“I like it. Wear it tomorrow and bring it with you. I’ll kiss it straight off you,” Slick ordered and kissed her one more time before getting to his feet.

“Tomorrow, baby, don’t eat,” Slick stated and, with a heart filled with regret, walked away. It was one of the hardest things he had done to date.

As he reached his bike and sped off, Slick’s attention turned to the Venomous Fangs. Those fuckers would pay for interrupting the best date of his life.

As he wove through the streets, he allowed his anger to seep into his bones. He had finally found something precious and was enjoying himself, but those jerks had to ruin it.

Slick growled as he hit the highway and raced towards Black Hawk.

Pipes roared, and a quick glance told him that Gunner and Savage were behind him. He pumped a fist and put his foot down. There wasn’t much time to spare. Jace and Arturo had to have been pinned down for at least twenty minutes, and Black Hawk was a ten-minute ride away. He planned to make it in five. Luckily for him, Summer’s garden centre was on the closest side to Black Hawk, which had cut travel time down.

He parked his bike on Valley View Drive with Savage behind him. Gunner had taken Merrit Road, which also led into Quarry Road. They’d seen Calamity turning into it ahead of them, and Gunner waved to say he’d back Calamity up. A quick glance told Slick that he and Savage were the first to arrive on this street.

“You armed?” Slick demanded as Savage parked next to him.

Savage sent him a derisive snort and opened his cut before pulling a weapon.

“Stay back and cover me,” Slick ordered, and Savage nodded.

Slick wracked his mind for what he could recall of this place. He knew there were derelict warehouses towards his end of the road and guessed Jace and Arturo would be in one of them. He moved forward, using the parked cars as a shield. Ahead, he could hear the revving of several bikes, and he popped his head up and saw the Fangs moving in circles and aiming at a building.

As abandoned as this street was, nobody would have called the cops. Plus, the BHPD wasn’t exactly like Rapid City’s. Rage didn’t have a contact there. Slick aimed at the closest Fang and waited for Gunner’s signal. The sharp whistle echoed, and Slick popped his head up and fired.

Seconds later, Gunner repeated his action, and two Fangs fell.

The others immediately began evasive actions as shots were fired from the building that they had been aiming at. Slick felt some of the tension in his gut ease as someone was still alive. They’d got there in time.

Slick aimed his gun as two bodies ran from the building wearing cuts. He took the first, but the second spun and, using his buddies’ body to protect himself, aimed at Slick.

To avoid being hit, Slick hit the ground and rolled behind the car as Savage dived into an entranceway of another building.

Savage’s hand came around the protective wall, and he fired blindly, making the Fang dive for cover. Those on bikes began firing back, and Slick cursed as he realised that half aimed at him, and the other half aimed in Gunner’s direction.

Two more Fangs fell as a bullet from Savage hit its mark, and somebody in the building got a headshot.

“Let’s get out of here. I told you we’d been here too long,” one of the remaining Fangs yelled.

Two of the injured limped to their motorbikes as Savage and Calamity laid down the cover for Gunner and Slick.

Slick rolled back to his knees and took aim at one of those hurt and brought him down a second time. Slick’s head flew up as a familiar black Harley rode past him. The rider had one hand raised and was firing steadily at those on motorbikes. Slick leapt out from behind his car and laid down covering fire for Siobhan.

This time, the bitch wasn’t escaping.

There was a roar of a powerful engine, and a black SUV sped around the corner, brakes squealing. Hanging out of the window was Davies firing into the middle of the Fangs.

Savage took Slick’s right side as they both fired around Siobhan.

She hit her brakes and slid her bike sideways, still shooting. As soon as the bike was stopped and she had a foot on the floor, her second hand pulled a gun, and she laid down even heavier fire.

Slick raced towards her as Fangs dropped.

Dylan Hawthorne had joined the fight, shielded behind his car door as he fired into the diminishing group of Fangs. More pipes roared, and from behind Gunner came Drake, Ace, and Rock.

Slick swivelled his head, and Gauntlet, Jett, and Blaze appeared, too.

Bullets were flying, but not for long. Without cover, the Fangs dropped easily.

Slick raced for Jett, who was closer. He sensed Siobhan was ready to make a break for freedom.
