The gunfire stopped.

Silence was somehow worse than the chaos. I pressed against the wall panel, trying to control my breathing, my heart hammering so violently I thought it might break through my ribs.

How long had I been in here? Minutes? Hours? Time distorted in the darkness.

Then I heard it. Boots on concrete. Multiple sets. Moving systematically through the clubhouse.

"Clear the back rooms. Find the girl."

The voice was unfamiliar. Cold. Professional.

Not Damien. Not his brothers.

My hands trembled as I fumbled for my phone, but I had left it on Damien's desk. Stupid. So incredibly stupid.

The footsteps grew closer. Someone was in the office now, boots crunching over broken glass. I held my breath, pressing deeper into the cramped space behind the wall.

"She was here. Blood trail leads this way." A pause. "Check for hidden doors. These MC rats always have bolt holes."

Panic seized my throat. I searched the darkness for another exit, finding nothing but solid walls on three sides

    I woke to the smell of expensive cologne and leather seats.My head pounded. Nausea rolled through me in waves. I forced my eyes open, immediately regretting it as fluorescent light stabbed through my skull."Easy now. The chloroform takes time to wear off."That voice. I knew that voice.Richard sat across from me in what I slowly recognized as the back of a luxury car. His perfect hair. His perfect suit. That practiced expression of concern that had fooled me for two years."What did you do?" My words slurred. "Damien—I saw him—""Shot. Yes. Quite dramatically too." Richard leaned forward, elbows on his knees. "Victor has excellent aim. Your biker is likely dead by now."The words hit like physical blows. Dead. Damien was dead."No." Tears burned my eyes. "You are lying.""Why would I lie? It is over, Flora. This ridiculous rebellion ends now." He reached for my hand. I jerked away. "Come now. We have a wedding to plan."Rage cut through the grief and drug haze. "You think I will ma

    "A weapon?" The word tasted like ash. "What are you talking about?"Damien released me, pacing the small office like a caged predator. "Marcus Ashford has been secretly funding the Savage Kings for months. Real estate deals, money laundering—he provides the clean front while they do his dirty work.""That is impossible. Richard's father is a legitimate businessman—""Is he?" Damien spun to face me. "Think, Flora. How does a developer acquire prime real estate in contested neighborhoods without problems? How do his projects never face union issues or delays?"My stomach turned. "The Kings intimidate people for him.""Exactly. And in return, Marcus helps them expand their territory. Our territory." His fist slammed against the desk. "They have been systematically destroying everything we built. Now I know who is behind it.""So what does that make me? Bait?""Leverage." A knock interrupted him. "Come in."A man entered—older, with silver threading through dark hair and cold authority in

    "Step away from her, Cross." Richard's voice shook despite his attempt at authority. "This does not concern you."Damien's laugh was dark, lethal. "Everything about her concerns me now." His eyes never left mine. "What is it going to be, Flora? The cage or the fire?"Richard's grip on my hand tightened painfully. "Flora, be reasonable. This man is a criminal. My father can have him arrested within the hour.""Try it." Damien's hand moved to his waistband, and I saw the glint of metal. A gun. "See how that works out for you."The associate reached inside his jacket. Damien's weapon cleared leather first, aimed directly at the man's head."Do not." The command was soft, absolute. "Unless you want your brain decorating this elevator."Everyone froze."Flora, listen to me." Richard pulled me closer, using me as a shield. "This is who he really is. Violent. Dangerous. Is this what you want? A life of running and hiding?""Better than suffocating in yours." The words ripped from somewhere d

    "Room service. I have towels for you, miss."My heart hammered against my ribs. The hotel room suddenly felt like a cage. I grabbed my dress from the floor, pulling it on with shaking hands."I did not order anything.""Complimentary, miss. Hotel policy."Lies. Everything about that smooth, practiced voice screamed lies.I backed toward the bathroom, my phone clutched in my hand. Should I call Damien? The police? My mother?The lock clicked.They had a key.The door swung open, and a man in an expensive suit stepped inside. Not hotel staff. His cold eyes swept the disheveled room, landing on me with predatory satisfaction."Miss Winters. Your fiancé has been very worried about you.""Get out or I will scream.""Please do not make this difficult." He closed the door behind him. "Mr. Ashford simply wants to talk. He sent me to bring you home safely.""Richard sent you?" My voice pitched higher. "He does not know people like you.""His father does." The man's smile never reached his eyes

    His mouth crashed against mine with bruising intensity.I gasped, and Damien took the opportunity to deepen the kiss, his tongue claiming mine with raw possession. His hands gripped my waist, lifting me effortlessly until my legs wrapped around him."Last chance, Flora." His voice was rough against my lips. "Walk away now or I will not let you go.""I do not want to go."Something feral flashed in his eyes. "You have no idea what you are asking for.""Then show me."He carried me to the bed, his strength absolute as he laid me down. The mattress dipped under his weight as he braced himself above me, his leather jacket straining across broad shoulders."Take it off," I whispered, tugging at the zipper.His hand caught my wrist. "I give the orders here. Understand?"Heat flooded through me at the command in his tone. I nodded, unable to form words."Good girl." He released me, shrugging out of the jacket. His shirt followed, revealing a canvas of ink and scars. "Now your turn. Let me se
