He’s dead.

Holly’s safe.

I breathe easier knowing he’ll never harm her again.

One down, one more to go.

* * *

Walkinginto the room where Makenna and Melissa are with Georgina, I’m surprised to see the bitch still fighting. Demanding to be let go due to who her family is. She doesn’t realize we do not give a fuck.

Today we showed how fucking lethal we can be, and that was only a taste of what we can do. We will gut, maim, kill, and slaughter anyone who stands in our way. Together, the Italians and the Irish stand and reign as one.

Georgina’s face is covered in blood, it seeps slowly from her scalp. However the fuck Melissa’s managed it, she’s not only kept Georgina alive, but also kept the blood loss minimal, or as minimal as it can be. The flap of her scalp is either still intact or balancing against her head. Either way, her skull remains covered. For now, at least.

“Finally,” Melissa breathes, a blinding smile on her face as she sees her husband. “Can we end this now?”

My lips twitch. “Have at it. Who am I to stop your fun?”

Makenna’s laugh fills the room, “I knew I liked you.”

I stand against the wall, Danny to my right and Denis to my left. We gave the girls our promise that they’d get to deal with Georgina, I have no problem with that. I released my blood lust on Ortega. The girls, however, haven’t been given the chance to unleash theirs fully yet.

“Now, before we get to the good bit,” Melissa begins, her voice loud for the rest of us to hear.

As this is Dante and Makenna’s house, only a select few are allowed in to watch. Family, obviously, as well as the right-hand men of the family. The men want to see this bitch die, they want to make sure she’s not able to do this shit again.

“Why did your uncle allow this?” She questions and we all wait to see how the fucking bitch reacts.

Dante doesn’t believe Carter knew how deranged his niece is, I on the other hand believe that he must know, he has to see how fucked up she is.

“What?” Georgina gasps. “No, he didn’t.”

“Then how did you get the Ortega men to do your bidding. I mean, we all know your uncle was trying to build an alliance with them.”

Ice burns through me. How did we not know? Of course, Melissa would find that out, she’s a hacker, a fucking good one. Seems she’s been doing a lot of digging.

“I slept with Jose, it was easy to get him on my side. Blow him a few times, and then he was putty in my hands.”

I shake my head in disgust. She’s a fucking bitch.

“You had to know once we found out what had happened that there would be war.” Makenna snarls, anger radiating from her.

She licks her lips. “No, I thought you’d blame the Russians, especially after killing their man at my uncle’s restaurant.”

Sneaky fucking cunt.

“It didn’t work out for you, did it?” Melissa taunts her. “You’ve lost everything. The men you had wrapped around your finger, your hair, your looks, and you’ll lose your life. But none of them are what hurts the most. It’s losing Romero that kills you, isn’t it?”

Georgina’s eyes flash with anger and hatred as she glares at me. “I would have given you everything,” she tells me, and I roll my eyes, damn, she’s a fucking broken record. “I loved you and you used me.”

Motherfucker. “Right, I’m going to set this straight. I did not fucking use you. I fucked you twice, the rest of the time, you were on your knees with my cock down your throat. That is not love. Hell, I didn’t even look at you while you were doing it. You’re a spoilt bitch and you deserve everything you’re getting.”

She screams in frustration and the scream turns to a gargle as Melissa takes the flap to her scalp off and Makenna slits her throat.

The life slowly fades from her eyes and I smile. Good fucking riddance.

“Let’s go see Holly,” Makenna announces.
