Chapter 18

A couple of days later, we are sitting at the clubhouse and Gemma is holding Eliza Jane when Jasmine walks in. Herm and Opie walk over to her and corner her. I get up and walk to them and stand in front of Jasmine. "Where is Laura?" I asked her. "Why should I tell you?" she asked smirking. "Because if you don't, I'll slit your fucking throat. Now, where the fuck is she?" I asked eerily calmly. She looks at me with fear in her eyes and says "She's at my house. She wants to make you disappear. She thinks that if she takes you out that Kozik will take her. She's delusional." I look at Opie and Herm and Opie alls Tig and Chibs over. "Jasmine, you are going to call Laura and tell her that Koz wants to meet her. He wants to talk to her." I tell her and she takes out her phone and dials. "Hey Laura. Look, I just spoke to Koz and he wants you to meet him somewhere to talk. I think he's finally come to his senses. Yeah, here's the address." she tells her and then gives her the directions to the cabin and ends the call. "She will be there in an hour." Jasmine tells us. " Why didn't you tell us that she was planning on coming back for me?" I asked her. "Because she has been trying to catch his eye for a long time and you just bat your eyes and he falls all over you. It's not fair. You are fucking royalty and we have to work to get a patch to even look at us." she tells me. "Shit. Take her to the cabin too." I hear Jax say. Opie takes her phone from her so that she can't contact anyone and he pulls her to the van. "Herm, I want to be there for this." I tell him. He looks over at Gemma and she says "Go ahead. I'll just spend time with my granddaughter." We walk out of the clubhouse and head up to the cabin.

An hour later, we see car lights pulling in front of the cabin. Herm walks out to the porch to greet her and as she tries to hug him, he holds his hands out and tells her that he wants to talk to her first. She walks in the door and sees me, as well as Opie, Jax, Juice and Happy. "What's going on here? I thought you wanted to talk?" she asked Herm. "We had Jasmine get you up here. You need to learn your place. You are nothing but a croweater and will never be anything but a croweater. You told Jasmine that all I had to do was bat my eyes and Herm fell for me. You want to know why? Because when these guys take on an Old Lady, they don't want someone that has been passed around to every dick within the club. They want someone that they can honestly say is only theirs. Someone that understands this life. Croweaters don't know shit about this life. All you know is now to suck a dick and from what I hear you aren't that good." The guys behind me laugh. Happy grabs her and pulls her to the bedroom where Jasmine is tied up. This was the same room that Kyle died. Happy walks around to the front of the girls and Jasmine tries to plead with him. "Happy, baby, please don't let them hurt me. You know I do you good." He just looks at her and then back at me and I nod. "You ain't shit to me. You were helping her threaten a member's Old Lady. That's a threat to SAMCRO." he tells her, showing no emotion. To him, she was nothing more than a way to release pent up energy and to him, he knows there will be another croweater waiting when he gets back to the clubhouse. I doubt he even really knows her name.

After Happy 'did his thing' and the bodies were buried, we headed back to the clubhouse where Herm and I spent the rest of the night laying in bed in the dorm room with Eliza Jane in between us. "I will never let anything happen to you and Eliza Jane. You know that right?" Herm asked. "I know, baby. You have never let me down. I love you Herm." I tell him. "I love both my girls so much." he tells me, kissing the top of both of our heads before we all fell asleep.
