Unfortunately, he was wrong and his actions wound Tabby, breaking her heart. It's Tabby who then teaches Shy a lesson about casting judgment and Shy Cage learns what it feels like to be invisible. But when tragedy strikes and Tabby's heart is broken again, Shy does what he can in the background to help. Trying to forget her heartbreak, Tabby finds herself in danger. To keep it secret from her biker family, the Chaos Motorcycle Club, she calls Shy to rescue her. But when she lets him back in, she gets much more than she bargained for.
Now for those of you who don’t know, the Chaos series a spin-off from the Dream man series and although you can read this as a stand-alone, I strongly recommend you read the Dream man series first. For the following reasons:
- You’ll get the cameo characters who make an appearance in Own the Wind.
- You’ll understand a little bit of the history between Shy and Tabby.
- And lastly because there’s a certain KA reading order, which any true KA addict will adhere to.
That said, the story line of Own the Wind was different in the sense that it was unique from KA’s other works. Lemme start from the beginning, Tabby is the daughter of Kane ‘Tack’ Allen, president of the Chaos MC and therefore is strictly off limits to all members. She is spirited, sweet, speaks her mind and knows how to stand up for herself especially when dealing with badass bikers. Tabby has the best father a girl could ask for, and the stepmoms to end all stepmoms, but alas while growing up Tabby was stuck with a mother who was, to put it simply, a bitch. This leads to Tabby acting out and making some not so good decisions, during Tabby’s latest drama it’s Parker ‘Shy’ Cage to the rescue. Sufficed to say, despite Shy’s best intentions to ‘straighten’ Tabby out, it does not go well and results in Tabby distancing herself from the club and Shy. A valuable lesson for all, we sometimes underestimate the power of our words because sometimes they cut deep, and that hurt can last a while. And so time passes and Tabby and Shy go their own way, until tragedy strikes and Shy steps in to put back the pieces of Tabby’s shattered heart. Commence friendship, laughter, drama, happiness and a love like no other.
“You need a safe place to just forget shit and escape, I’ll give it to you. Tonight. Tomorrow. Next week. Next month. That safe place is me, Tabby.”
“I never dreamed any fuckin' dream," he whispered, and the smile faded from her face as tears filled her eyes.
She understood him.
"Shy-"
"Didn't dream it, saw it, waited my time, and then you gave it to me.”
“Shy, she’s yours… Control your woman,” High demanded. “Get her ass out.”
My eyes went to Shy to see him looking at High, and he wasn’t looking pissed.
He was looking reflective.
Then he said, “Tab and I don’t play it that way. You wanna order your old lady around, do what you do, not for me to say. I asked her to go, she didn’t go. Not gonna make her. But you try, you’ll deal with me.”
“You’d give up your brothers for a woman?” Brick asked incredulously and Shy’s eyes moved to him.
“Abso-fucking-lutely.”
“Seriously?” Boz asked.
“Not any woman,” Shy nodded my way then invited "now ask again.”
“May feel like you're falling', Tabby, but remember, I'm at the bottom ready to catch you.”
