“A, don’t be a sore loser, Jig,” Mav called as Jig headed off to Copper’s office, walking like a ood mood proved a formidable man Copper in a bad mood…Mav shuddered

No thanks

Jig gave the door a light knock “The fuck you want?” Copper bellowed

Without turning around, Jig held histheir asses off at the bar

COPPER

The words replayed again and again in his head as though on a repeat loop Shell was having a baby

Nothing else penetrated hisair as he’d ridden his bike in the thirty-seven-degree weather Not the business with the Chrome Disciples Not the burn of the Scotch he’d pulled from his desk drawer Not the look of complete devastation on Shell’s face as he lost his shit and screamed at her

Nothing but the baby h his skull and into his neurons

A sharp rap on the door jerked his attention away fro at “The fuck you want?” he yelled

With a grunt, Copper pulled two glasses out of the sa himself three times as much as he’d usually drink, he held the bottle over the other glass and cocked his head at Jig

“None for o at any second You knohat that woman will do to me if I show up tanked?”

Fuck, he was really off his ga’s kid was past due to be born “Shit, wasn’t thinking Sorry”

With a shrug, Jig leaned back in the chair and propped his ankle on his opposite leg “Ain’t a thing You and Shell get into it?”
