Do what you want with that information.

I don’t know if those bikers will tell you this.

I can’t take that chance and leave everything up to strangers.

Sometimes, you have to make tough choices.

“Oh, Amelia. What did you do?”

I want you to know that I love you.

I’ve done everything I can to protect you.

I know it doesn’t feel that way right now, but this will make sense when the truth comes out.

What the hell did that mean?

Where could she run that wouldn’t put Josie in harm’s way? She would be taking her away from her life, friends, and everything she knew.

Forgive me.

I’ve made mistakes, but I’ve always considered you a daughter.

I love you, Henny.

Well, shit. Tears burned my eyes, and I blinked them back.

I folded her letter and walked to the dresser.

I set the envelope and her letter aside. After rummaging in the drawers, I found clothes to change into.

My fingers brushed something cool and metal as I pulled it from underneath my underwear—a gun.

I stood there for fifteen minutes, debating whether or not to tell Devil, Raiden, and Reaper what I wanted to do. I wasn’t stupid. I knew I couldn’t take on this cult alone. But I wantedrevenge on my terms, and I needed to be the one who snuffed out Jim’s life.

An eye for an eye.

He had to suffer, and it needed to happen by my hand—no one else.

I knew the guys would understand. I wasn’t leaving forever. I just needed a few days to end those fucking nightmares and take control of my life.

Checking to be sure the safety was on, I tucked the gun into my purse, gathered my things, and prepared to leave. Right before I left, I managed to sneak into Devil’s office. The guys were all having church, which made it easy to slip away undetected.

I penned a quick note, placed it on top of the envelope, and snuck out the compound. Just once, I turned back, blowing a kiss to the men who had already claimed my heart.

When I returned, I could finally look ahead to my future instead of running from my past.
