Their Secret Obsession (A Reverse Harem) by Pippa Moon novel Chapter 255

"YOU are being just as reckless; you sneak out the house at all hours, go to these fights, and yeah, you are winning now, but what about when someone bigger, meaner and a fuck ton uglier walks in and knocks your proud ass to the floor. Who is installing cameras to catch me wank into the toothpaste, then? Huh?"

"That is gross." He moaned, his tone filled with disapproval, but the reaction that tainted his tone was not lost on me.

"My point is... Who is going to be here to protect her and watch those pups?" I countered, bringing the subject back before he could change it.

"You seem to live in her ass enough to protect them for us all." Adam grumbled; my lips parted in a smirk because the fucker was just jealous, and that was his issue, not mine.

"We have had enough loss, and I know the majority of that loss has been yours, but it's about time we had some life." I replied, ignoring his snarky ass. "What I am trying to say, Adam, is that she needs us all." I stated with a huff into the quiet of the car.

Moments of silence passed and I knew he was processing my words; Adam was an overthinking, a worrier and as much as he tries to claim he is in charge, sometimes he needs Liam and I to take control and reign his ass in.

"I need the outlet." He sighed as we whizzed through the town.

"Then take up knitting; it helps me." I offered, eyeing him out of the corner of my eye.

"Honestly, bro... I am not sure what to think or do." I admitted I am just glad she has us now to keep her safe." I added with a half smile that did not quite reach my eyes.

"Chase.." Adam replied; the way my name rolled off his tongue reminded me of our dad, stern and disappointed. Sighing, I arched a brow and quickly looked at him as we approached the bar and Liam's car came into view,

"I am not the only one hiding things.. and when YOU are ready, you need to tell me." He nodded, his eyes filled with concern and love that I rarely saw from him.

"Noted." I nodded as I pulled up behind Liam on the pavement and prepared myself for whatever chaos lay inside that bar.
