To Kristin… for being an awesome friend and keeping me from going under more times than you know. Once upon a time, I was Soap, happy-go-lucky member of the Demented Sons MC in Iowa. Beneath that façade, I had a secret I couldn’t afford to get out. All of that ended when the woman I loved died in my arms. Driven by revenge, I searched for the party responsible for her death. When all I found were dead ends, I went to the Royal Bastards MC—known for uncovering the evil of the world and exterminating it. My stipulation—I wanted to be the one to kill whoever had stolen from me. They refused. So, I did what I had to do. I joined them. Slaughtering a human trafficker should be easy. What I wanted was within my grasp. Except, when I needed to pull the trigger, I hesitated. Because revenge is a dish best served cold, but a fiery blonde sparked an unexpected flame within me. Plans changed, I took her prisoner, and sh*t hit the fan. If I wanted to keep her safe, I needed to embrace my secret and pray I could control the savage beast it unleashed. For those of you who have been waiting for Soap’s story after the ending of Snow’s book, here he is! Soap will be moving up to a position in the newly re-established Dallas, TX chapter of the RBMC. Full of anger and vengeance with a burning need for revenge, Soap is coming soon! Age eighteen “I’ll see you tomorrow night,” Renee said before she kissed me, then climbed off the back of my bike. As she walked up to her front door, she shot a coy smirk over her shoulder. I couldn’t have kept the grin off my face if I tried. “I’ll pick you up at eight,” I called after her. She gave me a wave and went inside. My old ‘78 XLH-1000 Sportster rumbled through the dark streets as I headed home. The muggy Minnesota night had ended with a hot and heavy make out session with Renee and her agreeing to go out with me. Not that I ever had trouble getting laid, they usually only wanted me for that. So, yeah, it made me feel good that a white-trash guy like myself had bagged the prettiest cheerleader on the squad. She’d be leaving in the fall, but it would be fun while it lasted. Fuck all those pricks I graduated with that looked down their nose at me. No, I wasn’t loaded like they were, and I wouldn’t be going to some Ivy League college, but I didn’t care. My uncle Dice hooked me up with a job at his bike repair shop and I was in love. Dice wasn’t my blood uncle, but he was good friends with my mom’s oldest brother and had been like family for as long as I could remember. The
