I angle my chin at Willa, and Steel follows my line of sight. \u201cYeah.\u201d He slaps my shoulder. \u201cWe need to get the girls out of here. Church in thirty. I want everyone there.\u201d I nod, pulling out my phone to shoot off a text. Around me, everyone\u2019s phones ping. Church is often reserved for ranked members.<\/p>\n

Tonight, that won\u2019t be the case. What happened is a matter for the entire club. And Steel won\u2019t stop until he gets to the bottom of it. I leave Legacy and Steel on the patio to head inside to check on Willa. She\u2019s still frozen when I reach for her hand. My fingers lace through hers, and she jumps.<\/p>\n

\u201cSorry.\u201d She rubs the heel of her hand on her chest. \u201cYou scared me.\u201d \u201cYou all right?\u201d I scan her, grabbing her face and forcing her eyes to me when she tries to look away. She nods, pressing her lips in a firm line as her eyes gloss over. She\u2019s watching me, but she\u2019s somewhere else in her mind, and I have a feeling I know where that is.<\/p>\n

\u201cTalk to me, princess.\u201d I brush my thumb over the apple of her cheek. \u201cI just\u2014you could have died.\u201d A tear slips free. I catch it with my thumb. \u201cYou were worried about me?\u201d \u201cOf course I was.\u201d The warmth that fills my chest burns me up from the inside out. My stomach meets my throat. What happened tonight was nothing special except that it happened at our clubhouse. But as far as shoot-outs go, I\u2019ve been in the line of fire more times than I can count.<\/p>\n

No one worries about me or wonders if I\u2019ll make it out the other side. If I take a bullet or a blade, it\u2019s stitched up, and I walk away. Living on the brink of death is a part of being in this life. But as Willa blinks back tears, I suddenly see what\u2019s been changing around the club lately.<\/p>\n

My brothers have been increasing security and leaning into our legal businesses. Especially Steel and Legacy, who have kids to worry about. This is what it\u2019s like to have someone sitting around wondering if you\u2019ll come home in one piece\u2014if you\u2019ll come home at all. I\u2019ve never cared much about my mortality or who I am outside of being a part of this club.<\/p>\n

But staring into Willa\u2019s eyes has me questioning everything. \u201cI\u2019m all right, see.\u201d I pat my chest. \u201cNo bullets.\u201d She nods, glancing at the patio again. \u201cEyes on me, Willa.\u201d Her gaze snaps to mine. \u201cNothing happened to me. I\u2019m all right. Now I want you to go with Luna for a little bit while I take care of things with the guys.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll come and get you when I\u2019m done.\u201d Luna stops at our side, and Willa flinches because she didn\u2019t see her walking up. But I did.<\/p>\n

I lean against the brick wall, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it while I wait for my brother to finish football practice across town. I\u2019m sick of being his babysitter when we\u2019re barely a year apart in age, but at least waiting for him gets me out of the house and away from my asshole stepfather. Sometimes I sit and think about what life could have been like if Mom hadn\u2019t moved on the second Dad bailed when I was born.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
