ALEC

I was shaking by the time I got back to the kitchen. Kash had done it again. Even after putting a stop to us, after agreeing we had to stay away from each other, his first instinct had been to shield me from the police. I didn’t think he’d have been able to deter them had they’d come for me, but that clearly hadn’t stopped him from trying.

However…

Aggravated battery… What did that even mean?

“I… The police just took Kash away. In the middle of the club,” I stammered, and Cam lowered his head, hiding his eyes from view.

“Yeah, I’ve been waiting for that.”

I grabbed his shoulder. “Why? If he defended himself there’s nothing they can pin on him. And battery… Isn’t that basically saying he threw a punch?” I’d say he even threw more but didn’t say that out loud. I wanted to go and help him, get him away from the police.

The door banged open behind me and when I turned I saw Gage standing in the doorway, shoulders vibrating with fury. I cowered without realizing it, and his expression softened. “Cameron, take Alec home. Now. The bar is closed today and will most likely be tomorrow, too. I’ll call you. Get out of here, now. And… Stay in.”

That was directed at Cam, and when I glanced at my friend, he just nodded.

“Kash would never throw the first punch, Gage. I’m very sure that he didn’t—”

“He did, and so would have anyone else. You know what? Maybe it’s better if you know. Maybe that’ll make sure you’re careful. It’s your father causing trouble. Kash is behind bars because he beat up your father. And yes, he threw the first punch but I’m pretty sure he had a reason to. I’m also sure the claims brought against him are all fake. However, we don’t know what your father wanted but, by the way K-Ass reacted to the talk, I’d say it was nothing good.”

I grabbed the counter, my head swimming. I should have known. Hell, I had and had just hoped it wasn’t true. “Why didn’t Kash tell me?”

“Because he wanted to protect you, and I’m thinking that’s a smart idea.” Savage’s voice came from behind Gage and I hadn’t even notice him enter. “Bar is cleared, I locked the doors, Xane is wiping everything down,” he reported. “I’m off to the station now, see what I can find out.”

Gage briefly nodded at him over his shoulder. “I’m coming. Wait for a second.” His eyes leveled on me again. “Don’t do anything stupid. You know, like go to the station or whatever. You’re not gonna make it easier on Kash. Let the grownups deal with this.”

Shame and fury seared through my veins. I wasn’t a goddamn child anymore. Before I could say something though a hand on my elbow stopped me. “Alec, you shouldn’t be in a bar, even if you only work in the kitchen. Being anywhere near police when you’re this upset won’t settle anything. Besides, you said Kash and you weren’t a thing any longer… Let’s just go home.
