CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THREE

Website where all photos of all outfits mentioned is on my profile.

Gemma's sudden appearance at my elbow with Luann right behind her should shock me but I'd seen both Al and Donna's eyes widening as they watched someone walk towards us. Gemma pulls me from Jax's knee with a gentle tug and pushes me towards the office "I'll bring her back in a minute."

We're barely through the door when Gemma pushes it closed behind me and turns with a huge grin on her face clapping "I wish I'd seen it, I heard it was brilliant."

I laugh at her enthusiasm for me beating the snot out of someone on her lot "It was pretty good. Sorry Lu, you need to find some new talent."

Luann shrugs "No biggie, I've been trying to work out how to get rid of her for ages. But with Lyla leaving as well it puts a hold on the next movie while I find more stars."

"Lyla's leaving?" I know my voice shot up a few notches with the question and Luann giggles, pulling a joint from her shirt and lighting it.

"She's not leaving town baby, she's leaving Cara Cara, apparently the guy she's seeing doesn't want her working there anymore." Luann passes the joint to Gemma with a sly grin "You wouldn't know anything about that would you?"

I shrug innocently as Gemma watches the conversation like a match at Wimbledon. "I might. Sorry."

Luann laughs and steps closer to me, folding me into a hug "It's okay Sarah. I wanted Ima gone, Lyla I could have kept but if she's not happy anymore then its best she leaves. Porn pussy is a dime a dozen, it won't take much to find some more to come to town. Till then, well I guess I'll have to cut down to one bottle of wine a week."

I laugh and decide that it's time to talk to Clay, regardless of Jax not having sounded out anyone, if Luann's movies aren't going as well then the Club can step in once more, expand her business and bring more legitimate money to the club all in one movement.

Gemma passes me the joint and taking a small inhale I pass it back to Luann with a smile "I really am sorry Lu, I should have come and told you straight away that I'd fired one of your talent but I was just so pissed off."

Luann shakes her head and hugs me once more before pushing me towards the door with a slap on the ass "By the sounds of it she wouldn't have been good for anything for at least a few weeks anyway. Go reassure Jax that we're not killing you. He hasn't stopped looking over here since your mother-in-law grabbed you."

I roll my eyes "She's not my mother-in-law, she's Jax's mother."

Luann shrugs "Same thing in this world."

I dart past Luann and give Gemma a hug "Talk some sense into her; I am not your daughter-in-law."

Gemma nods "You're not…" I sigh with relief and step back out the door, barely hearing the "…yet."

Stomping across the lot I sit down heavily on the seat beside Jax and glare at him. He finishes whatever it was he was saying and looks at me "What and why aren't you keeping my legs warm?"

My glare deepens and he widens his eyes "What's wrong?"

"Your mother!" I snap at him picking up my glass and draining the entire contents in several long swallows. "And Luann!"

Jax looks around the lot and spots them still in the doorway of the office watching us. "What did they do?"

I lean into his side, my head settling on his shoulder "Luann called Gem my mother-in-law and when I corrected her Gemma agreed but added a 'yet' on the end of the sentence."

Jax groans "Interfering old woman."

I laugh "Who, Lu or Gem?"

"Both!" Jax snaps getting to his feet and walking inside.

I look over at Opie and Donna "Did I do something?"

Donna looks up at Opie "I don't think so."

Opie grins and shakes his head "Nah, he's just a little wound up."

"Why?"

Opie jerks his head towards the ring "Normally after a fight he'd go find a willing bit of pussy and work off any excess energy."

I drop my forehead into my hand and sigh "And his Old Lady didn't help him. Where the fuck did he go?"

Ope shrugs "Dunno S, but he'll be back soon I'm sure."

Each second that passes makes me a little more anxious and when the seconds tick into a minute I start thinking about going to search for him. 1 minute becomes 2 and then 3 before he comes back out the door with a glass in one hand and a bottle in the other.

Sitting down beside me he hands me the glass and takes in my worried look "You okay babe?"

I nod and get to my feet waiting till he sits down before sitting on his legs and sliding my arm around his waist under his kutte and kissing his throat softly "Sorry, I didn't know your after fight normality."

Jax laughs as I continue to press feather light kisses on his neck "It's okay Darlin', I didn't tell you. Besides, watching you beat the shit outta Ima kinda made me worried."

I pull back from where I'm nuzzling his throat and look up at him "Why?"

"When you saw that her blood was on your pants you looked like you'd like to pound her again."

I laugh and brush my hand lightly over the spot where I'd wiped a single drop of her blood off my trouser leg "I think I was more annoyed at myself."

Jax runs his fingers through one of my pigtails, smoothing it flat "Why?"

"Because I didn't break something more important, like her neck." I scowl in the direction of the driveway, equal parts glad she's gone and wishing she'd come back.

Jax puts his hand on the side of my face and presses lightly till I'm resting my cheek on his chest. Moving his head he kisses the top of my hair lightly "Don't be annoyed. I'm not."

I smile into his kutte "Why?"

Jax uses the hand still in my hair to pull my face till I'm looking at him "Cause Sarah, like I said that is fucken hot."

I giggle and press another kiss to his throat before picking up my refilled glass, the reason he'd gone inside, "I hope you don't have to witness much more of that, but don't mistake that for acceptance. I will beat the shit out of every croweater; sweetbutt and piece of pussy that thinks they can get anywhere near your dick. Like I said to Juice, there are only two places that it's allowed to be."

Jax waits while I swallow some of the icy liquid in the glass and set it back down before dropping his head to beside my ear "Well if you're well rested enough it'd like to take a trip from one acceptable place to the other."

I'm about to get to my feet when the sound of motorbikes coming down Main Street distracts me and Jax. He looks up as a pair of bikes pulls into the lot with a car between them.
