I heard Heather start to say âI love youâ when I left her apartment.
It was the one thing I really did not want to hear as I exited her place. I needed my mind to be on the Anarchists and the Anarchists only. I did not want it, under any circumstances, on anything but those assholes on the east side of Romara. A distracted mind was a dead mind in the middle of combat.
In the hours between that and our ride out, I just went back to the clubhouse and closed my eyes. I never fell asleep, but I relaxed all the same. I thought about how I was going to kill Uncle, how I was going to take Heather on vacation afterward, and how we were going to enjoy each other for a long, long timeâmaybe even forever. Yeah, thinking about her was probably not helping my âdonât be distractedâ mantra, but I figured if I got it out of the way now, I wouldnât think about her when the time came.
And sure enough, as the sound of motorcycles started to pull up about half an hour before the time came for us to drive out, my mind shifted from the happy thoughts of life after Vulture to the tactical, strategic mindset required for the hours ahead.
There was little doubt that this mission would lead to the deaths of some of my men. This was a sacrifice I had to ask of them, but it was one that they all were prepared and willing to make. I think all of us accepted that if we did not put ourselves at risk, we were actually giving ourselves the worst chances of survival in the long run.
At seven oâclock sharp, I went outside to the entire club standing before me. I summoned Parker and Landon to my side.
âI donât need to give any more grand speeches at this point,â I said. âYou know what we need to do. We need to kill Vulture, the entire Anarchists MC, and any living memory of them. Spare no lives, take no prisoners, and eradicate them. Does everyone understand me?â
âYes, sir!â they all shouted in unison.
âParker knows the location, and we are going to follow his lead,â I said. âWe are going to arm everyone with a rifle and a pistol and body armor if we have it. Unfortunately, we donât have enough for everyone, but we will make sure we do everything we can to mitigate any damage. What we are doing tonight will ensure the long-term survival of the club, the prosperity of the club, and the safety of the club.â
I cleared my throat.
âI told you this afternoon to go and see your loved ones and spend time with them. I hope you got that time. Because now, you need to remove them from your mind. Focus on the person to your left, and the person to your right. Your brothers are the ones you are fighting for. Give everything you have to them, and they will give everything to you.
