“We’re looking…there’s…”his man started.

“What the fuck?” Ben snarled.

Nick snapped his head up at the sound. “What is it?”

“I just got a goddamn text from a private number…there’s been an explosion.”

“Wait!”his man’s voice cracked through in the background.“Wait, WHAT THE FUCK!”

Crack!

Crack…crack…crack crack crack.

I flinched at every sound. Panting breaths consumed me. “What is it?What’s happening!”

“Nick!” Rossi roared.“Get the fuck out of there NOW!”

Crack!

I stared at the phone on the counter, but the screen was dead now…the call disconnected.

Crack!

“What the fuck?” Nick snapped as a blur of movement came in the corner of my eye from behind me.

I spun as Tobias whirled around, and found three men dressed in black and wearing balaclavas striding toward us with their guns raised in the air.

Crack!The shot rang out as Caleb lunged sideways. Tobias was savage, pushing in front of me, protecting me with his life as the men spread out, each one of them going for my brothers. But it was the middle one who shifted the gun in his hand, taking aim at Tobias’s head.

Until Nick unleashed a savage roar, vaulted clear across the kitchen counter, and kicked the gun from the attacker’s hand.Crack!The shot went wide, hitting the counter next to me. There was a second where Tobias jerked his gaze to mine, then found the bullet hole, then turned back to the asshole.

“You fuckingbastard!”he screamed and lunged, driving his fist into the black mask.“You almost hit her!”

Thump!

Thump!

Crunch!

Rebel’s savage snarls came from around the corner of the dining room. Her black lips were curled back, and rage shone in her midnight eyes. She lunged at the attacker as he lashed out at Nick, sinking her fangs into his leg. He bucked with the pain, kicking out. But there was no way she was letting go. If anything, she held on even tighter, thrashing her head from side to side.

“The fuck!”Nick’s gunman screamed.

They were an unmerciful blur of fists and balaclavas and a savage pup who was my brother’s protector. I shoved away from the counter and stumbled backwards as all three of my brothers fought for our lives. But I wasn’t running.No fucking way…I was done with that…I wassofucking done. I rounded the edge, moved into the kitchen, and grabbed one of the butcher knives from the block instead, then turned back to them.

They were here to abduct me...

No. They were here to killthem…

I gripped the knife tightly and plunged back around as grunts and snarls and the sickening sounds of fists on flesh followed.

“Shoot thismotherfucker!”one of the attackers roared.

Nick was throwing fists, then swept out his leg to take the gunman down. But he was so focused on Tobias that he took a fist to the jaw. He stumbled backwards, then went down himself, while the other man went for Tobias’s wounded leg.

“I’m gonna kill you!” Tobias roared.“I’m gonna fucking kill you!”

Crack!
