Caden gave me a look that I interpreted as he wanted me to take Tyler’s keys, so I took them and smacked a kiss on Tyler’s cheek.

“I’m driving.”

“Anything for you,” he grinned, grabbing my chin and pulling me closer to kiss me hard.

There was the faint taste of whiskey on his tongue, telling me I’d made the right choice in taking the keys.

Once I’d gotten him in the car, I turned to Caden. “Meet you at home?”

“I think we should travel as a group,” he said carefully, glancing at Tyler through the window. “Especially when he’s going to be useless if you run into trouble.”

“You don’t know how to shoot anyway.”

“You barely do either. Want to drop him at home with the guys and we can go to the range or something? Might be a good idea to get some practice in. Skeet might meet us.”

“Skeet was stupidly busy today. He mentioned something about a meeting with the Devils this afternoon too.”

“They’re being nice to each other now?”

“I don’t think so. They’re just more worried about the Kings and Soldiers instead of each other at the moment,” I said dryly, pulling my phone out. “I’ll call D. He might want to come with us.”

The phone had barely rung twice before Diesel answered, concern in his tone. “Everything okay?”

“Yeah, nothing’s wrong. Holloway wants to learn to shoot and we were considering going to the gun range. I know Skeet’s busy, but did you want to come if you’re not with him? I’m not that good yet so teaching Caden probably isn’t a great idea,” I sighed, eyeing Lukas and Jensen as they walked out of the main doors.

“I didn’t go with Skeet, no. He took some of the others. I’m already at the range with a few of the guys. I can come and get you if you need me to.”

“We can drive. I’ll get him to drive so I can keep an eye out,” I promised. “We need to drop Ty at the house first. He got fucked up at school again.”

“Text me when you’re on the way. Call if you run into trouble,” he ordered, and I promised we would before hanging up.

“Is he okay?” Jensen asked dryly, making us all look at Tyler, to find him laughing at something on his phone.

“I think so. You guys are just hanging out at Holloway’s, right? Can you stay with him?” I asked, and Lukas frowned.

“Why? Where are you going?”

“We’re meeting Diesel at the gun range. With all the chaos, I want more practice, and Caden wants to learn to shoot. Ty obviously can’t come if he’s fucked up,” I answered with a wince.

“Yeah, we’ll game at the house or something,” Jensen nodded, and I smiled a little as he slipped his hand into Lukas’. It was obvious Lukas was nervous about it, but he didn’t pull away.

“Thanks. We’ll bring Ty there and get changed out of our uniforms.”

We all split up, and Tyler chatted to me the whole drive, telling me all about the things he wanted to do to me when we got home.

He wasn’t happy when I told him I was dropping him off and leaving him with Lukas and Jensen.

Caden and I got changed quickly once the guys had dragged Tyler off to play games, and I made sure to bring my gun, wanting to get used to my own weapon.

Josie was still at the main office and wouldn’t be home until tomorrow night, so we climbed into the Challenger and drove towards Pine Valley without delay. She would have tried talking us out of it.

There was a red car that stayed behind us most of the drive, but they kept their distance and turned off to head towards Lake Rowland, making the anxiety inside me calm. Every car was a threat, and I made sure to keep my eyes on our surroundings until we arrived at the gun range.

Diesel was waiting outside for us, relief on his face when he had his eyes on us.

“No trouble?” he asked as we climbed from the car and locked it.

“Nope. We had a car behind us most of the drive, but they turned off to Lake Rowland,” I explained, following him inside.
