“Royal wants a word with Kacey before he leaves. He thinks he has a plan to take out the mole and the Albanians in one hit.” Kacey and I agree, our moment is ruined and I know there is no way I’m getting fucked before he leaves, so I decide to help him pack. The entire time my nerves are going haywire inside me. There is so much that could go wrong. I have asked him at least a dozen times what’s the plan and how he is going to do this but he just keeps saying, I’ll find out in due time and he doesn’t want me to worry.
How the fuck am I not supposed to worry?
Kacey clasps my hand in his and leads me downstairs to Royal’s office. I’m surprised to find everyone here. My dad stares at our joined hands before flicking his gaze away. I refuse to allow his salty ass mood to affect me for what little time I have left with Kacey.
“Okay, so let’s get to it because I’m assuming we don’t have a lot of time to get shit rolling and into place before this happens?” Royal asks Kacey.
“Yeah. Look, what I can say is we have about four days to get shit into motion. I don’t have all the details but what I do know is Xav, Ro and Benny made a call to loop Owen in on the whole mole situation.”
“What does that mean, Kacey?” Kacey turns to Chaos to answer him.
“It means Owen’s ass has been on the chopping block thanks to Q. The guys made a good call because Owen has managed to assemble a task force to take down the Albanians and Q in one hit, which is why I have been brought back in.”
“How do you tie into all of this?” Dad grits out.
“I am the only agent aside from Quintin that has met Halil. I know both targets and can give a positive ID so all units can move in.” We spend the next thirty minutes hatching a plan. Kacey has agreed to keep us in the loop with everything, and Royal was okay with that so he has tasked Havoc with shadowing Kacey and making sure he is safe at all times, or he is to pull him out.
“Keep my brother safe,” Chaos snarls as we all head out.
“The calling card tattooed on his neck is yours so, if anyone is going to get him killed it’s your own card.” At Kacey’s reply, Chaos snaps his trap closed and scowls. I try to lead Kacey out but he halts me and turns back to my dad. “Vincent, can I have a word?” Silence ensues until my dad nods. Royal begins to usher everyone out. I stay where I am until Kacey looks down at me. “I need to talk to him alone, Sin.”
I shake my head. “No.”
He pulls his hand free of mine, places a kiss to the top of my head and darts his gaze above my head and nods. Royal and Havoc each grip my arms and drag me from the room, ignoring my threats of maiming them and cutting their cocks off.
KACEY
“She won’t take this well, you know that?” I meet Vincent’s gaze and nod.
“I know but if this is the only way to ensure she gets the fuck out of there safely, then I need you to do it.” He eyes me up and down but this time there isn’t hatred, just a form of respect in his gaze.
“You may just make it in this family after all.” My mouth parts as he stalks past me and leaves me alone in my stunned state. Maybe he doesn’t hate me that much after all. I snap out of it and make my way out of the office. I find Havoc at the front door rubbing his jaw and glaring down at my girl.
“You got anger issues!” he seethes down at her.
“Nah, I just got an issue when my cousins think they can control me,” she shouts. Standing here staring at her and the way she holds herself against these large males, is awe inspiring. She may be smaller than them but she is fierce and deadly. These guys know without a doubt that she can hold her own and take any of them on without batting a lash. My girl is fucking incredible.
“Don’t fuck my daughter over.” I jerk to the side in fright and peer down at Carlina, who keeps her gaze focused on Chanel and Havoc as they continue to argue, while Royal slips away quietly and hides behind Erika. “If you hurt her again, Kacey, I will be very upset and believe me, my husband will do anything to keep me from being upset… even if it means killing an FBI agent to make me smile again.”
Jesus, I see where Chanel gets her charm from!
“You have my word. I swear to you, I will never intentionally hurt your daughter, Mrs. Murelo. She is the reason I’m putting my life on the line–”
“Don’t feed me your bullshit. I have five brothers and each of them were once whores until they met their match. Prove your love for her by coming back to her alive.” She doesn’t wait for a reply, walking away without a backward glance.
“Believe it or not, she is the hospitable one,” Chaos jokes from my other side.
“This family is… out of this world,” I say for lack of a better world. “Havoc, let’s go,” I say after shaking Chaos’s hand and nodding goodbye to Royal and Erika. London rushes past me and launches herself at Havoc’s legs, holding him tight.
“Don’t leave me,” she begs. Havoc untangles her and drops to his knees in front of the little girl. Sin walks over to me and huddles into my side as we watch the giant of a man be brought to his knees by a tiny little girl.
“Bellezza,” he says softly as he rests his hands on her shoulders. “I will never leave you. I’ll always come back, I swear.” She may be only nine years of age but she is smart beyond her years. I look over at Royal and Erika. I’m surprised to see a pained look on the brutes face. I know he and London haven’t always seen eye to eye, but I think the cold hearted fucker is more attached to the girl than he wants to let on.
“You better. If I have to come hunt you down and hurt people to get to you, I will.” A proud smile crosses Royal’s face. In some families, her words would inspire parents to seek professional help for their child, but not this one. London fits perfectly into this crazy as fuck place. One day I think she may just be twice as ruthless as her Aunt Nelly, just as cunning as her twin uncles and fearless like her father. This girl is going to rule the world, you can see it already. We all live in London’s world.

Saying goodbye to Chanel fucking sucks ass. Havoc sleeps the whole way back to my place by the docks where we meet my boys. Ro shows Havoc to his room while Xav, Benny and I stay downstairs to go over the plan for tomorrow.
