Happy's POV:

The club has been at odds with the Mayans for months now. It's been getting worse as the days go by and everyone is on edge watching for something to happen. Apparently we haven't kept our eyes peeled enough, since the other members and I are now all standing in front of their clubhouse that is engulfed in flames. Everybody was lucky to get out in time. If it wasn't for Tig hitting a pool ball off the table we would have all been blown up.

After all the fire trucks and police officers left, we gathered in the garage. Luckily, we had finished the last car of the day shortly before the explosion so there was enough room for all members and Gemma to fit. Juice scanned the room for bugs and we were clear. Everyone started yelling back and forth about what we were going to do. Where are we going to meet, where will members who lived in the clubhouse go, what course of action are we taking were the main questions being asked. Clay interrupted everyone's question, "Those are important but we have a number one problem. We were attacked and must go on lockdown. The biggest problem with that is our lock down building is now gone and none of us have homes big enough to house everyone. Where can we all take shelter and regroup?" I went into the office through the door that was behind me and called my wife that no one knows I have. "Happy, what's going on, you usually don't call during this time of day?" My wife, Sasha, said when she answered the phone. "The clubhouse blew up, someone planted a bomb. I snuck out of a meeting to call you since I don't know if I'll be able to call you later with everything going on." I tell her. she immediately starts questioning if the other members and I were okay. I tell her that everyone made it out in time.

After a moment of silence Sasha says something that takes me by surprise, "What about you bring the club here? The house is big enough for everyone for the lockdown that you guys are most likely planning. The house is completely gated with armed security guards in multiple places surrounding the grounds. I think it's time to tell them, for everyone's protection." We have always agreed on keeping our family secret for their protection. We have three kids, twin boys and a girl, and Sasha is a famous author meaning she sometimes has to travel for book tours. Her face is known around the world so another reason we keep our marriage a secret is because it can ruin her career if it is found out that she is married to a criminal. "I don't know babe." I say. "What other choice do you guys have. Me and you are the only ones that have somewhere big enough for everyone to stay together and most importantly safe." She says, always the voice of reason. "Okay, I'll go tell them and text you before we all go that way. Love you." She replied with a love you back before I hung up and went back into the garage area. Everyone was still going back a forth like before I left so I yelled out a "hey!" to get everyone's attention. "I know somewhere that has enough room for everybody, including old ladies and kids, and will be the safest place possible for us to hide out and make a plan." I said. Everyone just looked at me weird but Clay was the only one who spoke, "And where would that be?" "I have a place on the outside of town." I said simply, not wanting to tell them just yet about me having a wife and kids. "Okay. While we have day light everyone split into twos and grab what you need from your houses, including old ladies and kids. Move out!" Clay said followed by Quinn opening the large garage door letting everyone leave.

*2 hours later*

Everyone has made it back to the parking lot and waiting for the word to head out. "Okay, everyone is here. Where are we going Happy?" Jax questioned. "Just follow me." was all I said before throwing my leg over my bike. While everyone got on their bikes or loaded up their cars with kids I sent a text to Sasha to tell her we were leaving the clubhouse parking lot and headed her way. I have no idea how this is going to go but it was the only option to make sure everyone stays alive.
