Liam

I got as far away from the alley as I could. I didn’t trust myself to look at Amy. She betrayed me. She sold me out to the Lynches—the harlot!

How could I be so stupid? How could I fall for a cheap whore like her? She never cared about me. She never wanted me. Fuck! Dean Lynch sure had my number. He knew exactly what bait to use to get me to bite that hook.

I locked my teeth and refused to look right or left. I kept my eyes fixed on the points of my shoes sweeping in front of me. Right. Left. Right. Left. Nothing else mattered but putting as many miles between me and that slut as possible.

I rounded the grocery store and hopped into the Jeep. I hit the gas and screeched out of town. I didn’t give a damn for the law. No one could do anything worse to me than Amy just did.

The Lynches! She was working for the Lynches the whole time. All those dainty smiles of hers, all those casual glances—Christ, what a colossal shmuck I was!

I peeled around corners and nearly skidded off the road motoring up the Ridge toward home. At least I still had that. At least I still had my Clan. I caught her before she did us any real damage. The worst that could happen was the Lynches would all show up at the tannery at midnight tomorrow and I wouldn’t be there.

As things stood right now, Pop would want to attack them instead. He would roust out all the boys and we would convoy down to the tannery, probably long before dark. We would stake the place out, and when the Lynches showed up to do their dirty work—kaboom!

The thought gave me some consolation, but that meant punishment only for the Lynches. They would pay for trying to trap me, but it let Amy off the hook. I couldn’t think of any punishment bad enough to retaliate for what she did to me.

I ought to kill her, too. I ought to hunt her down and put a bullet in the back of her head. That would be a kindness. If she worked for the Lynches once, she would do it again. She might develop a vendetta of her own against me for dumping her the way I did.

I regretted showing myself to her. Now she possessed a secret she could use against me. She might be able to harm the Clan with that.

On second thought, Dean might have told her all about me beforehand. He might have used the information to threaten her. He might have told her not to cross me, or I would destroy her myself.

If I capped her, I might as well cap her old man while I was at it. He couldn’t survive on his own without her. I would have to put him down to stop him from suffering, and I already knew I couldn’t do that.

I couldn’t kill Amy, either. Whatever she was, I still cared about her.
