“Baby, calm down!”

“No! I’m not done. Let me get a few more hit in and I’ll be okay for now!” she screams.

“Bloodthirsty, isn’t she?” Axel snickers from behind me. He’s got that right. I don’t think anything will calm her until she gets her hands on them.

“Baby, I promise once we get them to the basement, I’ll let you have a little fun,” I soothe her. It seems to calm her down a bit. We ask the women who were being raped if they can keep their mouths shut about the situation. They both agree, but only if those fuckers won’t be breathing by morning. Luckily, we weren’t wearing our cuts, so they’ll have a hard time connecting the murders to us. Plus, Cara said she’ll keep an eye on them. If they talk, we’ll handle it. I hope they keep their word because I can’t have them talking to the cops.

While we’re loading up Snake, Hawk, Knuckles, and their prospects, Cara walks up to the van. She squats down in front of Snake. He has his hands tied behind his back. He’s been beaten pretty badly by Red. He has duct tape over his mouth, but he still has the balls to glare at my woman.

“Snake, looks like you lived up to your road name,” Cara says, shaking her head. “But I just want to let you know I have so many torture devices I want to test out. We’re going to have so much fun tonight. When I’m done with you, you’ll be begging me to put a bullet in your brain.” She smiles at Snake and walks away.

His glare has been replaced with fear. Honestly, she scared me a little. Did she just say she has torture devices? As in more than one? I know Torch warned me his sister was not someone you wanted to piss off, but I didn’t expect my woman to be so lethal. I don’t mind it though. She’s going to be the perfect Ol’ Lady.

When we arrive to the clubhouse, I see my woman hop out of her truck and skip to the clubhouse doors. I chuckle to myself because she’s a little too excited for this.

“I told you. Bat. Shit. Crazy,” Torch says, walking past me.

“Iwant them hung up in the basement. Now!” I bellow as I walk into the clubhouse. The brothers quickly get them to the basement. “Red, go check on the kids. I know they’ve eaten but make sure they’re good so we can get this show on the road.”

He walks away without a word. As Red disappears down the hall, Cara and Sara walk into the room with two huge briefcases. “What’s this?” I ask.

“I wasn’t kidding when I told Snake I had torture devices.”

She told me she had layers and I have a feeling I’m about to peel back another one. Red returns and lets us know the kids are good. He almost got his ass eaten for coming near the kids but they're good. I'm glad Duke and Daisy are doing their jobs and protecting the kids. We all walk down to the basement. I smile when I see them hanging from the ceiling by their wrists. They have been stripped down to their boxers. The prospects look like they’re about to shit their pants. Snake, Hawk, and Knuckles are trying to look like they’re not worried. I know better. I can smell the fear.

“How long have you been working with the Outlaws, Snake?” I ask.

He doesn’t answer at first. When I make a move for the table with all our “tools” he speaks. “Since Reaper was killed!” he shouts. Axel charges forward, but Tiny stops him.

“Why did you do it?” I ask.

“Smoke was already talking about stepping down and giving you the gavel. All you could talk about was how you were going to make us legit. There was so much more money to be made. The Outlaws aren’t afraid to go get it, so I made a deal with them.”

“More money? You mean like sex trafficking? Who is in charge of the ring you all are working for?” I question him.

He doesn’t respond. He just glares at me. I’ve had enough of this shit. I’m on edge right now. Knowing a brother betrayed us to this level has me furious. I don’t waste any more time. I unleash Bear on their ass. One hour later, Bear has removed fingernails, cut off fingers, beat them, and broken bones. They still won’t give up the details. The prospects swear they know nothing.

Looking at the bloody mess Bear has created, I look at my woman. I was worried that maybe this would be too much for the girls. Nope. It isn’t. They’re both sitting on the steel table we have down here, looking bored.

“Go on, let the girls give it a go, Prez. Trust me. This is what they did when they worked for the government,” Blade says.

Eyeing Blade, I look between him and Cara. “What do you mean they did stuff like this?”

Blade’s eyes widen and he looks a bit nervous. “Cara didn’t tell you?”

I shake my head no and turn my attention to my woman. She’s looking everywhere but at me. It’s the first time I’m seeing her nervous, but something tells me it has nothing to do with what she’s seen down here. Walking over to her, I bring her into my arms and lean down to whisper in her ear. “You two okay with this?”

Cara scrunch up her brows and she looks a little shocked. I’m not understanding what she’s thinking. As soon as we’re out of here, we’re having a long talk. She nods her head at me, and I release her with a kiss to her forehead. I feel every bit of tension drain from Cara in that moment.

“Bear, take a break. Girls, you’re up.” Bear looks like he wants to protest but he relents and steps back. The girls walk over and stand in front of the men.

“Oh, look what we have here. Are you going to come over here and wrap those juicy lips around my cock, sweetheart?” Hawk says to Cara.

I’m about to go over there and slit his throat when Torch stops me. “That’s what he wants you to do, Prez. Let the girls get the information we need and then you can have your fun.” I sigh and step back. I know he’s right, but nobody speaks to my woman like that.
