Chapter ten
Once releasing my wrists Hound kisses the tender skin. My first instinct is to knee him in the balls and run, but Iâve been running to and from trouble all my life. Iâm tired of running. I know he means what he says. This man will do anything in his power to give me a lifeâ¦a love worth fighting for. Its only that Iâm torn between my loyalty to the Harlots and my desire to reach out and take hold of the pretty picture heâs painted in my head. This isnât just about me and what I want. Other lives hang in the balance. Hound can promise me whatever he wants, but it doesnât mean that Carlos wonât blow it to bits.
Heâs not a man who accepts defeat.
He wonât take this lying down. Being given Mona and territory in exchange wonât matter. The disgusting asshole wonât appreciate being slighted.
âYou should be with Zoe, or a woman like her.â The words fly from my lips before registering with my brain.
âWhere the fuck did that come from?â
I turn to my side and stare at him. âYou want a life that I donât know if I can give. This stuff with Carlos. Itâs going to be ugly.â
âHas nothing to do with Zoe. She made it clear I wasnât the man she wanted in her life. I wonât lie and say I didnât want to give it a go. I was prepared to step into her life and take on her and her girls. She called it quits and then you blew into town, and I knew that we never woulda worked in the end.â
âYouâre a simple man. I know that. Being with me isnât easy. I have a lot of baggage. Plenty of trouble following me.â
âYou came here. Knew you could count on Viking and his brothers to take your back. Iâm one of those men. Darlinâ, no one has ever loved you like me. Stop making up dumb excuses and trying to talk me off you. Ainât gonna happen. I know the score. Know the price. Iâm willing to pay it tenfold if I get you in the end. So what. North Carolina Harlots lose their foothold. The bitches who want to pick up those pieces will. Sanchez is gonna take them out one way or another. Might as well get what we can out of it. Mona is fucked. Even if Sanchez doesnât want her, sheâs done. Know you feel some sort of way about her and your club, but babe, if the situation was reversed, sheâd give your ass up no question.â
Deep down I know heâs right. Only person who had my back down there was Rosie. âTell Murder to reach out to Rosie.â Her name burns on my tongue, but heâs right about all of it. I made my choice the moment I left town. Rosie made hers the second she covered for me.
âGet cleaned up. I got a couple calls to make.â He squeezes my hip. âYou even think about running and Iâll tan your ass.
