As he collapsed, she rolled, smashing her gun butt into his head. Ace ducked behind the SUV as Artemis burrowed under it, and hands grabbed her.
“Ceasefire! Ceasefire!” Barracuda screamed.
Curious, I waited and watched to see what Rage would do. Drake held up his hand, and Rage stopped shooting.
“Get your brothers and go. You broke Parley. No second chance. This is war!” Drake ordered as he rose to his feet.
I covered him instantly.
Barracuda stood too, and my gun moved to aim at his head.
Drake looked up in my direction as a red dot appeared on Barracuda’s chest.
Barracuda followed his gaze and scowled. “Fuckin’ cunts,” he shouted. “Weren’t no fair fight with a sniper in the hills, Drake.”
“Wasn’t ever going to be clean, asshole, when you planned to ambush us,” Drake retorted.
I snorted as Drake showed no sign of knowing there’d been a sniper hiding. I wasn’t the only one hiding up here.
Barracuda spat on the ground.
“Move states now or die fighting a war that’s not yours,” Drake ordered. “That ten miles just became fifteen around Rage. Give Fury the good news.”
Barracuda and his remaining brothers got their wounded onto backs of motorbikes—or onto their own bikes if they could ride—and sped out. Barracuda spat in the dirt in Drake’s direction, who simply narrowed his eyes.
I covered Barracuda until he disappeared.
Drake turned fully towards me and gazed up at my position.
Rising to my feet, I looked down at him as he tilted his head as an acknowledgement.
Then, I sensed motion behind me at my back.
Spinning, I snapped a gun in that direction, and the movement stopped.
A guy appeared from the bushes and stared at me. In one smooth motion, I lifted my Harley, mounted, and kicked it into gear. Loudly, I revved it and sped off. A quick glance as I passed the intruder showed me it was Artemis’s Japanese brother, Akemi. I saluted him and let my bike kick up dust and disappeared.
Slick
“We got trouble.” Apache said, walking towards Drake, who nodded sharply. His eyes remained on the biker and the cloud of dust he’d left behind. Akemi waved his arm and began jogging down the hill.
“He didn’t get him,” Drake muttered.
“Any ideas?” Slick asked.
“Not a fuckin’ scooby,” Artemis stated from the cradle of Ace’s arms.
“Thanks for that save,” Drake murmured and turned his gaze back to the diminishing figure of the biker.
“We got trouble, but also got a friend. I don’t like unknown friends. Give Dylan a call and get some feelers out on the street,” Ace ordered Slick.
Drake’s gaze snapped towards his brothers.
“Anyone hurt?” he asked, receiving head shakes.
“Whoever it was had a fuckin’ fine shot,” Artemis said. “From that distance, they could have easily hit me instead of Tramp.”
“Sniper?” Texas stated.
