Hunter opened fired as more of the men came, spilling around the cars to attack with a kind of savage ferocity I’d never seen before. Knives whipped through the air, spinning end over end. One flew right past me, hitting someone standing behind me.
I wrenched my gaze over my shoulder, to see one of London’s buddies with the hilt of the blade sticking out of his shoulder. He looked down, snarled, then wrenched the thing free. I swung back, firing shot after shot, and moved with Hunter as he lunged to grab Helene, protecting her with his body and racing for cover.
A flash of neon blond hair tore across my vision as Carven, with Colt close behind him, lunged and slammed into three of the fuckers. At the height of the impact, I saw what was happening…it was Sons against Sons once more.
Hale had sent them.
He’d sent them to kill us.
I unleashed a roar as I strode toward them, emptying the clip before I collided with one. Blows on blows as my head snapped sideways. I couldn’t keep up, couldn’t even protect myself. Agony roared in my side and it was only my sheer self-preservation instinct that allowed me to lash out fast enough to grasp the wrist which held the blade as the savage glare from a Son met mine.
“Going to kill you,” He grunted. “Right before we take what’s ours.”
He meant Helene…
He meant all of them.
Helene.
Vivienne.
Ryth…
And the baby.
The goddamn baby!
BOOM!
The Son’s head exploded in front of me, blood and gray matter splattering my face. I turned and found Hunter starting to lower his sniper rifle, but then he swung around and kept firing. But a sickening feeling washed through me. There was more to this…more to this outright attack.
I spun around, finding Colt and his brother deep in the fray and caught sight of Finley Salvatore, Lazarus Rossi, and Tobias Banks all fighting alongside each other. If they were out here…that only meant one thing.
The women were inside.
I spun around. “ROSSI! He’s after the kid!” I screamed and lunged.
I don’t know if he heard me. I didn’t have time to see, just raced toward the open door of the house, praying to God I wasn’t too late.
Screams greeted me, guttural howls of agony and piercing, shrill, panicked sounds. The kind that chilled me to the bone. I forced myself to move, running for that secured room.
“NO!” A male roared up ahead.
I turned the corner and came face to face with terror as a Son stood over one of the guards, stabbing him in the chest over and over with savage, bloody blows. The poor bastard had never had a chance. Instantly, I raised my gun and took aim as screams came from inside the room, slipping through the barely open door. It was obvious the guard had been trying to close it when he was attacked. Now the poor bastard was dead.
The Son lunged through the open door. I heard the heavy thud of steps right behind me before the bellow came. “KAT! KAAATTT!”
“Laz!” She screamed back as I charged through the door and into the room.
There were two of them. One had Kat separated from the others, advancing as she shielded her daughter, who was shrieking in terror, clinging to her mother’s leg in sheer panic. But the other one had Anna around her neck, strangling her.
“Motherfucker!” Laz roared behind me.
My mind screamed to head for Kat and their child, knowing they were the real reason the Sons were here, but the gurgling, choking sounds from Anna called me. She kicked, her feel flailing in the air as she slowly lifted the gun in her hand.
The Son clenched harder as she dangled in mid-air. Her eyes bulged and her face burned bright red. She had no strength left to stop him as he reached out with one hand and tore the gun from her grasp.
“HEY!” I roared as I charged across the room, slamming into both of them and knocking her free.
