“Oh,” Cicely says, biting her lip as she processes what I’ve said. “Are you Babe’s Old Lady?”

I shake my head, but then reconsider. Am I? Do I want to be? “We aren’t there in our relationship,” I explain. “We came to town as business partners, but we’ve crossed the line into something more.”

“You mentioned the San Diego Chapter is more tame because of the Old Ladies. Does this club not have Old Ladies?”

“I don’t think they do.”

“So each Chapter is different?”

I shrug. “I think so, although I’ve only been to this one and the one in San Diego. Babe wants to take me to the clubhouse in Las Vegas. Not only do they have Old Ladies, but their SOA and Enforcer are women.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. Their President is a former NBA champion, an injury ended his career. He goes by Puma now and has an Old Lady and step-daughter. I’ve heard they have several children living in the clubhouse. So you can imagine the vibe there differs from here. I guess Puma’s step-daughter, who’s five, is a real ball-buster and keeps the club members on their toes. Then there’s the new chapter in New Orleans. Babe said the President’s mother lives in the clubhouse. Heard she has a psychic ability and that most of the men in the club revere her. Can’t imagine they have Kutte Bunnies walking around naked at that clubhouse either.” I say this just as a Bunny with long blonde hair saunters by wearing nothing but her long locks. She’s placed them strategically over her nipples, but her pussy is on full display. Her labia’s pierced and she’s sporting a tattoo of an arrow on her pelvis pointing downward. After she walks by, I see a second tattoo of a downward arrow on her lower back. Charming.

Cicely glances at me, and I roll my eyes. “This club needs a few Old Ladies to come in and kick some ass,” Cicely says.

“You up for the job?” I ask, having noticed the proprietary look Chrome sent her way before he and the others disappeared into their inner sanctum.

“What?” Cicely blurts out just before she takes a sip of wine.

“Chrome,” I clarify.

She shakes her head, but can’t hide the blush spreading across her cheeks. “He’s domineering.”

“Yes. And hot.”

“He’s arrogant.”

“Yes. And hot.”

“He’s bossy. And yes, before you say it, he is hot,” she says as we both laugh. “I admit when he came barging into the pharmacy to get me, I felt safe. I looked at him and thought, no way would anyone get to me with him protecting me. Even though finding a man to protect me was never high on my bucket list. After what happened today, though, I can admit, I’m grateful to him and you.”

“I’m glad we got there in time. I know you can’t talk about patients, but can you think of anything that might help us figure out what these guys are after? You mentioned knowing Angie from your previous position.”

“You know her name?” Cicely asks in surprise.

“Before you called, Babe and I were meeting with Detective Schwartz about the two women I brought into the hospital. He gave me her name. Confirmed she was a nurse at Mountebank Medical Group. That’s where you worked?”

She shakes her head. “No, I worked there when it was Chambers Medical Group. When the owner, Dr. Vance Chambers, sold the practice, I found a new job.”

“Angie worked at Chambers and Mountebank?” I ask.

“Yes, she didn’t work for Dr. Vance. She worked more with his son, Colin.”

“Other women who worked at Mountebank have gone missing. Were they also previously employed by Chambers?” I ask Cicely, showing her the list of names Schwartz provided.

Cicely reads through the names and nods her head. “I recognize all their names. Each one once worked at Chambers Medical Group. Two worked for Vivian and the other two, including Angie, worked for Colin.”

“But you worked for Vance?”

She nods. “Is that important?”

“I don’t know. Did many people who worked for Dr. Vance stay after he sold the practice?”

“I don’t know. I don’t think so. We all liked Dr. Vance, so we knew things wouldn’t be the same without him. Most who worked for Dr. Colin or Dr. Vivian were hoping the new owners would be an improvement.”

“Can you think of any reason these men would target employees from Chambers? Because I overheard the men who hurt Angie mention Chambers.”
