RYKER
Only when I’m snuggled up with my bros.
TORIN
…
GHOST
Glad you made it home alive. I was expecting Dimitri to hunt you down and snipe you right off your bike.
ME
Fuck Dimitri. Give me an hour. Be quiet when you come in. Wren’s asleep.
TORIN
Roger that.
GHOST
Alright.
RYKER
Tell my favourite sister I miss her.
GHOST
Sigh.
TORIN
For fuck's sake.
ME
First order of business: castrate Ryker.
I don’t wait for a response, I shut off the screen and glance over at Wren. Her breathing is deep and even, telling me she’s fast asleep.
I slip from the bed, and head for the kitchen, Hunter quietly following behind me. I shut the bedroom door gently as soon as Hunter is through, then head to the front door and lock it.
As exhausted as I am, I have too much on my fucking mind to sleep.
Before my brothers show up, I want to pay my real estate agent a ridiculous amount of money to secure a new property before the sun rises.
The sooner I make Wren safe, the less likely I am to start slaughtering every stranger in the province as a deranged form of preventive measures to ensure her safety.
Now that Dimitri knows Wren exists, things need to move quickly. I need a safer place for her to be while I hunt Dimitri down like the worthless roach he is.
We already had plans to wipe him and the Bratva out, but he went and changed the game.
He put his filthy hands on her, and for that, he’s going to fucking suffer.
