6 [5]

Walking through the store with Mia constantly looking for threats, constantly feeling on edge walking through the aisle expecting to be boxed in by some color gang trying to send a message.

"Relax, you don't have to worry about getting jumped around every corner." Mia said softly while taking my hand in her own, making me flinch slightly before calming down and squeezing her hand back gently.

"Thanks." I said softly while feeling a bit embarrassed about my own paranoia while I took over pushing the cart for Mia who didn't release my hand as she grabbed things and set them in the cart.

'This feels nice.' Mia thought to herself as she and Vincent walked around the store together like a couple holding hands.

Turning a corner in the store spotting the homeless woman from the show who was staring at me like I didn't belong.

"The father will pay for his sins, as the son already has…but whom wears the mask?" the homeless one muttered mysteriously, the same woman the show's creator hinted about being a higher power.

"Vincent, do you know her? She's staring at us." Mia asked me with both curiosity and concern in her voice.

"She looks familiar…Mia go ahead and grab some stuff, I'm going to go talk to her for a minute." I told Mia as she reluctantly released my hand.

"Okay…just be careful, something about her feels…I don't know how to explain it." Mia replied to me with what almost sounded like jealousy.

"I will…I don't think she's inherently dangerous." I told Mia as I walked away from Mia towards the woman.

"Hey…I don't know if you're the manifestation of Anarchy or a guardian angel…but I think you've been looking out for Jax and will for a long time. I want to thank you for that." I told her and was a little thrown when she smiled at me and behind her wings of shadow and darkness spread outwards and I saw an image of a reaper holding a scythe.

"I look out for all of my sons and daughters, even you little one." The woman said as she cupped my cheek smiled at me and leaned in to kiss my cheek, then I heard the sounds of wings flapping and the sound of a heavy folder hitting the floor, my mouth dropping open in shock as the woman and her cart disappeared.

'Well, I guess that answers that question…she's definitely something that most wouldn't expect to fit into this world…damn you Sutter.' I thought to myself feeling even more justified that I selected the healing factor.

"Where did she go?" Mia asked me as she pushed the cart up beside me.

"She has people to guide on their paths." I replied to Mia with a smile as I picked up the large manila envelope.

"What do you mean?" Mia asked me curiously.

"You'll understand someday." I found myself replying to Mia cheesily while tucking the envelope into the inner pocket of my cut.

"Stop trying to act mysterious." Mia said jokingly as she took my hand and pulled me along with her to the meat section.

"So what do you want for a BBQ, burgers, ribs or chicken?" Mia asked me and I smirked at her.

"How about everything?" I replied back to her while wiggling my eyebrows.

"Haha, I don't know if I brought enough with me to buy all of that." Mia giggled before replying to me with a smile.

"I'll cover it." I replied to her as I put my free hand on her hip and pulled her against my chest.

"Oh yeah and who says you can cover it?" Mia asked with a bit of mock attitude while arching an eyebrow with a little smirk playing on her lips.

"I do." I replied with a smirk of my own while sliding my hand from her hip while starting to slide to her ass.

"You can cover the cost of the food for now, but I'll be the one to decide when you cover me, or if I cover you." Mia whispered while pressing herself against me, giving me a chaste kiss before pulling away from me and grabbing my hand that was just centimeters from being all over that perfect ass.

"Mmm, I'd love to have you cover me…while I detail you." I smirked liking this game we were playing that Mia instigated, Mia blushed slightly before rolling her eyes.

"Letty's right, you and Dom are cut from the same cloth." Mia said to me before planting another kiss against my lips.

"You've been talking about me?" I asked with a real smile and an intrigued look.

"Haa, one of Letty's cousins is a Mayan…I wanted to know what that life is like, I learned some things." Mia replied to me calmly, though her eyes and body language carried a much different set of emotions than what she was trying to project.

"And?" I asked her to find out where she was going with this.

"I don't know everything, but I know how you guys treat women…I'm not some crow eater, club bitch or some old lady." Mia said and though, I could tell she was definitely into me she was feeling put off by what she learned about the MC outlaw life.

"Haa, Mia I won't lie to you…I've slept with a lot of women. Maybe it's because I have mommy issues. My mom split when I was a kid and left me with an alcoholic, drug addicted whore mongering bastard of a father…maybe it's because the only maternal figure in my life taught me to be free like a wild mustang." I replied to Mia who started to cry before hugging me tightly.

"The Club life is pretty much the only thing I know Mia, and club life is…" I started to continue before shutting up and hugging Mia back.

~~ — — — — — — — — — — — — ~~

I couldn't help but smile as Mia kept marking her territory when any of the hussies from around the block showed interest in me.

"You know if you're going to keep chasing off all these women, you're gonna have to start taking responsibility for a man's needs." I teased Mia as I pulled her towards me, setting my hands on her hips swaying back and forth in a dance as Mia wrapped her arms around the back of my neck.

"Oh yeah, well if you don't stop shooting death threats at any guy that even looks at me you're going to have to take up some responsibilities too, but I ain't gonna share you, if you with me it's ride or die." Mia spoke to me softly and even over the loud music I could hear her crystal clear.

"I can't promise you I ain't gonna fuck things up Mia, because I'm a fuck up…when everything goes good, goes great that's when I drop the ball and fuck shit up…if someone tells me how good I'm doing at something I unconsciously start fucking up, I want you to know that before you commit to somethin." I told her honestly which made Mia give me a serious look.

"You think I don't already know that? If I wanted someone perfect I'd be looking for the rest of my life, I want a man whose life or death with me, I want a man who I know would kill someone for fucking with…or if I killed someone would everything in his power to protect me I know that's who you are." Mia said to me and somehow we went from taking things slow to kissing in front of the whole block.
