“Killing the guy that robbed us?”
Cash and Ralen shared a look that said a lot. She sucked in a breath.
“That actually sounds like something he’d do,” Ralen admitted. “I find that easier to believe than anything else.”
Holy. Heck.
“It’s entirely possible that he’s threatened or taken out anyone who was a risk to you,” Cash admitted.
Her mind couldn’t even compute that.
“Like kill another stalker that she had? Could he make a murder look like a suicide?” Hack asked.
Who was he . . . oh God. DaddyDrew? Seriously?
“I don’t feel so good.” She trembled. Why would this man who didn’t know her do those things for her? She didn’t want him going around hurting everyone who she had a bad interaction with.
“I don’t like him watching her,” Hack said.
“We’ll talk to him,” Cash reassured them. “He isn’t supposed to be watching you anymore. Although I’m grateful he was today.”
Yeah. She guessed she was too.
“How did he find me today?” she asked. “He followed me here?”
“Uh, probably,” Cash said. “He’s probably got some sort of tracker on you.”
Hack started swearing then. “I want to talk to him.”
“That’s not possible,” Cash said.
“Call him. Now. Tell him to come here,” Hack demanded.
Ralen looked at them all, his gaze dark. “We can’t do that.”
“Why not?” Hack asked.
“Because nobody tells the half brother of Dante Diaz what to do and keeps their tongue in their mouth.”

“What?” Aidan said. “How the hell do know Diaz’s half brother, Cash?”
“Because that’s where we’ve been all this time,” Cash replied wearily. “With Diaz and his men. Hiding away from the Devil and praying like fuck that he didn’t go after our families. Sending Ortega to watch over Greer was all I could do. He was the one who could slip into the States. His mother was American, and his other half brother lives in New York.”
She pushed all that information to one side. It didn’t seem important right now.
“Maybe you better explain what happened all those years ago,” Aidan suggested in a voice that said it wasn’t a suggestion at all ,but an order.
Cash sighed and looked over at Ralen. “Ralen and I had been hanging around with these guys. They were low-level members of the Rykers. Anyway, they sent us to scout out this warehouse in Devil’s Kingdom territory to see if we could find anygoodsbeing stored there. We were idiots back then. We thought it was a boring as shit job. We wanted something with glory. But we went along with it.”
“When we got there, the place looked empty,” Ralen said. “So like fools, we just wandered on in.”
“You know those moments that change your life forever?” Cash mused. “That was one of those moments. We were fooling around when a door opened. Both of us dove behind a crate just as two men headed our way.”
“Who was it?” she asked, feeling a bit loopy now. The pain meds were taking away the pain, but also leaving her feeling sluggish and slow.
“We didn’t know. We heard them talking. One of them was in a suit. He was snooty. Arrogant. The other guy had a hood over his head. He was quieter, letting the suit do the talking. The suit was full of excuses about a drug shipment that had gotten raided by the FBI. The guy in the hood spoke then. He said that he paid him to make sure they weren’t raided by the FBI and he asked him who was working with him.”
