Nate gazed at me for a few seconds and then shook his head. “I trust Addie. I’m behind you, whatever it is.”
I smiled and gave him hug. And silently hoped he remembered that when it was time.
I asked my father to leave the house thirty minutes before people started to arrive. He didn’t like it, but he agreed.
“Where’s your father?” Lucian asked when he walked through the door. He looked around the foyer. “Haven’t been in here in a long time.”
“He stepped out.” I shrugged. “But he’ll be back in time for the meeting.”
I led Lucian and his men into the Study. One of his men had to guide Reggie into the room. He had walked around this house a million times and now he was bumping into walls and tripping over himself. They guided him to the back of the room and sat him down. I almost felt sorry for him. He looked so helpless. He was helpless. But the feeling would pass.
Nate walked in a minute later. I was unwrapping Reggie’s bandages. I wanted the family to see him.
“Damn, Addie,” said Nate as he stepped further into the room, his eyes fixed on Reggie.
“Why do people keep saying that to me?” I scoffed, shaking my head.
Lucian laughed.
Reggie did look horrible. The congealed blood in his eye sockets were disgusting and could turn any stomach. His ears were the same.
“Hey Addie.” Kent strolled into the room and stopped short when he saw Lucian.
I turned to Lucian. “Go wait in the kitchen, please.”
“Yes ma’am.”
“Wha—” The rest of the men appeared behind Kent.
“I’ll explain everything when everyone is seated.” I looked everyone in the eye. “No firing. Lucian Sky is here on my request.”
“Got it,” Kent said, slowly nodding as he took in the scene.
The men filed into the room one by one and sat down. My father was the last one to enter. He tried not to look shocked but failed miserably. I supposed that nothing I did shocked him anymore.
“I know many of you didn’t want me to take over the Kingsley family, and no one was more vocal about it than Reggie here.” I placed my hand on his shoulder and felt his body flinch. “I’m sorry you felt like I wouldn’t be able to handle it, but I would like to assure you that I can.”
“You did that to him?” asked Petey, unable to take his eyes off Reggie.
“I did. Reggie was the reason the Sky family stopped being our allies. He watched and recorded three men rape Lyla Sky.” I let out a deep breath as I paced the room. “And I have the sneaking suspicion that he was the one who tried to kill me.”
“That first part was never proven,” said Kent.
“I saw the video.” I looked him in the eye. “And the men admitted it…when they were getting their dicks removed. That’s how we got the name of the third man. You can’t really see his face in the video.” Then I placed my hand on Reggie’s shoulder. “And Reggie here was the one who recorded it and told the men what to do. He watched it all.”
Nate, Big Bob, and Joe placed the three flaccid penises on the table and everyone in the room gasped. A few of the men pushed their chairs back away from the table.
“I will run this family when my father dies and if you put your dick somewhere it doesn’t belong, I will add you to my wall of dicks. Cocks? My cock wall? Yeah, that sounds better.”
Kent stared at me, his jaw slack as he nodded to Reggie. “Why didn’t you just kill him?”
“Because I wanted you to get the point.” I shrugged. “For one, I’m not to be fucked with. Two, I have no problem torturing people. This was oddly fun. And… what do you think the third point is?”
“You’re the boss?” answered Kent.
I shrugged. “Underboss, but you get the idea.”
I walked over to the kitchen door and opened it. Lucian stepped back into the Study. Some of the men gasped while others reached for their weapons. But I held my hand up, stopping them all.
