CHAPTER SEVEN

Alejandro

Two weeks.

I had to be without Elaina for two weeks.

It had been two weeks since I held my son, took care of him, or talked to him.

Three days after I made the phone call to Joey to ask for him to put protection on Elaina, I had to go radio silent. I knew he understood why. But that didn’t mean Elaina fully understood. And even if she did, it didn’t mean she didn’t worry and obsess over me.

Neither me nor Joey could even go to the damn store down the street from the clubhouse without her worrying about us.

But I was finally coming home. And I didn’t plan on leaving for a long time.

The sun was just beginning to break over the trees when I pulled through the gates of the Sons of Hell’s property. The doors opened, and Elaina stepped outside, Joey right behind her.

Fuck. I was hoping she’d still be asleep. She didn’t need to see me like this. I hadn’t even gone to my home in Mexico before coming home to get a shower. I was covered in dirt and blood—a fucking mess. The only reason border patrol hadn’t said anything was because they knew exactly who I was.

They also knew what I was capable of. All of them did. And they also knew I had my fingers in everyone’s pockets, including the president himself. There was no sense in arresting me. It would just be a waste of paperwork for them that would mysteriously go missing anyway.

I sighed as I stared out my windshield at Elaina while I lowered my fingers to press the button to turn the SUV off.

There was no hiding from her—not now. I knew nothing Joey could say to her would get her back inside that clubhouse.

Blowing out a harsh breath, I shoved open the door and stepped out, exhaustion weighing on my shoulders. I needed a hot shower, maybe a hot bath after with some Epsom salt, and then I wanted to crash into bed. I didn’t even have the energy to fuck Elaina like I normally would.

Her hands flew up to cover her pretty lips as soon as I shut the door and she was able to see all of me. Tears welled in her eyes. The sight of them made my chest ache, and a need to destroy whatever was upsetting her rose in my chest, even if that something might be myself.

This was exactly what I hadn’t wanted. She didn’t need to fucking see me like this.

“Little one,” I rasped as I made my way to her. She squeezed her eyes shut. She knew as well as I did that some of the blood was mine. There was no hiding the gash on my forehead, nor the bullet graze on my shoulder. But we’d taken the uprisers out, and I was home now.

She was safe. Our son was safe. That was all I’d ever wanted. They’d stupidly put out a hit on her, too, but I slaughtered every fucker who dared to even try to take the job before I could get it taken down off the site.
