Previously, in Bed of Roses
Sophie gasped in surprise, putting his hands on his chest, however she didn't push him away. She closed her eyes and relaxed in the kiss, allowing Happy to lead her. Sophie moaned as she felt his tongue slip into her mouth. The kiss was slow as Happy let her get use to the sensation. They pulled apart and Sophie felt breathless, she looked up at him with flushed cheeks and half closed eyes.

"I want you to be mine" Happy rumbled, his eyes burning into hers. Sophie didn't know what to saw or how to respond.

"I'm yours" She whispered, it felt… right? She wasn't sure how to describe what she was feeling, but as the words left her mouth she knew it was the right choice.

"Good" He responded, lowering his lips to hers once again, dominating her mouth completely. Sophie sighed happily, she hadn't felt this loved in a long time.

The ringing of a phone interrupted their exploration of each other, Happy growled as he separated from Sophie, glaring at her ringing cell phone. Sophie giggled as she rolled over to grab it from the bedside table, sitting up as she saw it was Vince, an ex-marine who ran the security company her granddad left in her name.

"Hey Vince, Everything okay?" She asked, biting her lip as she felt Happy sit behind her, pulling her to his chest so he could try and listen in to the conversation rolling her eyes she clicked the phone onto speaker just as Vince answered.

"Not really sweetheart, we've got a problem" His voice was strong and angry.

"What's the matter?" She asked worriedly, looking up at Happy with her brows furrowed.

"The alarms for tranquillity went off, I sent out the security to check it out, place has been ransacked" Vince sighed as he heard her gasp.

"How bad?" She asked, grabbing her clothes as she dressed quickly, determined to go see the mess for herself.

"No one was hurt, but just get down here sweetheart."

"I'm on my way" She replied before hanging up.

She turned to see Happy standing behind her dressed and ready to go.

"The clubs going meet up there, let's go" He explained, leading her down the stairs and towards the door. She noticed he'd already sorted Salt and Pepper. The door was locked and she was on the back of his Harley before she could blink.

When she got to the salon, she was relieved to see the building was still standing, there was quite a few police officers surrounding the salon as well as a few fire trucks and some agents but she her sights locked on Vince, who was standing with two members of his security team, both of which she knew, if she went anywhere or needed anything these two men were her personal security team. All of the men who worked for him were either ex-army or ex-marine, and Sophie doubted any of the men were below 6ft tall. She noted there were a few sons hovering around waiting for them but Sophie headed straight over to Vince.

"What happened?" She asked as soon as he looked towards her.

"We caught them on camera, three of them broke in and started trashing the place, took off when the guys got here just as a bomb went off inside, Donnie and TJ took off after them, caught two of the bloke but one got away. " Vince explained, nodding towards the police cars where two young blokes sat scowling.

"How bad is the damage?" Sophie asked, feeling nervous, Vince stayed silent. Sophie turned on her heel and strode towards the door, catching sight of Happy and the sons following behind her.

"Oh god" Sophie murmured, her hand covering her mouth, anything that could have been broken had been, fixtures had been ripped from the wall, water was spraying everywhere from where the taps had been torn off, all her equipment had been shattered and broken everything was burnt and black from the smoke. It looked disastrous.

She heard the sons cursing from behind her, as she took a deep breath, she was so glad no-one was hurt. She didn't realise the tears were streaming down her face until Happy grabbed her arm and led her outside.

"We're so sorry Sophie" Clay spoke, his eyes full of pity,

"Not your fault" She replied, taking another deep breath as a fancy black car pulled up. Jacob Hale stepped out, his face twisted with fake sympathy and slight surprise.

"Oh dear, what a tragedy!" He spoke loudly, as he walked over to Sophie. "How are you going manage repair all this damage? The structure is surely ruined and unsafe, they might have to knock it down." He asked, his eyes gleaming with happiness. "I might be able to help you, I'll buy the land and help you rebuild and you can work in my building"

"No thank you Mr Hale" Sophie forced herself to be polite as she spoke quickly, before any of the sons could open their mouths. "I think I'll manage" She turned her back on him as she stomped off towards Vince, she was fuming, she knew he was behind it and he had unknowingly started a war with her. If he wanted to play like that, then she would fight back. She heard the sons following behind her, curious as to what she was going to do.

"Vince, I want Martha down here now"

"Yes M'am"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Martha was, a woman in her late 40's who acted as a personal assistant to Sophie, she had worked for her Grandfather before he passed and went on to work for Sophie, the woman would check up on all the companies, make sure they were working the way they should be and send Sophie the status reports monthly - whenever she needed anything doing Sophie would just ring Martha and it would be done, When she had arrived she was brought to the clubhouse, were the sons were talking about revenge for what had been done, Sophie refused to let them fight her battle.

"Its my fight, and I know exactly how to hit him where it hurts." Sophie grinned, standing up as Martha walked into the room, Juice and Chibs had been sent to fetch her from the airport, and the woman didn't look too bothered about the fact she was in the bikers den.

After pleasantries were exchanged and introductions were made, they sat around the table in church, Martha had her pen and paper ready to make notes of what was to be done. Sophie smirked as she looked around the room, seeing each member, Gemma, Tara and Martha watching her curiously – waiting to see what she was going to do.

"Well guys, this is the plan….."
