Chapter Four

…

Remy

I tore down the hall with the callousness of a charging rhino. I threw a shoulder into the hotel guests that didn’t get the fuck out of my way quickly enough.

With every footfall, my brain told me to stop. To let this play out as it should. I didn’t owe Star anything. She was nothing to me but just another disposable piece of ass that littered the breakdown lane of my road to hell.

Except that, I knew her name.

Star.

It shined too brightly in my mind. There was something behind those defiant, hazel eyes that as much as I pushed away, always pushed back. She was an infuriating pain in my ass, a persistent ache that was always on my mind. An itch in the back of my brain that I just couldn’t scratch.

And yeah, I couldn’t kid myself. She looked a hell of a lot like Maria. Personality-wise, they were radically different.

Ride. Fight. Fuck. There was a beauty in that simplicity.

I was a bad man, I could accept that. These are the decisions I’ve made. The stones I’ve cast. No one had any expectations as to the kind of man I was – just a long dick and a smoking gun, and I was damn good with both.

No one better.

There’d always been a curtain of darkness draped over my soul, but with Star... I could feel pinpricks form in that black fabric. Star’s innocence and fiery defiance threatened to unravel me as I raced through those halls.

I had to get out there before Top or Star was completely fucked.

Before I knew it, the bar room door loomed before me, forcing my brain to warn my body to slow down. If I threw my shoulder into it while running at a full-tilt, the damn door was likely to explode right off the hinges.

Fuck it. I sped up instead.

That door would be just one more thing I’d have to square up with Muse later. My lip curled at the thought of her selling Star out without so much of a thought otherwise. Muse and I would have a lot to talk about.

I barreled in like a battering ram.

Cries of surprise rang out from those who were already awake, and the thunderous clap of the door woke everyone who wasn’t. Guns snapped up at me from nearly every direction but were quickly lowered when they realized I wasn’t a SWAT team storming the place. In all honesty, that was a pretty stupid decision to make, especially with tensions running so high. I was lucky no one shot me by accident.

I couldn’t help, but smile at that.

I fucking loved to make an entrance.

The barroom had turned into a fucking armory. Our stash of reserve weapons were dumped unceremoniously across the bar. Shotguns, pistols, rifles, bats, knives. More tools of death were littered atop that shattered glass and booze-strewn mahogany slab than was locked up at the local police department.

Good.

If the uneasy tolerance between us and the pigs goes ass over teakettle, we were going to need every last piece of this hardware.
