Chapter 40
BACK AT JOKERS MC
Kim finished Raven’s hair and she was ecstatic over it.
“You are a genius! So, I hate to ask, but the girls are begging me to ask if you would style their hair for the wedding tomorrow?” Raven asked.
“Sure, why not.” Kim smiled.
“And would you please stay for the wedding?” Raven begged.
“Yeah, I can do that. I have nothing else to do. Nothing waiting for me.” Kim agreed.
“Ah come on. A gorgeous woman like you has no man?” Raven asked.
“Recent break up.” Kim explained.
“Girlfriend tell me all about it.” Raven replied.
Kim told her what happened, leaving out the MC part.
“I know what’s wrong, you need a real man, a biker!” Raven smiled.
“Umm, have you heard of the Veterans MC?” Kim asked.
“Of course. Their Prez is Bear’s son Jax.” Raven replied.
“Are y’all rivals?” Kim asked.
“God no. We’re allies as far as I know. Our clubs have coexisted peacefully since Blackjack took over almost 40 years ago. Now his son took over and is following in his footsteps. He believes as his father did.” Raven explained.
“Ok. I hope me telling you this doesn’t create a problem, but the guy I told you about? His MC name is Ice. He’s their VP.” Kim replied.
“Oh my God! Would they be missing you? Do they know my Tank took you? Oh, my this is bad! Really bad! We need to tell Tank ASAP!” Raven warned.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know if you were rivals. That could go very bad for me if you were. So, I thought it was safer not to mention them.” Kim replied.
“I get it. But we need to tell Tank and the Prez and contact your MC before they do something stupid like raid us!” Raven replied.
She grabbed Kim’s hand and ran to find Tank and the Prez.

“Ok everyone locked and loaded in case we need to go in?” Jax asked. Everyone nodded.
“Ok I want 5 stationed on the left, 5 on the right just to watch and keep me informed. Steele you guys good in the back?” Jax asked.
“Yeah Prez. Everything is quite here. Just waiting on your ordered.” Steele replied.
“What are we waiting on?” Ice demanded. “We need to storm in now!”
“Ice cool your shit! I want everyone in position and I’m not just going to storm in there guns a blazing!” Jax replied.
Just then his phone vibrated. He answered it.
“Hello?” Jax answered.
“I believe I have something that belongs to you.” BJ Jr. replied.
“I’m listening.” Jax replied.
“Call your men off and this can end peacefully. I swear we had no idea who she was, and she is unharmed and treated as a guest.” BJ Jr. replied.
“You know I can’t take your word for it. I need proof.” Jax replied.
“I know. If I let you talk to her is that enough proof?” BJ Jr. asked.
“Maybe, let me talk to her.” Jax replied.
BJ Jr. handed Kim the phone.
“Jax?” Kim asked.
“Kim? Are you ok? Hurt?” Jax asked.
“Yes, I’m fine Jax. Listen this was all a big misunderstanding. Please don’t do anything crazy. I’m so sorry. It’s not what you think! I promise.” Kim explained.
“Did they take you there against your will?” Jax asked.
“Yes, but it’s complicated, trust me.” Kim assured him.
BJ Jr. took the phone back. “Listen Jax, you can come in and hear the whole story and then leave with her. You have my word. I don’t want any trouble between our clubs. We have survived peacefully for a long time.”
“Ok and has she been harmed? You’ll let her leave with me?” Jax asked.
“She has not been touched, and she’s free to leave anytime.” He confirmed.
“I need my VP with me, or he’ll lose his shit.” Jax explained.
“Ok fine. But just the two of you. You get the rest of your men to back off.” BJ Jr. replied.
“Fine. We’re coming in.” Jax replied.
Jax and Ice entered the clubhouse. Someone showed them to an office. BJ, Tank, Raven, and Kim were inside. Ice rushed over to Kim and grabbed her looking her over.
“Are you hurt? Did they touch you?” He demanded.
“No, they didn’t. I promise I’m fine. They treated me like a guest.” Kim assured him.
“Let’s sit. Drink anyone?” BJ Jr. asked.
Everyone sat down. Ice pulled Kim down on to his lap.
“She yours?” He asked.
“Yes!” Ice replied.
“No.” Kim replied at the same time.
She looked at Ice with disbelief.
“I’m afraid this is my fault. You see me and Tank are getting married tomorrow. I went to Kim’s salon on Monday to get my hair done. You’re supposed to get highlights a few days in advance before pictures.” Raven explained.
“Yes, that’s true.” Kim agreed.
“Anyway, Kim’s manager refused me services due to my MC status. She was downright rude. Told me she wouldn’t allow my kind to start coming in.” Raven replied.
“Kim here stood up to her and said she would do my hair. But that bitch refused to even let Kim work on my hair. Her and Kim had words about it. Kim told her she wouldn’t work with a stuck-up snooty bitch like her and she quit.” Raven explained.
“Yep, all true.” Kim agreed.
“Tank was out of town and when he got home this morning, I told him what happened. So, he went to the salon to confront the manager. He was just going to scare her. Maybe give her a messy shop.” Raven replied.
“But instead, he ran into me when I went there to get my last paycheck. He asked me to get the supplies I needed and brought me here to do Raven’s hair.” Kim explained.
“So, this is all over a hair appointment?” Jax asked incredulously.
“I’m afraid so. See my old man wanted me to be happy and to have my perfect wedding. He meant well, but he shouldn’t have made Kim come here.” Raven replied.
“So, your boyfriend kidnapped her?” Ice retorted.
“Yes! And he’s so sorry about it, right Tank?” Raven warned.
“Yes baby. I handled it all wrong.” Tank agreed.
“So why not just let her call us?” Jax asked.
“Up until about 30 minutes ago, we didn’t know she belonged to your club. Kim didn’t say anything until then.” BJ Jr. replied.
“He’s right. I was afraid your clubs might be rivals. I was afraid they would use me against you.” Kim explained.
“Fucking hell Kim! Call Raine and let her know you’re ok. She’s been highly upset. And it’s not good for the baby.” Jax replied.
Jax gave Kim his phone. She called Raine and explained it all to her. She assured her she was fine.
