Love Or War

chapter 9

it's been two years since Kohn's murder, and clay was forced to step down  and would sit at the bottom end of the table and was only allowed to vote nothing more out of shock put a vote to the club for me to become president as Jax wanted to hold his patch a bit longer and the club agreed I put a vote on Thomas to become a full member and to be my sergeant in arms with that all the members agreed I put hap to be Jax's right hand man. after our church we all went to celebrate I looked to my right and I saw two kegs Jax picked up a pen that was covered in Irish colour's and he gave me a stern look "everybody out now" I yelled and Jax, Thomas and I, quickly checked the rooms I grabbed Abel and Jax grabs Ryder and Thomas grabs raven and we all run out side we got about twenty feet away from the clubhouse before it blew up. hope, gemma and Tara grabbed the kids and took them to gemma's for the night and myself and the guys went home for the night and early hours the next morning we walked through what was left of the club house Thomas and tig grabbed JT's bike that we had on display and took it to the shop to get repaired and Jax and I grabbed the chapel table we loaded up a moving truck full and closed the doors I called hales brother for any properties available and he told me about an old ice cream shop in main and for Jax and I to check it out.   

when we got there, we had a look around and we arranged that we would run it for prosects and old ladies for extra pocket and we suggested that we would have hope run the books so she could set it up however she wants we would all be happy to help but the second level is off limits only club business. once the truck arrived, we unloaded everything that was from the chapel and what was able to be saved form the club house into the office area I sent the prospects with hope and gemma to find chairs and to grab shit that hope might need for the rebuild. once they came back, three hours later they came back for their shopping trip we put the chairs in the office and went to work in the shop hope pointed out what she wanted gone and how she wanted it she had juice and happy draw up the designs and raven and hope picked out the colours, Jax and I were allowed to do the braking, woodwork and heavy lifting we had the rest of the guys look into why the Irish would blow up the club house and helping gemma run the auto shop so this would keep us busy for a few days.

four days later the shop had been completed and ready to open we had families from all over charming to see the shop and to see them leave with a smile was heartwarming it showed how much thing can change over a short amount of time we were all impressed by the turn out. the guys and I went upstairs "first order of business what do we know about the clubhouse" I asked Chibs spoke up "I spoke with some contacts they said that they were told that we would be giving the guns to the black-" I cut Chibs off "inform them that is not true if they need, we will be more than happy to set a meet we will keep the guns and continue to run through business now bobby has a request to transfer to nomad are you sure about this brother" he looked at me and nodded "I think its best that I step away for a little while and pick up more miles" he said while looking at all of the guys we all said yeah sadly I hit the gavel on the table and got up and left the room. I walked outside and lit up a smoke and a girl walked up to Jax's bike and started hitting it I got up and grabbed her hand "hey sweetheart, do you mind coming inside and telling me why you are hitting my brother's bike with a socket ranch" she looked around and noticed that the guys and hope was standing outside and yelled rape twice before I let her hand go.

I turned my head to them, and I made my way inside with them behind me "juice I want you to find anything even if you need Wayne, I want her found by tonight" everybody stopped and stared until my phone rang and I walked away from the building to my bike with Jax, Thomas and hap behind me "yeah what's up, on my way" we rode to a random motel we saw Nero waiting outside the room "what's going on brother why are we here" he looked at me concerned " I need your word that you two won't be mad or see her any different" he said and lead us to the room I blink twice when I see her " mum what the hell happened" Jax said from behind me she grabbed my hand I tried to look at her but all I wanted to do was kill her I pulled my hand back and left the room and went to a random car and punch the windows Thomas and happy came to me. trying to stop me from killing my own mother Thomas placed his hand on my back "it's okay Prez" I shook my head and got on my bike sent Jax a text saying, 'heading back to the garage to work on Jt bike.'
