BRENT

The sound of shouting and banging wakes me from a troubled sleep.

Hands down, today was the worst day of my life. Finding out in the same breath that my little girl was both kidnapped and pregnant was terrifying. I honestly don’t know how to wrap my head around the second part. My baby is having a baby.

More banging ensues, and I can’t take another second of it. If this shit wakes Haliee up, I’m going to kill everyone. Her and the baby need to rest, for fuck’s sake!

As soon as I open the door, Dimitri’s voice is the one I hear over everything else. “Open the goddamn door, Kristen!” he shouts.

Everything in my body snaps to attention. Grabbing the gun I keep under my pillow, I make my way quietly down the hall.

“Kitten, come on. We’re sorry!” one of the brothers whines. I think it’s Liam.

I round the corner, holding my gun up in case I need to shoot them to save my daughter’s best friend. Just because he seems to be on our side at the moment, doesn’t mean I’m going to be able to just forget all of the hell he’s put us through for over a decade.

“Go. To. Hell!” Kristen shouts, making me smile. That girl has so much fire in her.

“What the hell is going on out here?” I ask, snapping more than I mean to, but fuck, I’m exhausted.

Donovan turns to see the gun first. “Whoa,” he says, holding up his hands at the same time Dimitri and Liam turn toward me.

“For fuck’s sake. Can people stop threatening to kill me today?” Liam grumbles.

“Liam, shut up. He’s not going to kill you, he’s protecting Kristen,” Dimitri snaps, levelling his eyes with mine. “Isn’t that right, Brent?”

I raise an eyebrow at him before shrugging. “That depends. Why are you banging on her door and causing a commotion in the middle of the night?”

Kristen shrieks on the other side of the door, and suddenly I think I need a drink. “They’re not going to hurt me, Daddy Brent. They’re just mad because I refuse to let them in. They fucked up,” she tells me through the door.

“For fuck’s sake. Don’t tell me,” I groan, looking between the three of them. Yeah, there’s no mistaking the look of possession and lust in their eyes. “I need a fucking drink.”

Lowering the gun, I glare at the three bastards in front of me. “Shut up and stop making so much noise. The girls have been through enough today, don’t you think?”

Seriously, am I the only one with a brain around here? They were both kidnapped. Haliee found out she was pregnant, and Kristen found out that her father is being blackmailed and his life is in danger. It’s been a long fucking day without any of this shit.

“Oh no,” Kristen cries before the sound of furniture being moved comes through the door. “Poor Haliee!”

The door flies open, almost knocking Dimitri clean over, and I can’t help but smile at that. Bastard deserves a bit of bad karma.
