Royal Bastards Code
PROTECT: The club and your brothers come before anything else and must be protected at all costs. CLUB is FAMILY.
RESPECT: Earn it & Give it. Respect club law. Respect the patch. Respect your brothers. Disrespect a member and there will be hell to pay.
HONOR: Being patched in is an honor, not a right. Your colors are sacred, not to be left alone, and NEVER let them touch the ground.
OLE’ LADIES: Never disrespect a member’s or brother’s Ole’Lady. PERIOD.
CHURCH is MANDATORY.
LOYALTY: Takes precedence overall, including well-being.
HONESTY: Never LIE, CHEAT, or STEAL from another member or the club.
TERRITORY: You are to respect your brother’s property and follow their Chapter’s club rules.
TRUST: Years to earn it...seconds to lose it.
NEVER RIDE OFF: Brothers do not abandon their family.
Dedication
First and foremost, I’d like to thank all you amazing readers for loving my Royal MC series enough to want more. I hope you’ve enjoyed all the stories you’ve read, and I can’t wait for you to fall in love with Lux and her guy T-Rex. There are some major things that happen in this story and there’s a little flashback, but I think I did a good job of keep it all vague enough y’all won’t be going “What the eff, Elle”.
To my amazing team of Betas, y’all rock sooo effing hard. Debbie Ramos, Maureen Ames, and Mary Hullinger, and Ann Ivey for joining the gang of ladies, along with the entire Boonies Crew, thank you ladies for helping with this story, and for all that you do to make my books amazing. Thank you to my amazing editor Tracy Roelle for always putting in those long hours for “that client” LOL. And a huge thanks to you readers...you are simply the best ever. FLOVE y’all soo hard. And last but definitely not least, a huge shoutout to Lucian Bane/Lou Gray for this amazing cover and Happy reading, y’all.
Y’all have no clue how much I appreciate all who have read my stories. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul. Love y’all soo hard.
XOXO,
Elle Boon

Chapter One
Lux watched the man who captured her interest far more than he should walk out the back door, her body tingling in foreign places that it hadn’t in a long time. Hell, she was sure she’d become numb regarding anything sexual in nature.
The phone ringing pulled her from her lustful thoughts, thank the lord. Of course, she had stopped believing in God, the night... Lux pumped the fucking brakes on memories that were best left buried deep within her mind and jerked the phone from the base on the desk in front of her. “Yo, Twisted Ink.”
Silence greeted her, making her pull the handheld back from her to stare at it to see if she hadn’t hit the answer button. Yep, the little screen was glowing, and she could see the caller ID said unknown. Fucking great. “Listen, we ain’t buying whatever the fuck you’re selling.”
“I... I’m looking for Lux McDaniels?” a sweet voice asked.
Sheot. Lux screwed her eyes shut, wondering who the fuck was calling. She went through a mental check list of who the hell she’d pissed off, knowing damn good and well the list could be long. All her bills were paid, so that wasn’t it. She hadn’t fucked anyone in like forever, which meant it wasn’t somebody’s wife or girlfriend. She mentally checked that off the laundry list of who the fuck would come calling to want to try and kick her ass. Keyword being try.
