“Thanks, and the others” I nod
“Sorry, can’t help ya with them, but if you fuck up his face, his wife will kill you,” I tell him as he looks at Colt then back at me
“Really!” I nod, thinking about Niya losing her shit “Does he have a wife,” he asks pointing to Cuff, and I shake my head
“Nope, but hitting him in the head won’t work he’s already dumb as shit.”
“Hey, I heard that,” Cuff says
“You were supposed to fuckhead.”
“Right, let’s get this shit started,” Nash says, stepping forward, the three of them take their Cuts and shirts off, and Cuff cracks his neck and so does Colt
“You ready for a beating boy” Cookie taunts him
“From you pretty boy, I don’t think so,” Chase says and we all laugh. Colt and Cuff move to the side and Cookie faces him, Colt swings first hitting Chase in the side of the head, and he drops to the ground. “Nobody said start!” he yells, and Cookie moves forward, but Chase ducks, Cuff lifts his boot kicking Chase in the gut, and he falls to the ground again. The boys pull back until Chase catches his breath, he stands back up as Cuff strikes punching him in the kidneys. Chase lifts his elbow striking Cuff in the face, and he stumbles back as Colt punches him in the face again, Chase leans down, and Cookie puts him into a headlock, and they both start punching him uppercutting him over and over. They both step back, and Chase stumbles forward his nose bleeding and two teeth missing, we all watch as he sways but stays upright. The boys stand still until Chase motions them forward the three of them wail on him over and over until he’s on the floor and I hear a crack and Chase screams. The three of them step back straight away and Razor steps forward, kneeling down, and Chase looks up at him wheezing holding his chest blood dripping from his nose mouth and a large cut above his eye
“Son you're always welcome at the clubhouse, your family and I’m sure my boys have taught you a lesson. But if you ever pretend to be a Devil again, I’ll put a bullet in you myself you hear me” Chase nods wheezing even more, and I know his ribs are broken by the way he’s holding his chest. “I loved your Dad, Chase and I can tell you now, he’d be the one right here kickin’ your fuckin’ ass, my doors always open boy” he stands up and looks at me
“Get him to the hospital” I nod helping my little brother up
“Wait!” Chase wheezes out, and Razor stops turning back and looking at him
“I want in, I want to make my Dad proud” Razor looks at me
“Take him to the hospital.”
“Please” Chase begs, and Razor looks at him again then at Dover, Dover nods and Razor takes a deep breath
“Brothers you’ve heard the ask of this boy, it needs to be unanimous” I look around at my Brothers, and they all stare at us, and I look at Razor remembering that Saint isn’t here
“We can’t,” I tell them before they open their mouths and Razor looks at me
“Why not?”
“It has to be unanimous, and Saint isn’t here” Razor nods
“True, we wait until Saint gets back to vote” I nod as all of the guys leave and Chase looks at me
“Why did you do that?” he asks as I lead him out to my bike
“Because I saw their faces Chase, it was going to be a no, we have two weeks to try and change their minds if you're serious about this” he nods looking up at me
“I’m sorry Evan,” he tells me
“Come on,” I help him onto my bike and make our way to the hospital.

I sit in the most uncomfortable chair for a man my size waiting for Chase, Ella comes walking in and I stand up when she comes closer “Baby what are you doing here?”
“All the guys came back, and you weren’t there, and I started to panic, then Colt told me that you brought your brother here, are you ok?” I pull her to me huggin’ her takin’ a deep breath
“I haven’t seen him since he was three, it's surreal you know,” she nods pattin’ my chest
“I lost a brother, and yours comes back to you, it’s the universe working in mysterious ways,” she tells me, and I smile
“That it is baby, that it is.”
“Chase Thomas,” the nurse says, and we turn lookin’ at her
“Yep,” I say, and she looks at me
“He’s asking for you.” We follow the nurse through the doors and down a hall, beds with curtains open and closed line the walls and she stops “The doctor will be in soon.”
“Thanks,” I pull back the curtain, and Ella stops, she looks at Chase “Baby,” I ask frowning at me, but she steps forward
