Sex
The knock came at nearly two in the morning.
My eyes flew open, looking straight up at the raised ceiling. Darrian had turned onto her side sometime after we passed out, placing her ass against my thigh.
“Z!” Maliki harshly whispered from the other side of the door.
Sitting up, I tried not to jostle Rin too much as I got out of bed.
“One sec,” I told h
im, grabbing a pair of sweats from my dresser and pulling them on.
“What’s up?” I asked after unlocking my door and slipping into the hall.
He ran a hand through his hair, stress, and aggravation rolling off his shoulders.
“Malik?” I questioned.
“Gwen took off. We got into it, and I went to sleep. Woke up and she’s gone, man. Demon went after her. Marcus went after him. I just got word where she was going.”
He stopped pacing and stared at me as if I were supposed to know what the fuck he was talking about.
“And?” I prodded when he didn’t get the hint that I wasn’t a goddamn telepath.
“District 9,” he seethed.
I couldn’t have heard that correctly. That fucking bitch knew better.
The place wasn’t safe to be in for long periods. The smoke that came from underground was toxic.
“Why would she go there?”
“Your guess is as good as mine.”
“Gizmo followed her until he knew where she was heading, then came back.”
“How long ago?” I asked him.
“An hour, maybe two.”
I ran a hand over my mouth, nodding. “Get some shit together and grab Trix. Have her get the prospect and Tobias. We need to get Demon and Marcus.”
I purposely didn’t mention Gwen. She would get down on her knees and beg to come back before I let her return to my home. I stepped back into my room, shutting the door behind me, and flipping on the light.
“What’s going on?” Darrian groggily asked, slowly sitting up and rubbing her eyes.
“I have to head out. I’ll be back in a few hours,” I responded, swapping my sweats for drawers and denim.
“Can I come?”
Pausing, I looked up from where I’d been digging for a shirt.
“If you’re ass is ready to go in five.”
I grabbed a shirt and pulled my chiseled weapons box from the back of my drawer.
I told Grizz if I wasn’t back in four hours help Meg keep shit together until I returned with Demon.
