Quinn- Wolves MC

Gunner

This whole total lock down shit was starting to make me regret calling the damn thing. The amount of fighting going on was giving me a headache and if I'm being honest, playing peace maker was the last fucking thing I wanted to be doing.

After that shit with Nan and Roger I would have figured my guys and their families would have settler down, but the fights have started to get up there in double digits.

Stepping out of my room at five to go down to the gym and work off some steam I glance behind me at my bed. Quinn was wrapped up in my sheets, her arms cuddling my pillow to her as she slept.

When I had Reece with Nan I figured that I could grow to love Nan if we moved in together and tried to be a family, but I soon found out love ain't something you can force. Not that I think I love Quinn, I've only known her for two weeks, and I don't believe in that love at first sight bullshit. All I know is that whatever it is that is between us, this electric feeling I have whenever I touch her is different. I liked it maybe even loved the feeling and would kill to keep it in my life.

Clicking the door shut I walk down through the empty bar and to the gym in the basement. Lex and Tease are already down here.

"Who pissed in your Cheerios?" I ask looking at Tease who was glaring at his phone more than usual.

"Not your damn business pres." Tease bites back and I can't help but chuckle.

"Fair enough, just don't strain your face too hard there, it might crack."

He just flips me off as I head for the treadmills to start my day with cardio.

"What's putting you in such a great mood at five in the fucking morning?" Lex asks from where he is already running.

"Nothing." I insist even though I was rather happy this morning.

"Does it got a little to do with the woman in your bed?"

When I don't say anything Lex laughs somehow able to let out air while he's running.

"So it is."

"Shut the hell up Lex." I warn only half kidding.

"Alright Gunner, I'll lay off." I glance at Lex seeing him smirking while he runs.

"So, what with Tease?" I ask still noticing how he's on his phone.

Normally by now he'd have that thing shut off and in his bag.

"Got no idea man, he's been hunched over that damn thing since he walked in here this morning."

I didn't need him distracted right now, with those cult assholes trying to rip through our club to get to Quinn, I needed him and the rest of my guys focused. But I'm not heartless, if he needed to figure out personal shit, I'd give him the morning to do it.

"You tired of the lock down yet?" Lex asks and I can't help but scoff.

"This was the worst idea in the history of fucking ideas. I'm about to just send all the free pussy out so I can get a few minutes of no fighting."

"I'm with you. I couldn't get to sleep last night after I heard two club mamas trying to rip each others hair out over something an ole lady said."

I just shake my head.

"Morning fuckers!" Doc yells all too cheery for how early it is.

I can't exactly say I'm a morning person, but after years in the military I have got accustomed to limited or no sleep. On the other hand, Doc has always been an early riser who can function fully before the sun is up.
