these two idiot-sticks dragged you into our family drama. They're good guys, well, mostly. But I'm sure you have more important things to do than worry about me and my dumbass siblings. I'm so sorry they wasted your time."
I followed my siblings inside, and Daisy turned on us. "Oh my god, if I had time to murder both of you, I would."
"Who's the douche?" I asked.
"First, he's not a douche," she hissed. "And he's Louisa's boyfriend."
Archer groaned. "Fuck, your hot neighbor's got a man?"
"Can we please stop talking about Huck?" she snapped. "Why are you here?"
"Because you went to Elixir without one of us having your back and you took Teagan who's underage," I said, in a 'duh' tone.
I was admittedly being kind of a dick considering I didn't give Teagan this much grief, but in my defense, Teagan was my woman, not my baby sister, so there was a different dynamic there.
At least, that's what I told myself.
"I didn't take anyone anywhere. She surprised me with a girls' night out for my birthday." Daisy let out a frustrated squeal. "Not that I need to justify my actions to you two dickheads."
"The second you got there, you should have texted one of us," I said.
"Why?" she challenged.
"Because—"
Before I could finish my sentence, someone pounded on Daisy's door and then it opened, revealing our father.
Daisy settled her hands on her hips. "Really, Daddy?"
"Baby girl, some random asshole puts his hands on my kid, you don't think I'm gonna do somethin' about that?"
The hallway was wired for picture and sound, and it went so much further than a doorbell cam. My parents, the club, me and Archer, and Daisy had access to over six cameras outside my sister's building, in the stairwell, elevators, on her floor, and directly outside her door. My father would have known the second Huck made contact with me and was probably on his bike before my face hit the wall.
Daisy threw her hands in the air. "He thought they were threatening me!"
"And why the fuck would some random guy care if your brothers were threatenin' you?"
"First of all, he didn't know they were my brothers and second of all, I would hope that anyone would care if someone, anyone, regardless of who they were, would be concerned if I were being threatened, and that you would also want said anyone to care if I were being threatened, and be happy they did something to stop it," she screeched.
"Well, those were a lot of words there, Ducky," Dad murmured, stroking his beard with an amused expression on his face.
Daisy looked like she was about to cry, and I had no idea why.
"Aw, don't cry, Ducky," Archer said, pulling her in for a hug.
"I'm not crying because I need a hug, Arch," she snapped. "I'm crying because it's my body's way of releasing stress and negative emotions. The kind of emotions that make me want to murder you."
He stepped back slowly, raising his hands in surrender.
"Okay, boys, head out," Dad said. "I've got Ducky."
This was our cue, so we hugged our sister, and Archer and I headed to our bikes in the garage.
"Do you really think Louisa's got a man?" Archer asked.
"Why do you care?" I asked as I swung my leg over my bike.
"Because she's fuckin' hot."
"And not interested in your ass, brother," I pointed out.
"Yet," he said with a lopsided grin.
What we would quickly come to find out was that Huck wasn't Louisa's man, he was her brother, and he was about to rock our sister's world.
