This would follow chapter 3, so you may want to reread that one first.

Gales was on his way home from work after his long day on the job. For some reason he had been reported for sexual harassment. So he had gotten his first write up. He drove down the fairly quiet main street of Charming when he noticed one of the store fronts read, 'Scoops.'

It looked old and wore down but there were a few motorcycles parked out in front of it.

Out of curiosity he wanted to speak to the man who said that he was Dr. Knowles husband. They seemed an unlikely pairing.

Walking through the glass storefront, he could immediately see a handful of leather vest wearing bikers, a few of which were speaking to scantily clad woman. But they all stopped what they were doing and had put their eyes on him.

An older barrel bellied man with long stringy gray hair, stood from his chair, asking, "Help you with something?"

Tearing his eyes away from one of the woman, he cleared is throat, "Ugh yes. I would like to speak to someone."

"That someone got a name?" Bobbie quirked his eyebrow at him.

"I'm sure he does…." He trailed off, trying to recall it the man's name, "he's tall, long blond unkempt hair. Think name starts with a J-something."

He saw a man behind the counter in a plaid shirt move to a doorway that lead out the back. And the scantily clad woman skittered their way out the front door.

"He expecting ya?" the man in front of him asked, his eyes looking him over.

"Maybe… He told me if I had any questions to stop by…."

The man in question came from the back, "Is there a problem?" Jax asked.

"No problem," Gales insisted looking Jax over as he stopped right in front of him, "Just taking you up on your offer to stop by if had anymore questions."

Crossing his arms over his broad chest, Jax gave Gales his look of disbane. Looking at the stance Jax had taken, the club members all stood and had formed a circle around them.

After Jax just stood there and stared at him for a good 2 solid minutes, Gales decided he would start. "I've never heard Dr. Knowles saw anything about being married. How long has it been? I know she has children, are they yours?"

Looking at Jax, he could see his jaw tick and his nose flare out. Not a word coming out of his mouth.

Then he felt something being done around the crotch of his slacks, he jerked back and swatted at the hand that was tugging on them, "EXCUSE ME!" he screeched, "Just what do you think you are doing?" he shrieked at the man with shaggy black hair and blue eyes who had just grabbed at him.

"Just looking to see the size of your cajones," Tig explained shrugging in lieu of apology.

"What? Why?"

"Because you must have a HUGE pair coming in here, on MY turf, asking about MY old lady, like it's any of your goddamn business!" Jax growled into the man's face. His hand had shot out and grabbed the man around the collar of his shirt, and was now within inches of his face.

Releasing him and shoving him back so hard the man tripped and fell on his ass.

"You see my wife at work, you only talk about business. You don't talk to her and you keep your fucking hands to yourself. She tells me otherwise, I will find and kill you. It comes down to that, you remember you started this shit."
