“Jade was nearly kidnapped today leaving her doctor’s appointment.” Viper sneers.
Tension fills the room, and I’ve got a feeling I know why she’d been nearly taken, and it doesn’t sit well with me. Over the past week, I’d spent enough time with Rosemary to know her and become able to read her a hell of a lot better. And if I’m right, she’ll try to take the guilt for this.
Wrecker fills us all in on what happened, and my fury grows all the more. What if Rosemary had been with them? What if they’d actually succeeded in taking Jade?
“It was Dominic’s men,” Rosemary whispers. “I’m sure of it. They want me back.”
“They’re not gonna get you back, baby.” I squeeze her to me and kiss the side of her head. “I won’t let them.”
“Why would they want Viper to come meet them? Why fake being Jade?” Rosemary asks, curling into me.
Her questions are definitely something I’d like the answers to myself. The only way to get them is to go to the address and find out. I’m willing to bet the bastard is still there waiting.
Letting her go, I meet her gaze. “You stay inside the clubhouse. Don’t leave. I’ll be back as soon as I can.” I don’t give her a chance to respond. I kiss her briefly and move toward the door. My brothers following. I don’t need Viper’s phone to look at the address. I swiped Rosemary’s phone and will use it to get the coordinates I need.
“What are you doing, brother?” Cyprus demands.
“Gonna check out the address they texted to Prez,” I answer, straddling my bike. I pull up what I’m looking for. “There’s going to be hell to pay for if I find them still there.”
“Right.” Cyprus grunts, nodding, moving to his bike. “Then let’s go.”
Grinning, I start my bike, revving the throttle and backing out, Aries following suit next to me along with Cyprus, and others.
My gut is churning on this one, and I don’t like it. Not in the least.

Pulling up to the property, I knew I was right. There’s an SUV sitting there, men standing on either side of one of the back passenger doors. It opens just as we park, and out steps the man, I can only assume to be Dominic. He looks similar to his twin brother, and I intend to make him pay for what he did to my woman. Rosemary told me about what he did and how he would flirt and watch her. She opened up to me about the time she spent under his thumb.
I take the guy’s stance in, the smug grin on his face and the way he doesn’t look at any of the other men but keeps his gaze on me.
“I see you got the message,” he says. His voice grates my nerves.
“You attempted to kidnap my ol’ lady,” Viper snarls, stepping forward, getting the guy’s attention. I don’t know when he joined us, but from the look on his face, he’s ready to rip this douche’s head off.
“Is that what I was doing?” He snickers and looks in Viper’s direction. “Let me officially introduce myself. I’m Dominic Rowe.”
“Figured that much out.” I narrow my gaze on the fucker. “Give me one good reason I shouldn’t put a bullet in you right now.”
“Because if you do, my men will give the signal to take out that little clubhouse of yours.” Dominic smirks. “I see with this news I have your attention.”
“What the fuck do you want?” Cyprus demands.
“Well, there’s plenty that I want, but we can start with the fact that I want Rosemary back.”
“That won’t happen.” Interrupting him, I step forward. “You won’t be getting Rosemary back.”
“I will be getting her back.” Dominic’s smirk switches to a malicious grin. “You see, she has several more fights before she can officially be set free. She’s won six so far, and that leaves her with fourteen more. Until those are completed, she’s still my property.”
“Bullshit,” Viper snarls.
“If you do not give her back, then what I do next will be on all of you, and I’m sure she will not appreciate it.”
“The hell does that mean?” I sneer, more than ready to put my fist through the fucker’s face. Better yet, a bullet between the eyes.
“If you don’t know,” Dominic snickers, that grin of his widening, “you might want to ask her. What will I take from her that she cares about most? Ask her and see if she tells you what it seems I know, but you don’t. I wonder if even Jade knows who my Rosemary cares about most.” He moves to get back in his vehicle. “Tell her she has three days. After that, I will come for her.”
The door closes behind him, and I stare after it, unable to think. To figure out what the hell is going on here.
