As the words left his lips, Mika slung an arm around my waist as Drake released my hair. Spinning me around, Mika pulled me to his chest. Like a herd of elephants, the other Doms rushed down the stairs.

“Which side, Sam?” Max calmly asked, bouncing his gaze off one corner of the building to the next.

Heart in my throat, I watched Ian and James draw their weapons, but quickly lost sight of the pair when Dalton, Nick, Tony, Quinn, Sam, Kellan, Joshua, Law, and Cane surrounded me and Mika.

“Talk to me, Max. Where’s our target?” Dylan asked in the same calm voice as he eased in alongside his former Marine Corps Captain.

“North side,” Max announced as he whirled around and focused on the left corner of the building.

“Go back into the club, now, boy,” Drake barked at Trevor.

“No, Daddy. I want to stay with you,” he begged.

“Get out of here, you two,” Quinn barked at Mika and me as he opened passenger’s side door.

While Drake and Trevor argued, Mika bit out a curse, then guided me toward the SUV. As I wobbled over the uneven gravel, the other Doms moved in closer, reinforcing their circle of safety.

“I said get inside, boy.”

“No. If you die, I’ll die without you.” Trevor’s voice cracked.

Trembling, I clambered into the SUV. The sight of Tristan and Emilia’s car seats sent a whole new wave of panic surging through me. Sending up a silent prayer, I sank onto the buttery-soft leather seat.

“Get down on the floorboard, pet,” Mika instructed.

When I turned to comply, Elliott rounded the corner of the building.

I wanted to scream but couldn’t. The icy hands of déjà vu had me gripped by the throat.

Chapter 9

Mika

When Julianna’s eyes grew wide and the color drained from her face, I knew Elliott had finally decided to show himself.

“Get down and don’t move,” I growled, watching tremors quake her body.

“LaBrache,” Elliott barked. “I got something to say to you.”

Spinning around, I wedged myself between the open door and Julianna’s body as I met his angry glare.

“Then say it,” I countered.

As Elliott began eating up the distance between us, I glanced back at Julianna—who’d blessedly followed my instructions. I didn’t want the son of a bitch anywhere near her. Drawing his attention off the vehicle, and my girl, I stepped out from behind the door and shut it.

While Ian and James moved in close, flanking me, Drake, Dalton, and Max stood together, forming an impenetrable wall.

“That’s far enough, fucker,” Drake barked at Elliott.

The prick stopped, rolled his eyes, and scoffed. “Tell your guard dogs to stand down, LaBrache. I’m not here to fuck you up the ass, though you’d probably like it. I’m here to talk.

Ignoring his insult, I arched a brow. “Then say what you need to say and get the hell off my property.”

“You fucked up when you kicked me out. Fucked up bad,” Elliott said with an ugly smile. “I’m gonna shut your pussy-assed club down, motherfucker.”

“Is that so?” I chuckled.

“I got friends…important friends.”
