“What is your twisted mind working on now?” Linc asked as he joined the conversation.

“Simple,” Priest said. “I’ll pull his fucking rat teeth out. Then we set something up far from here. Make it look like he was attacked and burned. Or attacked and eaten by a fucking bear or something. I don’t know. Let Chief Dick get an anonymous tip or something. Someone hiking finds the teeth. There’s your proof.They can compare records and that’s that. They have what’s left of the fucking rat. While we keep the body, still alive.”

“Pull his teeth out,” Linc whispered.

“What a sick fucking thing to do,” Cyrus said. He grabbed Priest’s left shoulder and squeezed really hard. “It’s good to have you back, Priest.”

Priest gave a nod.

Linc grinned.“I’ll go find the dirtiest, most rust covered pliers I possibly can.”

Chapter Ten

Toxic

Eden sent a text to Liv and Sophia, letting them know that she was safe, home, and that she was tired and needed to think. She knew sending a text like that would garner attention. In some way, Eden wanted the attention. Finding herself alone in her apartment once again did not sit well with her. Yet the images of the motorcycle club clubhouse felt as though they would haunt her for life.

She had already thrown up, which she diagnosed as a rush of adrenaline. Or thecome downfrom the intense adrenaline high she had been handling all night and day from the second those gates shut behind her and she was trapped with the members ofSins of Fire Real Anarchy West.

An actual group of bikers! More than a group. They’re… they are something. Real. Scary. Powerful. Yet somehow important.

When Eden felt her stomach aching once more she walked to a window, with the intentions of opening it to get some fresh air. What she didn’t expect to see were the two bikers who escorted her home still sitting there.

Two massive motorcycles taking up one and a half parking spots.

She knew their names.

Drix and Dolph.

Drix stood tall, lean, a white T-shirt under his leather cut, arms with tattoos, looking like a dream. Dolph had the appearance of a bodybuilder. A massive chunk of muscle with a scowl on his face and black sunglasses.

“Really?” Eden whispered. “Did Priest tell them to stay?”

For a moment she thought maybe the gesture from Priest was sweet. Then she thought about the sight of seeing Priest fucking that woman. That random biker whore. And then the fact that Eden herself had been only seconds away from offering her mouth to Priest…

Heat flooded her body.

A wild thought attacked her.

What if I let Drix come up here and fuck me the way Priest fucked that woman?

At that exact moment, Drix looked up at Eden’s window. She yelped and jumped back, almost tripping.

“Fuck!” Eden cried out.

She hugged herself, ran to her bedroom and climbed into bed, then pulled the covers over her head to hide from the world. Her eyes shut and she didn’t care when they’d open again.

If there were bikers outside her apartment there to protect her, at least she could get some decent sleep.

Eden managed to keep the biker protection a secret for a few days. Drix and Dolph were everywhere she was. Watching her apartment. Following her anywhere she went.

Even when Eden worked an extra shift, they followed her to the hospital and spent the entire time there. At one pointsecurity had to get involved because Dolph used the men’s restroom and messed up one of the toilets. Not to mention the toxic smell that worked its way into the lobby. It was so strong that the receptionists wondered if there was some kind of gas leak in the building.

When security tried to kick Dolph out, Drix faked stomach pains, begging for help, saying he felt like his appendix was rupturing. That got security off their backs.

The story cycled throughout the entire hospital, right up to Eden, when a gossipy coworker named Willow told Eden the story. As soon as she finished talking, Eden got into Willow’s face and told her to keep her fucking mouth shut and go help someone. Willow stormed off, looking ready to cry.

“Wow, where did that come from?”
