Chapter Eighteen

Ethan

“Where did Leo take Holly?” I ask JJ.

He’s the only one still hovering close by. If I could choose one of them to ask, I’d ask Zachery. He’s the most likely to answer me, but he’s still by the door, and I won’t delude myself with thinking the twins will give me anything I want.

“Why do you care? You said it yourself, she isn’t your woman.”

Biting my tongue, I hold back my retort. I just want to know if he’s taking her to get help. I’ve never had full trust in these guys, and today is no different. In the time I’ve spent here, they’ve never let a woman suffer by their own hands, but they don’t trust Holly. And seeing as she isn’t one of theirs, I just don’t know.

When JJ’s phone rings, he arches his brow at me before answering. Turning his back on me doesn’t help hide the one-sided conversation; I can still hear him.

“Brother?”

His shoulders sag, so I expect it to be good thing. “Yeah, okay.” Pausing, he adds, “She didn’t look so good. I’m not surprised.” More silence, followed by, “You did what? Why?” more fucking silence. “Talk to you later.”

He hangs up and stores his phone back in his pocket before turning back to me.

“Looks like the woman who isn’t your woman has an infection in one of her hands.”

“Where is she now?”

“Does it matter?”

“Is she safe? At least tell me that.”

“I don’t think you want to know.”

That just makes me want to know even more. Fucking prick. “Just tell me.”

“Fine. For some reason, Leo has put a claim on her. She’s as safe as any of us right now.”

No! I go to get up, but my restraints bite sharply into my skin, reminding me that I can’t move anywhere.

“He put a claim on her? He can’t do that! Why would he do that?”

This doesn’t make any sense. It’s bad enough I dragged her into this fight, and she’s now deformed because of it. If Leo has put a claim on her, it means he sees something in her she doesn’t want him seeing.

JJ, not bothered at the news, shrugs.

“What’s crawled up the rat’s ass?” Myles calls over, everyone’s eyes on me.

“The girl, Holly, isn’t coming back. Leo claimed her, and he’s keeping her at the club.”

Zachery is first over, and gets in JJ’s face. I watch the two, and JJ, never one to shrink away from anything, shocks me by taking a step back.

“Say that again?”

Holding up his hands, JJ tells him, “I’m sure he has his reasons, brother.”

“What reasons would they be?” he pushes.

“I have no fucking idea, but you know him. He wouldn’t do this out of the kindness of his heart.”

Spinning on his heel, Zach storms to the open doors and steps out, braces his hands on his hips, tilts his head back, and lets the rain assault him.

“If he just wanted to fuck her, he wouldn’t put a claim on her. There’s a reason,” JJ mutters, more to himself, but the twins hear him and smirk.
