Greed - The Seven Deadly & Heavenly Sins MC

Chapter Four;

"Trapped, I believed he loved me in his way; the scars I needn't show; there was nowhere else to go. I said I was happy to be his girl; if only I had known, my words were not my own." - Lang Leav

Greed

Hearing the buzzing of my phone I let out a low groan and reach for it blindly, grabbing the annoying object from the bedside table I swipe it and hold it against my ear. "Yeah?" I grumble out my voice still laden with sleep, I take a quick glance at the alarm clock to the right of me and note the time 7:30am letting out a sigh I slowly push myself up feeling the sheets slide down my chest. "Church 30 minutes" I hear the voice of Pride my president. Hanging up the phone I climb from the bed running my hand down my face, letting out a sigh I headed into the ensuite reaching in I start the shower. Leaning against the sink I look into the mirror and look into the grey eyes staring back at me, I no longer recognised the person in the mirror. War can do that to you, war changes you even if you struggle to accept that fact.

Being back for 8 years still doesn't ease the scenes that run through my head every night of my comrades and I charging through buildings saving innocent lives caught in the cross hairs of war. I guess I should be thankful that Pride and I made it back from serving overseas in one piece, pretty sure a little bit of that was his fathers influence and the fact he was in love with Aadya. Shaking my head I wouldn't allow myself to go there still feeling the effects of last nights nightmare I step away from the mirror and strip out of my boxers climbing under the warm spray, feeling it slowly relax my muscles I look up into the spray trying to wake up before sitting through the meeting. Stepping out 15 minutes later I quickly dry off and throw on a pair of black ripped tight jeans and a black ripped shirt, grabbing my cut I place it on before grabbing my phone and heading out of the room.

Heading towards the staircase I can already hear voices emitting from the kitchen and bar area, treading down the stairs I just step off the last step before wrath spots me and heads in my direction. "Any idea why church has been called" his deep voice rings out in the still slightly quiet bar, shrugging my shoulders I keep my mouth shut not having the answers he seeks. Heading in the direction of the kitchen I step through the door way spotting one of the prospects Xavier brewing a fresh pot of coffee, "Thank fuck" I grumble out as I watch him turn his head flashing us both a grin. Pouring a cup he hands it to me before pouring one for Wrath, pouring in some milk I take a sip before heading back through to the bar taking a seat waiting for Pride.

Opening my phone I quickly glance at my schedule to see how many clients I had booked in for today, noting I had 8 bookings I knew it was going to be a long day plus what with walk ins until the shop closes at 9pm. I slide my phone back into my pocket and take another sip of my coffee placing the cup down in front of me allowing my mind to drift, hearing a shrill whistle I glance up seeing Pride motioning for us to enter the meeting room. Grabbing the cup I stand to my 6ft 3inches before following everyone into the room, taking the seat to the right of pride I watch as all of my brothers fall into their chairs some yawning, some grumbling about the hour as I just let out a deep chuckle earning a few glares.

Banging the gavel we all turn our attention to our president, "now some of you may be wondering why I woke you all so early, we have a problem boys" hearing this I watch as everyone instantly wakes up giving Pride their full attention myself included. "The Timber Wolves MC is trying to encroach on our territory doing runs with guns and drugs" letting out a low growl I watch as he flicks his eyes to me giving me a silent warning to stay calm. Ever since getting back I had struggled to control my temper when people were being scumbags, I had a temper before I joined up but I had control of it then now it was almost as if there was something inside of me that just wanted blood when someone wronged another. "what's the plan boss?" I hear Wrath speak up as I nod my head glancing towards Pride, "I am going to get in contact with our sister chapters, for now fortitude I want you to keep a close eye on them and what they are up to through the cameras" glancing at our resident Tech guy I watch him nod before grabbing his laptop and starting to type fast.
