CHAPTER TWENTY

The club’s crackling with the need for vengeance Saturday night. I got confirmation from the Wolf Knights’ SAA that if Rock’s getting shit in lock-up, it’s coming from Izzard. Not that what he did to Hope wasn’t enough of a reason, but it’s nice to know we’re taking care of two issues with one beatdown.

Everyone’s at the clubhouse. We put our ad for Swan’s “services” on Craigslist a few days ago. Fresh meat in the Capital Region? Izzard was all over that shit maybe an hour after Z arranged the ad.

I think Hope and Trinity realize something’s up. Neither of them question us about all the activity in the house though. Hope just seems to be relieved Sway and his crew are gone. Trinity knows better than to ask about club stuff.

It’s not a surprise that Hope ends up going downstairs to visit with Sparky. Realizing how hard he’s been taking Rock’s absence, she’s made sure to check in on him regularly.

Trinity shakes her head as she watches Hope disappear through the basement door. “The stoner and the attorney. They’re adorable,” she says with an affectionate smile. Between Trinity making sure Sparky eats and Hope checking on his mental health, at least I know our bud-growing brother’s being taken care of.

It’s good that Hope’s downstairs when Dex and Swan join us in the living room. Swan’s decked out in skimpy hooker-wear and Dex has to be sporting the ugliest pimp suit I’ve ever laid eyes on.

“What the fuck, bro?”

“Gotta look the part,” he explains.

Shaking my head, I usher the guys into the war room for one final review of the plan. They’re solid and I’m confident this will get done quick and clean.

Clean for us. Not Izzard.

“Dude’s a deranged fuck,” Z assures us. He had the pleasure of texting with Izzard to set up the “date.”

“Must be bad if you’re disgusted,” Dex snarks.

Z throws up his middle finger.

“Everyone’s clear on their role?” I ask to get us on track.

After they settle down, we break.

I stop Murphy with a hand to his chest before he walks out. “How’d it go yesterday?”

“Grinder? Okay, I guess. He was upset.”

“So he hadn’t heard yet?”

“No. Thank fuck.” He lifts his chin and all humor drains from him. “You mind if I’m the one to visit Rock and tell him about it on Monday?”

“No. Go ahead. I’m sure he’ll be happy to see you. Figure out a way to let him know we got this situation covered too.”

He holds his fist up and we tap knuckles. “You got it, bro. Thanks.”

“Watch your back tonight. Do me proud, little fucker.”

He breaks into a grin and slaps my shoulder on the way out.

The need to pummel something makes my hands twitch after the guys leave. My broken leg already caused enough downtime this year. I’m pissed I can’t go on this adventure and take care of business for my club.

“Are you okay?” Trinity asks after the guys leave. The brothers not on Mission Izzard are waiting at the clubhouse in case anything goes wrong.
