Maya heard the first shots and sat up straight. She counted five. Then ten. Then stopped counting because they came too fast and continuously.

People ran out of the bar screaming. Regular customers who'd been having drinks. They scattered across the parking lot looking for cover.

Maya's hand went to the door handle. Dominic told her to stay but screw that. She wasn't sitting here while he got shot.

The radio crackled. "We're pinned down. More security than we thought. Need backup at the south e

  • The biker who broke fate   Chapter 84: At The Door

    Ray came in twenty minutes after the baby arrived.He knocked soft and Dominic stepped out into the hall and pulled the door behind him."Talk," Dominic said."They found your old building," Ray said. "Landlord told them you moved out two nights ago. Didn't know where but he described you both well enough.""So they know we're still in town," Dominic said."And they're going street by street," Ray said. "Slow and quiet. Asking around, showing pictures to whoever opens their door."Dominic went still. "Pictures.""Old ones from what my guy said," Ray said. "But clear."Dominic put his back against the wall and looked at the ceiling for a second. Through the closed door he could hear Alice moving around and the baby making those small new sounds and Marta's voice low and steady."How close are they," Dominic said."Three streets over when I got the message," Ray said. "That was forty minutes ago.""So they could already be on this road," Dominic said."Could be," Ray said.They stood in

  • The biker who broke fate   Chapter 83: Wrong Time

    Ray and Dominic were still at the table working things out when Maya felt it.Not like the night before. That was soft and unsure. This was something else. Low and tight and it took her breath for a second.She sat there and didn't say anything.Marta was washing up at the sink and looked over at her. Women notice these things faster than men do."How long," Marta said quietly.Maya looked at her. "Just started," she said.Marta dried her hands slowly and came and sat next to her. Felt her stomach with both hands, firm and sure like Alice did."How far apart," Marta said."First one," Maya said. "Just now."Marta nodded. "Okay," she said. "Don't say anything to them yet."Maya looked at Ray and Dominic still talking at the other end of the table, low and serious, going back and forth about the two men."Okay," Maya said.Ten minutes later another one came. She gripped the edge of the table and breathed through it and Dominic didn't notice but Ray did and he looked at Marta and Marta g

  • The biker who broke fate    Chapter 82: Ray's Back Room

    They moved after dark.Didn't have much. Two bags between them, the coffee can with what was left of their money, Maya's packed bag for the baby that she grabbed last.Dominic checked the street from the window before they went down. Quiet out there. Nobody sitting in cars, nobody hanging around near the building.They walked the two streets to Ray's fast as Maya could manage which wasn't very fast at all at thirty six weeks but she didn't complain and Dominic didn't rush her.Marta opened the door before they even knocked.She looked at Maya first, then the bags, then stepped back without saying anything and let them in.The back room was small. Bed pushed against the wall, one window that looked out at the yard, small lamp on the floor. Clean though. Sheets fresh, towel folded on the end of the bed."Bathroom's across the hall," Marta said. "I put things in there you might need.""Thank you," Maya said.Marta looked at her the way she looked at people, straight and steady. "have You

  • The biker who broke fate   Chapter 81: Not Over

    Three days after Marcus left town things felt different.Not good exactly. Just lighter. Like the air in the room had changed a little bit.Maya noticed it in Dominic first. He came home from work and actually ate properly and sat with her after instead of going quiet in the corner with his thoughts. They watched something on his phone together, some old film she'd already seen twice before, and she fell asleep against his shoulder halfway through and he left her there.Small things. But she noticed.Friday evening Ray knocked and Dominic let him in and they sat at the table and Ray brought two beers and they drank them slow while Maya had water and listened to them talk about nothing much. Work, the weather turning, some road getting dug up two streets over.Normal talk.After Ray left Maya said, "You feel it too don't you.""Feel what," Dominic said."Like we can breathe a bit," Maya said.Dominic looked at her. "Little bit yeah," he said. "Don't want to say it too loud.""I know,"

  • The biker who broke fate   Chapter 80: Pitcher Road

    Dominic woke up before the alarm.Lay there in the dark for a bit staring at the ceiling then got up quiet so he didn't wake Maya and got dressed and made himself a cup of tea and sat at the small table drinking it slow.Six thirty in the morning and already his stomach was off.Maya stirred around seven and looked over at him from the bed."You slept," she said."Little bit," he said.She pushed herself up slow and sat on the edge of the mattress. "Eat something before you go," she said."Not hungry," he said."Eat anyway," she said.He made toast and ate it standing at the sink and then pulled his jacket on.Maya looked at him from the bed. "You got your phone.""Yeah," he said."Call me straight after," she said."I will," he said.He went out.Pitcher Road was on the other side of town, fifteen minute walk. Dominic took it slow, hands in his pockets, head down.Small motel, eight rooms, the kind of place that rented by the week and didn't ask questions. Peeling paint on the office

  • The biker who broke fate   Chapter 79: Ray Talks

    Dominic was back in forty minutes.Maya heard him on the stairs before the door opened. She knew his walk by now. The way he came up heavy when something was on his mind.He came in and sat down and kept his jacket on."Ray knows him," Dominic said.Maya looked up. "Knows Marcus.""Not personally," Dominic said. "But he's seen him around. Says he's been here four days already. Staying at that motel on Pitcher Road.""Did Ray talk to him," Maya said."Marta did," Dominic said. "Ran into him at the laundromat two days back. She didn't know who he was, just talked to him the way she talks to everybody.""What did he say to her," Maya said."Said he came to see an old friend," Dominic said. "Didn't give a name. Just said an old friend who moved out this way a while back."Maya sat with that."He's here for you," she said."Yeah," Dominic said."Ray say anything else," Maya said."Said he'd been asking around," Dominic said. "Nothing too obvious. Just chatting people up. Asking how long fo
