“This is probably the worst tantrum we’ve ever had,” Sara says in awe.

“Tantrum?! You call this a fuckin’ tantrum, you crazy bitch?!” That’s Brick for sure.

“Well, yeah. Have you ever seen a toddler have a tantrum? They tear a room to shreds, but we kind of…” Cara trails off.

“You decapitate people!” Brick shouts.

“Yeah.” Cara’s voice lacks any emotion right now. I can only imagine what they’ve done by the tone of her voice.

“You bitches are fuckin’ crazy.”

“Been told that my whole life. Gonna have to come up with something better than that, Bricky.” I laugh at Cara’s statement. She really doesn’t care about being called crazy.

I open the door and ease down the steps. Once I lay my eyes on the girls, I freeze. They look like they stepped fresh out of that scene fromCarrie. They’re covered in blood and Brick is hog-tied, lying on the ground. Three of Brick’s men have been slaughtered. That’s the only word for it.

“What. The. Fuck?” Thor shouts.

The girls turn around and smile.Fuckin’ smile. They seem to be unharmed. I rush forward and bring Cara into my arms. I don’t give a damn that she’s covered in blood. I need to hold my woman. “I’m fine, honey. I promise. They didn’t hurt me at all. Well, except that fucker. He slapped me.” She points to the man who has been decapitated.

“Cara. My best bud. I mean this with all the love in the world, but you fuckin’ scare me.” Thor’s voice is a whisper, and he does look a little frightened by the scene in front of us.

Cara laughs and shakes her head. “What have I told you all from the very beginning?”

“I believe your exact words were ‘respect me and I’ll do the same, but come for me and I will annihilate you and will not think twice about it,’” Capone says, looking damn proud of the girls right now.

“Just for that, I’m going to make you carb free lunches for a week, Capone.” Cara smiles and high fives Capone. I shake my head at the madness that is my woman.

“You see, I saved you one, babe? But make sure whatever you do, you make it hurt. He was actually bragging about raping young girls.” She is vibrating with anger right now.

All the guys growl at her revelation. “Yeah. I know, right? That’s why I cut off this guy’s dick,” Sara says, pointing at the man whose dick has been removed.

“We’re all going to get a piece. This fucker was behind every attack, every fallen member. Every fuckin’ bad thing that has happened for over a decade. Pops, you first.”

That’s how the next thirty minutes go. We all take a piece of Brick. He paid for all the shit he did. By the time we were finished with him, he actually let out a sigh of relief when he saw me take out my gun. I didn’t hesitate to put a bullet in his head.

“How do you want us to take care of this, Prez?” Tiny asks.

“We’re going to burn it down. By the time the fire department gets out here, there’ll be nothing left.”

“Ok. Let’s go. I have three little hellions inside of me demanding food. I want pizza and tacos.”

The room goes silent. Cara doesn’t even realize she just announced her pregnancy. “You’re pregnant?” Thor shouts.

“Yeah. We were going to tell everybody tonight, but these assholes took us.” She walks over to Thor with a huge smile. I know what she’s about to tell him. She already asked me if it was okay.

“Thor, will you be their godfather?” she whispers. Thor eyes shine with tears. He shakes his head rapidly. Fuck. I didn’t think he would reject her. I make a move to console her when he speaks. “No! No! You will not make me cry. I’m a big badass biker, and we donotcry.”

Cara laughs and smiles at him. “Well, will you?”

“You bet your ass I will. Come here!” He grabs her and hugs her, spinning around.

“Thor! Stop! You’re going to make me throw up!” He puts her down immediately.

“Dammit, Cara! This is the second time I’ve been covered in blood because of you!”

“And your ass was almost covered in throw up as well!” She shouts back. She glares at Thor while rubbing her stomach.

All the guys howl in laughter at the two of them. After the laughter dies down, Cara turns to me. “Can you dial Bobby for me?”
