CHAPTER
TEN
BURNER
My heart clenches in my chest as Ally relaxes in my arms. Sheâs never slept well, and I should have thought about it and would have if I hadnât had a stick stuck up my ass.
Iâve been a complete ass toward her recently and I need to show her that I mean it when I say I want her with me.
Better yet, I need to prove to her just how strong of a woman she is. Show her the strength she has within her. If I can get her to see exactly what I see in her, maybe Ally will learn to love herself the way I love her. And I do love her, more than Iâve loved anyone.
Does that mean Iâll give up my plans to take Miguel out? No. I intend to have that fuck die by my hands, to give Janey the vengeance she deserves.
Closing my eyes, my mind roams back to when Iâd had the chance to put a bullet in Miguelâs head, yet Iâd allowed him to escape. Stupid as it was, I wanted more time to torture him, to get the answers I need to officially let the ghost rest. But until he can be found, Iâll do what I have to do to protect the woman in my arms. The woman who consumes everything that I am.
The beeping of my phone draws my attention from my thoughts as I unwrap myself from Ally and, without disturbing her, I slip from the bed. Moving toward the door, I pull my phone from my pocket to see itâs Hades calling me.
Great.
Swiping my finger across the screen, I answer. âSheâs fine,â I say without giving any other greeting. I know what my brother is calling about.
âIâm sure you think that, brother, but if my sister is anything like she was when we were kids, sheâs not,â Hades grumbles.
âWhat do you mean by that?â I ask.
âMeaning she holds everything in, suppressing it deep within herself. Hammer and I have been going through the journals since getting to the clubhouse,â he states. I can almost sense the pain radiating off him through the phone. âWe should have gotten her to talk about this well before now. I fucked up. Allyâs gonna explode soon and when she does, itâs not gonna be pretty, Burner.â
âHades, brother, you wanna explain that in a way I can understand? What makes you think sheâs gonna explode?â I ask.
âThe way Ally wrote some of these, especially the most recent ones, tells me sheâs not letting it out completely. Furthermore, with her holding that letter away from all of us, wanting to sacrifice herself to this Casimir fucker, it tells me my sister will explode. When she does, it wonât be pretty. Just be prepared, brother,â Hades says way too fuckinâ softly for my liking.
âIâll be here for her when it happens, Hades,â I state reassuringly, although I want nothing more than for him to tell me more of what he knows. Itâs killing me that theyâre going through Allyâs personal thoughts and Iâm not there to do it myself.
