CHAPTER FOUR

CLINK

“More turtles, daddy! More turtles!”

I laugh to myself as I adjust the steering wheel in one hand while sifting through the loose DVD’s in the center console to find one that he hasn’t watched a bazillion fucking times already. I’m careful as I switch out the movies inside the dash, pushing the buttons to begin another couple hours of entertainment for my boy.

He has his little earphones on listening to the cartoons, allowing me peace and quiet. Normally, I think any parent would welcome that. But… on this trip it’s gotta be the worst thing for me. All it does is leave me alone with the thoughts in my head. Thoughts I try like hell to avoid, but, I just can’t help but punish myself.

Nothing helps.

I know if I were on my bike, it would be different. The wind whipping in my face, the loud noise of the road, I’d be able to think of anything except her. Anything except Sugar.

I haven’t seen her in days, having left the very night after I confronted her in the hospital recovery room. But that doesn’t make her any less real to me. The conversations I have in my head are almost as if she were sitting right here next to me, answering for her crimes.

It’s all my fucking fault.

I knew there was something up with her from the moment I laid eyes on her. She was carrying some heavy shit on those shoulders. I could see it in her eyes. All the little clues I convinced myself to overlook… Jay catching her snooping at the clubhouse, lying about where she came from, her ma, Dana… I should have known better.

I didn’t want to, though. It’s as plain and simple as that.

I didn’t want her to be anything other than what I had convinced myself she was… my Sugar.

I could have saved us both, not to mention everybody else involved, especially my boy, a whole lot of fucking heartbreak if I had just looked further into it. Who knows? If I had found out the truth early on, maybe it would have been something I could have gotten over.

Fucking with the Prez’s daughter isn’t something you just jump into, but it could have worked, she would have been worth it. But, finding out at this late stage in the game?

She made a fool of me. She weaseled her way into my home, my life, my heart, only to carry out some sick fucking twisted part of her plan.

I play devil’s advocate with myself and argue that it can’t be true.

If she were simply here to use me and destroy her pop, then she never would have done some of the things she did. She wouldn’t have risked her nursing license to help Lil’s when Jay was in deep shit, not for a brother she barely knew and probably hated.

She wouldn’t have donated her marrow to Vince to save his life.

And she wouldn’t have taken to my boy like she did.

It just… it doesn’t fit.
