The Valkyrie MCย ย ย Chapter Nine
GHOSTI met the Duchess in my first year of university; freshers week, to be exact. We ran into each other at a welcome party at one of the student bars and just immediately hit it off. We were studying entirely different subjects and our timetables always clashed, but that didnโt stop us. Every spare minute, whether thatโs during the day or after lectures finished, we were together. We were inseparable.Iโd always loved her attitude to life. She was always confident and unapologetically herself. Sheโd stand up for the little guy if needed and she didnโt give two shits about the status quo. If someone wasnโt right, sheโd call it out.Sheโs smart, sheโs funny, sheโs hot and has always been great fun to be around. Six months into our first year, we went on our first official date. Even our choice of first date activity was perfectly usโฆ we went axe throwing, for steak, and then to a bar.Us being together was a no-brainer because we were just great together, both in and out of the bed

THE DUCHESSAn hour later, I had all of the patched Valkyrie members rounded up in Ragnarรถk, trying to work out what the hell to do about my dad. โIf it was anyone else, theyโd have a bullet in between their eyes,โ I rubbed my eyes. โBut this is my dad.โThe room was silent. No one envied me this choice.I let my head fall back on my shoulders. โFuck.โI took a deep breath, forcing my boss face back on.โThatโs a problem for later. Right now, all of you get ready to roll out. Someone is going to have to drive the truck because we will take Zodiac and Bull with us, and hopefully bring Blaze and co back.โ โKarma, pick the two newbies that are closest to patching. They can take the truck. Stock the boot with whatever weapons you find necessary. Iโd rather too much than not enough.โโOn it, boss.โโThe rest of you get yourselves ready to go. All of us need to be fully armed. Make sure you all eat something, we roll out in three hours. Got it?โโYes, boss.โI nodded, dismissing them all,

THE DUCHESSThe sound and smell of motorbikes is addictive. The feel of the road, the feel of the bike, all of it. I love it. I couldnโt help but smile as we tore up the motorway, it was almost enough to forget the reason for the trip in the first place. We had a four hour ride ahead of us. Three hours up boring-ass motorways followed by an hour through beautiful countryside. Weโd hardly gone fifty miles when I saw Shorty make our signal for needing fuel.I directed everyone off at the next service station, shut off my engine, and got ready to rip her a new one. โShorty! Why didnโt you fill up before we left?โShe glanced over at one of Rogueโs boys, a shy grin on her face.โSeriously, Shorty?! Fuck one of Rogueโs boys, be my guest. How did you forget to fill up?!โI shook my head as we waited for her to sort her shit.โYou know what, Karma. Iโm gonna put a fuel pump in at the bar.โShe sniggered. โSounds like a plan, boss. Getting laid before a run is no excuse though, I mean. I saw

GHOSTStanding behind the Duchess, my Alex, my Duchess, I could not believe the audacity of her โdadโ. I didnโt intend on letting her go, not again, but him immediately offering me the club she grew up in had him immediately even further in my shit books.If she hadnโt already done it, I would have gladly put a bullet in his head for her. Or killed him with my bare hands if that was what she wanted. Hell, Iโd tear the town apart if it was what would make her happy.She walked forwards towards the clubhouse, gun by her side, almost daring any of them to attempt to shoot her. โRogue, keep the peace out here whilst weโre in church.โHe nodded, turning back to face our group at the bottom of the driveway.Karma and I fell into step behind her; we were there if she needed the backup, but this was very definitely her show.She walked right up to the second in command, motioning for him to follow her inside. We all headed for church, mine and Karmaโs guns constantly trained on the second.Th

KARMAI practically skipped through the clubhouse towards the truck where weโd left Zodiac and Bull, with Ghost just behind me, a murderous expression on his face. It was safe to say we were both looking forward to kicking these two around a bit.As far as I saw it, the two of them threatened my best friend and my club. As far as Ghost saw itโฆ well. It was the woman who heโs loved and who has loved him (even if neither of them wanted to admit it) since they were eighteen.We dragged them from the truck towards the enclosed basketball courts around the back of the clubhouse, bringing a handful of newbies and prospects with us to stop them running for the gates.This was gonna be fun!Of course, tying them to a chair in a basement is how I normally get information out of people, but thatโs boring. Sometimes, an actual fight is more fun, and it's a better way to make a point too.โReady to do this, Ghost?โ I asked, even I could hear just how overjoyed I sounded.โAbsolutely, Karma.โ He j

THE DUCHESSWell, it was safe to say this trip hadnโt entirely gone as I thought it would.But then again, at the same time, what did I even expect? At least Razor killing my mum and not actually being my dad made that part so much easier.Once Tank and I finished up with Blaze, I shoved his phone in my back pocket and we made our way back up to the bar. I needed to wash my hands, and pour myself a glass of rum. It looked like Karma and Ghost planned the same thing since they were sitting at the bar drinking when we got back up there.I could just about hear their conversation when we walked into the room. Not enough to know exactly what they were talking about, but I could hear odd words. Enough to know that Karma had started calling Ghost โDukeโ.I stopped dead in my tracks when I heard that. Now he was back in my life, I wanted him to stay there. But I hadnโt thought about what that meant in MC terms yet.Weโd have to work out what the hell that looked like, especially if Ghost sti

GHOSTWhen I heard the sound of a gunshot from inside the chapel, my immediate reaction was to run in, to make sure my Duchess is okay. Butโฆ Rogue and Karma stopped me.โGhost, I know it's hard,โ Karma's voice was strong, with no room to disobey. โYou have to let her do this. One shot is all that was taken. If she was in trouble, our signal to each other is two shots in quick succession.โ She paused for a moment. โThat shot was from her gun. No one in this club ever uses a silencer of any kind, so we can assume hers is the only shot that was taken. Someone disagreed with, threatened or offended her and she killed them.โMy eyes were wide. I was surprised she had managed to come to that conclusion, but I guess they had worked together for a long time.Fortunately for my sanity, Duchess and Tank walked back out the clubhouse, heading in our direction. They were both laughing, so it couldn't have been too bad. There were fresh blood splatters on her jacket, so whoever she shot must have

THE DUCHESSFortunately, the trip back was easy and smooth sailing. No one needed to stop for fuel because they fucked up, and everyone even stopped for a piss before we left. They were just as eager to get back as I was.Once we were back, I pulled just Karma into Ragnarรถk, leaving Rogue and Ghost at the bar, and the rest of Valkyrie and the Henchmen drinking hard.โWhat do you think, K?โ I asked, my voice quiet. I was well aware that this place wasnโt actually soundproofed. I should probably fix thatโฆโWhat about?โ she smirked.โYou know what I mean. Ghost.โโBoss, the benefit of being the boss is that you can do whatever the fuck you want.โ My face must have been sceptical. โPatching him wonโt change anything, D. He can stand beside you without having to take over.โShe sighed when she saw my face. โWhat is bugging you, boss?โI pulled a face. โWe operate in an incredibly misogynistic world, K. Iโve had to do a lot and fight a lot to get to where I am. I donโt want to fuck up ever

The Valkyrie MCย ย ย Chapter Twenty Six
THE DUKEShe hadn’t even been gone long and I missed my Duchess.That was why the ride up was one of the worst of my life. It felt like the trip to Thunderstruck took twelve hours, but in fact, Fishnet and I along with a couple Henchmen brothers made it within three and a half hours.My Duchess, Karma and Tank were all waiting for us at the top of the driveway when we arrived, the Duchess with a smile on her face that whilst mostly genuine, did seem forced around her eyes. She was stressed, really stressed.I made a beeline straight for her, but other than a smile, she gave no greeting, other than a stressed “let’s get this done s

THE DUCHESS“What can you tell us, Rooster?” I asked as soon as we sat down in his living room, glasses of whiskey in hand. “Your brother has been breaking into and trying to set fires on my land, and considering that’s not all he’s been up to… I’d rather get this sorted sooner rather than later.”“What are you going to do with him when you find him?” Rooster raised one eyebrow as he spoke, concern evident in his voice. Christopher might be an ass, but he’s still Rooster’s brother.“That depends,” I replied. “It depends on anything else he’s been up to, why he’s doing it, you know the drill.”

KARMAI dragged the Duchess to the clubhouseโs bar. A shooting range would have been better for venting anger, but the one here wasnโt on the clubโs grounds and I knew she wouldn't want to go that far. This one also doesnโt have the stash of axes and throwing knives we have at home, and that was really what she needed at this moment in time.The one thing Thunderstruck did always have going for it though was a well stocked bar. โNot having a great time with relatives at the moment, are you, boss?โ I couldnโt hold back the chuckle in my voice as I spoke, pouring us a hearty glass each from the bottle of whiskey Iโd grabbed when I leaned over the bar.She scowled at me, downing her drink. It was a good thing Iโd known her as long as I had and that we were as close as we are because otherwise sheโd have killed me by now, second or not.An hour and lots of drinking later, I watched her pull out her phone, put it on speaker phone and dial someone, stalking back towards the chapel as she d

THE DUCHESSโYou actually have a face?โShe spun the laptop to face me, looking very proud of herself.โSmashed it, Shorty. Can you run facial and see if you can ID the guy?โShe shrugged. โHopefully, boss. The quality is not good. I might be able to get a shortlist, but if anyone can get any further information, that would be handy.โโThanks, Shorty. Can you send me a copy of that photo? Weโll see if anyone knows our mystery crap arsonist. Tank, can you show a printout of that around the club and see if anyone recognises them?โThey both nodded.Now, to call Fishnet and my Duke.The phone rang for what felt like forever. Fishnet can be pretty bad at picking up the phone when she wants to be.โDuchess!โ she shouted when she eventually answered.โHey, Fishnet. Can you grab Rogue and the Duke, drag them into Ragnarรถk, and stick me on loudspeaker?โA couple minutes of shuffling and they were all there.โAlright, boss. What's going on?โ Fishnet's voice was all business.โI'm about to emai

THE DUCHESSI was finally ready twenty minutes late, but I'm the boss, so phooey.โHey, boss?โ Karma shouted when she saw Duke and I walking down the stairs.โWhat's up, K?โ I raised one eyebrow.โJust wanted to let you know I've requested a quote for soundproofing for your bedroom, and, because that will take a while, I've ordered noise cancelling headphones for all patched members.โThe Duke snorted, trying to hold back his laughter and failing.โI hope that includes Duke and I, K, youโre just as bad and you are right next door.โโOf course, boss,โ she grinned. โNo one would have heard me over you two just now though, trust me.โโAlright, alright,โ I chuckled. โEveryone ready to roll?โI glanced around the room, meeting Shotgun and Shortyโs eyes, both of whom nodded.โOkay then, letโs get going. The sooner we get this done, the sooner we can come home.โ I turned to face Duke. โIโll see you later.โ I pressed a chaste kiss to his lips. โI love you.โโI love you too, my Duchess,โ he ki
The Valkyrie MCย ย ย Chapter Twenty One
THE DUKEI knew my Duchess needed to do this and I even knew why she wasnโt taking me with her, but that didnโt mean I liked it. Sheโd been in the business long enough that knew what she was doing, so her decisions would always be perfect. I trusted her with my life, and in an MC world, it could quickly come to that, and thereโs no bigger praise.I meant it when I said Iโd do whatever she needed me to because this is her show, the Valkyrie is her baby, and if she needed me here, that is where Iโd be.I was so lost in my own head that I didnโt really notice my Duchess had been pulling me along behind her until I heard a door lock and she pushed me up against it.Her arms wrapped around my neck, her hands in my hair, tugging me down and capturing my mouth in a passionate, deep kiss.She was fighting me for dominance, but I wasnโt going to let her win. THE DUCHESSHis left hand gripped my hair close to my scalp, and I gasped at the slight bite of pain that somehow left me even wetter. H

THE DUCHESSAfter his danceโฆ we got dragged back down to the party, and then he immediately crashed afterwards, so he still owed me one. That, plus the fact I got woken up early by my phone ringing constantly with Tank freaking out meant I was in a horrifically bad mood when I sat down at the bar with a cup of coffee at 8am the next morning.I needed six cups of coffee before I could even think about dragging everyone into Ragnarรถk to talk about the upcoming hostile takeover.โDuchess,โ Rogue nodded as he sat next to me with his own cup of coffee.โMorning. I noticed you had company last night, Rogue?โ I smirked. Iโd seen two newbies sneaking back out of the guest room he was staying in when I got up this morning.โI did indeed,โ he grinned. โNo Duke yet?โโStill in bed,โ I grumbled.โTrouble in paradise, Duchess?โI rolled my eyes, but before I could talk, Dukeโs hands appeared on my shoulders.โMorning, my Duchess,โ he kissed my forehead.โMorning,โ I grumbled.โAre you mad about la

THE DUCHESSโCome along, my Duke,โ I held out my hand once we got back to Valhalla. โLetโs go enjoy your party.โโDo we have to?โ he pouted. โCanโt we just go to bed?โ His hands slid around my waist, tugging me against him. โIโd rather take all your clothes off.โโSorry babe, parties are tradition. Not only are we celebrating a run well done, but three new members patched today, and being one of those membersโฆ youโve got to be there.โโFine,โ he sighed sarcastically, pouting, but I could see the smile in his eyes.โYouโll love it,โ I winked. โWe can have a few drinks, a joint or two, then fall into bed and stay there for the rest of the night.โ I wrapped my arms around his neck, tiptoeing so I could whisper in his ear. โI promise itโll be worth the wait.โI ran my tongue up the shell of his ear, enjoying the shiver that ran through him in response.He smirked, before bringing his lips down to meet mine in a deep, passionate and tongue-filled kiss that promised dirty things.โAre you s

THE DUKEIโm not too proud to admit that I squealed like a schoolgirl when I saw the blue YZF-R1 parked out the front that matched the keys in my hand. Exactly the same as my Duchessโ, just bright blue to her yellow.She'd even added a โDukeโ Valkyrie decal that matched the one on my cut. Stickler for the details, my girl.โShall we go for a ride?โ she asked, a smirk on her face. She knew sheโd got this bike spot on.โLetโs do it, my Duchess,โ I replied, pulling her into my arms for a kiss, spinning her around. Whilst I was distracted, Karma had brought the Duchessโ YZF around the front, parking it next to mine.โCome along then, Duke,โ the Duchess grinned. โAre you going to stare in awe at me all day, or shall we go take your new bike for a spin?โI watched her swap her cut back for her full leather jacket, pull on her gloves and tuck her helmet under her arm. โReady?โ she asked with a grin when she noticed I'd not even moved.I nodded, turning to look for my helmet, before noticing
