“Why the fuck would he do that?”
“Because Benjy killed that stripper a year ago – remember her?”
“Yeah, so?”
His flippancy about Ali’s death enraged me; for the first time, I wanted to bitch-slap him.
“SO,” I snarled, “besides the obvious point that she didn’t deserve to die – Lou was trying to cover his tracks. He was the one who put Benjy up to shooting her.”
“And why the fuck did he do that?”
Shit.
I knew exactly how the answer was going to go over.
“Because Lou suspected her of being a snitch for the DEA,” I said.
The other three by the door cursed.
Tex shrugged. “Then I’d say the bitch got what she deserved.”
I stared at him angrily. “We turned over a new leaf three years ago, Tex. We said we weren’t going to do that shit anymore.”
He sneered at me. “I think it was also implied somewhere in there that we weren’t supposed to kill other brothers in the MC.”
“Maybe you should’ve told that to Lou before he sent them to kill me,” I snarled.
“I think there’s some things you ain’t tellin’ us, Jack. And I think those things are probably the one bit of truth in all this bullshit you’re shovelin’.”
This was not going how I’d wanted.
“I came here to warn you assholes to stay away for your own goddamn good – ”
Tex ignored me. “Like, who was at your house the other night when Eyeball, Cowboy, and Vince allegedly decided to torch the place?”
“Allegedly’s a big fuckin’ word for a guy who doesn’t use ‘ASAP.’”
“I guess it was on that Word of the Day calendar, motherfucker,” Tex said coldly. “Was that whore from the Roadhouse there at your house? That private eye bitch?”
My hands tightened into fists. I was glad my gun wasn’t within easy reach, because Tex would be a dead man if it was.
“Her name’s Fiona, and don’t talk about her that way,” I snarled.
“Was she there or not, Jack?”
“That has nothing to do with – ”
“WAS SHE FUCKIN’ THERE OR NOT?” Tex roared.
I glared at him. “Yeah. She was.”
The reaction from Lee, Fishbone, and Indiana was less than positive.
“Uh huh,” Tex drawled. “And have you been in contact with Sloane and the Bastards lately, Jack?”
Now I stared at him in shock.
Did Lou tell them EVERYTHING that’d been going on?
