Killer and his Queen get into a messy situation… That's all I'm gonna say.
"Ruca." Esai said as he shook me out of my day dream. I looked at him And groaned.
"What?" I knew I sounded more irritated than the situation called for me to be.
"You zoned out." He looked concerned. "What's wrong?"
"Long ass day at work and the guys are still locked up. They're stalling at setting bail and it sucks." I slammed my hands on the desk. "Can a bitch get a break though?" I laughed.
"They'll be out no time." He sat across from me. "Down to business for us though."
"Lay it on me." I rested my cheek on the wooden desk and looked at him.
"We ran out of drugs." He said flatly.
"How is that even possible?" I asked.
"With all the extra bodies pushing we sort of ran out of everything." He smiled.
"All? Like bud included?" I sat up and smiled. "Where's the money?"
"Marcus has it." He said. "It's safe."
"I don't doubt it one minute, but I'm going to need you to be delegated more responsibility. I trust you to collect my money and bring it to me." I smirked. "Trusted from day one, lil homie."
He laughed. "You're younger than me!"
"Ain't nothinggg homie." I chuckled. "I been hanging with the crew too long. I even changed up my music."
"Stop." He waved his hands. "Mariachi and Chicano rap pumping out your system?"
"Ay, you know it ese." I laughed.
"You been hanging with my dad too much. That's what happened." He furrowed his brow.
"I spent the night actually. Diana is cool, so is Tessa." I smiled weakly.
"They took a liking to you that's for sure. Usually dad doesn't bring business home." He smirked. "No slumber parties with the Sons?"
"Well you know, I'm so liked over , no slumber parties with Sons. My two favorite Sons are locked up, 'member?" I stood up. "So get more drugs or whatever from Aleksandr. I trust you E, don't fuck that up."
"I won't." He pulled me into a hug. "I won't let you down."
"E, you got this." I smiled. "Wouldn't have put you where you're at if I wasn't confident with your abilities. Use those looks for good not evil."
He laughed. "I thought we were the evil ones though."
"Nope." I shook my head. "We're the good ones."
"Then who's the evil?" He looked confused.
"Everyone standing in our way on the rise to the top." I sighed. "I'll watch out for you if you watch out for me."
"You know I will." He winked. "You're basically part of the family now."
"Yeah, Marcus said I'm like a daughter." I smiled. "Go out and handle what you need to and we'll meet up later. I got a special assignment for you."
"Really?" He asked.
"Yeah, you're good at fixing shit right?" I laughed and he frowned. "Kidding. I will fill you in later. Right now I need to get SAMCRO out of jail."
I watched him walk out. He stood taller and with more confidence and I had to smile.
"Katarzyna." The voice came out ice cold and I already knew who it was before she even stepped foot in the room. It was my mom.
"Yes?" I asked as she stood in front of me. Her ice blonde hair tumbled in waves down her chest.
"What are you doing child?" She sat down daintily in the chair across from me.
"I'm trying to correct the Mikhailov legacy." I stared at her blankly. "Why are you even here?"
"I hear my daughter took her rightful position so I come here to see. See you flirting with someone who has nothing going for him." She spit on the ground.
"I'm not flirting with Esai. He's a business associate. I'm surprised you even left your homeland." I slouched in my chair. "I still hate you."
"I'm your mother. I birthed you. You cannot hate me." She crossed her legs and straightened out the fabric of her blouse.
"Mother, you tried to sell me to the mafia when I was twelve. I hate you for that." I sat up straight. "I have business to attend to, have to help my boyfriend and his club out of jail."
"You have a boyfriend who is in jail?" She looked disgustedly at me. "You are no child of mine."
"You're aware Nikola takes her clothes off for a living and is fucking an outlaw who happens to be in jail with my boyfriend." I rolled my eyes.
"That is why I disowned her." She sniffed. "You, my child, I have come to reclaim you as mine and direct you into building this empire you inherited the correct way. All these thugs can do no good for your legacy, they can only harm it."
"The thugs are my family. Dad is off with his wife, you, were supposed to remain gone. I tell everyone you've died except those I'm closest too, which is like three people. I don't need your help. I've done well without you." I leaned forward. "Go away."
"I will do no such thing. You are my daughter. I am here to help. You will end things with your boyfriend and find a nice Russian man." She spoke as she pulled a notebook out of her purse.
"No!" I pounded the table. "I will not leave the man I'm in love with for another Russian man. The last one I married was no good. You think I wanted this shit? You think I wanted to be where I am now? No fucking way, I'm a doctor first and mini mob boss secondly."
"Katarzyna!" She yelled back. "Watch your mouth."
"Or what? You going to smack me like every other time you didn't like hearing what I said. I'll hit you back." I stood up and walked over to her. "Hit me and see how far you get before you drop dead from a shot to the head."
"Threat?" She smirked.
"No, its a fucking promise that I have no trouble following through on. Now please, just let me be. I don't need your help, I don't need another arranged marriage and I don't need a bigger empire. I just need love and happiness and my boyfriend gives me both things. Plus I'm pregnant, I need to think about what is best for my child." I walked over to the door and pulled it open. "Excuse yourself, I have stuff to do."
I sat back down and watched her leave. Knowing it wasn't the last time I would be seeing her. She was the last person I needed in my life. Life was difficult as fuck without adding her into the mix. The nerve of her to think I needed her to help me with an empire and to find a man.
"Princess." Aleksandr appeared behind me. "What is wrong?"
"My mom being here is what is wrong." I looked at him. "If she comes here again, I want her snatched and put in a safehouse until I can ship her back to where she belongs."
"Alright Princess." He smiled. "I will give the guys the memos.

Happy POV
I was losing my mind. I thought Bri was a talker, but Juice had topped her. He talked nonstop about being a dad and all I did was grunt and nod. I had no interest in how he planned to raise his kid. I was too worried about how I was going to raise my own. I was scared shitless of becoming a dad. I was afraid the kid would hate me for what I am. Which is a killer. A killer who enjoyed every second of taking someone's life from them.
"Lowman." The guard said. "You're out of here." He unlocked the door and let me out. I was confused. I was leaving but the others weren't getting out yet.
"What about the rest?" I asked him as I casted a glance over my shoulder at my brothers.
"I don't know." He shrugged. "I had strict and specific orders to bring you to release."
"Ok." I nodded and walked into the room and heard the door clang shut behind me. I sat at the table and waited for something to happen when the door opened up again.
"Babe." I turned around and she was standing there. Fiddling with the hem of her shirt.
"Bri." I stood up and closed the gap between us and pulled her in for a hug. "What're you doing here? Are you ok? Is it the baby?"
"I'm here to collect you guys." She smiled and laced her fingers through mine. "Fuck, I missed you." She kissed me. "So much."
"How did your first day go?" I pulled her over to the table and sat down and she took the spot between my legs.
"Amazing." She smiled. "I felt like my old self."
"Told you." I smirked. "Love you."
"Love you too." She bit my neck and for the first time in awhile I didn't give her shit about it. "You smell." She pushed away from me.
"Yeah, well." I shrugged. "I was working out earlier."
"Shower for you, when we get home." She hugged me and I watched the door open and my brothers file in.
"I can't believe we're leaving." Juice stretched and grabbed Bri for a hug.
"Believe it." She smiled. "I'll see you guys on the outside."
"Bye." I smiled at her and she blew me a kiss.
"So in love." Bobby said as he looked at me.
"Is that a bad thing?" I asked.
"It could end up being one." He replied.
"Yeah." I nodded.
"You've been with her like what? Three months?" He asked.
I shook my head. "Nah, I've had her for almost three years."
"What?" Jax looked at me with an amused look.
"Yeah, I thought I mentioned it before. I didn't ever want to bring her around but I felt I had to." I frowned. "Now she's a fuckin' mini mob boss."
"I'm pretty sure she's major mob boss." Juice scoffed and I wanted to reel back and punch him.
"It is what it is." I said as the releasing officers came in to do the paperwork.

To walk out and see my lady leaning against my bike was a sight that turned me on instantly.
"Bri." I pulled her into a hug. "How the fuck did you get my baby here?"
"The guys brought the flatbed and dropped off all the bikes." She smiled at me. "No big deal babe. I cannot go to the clubhouse with you though. I have a doctors appointment early tomorrow."
"I want to be there." I smiled.
"Then come home early. You can plot revenge tomorrow afternoon." She laughed. "I gotta get home. Springing you guys after hours took the wind out of my sails and I wanna crash in bed."
"Let me see of the guys are cool and if they need me there." I squeezed her ass and walked off.
"Pres, we doing church?" I asked Jax.
"Um, yeah. We gotta talk about this Marks issue." He rubbed his head. "I want her to come too."
"I don't think she's up for it." I shrugged. "She's feeling sick."
"She looks fine." He said.
"Pres, she's pregnant. Needs the rest." I smiled. "I want her to take shit easy."
"Congrats Hap." He smiled. "You'll enjoy fatherhood. I just need your old lady to tell us how she found about Marks."
"Ask her now." I waved her over and my eyes took in the way her white jeans hugged the curve of her hips, accentuated her thighs, and made her already long legs look longer. She was a vision in white and I could only imagine what she'd look like in a wedding dress.
"What's up?" She cooed as she stepped next to me.
"He wants you to tell him how you knew about Marks." I said.
"Oh, yeah, I got cops on payroll." She shrugged. "I got tipped that Marks had ordered the hit by the guards and then I knew I had to protect you guys if I could."
"Appreciate it." Jax said. "Do you have details of why he wants us gone?"
"He wants to develop all of Charming and basically run it. He's money hungry and will take no prisoners." She smirked. "I got your back agaisnt Marks if needed. You need man power let me know and I'll send you some guys."
"Thanks." He said. "I'll be in touch."
"Welcome." She lingered for a moment before walking back off and letting me tend to business.
"You can go with her Hap." He said. "I'll be in touch with you too."
"I count on it. If I find out any more from her I'll let you know." I pulled him in for a quick hug. "See ya brother."

Bri POV
"Hap." I whispered. "I heard something downstairs."
He sat up almost instantly. His gun in his hand as he got out of bed and put his finger to his mouth to keep me quiet. "You sure it's not Koz?"
I nodded yes. "H, he's a ninja babe. You and him get in and out without a sound all the time."
We heard a crash of glass and he moved closer to the door. I followed closely, my own glock nestled in my hand. "Security monitors are in the closet. Should we check them first?"
"No." He walked out of the room and I started to panic. "Shoot first ask questions later."
I waved my gun at him. "I know."
He stalked down the hall, his steps silent and calculated. We tiptoed down the stairs and we ducked into the kitchen. There was another thump and then a shadowy figure appeared. Happy fired and the figure went down hard and he ran over to it and I followed him cutting on the lights as we went.
"Not Koz." He looked back at me. "You know him?"
"Nope." I dropped to my knees and searched the man's pockets for anything that would give us his identity. "Nothing."
"He's basically dead." He shrugged. "How'd he get in? This place is secured like a fortress."
"Help me take his shirt off." I looked at Happy and he gave me a puzzled look in return. "I need to see ink."
"You got an idea of who he could be?" He ripped the guy's shirt open and it revealed an eagle.
"Yeah." I swallowed hard. "My mom's guy." I stood up and put a bullet in the guy's head.
"Your mom?" He stood up and hugged me from behind.
"She stopped by and saw me before I got to you guys." I turned and faced him. "I don't know how he got in here though."
"You just helped me commit murder baby girl." He grabbed my hips and pulled me hard against him. "So perfect." He kissed my neck. "We gotta clean this shit up though.
"I'll call Aleksandr." I shrugged. "We cannot have sex with a dead guy in the living room."
"Why not?" He frowned at me. "He can't watch us. He's dead."
"Because it's creepy. This guy was obviously after me or something." I cuddled into his chest. "Clean up then we can fuck."

Juice POV
I sat with every laptop I had available open and in front of me. Searching countless databases for any vital information on Bri. Her power was irking me. She seemed to have obtained a lot of it in a short amount of time. That was scary and right now I needed to secure and alert my club.
"Go to bed." Natalie appeared in front of me. Wearing one of my shirts that didn't fit her well. "Do this tomorrow."
I shook my head. "Need to do it now." I focused back on the screens. "Nothing. Katarzyna Hohrykova is clean as a whistle." I sighed and tossed my pillow in frustration.
"Try using her married name." Natalie shrugged. "Hohrykova is her name from when you knew her right? Try her husband's name plus she was married in Russia."
I looked at her. I hadn't even thought about that fact. "Do you know it?"
"Yeah, Mikhailova." She shrugged. "Finish that up and come to bed babe."
"I will." I smiled and gave her a kiss. I entered her name and a whole list of Russian news articles came up along with a rap sheet. "Holy shit." I said as I looked at her mugshot and charges. She was a mob boss in her own right, her arrests were all with her husband and the charges filed against him were always dropped. Hers stuck, giving her a reputation, a shit one at that. Her husband wanted her to look like the boss and not him.
"Fuck." I slammed the laptops closed. She was in deep because of her dead husband. The power, he hadn't wanted anyone but her to take it. An innocent wife would have been easy to bump off by his enemies.
"Bri." I spoke. "It's Juice, I want to talk to you. Call me back." I hung up my phone and headed to bed. I knew I wouldn't sleep but I wanted to be near Natalie and Luna.
Keep Bri's mom in the back of your mind.
Once again, thank you to my loyal readers and reviewers. I hope to update this story sooner than I posted this chapter.
