Gigi pulls, trying to break her arms free, and I tighten my grip on the band as I look back down at her.

“What does it matter where I heard it? It’s still true. Timber shouldn’t be with someone who spreads her legs for anything with a dick.”

I can’t hold back my laughter with that one. “Wow, and you think you qualify for that since you spread your legs for all his brothers? You really don’t know anything about him.” I shake my head and she scoffs.

“Like you do, bitch.”

Grinning, I yank back harder on her hair. She cries out as she squirms in my grasp, trying to break free.

“Actually, I do. And I know for a fact he wouldn’t take a club bunny for an Old Lady. Now, answer my question for real this time.”

She purses her lips as her gaze bounces from person to person, but no one steps forward to help her. Uncertainty fills her eyes, and I wonder if she’ll actually answer me or not.

“I got a text message a few days ago saying that you were going to get what was coming to you. That you’d pay for taking a club brother off the market. A few hours later, I got a picture of a torso that was practically shredded.”

Dad steps forward and pulls her phone out of her back pocket. He scowls when he finds it locked and takes her index finger on the right hand to press her fingerprint to it. She struggles in our hands, but he manages to unlock her phone.

He fiddles with her phone and then lets out a long whistle before handing the phone to Thor. Thor pulls out his own phone, his fingers instantly flying over the screen. Drae and Sasha head down the hallway that leads to where the bunnies’ rooms are. Seconds later, I hear boots heading toward the door and see Colt, Ethan, and Alexei rushing out of here. Their bikes fire up outside before fading as they drive off.

I thought his face was thunderous before, but the look on his face now is darker and deadlier.

Thor steps forward and grips her chin harshly. Gigi cries out but then falls silent at the look on his face.

“You’re done here, Gigi. We’re keeping your phone too, since it’s a club one. You seriously thought you could pull this shit over on us? Well, guess what? You’re not only done here, but you’re also now homeless.

“You are never to step foot in a Steel Archangel’s establishment again or else you won’t like what happens to you. Now you’re going to wait here while we strip your car of its remote and make sure you don’t have any spare keys you’ve copied to the apartment or your room here. Then you’re going to walk your ass out of here and never look back. Do you understand me?”

Anger flashes in her eyes as her cheeks redden. “Yes,” she grits out.

“Good. And if you ever lay a hand on any Steel Archangel member, which includes Old Ladies and family members of the club, we will rain fire and brimstone down on you. Do you understand?”

The muscle in her jaw ticks as she spits out a ‘yes’.

The malice in her voice sends a shiver down my spine and I know my lockdown timeframe just got longer.

Whatever Dad and Thor saw on her phone was damaging enough to kick her out but not enough to question her further. Which means she might just have a warning on her phone or somehow got information she wasn’t supposed to have.

Regardless, I’m going to have to keep my head on a swivel going forward.

It’s been ten minutes, but Thor doesn’t budge from in front of Gigi, his arms crossed against his chest as he stares down at her. Gigi is still kneeling on the floor and Mae still has ahold of her hair and hands. I hope like fuck that position isn’t hurting her, but I have to trust that she’ll let us know if she is.

I want to know what the fuck he and Smoke saw on her phone but thank fuck Mae knew her injuries were kept hush hush. I don’t think anyone else put the pieces together faster than she did.

A phone dings and Thor grunts before putting his phone back in his pocket. Sasha and Drae come down the hallway and toss two trash bags stuffed full down on the ground by Gigi.

“Take your shit and get the fuck out of here, Gigi. The others have cleaned out your apartment and changed the locks. Your stuff is out by the dumpster. If you don’t pick it up, then it’ll be considered trash.” He levels her a hard look that has her flinching back.

“Remember, you aren’t to set foot in any of our establishments. If you see one of us, our Old Ladies, or one of our family members, you are going to go the other way. Cross the street. Leave the store. But if you ever approach one of us again, we’ll bring the Steel Archangel’s wrath down on you and ruin you. Do you understand?”

“Yes,” she spits out.

Thor gives Mae a chin lift, and she undoes the leather band that was twisted around Gigi’s wrists and let’s go of her hair before stepping back by Thor.

“Now get the fuck out of here,” Thor growls and Gigi scrambles to her feet, grabs the bags, and struts out of here like she hasn’t just been banished.

She sneers at Mae as she walks past her and my stomach knots. Her gaze promises retribution. Dragon and Ryder follow her out, most likely to make sure she actually leaves and doesn’t do anything funny on the way out.

Once the door closes after them, Thor leans in close to Mae and whispers something to her. I walk toward her, but my worry evaporates when I see the wide smile that spreads across her gorgeous face.
