In The Blood

Chapter 14


When Stahl stood in the doorway, she noticed Hale boxing up his stuff. "Finally got the promotion, huh?" She asked, trying to make small talk.

Looking up at her, he considered ignoring her completely, but smirked instead. "I heard about your demotion," he sneered. "How many innocent people are you going to get killed this time before you leave?" He stared at her.

Just as Hale was making that last comment, Unser was walking by. "Is there a problem here?" He asked calmly.

For a moment, Stahl kept looking at Hale, but he didn't soften at all. She tuned to Unser.

"I was looking for you, actually. Wondering if you had anything on Gemma yet?" She asked innocently.

"All we've got is a lead saying that she was heading to North Canada, that's it and you've been barred from the funeral, no one wants you there. Especially the Teller Morrow, Winston, Telford and Delaney families." David said coldly but Stahl got the warning loud and clear.

If she even tried going to the funeral, the officers wouldn't help her as she glared at them both angrily and saw Harper Delaney saying goodbye to Maggie Laveau.

She decided to try talking to Harper Delaney again.


As it got into late afternoon, a lot of teenagers had come into the bar and were enjoying themselves as Harper served them all a root beer and two cokes as she finished talking to Remy Deveraux, one of her best friends and the president of the SACMNO Charter in New Orleans on the phone.

"We're keepin' an eye out for Cameron but word on the street is that Jimmy O' is planning a takeover against Father Ashby." Remy said grimly and Harper frowned.

"Isn't he the priest?"

Just as Harper finished speaking, Stahl walked up. "Can I speak to you, Ms. Delaney?" She asked politely.

Rolling her eyes, Harper smiled at her friends, and then took Stahl back to her office in the bar. "Just get this over with. What do you want?" She asked bluntly when the door to her office was shut.

Stahl wasn't surprised by the woman's bluntness. "I just wanted to get more of your statement about yesterday. You said the Irish man, whom none of you knew, just came in, killed Kip, tied you up and killed the baby?" She asked patiently.

Nodding, Harper shrugged. "He was ranting about sons. I couldn't really understand it. He used the gun to keep us all away as he approached Abel. He was picking up a knife, about to cut the baby when Kip rushed him. The Irishman turned, and stabbed Kip in the gut. He bled out in my sister's arms, and then the guy ushered us all into the nursery. He held the gun on us, making Tara tie us up one by one, until he tied her up in the chair. Then he left. That's all I know," she said.

"Alright. Thank you for your time. By any chance, do you have any idea what happened to Gemma?" Stahl asked, even though she knew she wouldn't get an answer.

Shaking her head, Harper laughed mockingly. "You can't even find a baby, what makes you think you can find Gemma. Maybe, we'd all be able to remember something if you found the eight month old child first," she said, and Stahl nodded, turning to go.

Before Stahl left, Harper called for her to wait, so she turned, hand on the doorknob. "You stay away from my sister. Or you'll have me, and a whole lot of other people who care about her, to deal with. Her boyfriend, the man she loved, died yesterday, bled out in her arms. She does not need to be badgered by you. You've got enough statements," she said warningly.

Without saying anything, Stahl nodded, turning and leaving.

Harper watched her go, feeling angry and by God did she want to punch that bitch but restrained herself as she served up more customers as she saw Lowell and Lyla come in for a coffee and something to eat as Moby and Piper were with them.

"Here you are, one coffee, one hot chocolate and two milkshakes." She said softly as they talked while Moby and Piper ate their burgers and milkshakes.

"Any news on Abel?" Harper asked hopefully and Lowell shook his head sadly, he'd heard from Jax that there had been no Timothy Lane in the database leaving the country.

And that wasn't good news.

"We'll find him." Lyla said positively as she rested a hand over her three month bump, Lowell held her close protectively and Harper nodded as she left to tend to the other patrons as Elliot Oswald came in and nodded at her before talking to Tristen.

Harper just hoped they found baby Abel soon.


Chibs ran a hand through his mane of dark hair that had streaks of grey as he entered the bar and saw everyone was wearing black in honour of Half - Sack.

Harper was wearing a black silk blouse and a black pair of jeans as she smiled at him gently and he smiled back as he and Kozik came in with Harley who had joined them, her eyes red rimmed.

Chibs walked over to Harper, Harley and Kozik and gave Harper a hug. He also gave Harley a hug, then they headed up to the casket. Harper and Harley were in the middle, their arms linked together, and Chibs on the other side of Harper holding her hand. Kozik was at Harley's side, his hand held lightly to the middle of her back to remind her that he was there.

The four of them stood silently, as Harley cried more, and Harper felt tears fall down her cheeks. Kozik rubbed Harley's back lightly, and Chibs and Harper clutched each other's hands like they were lifelines.

The other three waited for Harley's go ahead before they walked away. Harley kissed her fingers and placed them on his kutte, nodding that it was okay for them to take their seats. Chibs crossed himself and the four of them walked away, taking seats with the club.

They all watched as the local priest Father Miguel Sanchez performed the funeral and spoke quietly but fondly of Half - Sack and Chibs wished Gemma was here.

It felt strange without her here acting as the Queen of SAMCRO and they all stood up as Chibs, Kozik, Tig, Opie and Jax carried the coffin to be buried beside his adoptive parents and his biological parents as they went outside.

As it was approaching autumn, the air was chilly and Harley held Harper and Tara's hands tightly as Donna stood beside her along with Lowell and Lyla along with the children.

Half - Sack's grave was slowly filled up and everyone watched as the grave was filled up, putting Half - Sack at rest before a group of men driving past in a black tinted car opened fire on them.

Jacob Hale was standing in the middle of the street during the drive-by. Everyone was looking at the woman who was clutching her young son, who had been shot in the shoulder, so no one noticed immediately when he was hit with the vehicle.

David was the first to notice that his brother had been hit, and ran to his side, he was alive but barely. David began shooting after the car, which caused the driver to start swerving and the shooter fell out.

Standing in the middle of all the chaos, Jax looked around, and a rage filled him. Not just at these Mexicans. At the Irish who were keeping his son from him, as well. He thought about what Clay had said, and it didn't take him long to decide.

Pushing through the crowd, Jax shoved a cop who was trying to keep the crowd back, and jumped on the Mexican, who was the only one here to unleash his anger on. He grabbed the back of his head and started repeatedly bashing his face into the street.

No one protested and watched as the man got what he deserved before Chibs, Opie and Clay dragged Jim away as Jacob was taken to the hospital in a critical condition, having been shot near his spine.

Jesus Christ.


Everyone waited at the hospital as they saw Tara come out looking grim but relived as she gently shook David awake and he quickly got up looking anxious.

"Your brother is very lucky he survived but I suggest that he at least rests for two weeks as the bullet nearly paralysed him." Tara said seriously.

David nodded in relief and nodded in thanks to the Sons as he went to see his older brother.

"Fucking Mayans." Tig cursed angrily.


After Tara left the hospital, she ended up at Harper and Harley's house. She was not surprised that Chibs was there. She was mildly surprised that Kozik was there, but not too much, since she had seen them at the funeral together.

Harper opened the door and let her in, despite the late hour. "I'm sorry. Jax is in holding, and there's no one at the house. I didn't want to be alone," Tara explained.

Pulling her into a hug, Harper nodded. "Of course. You can come over any time," she said, showing Tara to a guest bedroom before going back to her bed and Chibs.


Chibs sat in the bedroom that he shared with Harper as she came back into the room after letting Tara in abd curled into his side, he held her close as he saw the faded scars from her ordeal with Jason Gallagher four years ago.

He wanted nothing more than to kill that bastard.

"What are you thinking about?" Harper asked quietly as she listened to his heartbeat, Chibs had gone without a t - shirt on and showed off his scarred, tattooed but toned chest off.

"Them." Chibs said darkly and Harper looked down then, she knew Chibs would think about Jason Gallagher, Fiona and Jimmy O'.

"I'm sorry, Filip." She said sadly.

Shaking his head, Chibs reached out and touched her face. "You have nothin' to be sorry for, love," he told her, pressing a kiss to her forehead.

Sighing, Harper nodded, leaning her head against his shoulder. Her hand rested on his thigh, unintentionally close to his manhood.

Neither of them noticed it initially, as they sat together. Chibs hand trailed lightly up and down her arm, giving her chills up and down her spine, in a good way, and they both felt it.

Harper looked down at her hand, then up at Chibs. A nice distraction right now was so welcome. They were both thinking the same thing, and their lips met in a kiss that quickly turned passionate.

Harper wrapped her arms around him tightly as he pulled her into him and kissed her back as she tangled her fingers into his dark brown hair, causing him to growl.

She smiled and Chibs felt something inside him ease up then, Harper loved him for who he was even though he had done things that were horrible and had killed people.

"I love ya." Chibs said softly as he cupped her face in his rough hands and she smiled up at him as she held him tightly and then they kissed again.

"I love you too." Harper said tenderly and curled into him as he pulled off her tank top, she was now only wearing a black night bra abd Chibs growled.

Reaching behind her, Chibs unhooked her bra, while kissing her neck. Harper moaned softly in his ear, trying to keep quiet due to the full house.

Laying down on the bed, Harper pulled Chibs with her, so he was on top of her as they continued to kiss. She reached down and undid his jeans and he stood briefly to let them and his boxers drop to his feet and he stepped out of them.

Once those were out of the way, Chibs playfully jumped back onto the bed on top of her, causing Harper to giggle. She put her hand over her mouth and gave him a look. "We are NOT the only people in this house," she scolded softly.

Chibs didn't care if the whole club was out there. He was going to have her. He descended on Harper's neck again, kissing and nipping and she ran her nails lightly up and down his back.

Chibs continued down over her shoulder and took a pebbled dusty pink nipple into his mouth. Sucking slightly, he felt her shiver. He grabbed the other nipple and slowly rolled it between his thumb and index finger. She bucked her pelvis into his abdomen and he could feel the stickiness mix in with the hair on his belly. After sucking on both her nipples, he quickly unwrapped himself from her legs.

Chibs advanced downward, placing kisses down her stomach as his hands opened her thighs. Smelling the sweetness permeating from her, he got to her knees and nuzzled the small patch of hair at the apex. He slid a finger over her slit. Calmly, he rubbed his nose against her clit and slid a finger inside her. Oh she was so warm.

Wanting to taste that warmth, he flicked her clit with his tongue. Harper hissed out but that didn't stop him. He flicked her clit again, this time with a little more force before sucking the swollen nub between his lips. Mildly nibbling it, he slid his finger knuckle deep inside her and wiggled. Feeling the walls of her cunt clinch around his finger, he removed it, only to replace it along his middle finger. Harper was so wet now. He could feel the slickness running down his palm. After a few more ministrations, Chibs took his fingers out and lapped up her juices. She was so god damned sweet. He felt like he was in heaven.

Taking his damp hand, he grabbed his cock and slowly began rubbing. All the while fucking her with his tongue. Harper's thigh muscles were spasming against his shoulders. She was writhing on the bed. Reluctantly he licked her lips once more and then stood up, between her legs. With his hand still on his cock, he leaned in and slowly but surely slipped into her. He bent over and laid his hands, palm down, on each side of her head.

They quickly fell into a rhythm, thrusting and moving together to create the best friction. Harper moaned as he nipped on her collarbone.

Reaching up to move his face, Harper kissed him again, their tongues dancing together. Chibs began to thrust quicker and Harper felt the orgasm building.

Meeting him thrust for thrust, Harper heard the low moan in Chibs' throat and knew he was coming close, too.

He felt the build-up in his balls. He could feel them contract and knew his orgasm wasn't too far away. But wanting to please and pleasure her, he tried to bite it off. He wanted her to cum first. As he was always taught, Ladies First. He sped up his course. Thrusting into Harper, hard but tame. Over and over again. Just as he was about to lose it, he felt her pussy walls clinch his dick tight and knew she was there.

One more good thrust and she was screaming out his name. "Filip!" Hearing her release, he let go of his own, feeling himself pumping his juices into her. Thank god he had remembered to apply the condom seconds before he entered her. Slumping over, but still holding his weight on his arms, he placed a kiss on Harper's lip.

As they lay in bed afterwards, Harper realized what happened and blushed as she looked over at him. "I think everyone will know what we were doing," she said sheepishly.

Laughing, Chibs placed a kiss on her forehead. "Not like they've never done it before, love," he teased, then got up to take a shower, leaving Harper in the bed.

After a few minutes she got up, putting on her underwear and then a pair of pyjama pants and a tee-shirt. Harper went downstairs, to find Harley, Tara and Kozik in the kitchen already, giving her a knowing look. "Oh stop it," she said with a laugh as she poured herself a cup of coffee.

"You two ought to do your own porn film." Harley said amused and Harper blushed then as she started cooking dinner, Agnes and Sam had given her a cook book on New Orleans recipes and right now she decided to cook jambalaya.

Tara helped her out and Harper smiled in thanks as Harley got out the andouille sausages while Kozik got out the tomatoes and bell peppers.

Chibs stood under the hot water as it soothed his aching muscles, his mind was fixed on Kerrianne and Harper, Caden and baby Abel as he washed the blood off his arms.

He then thought of the first time he had met Harper.


Harper was at the clubhouse with Harley. It was another party, and already, Harper could see that Harley was looking for the next guy she was going to take home. "Just be careful, Harl. Use protection," she told her sister.

Rolling her eyes at her younger twin, who always acted like she was older, Harley sent Harper a look. "Okay, Mom," she said amused, then spotted her target, and disappeared into the crowd so fast it was like she wasn't there.

Harper laughed to herself about her sister's antics, and scanned the crowd, looking for someone who wasn't too drunk that she actually wanted to talk to.

Suddenly, the crowd parted, and she spotted a man she'd never seen before. His back was turned to her at first, but when he turned, heading this way, she saw his scars, stretching from each corner of his mouth, toward his ears. She actually thought they were quite beautiful.

She offered him a smile and he nodded at her as she sat on the opposite bar stool beside him as she asked Randi for a Irish whisky and the Crow Eater served it to her.

Harper sipped it greedily, the burn a welcome sensation as she glanced at the mysterious stranger who was drinking his own shot of whisky quietly.

"You new here?" She asked curiously and he looked at then, he was older than her, maybe around Jax's age.

"Aye, came from the Belfast charter." Chibs explained quietly as he downed his shot of whisky and asked for another shot.

Harper was impressed.

Chibs studied the brunette. She was beautiful. She was also sexy as hell, but his first thought was she was beautiful.

Smirking, Harper held out her hand. "I'm Harper Delaney," she introduced herself.

Reaching out, Chibs was surprised. Not many people shook hands anymore. "I go by Chibs. It's Scottish for street blade," he explained, gesturing automatically to his scars.

Before Harper realized it, she was reaching out, touching his cheek. "There's something, I dunno, beautiful or poetic about them. Like, I've been through this and I can make it through anything."

When Harper realized that she was touching this complete stranger, she dropped her hand. "Sorry, you must think I'm so weird. I don't normally go around touching stranger's faces," she blushed shyly.
