Satan's Devils MC

Sophie

All I did was try to help my best friend escape her abusive boyfriend. And for that I ended up in a wheelchair. Life’s no longer worth living. No man will want me now. But my nightmare is only beginning. Ethan wants me as leverage to get his woman back.

I end up under the protection of the Satan’s Devils, an outlaw motorcycle club in...

Drummer

As President of the Satan’s Devils MC I can have every and any woman I choose, and do. That’s how I got my name. But I’m happy with the variety, I know I’d never find a woman my equal to be my old lady.

Then I meet her, on the road to my compound, standing beside a goddamn Vincent Black Shadow, one of the most iconic bikes of all time....

Slick

Like the rest of my brothers, I’m devastated when disaster hits the Satan’s Devils MC. Shocked and angry, there couldn’t be a worse time to be contacted by the woman I’d briefly made my old lady, only for her to run the moment things got too tough. She’d left me with no explanation, and in my book that was enough to cut her out for good....

Dart
I laughed when I first saw her auditioning at our strip club. She’s polar opposite to the type of women that attract me.

Obeying the hands off rules the club has for the strippers is going to be easy. But when she needs a friend I find I’m there offering my support.

But I’m there when she needs someone to lean on, and slowly we build a...

Heart

Crystal, my wife, old lady and soulmate is dead. There’s no way to survive, nothing for me to live for. All I want to do is to join her.

I don’t want to take my own life, but if someone does it for me, so much the better.

She shouldn’t have died, she shouldn’t have left me. My love for her fuelling such an uncontrollable rage it won’t be long...

Peg

I’ve never been one to use the sweet butts like my brothers. I’ve waited for someone who’s special, the woman who’ll ride with me through life.

I’ve sat back and watched as one by one my brothers are being pulled away from their whoring ways, finding their old ladies and leaving their bachelor life behind with no regrets.

That’s all I’ve ever...

Rock

Rock I’ve committed the ultimate crime. To repay my gambling debts, I’ve stolen from my MC. Now, I’m out in bad standing.
Cast adrift from all men I called Brother, I approach a rival MC. They let me join on the basis I share all the information about my previous club. In other words, they want me to help them take out the Satan’s Devils....

Shunned.

Despised.

Disowned by my own blood -- my family.

I’ve found a new home, a new place in the world, and now I must keep my secret. They can’t find out who I once was--who I still am. I can’t change, but I can disguise myself to avoid being a social pariah.

I WILL hide in plain sight.

They WON’T be suspicious.

I CAN mask my dark mind and sordid...

I rescued Mariana. I wanted her.

I couldn’t have her. Mariana doesn’t need a man like me in her life. A man who rides with an MC.

When she comes up against her most powerful enemy, Mariana needs someone to help. Why do I feel this draw that it should be me?

Why do I care?

Why do I feel this overriding need to save her? To sacrifice everything....

I was nineteen when I became Jayden’s knight in shining armour, her Paladin. At only fourteen, she developed a teenage crush on me, the man who rescued her.

I gave her time to grow, waiting for her feelings to mature. As years, when I was forbidden to touch her, passed, I never doubted she was mine. I just wasn’t allowed to show it.

Circumstances...

Blade

Being the enforcer for the Satan’s Devils MC is a tough job, but someone’s got to do it.

I can’t allow myself to be distracted, can never let the softer side of me out. Having suppressed it so long, I no longer believe I have one.

Women are there for one purpose only. Once I’ve relieved my itch, I’ll move on. Can’t afford to let them get...

Demon

Before Nathan died, Violet had been the annoying child who’d followed us around everywhere. As a teenager, she’d developed an annoying crush on me.

My promise to my best friend had been to watch over his little sister, a debt I considered paid when she was grown and settled out of state.

Ten years later she’s back in my town, this time with...

When I left everything behind to go nomad, I didn’t expect to run into trouble before I stepped foot in the clubhouse I was aiming for.

I didn’t expect to save a woman, not just once but multiple times.

I didn’t expect to pit myself against the US Marshals or another MC.

I’d just extracted myself from one relationship, I didn’t want another.

...

Heart Mended was originally published in the anthology Escaping the Shadows. To read in order it comes between Blade’s Edge and Truck Stopped. Please be warned, this is a very short story,

Three years ago Heart’s wife, Crystal, died, taking his heart and soul to the grave with her. He thought he couldn’t live without her, he certainly would...

Truck

Badly burned and injured, I’ve lost everything. I can’t fight fires anymore, or even ride my bike.

I brood, alone, even have thoughts of ending my life.

That was when I hit the lowest point and the start of wanting to fight back.

I needed someone beside me. I didn’t expect to find a friend in Allie.

Was she like the rest of the sweet butts...

Melissa

I wasn’t the type of woman a biker would go for. I’m a homemaker type, not adventurous or bold.

I fought it hard, but he dragged me into his world, and I found I liked it. Loved the family vibe, how everyone would gather around to protect what was theirs.

Until, he vanished. Disappeared off the face of the earth. He’d pulled me in, now he’s...

Ink

The almost-as-tall as me girl with the blue hair intrigued me. As is my normal practice, I’d give her one night, but that’s all. Except, I found, it wasn’t enough. I should have kept to my own rules, but I didn’t. I went back.

It’s not forever, I’m not that kind of man. She’s not for me, she’s a citizen and not someone to be pulled into our...

Vanna

While serving as a Marine, my husband survived when an explosion took out the transport he was travelling in. He lived but suffered a traumatic brain injury which wiped his memory.

What do you do when your husband doesn’t recognise you or his young son? What if living together is doing neither of you any favours? After two years of trying...

Lost

All my life, it seems, I’ve made mistakes. Once, I lost everything. Failure seems to follow me around.

I didn’t spot what a snake Snake was—he had planned a mutiny right under my nose. Yeah, he did well when he appointed me as his VP. I followed him blindly, never suspecting a thing.

Now Snake is dead and I’m the prez. I still spend my days...

What do you do when your hopes and dreams literally come crashing down around you? One split second and something that wasn’t your fault, stops you from participating in your chosen sport just when you’re nearing the top?

Another rider’s misjudgement, and my trial bike competition days were over.

I was angry; I admit it. I love my MC brothers,...

Grumbler

I’ve given this club more years of my life than I care to remember, most recently giving them my all as sergeant-at-arms. My life is settled and just the way I like it. I’m too old to change now.

I’ve never had a woman to call my own, nor fathered kids, and never felt I missed...

I’m a man haunted by my mistakes of the past. I’d achieved my dream, lost it, then found my place with the Satan’s Devils MC. Of course, being me, I blew that as well. Worse, I walked out on my brothers.

Is this who I want to be? Of course it’s not, who sets out to be a failure?

When I get an opportunity to become a new man, I grab it with both...

Niran

Unable to make it himself, Grumbler had made a simple request that I accompany his old lady to her prenatal appointment.
If I hadn’t, I would never have come across her, a woman broken in only ways a woman could break. Someone who desperately needed a friend in her corner.

Why did that have to be me? Believe me, I’d asked that of myself, but...

Niran
Saffie’s past was darker than I’d ever expected, and now I’m embroiled in the thick of it. I’m fully prepared to forfeit my life if it means I save hers, but I have no idea how I’m going to achieve that objective. I do all that I can, lying to convince them I’m one of their kind despite having the wrong skin colour.

Trouble is, it’s Saffie...

I’d left my hometown seeking adventure.

I hadn’t much ambition, my main aim being to find somewhere warmer where I could ride my motorcycle all year around. I saw my future as most men do, finding a steady job, eventually getting married and spitting out a couple of kids.

Fate seemed to comply, throwing into my path my soul mate only a few...

Oh, the decisions we make when we’re young which with age we come to regret. If I could have a do-over, I’d never have walked away. But I did. It was done, and my actions couldn’t be taken back.

I was only twenty, and I believed I had time to find my special one. Then life threw me a curve ball that altered all my plans. The result being I could...

Petty
I’m not the nicest person in the world, I’ve cultivated that world view. I’m a man’s man, full of testosterone and with the balls to prove it.

I’ve spent years kidding everyone as to who I am, hiding the parts of me I’m ashamed of.

I didn’t expect my nemesis to raise her head and step back into my life with the intention of destroying...
