Ghost shrugs.“Drink and fuck and make bad decisions for a while, and then he’ll sort it out and get over it.”

I don’t think you get over the kind of change that comes with losing your twin to a woman, but I don’t bother saying that.Not to mention Isla is now Natalia’s mother, so it’s like they are a perfect family while Bones is on the outside.

And they don’t know who the actual father is, so Natalia could very well be Bones’ daughter.

What a complicated situation.

“You know you don’t have to worry about me.I’d never betray you, Ghost.Your brothers are becoming my brothers, and I care for them in that way.”

His arms come around me, his fingers rubbing in soothing circles.“I know.I don’t like seeing any of them touch you.I can’t handle it.”

“My possessive man,” I mutter, leaning down to kiss his lips.“I’m in love with you, but I’m also going to love everyone you’ve given me as a family.”

“I know,” he rasps, threading his fingers through my hair to cup the back of my head.“Now, are you going to let me fuck you or keep talking about my brothers?Because that outfit you have on has had me hard since I walked into that room.”

I grin and pull off my blouse.

GHOST

Punching the man in the face twice, I grip him by the neck and slam him back into the wall.“Who sent you here?”I bark.When he doesn’t reply, I knee him in the stomach.“Tell me!”

He was skulking around the back of the clubhouse property, armed with a gun.I don’t know what he planned to do here, or if he was looking for a weak spot in our security.After catching him unaware and disarming him, I’m ready to take him out back and show him what we do to people who try to come for us.

“A man paid me, I don’t know his name,” the man manages to get out, but I can tell he’s lying.

“Well, I’m sure you’ll soon remember,” I tell him menacingly.I knock him out with a right hook and watch as he drops to the ground.

Grabbing my phone, I call Prez.It’s one in the morning, and I doubt he’s going to be happy.

“Yeah?”

“Got an issue, meet me out the back by the boundary fence.”

He’s silent for a moment.Then a low, “Fuck, all right.Anyone else you want?”

“Bring War, Angel, and the twins.”

He ends the call, and ten minutes later, they all show up.I step aside and show them the man on the ground, who is starting to move.I kick him.“Found him trying to get in.”

The twins share a look.As the enforcers, it’s their job to handle this situation.Angel is our security specialist, which is why I wanted him here too.

“We’ll tie him up in the shed,” Bones announces, the two of them carrying him away.

“Insanity?”War questions, watching them leave.

“I guess we’ll soon find out,” I murmur, pulling out my phone and checking the cameras in my bedroom.Xanthe is still fast asleep, safe and sound.

By the time we get to the shed, the intruder is awake and tied to a chair, so I sit down in front of him.

Skull hands me a phone.“Found this burner on him.Blade is going to try to trace the number.”

I nod and look at the man.“So, are we going to do this the easy way or the hard way?”

“They’ll kill me.”

He looks to be in his mid-thirties and not someone I’ve seen before.I can’t see any visible tattoos, but I’ll check whether he has any MC affiliations.

“And what do you think we will do?”I ask, pulling out my knife from my pocket and unsheathing it.
