I narrow my eyes to Grayson. He has to get a handle on Jax.
“Luca?” I ask.
“I’m in. For Keller, Mom and Rosa.” He deserves his revenge just as much as I do. I want him by my side for this.
“Good. Any improvements with Keller?” I know Luca has spent nearly every free moment at the hospital.
“They’re going to try to wake him up from his induced coma tomorrow. We won’t know more until that.” He stretches back and runs his fingers through his hair.
“So, after we finish this, your break is over?” He looks like the time away was good for him.
“It’s looking that way.” He bites back a grin.
Zara turns in my lap, and her warm hands frame my face, demanding my attention. “You deserve your revenge.”
I suck in a breath.
“We,” I answer. This is no longer just about me. “We will never be able to get back what we’ve lost. But we will burn the fucking world down to get ours, dolcezza. That, I promise you.”
Fire starts to emerge in her eyes, and a smile creeps up on her lips; the first one I’ve seen in days.
I’ve missed it.
“Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s make them pay. I want to watch them begging for their lives. I want them to feel even just an ounce of our pain.”
My chest fills with pride. This woman is truly everything.
“Fuck, I love you,” I mumble against her mouth.
The sound of Luca's cough to my right forces me to reluctantly break away from Zara.
“Won’t taking out the commissioner of the NYPD raise questions?” he asks.
“Not if we clean it up good enough. Me and Enzo can work on that. They’ll replace him in no time, especially if information was to be leaked on my dad. They’ll cover up that he ever existed,” Zara replies as she wriggles in my lap.
“Now this I’d like to see,” I say, tightening my hold around her.
I tap her ass, and she stands.
“Well, are you guys coming?” she asks.
“Come on, she might be able to teach you a thing or two.” I step behind her, wrapping my arms around her.
“You’ve got this baby,” I whisper in her ear.
“With you by my side, Frankie. I’ve got everything.”
“Rise and shine.” Grayson bangs against the door, and Alex sits up on his single mattress in the corner.
His eyes fill with fear as we approach.
“Z-Zara?” he croaks out.
“Get up, Alex. Take a seat.” She gestures to the metal chair and Luca pulls another one across the room.
Alex scrambles out of bed, his face swollen and purple. Jax obviously took some of his anger out on Alex’s face.
He sits down, and Zara rests her hands on the back of her chair as Luca ties up Alex.
