“My family doesn’t have to be involved.”

“Your family?” Rae shrieked. “I hate you!”

“Rae!” her mother scolded. “Enough! This isn’t the time.”

Rae shook her head, “No, Mom. He did this. We’re in danger because of him!”

I frowned and shook my head at her. Don’t be stupid, I thought, please.

Devlin laughed, “I like her. Why don’t you let me take her and work off some of that debt?” He sauntered over to Rae and hauled her to her feet. “You a virgin baby?”

Rae stiffened as I saw red. Pissed off and ready to jump in any moment, I was fully comfortable with shooting that asshole right between the eyes.

“Don’t touch my daughter!” Rae’s mom stood as Charles pulled her back down on the couch.

“Devlin my stepdaughter isn’t going anywhere. Why don’t I call Striker?”

Both Devlin and Rae continued to stare each other down.

“Answer the question sweetheart.”

“Go to hell,” Rae spat, her cheeks flushing.

Devlin pulled her in roughly and kissed her, right on the mouth.

“Take your hands off me! I’m not some common whore,” she yelled, incensed. Her hand rose as it formed a fist and clocked him right in the jaw.

Fuck. I groaned inwardly. She was going to get hurt. R.J. was gesturing frantically to get my attention. He looked positively livid.

“I like it rough honey. You’re coming with me.”

Rae shoved him back, “Fuck off!”

Devlin smacked her across the mouth, blood spurting from the side as he split her lip, “Watch it girl, or I’ll put that pretty mouth to a different use, and I can guarantee you’ll be unable to talk.”

Rae’s eyes widened then hardened in disgust, “No thanks.”

Charles was calling someone on his cell. A voice answered the phone, deep and cheerful, “How’s it going, Charles?”

“Striker, I’m more than happy to come to the clubhouse right now. No need to hold my family hostage.”

Striker laughed, his deep voice chilled me to the bone as it echoed in the quiet room, “Why would I do that? Surely you could have cooperated long before now.”

“My fault. I was lazy. Forgive me, Striker.”

Devlin was listening to the conversation with interest, but I caught his eyes roaming over Rae constantly, “Boss? Want me to bring in the girl too?”

“Do I need to do that Charles?” Striker let the question hang in the air.

“No, I can come right now. No worries.”

“Dev, bring Charles. Put me on speaker.”

“You’re already on Pres.”

“Sarah and Rae?”

“Yes?” Both women answered.
