Finally, Pike speaks. "My brother gets his intel from one of the guards at the jail. I don't fuckin' know which one. Besides," Pike looks at Jake with a smile and blood dripping from his mouth, "Rex was released two days ago. It turns out the authorities don't need that bitch of his. The charges against my brother were dropped due to insufficient evidence."
"Fuck," I hiss. Pike begins to cackle, and it's grating on my nerves. The more he speaks, the more I want to end his worthless life.
"You assholes are so fucked. My brother will not stop until he gets what he wants, and for whatever reason, he wants that deaf bitch. Don't know why he'd want that whore." The moment those words leave his mouth, I fly across the room and tackle Pike to the floor where I begin to beat his worthless ass. After many blows to his face and body, I rein my temper in and back off. Killing this pussy is not my place. Pike heaves in a few deep breaths, then coughs out two teeth onto the basement floor.
"Rex is coming for her. He won't stop until he gets back what's his," Pike wheezes.
Standing over the pathetic excuse for a man, I spit, "he'll never touch Luna again. I look forward to the day I send your brother straight to hell, right beside you." With nothing left to say, I give Jake a look, then walk out of the basement with my brothers Fender and Kiwi following behind. By the time I clear the top of the stairs, a single gunshot rings out. Justice has been served — Kings style.

Early the following morning,the entire Kings family stands outside the clubhouse saying their goodbyes. Luna says a private goodbye to Sofia while Jake and his men along with myself and my brothers share a round of handshakes. "It was damn good to see ya, brother," Jake says. "Fucked up circumstances, but it is what it is."
"Right back at ya, man," I return mounting my bike. "I want y'all to bring your asses down to New Orleans real soon, you hear. Show y'all how us Cajuns like to party."
"I'll make it happen soon, brother. You have my word," Jake promises.
I turn my attention from one of my oldest friends to Luna, who is hugging Sofia. When she breaks away, she catches my eye. "You ready, baby?" I asked, then hold out my hand for her to take. Without breaking eye contact, Luna walks up to my bike, takes my hand, and climbs on behind me.
Fucking ruined.
Raising my hand, I give Jake one final salute over my shoulder as my brothers and I ride through the gate. Turning my head to the side so Luna can see my face, I bring my hand up, touch all five fingers to the corner of my mouth, then drag them up to the edge of my eye, I sign the wordhome.Luna gives me a sweet smile.
Yeah. My girl is coming home with me.
