"Oh god!" Lana had been back in Charming for a few days and decided tonight would be a great night to have a girl's night. Now, after dancing and a few too many drinks, both she and Lyla were fairly drunk and laughing about some guys that had tried to make a move on them.

Lyla lit a cigarette as they waited for the guys to come and pick them up. Happy had been insistent upon dropping Lana off so he would know exactly where she was at and since she knew she'd be drinking and unable to drive anyway, she hadn't argued the point.

"Did you see his face when he realized why you seemed so familiar?!" Lana asked Lyla and the two girls burst out into another fit of laughter, making it a few moments before Lana was finally able to catch her breath. "God, I needed this night. Two men at home are so suffocating sometimes."

"And they don't even officially live there… yet." Lyla shot her a sideways grin. "When's that gonna happen by the way? When are you gonna marry one of them?" It was a tease that held genuine curiosity.

Lana gave her a painfully exasperated look and they started laughing again. "That kinda talk is just cruel, you bitch." Lana said between laughs.

They heard the sound of motorcycles a few minutes later and, assuming it was their old men, pushed away from the wall they'd been leaning against. But it wasn't any Son that rounded the corner, though they were wearing leather kuttes. The two moving mountains called men obviously weren't the club friendly kind. One shoved Lyla back into the wall, turning her arm painfully to inspect the crow on her shoulder while the other pinned a struggling Lana against the wall in order to see the crow and name "Kozik" peeking out from under her shorts.

"Need you to deliver a message to Jax." He sneered. "Tell him the Sons better back off or we'll take out every SAMCRO family member we can get to. Starting with you two." Lana flinched at the smell that assaulted her. Half the guy's teeth must be rotting away. Thankfully, the familiar sound of two more bikes were heard, prompting the men to give each woman a forceful shove before leaving to their own bikes.

Opie and Happy pulled up a couple seconds later, Lyla sliding to the ground with Lana still backed against the wall. "What the fuck happened to you two? You that drunk?" Opie asked with amusement and a hint of confusion clear in his voice. He could tell something was off, but wasn't sure what.

Happy just stared at Lana, who was visibly shaken. "A couple guys threatening SAMCRO families. Wanted me to pass the message along to Jax. They were wearing kuttes, but I didn't get a good enough look to see who they were."

"Shit!" Opie hissed, getting off his bike to help Lyla up.

"We know who they are. Get on the fuckin bike, Lana." Happy ordered gruffly, pulling his phone out and sending a text to Jax.

By the time they got back to the clubhouse all the other guys' bikes were parked in the lot. Lana and Lyla followed Happy and Ope inside and Lana was immediately intercepted by Kozik.

"Are you ok?" He asked, pulling her into his arms.

"I'm fine." She said as she leaned into him. She loved Happy, but he wasn't always that great about being sympathetic or comforting. All he'd known in that moment was he was pissed that his woman had been threatened and with him, anger always won out over anything else.

Just as Lana started to relax, Kozik pulled away. "We got church. Gotta handle this shit. Just stay here, we shouldn't be too long." He kissed her on the forehead and turned toward the chapel.

"Lana said they were wearing kuttes." Opie said once the doors were closed. They all exchanged looks knowing it was the same rival MC they'd been dealing with in Tacoma. They had one charter left in Lodi that had never caused much trouble for SAMCRO, but now that their other charter had been wiped out, they were pissed and looking to retaliate.

"What did they want with the girls?" Jax asked, agitated already.

Opie shook his head. "Just said it was a threat aimed at SAMCRO family members. Wanted them to pass along the message, I guess."

"We're gonna have to take them out." Jax said. He was silent for a moment. "Do I have to put this shit to a vote?"

"Better not have to. Anyone has a problem with me killing these assholes, they can come to me. They threatened my old lady. I ain't letting that shit slide." Happy spoke up.

Kozik nodded in agreement, challenging anyone to speak their disapproval, although he knew they wouldn't.

"We lay low. Stay off their radar while we plan this shit out. We move out in a couple days and wipe them out once and for all. I don't know about you brothers but I'm tired of this shit. Little roaches were causing trouble for months up in Tacoma." Roaches were exactly what they were. And like a roach, apparently cutting off the head wasn't killing the problem fast enough. "They're out of their fucking minds if they think I'm gonna give them the chance to do it here. We've got some exterminating to do, brothers." Jax said, slamming the gavel down on the table.

SOA

As expected, everyone in town that was close to the club had been placed on lockdown. Lana hated it of course, but she understood. She hated that the clubhouse was so full of people. There hadn't been so many people the last time they were on lockdown. She'd been trying to avoid most everyone for the past couple days and was currently in the room she was sharing with Hap and Kozik, curled up on the bed with her blonde biker, watching TV.

She had managed to get some information about what was going on from Kozik, but not much. Pretty much all she knew was that the club knew who had made the threat and they were working on what to do about it. Lana just hoped they figured it out sooner rather than later.

She fought to keep her eyes open as her head rested on Kozik's chest while he flipped through the channels and ran his fingers through her hair. She was just about to doze off when the door swung open and Happy came into the room.

He tossed his gun down onto the table next to the bed and shrugged his kutte off. As he pulled his shirt off, Lana stood and went up behind him. He was clearly very wound up so she didn't say anything as she wrapped her arms around his waist.

Kozik knew he'd been out with a couple of the other guys, watching the other club in order to plan their next move. Understanding something must not have gone as planned, he headed for the door to go find out what had Hap all twisted up, leaving Lana to try and calm Happy down.

Happy stood facing the dresser, arms outstretched and hands braced against the top. His muscles tensed under his skin and he closed his eyes and took a breath in as Lana ran her hands up his back and over his shoulders, massaging the muscle. He began to relax and then suddenly tensed again when he thought about how close they'd been.

They'd been in the perfect position to take out most of the assholes, but Jax had wanted to make sure they got them all in one go and he wanted to be sure they had enough back up to do so, meaning they needed everyone. Happy was out for blood and Jax's order to back off only served to fuel the rage threatening to boil over.

Lana felt him tense again so she moved her hands up the back of his neck, lightly running her nails back down and sending tingles down his spine, making his mind go blank for a moment. She knew that got him every time. She ran her hands back over his shoulders and down his arms.

Happy turned suddenly and grabbed her upper arms, pinning them to her sides. He held her gaze as he slowly backed her up toward the bed. Her heart beat sped up. He was pissed about something that had happened and sex had always been a great outlet for him.

Lana stopped when the back of her legs hit the bed and she raised her hands to his belt buckle. She bit her lip and yanked his belt from around his waist before reaching down and pulling her shirt up over her head.

She removed the rest of her clothes and then grabbed Happy by the shoulders and turned so he was standing with his back to the bed. She reached down and finished undoing the front of his jeans and pushed them down along with his boxers, then she pushed him down onto the bed and climbed over him, straddling his hips.

She was surprised he was actually letting her take control, usually by now he'd have her undressed and bent over, slamming into her and making her come before she could even think twice about it. She reached down between them and wrapped her hand around his cock and lowered herself onto it, the whole time returning his intense glower.

The corner of her mouth twitched up as his eyes closed for a brief moment before opening back up. That was one of many things that kept the sex interesting with him. It was as if he always had to make it a competition for who would lose control first. He always tried to remain cold and stone-faced. The killer persona had to follow him everywhere. She knew it was all a façade though.

She drug her nails down his chest as she rode him and he gripped her hips like a vice and thrust up into her harder. Sitting up, he took her nipple into his mouth and her hands went to his shoulders. His hands remained on her hips, fingers pressing into her flesh painfully and promising to leave new bruises where older ones were fading.

Moving one hand to the back of his head, she held him to her and tipped her head back, eyes closed and mouth open slightly. He flipped her suddenly without separating from her and lifted her legs up to hook over his shoulders.

A few more minutes and her legs were shaking. Her orgasm hit her in waves making every muscle in her body tremor and she nearly went limp from the exertion. Happy came right after, her orgasm encouraging his own. After all the times he and Kozik had both been with her, she was still the tightest bitch he'd ever fucked and he loved it more every time.
