The Biker’s Mafia Princess (Angel and Savage)

Book 3 Chapter 4.



Harmony POV.

I do a happy dance as I leave the conference room with my momma behind me.

"You did it, baby. We are so proud of you." Momma hugs me and we both squeal, jumping up and down together.

My family are my biggest supporters and are always pushing Harry and me to always do our best.

"Miss Harmony, miss Harmony." I pull away from my momma and we both look down, seeing Melody.

"Hi honey, are you ok?" I ask her as I move to look at her and she is beautiful. I can't believe her mom just gave her away. I could never do something like that. But from what momma said, it was the right decision for her. She would have been in so much danger because of her mom.

"Yup, I had fun at story time with my daddy today. It was fun." She jumps and down full of energy and I smile at her and momma chuckles.

"I'm so glad you had a fun time. Did you make new friends?" I ask her, and she smiles and nods her head. God, she is so adorable. I just want to scoop her up and cuddle her all day.

“Uh-huh. I made some new friends. I never had friends before." She looks away sadly and I look up at my momma and I can see she knows how that feels.

"Oh sweetheart, I will be your friend and I know you will have so many friends soon. They will just love you, Melody." I say and have the urge to hug her, so I do. At first she stiffens, then wraps her tiny arms around the back of my neck and I pick her up and cradle her to my chest. My heart breaks for her.

The doors to the conference room open, and I turn and see Maverick watching me. His face softens seeing me holding his daughter. He smiles softly and walks towards us.

"I'm sorry, she looked like ..."

"There is no need to explain. Other than me, she isn't very forthcoming with new people. She trusts you and feels comfortable with you." I look at him and blink. Well, that should be a cause for concern. Melody only met me this morning and shouldn't be this comfortable with someone new.

Then again, thinking about where she came from, it is no wonder. She is an innocent child and her mom should have protected her from anything and anyone who could hurt her, and she didn't. It makes me so mad.

If I ever meet this Felicity woman, I will hurt her. I am not a violent person by

nature, but I can fight when needed. Harry can agree with that. We used to

wrestle and play fight growing up. We never took it too far. Momma had trained us growing up.

Dads had a fit when they found me and Harry shooting at the target range at the back of the clubhouse when I was thirteen.

Harry's logic was learning to defend yourself and firing a gun is like a condom. Yeah, I looked at him funny too. He explained that it is better to have one and not need it than to need it and not have it. So we learnt together.

I try to be the reasonable one. Talk first like adults rather than resorting to fisty cuffs. Whereas Harry, dad's and momma will shoot first and ask questions later.

"Daddy, can I stay with miss Harmony for a while longer, please?" Melody says, twisting in my hold and I look at Maverick not knowing what to do.

All the kids in the clubhouse love me and I am always the designated babysitter. I don't mind it. I love the little rascals.

"It's no problem. I was going to help Michelle wrangle the boys, anyway." I say, showing him it is no big deal.

"You listen to miss Harmony, ok? We will be heading home soon. You, munchkin, have school tomorrow." He says and her face lights up and I gasp, making an even bigger deal out of it.

"School, oh wow. You will love it. Come on, tell me all about it while we find aunty Michelle." I say and walk away carrying Melody. She is so light. I can hear my momma chuckle as she tells Maverick how I love kids. She isn't wrong. One day I want to have a whole football team.noveldrama

"My teacher seems nice and the kids, well, they seem nice too." Melody tells me and I smile as we walk outside to the play area pop-pop had installed and it is maintained by the club. There are Michelle and her babies and some of the other club kids and their moms.

"HARMONY!" they scream and come running like I'm the pied piper of the little devils.

"Hi kids, you all know Melody?" I ask them and some nod their heads, some watch Melody curiously.

"Well, she is my new friend and her daddy is a new member here. So how about you show Melody what you are playing?" I say and the kids all cheer and I place Melody down and she is smiling so big as she runs and plays.

"You're a natural at this Harm." I look at Michelle and smile at her.

"Kids are great. They are so easy to get along with. They are the future of this club." I say to her and she chuckles at me, nodding her head.

"Yeah, well, if the fate of this club depends on my boys. Then, girl, we are screwed." She says, laughing as we both watch as the boys are messing around.

"So you now have your bar? Let me know if you need any help with it. I really need a job." She says, and I smile at her.

"Oh, you are going to leave these with Hound?" I ask her and she looks at me and bursts out laughing.

"He is trying to get me out of the way. He loves his kids. It's me that gets worried. Hell, I found Danny this morning teaching those two how to shave. I swear to god I nearly had a heart attack. Both kids were covered, and I mean covered in shaving cream using plastic razors without the blades. I could have killed him." She says and I roar with laughter, picturing the tiny tearaways covered head to toe in shaving cream.

I could use that in my book. "And he wants another baby?" I say, fighting the need to laugh again.

"Don't remind me. Told him until he can have a baby there is no more." She says, and I smile at her. Give it a year and she will be pregnant again. I feel eyes on me, and I slowly turn to look over my shoulder and see Maverick standing watching us. I smile at him.

Those silver grey eyes of his do something to me. Is love at first sight real? "Go and speak to him." Michelle says in my ear and I jump a little. "What?" I say to her, not taking my eyes from Mavericks. He straightens up and walks towards me. I feel comfortable in his presence. Which is strange, I am usually cautious with new people. You know stranger, danger.

"Never mind." She says and turns back to watch the kids.

"Miss Harmony, could I talk to you please?" Gosh, how is he so polite?

"Please, just call me Harmony. Sure, Maverick, you can talk to me." I say, giving one last look at the kids and they are all playing nicely together and Melody is chasing one of the little girls as they climb the steps to the slide.

"Thank you. Melody is very relaxed here and around you. She doesn't trust easily, especially after what happened to her. She is still getting used to being around other people. I was wondering if you would like to erm, I mean if you're not busy." Oh lord, is he blushing?

"What I'm trying to say is would you like to maybe have dinner with us one night? I mean, it's not a big deal if you don't want to ..."

"Maverick, I would like that very much. Besides, you and Melody could use a friend." I say, offering him a small smile, and he relaxes and nods his head.

"I'm not that good at this," he says, chuckling as he rubs the back of his neck. "Nah, you're doing just fine." I say with a smile on my lips and he nods his head. "Can I get your number?" He asks and god could he get any cuter? Who would have thought this god of a man was nervous? Then again, looks can be deceiving.

He holds out his phone and I take it, adding my details to it and hand it back to him.

"Ok, I will be in touch. See you around Harmony. It was nice meeting you today and thank you." I look at him, confused.

"Thank me for what?"

"For not judging, for being nice to us." He smiles and walks towards the play area to collect Melody. I just stare at him and he seems lonely. Another thing that hurts me for some unknown reason.

Could this be love at first sight? Who knows? We will have to see how this goes.
