Page 40 of Fighting Rosemary

Now, with my adrenaline pumping, I’m ready for the fight to happen.

The doors creak open, and I expect to find Dominic coming down the stairs only to find someone else altogether. The man looks sharp in his suit, but I can also see the calculation in his gaze as he comes toward me.

“I see you’re ready for tonight’s events,” the guy states, watching me closely, hands in his suit pockets.

“What’s it to you if I am or not?” I ask, cocking a brow.

“None of us are fond of Dominic, and we know the details of tonight’s fight regarding you going up against him. I also know that when it’s over, someone has to take over. That will be me.”

“And who the hell are you?”

This guy seems cocky, nearly as unpleasant and annoying as Dominic the douchebag.

“My name’s Izaiah Cordova. I was one of Enyo’s silent partners before Dominic killed her to take her place,” Izaiah remarks, watching me with assessing weird colored eyes of his. “I simply wanted to come speak with you before the fight and let you know that should you all succeed, Rosemary will be free, and there will be no retaliation.”

I want to believe that’s true, but I have a feeling there’s more to it. For now, though, I’ll take him at his word if he gives it. “Simple as that? This will be done, and you’ll leave our club alone?”

“I have no problems with your little club,” Izaiah remarks, shrugging. “Far as I see it, you all are pissants who aren’t even on my radar. You stay out of my business, and I’ll stay out of yours. This fight club will belong to me, and you all will not interfere with it.”

“My brothers and I don’t want anything to do with the damn thing,” I inform him, completely ready to leave so I can finish preparing for the fight.

“Then you have my word. We will leave you to it if you survive the night.” Izaiah doesn’t wait for me to respond. He turns back in the direction he came from and makes his way back out but stops at the door. “By the way, your woman looks radiant tonight, and if you ever want to give her up, I’ll surely like to be considered in her being handed over to me. I wouldn’t mind her in my bed.” He smirks over his shoulder at me.

Fucker.

For that alone, I should kill him, but I know he’s goading me, and I won’t let him. The club’s already got enough on its plate we don’t need more.

Time passes slowly as I watch men come and get one of the others one after another. None of them come back, which tells me all I need to know. My brothers are kicking ass with each match. I can hear the shouts and cheers in the crowd. It’s loud enough to vibrate the walls.

By the time the last man is taken, I’m more than ready for this shit to get over with. I want to see my woman. Hold her in my arms and sink my cock inside her. My dick misses her as much as I do. I haven’t had the time to enjoy her body as much as I want to. For that matter, a lifetime wouldn’t be enough. Sliding inside Rosemary’s pussy is one of the better thoughts that have kept me sane.

After I kill Dominic tonight, I’m dragging her ass out of here and taking her somewhere so neither of us will be bothered while I spend a few days fucking her until I fuck the memory of these weeks out of my head.

An hour passes before one of Dominic’s men comes in, his beady eyes watching me closely. “You ready to die?” he asks.

I don’t bother answering him. I get the feeling he’s got something planned before I even get in that ring tonight. Dominic is nothing more than a weaselly dickhead who can’t do shit without having someone else helping him out first. I’m willing to bet the fucker doesn’t even take a piss without someone else holding his dick for him.

I stay alert of the man behind me, waiting to see what he’s going to do for his boss, but he surprises me when he doesn’t.

My eyes find Rosemary in the crowd as I’m shown to the ring, and I give her a wink, letting her know everything’s gonna be okay. Next to her is my brother, and fuck if it’s not good to see him there. From the look in my woman’s eyes, I don’t see the hauntedness that had been there, though she still looks upset with the way she’s got her arms crossed over her chest.

Surrounding her are the rest of my brothers, a few of them looking worse than others. I jerk my chin up in acknowledgment and refocus on the bastard I intend to kill within the next two minutes. Five minutes tops. This shit ends now.

Dominic’s goon behind me shoves me forward, and I turn on him, throwing my fist in his face and sending him to the ground. I return my attention to Dominic as I climb into the ring and sneer.

“You ready to finish this asshole?”

“It’ll be you that dies tonight.” He smirks.

“Is that so?” Cocking a brow, I roll my shoulders and prepare for the fight to begin.

“Yes, I do. I’ve waited long enough to finally have what’s mine.”

The fuckhead is delusional.

“Enough of the bullshit talk,” I grunt. “Let’s get this over with.”
