We knew this house was laced with security and just waiting to explode if we stepped a foot inside. While Micah, Deke, and I disabled as much from our end as we could, we had a little helper for this job.

Speaking of… My cell rang, and I smirked at the display then answered, “Yeah.”

“Hey, big guy, He’s out.” a woman’s voice said in a bored tone.

“He give you any trouble?”

“Hell no. You know how I look. Once I had his cock in my mouth, I injected him in his leg, and he never saw me or felt it. Now, when are you getting here, so I can get the hell out of this place?”

Yes, she was ready to be done with this job. Couldn’t blame her. She did us a solid and would be compensated for her time.

“We’ll be there in ten. Hang out, and if he even appears to be waking up, you give him a little more. And stun him.” The last part was just for fun. It gave her incentive to stay in hopes of getting to shock the shit out of him.

“It’d be my pleasure. His cock tasted like toe rot.”

A laugh burst from me. “I’m not even gonna ask how you know what toe rot tastes like. Thanks, Sandy. We’ll owe ya.”

“Oh yeah you will. I want twenties. They’re easier to spend.” This time there was a bit of humor in her tone. At least she was having some fun with this task.

“You got it. See ya in a few.” I hung up the phone and announced to the cab, “He’s out. Sandy did her job.”

“Toe rot?” Ryker asked.

“Said his cock tasted like it,” I replied on another chuckle. It was something I’d never heard come from a woman before. Or anyone for that matter.

“Holy shit! That’s the worst comparison I’ve ever heard!” Ryker burst out laughing along with the other guys in the SUV. Ax grabbed his phone and started texting, no doubt telling the other car we were a go.

“And how do you know Sandy?” Liam asked, and I reached over and squeezed his knee. My affection to him had grown more these past two weeks. Touching him, even in front of my brothers, was an everyday thing. It was me touching him because I wanted to. I liked to. It took him by surprise the first time, but we were growing on one another. And I was an affectionate guy. After our breakthrough at the safe house, my inhibitions with him were quickly falling away. Our past was invading my memories more and more.

Not saying we’d fucked or had anything without Nyx there besides the soft touches. Things were complicated, but not that it made any sense whatsoever. Probably not. He had a way of messing with my thoughts. His mere presence had my cock hardening. So yeah. It would come. When, hell if I knew. But this was Liam. My Liam. And now Nyx’s Liam too.

“Works at X, the strip club. She’s a very good ‘friend’ of the club,” I told him, knowing what he was thinking, but it wasn’t that way. She was an employee. Nothing else. Sure, I’d fucked a lot of women at X, but this one, nope.

“A friend of yours?” he asked, not giving a shit if it sounded jealous one bit which made me chuckle. Made me feel good that he had those tendencies showing me he was on the same path as me.

“A friend of the club.”

“Uh-huh.”

I gave him another squeeze before pulling away, and he gave me a small smile. We’d come a long way in the past two weeks. And I fully admitted I like the path we were on. We both loved Nyx, but we also deeply cared about each other. It was growing by the day.

“Five out,” Deke said from the driver’s seat, and my blood began pumping. Adrenaline was such a fucking high.

“Let’s do this shit,” Ryker loudly called out.

“Damn, dude. How the fuck are we gonna go in quiet with that shit?” Ax chided.

“That’s why I’m doin’ it in here,” he replied, not giving two shits about his level of sound.

I looked over to see Liam’s reaction, and his smile warmed me. Fucking loved that he was getting along with all the brothers. The more time he spent around them, the more he was fitting in.

Cruz was waiting to patch him in as a prospect. He never gave the why, but I had a feeling it would happen after this mission. Cruz always put the club first no matter what. He always watched and waited.

Plus normally, a prospect would have to hang around the club for a while to prove themselves, but since I vouched for him and told Cruz Liam was mine, he was going to shorten the timeline a lot for him.

Personally, I was ready for it.

Ready for all this shit to be done so we could get back to life. A happy one that the three of us could build together.
