Afraid of what?

last update Last Updated: 2025-03-15 20:43:41

Mason POV

I watch as Hera walks away angrily after calling me a bastard and a liar.

A bastard and a liar? That's what I am in her eyes? I have to admit,she is the first woman to ever disrespect me and walk scotfree,not even…

Instead of getting angry,I find myself grinning like the fool she has turned me into.

But then again…She was clearly angry at me. What did I do wrong? I try to think of what I did wrong but come up with nothing. 

A tap on my shoulders interrupts my thoughts . I turn around and come face to face with a grinning Jepoy. 

“What's with  that stupid smile of yours?” I ask and Jepoy glares at me. 

“ You are the only person in the world to call me stupid!”

I smile at his words, “Yet you are the biggest fool. You can't even tell that your woman is angry at you.” He adds and now, it's my time to glare at him. 

“ What do you mean? She was angry at me, I just don't know why.” I refute. 

“ There, it proves my point.” 

I look at Jepoy and the urge to strangle him fills my mind. But this is JP, my best friend and member of the shadow riders motorcycle club,my club. 

“ Since you are my brother I will help you figure out why.” Jepoy offers and I give him a skeptical look. 

“What? You think I am clueless about how to deal with women?" he asks and I snicker. 

“For someone who has had no Woman by his side for a decade, how are you supposed to help me?" I ask, my voice dripping with sarcasm. 

A familiar look of pain flashes jepoy’s eyes before he immediately  schools his emotions. 

“Just because I don't date doesn't mean I am entirely clueless about it. Furthermore, don't you want to win your beauty?” Jepoy insists and I sigh. 

Indeed there's nothing more I want than to stake my claim on Hera. Although I made my intentions clear to her,that's not enough. I want to own her, to claim her, to possess every inch of those luscious hips of her. Those sexy eyes when she looks at me, it feels like a siren call to hell, one that I am willing to indulge. 

Thinking about her body pressed against mine as I pleasure her gives me a damn erection.

“Look at you, drooling after thinking about a woman no one would believe that you are the leader of a MC.” Jepoy mocks me, feigning a disgusted look on his face

I fight the urge  to roll my eyes at Jepoy’s words.  Drooling isn't all I do when I think about my Hera. I can't count the number of times I have jerked off thinking about her. The thought of her lips, those full, pink lips that make me imagine how good they would feel on my dick. I can already imagine the look on her face if I force her to suck me off.

That's just one of the things I would have her do, I have a whole list. I would love to have her tied up and naked as I use her body for my pleasure.

" Earth to you idiot!" Jepoy says as he slaps my head. I snap out of my fantasies.

"What the fuck are you thinking? I know that look and I would like to say it's disgusting." He says.

I ignore him but can't help the smile that paints my lips. I make my way to my bike with every intention of leaving the club. Jepoy's footsteps echo behind me. 

" By the way, what did Linda say?" Jepoy asks and my mood suddenly darkens.

I take a deep breath and let it out. Linda... That wretched woman! 

" If she wasn't Lily's mom, I would have already put a bullet in her head." I growl in anger. 

" What? I thought you came to make peace with her so that she can withdraw the case?" Jepoy asks and I take a deep breath before exhaling loudly. 

" That was the plan but she even threatened me. Before I could do anything, Hera walked on us." I answer. I can feel my frustration creeping in me. 

Linda is really trying my patience by threatening me twice. I am not someone who appreciates threats. The last person to threaten me is already serving as nutrients for the trees in the forest. 

" What? You are saying Hera walked on you with Linda? " Jepoy suddenly asks, his tone of voice alarming.  I turn around to face him, nodding. 

" That's right. I wanted to strangle the life out of that conniving bitch but... "

"Forget about Linda for now, your woman misunderstood you." Jepoy informs me and I frown, not understanding. 

" She walked on you with Linda and I assume in a  confined place. She thinks you have something going on with her. It's no wonder she looked mad earlier."

The moment Jepoy's words sink in, the air suddenly grows heavier and panic creeps in. The urge to go after Hera and clarify the issue fills me. I can't let her think that Linda and I... 

" Don't even think about it." Jepoy's words stop me in my tracks. I frown at him.

" Think about what?" I ask, half annoyed, half anxious. 

"Don't think about going after Hera. Let her cool off."

" Let her cool off? Jepoy, she thinks I am fucking that vile woman after confessing to her not long ago." I explain, my voice rising.

Jepoy's lips curve in a grin and I look at him like he is an idiot.

" What are you grinning for? Can't you see that this is serious?"

" That's why I am grinning. You have never been so interested in a woman before. You always go after your prey, fuck  and discard them but you have never been interested enough to chase after them. It's refreshing seeing this side of you." Jepoy answers.

He does have a point. I have never been this invested in a woman. Hera is the first.

" This is different. I do want to fuck her but the desire to own her, stake my claim and mark her as mine, it's new. I want her and I will have her. But I also want her trust. The look of anger and something else I couldn't decipher in her eyes earlier, it was too much. At first, I didn't relate to the pained look on her face but after realizing what made her angry,I feel antsy." 

" You are afraid Mason. " Jepoy states and I narrow my eyes at him. 

" Afraid? Afraid of what? I always get any woman I want, she won't be any different." I declare. I am used to women fighting for my attention, fighting for a chance to share a bed with me, to have a taste of what my dick can offer them... I don't believe Hera won't be the same . .. 

" Yet you want to chase after her and explain yourself. You don't want to lose her. That's what this is about." Jepoy challenges. He is not entirely true. I knew from the moment I saw her that she was different. It's not about her curvaceous body which is considered below beauty standards here in the city. There's something more about her...something that enticed me from the word go. 

" I am your best friend. The person who knows you the best. I'll never advise you to do something that will harm you. Let her cool off then confess what you were doing with Linda and your relationship with her." Jepoy suggests and my eyes widen in shock.

" No fucking way!"

Didn't get any dick lately?” An annoying voice sounds from behind me. I turn around, glaring at Davis. " You know I can always help you with a free fuck. After all, not many men would be interested in penetrating a fat woman like you." He says, as he licks his lips.I turn around and walk away from him, his laughter rings in my ears. I clench my fists. No matter how many times I hear that world,I'll never get used to the mockery and scorn that follows it. Davis has always been harassing me but I have already mastered the art of ignoring him.

She is mine and only I have the right to touch her. ItsIt'sa good thing I arrived before he could violate her. God knows he would be dead by now if Hera didn't plead with me to leave him alive. The anger I'm feeling right now is unlike anything I've ever felt before. It is so intense, I think it can be tasted in the air. Hera, I'm looking at her from the corner of my eye, I don't say anything, just keep driving to her home. At this point, I don't even care if she accuses me of stalking her because that's exactly how I knew where she lives.

    Hera POV I pace around the room anxiously. I don't know how many times I have checked my phone to track the time Mason has been gone. I have a gnawing feeling that Davis is going to be in deep shit if Mason went back to deal with him.Don't get me wrong,I am not worried about that mother fucking asshole. I just don't want Mason to get in trouble for killing someone. That's what he was about to do when I stopped him. I don't even know why I am worried about him considering he is a liar and a bastard as I called him the last time at the club. I just know that it will pain me if something happens to him because of me. Yes, that's it. I just don't want to see him in deep shit for helping me.After what feels like forever,the sound of a roaring engine reaches my ears and I sprint outside the house just in time for my car to pull off at the driveway. I am beside him when he exits the car." Are you alright?" I ask,my eyes scanning his body." Why wouldn't I be fine?" Mason asks,his gaze in

I am not going to allow anyone to walk all over me, not again. I should have stopped him when he started harassing me. Maybe things wouldn't have escalated to this point. Today,I have to make amends for that. As I approach his ward,I recognize Justin standing outside, pacing around. A grin breaks on my face as I approach him. " Hera,is this really a good idea?" He whines immediately when I reach him. He has a worried expression on his face. " Relax. Why won't it be a good idea! An eye for an eye, remember?" Carlos doesn't look convinced, "Why don't we ask the girls to take care of it? They are best at what they do." Justin proposes. I shake my head in refusal. " The girls have been busy lately. Let's not bother them with this kind of thing. I can handle it on my own." I state firmly. I pat his shou

    Hera POV Mason's words are still ringing in my ears. He said I am the first woman to sit on his ride. I don't even know why the thought of it makes me happy. I shouldn't believe him but why am I inclined to trusting his words? He is an attractive man, the kind ladies would willingly drop their panties and bend over to be fucked by him. Everything about him screams bad boy,the kind that have a long line of beauties waiting to offer themselves to him. And me? I am just a fat bitch as they call me. There's nothing special about him, especially not for a man of his caliber. ' Come on Hera, don't kid yourself. He can't possibly mean that. You can't listen to his sweet nothings.'My mind is telling me not to trust him, but my heart is saying otherwise. I feel safe when I'm with him. He has this aura that exudes confidence, power, and charisma. He protected me against being defiled by that asshole. " A penny for your thoughts?" Mason inquires. " You have been awfully quiet since we left y

    The smile on my face faltered and I watched as the lady walked away without sparing me another glance. Did she just threaten me to stay away from her man? My eyes narrowed at her and a glint flickered in my eyes." Hera, right?" Another lady approached me, stretching her hands for a handshake. I took her hand,nodded and offered her a polite smile." It's nice to meet you. I am Raven." She said before turning to look at the direction the blonde girl from before disappeared into. " Ignore Fiona. She is just being a bitch." Raven informed me and I nodded. Yeah, I could already tell that she is one nasty bitch. " I have a feeling you and I are gonna be the best of friends. " Raven added and I forced a smile. I could tell that she was a nice person if she was not just pretending. " Do you want to take a look at the farmhouse? " Raven inquired and I nodded. " Of course. Anything to leave behind this tense environment. " I whispered and she giggled, dragging me by hand. Raven led me outs

I don't know how you managed to fool your husband into believing she is your niece. I bet he won't appreciate knowing that you have been lying to him for years. "Helen looks at me. There is fear in her eyes, but she is also angry. She is not as calm and poised as she wants everyone to believe. She is a mess underneath that facade." What do you want? "" Nothing much. Just stay the fuck away from my life and we won't have any issues." I declare before leaving the office. The boys are busy playing . Jepoy walks to me when he notices me.

    Hera POV My mother's words are like a hard punch delivered straight into my guts. My stomach twists and my chest tightens. I find myself laughing out of bitterness." Finally mom, you've said the words that you have kept buried deep inside you. You finally confessed how you feel about me." I say,a tear slipping past my eyes." Since I am nothing but a mistake, I'll not show my face in front of you anymore. I'll leave and you can finally be with the one you consider your perfect daughter." I announce. There's no sign of remorse on my mother's face. Quite the contrary, she looks at me with so much indifference." Don't exaggerate and make a big deal out of nothing." She scoffs." You think I am exaggerating? That I am making a big deal out of nothing? So you calling me a mistake and wishing I was never born is okay? I am not allowed to react?" I ask incredulously." If you behaved like a proper woman and avoided embarrassing me,do you think I would have been pushed to say that?" She c

Those damn fools." I assume you guys had a serious talk?" Justin asks,staring at me via the rearview mirror. I can feel the sarcasm in his words. After the commotion that happened at the club,I don't expect him to assume Hector and I just...talked."The job had to be done somehow, Justin. It's the best way to protect those girls." I reply with a sigh. I look outside the window. As much as Justin believes that violence can't solve everything,he also knows that only violence can solve some things. He doesn't say anything else and neither do I. We drive in silence. Justin drives me at the club entrance." Is there anything you need from me?" He asks and I nod.

Leave from here and get me my regular type of toy." Hector screams at me. I turn around to leave and draft a different way to get to him. But before I can make my exit,his voice booms through the room." On second thought,stay and entertain me tonight. I want to find out why that bastard is stupidly chasing after a fat bitch." Hector spats. By bastard,he must mean Carlos since the two of them have been in cahoots.I smile to myself,happy that his curiosity just gave me the opportunity to strike him. I walk back to the center of the room and grip the pole." Hera,you can do this. It's just dancing after all." I try to convince myself as I start swaying my body to the beat. Hector is perched on the sofa with a glass of scotch in hand,sipping leisurely.Stupid assed mafias, thinking that drinking

"My man is indeed ruthless but you don't expect any less from the leader of killer Angels, do you?" The horrified expression on Carlos' face gives me undiluted pleasure. " You are... the infamous MG? " Carlos stutters. " Surprised right? We had the same expression when we discovered her identity. She doesn't look the part, right? " Raven jabs him. Carlos is too shocked to say shit, not like I expect him to say anything. " A life for a life you bastard. I'll let your blood appease our lost comrade. " Shadow whispers into his ears. The fear in his eyes is so delicious, it's giving me a high." Don't worry, Hector will soon follow you to hell. You two can reunite there and continue scheming." I taunt him and prepare to leave."

The attack at my house was intentional. It was a warning or something but for what exactly? I can't put my finger on the reason why my car was bombed alongside mason's own bike. I have considered Mason being the one they were after but from the footage the girls retrieved,I was the target." We were able to locate Hector's hideout." Nyx declares and that revelation captures my undivided attention." Where?" I ask and Nyx offers me a printed map. I scan my eyes through the map and I can't help but muse at his well thought hiding spot." Not too far from the club odyssey. It's no wonder he hit them so hard." I comment. Nyx knows about the club odyssey being part of shadow riders since I asked her to inves

I insisted on sneaking an attack and you said it was not satisfying.” I snarl back at him. The nerve of this mother-fucker to accuse me of screwing an operation we planned for so many days.“ Oh really? Then why did you eliminate all the men we took when we retreated?” He asks and I fight the urge to throw a snide remark at him. I mean,how is he a member of the Luca family if he doesn't know even the most basic rules of a failed assassination mission.“ Don't give me that look.” He glares at me.“The men had to die. Leaving them alive in the hands of the enemy is like offering free information about us. It had to be done.” I answer and he nods.“ That makes sense.” Of course it does.“ I don't care how you do i
