“You aren’t wrong,” I mutter and take a long drink of water.
“Ya’ll are no fun.”
“Who is keeping the kids?”
“Link’s sister and her girls,” Pam announces.
My brows knit. “I didn’t know he had a sister.”
“You got a lot to learn about your husband’s men.” Pam grins. “But don’t worry I got you.”
I don’t know what to make of Pam. She always hated me, but she’s been really cool lately. Like maybe a certain cranky biker had a word with her or her man about her treatment of me. Either way I’m glad she’s being nice, even if it does kind of scare me.
Chapter Four
“How was your little shindig with the girls?”
“It was good.”
“Didn’t stay very long.”
“Well about an hour into dinner Wylla Mae was getting nauseated and Jules and Pam needed to relieve Link and Roane from baby duty. And there’s the fact that both Jules and Wylla announced they are pregnant again.”
“Fuckin’ hell. Need to invest in diapers. You tell them?”
“Yeah, but they won’t say anything.”
“It’s okay, babe. Couldn’t hold that shit in either and told East. Called Lily.”
“You think it’ll be weird?”
“What?” He opens his arms to me as I kick my shoes off. I drop onto my as he calls it ugly, mustard, baby shit colored couch and into his arms.
“Wylla and me pregnant at the same time?”
“Not gonna be the first or last time it’s happened. You really care what anyone thinks?”
I smile and curl into his side. “No.”
“Are you happy about it?”
“Yes and no.”
He stiffens.
“I thought she’d want to take time to return to school.”
James relaxes. “She has her own path, gotta let her travel it.”
“Did you say something to Pam or Link?”
His mouth twitches. “I may have told Pam she needs to cool the ice bitch routine. Not a good look. Told her you’re my woman and she needs to respect that.”
“Hmm.”
“Babe, Pam knows she was wrong about you.”
“Why do you seem to always say the right thing lately?”
