“Then, fuck it. Let’s call this shit off,” Cage says once more. I shake my head and grab the other gun off the table, shoving it into the holster under my cut.

“We’re not callin’ off shit. I’m doin’ this,” I announce. If they don’t like it, I don’t give a shit at this moment. I will do this one way or another, and if I’m right, Pierson will need me now more than ever. If she went back to prove a damn point, they will eat her alive. No, I have to do this.

“Fuckin’ hell!” Cage’s voice thunders through the room. I ignore him. I have to. I’ve already decided about this; there is no turning back now.

“This is it. You ready?” I ask, looking at the other guys. They share a glance letting me know they’re not ready, but that’s too damn bad. This is what it is.

“If this is what you want,” Cage finally says.

“It is. If she went back, she’s gonna need help gettin’ out of there,” I tell him.

“You think she’s that stupid? To go back?”

“She’s tryin’ to keep me from goin’ in. Yeah, I think she’d do it.”

“The girl has a death wish,” Twitch mumbles. He wouldn’t be wrong at this point. If she went back in there for me, she definitely has a death wish. They will kill her after they torture her, and we all know it. How could she do it? How could she put herself in that position?

“You’re probably right.”

“She’s willin’ to give her life for yours,” Ridge says as I nod.

“Looks that way.”

“Then we get her ass back,” he adds.

“Sounds like a plan to me,” I tell him as I shift from foot to foot. I don’t like knowing she’s there with them or that she could be hurt. Far too many things are running wild in my head, and none are good.

“You okay?”

“My girl took off. Do you think I’m okay?” I ask, looking at Ridge.

“I get it, brother. I do.”

“No, you don’t. She wasn’t yours, Ridge. She was mine,” I snarl.

“I know, brother. I don’t know what to say here.” No one does. What the hell could you say? She took off, trying to protect me. I get it, I really do, but it was a stupid move I’ll have to fix.

Anger claws at my insides as I think about what they might be doing to her. I can’t even think straight right now. I want blood. All I can see is red, and I know if I don’t calm down, I will ruin this whole operation. And I can’t have that. I can’t fuck this up.

I take a few deep breaths and close my eyes as the guys talk around me. When I open them, I see Cage staring right at me.

“If your head isn’t in this, we call it, Tarek.”

“My head’s in it. Trust me. I’m just pissed she did this,” I tell him. He nods and glances at the other guys before looking back at me.

“Then let’s do this,” he says. I walk out of the main room and toward the front door. Mask and his guys wait outside for us. I fist-bump the guys before climbing on my bike as they watch me. It feels like the end is coming, and I don’t know why. Hell, maybe it is.

I take another deep breath before pulling my helmet on and glancing at my brothers one last time before riding out of the parking lot.

This is it. I’m on my way to handle a problem. I’m on my way to find my girl and figure out how I will get her out of there.

My heart beats rapidly as I make my way through town. So many thoughts race through my mind. Is she okay? Did they already hurt her? Did she really go there? She must have. There is no other explanation for why she left. Pierson did this for me, of all people.

When I get her back, I will make her little ass pay for what she’s done. I’m going to make her regret ever running from me.
