“We can start with making ourselves a fresh coffee before we hit the inbox.”
She grins. “I love it when a plan comes together.”
CHAPTER
FIFTEEN
Brew
Erica may think she can run, but she can’t hide. Eating her muffins only reminds me she made these with her hands… Then I think about where her hands were last night; rubbing my dick.
The lip that came out of that woman? Normally, I wouldn’t let that slide, but Erica clearly has no clue how far gone I am when it comes to her. I’ve had a taste of paradise, and I want more of it. Instead of doing just that, I’m sitting here listening to my brothers and Sawyer while we make a plan of attack.
“So he’s still with Big Papa?” Haze palms the back of his head, referring to Gareth, who I filled everyone in on a few minutes ago.
“For now,” I grumble. “I don’t trust him, but he may be of use to us.”
“You dragged me all the way over here,” Logan says. “Could at least offer me a whiskey.”
“It’s ten o’clock in the mornin’.” I shake my head. “You’ve been livin’ above that bar too long.”
“The bigger issue is what we’re gonna do with him,” Haze goes on. “Movin’ him to the warehouse seems like the most obvious choice, then we can really question him like we want to.”
“Or we may have a problem on our hands,” Sawyer says, sitting in the meeting room chair. He drops a stack of papers on the desk in front of him. “All of what he said is legit, including his stint with Delta Force. He’s also related to someone we know; his brother is Bane Adler.”
“What the fuck?” I bark.
Logan rubs his beard. “This can’t be good.”
“Jesus,” Haze says, then glances at me. “How much did you fuck him up?”
“Didn’t,” I say. “Only because I’d just gotten back from Texas and if I ripped his teeth out, I wouldn’t get much out of him.”
“Fair point,” Sawyer says. “Suppose we should pay him a visit.”
“Need to call Bane first,” Logan puts in. “Fuck him up too much, then we’ll really have a problem.”
We may have an alliance with the Ridgehaven Hellions, Mississippi, but that doesn’t mean Bane will just be okay with us fucking up his brother.
Reluctantly, I agree. “Fine, but he’s not exempt just because he’s Bane’s brother. Not sure how well his story adds up.”
“Rock is diggin’ up the security footage from the station,” says Sawyer. “Then I guess we’ll see for ourselves if what he said is true.”
“Probably a good idea to get the facts before we cut his face off.” Logan shrugs.
“What the fuck is Bane Adler’s brother doin’ snoopin’ around here?” Haze asks. “He’s been at the fightin’ ring for weeks, you’d think if he was that hard up for dough, he’d go bang down his brother’s door.”
“Maybe they don’t get along,” I say. “Not every family is like the fuckin’ Brady Bunch.”
Logan grins. “You mean like us?”
I flip him the bird. “If he knows shit about The Grid, we need to act quickly. I got as much as I could, but not the location of where he says these scouts live.”
“Raise of hands say we call Bane, then with or without his permission we go and fuck up asshole Gareth,” Haze sighs, like he’d prefer to be doing anything but.
We all raise our hands.
I don’t want to be doing any of this. I mean, I want to find out where these asshole Grid members are hiding, don’t get me wrong, but Erica is playing on replay in my head.
