I have to deal with the consequences of my decision. For a while we didn't see each other, but last week I caught her with one of the Devore brothers. It lit a fire within me and I knew I couldn't ever let her belong to another man, so I told her. I walked straight up to Rebel and made sure she knew she's my woman and she always will be. I leave her there speechless so she can process what I've said, and by that evening I'm heading out on a run. It should've been like any other, but it wasn't. I was shot and Rebel came to my bedside.

Scarred by the past. Damaged in the present. I fear my future and what it holds. Mara-LeeIt's Christmas, and everything is different.

One night. That was what we signed up for. Whip I had a great night of drinkin' and went back to the hotel with a gorgeous woman. Prettier than anyone I've ever seen before. We had mind-blowing sex, and I mean mind blowing. So good I've had dreams about her ever since.Hell, I told all my brother's about the piece of ass I nailed at the concert and they told me I was a fool for lettin' her get away. They were right. I was the world's biggest idiot. I shouldn't have ever let her walk outta that hotel room that mornin' but I was asleep when she left. I didn't think I'd ever run into her, but I did in the most surprising of places. Only, when we found each other again everything clicked. Every memory came rushing back to the front of my mind.This wasn't just any woman. She was my wife. I married a woman when I was drunk, and from the look on her face, she must've remembered and that's why she was nowhere to be found in the mornin'. My brother's said lettin' her go was a mistake, so I'll make damn sure I don't let it happen again.

She's a new face, and something I need to have.AxeEveryone left and now I'm picking up the pieces. After the fire, what could I expect? We know who was behind it and the club is ready for a fight. No one fucks with us and gets away with it, but I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't distracted.I can't stop staring at her. There are plenty of reasons I shouldn't go after her, the biggest being she's Kenny's friend, but I couldn't care less.When I see something I want, I go after it, regardless if there's a threat right around the corner.

Malice For as long as I can remember, I've only felt one thing-hatred. No other emotion has ever lived within the confines of my soul. On many occasions I've been told I have no soul. Not that I give a damn. It only means I won't get burned. Growing up I saw the people closest to me get hurt by those who were important to them. It showed me that feelings were overrated. It worked fine until that one day, the day she walked in. I wasn't prepared for what it meant when she walked through my clubhouse door. One look at her and I knew I'd do anything to keep her safe. For so long I've felt hatred, but this woman makes me feel something else-fire.

CoyoteWild and free, that's me.The only ones I give a damn about are part of the club. Nothing else matters. It hasn't in years. They call me Coyote because just like the animal, I prefer the dark to the light.My Prez sent me out on a fool's errand and I walked in her path. She's the kinda woman who causes a man to drop to his knees, to break all his bad habits and tame the animal within him. I wasn't prepared to have anything with her, but I was willing to allow myself one night of sadistic pleasure.I never thought I'd see her again. I figured I was out scot free. It's too bad I wasn't.My sinful woman has a bucket full of danger alongside her, and she comes to me for help. The question is, will I claim this decadent woman as mine, or do I push her away to deal with the mess she created?

Tanner I lost the one person who brought harmony into my life. She hates me and I know exactly why. If only she could see what's right in front of her face. The person who she trusted even more than me -- she's the one who put the nails in the coffin that was the end of my relationship. It's been years since it happened and I'm watching my closest friends find their forever women. Do I fight for her, for us? Will it be worth it when we've tried this two times before? I'm afraid only time will tell if I can keep the demons at bay. Things are undoubtedly about to change for us and I don't know if it's a good thing, or a bad one. The only thing I can do is take a leap of faith and see where it leads me.

I swore I'd never let another woman look into my heart, but Jade didn't need to see to know the type of man I am. Viper After being framed and ending up in prison, I was done with women. I wanted nothing to do with them. A woman was the reason I landed in jail in the first place, so I wasn't ever going to let another put me in so much risk again. My brothers say I'm callous and they tell me I need to let go of my demons, but the ghosts that haunt me aren't like the ones they've faced. I was betrayed by a woman I was going to spend the rest of my life with. They wouldn't understand, but how could they? All of their ol' ladies are awesome, loyal, and they've got the purest of hearts. Nothing in my life is different but it's alright with me. Until one day my entire world gets thrown upside down. Nerd catches a glimpse of a woman on a security camera. She's cowering behind a dumpster and blood is running down her skin. I knew then I needed to go see if she was alright and from that moment forward everything changed. The moment Jade came into my life, I started to feel again. I only hope I don't push this marvelous woman away.

The past always finds a way back.BrassEverything around the club is changing. Faster than any of us are ready for. There's a storm brewing and it's not gonna be easy to ride out.When she comes into our lives it's not easy seeing her. She's a blast from the past, but there's more to it. But what that is I've yet to figure out.One thing I do know for sure is she's here and history always has a way of repeating itself.

Alluring Allies is a crossover between two worlds connecting them.

VictoriaI was lucky enough to have escaped a world where I was viewed as nothing but a possession, a toy, a little plaything. Only, two years later I found myself owned by a man who made my heart beat from the very moment I met him. There's just one problem-- he doesn't feel the same way. I'm merely someone he can push around and give orders to.I hoped for so long he'd change, but he didn't. So, I ran. I ran to the farthest edge of the Earth to escape all the pain, but he found me. He wrapped his arms around me and vowed that things would be different between the two of us. But, will they? I haven't told him everything and I worry he and his club can't handle the demons from my past. My demons want more than just me now, but to get what they want, they'll need me dead. Nothing in this world comes without a price. I only wonder if the price we pay will be worth it.

Pain has always been my safe place. I understand hurt. I flourish in it.

That is until through the flames he rescued me.Stranded in the middle of nowhere, I'm left wondering where to go from here. My life's a mess and now it's even more so. I dare not call home, it'll only cause problems.When I keep running into my savior, I can't help but feel the burns that aren't truly there. Because of him, I'm alive, but am I really? The quote I was raised on always pops in my head when he's around and I can't help but wonder why.Could he be the reason I never understood it? Maybe he's flames that decide whether or not I live or die.
