If he was still the same Ben that she knew, he wouldn’t leave and she knew that he wouldn’t leave without a fight. Even when they’d been together, things weren’t always perfect and when they fought everyone heard them. Still as bad as there fights got he never laid a hand on her. Just like clockwork she heard the apartment door and the stairs creek as he came down them. She figured he’d yell at her, she was so used to Tommy.
He grabbed her wrist and spun her around and she prepared herself for whatever he was about to say. Only he did the complete opposite and he pulled her close pressing his lips to her. He kissed her hard and it was like time had been stopped for three years and it all of a sudden caught back up. Her heart raced and she knew then and there no matter what she’d told herself she’d never be over him no matter how hard she tired. She couldn’t help but moan against his lips and if he hadn’t have been holding he so tightly, she wouldn’t have been able to hold herself up.
"Never say I don't love you again Harley." he released her and held her eyes and she had to force herself to hold his eyes. "You're all I think about, every single day. You of all people should understand that I couldn't run away with you." she hated that he was right and she had to look away. "I'm not just a Blood Shadow, I'm their leader's son, just like you're your father's daughter. I have to stay." he shrugged with a sigh.
The fact that he was a Blood Shadow only meant that it was impossible for them to be together and if Jaxon were to walk in right now, he’d shoot him no questions asked. The Saints and the Blood Shadows had a long standing rivalry. It was only made worse that Benny wasn’t just a member he was that son of the leader. There was a price on his head, just like there was a price on Harley and her siblings head. The world they lived in was cruel and ruthless.
“Just give it up Ben.” She breathed. “Your right okay, you can’t change your bloodline anymore then I can change mine.” Her eyes flicked back to him. “So it would be easier for both of us…if you left now and we pretend this never happened.” She said thinking logically. “You gotta go, before my brother’s or Tommy show up.” She sighed looking away knowing that just by her mentioning Tommy’s name he’d know they were together and she didn’t want to see the pain in his eyes. “I’ve got to clean up your mess, like always.” She whispered.
Elijah through his leg over his motorcycle as he slipped on his Ray Bands, Jaydon slipped on the back of the motorcycle behind him, just like the rest of his adopted family, he had a passion for riding and he knew that was one the reason he fit in so well. The engine of his bike roared and in a second they were on the road, the wind felt incredible and Eli could argue that riding a bike was just as good as sex to a biker at least.
The ride wasn’t a long one, simply because they were surrounded by ocean. Finally he parked near The Saints Private beach, where him and Jaydon walked along the path, before they were completely closed in by rock like cliffs and hidden from the road. He sunk down in the sand next to her. He’d spent many sleepless nights on the beach just watching the waves come in and be pulled back out to sea. It was relaxing and he loved it there.
"Look, I brought one for you too Lijah." Jae said pulling him from his thoughts and he smirked taking the bottle from her. "Don't ever say I'm not thoughtful." he took popped the bottle open taking a swig from it.
“Thanks, you’re a real life saver.” He teased back. “Don’t know what I’d do without you.” He laughed taking another drink. “I got something stronger, unless you want to settle for that joint.” He said pulling a bag of coke and a pill bottle full of pills from his pocket and tossing them done next to her.
At first Elijah wasn’t too keen on the idea of giving Jaydon or any minor for the matter drugs or alcohol. Eventually however he’d just stopped trying to stop Jae, because he was doing exactly what she was doing at her age. It was the life they grew up in and it was embedded in their DNA to be bad and be attracted and addicted to the worst things for them.
“Jadi.” He breathed in a more serious tone. “You gotta stop taking off.” He said honestly. “I’m not trying to tell you what to do, because I’m not Jax. You’re going to do what you want regardless, because you’re a Delgado.” He said honestly. “But, there’s a war coming. The Bloods are looking for any excuse to piss us off, they want out territory.” He sighed. “They won’t hesitate to kill you.” He said honestly glancing to her. “I’m just asking you to be careful.” He said taking another drink from the bottle.
