Chapter Ten

Ryker instinctively moved in front of Fiona. In all honesty he had never cared about protecting anyone but himself. He killed, and that had been the way he lived his life. Growing up in a shitty trailer with his druggie mom and seeing the men she whored herself out to on a nightly basis might have created the monster he was today, but he was never going to change. Yet here was this woman he had just met yesterday, taken her from the shitty little life she had led, and something in him had changed. He didn’t believe in love at first sight, didn’t believe in fate and hope and all that bullshit. He believed in what was right here in front of him, and what was in front of him was a woman that awoke something in his cold, dead fucking heart.

“I knew all about you, Ryker, but hoped you’d be honest with me. And then you were clipped on the phone, hung up on me, and I knew you were lying.” Tricks inhaled from the cigarette he had between his lips. He exhaled slowly. “Bringing the whore back to your place for a little slap and tickle was a stupid fucking move, Ryker,” Tricks said.

“She’s no one that you need to be concerned about.” Ryker glanced out the front door that was still partially open from Tricks coming through it, and saw one of the bodyguards his crazy ass employer always traveled with standing on the porch.

“So what I don’t understand is why you have brought this sweet little piece of pussy to your cabin. I know she lived in the apartment building with that piece of shit junkie, was even affiliated with him, and I know she saw all the shit that went down. She is supposed to be dead right now because she is fucking collateral damage. If you had done your job correctly I wouldn’t have to be here right now explaining this all to you. You’re getting sloppy, Ryker, and all for a piece of cunt.”

“You don’t know anything, Tricks.” Ryker was stepping on thin ice talking to Tricks that way, and although Ryker could take down his employer without blinking, the behemoth outside would slow him down. But then again Tricks was tweaking right now, and that was clear by the bloodshot and glossy eyes he was sporting, and the fact he was pale and sweaty as fuck.

Tricks straightened from the counter he was leaning on and cocked his head to the side. “You telling me I don’t need to concern myself with her?” Tricks started laughing. “Moe, get your ass in here. You gotta see the balls on this fucker.”

Although Tricks was still laughing there was this off look he was sporting. Moe, the big-ass bodyguard that probably weighed a good three-hundred pounds, had a belly on him that stuck out a foot, was bald and wore shades all the time, staggered in. Moe might be strong because of his size, but he was slow, and had no training aside from knocking people on their asses.
