“Not so fast little one,” he says, stopping me in my tracks. I just want to hug my dad; I want to look him over to make sure he’s not bleeding elsewhere. I can’t lose him too. I’ve already lost so much.

“Why are you doing this?” I growl, tears streaming down my face.?

“A life for a life.” He simply states.?

“What does that mean? Stop speaking in riddles and make me understand!” I yell. He slaps me in the face and my head whips to the side from the impact. I spin back, narrowing my eyes at him. I wipe the blood from my lip and spit it at him.?

“One day that mouth of yours will be your demise.” He snarls, and I spit at him again. He rears back and punches me in the face. I feel my scar rip in two.?

“Such a disrespectful little cunt. You’re lucky I cannot kill you but keep it up and I’ll go to war just to watch you take your last breath.” He growls.?

Bringing my hand to my face, touching my cheek, I can feel the blood along the scar. I look at my father, who is struggling against his binds. I shake my head at him.?

“Save your strength,” I whisper, hoping he can hear the plea in my tone. If we can get out of here alive, he’s going to need to relax.

“Now that we are done with your theatrics, let’s continue.” He lowers his weapon, and I roll my eyes.?

“Have you not realized yet why I’m here?” He asks, lifting a finger to his lips.?

“A life for a life can only mean one thing. Amelia?” I answer.?

“That’s only part of it. Did you know that I have three daughters and a son?” he reveals.?

“I only know of Amelia” I take a deep breath, getting bored with this conversation.

“Well, Amelia was my oldest, she was gearing up to be the next in line to take over, but your father decided, or better yet, listened to the sheep, and blamed my family for your kidnapping.” He sneers.?

“This is all old news. Can we move it along?” I snap, and he slaps me again.

“Learn your place, don’t open your fucking mouth until I’m finished,” he roars. I narrow my eyes, getting real sick and tired of being fucking hit.?

“Both of my other daughters were stolen from me, one I still cannot find and the other died by your hands along with my son.” He growls, and I raise my brow. Who the fuck did I kill that was Bratva?

“You’re going to have to spell it out for me because I have no idea what you are talking about.” I press. I have killed many people. It could be anyone.?

“Alexis Moore, and D’mitri Edwards,” he says proudly, and I laugh. He narrows his eyes.

“I’m sorry, I don’t mean to laugh, but your kids were having sexual relations, that’s fucking gross. Is that a Russian thing?” I quirk a brow and continue.?

“Lexi was a vile bitch. I did you a fucking favor by sinking my knife into her neck, and watching the life drain from her eyes. Be grateful, she would never be worthy of this life and your son,” I spit at his feet,

“He’s the one who killed your precious Amelia. He didn’t think twice about slicing her head clean from her body. After he kidnapped and raped me, we had a grand old time ripping his heart out from his chest cavity and shredding his head from his body. But?most of all, holding his heart in my hand sucking the blood from his ventricle with one of the men I love, had my pussy dripping.” I grin sinisterly. Before he can rear back to hit me again, I slam my fist into his throat causing him to choke. He drops the gun, coughing, and I pick it up, cocking it and pointing it at his head. He shows me his phone, pressing play and I hear a familiar giggling fill the screen. Jaxon. I gasp as tears fill my eyes. He clears his throat.

“If you kill me, you kill him.” He rasps, and I lower my weapon disengaging it. I take a deep shuddering breath. I will never forgive myself if anything happens to that baby.?

“Now that you told me all this shit, what is it you want me to do?” I ask, getting extremely irritated. He stands and comes up behind me. I brace myself for impact, but nothing comes. He steps into me, wrapping an arm around my waist and lifting the arm with the gun slowly.?

“It’s really simple. You killed my daughter and son, which can’t go unpunished. Your father killed my other daughter, and he must pay his penance for that. So, all I need you to do is,” he raises the gun higher, aiming it at my father.?

“Kill him!” he whispers, running his thumb over mine, cocking it.?

“No! Are you deaf, D’mitri killed Amelia.” I say.?

“No?” he presses play on another video. The boys fill the screen, fighting for their lives. There are too many men. Another video plays of Ryker laying in the hospital bed and a knife at the tube helping him breathe. Tears fall from my eyes. He slides to another, this time of Ryder, bloody and beaten. I gasp, shaking my head repeatedly.?

“No, I can’t. Please don’t make me.” I beg.?

“All it takes is one word from me and everyone you ever loved dies, including him.” He nods to the phone and plays yet another video of Jaxon sleeping in a crib surrounded by teddy bears. A knife comes into view and is held to his neck.?
