“Egg and Butt are handling everything right now. You’ve not got a thing to worry about.” The fights they had organized had been moved out of town toward an abandoned warehouse within the city. Pipe didn’t want any of that shit near his little girl. A lot had changed for the Hell’s Wolves since Elena had become part of their world. They were all still deadly, but Pipe just liked to make sure a lot of that shit stayed away from him.
Knife couldn’t blame the man.
Family came first.
“Breakfast casserole sounds good,” Sarah said.
“It is. The pancakes are good as well. So are the breakfast sandwiches,” Elena said.
The sound of a stomach growling could be heard, and he looked at Sarah to see her cheeks go bright red. “I guess I’m hungry.”
Knife signaled the waitress and waited to be served.
“You didn’t have to do that,” Sarah said.
“You’re hungry.”
“I can wait.”
This time he shrugged. “You could wait, but what’s the point of waiting if you don’t have to?”
“I see your point.”
“You should.”
The waitress came to their table and took their orders. Knife made sure to order one of everything so Sarah could try at least something.
“Hungry, Knife?” Pipe asked.
“Ravenous.”
His Prez was taunting him.
“Now that you’re back, Sarah, maybe you could keep my guy here out of trouble,” Pipe said.
“You’ve been in trouble?” Sarah asked. “You’ve not said anything on the phone.”
Staring at his Prez, he gritted his teeth. Knife raised his brow as Pipe smirked.
Bluebell chose that moment to let out an ear-piercing squeal.
“She’s hungry, baby,” Pipe said.
“I know, but I don’t want to feed her in here.”
“Why not?”
“In case it offends some people.”
“Fuck ‘em, babe. My kid needs to eat.” Pipe leaned forward, removing his jacket, and placing it over Elena’s shoulders. It covered Bluebell’s head and offered privacy.
Turning back toward Sarah, Knife rested his arm across her shoulders, and tried his hardest not to reach out and touch the soft locks of her hair. Damn, he just wanted to touch her. It had been too long since he’d seen her last, and being at the café where she worked hadn’t been close enough to her.
“Are you okay?” he asked.
“Yeah, I’m fine.”
Pipe and Elena were talking in low tones, so Knife took the time to talk to his woman. “What are you going to do now that you’re back in town?”
