14.

"Okay, what is it?" Mike asked.

"I need to know if you put a kidnapping hit out on Jax Tellers girlfriend?"

"What? Hell no."

"Would anyone else have done this?"

Mike got quiet. He didn't really want anyone to know that there was someone gunning for his position. But he knew something bad was up so he finally answered.

"Yeah, probably."

"The other day a man with niner tats tried to kidnap his girlfriend and he was shot and killed."

"Fuck, that's where he went."

"Is this the guy that was trying to take your position?"

Mike looked up surprised Happy knew of this.

"Yeah."

"Well you don't have to worry about him anymore. I just need to find out if anyone else was working with him and why would he do that?"

Mike wondered how much he should say.

"Did Tig have anything to do with this?" Happy asked.

"Look, I don't know for fact but I do know the two of them have been talking quite a bit. In fact the day he took off for some reason he was with Tig."

Happy was more surprised then. "Thanks man. If you need anything just let me or Jax know."

"Will do." they shook hands, hugged and then they went their separate ways.

"So what do you think about this?" Lisa asked.

Tara shook her head no. "Hey, do you trust me?"

"Of course." Lisa said.

Tara grabbed a couple of things she felt would be perfect and she handed them over to Lisa. "Go try these on."

Lisa went into the changing room and was surprised at how sexy she felt. They weren't trashy, just beautiful and sexy.

Lisa came out of the room with a big smile. "I hope these work."
"Honey, I believe they will."

"Now I just have to figure out how to make sure he sees them."

"I will leave that up to you." Tara said laughing.

Happy got back to the clubhouse and he went about watching Tig. He saw that Tig acted the same as he always did. Although there seem to be more conversation between Clay and him, more then normal. He knew he had to get complete proof of what he believed happened. Clay was after all his president and Gemma was Jax's mom. He was sitting on the picnic table when Jax walked up to him.

"Hey, what has you in deep thought?" Jax asked chuckling. "I mean more so than normal."

Happy looked up at Jax and knew he needed to say something. He knew he couldn't live with himself if something more happened to Tara or maybe even Abel because Jax didn't know anything.

"I uh.. I need to talk to you privately again."

"Yeah, okay. Do you want to meet somewhere?" Jax asked not wanting to bring it back to his house.

"Out at the old warehouse, maybe an hour, if that's okay."

"Sure. See you in an hour." Jax said as he walked away.

Happy looked up again and saw Tig now watching him. He tossed his cigarette and walked into the clubhouse.

Lisa got home and she went about setting up for seduction. She placed several candles around the room and then went and showered and got dressed. She had never wore anything like this before but she had to admit it made her feel sexy and beautiful, but not overly slutty. She then went to the kitchen to make dinner. She wanted everything to be perfect.

Happy was sitting on his bike underneath a tree when he heard a bike pulling up. He turned to the noise and stepped away from his bike.

"Hey." Jax said pulling up.

"Hey, um.. I don't really know how to say this."
"Just say it Happy."

"I found out about the niners."

"Okay."

"It wasn't them." Happy then went on to explain what he found out.

"Shit." Jax said looking around the area. He pulled a cigarette out and put it to his lips.

"I feel like I know what happened Jax, but I have no proof."

"I know where you are going with this Hap, and I agree. But I can't bring the two of them to the club without the proof."
"I'm working on it."

Jax looked up at Happy. "I know and you have no idea how much that means."

"What's going to happen Jax if I do find out your mom was involved?"

"I don't know. I'm trying to wrap my head around that. I'm letting her continue to see Abel with the disapproving looks from both Tara and Lisa, but I don't want to play the hand until I have facts."

"I get that. But I want you to know that if anything happens to Lisa or Tara, I won't wait anymore."

"I know and I won't want you too." Jax said.

They hugged and did the back slap and they both got on their bikes and roared off.

"He knows something." Tig said to Clay as they sat behind the bushes where Jax and Happy just left."
"I wish we knew how much. I think we need to step up our plan." Clay said.

"Yeah, I'll handle it."

"Gemma is on her way now to handle one of the problems."

Lisa was all ready for when Happy walked in the door. She had put some extra fragrance on that she knew Happy liked and she sat down with the nervousness wrapping around in her belly. The doorbell rang and she wondered who that could be. She got up and realized that she didn't have a prospect here with her. She looked through the peephole and saw who was on the other side. She took a deep breath before opening the door. She was going to show this bitch she wasn't afraid.

"What brings you here?" she asked once opening the door.

"I was thinking maybe we got off on the wrong foot. I wanted to come and apologize."

Lisa raised her eyes in question.

"Can I come in?" Gemma asked.

"Sure." Lisa said as she stepped aside to let Gemma in.

"You have a cute home here."

"I like it."

"So, as I said I think we got off on the wrong foot."

"Yeah and?"

"I noticed that you have taken a liking to our killa."

"What about it?"

"I'm going to help you get him." Gemma said with a smile.

"I think I have that covered."

"Oh baby, you can't seduce someone like Happy. You have to be blatant with it. He's not going to want a relationship. That's something he's never wanted but, I can help get him to your way of thinking."

Lisa sat down. "So what exactly do you think I should do?"

"You need to tell him how you feel. Let him know straight off. He doesn't play games."

Before Lisa could respond they heard a bike pull in.

"That's my cue. Good luck." Gemma said and turned and walked out the door.
