“What did she say?” I force out as I try to tamper my anger.

“She said she will see us where her life ended and Knox’s began.”

“She also tasked me with taking Karl to her.” I dart my gaze to the side to see Nano, Brett and William standing there. Knox’s guys lift their guns ready to take them out.

“Don’t shoot them, if you do you will just piss her off!” I say.

“I am not handing this cocksucker over, if she wants him she can come to me and get him,” Knox replies.

“It doesn’t work like that, the boss gave an order and we follow it… no exceptions,” William speaks for the first time and I have to admit hearing how loyal he is to Wave has my respect for him growing.

“She doesn’t command me?—”

Taylan cuts Knox off before he can continue to scream like a bitch. “She has three weeks to meet us back at the bridge or we will come after her.” The three men bristle at his threat but say nothing.

“What the fuck do you think you are doing?” Knox demands as he comes to stand in front of Taylan and me, breathing hard. I can see he’s pissed the fuck off.

“Giving your sister the bastard that stole her fucking life from her, he is hers to kill not yours! Pull your fucking head out of your ass, Knoxville, and realize that Waverly isn’t a child anymore. She is a woman and has an army of her own. She doesn’t need us or you.” Knox stumbles back a step, shaking his head, trying to deny what Tay says but he can’t because deep down inside he knows as well as I do that we all failed her. Taylan motions for Marco to hand Karl over to Nano. Everyone ignores his cries of pain as he is dragged toward their waiting car. Trey tries to follow after them but Brett turns and holds him at gunpoint.

“Our orders were to return with Karl only, you are not accompanying us, Trey.”

“Fuck you, Brett, she needs me and she needs Xander even if she won’t admit it,” he volleys back.

“Why the fuck does Wave need him and you?” Knox growls, Trey spins around to face us but his moment of distraction costs him. Brett jumps into the car and they burn rubber out of here.

“Fuck! We need to go after them!” Trey shouts as he jogs back to me.

I shake my head and flinch in pain. “You and I both know she will be long gone, our only choice is to listen to what she says and wait until she comes to us.” Trevante stares at me like I have lost my fucking mind and maybe I have, but I also know pushing her doesn’t work. She showed us how she felt without uttering a single word, she came for me and she saved Trey. She cares about us, she just refuses to admit that to herself.

“One of you cunts better start explaining to me what the fuck is going on between you and my sister, now!” Trey and I both look at Knox, who has his fists clenched at his sides, nostrils flaring with each deep breath he takes. He looks like a bull ready to charge.

“We saw the beauty in her darkness and she saw the darkness in ours, we are in love with your sister.”

3…2…1

I still know Knox better than he knows himself, three seconds is all it took for Trey’s words to sink in, then Knox is flying off the handle and beating the shit out of him. The dumbass should have kept his mouth shut and let me deal with him but no, fucking Romeo thinks his stupid ass poetic lines will make everyone fall for him. That shit may have worked on his sister but Knox is nothing like Waverly. He has a heart and it beats for his wife and sons, Wave has one but it beats for nothing and no one right now.

I’m going to thaw that frozen block of ice around her heart and force her to see me… to choose me and Trey.

Doxy

“Dede?” I turn away from the sight of William fucking Ron and face Kimber who scrunches her face in disgust. I get her and Anna not being able to stomach the sight of William, Brett, and Calvin raping Karl and the others that I brought here but I live for it. I relish watching the three guys taking turns on all of them. It brings me great joy to see them cry or scream out so I can punish them with my whip like they used to do to me.

“What is it?” Kimber nibbles on her bottom lip looking uneasy, which has me narrowing my eyes. In the past two weeks since we captured these fuckers and moved off the grid I have gotten to know Kimber and Anna a lot better and I would even go as far as to say we are… frenemies of sorts.

“Xander and Trey are trying to track us again.” I growl out my annoyance as I brush past her and head out of the shack, leaving the three guys to have their fun while I deal with this shit. I cross the yard and enter the barn where we have set up our operation HQ. When we raided another club, we found a woman in the midst that is amazing with computers and is a dark web hacker.

“Josie, what have you got?” I ask as I come to a halt beside the woman as she types furiously.

“She’s in the middle of sending a mass shutdown virus so she can block them from hacking into the CCTV through Ireland so we can move freely.” My brows raise in surprise at Anna’s response, it appears Josie is worth her weight in gold.

“Boo ya, bitches!” Josie shouts, shocking the fuck out of me and earning a glare from everyone in the barn. She looks around at all of us and ducks her head sheepishly. “My bad,” she mutters.

“Where are they?” I clip out.

She flicks her gaze to me and beams, Anna says she has some type of hero complex about me and it grates on my fucking nerves. I am no one’s hero.

“They thought they were slick and rerouted their IP addresses to show them being in Dublin but I hacked through their firewalls and rerouted the servers?—”
