Blaise looked pissed. “I don’t like her making fucking demands of me.”
Fuck, I didn’t need his ego involved in this. I just needed him to tell Gina what she needed to hear. I would handle the rest.
“Huck, get Kye here with you. Gage, call Saxon. Get his ass here. Then, you’re going with me and Levi. She wants to demand shit from me, then she gets a reminder on how that plays out.”
I glared at my phone, willing it to ring. I needed to get to Aspen. Make sure her heart was okay. I was calling Andrus and getting him here today. He needed to check her out. I’d been fucking sloppy. I should have stayed with her until I was sure the area was safe. I hadn’t even thought to check for anyone that could be watching her. She was mine to protect, and I’d failed her. Fucking Gina had been able to take her.
I ran my hand through my hair and pulled at it as I let out a roar, unable to keep myself calm any longer.
“Deep breaths,” Blaise told me.
I was trying to take fucking deep breaths, but it was hard when my chest felt like a damn vise was gripping it.
“We got an address,” Gage said loudly as he held the phone to his ear.
“How?” I asked.
He pointed at his phone. “Sax.”
How the fuck did Saxon have an address? I watched as Gage listened to him.
“You sure about her? Her brother took Aspen. You understand that, right? He’s a dead man. Get rid of her and get to the underground.”
Gage ended the call, and he looked at me, then at Blaise. “It seems like Sax has been seeing AJ’s sister. She’s with him right now. He believes her, but he’s naive. I trust him, but I don’t trust the bitch. She tracked her brother’s phone with hers, but that seems awfully nice of her. Too nice.”
Blaise looked furious. “Stupid fucker had better be armed. Dammit, he’s too fucking trusting.”
Gage nodded in agreement. “The girl did sound upset in the background. She’s worried about Aspen—or she’s a great actress. She also mentioned that AJ was a Viper.” He spit out the last part.
“Goddammit,” Blaise snarled. “We should have killed Acid.”
“If he had anything to do with this, then I’ll finish that job,” I swore. “I’m calling the hospital for security footage just in case this bitch is lying,” I added, heading for the door. “The other shit I don’t give a fuck about. The rest can wait. I need Aspen.”
Once I had her, I wasn’t sure I was ever letting her out of my sight again. She’d just have to deal with it.
Thirty-Four
Aspen
Slow, deep breaths helped with the pain in my arm. I tried not to wince or make a sound. AJ was pacing like a caged animal while Gina sat in a chair, filing her nails as if she hadn’t broken my arm because I wouldn’t answer her questions about Levi.
“I knew you were crazy. I thought it was sexy. But I didn’t know you were a fucking idiot!” AJ shouted at her. He threw his arm out in my direction. “Did you NOT hear him threaten our lives if we touched her? Because I sure as fuck did! You’re a hot fuck, and you suck my cock like a pro, but, baby, I didn’t agree to die for you. You also fucking failed to mention you had a thing for Levi. Which makes me a damn fool! I wanted you to be free to come and go with me. To not have to worry about hiding you!”
Gina rolled her eyes. “I know what he said, and I also know Levi. I grew up in that world. He’s not going to kill me. Jesus. Chill out.”
“He might not kill you, but he’s gonna want to kill someone. He sounded fucking furious. I didn’t sign up for that shit. Acid is going to be fucking pissed when he finds out I did this, especially for a hot piece of ass. That is if I live.”
Gina stopped filing her nails and looked up at him. “I can handle Levi. Unlike her”—she pointed a fingernail file at me—“I know what Levi wants. I can give it to him.”
My stomach twisted. This wasn’t the first time she’d mentioned the things she used to do with Levi and Gage. It was clear she had preferred Levi. There were things Levi liked that I didn’t think he’d ever let me do with him. Which meant I’d lose him sooner.
“From the way he sounded on the phone, I’d venture to guess she’s doing something for him that he wants to keep. And stop with theputting her downshit. She’s gorgeous. She’s got the wholeporcelain dollthing going for her. Makes a man want to take care of her.”
I could feel his eyes on me, but I didn’t lift my gaze to meet his. Instead, I continued staring at the floor.
“Whatever,” Gina replied, sounding annoyed.
“It’s been almost an hour,” he said to her. “Call him back! He said five minutes. Stop making him wait.”
