If he hadn’t known that Chris was already out to the Disciples, it would’ve been a pretty shitty thing to do, blowing Chris’ cover like that. He wasn’t that much of an ass.

“Have you been watching us?” Chris asked, giving him a suspicious look.

He definitely wasn’t going to answer that, so he just shrugged and gave Chris a wink.

He felt a hand on the small of his back and leaned into it, looking up over his shoulder at Steel. He was wearing his vest now and he had to admit that he might have a leather fetish because damn. His man looked hot in leather.

“Your boyfriend’s a stalker,” Chris said and returned Kai’s wink before walking away and tugging Diesel along.

Kai grunted and when Steel smiled knowingly down at him, he made a face back at him.

“My little assassin stalker,” Steel said all lovingly.

“I am not little,” Kai grumbled.

Steel lowered his head to Kai’s ear and said, “I know.”

A hand squeezing his ass cheek had him cursing Steel because the last thing he needed to be dealing with right now was a damned boner.

“Everyone’s here,” Steel said, keeping his hand on Kai’s ass.

He had a feeling that was something Steel would be doing a lot seeing as they were pseudo-married now. Jesus. He was in love. He was in a relationship. He was happy. Well, as happy as someone about to tell a bunch of biker guys why he had a hit out on him could be.

“Go ahead, Kai,” Ares said with a nod at him.

He turned to face the room and all the curious gazes watching him.

“Well.” Kai cleared his throat. “Turns out you definitely shouldn’t sleep with your boss. Especially if he’s a psychopath who uses you to get rid of his partner and then puts out a hit on you.”

He could almost hear Steel grinding his teeth. Yeeeah, that didn’t bode well for him. Should he have mentioned he used to bone Isaac before now? Probably. Definitely.

Nic on the other hand looked like he’d just gotten the confirmation he’d been looking for. He knew Nic had been wondering why he’d stayed with Isaac for so long and while their relationship wasn’t the whole reason, he understood why Nic had suspected it was.

“Tell us about this boss,” Diesel said.

“His name is Isaac,” Nic said. “We both worked for him.”

Kai nodded. “His partner, Briggs, gave me a job. The mark was a senator. He wanted me to blow him up along with a lot of innocent people. I killed Briggs instead.”

Ares made a surprised sound and gave a slight nod of approval.

“Aw, don’t say you like me now,” Kai teased.

Ares scowled at him. “Don’t press your luck.”

Kai couldn’t help but grin at him.

“Okay. So, Isaac put out that hit on me to clean up his mess because he engineered the whole thing to make me kill Briggs.”

“Jesus,” Diesel said under his breath.

“What an ass,” someone said, and Kai had to agree.

“Why?” Chris asked.

“Why did he want to get rid of me? He didn’t like that I would only kill assholes like him. Guess it hit too close to home,” Kai said with a shrug.

“No. He meant why did Isaac go to all that trouble to hide his involvement,” Diesel said.
