I'm not a good guy.

I've never claimed to be.

Even among 1%ers, there's more darkness in me than most.

The Tampa Chapter of Defiance are outcasts because of the way I run my club.

But being MC President means something. You follow a code, adhere to the rules.

Taking her wasn't part of the plan.

I was supposed to transport her, that's all.

Though something about this feisty woman caught my attention.

Made me want to help her.

The problem is, she fights me every step of the way.

But I am keeping a secret from her.

One that could either make her fall for me… or despise me forever.
