I would make sure no other put a hand on him.

He would live the rest of his life happy and free from any harm.

And possibly, if I had anything to do with it, by my side.

Standing, I flung the knife to the floor. I stepped over her and made my way to the burning pit the Diamond MC men brought in for this situation. I picked up the searing metal rod and walked back over to the whimpering woman on the floor.

Ignoring her wide eyes, her imploring, I pressed the cross into her back. I winced as her skin sizzled and burned. It was not because of what I did. No, instead, it was the thought of West’s agony when they had done this to him.

I clenched my jaw and held it longer, forcing it deeper into her flesh.

She had done this. She had hurt West. For that, she would get more than what she gave him.

Straightening, I pulled the cross from her back. Her skin stuck to it.

“Are you done?” Wreck asked.

I shifted my gaze to his. “She will feel more?”

He nodded. “She will. They won’t hold back.”

“I am done,” I told him and made my way to the door. It had been a deal I struck with the Diamond MC. I got to deliver everything back to her exactly as she’d done to West, and in return, once I was done, they got to have their own fill of revenge.

Opening the door, Kylo, Saint, Country, and Death stepped through. They greeted me with a lift of their chin, but it was Kylo who patted me on the shoulder as he passed.

I heard a clap as I stepped through the doorway, and then someone said, “Wake her up and let’s get this started.”

Chapter Fourteen

Adrik

Dimitri drove me back to my home. I did not want to show at West’s covered in his mother’s blood.

“How are the businesses?” I asked, scrolling through emails since I had already washed my hands at what Wreck had called the compound.

“Antony has everything under control.”

I nodded. “Thank you for finding him.” I knew I had said it before, when Antony had come on as a manager for the casinos, but he had been worth every penny since he started two months ago.

“You know I did it so you would have a break.”

“Da, at least I am now.”

Dimitri snorted. “Time off is not sitting there checking your emails. Besides, you have only been gone a few days. I will see if it lasts.”

I grunted. Everything in me itched to get back to work. I knew I wouldn’t until West was on his feet.

“Is there anything I need to know about?” I asked.

“Nothing. Honestly, you just worry about… your love.”
