“You might see me and this place as dangerous. As criminal. Maybe you’re right. But I’m also the same guy who took your hand when you needed help, and I learned that from the people in that clubhouse, Blue. I learned how to love like the best’a them ’cause my brothers and their families taught me what it means to be a man who protects his kin, who fights to the death for what he feels is right, and who won’t change for anyone. Even pretty girls with lake water eyes he could drown in.”
