Gio was right. I had to tell him something.
“A rival club, the Black Vultures. They are from Tennessee. Their V.P. Jekyll wants her. He’s had a hard-on for her for years. He had her for a small-time not long ago. He…he…”
Gio held up his hand. “No need to explain. I understand. Is he the reason your club wants her protected?”
“Sort of. Like I said earlier, she is the sister to one of my brothers, club members. He can’t protect her right now because he’s doing something else. Reaper asked me to look after her since I’ve been taking care of her since we got her back.”
Rubbing the back of my neck, I continued, “Gio, I can tell you this because I know how you feel about this subject. Layla was kidnapped out of her apartment over eighteen months ago. She was taken by human traffickers and then sold or traded back to the Vultures. When her brother rescued her, she never talked. None of us know what really happened to her, but our Doc knows she was raped. For the last month, all she did was sleep. She has these terrible nightmares. With the shit going on in the club, Reaper thought it would be best if I got Layla out of dodge for a while. Someplace where no one could ever find her. That’s why I chose you. Nobody, not even Reaper, knows we are related.”
“I will protect Layla. You have my word on that. But as for the other, you are playing a dangerous game, cousin. Your President isn’t a man who likes deception. I’ve heard rumors of how he handles that. What are you planning to do when Reaper finds out you are famiglia? Though I don’t think you or Dwayne are worth it, you are still famiglia, and I can’t have some club President kill you. Aunt Daniella would kill me, and that’s not including what my own mother would do to me.”
“Reaper told me to do what I had to, to ensure that Layla stayed hidden and safe. That’s why I called you. You’ve always been looking for an in with the Golden Skulls. Well, now you have one.”
“And your President will agree to this?”
“He won’t have a choice.”
