I lift my chin in defiance as I glare at the fucker who’s still trying to crawl his way out of my dungeon. I clutch the pipe in my hands as I control the explosion within my body. There’s a pain shooting through my jaw from how tense it is. Anyone who touches my girl is going to fucking die. I’ll tear them limb from fucking limb before they have the chance of even looking at her. “Dominic,” Marco says and gestures toward the biker who’s managed to hoist himself up on one step.

I walk up to him, swing the pipe over my head and slam it down on the back of his. Blood sprays out, but my rage takes over and I keep delivering blow after blow on his head until it’s nothing but mush.

I step back and drop the pipe. “I’m done with him.” I look to Marco. “Get Frank down here and clean this shit up.” I take the stairs two at a time, head up to my office to call Adrian.

My hands are covered in blood. My clothes have been sprayed with the biker’s blood too. I dial Adrian and put it on speaker. “What?”

“We have a problem.”

“What is it?”

“I had one of the road captains of the Fallen in my dungeon.”

“And?” He moans and I roll my eyes. “Suck my dick, slut.”

“Call me when you’re finished.” I hang up and shake my head.

Adrian returns my call instantly. “Don’t fucking hang up on me again, Dominic,” he warns.

“You’re getting your dick sucked. This needs attention, not you blowing your fucking load into some woman’s mouth.”

“They’re fucking temporary until I get Eliza back. You asked me to not take her, and I’m doing you the favor by not.” I run my bloody hand through my hair in frustration. “So until I get that bitch back, I’ll have my dick sucked by whoever the fuck I want!” Adrian’s losing it. “Come here, get your ass up,” he says to someone. “Stay still.” I then hear the familiar sound of him snorting. “Right, what do you want?”

“The road captain said someone from our ranks is going after my boss.”

“Where is he now?” Marco appears at my door and I hold a finger up to him. “Yeah, deeper. That’s it.”

My annoyance is growing by the second. “Not here.”

“He was probably saying whatever he wanted to save his ass.”

Adrian isn’t taking this shit seriously. The drugs have impeded his thoughts. “You’re probably right.” It’s no use speaking with him when he’s in his drug-addled state.

“If you have something concrete, then call me, if not, I’ve got shit to do.”

Adrian’s descent into hell is rapid, and if he keeps snorting that shit, then he’s going to end up useless to the organization. Which also means, Ruben will exile him, or worse.

I hang up and lay my phone down on the desk. “What is it?” Marco asks.

“He’s...” I tap my temple a few times as I consider what my next steps are. “Fucked.”

“What do you want to do?”

I don’t want to undermine Adrian, but I think in this case, I’m going to have to go to Ruben. “Put another four men on Rosa and Eliza.” He nods and crosses his arms in front of his chair as he leans against the door jamb. “Frank?”

“He’s taking care of our biker problem.”

“Okay.” I look down at my phone and stare at it. Adrian’s drug problem has made him sloppy. There’s a mole within the Sacco family organization and Adrian has no interest in finding out who it is. “Fucking Adrian,” I groan.

“What’s your brother done now?”

I look at him, but decide it’s best I keep this to myself for now. I need to speak to Ruben and let him know everything that’s going on. “I’m taking a shower.”

Marco moves out of my way as I leave my office and head toward my bedroom.

Frank navigates the streets toward Ruben’s house as I sit in the back and read the report the men have sent me on my Rosa’s movements. She’s been to work and then returned to the motel. She ordered pizza for her and Eliza, and they stayed in for the rest of the night. The car she thought was tailing her, was indeed from the Fallen MC, but they disappeared the moment my men came on the scene.

My men are on the lookout if that car returns, and they know what they have to do if it does. I want whoever is inside in my dungeon, so I can talk to them. I’m surprised my Rosa hasn’t called me, but I’m trying to give her space although I have six of my men there at any one time.
