Chapter 67 (Beauty's Breath) (Zero)
“After got it, Knight and Snake are already inside, I'll take the ladies through the back.”
“Are we ready for this shit?” River asks us as we loom around our bikes.
The lights inside the club are red and reflect partly on the ground and bike.
All the men and women are humming for the night ahead. I look up into the night’s sky and like all
Satan nights before the sky is clear.
“Let’s do this.” I look up to the sky one last time as I follow my brothers inside. Today a new Satan
Sniper will rise.
The rest of the brother’s head inside the Night Club as I take the girls around the side.
“Why can’t we just go in the front like the men?” Chadley asks.
“You’ll see soon enough,” Mercy says from the front of me.
When I open the door, the brothers are all in hoods and the sixth star we had made lays on the floor in
the centre of the Night Club. I leave the women standing there in awe as I grab my own hood from the
bar.
It took us hours to move all the table and chairs and make the open space big enough to do this. The
metal star in the centre of the room took four brothers to move.
“Well, as you have figured out, today is the day we welcome a new member into our, we patch them,
brand them and by our blood they are reborn. But first, as it is customary the prospect of our choosing
has to make the ultimate sacrifice, give up all who you are and become all that we are. A Satan Sniper
believes in one law, the law of our brothers, the law of our women and the law of our Club. We respect
our own, we give our life for our own and by the blood vow you take today, is the same vow you take toOriginal content from NôvelDrama.Org.
your grave. Step forward, Jade.” River’s speech is well-spoken and true to every word he has said. We
live, we die as a Satan Sniper.
I hear a few of the women whisper as Jade steps closer. Spade, Knight, Killer, Snake and I take our
positions at the points of the star. River takes his place as our president. The room lights are dimmed,
Jade steps into the centre of the star.
“Jade, years ago you joined us, today you become us. Do you take the vows of a Satan Sniper?”
“Yes.” She says loudly.
River extends his hand and she gives him hers.
“Will you bleed for us?” River asks
“Yes.”
“Will you kill for us,” I ask
“Yes.”
“Will you give up all that you are for us?” Snake asks
“Yes.”
“Do you promise to put The Satan Snipers above anything else in your life, even death,” Killer asks
“Yes.”
“Do you vow your honesty, no matter the consequences to us,” Spade asks
“Yes.”
“Then bleed for us now, and die for us tomorrow,” River says as he lifts the hand he is holding and the
knife to her palm. He slits across her palm and the blood gushes out.
“A deep cut, a deep vow. Now when we drink you are of us, and when you drink, we are one with you.”
He sips the blood from her hand and Jade walks around us and the brothers in the circle do the same.
We each cut our hand. She takes a small suck from us. It is a sign of trust, of binding ourselves to her.
We are letting her into our fold and the men standing on this Star are the ones who will have her back
and vow her in as one of our women.
We all throw our hoods off, and Spade walks forward with her jacket. He hands it to her, and I don’t
miss the way he is staring at her.
The brother feels something for her. They have history, the two of them have a fuck ton. The raw kind
that comes from watching the one you love to get ripped away from you. The thought has me looking to
the other side of the room to Beauty.
I frown when I don’t find her. Noticing the back door is open I give Texas a look who is the closest to the
women.
He goes by the door and looks out and nods his head.
I congratulate Jade with a quick hug and a kiss on her head, “I’m proud of you kid.”
“Thanks, Zee man.”
I go to my woman, she is standing outside, her body is stiff as she stares up into the sky.
“I can’t understand why you still run away from me. Always running.” My words just come as I get to her
and wrap my arms around her waist.
“Why does the light burn you and the darkness is meant to scare the world, but both are something you
can just stare at the whole time.”
“That is how I feel when I look at you, I can just stare the whole day.” I squeeze her when she puts her
fingers on my arm.
“When I first met you, I was too scared to even look you in the eye. I should have known that when I did
it would be eyes that will haunt me for eternity. When I left and went to Lucca, it was your eyes that
kept me alive, Zero.”
Her honesty, the rough tenor of her voice, the feeling of her in my arms, makes me a man. I am just a
man in love.
“I love you too Beauty.”
“What I feel for you Zero is much more than love. Love dies, this can’t be killed, it is immortal.”
We watch the night, the stars are non, the music is loud and I hold this woman in my arms. I can’t stop
the passing thought that whispers in my mind, This, is power.
When we get inside the part is in full swing. I grab myself a beer from behind the bar, nudge Texas to
move out of the way. I get Beauty her orange juice and grab some snacks for the table.
I already know this is going to be a long night.
“Hey, everyone.” River’s voice comes loud as the music is dropped.
We all standstill, waiting to hear what the President is saying.
“It has come to my knowledge that we are having a new original soon.”
The patch members start making a ruckus, knowing exactly what River is saying. I stand here, next to
Texas and smile. I think my face is blood red.
“Beggar and Zero are having a baby,” Mercy yells over River.
Everybody goes crazy and the women rush to Beauty who is sitting on the sofa, ready to gut my eyes
out for shooting my mouth off.
“Congrats Brother. Better get fuckin’ because when babies come knockin’ you ain’t gettin’ nothin’.”
Texas says as he tips his hat and walks away.
All the brothers and woman congratulate me, except for one. I look for the brother but I don’t see him at
first.
I catch him on the end of the room nursing a beer.
Knights story has many levels for the hurt and pain he went through. He was once a man that only
wanted a family. His methods to get it is his story to tell, but the consequences cost him a son.
“Want to head out and check on those names Diamond sent?” I ask him, knowing that he needs to get
the fuck out of here.
He stands up, “Yeah, let’s go.”
I give Beauty a kiss on my way out. Killer and Knight are already on their bikes when I get to the front
of Night Club.
The name is going to take some getting used to, but After won the bet, so she got to name the club.
We head out into the town. The place is quiet, not many people on the street except for the few at
diners and drive-in.
The night turns out to be a bust when we arrive at the clubhouse just after three in the morning. The
soldiers must have known we coming for them.
Either way, I am glad when I walk into my bedroom and find Beauty on the bed, still up with a book in
her hand.
She’s in one of my t-shirts and her legs are covered under a thin pullover blanket.
“I can get used to coming home to this.” I smile when she barely lifts her head from her book.
“I put a bud in the fridge for you.”
“Nah, I think I reached my drinking quota for the day. I wouldn’t mind eating your pussy if you offering.”
She slams the book closed and looks at me with her black eyes that have more than once left me in a
puddle.
“I didn’t wait up to get nothing, strip.” My eyes widen and I am caught off the wagon by her blunt words.
I laugh, “Yes ma’am.”
She smiles when I begin to slowly remove my shirt. Her eyes on my body, watching, waiting. It feels
like she is the predator in the room. I am her prey.
I work her body until the late morning, over again. I can’t get enough. Beauty screams my name, and
groans in pleasure and I don’t stop. When we finally leave our bedroom it is already afternoon time and
everyone is off on their own shit. It is the first day in a while that we have the place to ourselves.
And I fucking love it.
