[Colson Brothers 08] • Free to Love

As with any club, Exiles has skeletons it the closet. More old than new, but skeletons none the same. The biggest being the year it was discovered the old Sargent under the old President was a serial killer. That was bad enough, but Machete was also grooming his daughter to do the same as she grew up. Mykela was adopted by Machete and his wife the day Cord Colson found her tiny body in a dumpster while he and his other ten-year-old buddies were scrounging for something to do, sell, or blow up. Boys will be boys.

Colson’s will be Colson’s. He stuck by Mykela’s side as best he could as they grew up. As hard as he tried he couldn’t save her from an evil he wasn’t aware existed for too long to make things right. The damage had been done to poor Mykela.

Lars Colson was a prospect when al this went down. He was ordered by his father to prove his loyalty by taking care of the problem as low key as possible. There was a plan. A flawless plan, save for one tiny detail. Exiles MC had a mole. A rat. An undercover FBI agent lurking in the shadows disguised as a full-fledged member. Lars Colson went to prison for the murder of a serial killer.

Eight years later Lars walks out of prison and back into a new world. Cell phones are different. Hookers are different. After being robbed by a hooker with a pile of debt due to a shoe fetish he’s forced to stow away in a run down RV in hopes of scaring himself a ride back to the club for help.

Angela and her trusty sidekick Thor the German Shepard won’t be so easily threatened. She’s armed and refuses to be run over no matter how big the blue-eyed ex-con is. She does however understand his predicament, as she was once locked up for a reason not so unlike his own.

Mykela is now a top surgeon for an ER in downtown Phoenix. Her marriage to Cord was never dissolved, and because she refuses to let any other man touch her she’s living with a troubled blonde named Eve. Eve is tired of being neglected more and more by Mykela as the surgeon takes on more and more work seemingly to avoid a growing emotional attachment.

Eve goes to the club to get even. To get attention. All she wanted was for Mykela to pay attention to her again. She had no idea the depths and layers of secrets about to unfold around her as Cord is summoned to retrieve his violent wife. Mykela’s old violent ways are simmering just under the surface, so when she broke Goat’s nose for kissing her Eve, Slider called Cord to come get his wife out of his state. You don’t break the VP’s nose and get away with it.

This is a story of secrets unfolding and freedoms bought. Freedoms that by bringing together the right people at the right time can set the club up with an alliance they desperately need.
