Rain: Book 3 of Playing for Keeps
Chapter 31: Back at the Club

I drove into the compound and got out of my car. I looked over and saw Beast look at me. I turned my head and walked into the club and went to my room. I walked into my bedroom and locked the door. I took my tennis shoes off and took a shower before putting on clean underwear, shorts, bra, shirt, and sandals. I walked out of my room and over to the Valkyrie table and sat down. Instead of my usual coffee, I asked for a beer. I then stood up and walked out the back door and over to the swing where I sat down and lit a joint.

An hour later I saw Beast walking toward me. As he sat down I stood up and walked into the bar. Beast just walked out back Rage said. So fucking what I said before I sat down at the Valkyrie table. She sure is pissed I said looking at Rain. She doesn't like being told no at times. She was in a very controlling relationship remember Rage? Donna is not going to let that happen again. I know Rain. We looked up and saw Beast walk in the back door. I watched as Donna grabbed another beer and walked down the hallway. I knew she was not going to my room. She was going to hers. I sat down at the VIP table and he said "I fucked up".

Yes, you did. She used to be in a relationship that was controlling remember? She is never going to let that happen again. Star looked at me and said Beast. Jesus H Christ. We were only going to go to the gym to exercise we were not going to fight. But you had to tell her no. So, she did it anyway and by herself. I sat in my room watching TV and drinking. No way will I let another man tell me what I can and cannot do. The claiming is off. Not going to happen. At least not until Beast lets me go to the gym.

I finished my beer and walked back to the bar and got another one before walking out the door and lighting a cigarette. I smoked it and put it out in the ashtray. I walked back in and heard Cookie yell supper. I watched as everyone went to the kitchen. I grabbed another beer and walked back to my bedroom shutting and locking the door. I will go out and get me something to eat later if I get hungry.

I looked at the empty seat next to me. Where is Donna everyone asked? Rain said she is in her room. When she gets like this she does not eat. Her food is her coffee and beer. And she withdraws from everyone. It was Friday so I decided to go out to CJ's dancing I changed into black jeans, a t-shirt, and boots before grabbing my money and driver's license. I put them in my back jean pocket. I then grabbed four joints and put them in my cigarette pack before walking out of my door and to the bar. I walked out the front door and got into my car and drove downtown.
