Vivienne's POV

I didn’t sleep. Not really, and it didn't help that no matter how hard I tried, the gift of sleep just wasn't bestowed on me last night. I knew I wasn't exactly mother nature's favorite, but I didn't think it was this bad. Hell, even criminals and worse people could sleep whenever they wanted to, and yet, an innocent being like me just couldn't bring my body to relax and drift into an unconscious state, even if it was just for a couple of hours.

I'd tried everything, but none of them worked. I'd tried counting sheep, I even tried to sing myself a lullaby, and at one point, I deliberated heading to the kitchen to sneak myself a glass of milk. I heard it helped with sleeping, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Why? One, since Ronan was nowhere near our room, it meant he was somewhere around the house, and since our last talk hadn't gone well, the last thing I wanted was to talk to him at all, and two, a part of me just screamed that the only thing he was going t

  • The Biker King's Bride    Chapter 55

    Vivienne's POV The air thickened the moment Lana’s voice cut through the noise, and I hated that I noticed. I hated that I felt it across my skin almost instantly, and I hated that her mere presence was more than enough to sour my mood for life. That sugary venom slithered across the room, drawing gazes that hadn’t been on me a second ago. Now they were, and I didn't miss the many emotions dancing across their faces. While some of them were curious, the others were amused. One thing was certain though, they were all waiting for a show.Callie’s drunken grip on my arm loosened, but her wide eyes stayed on me like she’d just thrown me into the pit without meaning to. My throat tightened as realization dawned on me. This wasn’t just about who led the women or handled the preparations anymore, this was about proving whether I belonged at Ronan’s side at all.“Well?” Lana purred, stepping closer, her stilettos clicking against the stained floor like a metronome counting down my humiliatio

  • The Biker King's Bride    Chapter 53

    Ronan’s POV I didn't believe in bad days, but today was definitely one of my bad ones. If I had the tiniest inkling that the day was going to go the way it did today, then best believe I wouldn't have bothered getting up from bed either. I would have willingly drowned myself in a couple of bottles of scotch, whisky and whatever the fuck I had on my damn shelf. When I'd said Vivienne was good at disappearing and hiding, I didn't think she'd take it up a notch than she already had. If I'd thought she was hiding when I first arrived, by the end of the day, it was clear she'd gone into a full blown disappearing act. She was literally nowhere to be found. I asked my men, asked everyone who crossed my paths, and even threatened to kick Callie out of the club if she didn't tell me where Vivienne was. She didn't tell me, because she had no idea and was well damn fed up with me bothering her every damn minute of the day. By nighttime, I'd accepted defeat and told myself she was going t

  • The Biker King's Bride    Chapter 52

    Ronan's POV I’d been looking for her for hours, and still, nothing. There was still no glimpse of her hair, no sound of her voice, and not even the damn smell of her perfume. She was good at disappearing, I’d give her that, too good if I was being him with myself, and every second she stayed hidden, my patience frayed thinner, snapping like a live wire under too much weight.I honestly thought trying to save her from Maverick and Lana was going to do the trick. Heck, Vivienne was a firecracker that hardly needed saving, but I guess for once, just once I actually thought she was going to give her the chance to intervene. I was thos down for a hint that she was willing to end whatever silent and cold war we were in, but apparently, I was wrong. I wasn’t built for silence. I wasn’t built for her walking past me like I didn’t exist, and I wasn't built for the distractions turning up at every point. My mind tempted me to walk down the one path I was avoiding, but I pulled myself out of t

  • The Biker King's Bride    Chapter 51

    Vivienne's POV I thought I’d washed the tears from my face well enough, and even if I had, deep down I just knew for a fact that it wouldn't change anything. Even if I did get to scrub off evidence of me being weak, would it help to stop the ache that was currently coiling in my chest, whose sole purpose was to choke me to death? Maybe I didn't look like I had just finished crying, maybe I did, but the bathroom mirror didn't show me anymore. It showed a girl who didn’t look quite broken anymore, but who wasn’t whole either. Without so much as another thought in my head, I forced my legs to move, forced myself out of that dingy little sanctuary, even though the walls in there still held the echo of Maverick’s words.You want me to make her disappear?I swallowed hard, but the phrase clung to me like a second skin. No matter how far I walked, I couldn’t peel it off.I wouldn't say I knew Maverick, but his words were a shocker, even for me. I hated that I was thinking about it, but I

  • The Biker King's Bride    Chapter 50

    Vivienne's POV I didn't stop. I didn't stop walking even though the pain in my legs were more than enough reason for me to do so, or at least find a spot to rest for a little while. I had considered it, especially when the sole of my feet had started burning up, and when each step felt like I was walking barefoot across a ground tainted with broken glass and even sharper needles. While I felt like I was going to lose my balance any time soon, my legs weren't the only part of my body fighting for their life. I blinked back as many times as I could, but doing that didn't reduce the chances of the dam at the back of my eyes staying put. If anything, it only reminded me that I had limited time before I would break down and everyone in the clubhouse would know my biggest secret. I was a crybaby. I wasn't as tough as I painted myself to be, and I definitely didn't think I was a match with Lana. My mind swirled with a million and one thoughts, and I hated how they were mostly centered on
