"I know, but I was wondering if I can get a ride. I have an appointment down town.”
“Absolutely not.” I answer.
“Sin, come on. Hawk is going where I need to go, it’s only logical. I just need a ride.”
“I don’t mind taking her.” Hawk pipes up. I look over to Savannah and she gives me a look of disapproval.
“Please.”
“Fine. Get your ass in the back and don’t say a fucking word to Savannah.”
“Alright, Jesus.” She goes to stomp off but I grab her arm.
“I’m being serious, Kara. Don’t fuck with me and don’t spit your venom towards Savannah. I’m warning you.”
She pulls her arm away. “Yeah, I got it.” She turns towards Hawk. “I’ll be at your truck, thanks.”
"You can't be serious?" Savannah questions.
"It’s just a ride, sugar. She won’t open her mouth. I promise.”
“Would you ride with Tyson if he asked for a ride?” She crossed her arms again, pushing her tits up even further up this time. My eyes dart to Hawk and he’s totally checking out her cleavage. Hawk's my brother in all sense of the word, but there is only so far I allow my family to go and he’s right on the edge of my patience.
“Just get to Doc’s so he can check you out.” I turn to leave, still listening to their conversation.
"You have got to be kidding me.”
"Savannah, don't push him." Hawk says. "Let's get going so we can get back. I've got club shit to deal with."

I enter Cut's office as soon as I made sure the three of them left the compound in Hawk's black truck. The lift on it is going to be a problem the further along Savannah gets. I may not be able to rely on him taking her places if I can't talk him into adding a step up for her. I can't risk her falling while she's trying to climb that thing and hurt the baby. "Everything alright?" Cut asks as I enter.
"Yeah, Savannah’s going to see Doc. Her morning sickness should be getting better by now.”
“Normally you’d think, but didn’t she start later in her pregnancy? Maybe it just means she’ll just have it during her second trimester and not her first.” I look at him in disbelief. “What? I’ve been reading up.”
"Is that so?" I question.
"Jesus, Sin. You aren’t the only one who plans to bring kids into their future. I have every right to read up on shit that Lily might be going through."
I hold up my hands. “I’m not saying anything.”
"Fuck you. Why are you here, anyway? You being the doting father to be, I figured you’d be in the office holding her hand."
"We're just friends."
"So you say, brother. If you’re not with her, then who is?"
"Hawk and Kara."
"Hawk I understand, but why in the fuck did you send Kara with them?"
“Chill out, Cut. She needed a ride into town. I didn’t see the issue with that.”
"Sometimes you’re so damn blind at shit that’s right in front of your fucking face."
"Whatever man, I’m not here to justify my decisions to you. I've been thinking. Do you think Redding snatched that girl because he's a sick fuck and likes to sell little girls to other sick fucks or do you think he took her to use her as leverage?"
