Remi rushes into the room, her eyes wide with fear. “What happened? What did he say?”
“He’s going after them,” I say, a shiver racing down my spine.
“Ace won’t let him do anything stupid.”
But as she reaches my side, taking my hand in hers, I see the truth glitter in her eyes.
Remi knows as well as I do that Ace won’t be able to stop Cole. Someone hurt the people he cares about. Someone hurt me.
Cole won’t stop until Donny Lopez is no longer a threat.
He won’t stop until he’s dead.
Chapter Four
Cole
“Let’s go,” I bark at Ace as I slam the door, cutting me off from where I really want to be.
“W-what?” he stutters, his eyes going so wide I fear they’re about to pop out.
“Let’s fucking go.”
“Cole, I really don’t think—”
“Come with me, or I go alone. The choice is yours.” I stand toe-to-toe with him, waiting for him to make a decision. I could really use his backup with this, but I won’t bat an eyelid about doing what needs to be done alone.
“Fucking hell, Cole.”
“What? If we don’t do something, this is going to get worse. That motherfucker isn’t going to stop until he’s dead and buried, and you know it.”
“No, no, no,” Conner starts, but I tune him out. He doesn't get this, but I know Ace does. I can see his hunger, his thirst for Donny’s blood. It runs almost as deeply as it does for me.
“What if they come for Rem—”
“Let’s go,” he spits before I even get to finish the sentence.
“Ace, what the fuck?” Conner shouts, starting to get a little irrational.
“Conner, just—”
“I’m coming.”
“No you’re fucking not. Stay here. Look after the girls.”
His brows rise in frustration. “You trying to say I’m not good enough for this?” His face starts to turn red with anger.
“No, I’m saying we need someone we trust with them. We can’t leave them here alone.”
He calms a little, but he’s clearly not happy. Not that I give a shit. The fact that that cunt is still breathing means we’ve waited too long to do this.
“What’s going on?” Remi asks, slipping from the room Hadley is inside of.
“Cole and I are going out. We won’t be long.”
Concern washes over her face, but before she can say anything, Ace pulls her into his arms and slams his lips down on hers.
“You trust me, right?” I hear him murmur to her.
