“I trust you with my life and Jaxon’s, Blaze.”

“Then you’ll find out when we get back to the house. I think it’s time we learned some more of Jaxon’s limits.”

“Will I be present for this? Or is this just for you and him?” I don’t think Kane understands how much it means to me that he fully trusts me alone with Jaxon. Especially since he knows what I’m capable of during punishments. I think about it for a second and shrug.

“I want us all to be there.”

“You know you can be with him alone, right?”

“I do, but this has to do with all of us because hedidleave us all.”

“That’s more humiliation than punishment, Blaze.”

“Humiliation is punishment for him. He craves praise. But that’s where you come in. I can’t always give him that, and I think that’s what he needs.”

Kane leans forward in the seat and braces his arms on his thighs. “What do you need?”

I don’t even have to ask to know what he’s talking about. The voices have been out of control, and I don’t even know when I’m talking out loud to them now. They got really bad when Jaxon left and only quieted down a fraction when I knew he came back. I shift in my seat. “I’m fine.”

“Don’t lie to me,” Kane says in a warning tone. “What are they saying?”

“I don’t know,” I say truthfully. “Too many at one time, and I can’t sort them out.”

“Why don’t you talk to me anymore?”

“Because we have enough going on without you having to fucking worry if I’ll finally go insane. I have it handled.”

“I’m never too busy to give you what you need. We’ll handle this together.” Kane sits back in his seat and gives me a look saying not to argue. “After we get Jaxon taken care of, I’ll take care of you.”

I let out a shuddering sigh and lean back in my seat. The rest of the drive is silent; then we pull in front of Lev’s warehouse. I see guards milling around and start getting excited. Only two things can shut the voices up. Fighting or fucking. Since I can’t have the second, I hope one of these assholes decides to argue.

Dalton opens the door, and we slide out. One of the guards’ eyes laser in on Kane, and he runs into the building. “Jackass,” I mutter under my breath.

We walk to the building side by side, and another guard steps in front of us. “You can’t go in here.”

Kane adjusts his jacket and leans in close. “I own this. I can go wherever I damn well please. Step aside.”

“Who the fuck are you?”

I can’t help but laugh. “Are you really that fucking stupid?”

“He’s new.” Lev’s voice carries to us, and he steps around the corner of the building. “What can I do for you?”

Kane doesn’t move from his spot or take his eyes off the dead guard in front of him. “You might want to tell them who really owns you, Lev. Tell him to move.”

Lev chuckles nervously, and I step to the side to look at Lev. “There’s no need to go inside. We just got done taking care of someone. It’s still a mess.”

“Tell him to move,” Kane grits out. “Or I’ll move him.”

“Kane,” Lev reasons. I watch as it registers with the guard who’s standing in front of him. He steps to the side without another word. Kane reaches for the door handle, and Lev snaps into action. “You can’t just walk into my property!”

Kane whirls around, and Lev’s face pales. “I can and I will. Did you suddenly forget that you wouldn’t have shit if it wasn’t for me?”

I pull my Glock out, open the door, and sweep the inside before waving Kane in. Kane steps in behind me and gives me a confused look. The place is entirely empty except for a few crates in the corner. I walk over and pop the lid, only to find liquor bottles. “Look outside,” Kane orders.

I nod and head that way. Except for the guards milling around, there’s nothing out of place. Could Diego have given us bad information? Or was Lev able to move the shipment that fast? Either way, Kane is going to be pissed that we wasted a trip here. I walk back inside and shake my head. Kane turns to Lev. “I got a tip that you received an unauthorized shipment. What was it?”

Lev’s face is still pale, but he pulls his shoulders back, pretending to be brave. All Kane would have to do is jump at him, and he’d shit himself. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Do you have people watching me?”
