I needed her to stay . . . not for her safety, not to piss off her family— but because I loved her more than life.

Eoin "Grey" O'Shea

For the last two years, I've focused on my club. As the Road Captain, it's my sole job to ensure we make it safely to and from our runs. Dealing with the Russian mob, we can't be too careful.

Aside from that, my family comes first. Well, them and a raven-haired beauty named Willow.

She might be a clubwhore, but she consumes me, even though she doesn't know it. So when her past comes to light, and I find out she's anything but a whore, I'm a little pissed. More so, I'm determined to protect her from anyone and everyone, even if that means defying my club and her father— the Pakhan.

With everything already on our plates, I don't know that I can ask my brothers to help me this time, and the truth is— Willow has a choice to make . . . and I'm not even sure she'll choose me.

She has no idea what I'd do to keep her in my life, my arms, and my bed— but I think it's about time she finds out.

And I'll kill anyone that tries to stand in my way.
