Ronan's POV

I crossed the room in three strides, and she met me halfway, throwing herself into my arms with such force we nearly fell. I caught her, held her tight, felt her shaking against me like she might fall apart completely.

“I’ve got you,” I murmured into her hair. “I’m here. You’re safe.”

“You actually came,” she gasped, a mix of laughter and tears in her voice. I thought—I didn’t know if you’d get my messages, if Margaret would help, if…”

“Shh.” I pulled back just enough to see her face, using my thumbs to wipe away tears. “We got everything. The photos, the evidence. And we’re getting you out. Tonight.”

“How?” She looked toward the door, fear flickering across her face. “The guards, the cameras…”

“I’ve taken care of it. The cameras are on a loop, and the guards are busy. We only have about twelve minutes before anyone realizes you’re missing.”

“Twelve minutes,” she repeated, and something fierce lit in her eyes. “Okay. Let me just grab…”

“No time for packing,” I said. “Just

  • Claimed By The Biker Kings: Their Forbidden Queen   CHAPTER 83 – IS NICK GUILTY?

    Ronan’s POVTwenty-three hours into the forty-eight-hour deadline, and the Nick situation had gone from complicated to absolutely fucked.“Run that by me again,” I said to Blade, staring at the financial records on my screen with growing unease.“The payments to Nick’s account came through a shell company,” Blade repeated. “Three layers deep, routed through offshore accounts. Someone went to a lot of trouble to make it look like he was being paid by Hart’s people.”“Meaning?”“Meaning either Nick is guilty and very sophisticated about hiding his tracks, or someone set him up and is very sophisticated about framing him.”I pulled up the phone records next. “And these calls?”“Spoofed. The numbers trace back to burner phones purchased with cash, used once, then destroyed. Whoever made those calls didn’t want to be identified.”“So we have financial evidence that might be fabricated and phone records that are essentially worthless,” I summarized. “What about the tracker? You said Nick ha

  • Claimed By The Biker Kings: Their Forbidden Queen   CHAPTER 82 – WE SHOULD GIVE HER BACK

    Alina’s POVThe silence was the worst part.I’d cried myself into exhaustion, my throat raw, my eyes swollen, my chest aching from the force of sobs that had torn through me like a storm. And when I finally stopped—when there were no more tears left, no more energy to sustain the breakdown—I waited.Waited for the knock on my door. For Jaxon’s gruff voice demanding I let him in. For Maddox’s gentle persuasion through the wood. For Ronan’s calm logic explaining why isolation wasn’t the answer.But nobody came.An hour passed. Then two. Then four.The compound settled into its nighttime rhythm around me—muffled conversations, footsteps in hallways, the distant sound of bikes in the garage. Life continuing like I hadn’t just shattered completely in front of the three men who claimed to love me.Maybe that was the problem. Maybe once you broke in front of people, showed them exactly how damaged you were, they realized you we

  • Claimed By The Biker Kings: Their Forbidden Queen   CHAPTER 81 – MAYBE YOU NEED TO LEAVE?

    Alina's POVAll three of them exchanged glances.“Honestly?” Ronan said. “I think the evidence is compelling but not conclusive. I think there’s a chance he’s being framed, but also a chance he’s just a good liar. We’ll know more after forty-eight hours of investigation.”“And if he’s guilty?” I pressed.“Then he dies,” Jaxon said simply. “And you’ll have to accept that, Alina. You can’t save everyone. Sometimes people need to face consequences for their choices.”“I know,” I whispered. “But not before we’re sure. That’s all I’m asking. Certainty before execution.”“Fair enough,” Maddox said. “But you should know—Tommy’s not wrong about everything. People are getting hurt because of you. Not your fault, not your intention, but it’s happening. And some people are going to blame you for that no matter how logical or fair or just you try to be.”“I can live with that,” I said, even though I wasn’t entirely sure I could.

  • Claimed By The Biker Kings: Their Forbidden Queen   CHAPTER 80 – WE FOUND OUR LEAK

    Alina's POVTommy stood at the center of the room, his expression serious, while several other Serpents including Ghost and Viper surrounded a man I recognized as Nick. He was a lower-ranking member responsible for logistics. “What’s going on?” I asked, feeling a sense of dread.“We found our leak,” Tommy said, his voice cold. “Nick here has been feeding information to Hart’s people. Bank records show payments, phone records show calls to known associates. He’s the one who planted your tracker, who told the Vultures where to find your car, who…”“No!” Nick interrupted desperately. “I swear, I didn’t—someone’s setting me up! Tommy, you know me, we worked together, I would never….”“The evidence is clear,” Tommy said flatly. “You betrayed us. Betrayed her.” He nodded toward me. “For what? Money? Some promise of protection?”“I didn’t do it!” Nick was crying now, hands bound behind him, looking terrified and trapped. “Please, you have to believe me. Someone’s f

  • Claimed By The Biker Kings: Their Forbidden Queen   CHAPTER 79 – LOCKDOWN COMMUNICATIONS 2

    We walked back inside together, my muscles aching in that satisfying way that said I’d actually worked. Patricia was waiting, ready to resume the torture of trial preparation, but I felt more centered now. More capable.Less like a victim and more like someone who could fight back.Two Days LaterI was reviewing deposition transcripts in the war room when I heard raised voices from Ronan’s office. Normally I’d ignore it—the Serpents argued constantly about operations and strategy—but something about the tone made me pause.“….can’t believe they got that close,” Ronan was saying, his voice trembling with anger.“She’s supposed to be safe here. That’s the whole goddamn point.”“We’re working on it,” Blade replied. “But the Vultures are getting desperate. They’re throwing everything at us trying to….”“Trying to get to Alina’s friend,” Ronan finished. “Trying to use Chloe as leverage. And they almost succeeded. Do you understand what that means? If they’d grabbed

  • Claimed By The Biker Kings: Their Forbidden Queen   CHAPTER 78 – LOCKDOWN COMMUNICATIONS

    Alina’s POVI stared at the tracker in my palm, its tiny red light blinking like a malevolent eye, and felt the world tilt sideways.Someone on the inside had been tracking me. Someone we trusted, someone with access to my belongings, someone who’d walked beside us through this nightmare while secretly feeding information to people who wanted me dead.“Ronan,” I called out, my voice surprisingly steady despite the panic clawing at my throat. “Ronan, I need you. Like now.”He appeared within seconds, Maddox right behind him. Both took one look at my face and went on high alert.“What happened?” Ronan demanded.I held up the tracker wordlessly. I watched their expressions shift from confusion to understanding to cold, lethal fury.“Where did you find that?” Ronan asked, his voice deadly calm.“My jacket. Someone texted me anonymously, told me to check the lining.&r
