Worth The Risk

Skylar…When I was seventeen, I fell in love. It was incredible, earth shattering, but most of all, it was heartbreaking. He walked away without an explanation. Without saying goodbye.He was simply gone.But five years later, I walk into a room and he's there. He had been only hours away from me all these years. I often imagined how a reunion between us would be. Would I run into his arms, kiss him and tell him I still love him?No, I slugged him.Jake…I knew the day would come when I'd have to face Skylar. I made a decision years ago that I've always questioned. Always wondered if it was the right choice. I was torn between the woman lying in my bed and the best friend who was giving me the opportunity for a better life.Skylar deserved better than me. I chose the Royal Bastards MC.Now, she's here, having been brought to the club for protection. Our reunion didn't go as I imagined it would. There was no sweet embrace, no words even exchanged. She marched right up to me and punched me in the face.I knew right then and there, I never stopped loving her. Thing is, the Royal Bastards have rules. I live and die by them. If I break them, I'm out. I'll lose my patch and lose the family I have. Is Skylar worth the risk?
